I am going to let you in on a little secret. I've been coming here for years, and this place is consistently fantastic! This review is broken up into 2 parts. Pizza (Oven) and Cocktails (Shaker). The Oven part of the restaurant name. When it comes to food, I love pizza and that is what I am going to highlight here. They have a nice selection of standard pizza and 18 different additional toppings that you can add so it is super easy to get a pizza just the way you like it OR create something never before seen. It up to you! Don't forget to ask about the daily pizza pie they are currently offering. I am gluten free. I am not celiac. I actively avoid gluten. Their GF crust is a great option. I remember the first time I got it I asked the server if this was the GF crust and they said it was. I was like amazing! Note to self: Yelp does not support emoji in reviews. The Shaker part of the restaurant name For me, the craft cocktails here are spectacular! There is a half page menu with 9 well thought out drinks. It changes regularly. Is it seasonally? I don't know. There are tasting notes and even the actual recipe for the drink! I've never seen that before. If something doesn't suit your fancy, ask for something off menu. I've done it several times and always been pleased. read more

Came to this restaurant during our last trip to Portland and we had a great time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Rustic mix with modern decor. Inside was bright and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We Went right before dinner rush, the restaurant was fairly empty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were greeted and seated right away. Sat by the window. Nice street view to people watch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was very friendly and attentive. We ordered 2 pizzas, appetizers, cocktails, tea and dessert. Everything was good. Food came out fast and Pizza tasted yummy. However, both my husband and I had discomfort in stomach that night after returned back to hotel. Given that was the only place we ate that afternoon, cannot help, we can only assume there were something wrong with the food we ate here... but not 100% certain. Luckily we did not get too sick, so we just brushed it off. We walked to the restaurant, so did not pay much attention to the parking situation, but looks like there were street parkings only. Prices were not bad, and loved how creative some of the cocktails they have. Do recommend. read more

They were busy, so make a reservation. We were there for dinner before going to Portland Center Stage for a play. The food was excellent, drinks are creative and tasty, and if you mention you are heading to a play, you get a small small discount off of your bill. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Oven and shaker is a solid choice for a nice dinner when you don't feel like fully dressing up but you still want a good going out spot. It is upscale casual.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartenders are very friendly and knowledgeable about the cocktails and alcohol that they serve. The food and drinks come out fast, hot, and delicious.

I would eat here again! read more

It's been a while since I visited Oven and Shaker but the great service, good food and PDX vibes are still present. It was a Saturday night and the waitlist delayed us only 20 minutes. Our hostess was attentive and helped navigate the menu favorites. The pizza did not disappoint and the Kale salad was simple yet satisfying. read more

Great dinner spot for happy hour or for full dinner; easy to customize pizzas to Vegan or vegetarian, and they offer gluten free crust (not celiac friendly, use your judgement). Service is wonderful and full of recommendations - ask for the secret cocktail menu! I love their wine menu so you must try an Oregon Pinot with your pizza! Fantastic salads as well - great for sharing read more

Ordered a pizza for takeout from here and thought the quality of the ingredients, speed of service, and overall taste of the pizza were great. If I lived here, I would make it a regular spot! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice spot with pizza and drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They're open at lunch also which is great for kids since it tends to be a bit quieter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have indoor and outdoor seating and good pizza options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not my absolute favorite but ok and they have some interesting flavor combos which is always fun to try! It definitely hit the spot and their beer selection was good too! read more

Oven and Shaker's service and quality is going downhill. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I used to love their pizza and ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pizza was charred and we brought it to server's attention who agreed. They replaced it with another pizza and it was charred as well. Then the server got us someone else's check at the end. The only good thing about tonight was their roasted beet salad. In a city known for pizzas, there is fierce competition and it's important to maintain quality of food. We are definitely not coming back. read more

I had the radicchio Caesar salad and the spicy pepperoni pizza with hot honey. The pizza was really good with a great balance of spicy, sweet, and savory. The salad was fresh, crisp, and went perfectly with the richness of the pizza. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The cool atmosphere and super friendly waitstaff made the experience even better.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good food, great service, and definitely worth checking out. read more

Superb customer service! Everyone was so kind and helpful! Got the goat cheese pizza and the margarita with goat cheese. It was delicious. The brightness of the subtle lemon spark with the pistachio pesto brought out the sharpness of the goat cheese. read more

We found paid parking right next to the establishment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated quickly at one of the outdoor picnic tables, which were very difficult to get in and out of.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A carafe of water was brought quickly and refilled promptly. We weren't terribly hungry, so only ordered a white pizza which was beautiful and delicious. The staff were not well coordinated at shift turnover, because literally 15 seconds after the first server brought out our pizza, the second server came and asked us how it was, when it was completely obvious that we hadn't even taken a first bite yet. read more

Having moved nearby to Oven and Shaker in recent years, I have been impressed with their quality and service since COVID. Oven and Shaker has become a pizza parlor I can constantly rely upon and recommend to friends, and I really love the staff. Whether you're taking out or dining in, there is bound to be something for you. They do a good job at rotating speciality pizzas every month, and their normal offerings are always a hit. Recently, friends and I ordered takeaway after a day in the park, and we decided upon the spicy pepperoni. We were all impressed, and two of us even noted that it was the best pizza we have had in Portland. The pepperoni was perfect, and the cheese to sauce to dough ratio was honestly amazing. The herbs and special ingredients they added to the recipe made it one to remember. I am still thinking about it three days later. read more

Great pizza and salads; wine, cocktails, beer and whisky; convivial ambience; and friendly, menu-knowing servers - what you're looking for on a night out! We've tried all the pizzas on the menu, some more than others. But you can always build your own your way. I recommend considering the special thin crust, wood-fired pizza cuz it'll be a delish doozy. Last night special pizza - chili, butternut squash, purée, garlic, mozzarella, ricotta, pork belly, basil, crispy leeks harissa balsamic glaze, grana padano. Can you taste these ingredients on a perfect thin crust? I was not sure I'd like butternut squash. I do not even like squash. But loved it on a pizza the chef cooked up. Squash puree blends with the balance of all ingredients topped off by the yum yum yum balsamic glaze. Mazing! read more

Just a fantastic place to visit! Oven and Shaker is located in the Pearl. A girlfriend and I visited on one of the last beautiful days of fall. They have ample indoor and outdoor seating and you can smell the cozy wood oven when you enter. Service was great (a bit slow, but excellent engagement!). We ordered unique cocktails that were well-balanced (not too sweet, not too boozy, but boozy enough). I got the Pepper Smash and Angie got the Smile and Nod. We shared the must-have Nostrana salad (I'm salivating thinking about) and the goat cheese pizza. Both were excellent! I need to come back and try other items on the menu. This is a place where it's hard to narrow down what to eat. read more

Came here because we wanted pizza! All the other well known spots in time are closed until 5 but this place is open for lunch so of course we're gonna come here! Had their spicy salami, maple pig, and Margherita pizzas! There were three of us and each pizza came with 6 slices so we actually split 3 way with 2 slices each! Margherita: 8/10 Spicy salami: 9/10 Maple pig: 9/10 - Service was super friendly and nice! - Area is spacious and lots of seating! - Great for all occasions - Will need to street park Would definitely recommend! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute pizza spot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was extremely helpful with recommendations for my first experience. We ordered the goat cheese pizza with mushrooms and the radicchio salad. The salad was a spin on a Caesar salad. It was very good! Not bitter at all. The pizza had good flavor but the crust left more to be desired. It was a bit chewy and too soft. read more

Found this place during wing week with a funny tik tok advertising their lemon picatta wings! My mom use to make us lemon picatta pasta growing up so it was an instant yes, wings were super good, only caveat is I wish they would've tossed them in the sauce vs sitting them dry on top of it cause I was tryna drag those guys through the sauce and spoon it up and it was a lil rough but super yummy! Also tried the meatballs and the La Fettunta bread, super tasty, that Parmesan layer is THICK lemme tell ya (I ended up brushing a little off it was a lot). The meatballs were a little cool for my taste, I wish they came out a bit hotter, one of them was a little tough, again still super yummy, but my only negative. Pro tip, if you layer a slice of meatball on the bread, spoon a lil extra marinara on top, EVEN TASTIER. Definitely will be back sometime to try their wine selection and pizzas. All in all a good experience. Just a couple notes. read more

Oven and Shaker is our go-to before a show at The Armory. Reliably excellent pizza, can't do without the Nostrana salad, and the drinks are creative and well-crafted. For wine, the house red and house white are a bargain for the quality. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We love the space, and service is excellent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chef came around to tables to make sure everything was to customers' liking - a nice touch! read more

Not only is their food great, the service has been prompt and friendly every time we've been here, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]NO TV!! This would be a good date night place, or really for anyone anyone wanting a calmer, quieter place to eat on game nights.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, they do have a DJ/slightly louder music at the front some nights, so be sure to check for that if you are/aren't in the mood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Oven and Shaker is a trendy, upscale establishment serving very authentic Neapolitan style pizza, along with a variety of drinks. We were part of a large party, and the service was very good throughout. The thing about Neapolitan pizza, which I'm not a fan of, is that the crust never really gets crispy -- it's always floppy and pliable, sometimes bordering on doughy. With that in mind, my review is based on other pizzas I've had in the PDX area, many of which have been produced with a lighter, crispier, crust. (I like my pizzas the same way a certain famous east coast pizza reviewer likes them) I tried two different pizzas -- the Margherita, and Pepperoni & Mushroom. I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but the pepperoni had a good spice to it, and the crust seemed to hold together a little better on this one than the Marg (although the center was very sloppy). I'd give this one 4.5 stars. It was the Margherita that I was most looking forward to, but I found it to be a bit of a let down. I would say the center of the crust was more done than the other, but still with a ton of floppiness, which caused the very runny tomato sauce to drip right off of each slice. It was okay, but definitely did not dazzle the taste buds like Margs I've had at other locations recently. 3.5 stars for this one. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would definitely come back, because it does have a cool vibe to it, but they just don't serve my favorite pizza style.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came here tonight before theater at the Armory. Ordered a cocktail which was good and came pretty promptly. We ate outside and were assured that we would not be neglected because we were outside. Ordered their version of a Caesar salad. Delicious! Let the waiting begin! We were there for well over 45 minutes waiting for our pizza. A group that came in 15 - 20 minutes got two pizzas delivered while we were waiting. I asked the food runner to check on our pie and she eye rolled. We were on a timer, because of the start time of our play. Eventually our mediocre pizza arrived. The manager came over because we were clearly annoyed. She repeated over again 'what would it take to make this right?' We said nothing? It's fine. A discount is not an apology, which we did not receive. BTW - the pizza was not that good. Not bothering to go back. Too bad because it is close to the Armory read more

We stopped by during Happy Hour and it did not disappoint. The crispy chickpeas were well seasoned and crunchy, and the arugula salad (which was regular sized) was fresh and well made. The lemon vinaigrette gave it a summer taste as well. The Margherita pizza wasn't as good as it was when I use to pick up To-Go during the pandemic funny enough, but it was still was decent and looked great, especially as a happy hour price. Service was slow as it seemed understaffed but they were very kind. The place was very clean and gave a nice "date night" vibe, even though we were there on a Monday afternoon. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The environment was very queer friendly![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The two pizzas we had were very delicious! Yummy and fresh ingredients. One pizza was the spicy salami and other was The Pearl. Ask for a small side of honey to drizzle on the Pearl pizza for an elevated experience. The service was great! Very attentive staff. All the staff were serving lewks! Had the Honey basil Collins cocktail and it was great!! Not too sweet or too strong, it was just right. Olive lovers: the olive appetizer is a must!

I've loved Oven and Shaker for years--it's been my go-to spot for birthdays, milestones, and introducing out-of-town guests to Portland dining. But my recent visit was deeply disappointing. We waited over an hour for our pizzas, and the drink experience was off from the start. A dirty martini came out crystal clear with a lemon peel (??), and my partner ordered a Lefou scotch, only to get a mystery pour 20 minutes later--which turned out to be a $35 shot with no heads-up or confirmation. When I brought it up to the manager, I was met with a dismissive "we didn't have what you asked for." No effort to offer an alternative or clarify pricing. It was awkward, uncomfortable, and not at all the level of service I've come to expect. I've always ended my meals here with a budino and coffee, but honestly, I'm not sure I'll be back. read more

Excellent service - Amanda M. Very attentive. Very clean. Music nice and and at an acceptable volume to carry on a conversation. Food was very good in our choice of margarita pizza. Great dough. Mozzarella and basil was very fresh. I strongly recommend stopping in and enjoying a pizza. They had lots of item that sounded delicious on their menu. read more

The server we had the day of our visit (myself and a girlfriend and her new baby) was uncomfortably rude and passive aggressive. I would never go back purely due to the wildly inappropriate comments made when we were simply trying to enjoy our meal while catering to a growing baby and a little one's behavior (really we just didn't know how long we had to dine-in and were respectfully communicative of that). In the end, the server made multiple jabs to make us feel unwelcomed and uncomfortable despite our efforts to empathize on staff shifts, bad days, etc. The manager tried to offer us a comped meal next time but the experience was so uncomfortable and out of line that I would never go back nor recommend this restaurant. I am a local pizza joint critic and can say there are much better pizzerias in Portland for a better price point and positive dining-in experiences. I've listed those below and you will not be disappointed! 1. Ken's Artisan Pizza 2. Pizza Thief 3. Mama Mia (the Caesar salad is PERFECTION) 4. Blind Onion (more traditional american pizza - the ranch is bomb) 5. American Dream (def get the ranch on the side) read more

Came here for a nice special birthday dinner and was quickly seated. We found a couple of spots right up at the bar and the bar tender was so attentive and friendly. We ordered a couple of pizzas and a couple of beers. I like how Oven and Shaker offers 8oz pour for beer because sometimes that's all I need to accompany my pizza. I had the white cheese pizza which was delicious and had really good cheesy flavor. My husband had the house special which was inspired by French onion soup--very oniony. The ambiance is perfection, the lighting, the space, the coziness of it all works. We really enjoyed ourselves and had enough pizza for left overs and I must say the leftovers taste almost just as good the next day! read more

AMAZING! My first time trying Burrata and it was so delicious, hot crisp bread, perfectly pickled onion and arugula, so good with some sea salt and red pepper flakes! I will recommend this to everyone I know. We intended to order the special Peachy Pig Pizza but they were out of ingredients, we settled with The Pearl and added prosciutto and arugula. The price was high, $29, but worth it! Nice and garlicky with low salted prosciutto, maybe a little too much arugula but it tied together well. Definitely recommend and you have to try the Burrata! -1 the Honey Basil Collin's had WAY too much basil and barely any liquid in the drink, but the burrata saved the day. read more

Went to Portland on vacation and was told this place was great so decided to stop. It has great indoor and outdoor seating options. It was 76 so we sat outside. For appetizers we had the mozzarella sticks. It's real slices of mozzarella cut from the block deep fried. Tasty start. We had the spicy salami. It was pretty damn good. The crust was nice and soft but crispy (Neapolitan). Had their dessert but would pass on that if returning. All in all yes this place was good and had solid pizza. Was it the best pizza I ever had? No but I'd still def go if hungry. Service was fast. We walked so can't comment on the parking. read more
