One of the best pizza joints in New York, Prince Street Pizza is permanently landing in Los Angeles after multiple pop-ups and months of anticipation. It is famed for its Sicilian-style square pies and heaps of pepperoni. The new shop is carving out a West Coast space for its lauded and loaded slices with a casual takeout pizza operation on the Sunset Strip. Los Angeles has got plenty of square-pie talent, but Prince Street’s new slice shop will open its doors on Saturday at 11 am to offer all its fan-favorite varieties. It has marked the shop one of NYC’s most beloved for nearly a decade. It’s not only bringing options such as the Spicy Spring but making with fra Diavolo sauce, spicy pepperoni, and fresh mozzarella.

The new shop also has a New York City water filtration system that helps them replicate their crust made at the Nolita shop. Point to be noted that water quality is a major point of debate in what makes New York pizza so uniquely delicious. But for all the buzz that Prince Street’s thick-crusted Sicilian pies rightfully garner, the father-and-son team of Frank and Dom Morano also turn out thinner, Neapolitan-inspired slices, too, and they’re bringing those to L.A, as well. It is expected these in flavors such as the Green Machine, with pesto, mozzarella, ricotta, and Gaeta olives; the Boozy Broome, with vodka sauce and fresh mozzarella; and the Original Prince, topped with marinara and grated mozzarella.

Point to be noted that it’s all a partnership between the Moranos and Lawrence Longo of Los Angeles, as well as Longo’s Off The Menu food club, which facilitated Prince Street’s West Coast pop-ups. However, the team has managed to more or less replicate the original NYC pizza shop. The new outpost is getting some of its own L.A flavor through a partnership with Madhappy. It is a lifestyle and street-wear brand known to collaborate with some of the city’s best restaurants, including the Apple Pan. You will be able to find a Madhappy pizza involving spicy vodka sauce at Prince Street and online. People can snag a capsule collection featuring a crewneck sweatshirt at $175, a tee at $70, and a hat at $45 among other items, which all drop on Saturday morning at 9 am.
