Must go! So freaking delicious. Got the wood-fired roasted potato pizza which just melted in my mouth. Also got the daily brussels sprouts special which too was amazing.

Eater

Retaining some of the best aspects of Mozza's crust-centric vision, Milo & Olive prepares some of the best pizzas on the Westside, thanks to fantastic toppings and a steady wood-fired crust. Read more

So many great things to try! The garlic knot is a must (order as soon as you sit down, takes 20 min). The butternut squash soup , potato gnocchi and chicken meatball pizza were all stellar.

Mohammed Abu Hajar

Really outstanding pizza , we ordered the Burrata cheese as appetiser it was yummy and the organic chicken balls is good but the Chicken Pizza was outstanding, great and fast service , they have Dine

Serious Eats

Upscale no frills bakery and pizzeria using local and organic produce and meats. They don't take reservations and seats purely on first come basis so if you want to bring a larger group come early.

This bright , airy spot does a fantastic breakfast with wood-fired asparagus with sunny-side up eggs , breakfast pizza with house sausage and potatoes , or a baked eggs skillet with pepperonata. Read more

A tiny, always packed bakery and cafe from the Rustic Canyon team. Expect seasonal small plates , impeccable baked goods , and some of the best pizza pies in the city . [Eater 38 Member]

Best pizza in Santa Monica. Perfect for lunch & dinner & even a pick-up order to go. Everything on the menu is incredible but their crispy pepperoni is an all-time favorite. Add on a garlic knot too!

Buttercup D

The garlic knot is a must! If you're a garlic lover--especially roasted garlic--you'll love it! Garlic and olive oil baked in bread that's tied in a knot at the top. Delicious!!

Ameen Aqeel

Menu has an enticing variety and good looking specials, tried the butternut squash soup which was very good and the pizza was probably the best mushroom pizza I ever ate.

Megan Stluka

The garlic knot is a must for sure, also the margarita pizza is excellent. Also the desserts are delicious, specifically the pound cake and cinnamon bread pudding (special).

Tina H.

Love the bolognese with fresh pasta . The meat sauce is refined and the now overpowering or tangy . It's worth every bite! Their pastries are also delicious.

Christina Cha

Fantastic for breakfast , lunch or dinner ! Love the seasonal crostini , butternut squash , chicken meatballs and arugula salad .

LA Weekly

Zoe Nathan has a way with dough , be it bread dough or laminated dough , and her croissants are glorious examples of the genre, either plain, ham-and-cheese or Valrhona. Read more

Shane Plossu

Go for the chicken meatballs each and every time - we always do. Great flavor, especially when the remaining sauce is scooped up with the house bread .

Alastair

The mocha tart made with Valrhona is to die for, as are the heirloom tomato panzanella with burrata and the garlic knot . Lovely, efficient and enthusiastic staff . Super place for dinner !

Charmi Vijapura

Awesome dinner but not craving to go back at the end of it! The waiter was great but I think overall their service is not very inviting... And that can change a lot about a meal

LAist

You can swap in egg whites without getting scowls from your server if you're trying to keep it light. If you're feeling the hurt of the night's past, opt for one of their Vietnamese iced coffees . Read more

jennifer han

the pizzas are perfect. crusty and firm on the outside, doughy on the inside. the pork belly sausage and kale pizza ...full body quiver of joy.

Kaitlin Yapchaian

So cozy with lovely, relaxed staff . The peach , tomato and burrata salad was exceptional (at the beginning of September). Must get!

LAist

Milo and Olive are offering a butternut squash pizza that comes with caramelized onion , fontina cream, thyme , and aged balsamic. Read more

Larry Vincent

Do yourself a favor. Start with the off-menu selections on the chalk board. I come here at least once a week and I have yet to be disappointed. The chef rocks here.

Dan Steinberg

This is the one pizza spot where you don't want to leave the crust on your plate. Get the house cured olives and dip the crust in the olive oil .

Jason H.

Really good mochas and cappuccinos as well as their breakfasts . Recommended!

Epicurious

I am especially keen on the straight-up Margherita and the mixed-mushroom, which involves a bed of melted Fontina , lemon zest , Parmesan , and thyme . Read more

Jhokania D.

Pizza was really saucy + didn’t align w/ crust. Takes you back to like a Chicago style deep dish , w/o it being deep. Wood fire pound cake - taste infinitely better the next day.

K P

Housemade pork belly pizza , pastas , milo chopped salad , sangria , prosecco cocktails , strawberry corn meal cake , strawberry vanilla tart , verve coffee !!

Ken S

Pretty much everything here is great. Keep an eye for the daily special board since those choices are often amazing!!

Benjamin Palmer

meatballs , cauliflower bisque, pork belly sausage pizza . this place is so good

Julia Park

Decent. Went on a Wednesday for around 6pm, no wait. By 7, there line was piling up, and they were rushing us out (while I understand the rush, we were still mid-meal & finishing our bottle of wine ).

Larry Vincent

Lots of people talk about how great the food is here. What they don't say is that the coffee is great and staff friendly . So order a cup and strike up a conversation!

Cherith Zanghi

Poor layout, good service . Decor is halfass industrial/preschool? Anyway, food is pretty good, it is homey . Pasta is fresh handmade ???????? Can't get over how awkward the seating is. I'm facing a wall

Max

Stick with the simple pizzas and homemade pastas and check the pastry counter for desserts . The passion fruit meringue tart was great.

Valentina Monte

DELICIOUS. Great pizza and pasta . White bean dip situation and salad w crispy capers were surprising and scrumptious

Larry Vincent

I keep thinking there's nothing better than ___ dish, then come back to discover a new favorite. The roasted potatoes with sunny side eggs is my latest pick. Get it with the optional sausage .

Los Angeles magazine

crunchy artisanal bread-inspired pizzas offered margherita style or with toppings such as pork belly sausage and braised greens. Branzino ceviche with fennel is a surprise... Read more

Abigail Koffler

The Parmesan rind minestrone is one the best vegetarian soups I've ever had. Don't miss it!

Jessica Kimiabakhsh

Order a side of mariners with the garlic knot and white sauce pizzas . Takes an amazing dish and makes it even better

Paige Albiniak

The garlic knot has ruined me for all other garlic knots . It has also broken mt heart, because we are doomed to a long distance relationship. So worth the carbs.

WeHo [Eat] Founded by the same kids who did Westside favorites Rustic Canyon and Huckleberry , this farm-to-table restaurant features communal tables with different breakfast , lunch and dinner menus.

We always try at least one special and they have always been fantastic. Seasonal is the way to go!

Caroline On Crack

This is a garlic knot . With an actual not and lots of lovely garlic inside

Sarah Fleishman

Asparagus . Pizza . If you're lucky enough to be there when they have it on special, it's all you need. Amazing!

Larisa Grollemond

Don't miss the giant garlic knot !

Winnie Khoo

Faves: garlic knot , wood fired pear & kale salad ; Skip: Chai latte

DAN COX

Ohhhhhhhhh, the pies are SO GOOD here. But, the garlic knot is a necessity... just make sure that you have breath mints at the ready! ;)

Sean Besser

Zoe Nathan is the queen of dessert in West LA. Her new(ish) bakery & pizzaria rocks. The garlic knots are addictive!

B

Best dishes: fresh pasta with bolognese , sautéed kale , and any pizza with an egg .

Chris K

Large array of dessert . Nice place for some wine/coffee. Mushroom pizza/prosciutto is a must have!

Lauren Karasek

The pizzas are fantastic, but don't miss the wonderful small pates .
