Masa Of Echo Park Serves Angelenos Chicago Deep Dish Pizza

A traditional pizza pie, this first for many Californians can be found here in Echo Park

Masa of Echo Park, which opened in 2004, serves the community a variety of food including the illusive pizza pie: a traditional deep-dish pizza with the sauce on the top. 

As Manager Athena Lewis puts it, “a lot of time people think, ‘oh yeah, I can eat four pieces of pizza,’ but the reality is, can you eat four pieces of pie and that’s what this pizza is like. It’s like an actual pizza pie.”

But this restaurant does more than just serve pizza. A quick pop into the restaurant and you can find the monthly newsletter produced by one of the owners, Ronda Reynolds. You can read about their most recent community service efforts or Masa family news. Community service efforts include pet adoption and environmental sustainability. 

Lewis said patrons, who rescue a dog from the animal shelter and bring in the paperwork, can get 50 percent off of one meal and nearby businesses get a neighbor discount.
