LA's 12 Best New Restaurants Of 2022 - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"This Echo Park pizza parlor only really does two things—pan-style pizza and decadent desserts—and both of them are incredible. The pizza is pan-style in its peak form: a buttery, inch-high crust, and a spongy, focaccia-like interior that absorbs the flavors of the toppings. The desserts are nostalgia-rich slab cakes and pies, which are exactly what you want after taking down three crunchy corner slices. There’s also a swift takeout service, but if you have the chance to dine in at Quarter Sheets, you should. The retro, brick-walled dining room feels like a cross between a funky natural wine bar and a '90s-era pizza joint you might’ve gone to after a soccer game. And while the pizzas and desserts change almost daily, we feel confident saying the best thing to eat at Quarter Sheets is whatever is on the menu that day. After years of being walk-in only, Quarter Sheets now takes reservations. The bad news: those reservations disappear in minutes. Tables are released two weeks in advance at 9am, and they do still take some walk-ins (but prepare to wait at least an hour)." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
