"A pizzeria on the other side of the restaurant owned by Peter Garland; owner Jackson Kalb received a photo of his space showing the structure intact but said it’s likely the space sustained smoke damage and that he isn’t sure of the current status." - Mona Holmes
"Is Pacific Palisades a pizza haven now? No, but it’s nice that the neighborhood has some options. Jemma is a tiny shop from the same people behind Jame Enoteca and Ospi, and a good option if you’re seeing a movie with the kids next door and need sustenance before enduring 90 minutes of Minion jibberish. The medium-thick crust is charred and bubbly and toppings range from aged provolone and pistachio to pepperoni and roasted pineapple. Go with the vodka with spicy fresno chiles, basil, and burrata if you’re feeling indecisive." - team infatuation

"Jackson Kalb debuted Jemma Pizzeria in November 2023 as one of the rare newcomers to the Palisades." - Mona Holmes
"I note that chef and restaurateur Jackson Kalb’s new spot, Jemma Pizzeria, opens on January 11 in the former Rocaspace in Pacific Palisades at the Palisades Village development owned by Rick Caruso, and that it will serve personal-sized pies using the same dough and sauce recipes developed for Kalb’s Hollywood restaurant Jemma." - Cathy Chaplin
