Goodbye Joe’s Pizza, Hello Mr. Pizza In Century City… The first Of 15?

Posted on August 26, 2015 by toddrickallen

The Century City Shopping Center is a flurry of activity lately. Half of the shopping complex has completely closed down to make way for the construction of an über-chic replacement including the much-anticipated West Coast debut of the mythic Eataly. But the rising tide doesn’t seem to be floating all boats. Iconic New York pie maker Joe’s Pizza has closed its outpost in the food court. And wasting no time whatsoever, it looks like a branch of the Korean pizza giant, Mr. Pizza will be replacing it this Fall. Incidentally, signs posted around the mall indicate that there will be no less than 15 new restaurants in the sparkling new shopping center. I’ll keep watching…

Century City Shopping Center Torn Apart; See’s Moves Locations

Posted on August 10, 2015 by toddrickallen

In what must be the final push before the new section is added, almost half of the Westfield Century City Shopping Center has now closed. The new $800 million dollar facelift will include the addition of the upcoming Eataly that many of us have been patiently waiting for, with its “rooftop birreria bar and 360◦ panoramic city views”, according to the Westfield website. One of the casualties of the closures was the quiet corner location of See’s Candies. But fear not, chocoholics. See’s is getting a brand new, more conspicuous location near Breadbar, giving Godiva, only a few feet away, a bit of competition. Check out the vision of the sparkling new mall here.

Another Wetzel’s Down For The Count…

Posted on July 22, 2015 by toddrickallen

Is popular doughy treat shop Wetzel’s Pretzels pulling out of the Westside? Back in December of last year, I noticed that the branch at Santa Monica Place had disappeared. And now, the Wetzel’s in the Century City Shopping Center has quietly slipped out of its first floor location. Not sure what’s going on, but I’ll keep watching. If you find that life holds no meaning without their signature salty Bavarian-inspired snacks, locate another branch here.

Juice Served Here Arriving Soon In Century City, Santa Monica

Another day, another juice bar in West LA. Apparently Westsiders can’t get enough. The latest? Rapidly expanding chain Juice Served Here is moving into the Westfield Century City Shopping Center as evidenced by the recently installed window announcements. Offering a menu that is cold-pressed, organic, and local, JSH is wasting no time moving across LA with many more upcoming locations including one at Wilshire and 6th in Santa Monica, Culver City, Beverly Hills, and Studio City. Read more about the “never conventional” company and find a location near you here.

Which Wich Disappears In CC

Posted on March 12, 2015 by toddrickallen

It looks like the Century City Shopping Center’s very own outlet of the do-it-yourself sandwich chain Which Wich has quietly slipped out of the famously capricious food court. Sadly, the little restaurant was only open a little less that a year and a half. Could it be due to competition from Greenspan’s Grilled Cheese pop-up (which by-the-way will be closing April 15th)? No word on what will be replacing this devastating loss but I’ll keep watching…

Tonight (Wednesday, March 11th), at 7pm, Obica in the Century City Shopping Center is hosting a Giropizza Party. What exactly does that mean? For $30 (beverage and tax not included), you well get a slice of every pizza that rolls out of the oven until you cry for mercy.

Earlier in the week I told you about a new Vietnamese restaurant’s anticipated opening in the Westfield Century City Shopping Center. Good to their word, NiBi Pho Bistro is now up and running in the food court. With one other restaurant in the city of Commerce, you can check out their Facebook page here.
