Pretty good, especially if you like thin crust pizza. Still, remembering my excellent Brooklyn pizza from my younger days, I long for a bready crusted base with a delicious marinara sauce and perfectly sizzing mozzarella cheese topped with oregano and garlic salt. The holy grail of pizza rests on those 3 ingredients (bread, sauce, cheese). You won't find that here, but as an LA Vegan I appreciate that they try and do deliver a nice thin crusted pizza from a wood burning oven! Extra points because I can go there with my non-vegan friends and enjoy and they have a 1/2 price happy hour on all food and drink. Who thought up this place? Someone who obviously has a brain and some vegan friends.
Since I'm usually with a bunch of people and they serve pies, I tend to get the "Vegan" pie and also tend to design my own frankenvegan pie. They'll indulge you if you ask. Service is great, kitchen seems clean, music tends towards the crackin' pop 70's and it;s got a great atmosphere with contrasting textures of various brick, wood and stones.
I know the day is coming when vegan cheese will match real cheese and all Vegans will rejoice (place your bets on the penultimate vegan cheesemaker - Dave from Madeline's Bistro in Tarzana)
