La Sorted in East Hollywood serves up mouthwatering focaccia sandwiches and standout slices, elevating the local pizza scene with fresh flavors and creativity.
"Ordering by the slice is the true test of a great pizzeria. While puffy Neopolitan pies have their place in my heart right alongside crisp-edged Detroit-style pies, most of the time I’m looking for a quick slice that’ll make for an affordable lunch or snack. Luckily LaSorted’s, one of LA’s best pizzerias, has added a second location in Chinatown to its repertoire, making it easier than ever to grab a slice or two. My go-to is the Upside Down Mamba, a cheese slice flipped on its head so the sauce is on top, while the melty cheese forms a salty layer between the tomato and the bread. It’s a don’t-knock-it-until-you-try-it situation — I like it more than the classic cheese. If not near Chinatown, check out the original slice shop in Silver Lake. — Rebecca Roland, editor" - Eater Staff

"LaSorted’s Pizza is one of several vendors taking part in the Summer Social Club, an outdoor pop-up series hosted by Employees Only in West Hollywood. You can find everything from Filipino rice bowls to Metztli tacos here throughout the week, but the absolute star is LaSorted’s. This tiny pop-up started out on a porch in East Hollywood in 2020 and now cranks out tremendous wood-fired pizza with chewy, bubbly crust and toppings that range from burrata to artichoke pesto. There isn’t a bad pizza on the menu, but the hot pepperoni and honey-topped “Spicy, But Oh, So Sweet Boy” should be a priority. It’s well-balanced and also extremely fun to say out loud." - brant cox, brett keating
"We first became obsessed with LaSorted’s brick-oven pizza during their limited run as a pop-up in 2020. Currently, you’ll find them at a takeout window in Silver Lake. Maybe it’s the brick-and-mortar digs, or the power that comes with being so close to Dodger Stadium, but the latest iteration of LaSorted's (like Lasorda, get it?) has earned a place in the LA pizza pantheon as well as our stomachs. The crust is perfectly chewy and bubbly, and toppings range from burrata to artichoke pesto to giardiniera. Our top pick is the “Spicy, But Oh, So Sweet Boy,” a version of the now-ubiquitous pepperoni and hot honey combo set off with Fresno chiles and fresh garlic.
