How do we love thee, Quarter Sheets? Let us count the ways: This Echo Park shop serving Detroit-style–leaning pizza offers square slices with pillowy, flawless-hydration dough that practically springs back after every bite. The ratio of toppings to dough is always spot on, and so are the flavors—they range from the classics and expecteds (pepperoni with red sauce, basil and cheese) to weekly specials that always have us checking for entirely new creations, and some of our favorites, which we greet like an old friend whenever it’s their turn in the rotation again.

Not to be missed are desserts by Lindell’s partner, Hannah Ziskin, whose spectacular cakes, pies and cookies are worth ordering all on their own.
