Pomodoro Gone, Pitfire to Move in

Pitfire Artisan Pizza plans to open a location in Manhattan Beach later this year.

Pitfire Artisan Pizza will open in downtown Manhattan Beach in December where Pomodoro Cucina Italiana restaurant once operated.

The pizza company runs restaurants in North Hollywood, downtown Los Angeles, Westwood, Mar Vista and West Hollywood. Its new location will open at 401 Manhattan Beach Blvd., the company announced.

“Not only is the Manhattan Beach space centrally located in the heart of downtown, the beach community’s culinary scene has continued to evolve, and its family-focused, tight-knit neighborhood makes it the perfect fit for us,” said Paul Hibler, co-founder of the pizza firm, in a press release.
