Pizza of Venice (POV) pays homage to the vibrant culture of Venice Beach in its prime, a time when artistic innovation and boardwalk hustle thrived. It was established by friends Chef Sean St. John, who grew up in Barbados, and Chef Jamie Woolner, a Los Angeles native with New Orleans roots. POV is a fusion of diverse backgrounds and a shared passion. Their transition from Venice Beach teenagers to restaurant owners is driven by their friendship and dedication to culinary excellence. At POV, they take pride in creating homemade ingredients, most notably their signature pepperoni aged for 100 days. From oak-smoked mozzarella to freshly squeezed limeade, every detail is a labor of love that reflects their respect for the craft and commitment to providing extraordinary flavors.***IMPORTANT NOTE***When you arrive for your reservation, you will proceed to the counter to order your food. Once you are seated, we will bring your food directly to your table.

Food is amazing. We had spaghetti with meat sauce, Margherita pizza, arugula salad, and gelato. Pasta was chewy/al dente and the meat sauce was the perfect accompaniment. Pizza crust was very light, sauce and cheese were very flavorful. Salad was topped with really good parmesan cheese. The gelato was the perfect ending. Everything tastes homemade with love. Although Italian food can be heavy, this meal left us feeling satisfied, but not overly full (which is perfect). We have lactose and gluten sensitivities, so I was prepared to not feel great later, but I had no bad affects from the meal. Service was great! Very friendly and personable. Definitely recommend Bulgarini if you want an authentic Italian meal that won't leave you feeling heavy.
