Craftsman Wood Fired Pizza

About Us

In 1933, an original Craftsman, Nikola Rasic, brought his vision and skills to Los Angeles and opened Nick’s Café on Sunset Blvd. The concept was simple and was truly hand-crafted labor of food, hospitality, and service provided to the people of Southern California. The next generation of Craftsman opened just down the street in 1958 and Nikola’s became known as a Southern California landmark for the next 30 years. Brothers Walt, Pete, and Nick worked from behind the counter while Mama cooked up the daily specials and greeted guests and regulars as they walked through the back kitchen door.
