Larchmont’s Village Pizzeria and its Veggie II

Filed under: Midtown, Eat — StyleGuide @ 6:33 am

Village Pizzeria’s Veggie II pizza always leaves me considering the benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle.

Normally I’m all for ordering up the city’s rich offerings of carnivorous delights, whether a hefty brisket, slow cooked carnitas, or a juicy link — and this tiny Larchmont pizza parlor even tops their pizzas with homemade sausage. But their Veggie II, smeared with pesto and dotted with fresh spinach, mushrooms, little Lincoln logs of breaded eggplant, and garlic, is an eye-opener. 

Did I mention it has garlic? Lots and lots of garlic. Aromatic mountain ranges of minced garlic. It’s the kind of dish you’d want to eat before you slay vampires.

Village Pizzeria serves pitchers of beer (think Sam Adams and Sierra Nevada), so pass your carnivore friends a frosty one before trying to make converts out of them.

Price:  $$ (whole pies start around $16)

Where:  131 N. Larchmont, Los Angeles, CA 90004

Call:  323-465-5566
