Service - YES. Food - YES. Drinks - YES!!! I cannot believe it took me so long to come here, but I will not wait nearly as long to come back. The list of specialty pizzas is huge, and you can order any of them on gluten free crust. I am also a ranch dipper with pizza, and their house made ranch is to die for. We sat at a high top in the bar area, and the bartender was the coolest dude ever. I LOVED this place and I'm excited to enjoy their patio once it warms up outside.
Been here a few times actually so very surprised to see I haven't written a review. Some of the best tasting pizza in Richmond and honestly probably the best pizza dough in the area as well. Last time we were there, we ordered the carne asada fries the fig and pig pizza and a beet and burrata salad. The carne asada fries are awesome and the fig and pig pizza has always been my favorite pizza since the first time I came here. I didn't like the salad much though to be honest. I love beets and burrata but the pesto as a dressing just wasn't my favorite. The salad was a little bland and dry. Everything else was amazing and the service and overall vibe of the place is pretty great too.
Came here recently with a friend as a prelude to our evening a while back and it was absolutely outstanding. Amazing pizzas, and without question the best mozzarella sticks I have ever had in my life. I would drive here just to eat those sticks again, and I cannot recommend them enough. The Spicy Goat and the Fig & Pig merit their own praise too, I love uncommon flavor pairings and these both worked incredibly well. I did not drink on this occasion, yet they have a fully-stocked bar with some solid options there. The service was good and attentive, though we came at a fairly empty time (only about five other guests there at the time). Prices were what you might expect, though honestly I felt they were worth it. I would absolutely recommend this place as a date night spot, it seemed very geared toward that kind of ambiance. Being close to Carytown, parking is a little touch and go here, though that's really the only downside I can think of here. Well worth coming here and I hope you do! Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars ---- Pros: - Absolutely amazing food, with incredible pizzas and the world's best mozzarella sticks. - Good service. - Nice ambiance for friend hangouts or dates. Cons: - Parking around here is tough but that kind of comes with the territory.
We decided to try this as it's close to many venues. The craft beer choices are wonderful and the made to order selection excellent. Customer service is some of the best. They had a ton of help on hand. So why only 4 Stars.... Guys pizza is subjective. I love cheese! You are NOT getting that here. I had a shaving at best. Where is the cheese pull? The toppings were not top quality in taste either. However, the pizza dough... excellent, authentic and tasty. I just wanted more drip.
A coworker told me about this pizza place and said it was her favorite. My husband loves pizza! I chose the fig and pig but honestly had a hard time deciding which one I would get. It did not disappoint but I cannot wait to come back and try the others that I had on my radar. We will definitely be back. It was so nice today sitting outside too. Very nice server, great experience.
Came here for lunch one weekend and was pretty impressed! It's a very casual neighborhood pizza spot (that also offers different pastas, sandwiches, and tacos) with really creative and diverse flavors and toppings. We ordered the toasted nacho ravioli to start because it sounded unique - it was a good choice, as the ravioli was crispy with flavorful breading on the outside and creamy, tangy nacho cheese with a slight kick stuffed inside. Dipped in marinara sauce, these were addicting! For pizza, we got the Bianca with Potatoes and Rosemary (creamy, satisfying, unique, tasty) and the Drunk Grandma but replaced the mozzarella with ricotta (vodka sauce was so good, replacing with ricotta was a good idea because it was so creamy and smooth). We were really satisfied with the meal and would definitely come back, especially for takeout pizza.
Today was busy at lunch! The food is consistently delicious. It can be a challenge on food turnaround if you only get an hour for lunch. Had the Sicilian sub today and it was tasty and massive. We also had the Jumbo Stuffed Tots as a starter. Pretty good. We'll be back. Check them out!
I checked out fire and hops one evening when I was craving pizza. It was my first visit, and when I walked in the first thing I noticed was the pizza oven that faces the entrance. It was pretty cool to see. I was dining solo so I sat at the bar. There are both low top and high top tables as well as seating directly at the bar. The bartender was super friendly and made the delicious suggestion of a pizza that they are running a special on. It was pepperoni with pesto and a drizzle of hot honey. Absolutely delicious! I also ordered a glass of sangria. That was pretty tasty. I can't wait to go back and check out some of their other menu items.
Look, I'm not a mozzarella stick guy but after eating takeout from here? I just might be. UNREAL. I don't know what it was - the monstrous size, the crispy oily exterior, or the delectable cheese filling... all the above? They were perfect. We also ordered the Drunken Grandma, which was a hit amongst friends, as well as The Spicy Goat, which was gone within seconds it was so good. Just the right amont of tang to go with each bite of savory pepperoni, loved the crunch of the crust and the perfect char on it. Honestly think I found a new favorite pizza in RVA?
Love the apps!! the pizzas were pretty good but a little on the pricey side for the size. the happy hour is pretty good (love that it's everyday!) the staff was super friendly and attentive. loved the outdoor seating area, very clean!!

Great spot for lunch! Love the cozy patio and the inside has been renovated and looks amazing! So sleek and clean! The brick oven is the focal point of this cool eatery, but has a modern bar area. There's a small parking lot available and street parking. You know how Carytown parking can be. The service here was on point and the food was tasty! My friend and I shared some apps and a personal sized pizza but it was big enough for two! I love the Neapolitan style pizza! The wings were juicy and crispy! We've actually been here when this space was other restaurants, and I must say, I hope this one is here to stay! read more

Had the pizza, mozzarella sticks and ice cream sandwich for dessert. Tried the Aslin Volcano Sauce (Sour) and Legend Winter White (Belgium White) to drink. All delicious. Olivia was so personable and service was extremely fast. Great experience for our family. read more
I actually don't live in the area and in town on a Sunday with 3 other people. Tough to find a place with a picky eater. This place had good reviews so we stopped. Such a cute little place - nicely decorated....great vibe. Most everyone was outside so we had the place to ourselves. You gotta love a place that has HH on Sunday. We ordered 2 pizzas - the margarita and we did a create your own with onions and meatballs. We also got chips and guac. Pizza came out really fast. They are on the smaller side so 2 pizzas for 4 women was perfect. Loved the thin crust. They were both delicious. The chips and guac was good. The guac was very mild. The only thing was the dip to chip ratio. We had lots of leftover chips and no dip. More guac? Or maybe some salsa too? We also ordered the tiramisu which was ok. I didn't care for the hersheys syrup on top. Not very authentic but still good. We had great service from Juan. Very friendly. Cool little pizza place - if I lived in town I would go back more often. read more
I've walked by here many times and liked the atmosphere of it, especially the outside seating. We shared the beets and burrata salad and the margarita pizza; they were both ok, but nothing special about them. But the reason I'm giving this place 2 stars was because of the questionable service! The server asked us if we're ready to order or wanna chitchat with him?!! Like what? read more

This place was amazing, and I can't wait to go back to try more items on the menu. Wonderful experience, atmosphere, and service. Don't miss out on the bread pudding!! read more
first visit was a little crazy cause I wasn't sure if this was a kid friendly restaurant( no kids menu but kid friendly options) my second visit was delightful I went alone one evening. the food was mouth watering I enjoyed a hot toddy which was perfect on a coo evening. the oyster tacos had me licking my fingers. I'll be back for happy hours the wine, and beer selections are very nice and affordable. I ordered the thia wings to go for work. read more
Not bad. My friend and I decided to try this spot out during our lunch break since I've seen some pretty delicious Instagram pics. There was plenty of parking around lunch time and we were seated pretty quickly when we got there. The service did take some time before we could put in our order but luckily we put in the order for the mozzarella sticks! When I looked over the menu, the name of the place pretty much says what it's known for, but I was more drawn to the sandwiches that they have on the menu. It looks like it has changed since the photos of the menu has been uploaded on here, but since I'm slightly on this whole Spicy Fried chicken mood lately, I decided to try out their Nashville Hot sandwich and my friend got their Sicilian Hoagie, we also both got the green mixed salad as a side since we were treating ourselves to the Mottz sticks. Holy crap...have you seen the size of those Mottz sticks? They came out in an order of 5 and were gigantic. I was only able to eat two and was already starting to to get sorta full before our orders came out. Our food came out in no time afterwards and talk about a great presentation. I am so glad they offered the green mixed side as an option cause lord knows I need that before eating that sandwich. That sandwich was pretty big for just one person. After eating the green side, I was only able to eat half of the sandwich. I loved the spiciness that it had with each bite and would have to say that I foresee myself ordering this sandwich again on my cheat days. I was able to save the other half of the sandwich for my hubby to enjoy at home with the left over 1 Mottz stick haha. The Mottz stick and the Nashville Hot Sandwich is probably what I would recommend for newcomers to come here and try. I feel that when I looked at the menu, it reminds me of 23rd and Main and I didn't really crave anything off from their pizza menu. Service was alright for the lunch rush. I'd like to come here during their happy hour one day and try out their cocktails. Overall, the place is clean, service is okay, staff are friendly, and not bad for a lunch date from the office. read more

We loved the Bianca pizza and Spicy Goat pizza, but what made it so special was our waiter - I wish I knew his name. He was so thoughtful and attentive, and gave the bet recommendations. We got to sit outside and enjoy nice weather on the patio. read more

Just got out of church on a Sunday and decided we were in the mood for pizza. The restaurant has a somehow cute and kind of cozy vibe but it was completely empty at lunch time and remained that way until we finished our meal. I ordered an individual pizza named figs & pigs because I love the sweet and savory combination and it definitely delivered on that. It was delicious, the crust was thin, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Being someone with stomach issues I found it not very heavy even if it was a lot of food. My wife got the Spicy goat and she really enjoyed it, there was also a sweet vs savory factor there with the honey. Her only complaint was the oiliness of it and the lack of a flavor to the crust. If you are gluten intolerant they also have a gluten free option for a up charge. Last but not least we ordered for desert a nightingale ice cream sandwich with my wife choosing the classic Cookie Monster and I chose the Fat banana. Both are fenomenal but we could tell they had freezer burn as they didn't taste as 'fresh'. Price wise it was a bit salty but nothing exaggerated. My conclusion was that I would definitely come back for that pizza! read more

Wow!!! I saw this place pop up in my Uber eats and decided to give it a try. I was in the mood for some pasta so I decided to order the house pasta and mozzarella sticks. Hands down the best mozzarella sticks I ever had, the picture doesn't do it justice, you gotta try these, they came in a larger box than I'm use to for mozzarella sticks and when I opened the box I saw why! They're a lot larger than you typical corner pizza parlor mozzarella sticks, sooooo good and very cheesy! Now the pasta, delicious, I'm so glad I have this place a shot. I can't wait to try the pizza! read more
My boyfriend and best friend enjoyed their regular pizzas and thought they were very good. I enjoyed the parts of my gluten free pizza that weren't burnt.... you can see in the photo that the outside edge of my pizza was pretty black, which was disappointing and seemed like whoever cooked it left it in for too long. I'm surprised nobody working had an issue with serving such a burnt pizza crust. I would try their pizza again since the flavors were good overall and the atmosphere was cute. read more
Love this place! Both indoor and outdoor areas are great. Love the atmosphere and decor. And the pizza was VERY good. We were pleasantly surprised. I gave the pizza at 8.2/10 and my boyfriend gave it a 7.2/10 (he's a harsh critic). I'm also a ranch snob and could tell theirs is made in house and not premade. We will definitely be back! :) read more

We ordered to go and had the meatball, fig and pig, and capricciosa. Pizzas are all individual size. The meatball pizza has a sweet taste to it. I think it was the spicy drizzle. If you like your pizza slightly sweet, then this is a good one to get. I like the fig and pig out of the three we got. Has a nice balance of flavors. Not too sweet, but yet still very savory. The gorgonzola cheese goes well with the other ingredients and is not too overpowering. The Capricciosa was just ok. Crust was on the chewy side. read more

After an irritating time looking for parking on Cary Street, we saw this place, decided to try it. And what luck?!! There was one vacant spot a few feet away. When we got to the place we saw that they have parking. Oh well that is good to know. And good to know too that they have Happy Hour. The place is casual, cozy and the price is very right. Servers were friendly. We ordered their Vegana pizza, Mahi Mahi tacos and Strawberry Salad (just right for 3) which were all sooo good. read more

4.5 Food is great! Pizza amazing, cheese sticks are first rate! Cobb salad was really good, but....bacon (even from a bag) can be crisped up. Bowl is ridiculously bad. Half star ding for service. Friendly server, but not one single drink refill. read more

I went here on a date with my SO. We chose to sit outside, but we got sat right by the door. Which is fine, but wouldn't have been my first choice, especially since we were the only ones out there at first. However, as a host I understand, that's just how rotation is some nights. I wasn't bothered enough to ask to move. Just a little busy/distracting. It was good. I got the Margherita pizza with goat cheese. Came out super was fast. We got order some cocktails, both the cosmo and bloody navel are great. It was pricey for what it was is my only complaint. For two small personal pizzas and two drinks. I know I could get more bang for my buck at many places for more upscale food. However, this spot is super cute with a nice feel. I wouldn't be opposed to returning. read more
A sturdy 4.35. First time in since the switch from lowly Stuzzi. The space was recognizable but noticeably different, for the better. The esthetics of everything was improved, from the bar to the dining furnishings. The place was much busy, much busier than any meal I had at Stuzzi, which was a good sign. My better half and I were sat right away to our surprise at a nice little two top high table near the bar and were instantly greeted by our waiter. Service was noticeably great. Our waiter, Chris, not only was very friendly and attentive but very knowledgeable of the menu and offered plenty of suggestions to help us narrow down the great choices when it came to the food or beer menu. The beer menu was pretty solid. I'll be curious to see the rotation of beers they have between now and the next visit. As a beer guy, I like out of town variety. Now for the food. We started with the Beet & Burrata Salad which was awesome. If you like arugula, beets and most of all the cheesy goodness that is a ball of burrata then you will love this simply well made salad. We followed with the Cappricciosa and "Spicy Goat" (blend of mozzarella and goat cheese, pepperoni and hot honey drizzle) pizzas. The latter was not listed but was rather a suggestion by our killer waiter Chris. I was very curious to see the most important ingredient and how it would hold up to the toppings, the crust, and it passed with flying colors. For this wood fired pizza this is great stuff. A dry crispy bottom from point to crust with a slight chewiness to match, without the crust being too filling. I'll leave it like this, plain and simple, this place is really good and I expect it will do well here if the experience we had is consistent going forward. See y'all soon! read more

Hmmmm so I really want to give it 4 stars.... but I just couldn't. We came with friends so there was a total of 6 of us. There may have been some slight renovations done from Stuzzi before switching over to Fire and Hops. I always liked Stuzzi but it was still never my favorite pizza spot. There is a good beer selection if you love some craft beer! I had a Wicked Weed beer... yummy! The pizza at Fire & Hops was okay. We love Sergio's on the south side (one of the co owners of Fire &Hops) and actually think the regular Sergio's pizza is better. We ordered their handbreaded homemade cheese sticks. Same ones we love at Sergio's. I highly recommend them!!! As for our actual meal my girlfriend made her own pizza, her husband and mind both got the Diavola Hot red pepper oil, soppresata piccante, arugula, mozzarella, parmigiano. I agree with them that the flavor was good and great spice but the middle of the pizza was completely soggy so it made it not very enjoyable. I got the Fig and Pig Mozzarella, gorgonzola cheese, fig preserves, prosciutto di parma, mozzarella, romano and a balsamic reduction drizzle (no sauce). It was good if you like the salty/sweet combination. I would say it leaned more on the top sweet with the sweet balsamic and the figs... so I can't say I would get it again. I had a little bit of sogginess in the middle of my pizza but not as bad as my husband's. My daughter and son split the Cheese pizza. That was also a little soggy. Not sure if they didn't cook the pizzas long enough or what. I'll be honest, I think the cooking of the pizza needs to be longer or adjusted some how to prevent the sogginess. If not... stick with what works... as I said, I love Sergio's pizza on the south side. Not sure if I would go back anytime soon as there are so many other pizza places I know I love as well as beer places. Sad but true. read more

I wish I could give five stars because our food was amazing BUT our waiter was so terrible it threw off the entire meal and killed the vibe! One positive with our waiter was he recommended the mozzarella sticks for an appetizer and he was right - they were amazing! These are not your average "cheese sticks". We ordered the meatball pizza and it was also great. It had house-made meatballs, chilies, ricotta and a honey drizzle. Even though our waiter sucked we'll definitely be back, but we'll make sure we don't have the same waiter. read more

I was looking for pizza in Richmond. Overwhelmed with choices, I asked a coworker that was familiar with the area. They recommended many places, but at the top of their list was Fire and Hops. I decided to give the pizza joint a shot. FANTASTIC brick oven pizza in the heart of the fan. Monster sized mozz sticks with an amazing staff ready to serve. I had a great experience at this establishment and highly recommend their pizza. Kudos to Mark S. for the cordial service. read more

Recently enjoyed lunch on the patio with my little one. We shared a lunch size pizza and subbed fries for the side salad. Pizza was great; crisp crust and full of flavor and the arugula made it even better. And the fries - omg! Homemade fries are where it's at and hard to find these days - dipping them in the balsamic we put on our pizza was next level. Looking forward to going back with the whole family and trying more. Our server, Ashley, was splendid, too. Also, the patio tables and chairs are painted the cutest colors (it's the small things). Definitely recommend!! read more
I recently moved into the Carytown area and saw this place while walking along Main Street (or it might be Ellwood Avenue here...not sure). It's not on the main strip with a lot of other restaurants but it is definitely worth checking out. I tried their kale salad, with strawberries, goat cheese and candied pecans. Yum!! I got the champagne vinaigrette as my dressing, and loved it. Then I tried their fig and prosciutto pizza, and it was delicious. The fig adds a nice sweetness while the prosciutto gives it the saltiness I like. The crust was thin and perfectly cooked. Our server was great, and they have happy hour specials, including $2 off wine and beer. What's not to love about that?! read more
