Good Italian food moderately priced with emphasis on the pizza...westside preferably
I'm looking for a 'go-to' place, preferably on the Westside Beverly HIlls area, that serves good Italian food with the emphasis on great pizza.
Please don't mention Mulberry's because I've never found it that impressive although it's namedropped, by people who think they know what good pizza is, like it was the only pizza worth eating. Vito's is fine but their dishes, aside from the pizza, aren't that great in my opinion.
Is there somewhere that's just a casual, moderately priced, place that has a loyal following I'm unaware of?
Thanks in advance.

Toscanova in the Century City Mall. Havent' tried it yet, but walked by yesterday and saw a large, nicely browned, cheezy pizza on someone's table...it looked beautiful! Check out the review. http://www.la.com/restaurant-reviews/...

antica pizzaria in marina del rey.
they are located on the second floor of a shopping center (over the gelsons market).
they have a wood-fired pizza oven and the owner is a member of the naples pizza-maker's association (whatever that means)
i have always enjoyed their pizza (extremely thin crust) and feel that the ingredients they use are top flight.
they import their flour from italy.
i've had their grilled vegetables, served with cheese and i've liked it.
others with whom i've dined have enjoyed their pasta dishes, but i don't care for creamy sauces nor meat and it seems to me that many of their sauces contain cream and/or meat -
