This is real New York pizza -- the original Joe's is still open in Brooklyn, New York & a second in still open in Little Italy near Bleeker @ Carmine.
The Santa Monica Joe's Pizza is on Broadway @ Ocean Ave., right by the ocean. This is not a 'restaurant' but a real NY pizza joint.
They made the dough FRESH every morning, allowing it to rise in individual tins, the cheese is fresh, not frozen, top quality, a simple marinara sauce. They are simple pizzas (about 10 different toppings) thin crust... and a Sicilan pizza (thick) all baked in a wood burning oven... just like they do in NYC.
The slices are huge, but the crust is very thin. They sell pizza by the slice or made to order fresh if you want a whole pizza. This is more of a takeout place.
A Joe's pizza slice is eaten by folding it in half, lengthwise, when you do you will hear a CRACK that is the crisp crust.... no soggy pizzas here.
If you want pineapple on your pizza go to Pizza Hut. If you want Thai spicy chicken on your pizza go to CA Pizza Kitchen... because you do not want a real NY pizza.
This is the real deal. Now all the Californians will discover what all the NY pizza lovers have been talking about... freshness, great dough.
This is not a sit down Italian restaurant, it's a tiny pizza place that specializes in making GREAT PIZZA!
