Prompted by our claim that Vito's Pizza is the best in the Los Angeles area, blogger Allen L., who used to bitch about the quality of pizza here some 20 years ago, visited the West Hollywood pizza joint to see for himself...

"Easily one of the top 3 pizzas I have ever had in this town. In fact, I rate it as high, if not higher, as many of the pizza joints in NY. I never really understood why everyone thought Ray's was the greatest. It's not. It's good, but it doesn't make me salivate to think about it," Allen wrote on his blog. "And, hell, I would rather be able to sit down any day. My memories of a lot of NY pizza places is standing at high tables, dripping oil on red formica and barely swallowing before heading off to destinations on the double R. Vito's is everything I was expecting. Everything I want from pizza. It was fabulous."
