Danny Boy's

I’ve been waiting for months for Danny’s to open. When I saw they were open today we made sure to go for lunch! The pizza was amazing. I love the fresh basil and roasted garlic on the white shroom slice. We ate a Cesar salad that I didn’t photograph because I was too busy eating it all. The Greek salad I brought home and had for dinner, was absolutely delicious. The vibe was chill and I love the decor. The staff was super kind and explained the menu well. Definitely will be back later this week and every week after.

Visiting from New Jersey I was very excited to visit Danny Boy’s, having followed their social media accounts for quite some time! My goodness they did not disappoint. Crust is amazing, crispy yet airy! Tomato sauce had lots of flavor and the pepperoni is great quality (cup-a-roni)!!! I thought the sicilian slice was the stand out! Crust was crispy, yet light and airy and not too thick. Full of flavor. The Westwood location has only been open for a week or so and it shows. So clean and really nice vibe and colors.. whites, reds and greens. Plenty of comfortable seating. Loved the hanging pizza slice art hanging from the ceiling!!!!

The first time I came here the owner gave me so much stuff to try. Walked me through the menu and everything just because I said I had never been there before. I come back all the time for their ranch, that Margherita slice, and a chocolate chip cookie! Top tier pizza and service every time!

First time getting pizza since moving to LA! My friends recommended it and it completely lives up to hype!

Delicious. Recommend for a quick slice, and not heavy on stomach. Ssaucy with rich taste from the sausage and cheese. Soft crust with a slight crunch. Garlic knots were buttery and soft inside. Very filling.

Heard many good things so we gave them a try. Ordered delivery to the pool. We were not disappointed! We loved it. Kiddos loved it. Even delivered the crust was crispy. Sauce is on point. All around great pizza!

I'd heard so many good things, i had to try it for myself. Best pizza I've had anywhere. No joke. Garlic knots and meatballs were also out-of-this-world good. Really cool atmosphere inside in a great location by UCLA. Can't wait to go back.

Loved the food, the welcoming experience and the vibe.. 😍 A lot of seats and tables, the pizza gets toasted well for you.. Cam was welcoming and he gave our dog a treat!! 🐶♥️

1st time here, ordered a hot supreme, garlic knots and fountain drink. Fresh out of the oven and looked amazing. Pizza itself tasted amazing but with all the toppings the middle of the pizza got a little soggy and collapsed. None the less it was still good. Had a lot of other traditional options as well. Will be back for sure

Delicious pizza, especially the sicilian pepperoni slice!! The garlic knots are super light and airy. The ranch is PHENOMENAL!!! Also, get a free cookie if you review 😉 (INSANELY YUMMY COOKIE. WOW. thin and crispy golden outside, soft inside)

Thank you to Cam!! For being so absolutely friendly and kind! Love this new pizza, very fresh, very delicious thank you! Great beer too, will come here often

A fantastic spot with friendly staff. This spot was close to our hotel and we noticed that there were a lot of pizza joints with a NYC background. We ordered a 23” half Meatball & Ricotta and half Sausage and Mozzarella. The staff were ok with the half and half order as long as the sauce base was the same (they recommended the tomato sauce over the pizza sauce). We mentioned that we had egg allergies. About ten minutes after ordering, they told us that there was an issue with our order in that the meatball actually had eggs. They offered to make us another pie at no charge - so we went with a basic pepperoni. Antonio (the manager on site that evening) and his staff were just wonderful, and we really appreciated their honesty, accountability, and hospitality. The pizza itself was delicious. It might not pass the Pourtnoy flop test, but the pizza was huge, the sauce sweet and fresh, and the meatball topping (which I ate exclusively as the kids had the non-egg slices) was yummy with the ricotta. There are a number of pizza places in the UCLA area, but I’d recommend this spot. Great staff, good value. One 23” pizza should fit two people with leftovers. Our two pizzas fed five with three slices leftover. Thank you Antonio, Danny, and staff!

Yall i keep coming back to this place. Ive tried other pizza in westwood but this place has such big slices, delicious sauce, and nice atmosphere. Good to try at least once. Ive had pizza in person and uber eats and they were both good.

Visited Danny Boy’s on August 17. Let’s break it down. Environment: Upon entering, you’ll walk into a relaxed environment, a “come as you are type of vibe”. I was greeted by the employees and was encouraged to look at their pies located at the far end of their counter, since it was my first time visiting. Awesome employees, who do not hesitate to suggest menu items. Food/Beverages: I was suggested to order their Sicilian pep, pepperoni slice, and wings. The Sicilian slice was the squared slice, honestly not much was going on with the initial bite. The crust was a bit soggy, lacked a thin layer of tomato sauce, and was not evenly coated with cheese. The only thing that stood out was the pepperoni, anything else was pretty bland. After my initial bite, I followed with the Pepperoni Slice, which was the slice that stood out to me. The undercarriage was there, while the crust provided a crunchy exterior with an interior that was on the softer side. The cheese and pepperoni distribution was even, therefore each bite was like the prior. A solid pizza, complimented with well seasoned pepperoni. Overall (4.5/5) I would visit again, to try their other menu items. Furthermore, I would recommend their pizza slices rather than the squared ones, but try it one time to be the judge. Lastly, as always, I leave crumbs to my fellow readers. One, try their wings, the wings are on the larger side and have a great taste since they have an in house brine marinade and buffalo sauce. I did not expect it to be crunchy, moist, and flavorful. Second, fountain drinks are free refills, therefore refill as you need. Lastly, if you’re a salad person, an employee told me that the salads are pretty good. I’ll try it next time.

They have very fairly priced food for the location and the quality. Slices of pizza are huge, and the place is very modern yet comfortable. Definitely will be back

This place was just a great pizza spot. We had the pepperoni Sicilian slice, a pepperoni slice, mozzarella sticks and meatballs for the 3 of us. Everything was served hot and plated simply on paper plates and cardboard bowls. The sauce served with the meatballs was sweet but not too sweet. The mozzarella was creamy and delicious with a light breading which was not heavy at all. Each slice was different but the pepperonis were good & spicy on both. The food was served quickly so it was still nice & hot as we ate. We even got to meet the owner who was gracious and professional. Looking for a good spot to grub in Westwood make sure you stop in.

Great pizza and really fun atmosphere. All the cashiers and servers are so nice! Also love the vibe of the neon signs and giant slices. Nostalgic ☺️

Eric made my first time at Danny Boy’s such a great experience. He was super knowledgeable, knew exactly what to recommend, and everything was delicious. He even made the wings extra crispy which I 10/10 recommend, so good. The cookie, salad, wings, square pizza, and ranch were unreal. Definitely coming back!

What an amazing space of delicious creativity. The staff are amazing and it’s just not for students it’s for friends and families. The pizza is amazing and filled with your favorite ingredients. The fresh taste and the crisp crust will make you want an xl pizza upon your return. Hey this is the place for great food and fun.

One of the greats on the westside. This must be a great spot for the college kids. The owner was great and very hospitable. Gave out Pizza stickers to my daughter. Will come again if we are in the area.

Had a good experience with the pizza here! The sauce had a nice depth of flavor, and the cheese was a little chewy but yummy, adding a texture to each bite. The dough was good—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. A bit on the pricey side, but honestly justifies it. And the ranch? It was full of flavor and good consistency. The ranch was really ranching! Since i only tried one pie, i would come for other ones. Overall, worth a try.

My partner and I came after walking around for a bit and enjoyed ourselves. Staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean. We ordered a cheese, pepperoni and sausage pizza and it satisfied our cravings. However, I do recommend waiting for your pizza to cool down a bit because our toppings slid off the second we picked our slices. My partner also had their chocolate chip cookie and loved it!!

A good homage to a superior style of pizza. I’m a Lamonicas guy, ride or die, so I was curious to try the new New York slice on the block and while it was good, I’m not dying to go back. I will say the vibe is cool with the pizza lights and the service is friendly. Also, the variety of ordering options ranging from “not to hot” to “xtra crispy” is a unique and kinda fun, but is it really a true NY slice if it doesn’t come out piping hot and crispy? My friend got two pieces, cheese and the White Pie, and she said it was good but nothing incredible. I got the Sicilian Pepperoni and the crunchy bottom is a game changer. Each layer of the pizza from the crisp bottom, pillowy center and broiled cheese skin top make for a fun bite of textual contrast every time. The sauce was good but maybe a little too sweet — but the saltiness of the motz did well to balance it out. The Buffalo Wings were solid for a baked wing. The skin was the right kind of tough and the meet was surprisingly juicy. The sauce was good with an acidic heat that hits the back of the throat. The ranch was like Hidden Valley only without the processed after taste. It was on the thinner side but still creamy with a good buttermilk tang. Danny Boy’s is a good contender in the pizza game but not one I’m rushing back to.

I saw this pizza place when leaving the Hammer museum. I looked up its reviews and saw that it was a 4.8. What I high review I thought. Pizza must be good. I had a plain slice and it was honestly average. It was also expensive. $5 for a slice. They got the NYC style crust correct but the cheese and sauce flavor are very lacking. Then I saw a little sign on my table that they give a free cookie for a 5 star review. Then I understood why the reviews are so high. Skip this place if you are looking for good pizza and skip a place that has an artificially high rating.

I’ve had the DTLA location before and enjoyed it a lot but I stopped in for a salad with chicken today and when I got back to work I was shocked to find the chicken was fully uncooked. It was already sliced and put on top of the salad so it’s crazy they didn’t catch that. Probably won’t be returning to this location 😭 Photos don’t do it justice for how pink it was in person
