Burattino Brick Oven Pizza

There is a new pizzeria in Carson that is sure to bring in a lot of new customers. Its 337k followers on Instagram think so. While it is not yet open, it is aiming for April 1 as its opening date.

With a variation of culinary gourmet meats, stretchy cheese, and black garlic-infused marinara, owner Lee Kim makes it clear that this is not a fancy establishment but a neighborhood joint with a gourmet twist. This Korean-owned restaurant is ready to welcome its Carson residents to a new pizzeria experience ready for every season. But if you’re not craving pizza, that’s okay, because Burattino’s signature calzone and hot wings are available to eat. While you wait for its grand opening in April, you can stop by its San Pedro location.
