" I came here on a whim after a long day, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made! Pizza Buona's lasagna was hearty, and my friends loved their pizzas as well. The interior is cozy with charming decor. I found the prices fair considering the generous portions too. I will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I decided to check out Pizza Buona after hearing recommendations from friends. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the lasagna and a couple of specialty pizzas. The lasagna was very hearty, and everyone enjoyed the pizza toppings. I appreciate how they don't skimp on cheese and toppings! The only downside was the wait time, but it was worth it. We’ll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pizza Buona during my trip to LA based on the reviews, and it did not disappoint! The portions were generous, especially for a pizza.

Would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Italian pizza in LA. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pizza Buona is a hidden gem! The moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly baked pizza filled the air. I tried their house special, and it was heavenly. The combination of flavors was well balanced, and the crust – oh man, the crust! Perfectly done. I also loved the service; the staff were cheerful and really made an effort to engage with customers. Will be coming back ASAP! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience on my first visit. The pasta was overcooked and not seasoned well. The pizza had potential but lacked the flavor I was hoping for. Staff were friendly, but the kitchen needs improvement. I might give it another try, but I’m hesitant. " (*Curated Review*)
