I tried Reno's for the first time the other night and I don't see the appeal. The prices are comparable to many other actual pizzerias (not talking about Domino's, or Pizza Hut), but the quality/taste is subpar. Some reviews here say that Reno's is "scrumptious", or "some true Italian pizzeria", but I disagree wholeheartedly. Fernanda's NY Style Pizza is a couple of blocks East down Ventura and they are hands down one of the best pizza places in the Valley. They're authentic NY pizza, their prices are reasonable, and the quality of ingredients can be tasted in their food. My friends and I ordered an extra large sausage, olive, and basil pizza from Reno's and we all found bits of some calcified fragments when eating our slices; likely bone from the ground up sausage. That's disgusting! Reno's tag line is, "You haven't lived unless you've tried Reno's", well I don't suspect I'll live much longer if I continue to have Reno's. Hard pass.
This place is fantastic. I wa sin town for Universal and needed some quality food that wasn't at the hotel....this was a grand slam!
Love the food. The staff is great. The owner who took my order was hilarious and joked with me about my "anchovy pizza" to see if I was paying attention. Thanks for the laugh!! Pizza is phenomenal! High quality ingredients. I live around the corner and you will be seeing me a whole lot more!
From out of town for a few days in Studio City and looked for non chain family owned pizza place. Read reviews first, almost all good, just a few 1 star which were obviously fake or otherwise tainted not grounded in reality. Ordered pizza to go (Supreme and Meatlovers) and garden salad. Ordered an XL and L and owner (Nick) upgraded the L to an XL (no extra charge). Went in to pickup and Nick was working the register. What an authentic character with a bit of a dry humor. Paid cash and left a small tip and he also threw in a "road" beer to go at no charge. Glad picked this spot and pizza was pretty damn good too. Would definitely go back again if in the area. Love supporting local. Thanks Nick you and your pizza made my night.
We were in the area as we had just left universal studios. I am so extremely glad we came in here. Im the die hard pepperoni pizza girl but when we came in here Rene approached us to take our order and he told us we were going to have the best pizza, well he wasnt lying. He suggested half Renos Supreme half Alfredo. Let me just finish with the fact that there were no slices left shortly after. We are from Texas but will make sure to squeeze in a trip out specifically for this place in the future
