"Named after a Bruce Springsteen lyric, Little Dynamite (Kyle Lambert and Courtney Glowacz) offers naturally leavened pan-style pizza — what they call New Jersey 'grandma' pizza — with crisp-edged tomato pies, stinky uglies (aka garlic knots), and Sunday farmers’ market specials; after starting out on Washington Place in March and worrying whether the neighborhood would embrace them, the owners found Mar Vista folks to be friendly, which they credit, along with their own warmth, for the shop’s local success." - Karen Palmer
