Just a stone's throw from Venice Beach, this sunny spot serves up satisfying California-style burgers and brunch favorites that pack huge flavors and good vibes.
"This popular Venice spot recently added wood-fired pizzas to the menu, and in keeping with the “something for everyone” ethos of said menu (which is also probably the secret to Great White’s success), there’s the perfect pizza for just about every occasion. Want a pie at brunch? The 55° is a pretty solid approximation of Nova lox, with cold-smoked salmon, red onions, capers, and dill atop a schmear of chive crema and a charred crust. Looking for something super-savory at dinner? Like the name implies, their Truffle Fungi pairs deep, rich truffles with plenty of earthy mushrooms (and a white-wine lemon cream). Or, if you’re just in the mood for, like, a regular pizza, their pepperoni pie has about seven pounds of perfectly crisp, slightly salty pep on it, and it might be our favorite of the bunch." - brant cox, brett keating
"We just published our picks for The Best New Pizza In Los Angeles, which means I’ve spent the past month doing extensive pizza-related research (and, as a result, lots of cardio, too). I shouted out one of my picks - the Hapa Pizza at Ospi - a couple weeks ago in this very space, so now I’d like to give a little love to the wood-fired pies at Great White. The menu at this popular Venice spot already features something for every occasion, and the pizzas follow suit. Want a pie at brunch?

"Great White offers a fantastic all-day brunch inspired by the beach scene in Australia. The menu has something for everyone, including a respectable breakfast burrito, stomach-filling grain bowl, and market fruit-topped hotcake. The avocado toast is easily one of the best at the Venice, Larchmont, or West Hollywood locations, while those who want more substantial plates can opt for the juicy double patty burger or blistered wood-fired pizzas." - Eater Staff
"Sunny Venice star Great White is all about the Australian influences in its menu, from flat whites to summery lunchtime bowls. The breakfast burrito is all LA though, a mix of melty, stringy cheese, soft eggs, and fried tater tots." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
"We rarely prioritize subtlety in breakfast burritos, but at Great White in Venice, it’s the tiny details that set their tater tot, egg, and bacon-based burrito apart. Chipotle aioli adds creaminess to the whole thing, and roasted scallions and chives lift the dish to an herby next level." - nikko duren, garrett snyder
