  1. the pasta isn't as good as pizza though.
  2. Great rustic stone fired crust; Unusual but very tasty toppings!
  3. They have one of my favorite pizzas here.
  4. The food was amazing!
  5. The pastas are surprisingly good too (I say surprisingly b/c many pizza places tend to serve 2nd rate pasta, and it's not like it's that hard to cook al dente...)
  6. Finally, decent pizza with some organic ingredients!
  7. Wild mushroom pizza is great!
  8. apparently, if you don't want sauce on your very small, cold pizza, it's an extra $3 charge (plus delivery charge).
  9. My favorite pizza
  10. The food at the Pitfire is so good.
  11. The ingredients are always fresh and they use an authentic brick oven - yes it does make a difference.
  12. Bad delivery pizza, bad manager
  13. all the pizzas are delicious, all baked in the brick oven in the restaurant.
  14. Folded pesto chicken also very tasty.
  15. their fresh ingredients and the oven are the secret to the one of la's best pizza!
  16. Their chopped italian salad is also delicious but quite small for the price.
  17. also was a huge fan of the fresh arrugula, which is a rare ingredient in the pizza world, being placed on the pizza after it was cooked.
  18. the veggie is so delicious i gotta get it here everytime.
  19. Great pizzas
  20. The ingredients are fresh as can be and the staff is quite attentive.

  24. Pitfire pizzas are very tasty and full of flavors as they are baked in a brick oven and they are made with fresh ingredients.
  25. They had the best panini sandwich and bbq chicken salad we could have ever asked for.
  26. My favorite of the Pizzas is the Margherita which has the perfect cheese tomato ratio (I also like to add roasted garlic.)

  1. also was a huge fan of the fresh arrugula, which is a rare ingredient in the pizza world, being placed on the pizza after it was cooked.
  2. wasn't a huge fan of the Veggie b/c each vegetable (squash, zucchini, eggplant, etc) is too large per a slice.
  3. Their chopped italian salad is also delicious but quite small for the price.

Great thin crust artisan pizzas!

by NightOwlK

I wrote this review while I was at Pitfire staring at their giant oven while salivating. But of course Yelp doesn't allow Blackberry users to write reviews on mobile Yelp so I am writing it now!

Date: Friday, November 5

Time: 6:20ish

Last time I came here for happy hour it was right as it started so not that many people were here yet! This time it was right in the middle of the dinner rush, little kids were bumping into strangers waiting in line, business men were in line with freshly loosened ties, cute girls were working the counter with bubbly personalities, and people in their early 20's were ordering pitchers of beer!

After I put in a order for a pizza, I sat at the counter and watched the chefs toss the pies and do their magic of sprinkling on fresh ingredients. There is no case here with pre-made pizzas waiting for you, all the pizzas and other dishes are made fresh in front of you.

While waiting I met (one of the?)owners, a sweet patient handsome guy in his mid 30's/ earrrrly 40's named David.

We had a good conversation after he found out I ordered a pepperoni pizza that "we weren't going to have pepperoni on the menu you know"

Thank god they do!!!!

The way the pepperoni smells as it fizzles and intertwines with the other smells of the basil and other goodness.

"We get it from this guy up in San Francisco at a place Zoe's meats"

On top of that they have a happy hour annnd they take the KCRW Fringe Benefits card!!!

The two flat screens playing movies like Hook will keep your kids from running around. Very fun and comfortable and family geared.

Can you spot the Bicycles up toward the ceiling?

I will be back, of course!!!

Great pizzas

by VL57

Pitfire pizzas are very tasty and full of flavors as they are baked in a brick oven and they are made with fresh ingredients. I love their thin crust! Their chopped italian salad is also delicious but quite small for the price. I like to go there or place an order directly on their web site to be delivered at home. They messed up my online orders 2-3 times last year (delivered small pizza instead of large; some items were missing...) but I have ordered there a couple of times for the past couple of months and it was fine.

  • Pros: Fresh ingredients; thin crust pizzas
  • Cons: Messed up my internet orders several times
