"The wood-fired pizzas from Pizzana in Brentwood (there’s a location in Weho, too) are neighborhood favorites for a reason: The crust is springy, chewy, and full of flavor, and the toppings are applied with an appropriately heavy hand. You’ll be happy if you go traditional and get a funghi or margherita, but we also endorse trying something different - the basil-breadcrumb-covered Neo is one of our favorites, as is the Cacio E Pepe. They’ve also got some of our favorite gluten-free pies in town. Order online for takeout or delivery." - brett keating
