I finally visited Mozza, the LA's buzzing restaurant of the moment. Mozza is the creation of the famed American Chef Mario Batali and his partner Nancy Silverton.
For appetizer, we have the prosciutto with fresh mozzarella. The prosciutto was fresh but the mozzarella was amazing! The mozzarella was soft and moist, probably the best mozzarella I ever have. The waiter told us this is mozzarella di bufala, Mozza ordered it from Seattle. I should find out which company Mozza order it from and see if I can get some for myself.
I have the little neck clam pizza and my friend have the prosciutto di Parma pizza with arugula and mozzarella. I love the pizza crest, it was very thin and crispy at the bottom with airy high rising edge; delicious! The pizza itself was not greasy and full of flavors. Both pizzas were excellent.
For desserts, I have the Butterscotch buddino with pine nut while my friend have the Affogato (2 espresso shots with ice cream and biscuit). I like the butterscotch but don't really care for the cookies that came with it.
Overall, I like the food and would recommend Mozza to anyone that likes gourmet pizza. Next time I go, I would like to try the squash blossom and lardo and oregano salami pies. Click here for more Mozza reviews.
Pizzeria Mozza is located at the corner of Melrose and Highland and the building can be easily spotted as it is bright orange. The decor at Mozza is very warm, brightly lit, good for family and business meals. The price for this eatery is pretty reasonable, with all dishes price under $20 and desserts under $10, with many wine selections. If you did not have a reseravation, you would be seated at the bar or wait hours for a table. We made reservation so was seated right away.
