I try to put reviews into a context. This one: a pizza place for n a large airport. Is it overpriced? Of course... It's in an airport. Is there an extensive wine list, and lots of beers on draft? No... It's in an airport.
So, sad, here I am on a Saturday afternoon, flying home from a week teaching in Thailand. Exhausted, starving, with a few hours to kill while waiting for my connection on the final leg. I'm in terminal four at LAX, and there are not a lot of options. This is the best one. They have a lot of different things on the menu, but the name of the place is Sammy's woodfired pizza, so I'm in going with woodfired pizza. I ordered the New York style, which has pepperoni, sausage and mushrooms. I'm a stickler for good crust and good toppings. While this wasn't exactly like the New York pizza this I've had in New York, it was pretty good. Maybe a little too much cornmeal on the crust, but that's a personal thing. But they used fresh sautéed mushrooms, good sausage... Not that pre-crumbled crap you buy from food service companies... and good pepperoni.
Maybe four stars is a little high, but three stars is too low in my opinion. But would I stop here again for the pizza and a beer next time I'm stuck in terminal four? Heck yeah!
