Prime Pizza now open on Santa Monica Boulevard in West LA
By Kerry Slater
One of Los Angeles’ most popular pizza spots has opened a location in West LA, described by a prominent pizza critic as the “number 1 pizza in LA I’ve had, hands down.”
As reported by Eater LA, Prime Pizza is now up and running at 12219 Santa Monica Boulevard. Currently the operation is takeout only Tuesday to Saturday from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.. Next week, however, they will open for lunch hours and soon after begin delivery service.
“We make our dough in house every day and let it rest overnight to develop the taste and structure it needs. We use Grande cheese from Wisconsin and shred it ourselves to get that perfect melt. Our sauce is made with local California tomatoes, salt and oregano. No fillers. No Gimmicks. Just pizza,” reads the restaurant’s website.
Prime Pizza entered the national spotlight recently when Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy gave the pizza an 8.1/10 rating, calling it the best pizza he has ever had in Los Angeles.
“This is my number 1 pizza in LA I’ve had, hands down,” Portnoy said.
The restaurant has three other locations in Little Tokyo, Burbank and Fairfax.
