Dawg House Pizza, Monrovia

When Dawg House Pizza first opened in 2001, it filled the old Methodist church on Main Street with the scents of freshly made dough baking in the oven. Now, Dawg House Pizza operates in a larger location four doors down from the original location, but it still serves up the same made-to-order pizzas, including The Bulldog pie, which is piled with four types of meat, veggies, and double cheese. Along with specialty pies, the chefs make calzones, strombolis, and breadsticks that are perfect for dunking in garlic sauce or reenacting that famous Star Wars scene when Luke and Darth Vader ate Italian food together.
