A new pizza restaurant has moved into the space most recently occupied by Il Romanista.  You may recall that Il Romanista made headlines as LA’s first Roman-style pizza al taglio, or pizza baked in large rectangular pans and cut with scissors.  Don’t know what happened, but the space is now Allora Pizza.  Allora boasts a pizzaiolo with 20 years experience in the “finest restaurants in Italy and the US”.  This is the third pizza restaurant to occupy this location at 829 N. Douglas St.  We wish Allora the best of luck.
