    Margherita Pizza
    Payton H.

    This pizza place has some pretty damning reviews particularly of the service, however, my experience was positive. I came for the happy hour shortly after 5pm on a Friday and there was ample seating. The workers were friendly to me. One thing to note is that the website says they have $7 Margherita pizzas - they are now $10 (still a great deal). The pizza itself was spectacular and was larger than I expected. The crust was lightly chewy and not too burnt. The sauce was bursting with fresh tomato flavor and the mozzarella cheese complimented everything perfectly. I will be back for more great pizza!

    The space and staff were welcoming. We placed our order and grabbed the booth near the nude women mentioned in a previous review. Lol, my spouse thought there'd be pinups everywhere but while some of the drawings and paintings at the booth had uncovered breasts it was definitely art in my book. I wanted the woman stabbing radicchio for own walls. Back to pizza, the crust was excellent. The sausage pizza was delicious the pesto pizza was ok. The hazelnut spread was too acidic and covered the other flavors. Still, the crust was legit Neapolita.

    Absolutely hands down, the best pizza I have ever tasted. So flavorful and amazing crust, that wood fired oven, wow! It was the best I have had, I travel extensively across the county for work, and I love visiting pizza joints, so when I tell you it's good, Go and see for yourself!!

    Top Burrata, bottom pepperoni

    After visiting little Conejo, my girlfriend and I wanted to give Nonavo Pizza a try. My girlfriend got the burrata pizza and I got the pepperoni. Both pizza were cooked to perfection, the crust was nice, thin and crispy and delightful to eat. My girlfriend was a huge fan of her burrata, saying she would overall give it a 4/5 because she thought it was a little too soggy and the toppings kept falling off. I was not a huge fan of pepperoni. I felt like the tomato sauce was too watery. Also, I'm still not sure that my pepperonis were in fact pepperonis. I ordered pepperoni and the waiter said it was pepperoni, but it looked and tasted like ham to me. You can look at the picture and be your own judge. For those two reasons I would give my pizza a 3/5. The inside was decorated nicely and it was very clean. The wait staff was also very pleasant.

    Three pizzas, including the special this week: corn, shishito and cotija pizza with basil & tomatoes

    I love this place! Best pizza in the Vancouver/Portland area. The flavors are always delicious, and the food is gorgeous too! Owner is often working and has great specials and a very welcoming vibe.

    Service is terrible. The employees and owner are rude. I will not be back. Sadly the food is good but the atmosphere is bad. So many other great pizzas places in the area with get customer service. Also look up the owners name with the word arrest charges. (Pls don't bring your children here)

    The current menu. My food came out and I forgot to get a pic before I demolished it. Great happy hour prices!!

    Passed by this place on my way leaving the movies and decided to stop in and give it a try. The atmosphere was great, the service was quick, the beer was ice cold, and the chorizo pizza was, flavorful and cooked perfect. I can't wait to come back and try something new.

    I visited Nonavo Pizza in Vancouver, Washington, on 8/24, and unfortunately, my experience was far from what I expected. While the pizza itself looked fantastic, my encounter with the owner/pizza maker completely soured the experience. As a pizzaiolo myself, I was admiring their beautiful pizza oven which sits front and center of their open kitchen. I decided to take a couple photos with my phone to capture the moment, and out of nowhere, the owner--who apparently thinks he's some kind of East Coast mob boss--started doing this bizarre, over-the-top impersonation, loudly asking me in an obnoxious tone, "Whatcha doing?" I replied, "Taking a picture of this beautiful pizza oven," which for some reason made him even more upset. What followed was a verbal beatdown that went on for several rounds. I found it comical at first, but as he progressed, he got louder and more obnoxious. His loud and abrasive demeanor made the whole situation uncomfortable, not really for me but more for the seated patrons who were enjoying their lunch. To make matters worse, his shouts were peppered with profanity. In an attempt to deescalate the situation, I mentioned that I was a pizzaiolo myself and have my own woodfired brick oven, hoping we could share some camaraderie. This only seemed to piss him off even more, making the situation even more awkward and unnecessary. To top it all off, he actually flipped me off--an incredibly unprofessional move--which I later realized was captured comically on camera. It would have been laughable if it wasn't so absurdly rude. Che cafone! Un vero stronzo! Despite his bad attitude, I didn't let it chase me away. I hobbled to the register and ordered three pies. For context, I was the man with the goatee, glasses, and walking canes with my wife and daughter who we were dropping off as a first year college student. As for the pizza itself, it was mediocre at best. We tried the Margherita, Marinara, and Anchovy pizzas, and all of them were disappointing. The dough was undercooked, and it was clear the oven temperature was too cold. For a place that prides itself on wood-fired pizza, this was a big letdown. The cheese they used wasn't even buffalo mozzarella, which is a basic expectation for italian wood fired pizza. And by the way, that oven sits proud front and center in the pizza shop, practically begging to be admired. If they didn't want the attention, they should have tucked it behind the scenes. After reading other Yelp reviews, I now see that I am not the first person this lunatic has exploded in anger with. It seems this type of behavior is a regular feature here. To the owner: Chill out. Non tutti sono qui per rubare i tuoi segreti della pizza. I was simply admiring the craftsmanship of your oven, not planning a heist. Your attitude is completely out of line. I won't be returning, and I definitely won't be recommending Nonavo Pizza to anyone. There are plenty of great pizza places out there where you can enjoy your meal without being harassed by a lunatic wannabe mobster.

    When I think of a great food experience, I think of Crust Collective. My husband digs the beers,…read morebut I'm in it for the gluten-free deep dish pizza. I love that you can get traditional pizza toppings or creative combinations. The flavor of the pizza is amazing and I have heard that the gluten free crust is considered better than the regular by some people. This location gets busy, so if you can swing an early dinner or a meal at a slightly off time, your wait to sit will be shorter. We came in a bit before 5 when the patio seating was open and got to sit right away. When they are busy, you might wait a bit for food, but the servers are friendly and super knowledgeable about the menu items. We ordered the "something marvelous" (bbq chicken) and a pepperoni pizza (because kids) for our pizza. We also got the beets and burrata salad to start. This was more than enough food and we always take leftovers home. The weather was nice on the patio and you can see the waterfront and river from your seats. We've been here before. We will be back. I hope the Cuban style pizza makes it back on the menu...pizza with pulled pork and pickles? Yes!

    We ate at Ruse Brewing on our way down to Portland for the weekend. This was a beautiful day on the…read morewaterfront and there was no wait at 7PM on a Friday night, which we found surprising given how almost every restaurant on the street seemed to be full. We were told it would be a 20 to 25 minute wait for our pizza (I had to ask - the server didn't volunteer this information). It actually took 30. Dini Broccolini ($16) - We ordered this as an app. The dish includes a thick romesco sauce spread along the bottom of the plate. It's served cold and it's quite nutty (walnuts?) and peppery with a strong tangy umami. It's chunky with lots of small pieces blended in. On top of the romesco are three slices of crostini that are much thicker than average. They are completely dried out and crunchy like croutons. They salt the bread a ton; it's salty enough that my mouth felt like it was burning. The only warm thing on the dish is the broccolini, which is baked rather than charred. The texture is great and the seasoning level is perfect. On top of the veggies, they sprinkle pecorino and and breadcrumbs, for additional saltiness, umami, and a bit of crunch. (4/5) Now onto the pizza. Taken from another of my reviews: there are several characteristics that define Detroit-style. Firstly, the base must be a thinner and chewier focaccia dough-like crust, pillowy on the interior and with a crispness on the bottom and sides that are somewhat greasy but not overladen*. There must be flavorful Wisconsin brick cheese (or blend), buttery and fatty, melted on top and spread until it spills over the sides of the crust, creating a crisp caramelized frico ring surrounding the pie. The pepperoni must be underneath the cheese**, and the flavorful tomato sauce, typically in several wide lines, is spread atop the cheese. There must not be too many toppings to prevent the crust from compressing and ruining the texture. *Note 1: The fat/grease is very important, both to allow the crust to crisp up and to act as a hydrophobic layer to prevent sogginess. **Note 2: This is the one trait I dislike since it makes the pepperoni limp and soaked with grease. Dial 'P' for Pepperoni ($26) - As always, I start with the base pepperoni pizza, the most classical Detroit-style pizza. The pizzas here are standard 4-square size (8in x 10in), cut into 6 pieces. Pricing is pretty expensive for this size - I'm used to 8-square (10in x 14in) pricing being around this much. Starting with the base crust - it's pretty good. It's crisp but not overly greasy, thinner and a little collapsed in the area with toppings, but still light and airy without being dense. It's super bubbly from frying in high heat and the crumb, especially towards the sides, looks great. It has a tasty buttery fried flavor. The cheese frico on the sides is underwhelming. While crisp, it's a little collapsed and flattened rather than having lacy, thin, uneven tops as with a great Detroit-style pizza. The bake on the pizza is also uneven, with one side much darker than the other. The darker side unfortunately burns the frico, which gives an unpleasant acridity on one end. On top, they add an appropriate amount of mild mozzarella. It's enough to give a slightly cheesy stretch, but isn't enough to feel overly heavy or rich. They then place pepperoni on top, which cups and crisps up. Again, they don't overload the pizza, so while salty, it's not overwhelmingly so like several other Detroit-style pizzas I've eaten recently. This all makes a pizza that give a really balanced bite. Unfortunately the sauce here is a miss. It's ridiculously tangy and acidic to start with somewhat of a metallic kind of flavor. It then descends into a really heavy overly concentrated flavor of dried Italian herbs. It's incredibly overwhelming, like they wanted to completely cover up the taste of bad quality canned tomatoes* but failed. The dried herbs are followed up with a slight heat that warms the mouth, probably from red pepper flakes mixed in. On each slice of pizza, they place a giant spoonful of sauce, which is unfortunate given that I didn't enjoy the sauce. I think they should revisit their tomato sauce recipe. It's one of the worst Ive had in a while. Luckily, it's not a huge part of the pizza. (3.5/5) Overall the pizzas have some major weaknesses. My review reads very critical, but I think the pizzas are still quite tasty and will satisfy most people. Still, I personally wouldn't return given the better options for Detroit-style pizza across the river. *Note: They use Valoroso canned tomatoes from Stanislaus, which is a company many places in Detroit also use. I doubt the quality of the tomatoes are actually bad. Bathrooms - Two unisex rooms

We both agreed this is the last time we'll come here. We came in and were greeted and immediately seated by the host. He was friendly and welcoming. They weren't super busy, but busy enough for a Saturday lunch crowd. It took him awhile to get our drink order, so when he finally came to take it, we went ahead and ordered our food as well. We decided on the bacon cheeseburger with chips, and the reuben with fries ($3.50 extra for fries). I've never understood the extra cost for fries vs homemade potato chips?! The chips have been hit or miss in the past, so we usually order fries for one entree just in case. Our food took about 45 minutes. Seemed way too long. Our server never came back and asked for refills on beverages during our visit either, which was disappointing. My burger looked good, but super greasy, even the bun was greasy on top. Maybe it was brushed with butter?! The burger dripped with grease while eating it. The chips were saturated in grease as well. Some of them so much they weren't crispy at all. Our server was nowhere to be found or I would have complained. They were left on the plate. My husband didn't like them either. He ended up sharing his fries with me. My husband liked his reuben, but the bread was burnt on the bottom. You couldn't tell at first look, only once it was picked up to eat. It had plenty of meat, cheese, peppers and onions. He enjoyed it overall. The fries were good too. Much better than the chips. The restaurant was clean when we walked in, but during our visit many tables were left dirty for far too long. Not sure if they were in the middle of a shift change, but it seemed like no one was around to clear plates or refill beverages. Someone from the kitchen eventually came out to get us our bill. Our plates were still on the table when we left. Overall a disappointing experience. There are far too many restaurant options in this area to spend $65 on lunch for mediocre, at best, food and service. We will not be returning.
