Meanest Waitress on Earth

by seaurchinceviche

Avoid "Scar". The service here is TERRIBLE! It's such a shame, it used to be so nice.

The pizza was good 2 years ago, or even 1 year ago, but since then it has become a soggy, pathetic mess. I used to come in here several times a week, but the last 6 times I have been disgusted, both by the food and horrendous service.

If your thing is: you love offensively bad service, and waiting an hour for an inedible pizza, then you will love it here..

Pizza!

by tambs

They have the best thin crust pizza here and what separates them from everyone else is their crust!! The garlic rolls are also very very good and price is so affordable! $8.50 for a whole lunch special (which includes an individual pizza of 6-8 slices, a side salad, garlic roll and drink)

Soggy pizza

by dshinla

I've been ordering pizza from village for a few years and have usually been very satisfied.....but lately, the pizza has become too soggy. Ask for it extra crisp does not matter. I will give it one more try then will need to find a new neighborhood pizzeria :(

• Pros: homemade sausage
• Cons: soggy pizza

Convenient location, poor service, mediocre pizza

by mguiselini

My husband and I love pizza and we love walking on Larchmont. Although we have dined at Village Pizzeria a dozen times, our experience is always the same. The wait staff seems to rush us through our meal, giving us the check before we have asked for it, even when there is no one waiting for a table. The pizza is just OK. It's usually a little soggy because they don't bake it long enough but the toppings and the thickness of the crust are good. If I order a slice of pizza, I only get the cheese. When you order a slice with toppings, they put the toppings on a slice of cheese pizza and reheat it so the toppings are still raw and crunchy. Not good.

Basically, this is not nearly the best pizza in the city but the location is convenient for us and the price is reasonable.

• Pros: Location, Location, Location
• Cons: Poor Service

It's a Pizzeria not the four seasons

by hired

This place is superb. Great pies, great toppings, quickly made. If you are sitting down, relax, if you are ordering form your house, pick it up. It's too good of a pie to complain.

New York-style pizza and California freshness join to produce authentic, thin crust pizzas on the hip Larchmont strip.

by Matthew Allard

What started in San Francisco in the early 1970's has now exploded in Los Angeles' quiet Larchmont neighborhood. Since 1996, this wedge of New York-style pizza heaven has pleased lovers of the giant thin crust slice, providing super fresh toppings and homemade sausage and meatballs. The handful of well-worn red tables that spill out onto the front sidewalk offer a somewhat quiet respite from the absolute chaos held inside, where harried servers scramble past walls littered with ancient newspaper clippings and the pizzeria's multitude of awards. The hustle and bustle is just a small price to pay for such delicious pie.

Good Food & Mean Service Do Not Mix In This Town

by ankle45

What else could you want from a pizza joint in LA that serve's good pizza? i'll give ya a hint: how about ..... friendly service to go with the food!!!! I'll admit the food is good but not worth every dime. Why??? The service gals are mean and snappy. Who needs to deal with people that are mean and not willing to wait on innocent customers. all i want is a slice of pizza not an attitude as a topping. I lost my appetite.

• Pros: food
• Cons: service

Don't anger the staff!

by DukeWellington

Let me get this out of the way: the pizza's not bad, if a little soggy.

Somehow we incensed the staff, however, attempting to negotiate the take-out / eat-in divide. Without

going into too many details, our low-key family of three with no prior restaurant confrontations was made

to feel bizarrely unwelcome. Angry lecturing, slamming of dishes, a messed-up order, mumbling, weird

eye contact...what is this, the gruel line at the orphanage?

Me: I'd like to add [pasta dish] and a side salad to our order.

Her: [Gesturing] All of these people waited twenty minutes for their pizza!

[The restaurant is empty - they just opened. I have no idea what she means.]

Me: Sorry, is it not possible?

Her: [Angry noises, writes down the wrong thing. Someone else confronts me later and tells me I ordered a Cobb salad.]

After 15 minutes, we left, $56 poorer. Try to guess whether we'll be back!

Excepetional Pizza

by anydange

We all know that good pizza is hard to come by in LA, but fear not, as Village Pizza has come to save us all!

They've just opened a new store in hollwooy, on Yucca. Which just so happens to be a 3 min walk from my office. Most lunch times are now pizza or some variation thereof.

Their calzone is to die for. I highlt reccomend it. Everything else is just as good and the price is excellent.

Hopefully they'll open up a store on the west side so that i can eat it for dinner to!

• Pros: Excellent pizza, Fast service.
• Cons: Busy at lunch - but who in hollywood isn't?
