"You had big dreams of getting to The Grove early for dinner before your movie, but now the previews are on and you’re still in the parking garage. Bee-line to Friends & Family Pizza for some quick nourishment. Run by the same people behind the reliable East Hollywood bakery/cafe, this pie counter on the far west side of the market serves classic, NYC-style slices that are hot, ready, and in your hands within 30 seconds. The sourdough crust is thin and crispy, and toppings such as sausage and rapini or pesto-roasted tomatoes (our personal favorite) are plentiful and well-distributed across each slice. If you aren’t in a rush, they also sell full pies, too." - Brant Cox
