So Roy Choi- who brought the food truck craze to LA, with his Kogi food truck, has opened a couple restaurants in LA. He recently decided to open up a pizza place to serve hungry customers at his Pot Lobby Bar. There was a lot of fan fare about the opening. The pizza is a square like Detroit, pan, but not deep dish and thin like New York. Kinda of weird combo.
The name and the website, with a black and white picture of somebody smoke some pot is stupid. I get he is trying to cater to the drunk idiots who got the bar, and then smoke some pot before or after partying. But, give me a break.
It's inside the Line Hotel on Wilshire. It's really a small display case with what looks like toaster ovens reheating the pizza, which are already made. I don't know where the pizzas are made. Maybe in the kitchen of one of the restaurants he has at the hotel.
Cheese slice- $4. They sell only slices and only three options-cheese, pepperoni, and a Koreatown Special with kimchi and some salad on top. I got two cheese slices. They were below average. The crust is too crispy for my tastes, like a damn cracker. They may have to turn down the temps on the ovens, since my slices were too well done. The sauce is just there, no real flavor. The cheese is plentiful. Little Caesars is better pizza than this, and I'm not kidding! On a side note-The person in front of me ordered some type of juice and that juice cost $10!! What a rip off! Hell, I would just buy a drink from the bar for that price!!
Service is good. The line moves pretty fast and the people are nice.
This was a complete waste of time and money! If you're a drunk, stoned idiot you may enjoy the pizza. But, this is a terrible example of pizza!
