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

Felix Ortiz: The pizza was wonderful! They used a variety of Italian cheeses, which made each pizza special. It tastes authentic as we enjoyed in Italy. We also loved the Tiramisu.
DailyCandy: The bustling, sceney atmosphere has small but mighty wine list, and best spinach and kale salad west of the Mississippi.
Danielle Stolz: The spinach and crispy purple kale salad is not only healthy, but also delicious. The same goes for the oven roasted tomato pizza. Highly recommend both if you ever stop by!

Rj St Thomas: The pizza is fantastic! Get it with pepperoni, salami and sausage!
Alessandro Bressan: Great pizza!
Jenna Rose Robbins: Ask them to cut the pizza when it's halfway baked, then let it finish baking. This will keep the center from getting soggy -- a well-known affliction to pizzas of all types, not just 800 Degrees'.
