Brownstone Pizza has some serious coglioni to open just a few blocks down from the iconic Casa Bianca, but if you don't feel like waiting for an hour, it's a good alternative for a very East Coast style pie. Lots of people get the giant $2.95 slices, but if you've got two or more people, just get a whole pie. It looks approximately as large as a kiddie swimming pool, but the thin and pliable crust allows origaming each slice into an edible packet, and you'll want two or three slices each. It's best right out of the oven, and while there's nothing revolutionary about it, it approaches the satisfying New York-style interplay of flavorful cheese and crispy yet floppy crust that people are constantly going on about. Plus, the red-sauced pasta dishes are hearty and ample, they're starting delivery soon, they take credit cards and are working on a beer and wine license. The room's not fancy, so the best bet could be to sip some wine at Colorado Wine next door, where they allow you to bring in a pizza to go with the wine.

hey, interesting blog. anyways, i'm from singapore and will be going to LA in june. so which restarant's will you recomend that i cannot miss? zer0er@hotmail.com thanks.
Kudos on bringing up brownstone, they are amazing. The owner is the sweetest lady ever, if you call and they are to busy they will call you back, before they took credit i forgot my plastic and she let me pay her for a whole pie next time AND it may just be as good as Casa. BUT be aware they close at 9 which is rough for all you night owls. Having lived here only 8 months i love your blog buddy!
yay! thanks for the Brownstone mention! personally, i like it much better than Casa Bianca and they owners are suuuuper nice. the pizza is delish and the crust just perfect...I can't wait until they get something on the walls though...
