"Located in that busy intersection of Sunset Blvd., between the 76 station and Mohawk Bend, Cosa Buona is a casual neighborhood hangout that serves puffy-crusted pizza designed by the chef who also runs Silver Lake star Alimento. Each pie is properly blistered and chewy, with topping combinations that aren’t trying to do backflips or steal the spotlight (but are nevertheless excellent, ranging from a classic margherita to a sausage pie with mustard greens and slightly spicy chilis). Order a side of smoked mozzarella sticks along with your pie if you know what’s good for you." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
