Bub and Grandma’s Pizza Is Serving Los Angeles’s Best New Slices | Eater LA

"At the heart of York Boulevard’s busiest stretch, this new-wave slice shop from the folks behind beloved deli and bakery Bub & Grandma’s opened to hours-long lines and backs up the hype with some of the best thin-crust pizza in Los Angeles—order ahead or be prepared to wait. Start with a cheese slice—there’s nowhere to hide—and you’ll get bright tomato sauce tempered by dried herbs and a sourdough tang throughout; wisely, they don’t claim New York style, as the pie is a little puffier with a tart crust that yields rather than shatters. The Crispy Greens specialty pie is compelling, its bite of pickled chiles playing well with red pepper pesto, then finished with a salty layer of prosciutto breadcrumbs. Salads and starters are more interesting than a typical corner pizzeria: the Roman-style fried rice balls (supplí) sell out quickly, while the chopped salad with radicchio, pickled peppers, and beans makes a crunchy consolation prize. For now the dining room isn’t open and sidewalk seating is scant, so expect a line and a wait—but the slices will quiet anyone who still doubts LA is a pizza town." - Ben Mesirow
