Pizza Man (Westwood) 7.7
South Los Angeles
Vibes: Quick Bites Champions Comfort Food Classics Hidden Gems Heaven
A 60-year-old family-run pizzeria near UCLA turning out thin, foldable NY-style slices alongside a surprisingly deep wing sauce lineup. The polarized review profile—mostly loyal regulars alongside occasional sharp disappointments—reads like a spot that rewards repeat visitors who know what to order. Best used as a no-fuss pickup stop where the crust-to-fold ratio does the talking.
Must-Try Dishes: Classic Wings, Greek Salad, Deluxe Pizza
Scores:
Value: 7.5 Service: 7.5 Consistency: 7.5 Food Quality: 7.8 Atmosphere: 7.5 Cultural Relevance: 8
What makes it special: Family-run NY-style pizzeria serving Westwood since 1964 with thin, foldable pies and a deep wing sauce selection
Who should go: UCLA-area regulars craving reliable NY-style slices and wings
When to visit: Weekday lunch for quick counter service without crowds
What to order: Grab a Deluxe or BBQ Chicken pie to share, add a side of wings in one of eight sauce options, and round out with a Greek Salad
Insider tip: The wings come in eight distinct sauces including mango habanero and garlic buffalo — ask for a mix on an 18-piece bucket
Logistics & Planning
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Strong options — dedicated Vegetarian specialty pizza plus Margherita, Greek, Mediterranean, and Cheese Lovers pizzas. All veggie toppings available on build-your-own (mushroom, black olives, onion, green pepper, tomato, artichoke, basil, and more). Salads also available.
Vegan options: Menu states 'vegan options available upon request' on build-your-own pizzas — no dedicated vegan items listed, so ask the counter what they can do.
Best For
Better for: Fast, affordable NY-style slices when you want no-fuss comfort food — order at the counter, grab your pie, done. Specialty crusts (cauliflower, GF) give it more range than most slice shops.
Consider Alternatives If: You want a sit-down dining experience or craft cocktails — this is a counter-service pizza shop, not a restaurant.
