About Danny Boys
Inspired by the pizza of my childhood growing up in New York City, Danny Boy’s Famous Original is my answer to the enduring question: “where can I get a great New York style slice here in LA?”.
Danny Boy’s is the slice joint of my childhood dreams, reimagined to meet the exacting standards of today's discerning food-loving generation: Classic New York City style pizza, overstuffed hot hero sandwiches, and creative farm-fresh salads that aren’t an afterthought. All made with great ingredients, thoughtfully prepared with passion.
About Masa
Masa of Echo Park is a "Mom & Pop" family owned restaurant specializing in Chicago Deep Dish Pizza lovingly made by a born & raised Chicagoan.
When we started back in 2004 we had one goal - to feed your stomachs (and hopefully your souls) as there is no greater thing that brings people together than enjoying a meal with family and friends. Masa is all of these things - it is food, it is friendship - it is family - it is home.
Our greatest joys - first dates and chance meetings at Masa have turned into proposals, weddings celebrations & babies on the way. Inviting us to share in your lives has given such extraordinary meaning to ours. Heartfelt gratitude and love to all of you for truly making a dream come true.
Our Masa Family hopes you enjoy your dining experience as much as we enjoy having you. Eat, drink & be merry & don't forget to save room for dessert!

Our Policy
Our Policy All tickets are non-refundable. We can adjust your menu for dietary needs up to 72 hours prior without any additional cost. Wines can change without notice, failure or corked wines do not result in any type of credit or refund. We open one bottle minimum per paying guest, and can reduce the total number of bottles being opened so that the event does not have to cancel should ticket sales not reach potential. Fewer bottles will equal larger pours, so you will get the same quantity of wine and we always open the best wines for the quality of the event. Cancellation due to illness is understandable and appreciated, but does not qualify for a refund. If you are not well, you may ask for the food to be made available for togo or assign your seat to someone else without fee. The perishable nature of our product requires no cancellation, no credit, no refunds for any reason.
