- pizzaMy experience at this restaurant was casual and delicious. I had the Caesar salad and a slice of pizza. The Caesar salad had the right amount of garlic, which I loved!
- foodMy experience at this restaurant was fantastic. Oscar, Ocean, and the entire team provided excellent food and customer service. It truly felt like the whole shebang.
- crustEvery ingredient was so fresh. The crust was nice and thin with just the right balance of soft and crispy, and the cheese and toppings just melt in goodness. We ate at the neighboring Patterson Wine Tasting Room (PS folks, yes these neighbors are cool with sharing space and they even deliver the food to you which is so kind!) with some friends originally from Europe and THEY were impressed with the food.
- toppingsLast night was my first time at this restaurant, and I'm definitely coming back! The pizza was delicious with so many toppings to choose from. They were super busy when I arrived, yet Fernando made sure we were taken care of.

Frequently criticized
- crustI ordered it well done, and it was literally hard as a rock. It also tasted like those bread sticks you get at the salad bar, and I really need a chewy crust. If the crust were improved, I would consider returning, but I've been burned twice now.
- Caprese saladthis small, thrown together caprese seems kind of absurd
- pizzapizza was tepid in temp upon arrival
- Corsaand corsa

- waiterthe waiter ignored me for five minutes

- good reviewsfelt very disappointing since we saw the good reviews before coming in

- orderI ordered and was given a time of 12: 05 to 12: 10. At 12: 16, I was told they didn’t have my order. I was very frustrated, but instead of resolving the issue, the check-out man blamed my bad mood and told me I’d ruined his day.
- ordering and servingonly one person who was doing all of the ordering and serving
- paper plates, utensils, parm/crushed red pepperswhich didn’t arrive
- pizza on timeI was very frustrated, but instead of resolving the issue, the check-out man blamed my bad mood and told me I’d ruined his day. I’m pretty sure cooking a pizza on time shouldn’t be too much for a pizza place. I left without my order and out $30.
- staffHorrible staff
If you're looking for a place with genuinely friendly and attentive service, this spot is definitely worth a try, especially with staff members like Oscar making a real difference. Just be mindful that on occasion, you might encounter some longer wait times or minor ordering hiccups.

Frequently criticized
- priceSomehow the system shows this place running 10-20. The only thing you can get for 10-20 without no tip is soft drinks.

- delivery feedelivery fee of $12

- random $1 chargerandom $1 charge that just says “fee”
If you're looking for a good deal, focus on their lunch specials and specific pizza and drink combos, as these seem to offer the best bang for your buck. However, be wary of delivery fees and unexpected charges, as these can quickly add up and make the overall experience feel overpriced.

Huge Calzone, Delicious Pesto!
I was craving calzones and decided to order dinner from this place. It was a dark, early Seattle evening, and I just didn't feel like cooking. I ordered the Super Sprint calzone and the pesto al pollo pasta.
The calzone, priced over $20, was enormous – it came in a pizza box! I've never seen a calzone this size before. It was generously filled with quality ricotta and Mama Lil’s peppers.
Their pesto is fantastic, and the pasta arrived home still hot, very well-packed, and even included garlic bread. Everything was delicious. I visited on a weekday around 4 pm, and it was very quiet.
This spot is in a really cool, unique warehouse space in SODO, surrounded by wineries and a seltzery. Please support these guys. Pesto forever!
