“Gjelina has my favorite pizza anywhere – The Marinara. It’s vegan, and even without the cheese it puts everyone else to shame.” Daphne Oz (Host, The Chew)
“Last week I was in LA, and ate at the pizza restaurant Gjelina in Venice. The pizza is really extraordinary, but the small plates were also impressive—the veggies, gnocchi, roast corn.
