Master Critic Review

Flour Pizzeria & Café (Brentwood) 8.0
Brentwood
A 72-hour fermented, European-flour dough operation that NY transplants actually co-sign as legitimate thin-crust pizza on the Westside. The Rosa pie with fresh burrata and hot honey is the repeat-order anchor, and Dave Portnoy's 8.1 score backs up the technique. Expect a tight 20-seat counter with a patio option—order the specialty pies, skip the gluten-free crust, and come off-peak or call ahead for pickup.
Must-Try Dishes: Classic Pepperoni Slice, Burrata & Honey House Special, Margherita Slice

What makes it special: New York slices with homemade dough and a neighborhood-priced whole-pie option.
Who should go: Slice hunters and takeout families.
When to visit: Lunch or early evening for the freshest pies.
What to order: Pepperoni, Margherita, and the burrata-honey special.
Insider tip: Grab a hot slice right as a new pie hits the rack.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking only—tight spots, expect a hunt at peak hours. Restaurant validates for 90 minutes. Free meters on Sundays. No valet, no private lot. Arrive off-peak or plan for takeout.
Dress code: Ultra-casual counter-service slice shop—shorts, t-shirts, athleisure all fine. No dress expectations whatsoever.
Noise level: Small space (~20 seats) with pop music playing constantly—expect lively, conversational-to-energetic volume. Not a quiet conversation spot.
Weekend wait: Food is fast (slices in 90 seconds), but only ~20 seats—the wait is for a table, not for food. Arrive before peak or grab takeout.
Weekday lunch: Quick in and out—seating usually available off-peak, takeout ready in about 5 minutes.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Strong options: Margherita, Bianca (ricotta + mozzarella), Truffle, Vodka Sauce pies, plus Caprese sandwich and fresh cannoli.
Gluten-free options: Dedicated 18-inch gluten-free pie available (imported gluten-free wheat, long-fermented dough via Topanga Grain Company). Comes as Margherita unless specified otherwise.
Best For
Better for: Quick solo slices, casual family bites, grab-and-go takeout, neighborhood hangout vibes. Counter seats great for solo dining.
Consider Alternatives If: You want a sit-down date night, large group dining, full table service, or vegan entree options—this is a no-frills counter-service slice shop with very limited seating.
