The inception of Romanaccia is what happens when you stay close to your roots. It is Luca Tartaglia’s vision to bring his native city of Rome to Los Angeles. And as an actor, writer, and producer, he could only have chosen Hollywood — at least to begin with, as more outlets are already in the works.
| “Romanaccia” is Roman slang for “from Rome.” |
On the menu
Tartaglia, who has chef Alessandro Scuderi as a partner-in-pizza, designed the elegant white space, complete with luminous images of Rome and Italy drifting across a plasma screen.
Chef Alessandro Scuderi is one of the most influential contemporary pizzaioli in Italy today. He is a Roman‑style and pan‑baked pizza specialist, known for his precision dough work and highly digestible products. The dough is long‑fermented, producing a light, airy interior and a signature Roman crunch.
In the end, the duo crafted a concept so compelling that Romanaccia landed on GAYOT’s Best 10 Pizza Restaurants in the U.S.A.
There are four pizza sections on the menu:
– Classiche (Romanaccia classics like Margherita)
– Lingue (crispy Roman flatbreads)
– Baciate (pizza sandwiches)
– Speciali (chef’s specials), see about the Lasagna pizza below.
Oh wait, make that five. There’s also a Dolci section, and guess what? It’s a pizza sandwich filled with Nutella.
From water to soda, wine, beer and cocktails, you’ll be drinking Italian only.
 The Cahuenga Boulevard location is tiny, with just a few tables, for twenty-five pizza lovers. The pies are served on rustic wooden planks. It can get very busy, so another way to enjoy a slice (a generous 5.5 by 7.5 inches) or a full pizza (an impressive 11 by 30 inches) is at home with friends and family, via takeout or delivery. The reheating instructions are clearly printed in each box. |
