TLDR - Pizza is very expensive, portions are small and toppings skimpy, they charge extra to use your debit card to pay. I placed a to go order for two large pizzas (a pepperoni and meatlover type) and came in to pick them up. The bill was 55.00 for two pizzas. I thought that was pretty expensive when I was ordering over the phone but thought, "they must be good sized pizzas" so I went ahead and ordered. They added a pretty high charge onto the bill for using my DEBIT card. I was shocked at that. When I asked why I was being charged extra for my debit card I was told that they charge for the usage of any card. WTF? Credit cards, I can kinda see since the business gets charged a per use fee, but a debit card? No. That is absolutely ridiculous. You have a product, you accept those forms of payment, and then you ADD a charge on because you would prefer cash? Not loving that, at all. Anyway, get the pizza back to where we are staying, open the box to find an "artisan" style pizza that is about the size of a legal pad. To add insult to injury, the toppings were very sparse and there was hardly any cheese on the pizza. If you are going to charge so much for pizza, how about not being skimpy on the toppings? I guess I am the outlier here or I should have dined in and had pasta instead of pizza. NOT impressed. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I came here expecting a decent meal and left wondering how this place is still open. The server, Lynn, had the most dismissive, unprofessional attitude I've ever encountered eye rolls, sighs, and an overall vibe that customers are a nuisance. The food? An insult to my taste buds and my wallet. What I got looked like it had been sitting under a heat lamp since last week. The photo says it all -- limp, greasy, and completely unappetizing oh and not to mention i was overcharged for my order. There are plenty of restaurants in town that actually care about their customers and serve food worth eating. This isn't one of them. Save yourself the disappointment and go literally anywhere else. read more

Cornerstone Italian Kitchen - this is their artichoke dip...mind you it had no artichoke in it.....it was completely filled with oil. - Bars Near Me - Ellensburg, Washington

Pizza was thick, almost Chicago style, with ample toppings. Ours had delicious Italian sausage fragrant with fennel, roasted garlic (whole cloves of creamy awesomeness), red onion, pesto and lots of mozzarella. Cheesy garlicky goodness, which was delicious with the very fairly priced Italian Valpolicella on their wine list. Our server was working the whole place alone but did a great job checking in and making sure we had everything we needed. We'll be back for sure. read more

Food looked good in pictures. does not look the same AT ALL in person. it taste like a highschool cafeteria pizza AND EVEN THEN Id probably pick the cafeteria pizza over this read more

Cornerstone Italian Kitchen - Their menu - Bars Near Me - Ellensburg, Washington

See all

Came for classic rock trivia. So fun! Staff & host were just great! Very lovely establishment. I'll be back.

Don't know if ownership changed or what, but this place is not what it once was. The pizza used to be good. Now it's mediocre pasta dishes. The pizzas don't have the same quality ingredients they used to. Very plain. The worst is the bar. There used to be very imaginative and tasty drinks, but now they've just odd. It's a shame. read more

We have eaten here several times and the service has just gotten worse. The food was just ok, we asked for more marinara sauce for our cheesy bread, it came out cold, we asked why they don't serve it warm, the server said he put it in the microwave... They have too many employees working, too much standing around and visiting. They looked like all teenage kids. It might be a while before we come in again. read more

stopped in for pizza on October 2nd, Great pizza! Waitress should use an ice scoop rather than using the glass, not plastic, glass to scoop ice for her large table. read more

Wouldn't seat us for dinner. We called ahead since it was a holiday and they said they were open until 7:30. We drive to town and we arrived by 6:00pm. They informed us that it was "take out" only and they wouldn't seat us. Unfortunately we won't return. read more

The food was very tasty and the portions were large enough to take home for another meal. Very comfortable atmosphere and our server, Aaliyah, was just wonderful. Definitely will come back next time we are in the area. read more

Cornerstone Italian Kitchen - Yummy antipasto- this was after we ate some! - Bars Near Me - Ellensburg, Washington

We actually went there twice in one week! Both visits were awesome! Service, food and ambiance all on point. We are happy that the pizza is still as amazing as it always has been and the addition of pasta is welcomed! Keep up the good work! read more

I stopped by for Happy Hour and was pleasantly surprised. I had a craft cocktail (House of Camillo) and a glass of cab, the bruschetta and a caprese salad. All the ingredients were super fresh and delicious. Their pizzas look amazing too. Service was very pleasant, I was greeted immediately. And the server made enough small talk but not too much. I'm from out of town, but if I ever come back, I'll be sure to stop by again. read more

This review is overdue since we dined here in February. We were in town for Winterhop and planned to go to Cornerstone for pizza. We knew there were new owners but had not visited since the ownership change. It was snowing hard, we walked in and were greeted warmly by a hostess, who later we discovered is their General Manager Jessie. She led us to a table in the newly renovated dining room where a gentleman was playing the piano. The dining room changes are fantastic, warm lighting, pretty place settings and the piano was very inviting. By the way the piano player Dan is Jessie's Dad. He is excellent! We ordered pizza, which was great, but the new menu has so many other options that looked amazing when served to other diners. We will be back to give them a try.They have a nice cocktail , wine and beer list too. Jessie came by a few times during our meal and chatted with us. You can really tell she is passionate about making this restaurant a special place....still welcoming those of us in jeans and snow boots! If you have never been or haven't been since the change I recommend giving it a try! read more

Love this resteraunt. Wonderful food and excellent service. Relaxed atmosphere and we love the outdoor seating when the weather permits.

We had a great dinner here. The outdoor dining area is great. We had pizzas and pasta and they were all delicious. A really nice wine selection too. Jensen was our server and he gave great recommendations for wine and food, and was wonderful. We will definitely come back next time we are in Ellensburg. read more

We had wanted to try this place since they opened. Not impressed. The cosmo cocktail was one of the top ten worst I have had. Very bland and I only got 1/2 a glass. My husband and I split the bruschetta for an appt and the bread was so soggy it fell apart. I had the claim chowder as my entree and the cease salad. When I asked the waitress what the soup of the day was she did not know and had to check. I then asked if it was New England or Manhattan she did not know what that was as well. This soup was ok, but I make better at home. As for the salad it had cherry tomatoes and pepperoncinis on it. My husband had the chicken Marsala, never seen it serviced over ravioli. Don't think we will be going back here. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Me and my girlfriend have been going here consistently for the past year. We enjoyed their spinach and artichoke dip and crem brulee but instantly noticed the lack of consistency in their food. When we would order two dips they would clearly split one dip into two bowls, when asked for extra bread they would forget and often times give us stale bread. However our love for their artichoke dip remained. Until today, when we placed an order of artichoke dip and extra bread. They gave us a bowl of oil and pesto and LESS than a normal bread order. I'm not one to complain about food service as I know it can be difficult but what we got was blatant disrespect, this place does not respect their customers at all not even to the point of giving them EDIBLE food. This is my first negative food review I've written and hopefully it is my last. ** you can probably find my girlfriends review it's with the picture of green goop that was supposed to be our artichoke dip. read more
