Tartaglia designed the elegant white space, complete with luminous images of Rome and Italy drifting across a plasma screen, and he had a partner-in-pizza: chef Alessandro Scuderi.

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.

Take note of the late opening hours on Fridays and Saturdays, when the Italian ovens stay hot well into the night.
