About

Specializing in pizza made with a sweet potato crust that's injected with a sweet potato mousse, Mr. Pizza Factory makes the weirdest pies in Los Angeles. The cuisine at this Korean-owned "pizza fusion" joint is very mad-scientist, but it's delicious! There's a lot going on in every one of these pies, but once you stop thinking, you're free to dive into the fluffy orange crust filled with a lightly sweet mousse made from sweet potatoes. The best pizza is the Potato Gold, topped with potato slices and sizable bacon slices. The daunting looking BLT Garden pizza -- known colloquially as the salad pizza -- is topped with a salad's worth of greens, chicken breast chunks and then drizzled with the restaurant's "signature mayonnaise," which tastes remarkably like regular mayo. Forget the standard, thin-crust pizzas. They're unremarkable. And ignore the bulgogi pizza, it tastes more like hamburger pizza from Pizza Hut than anything resembling Korean barbecue. At Mr. Pizza, the weirder the better.

TIP: 20% off on all takeout orders Mon. - Fri.
