Mozza might be some of the best pizza I've ever had stateside. Perhaps they've just got it right from the wood-burning oven to the ingredients to the traditional Italian style. We had a late dinner here on a Friday night. We were led into the cozy, candlelit wine room and started off with some citrus-y drinks, an Anderson Valley Blood Orange Gose and Julian Hard Cider Harvest Apple.

$32 Bone Marrow al forno:
This is probably the most generous serving of bone marrow I have ever seen. Three bones were stacked on top of each other next to buttery grilled toast, some cilantro, and sea salt. The bread was so buttery and crunchy and good on its own, but that didn't stop the gelatinous marrow from being the star, and a little sprinkle of sea salt only enhanced all the flavors.

$18 Egg, Bacon, Yukon Gold Potato, Fontina, Sottocenere & Cippolini Onions:
I gotta say the dough is probably the best part, very thin with thick, golden brown crust. The egg was baked perfectly with a very runny center. The bacon was arranged in strips and potatoes were in thick slices. Perhaps the potato would have been even better if it was thinly sliced and crunchy. This would make an amazing breakfast pizza, that is if you want to splurge on breakfast.

$20 Bacon, Salame, Fennel Sausage, Guanciale, Tomato & Mozzarella:
This is your classic meat pizza. Also very very good with thin, soft, chewy dough and a crisp crust.

$13 Gelati - Pistachio, Olive Oil, Hazelnut w/ Pizzelle:
Lastly some delicious gelati to finish the meal and also something cold to help cleanse the palate.

Just thinking about the food is making me crave some pizza. The service was also great, super friendly. I would love to return to try their non-pizza dishes too.
