"William Joo trained at Providence and Ronan before opening his own Tokyo-style Neapolitan pizzeria in Pico-Robertson. Joo and wife Jennifer So operate this minimalist gem with a dedicated team serving a tight array of wood-fired pizzas boasting chewy, mochi-like crusts. Italian standards like margherita, marinara, and a caper-and-anchovy-topped Napoletana share menu space with more envelope-pushing pies like Joo’s Castelvetrano olive- and sopressata-topped Diavola and the prosciutto cotto-, egg-, and truffle-oil adorned Bismarck. Sei continues to garner attention for its understated excellence. Pizza enthusiasts can try to get a counter seat at Joo’s monthly omakase, a pricey but truly spectacular adventure into the mind of a pizza chef." - Eater Staff
