Exciting news for pizza fans! A top-rated pizzeria is broadening its presence in Los Angeles.
Pizzeria Sei, recently recognized as the second-best in the U.S. (first in California) and ninth globally, is set to open a larger venue in West LA.
This place is famous for its incredible Neapolitan-style pizzas, crafted with great care and precision. Since its debut in 2022, this beloved Tokyo-inspired eatery has garnered a devoted fan base, and folks in West LA will now have easier access to what many deem a transformative pizza experience.
The new venue promises to provide Say’s team with ample space to whip up the signature dishes that have garnered worldwide praise. It’s even made its way into the Michelin Guide California.
Pizzeria Sei is the brainchild of chef William Joo, who was born in Korea and raised in Los Angeles, alongside his wife and business partner, Jennifer So. Joo has created a unique following with his oven-fresh pizzas, inspired by Japanese-style Neapolitan pizza.
The restaurant’s distinct approach fuses traditional techniques from Naples, Italy, with a Japanese flair. Imagine crusts that are beautifully charred and curly, topped with high-quality seasonal ingredients, infused with a hint of smokiness, and sporting that coveted leopard-spotted char that pizza lovers crave.
For those who have endured long waits or trekked to the original small spot on W. Pico Boulevard, this expansion is a welcome development. Pizzeria Sei has long set a high standard for pizza in Los Angeles, and the new West LA site should be a game-changer for beach enthusiasts.
With the new location opening on June 24th, avid pizza aficionados are already reserving their spots, so it might be wise to jump on the reservation app when new dates are available.
In a city bursting with excellent pizza options, Pizzeria Sei continues to make a name for itself. And now, West LA is about to get a whole lot cheesier.
It’s definitely love at first bite!
