    You order and pick where you want to sit. Pretty spacious inside with plenty parking outside. Now to the food.... the pizza was burnt on the bottom, I can make better spaghetti meatballs (I don't even cook like that btw) lol and the macaroni cheese was the only okay dish. The texture was good for macaroni and cheese but I def expected better tasting pizza.

    11/11/25 Tuesday Stopped by for lunch and arrived a little early so they weren't open yet. They open at 11 AM. We were the only ones there for the first hour. When we attempted to order, they ran out of chicken meatballs and apparently could not make chicken wings either because they were still cleaning the deep fryer. Disappointing since that involved most of the items we wanted to order. We settled on ordering a margarita pizza, bbq chicken pizza, and steak salad. They're known for their sourdough pie dough. Didn't know what to expect, but the pizzas tasted healthy, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but the flavor was lacking. Dough didn't taste sour despite being sourdough. Thin chewy crust. Fresh basil. Bbq pizza is too sweet. The pizzas were not hot... The steak salad was the saving grace. It was bomb. Tender steak and flavorful salad dressing and toppings! Very spacious venue suitable for large parties. There's even outdoor seating with cover. There is a parking lot. I can imagine it could fill up during busy times, but it was empty when we were there.

    This was my first time here. I came with a group of about 10 people or so. After walking in through their large sliding doors, I was surprised by how big the place really is. The dining area is pretty spacious and the tables were perfect for the size of my party. They even have an outdoor patio area decked out with a fireplace and everything. The workers were very friendly and explained everything to us. Including their new seasonal menu items. When our food came, the pizza was hot, the crust was thin and flaky. All the ingredients are fresh and tasted amazing. We came in on a Saturday afternoon and the place wasn't crowded. We did have kids in our party, but this place does serve alcohol and has TV's set up throughout. I'm thinking this would be a good place to watch any major sporting event. So, that means I'll have to add this place to my list of places to go and keep this place in mind when I want to watch the big game.

    Dined in for lunch on 11/11/25 at 11:00 am. We were the first ones there. We tried ordering chicken wings, but the fryer wasn't ready. Then we tried to ask for chicken meatballs, but they didn't have it. We were disappointed we wanted to try their appetizers, but maybe we were just too early. Service: quick, you just order up in the front and they bring the food to you Parking: small parking lot, so you will have to park on the street Food: - Steak salad: 4/5, good flavor, but a tad too sweet for me. The steak was tender and the salad was fresh. I would ask for dressing on the side next time. - Margherita Pizza and BBQ chicken pizza: 2.5/5, sadly the pizzas barely had any flavor. They both tastes almost too healthy. The crust was chewy with no seasoning or flavor. The toppings didn't stand out at all. Sadly, I am disappointed that the pizza was not good compared to the salad. The only good thing was the crust was apparently a sourdough crust, so it is healthier? Overall, we wouldn't be returning back.

    Mushroom pizza had so few mushrooms. Added prosciutto and still looked bare.

    Extremely disappointed on how few toppings were on the mushroom pizza. After adding prosciutto to the mushroom pizza, it still looked bare. BBQ chicken pizza had more toppings but had a piece of bone the size of a pinky nail. Someone can chip a tooth from the bone. Both pizza tasted delicious altho they had wide crusts. The restaurant charged $1.20 fee for employee health and added sales tax on top of this fee. This is our 1st time trying Pitfire pizza and we won't return.

    I was blown away by their exquisite pizzas and the taste was out of this world! Even the crust was fluffy and rich. 10/10 will definitely come back again.

    No hostess - they asked that you "grab a menu and take a seat, then place order at counter." If you want refill on your drink, you have to take glass to the counter. When food is delivered, that is the time you asked for what you need (extra napkins, salt, pepper, etc) or else you're on your own. Customer service was just okay, when we did interact with the waitress, no personality or smile. The honey bear pizza was good, but not enough sauce and the chili on it was very spicy, too spicy! The salad and the pasta were good. Sadly, did not feel like we went out and dinner was served to us, minimal interaction with staff, and it was not pleasant. Doubt we will be back!!!

    Omg it tastes so good the pizza here is good I like the inside but when you need to go to the restroom they'd a code so ask them before going in and also they give the kids wikki stik to enjoy so they dont get bored and the service is good too and the ambience so relaxing and comfortable I recommend come to this place often.

We sat at the bar, which provided a fantastic view of the chefs crafting fresh pasta right from the pan--it's a tight, efficient operation that I'd recommend for anyone looking to watch the craft. Note: The wait on a Thursday at 7 PM was only 5-10 minutes (we pivoted here after seeing an hour-long wait at Sugarfish next door). Food & Service The service is minimal but efficient. A service charge is automatically included, and they are transparent about it upfront. * Truffle Tagliata: Absolutely delicious. I've never been a huge fan of al dente pasta, but this dish finally made me a convert--the texture was perfection. The sauce leaned a bit salty, but it remained enjoyable. * Tiramisu: A fantastic finish to the meal. Value The tasting menu was approximately $105 after tax and fees. I felt the price was fair and the quality justified the cost. Verdict An excellent experience if you appreciate watching the kitchen in action. I'd recommend booking ahead if you have a larger group, but for a party of two, it's great!

Looked like little treasure pockets swimming in a cream sauce. Was perfectly al dente but after awhile, the flavors became very heavy and not as enjoyable. Pomodorini e basílico - very simple pasta with yellow tomatoes, basil, sea salt and some oil. Yea this pasta was pretty flavorless and seemed like I was eating bland pasta. Broccolini was probably the best of the night. Pasta is made in Italy and shipped overnight. I don't know but I was really overwhelmed and still hungry after eating. Glad I got to try it but I would not come back.

However, I'm sure this restaurant will do fine, as it has been a part of Pasadena for so long. We had a reservation for 7:30pm, and we were seated in the back of the restaurant. I didn't even know they had a back room, as last time we sat in the front. All of the dishes tonight were shared, except for the drink. I had the White Lotus drink, which was very similar to an Aperol Spritz. We shared the Pork Meatballs. These were 5 out of 5. They were so tasty, dense, large and the sauce and spice were perfect. We then shared the Mushroom Gnocchi. This is exactly how it sounds; however, I felt it was definitely lacking flavor, and would give it a 4 out of 5. We then moved on to the main course, which was the Pork Chop with an Apricot Sauce and a herb salad with fruit. I would give this dish a 5 out of 5, excellent. We ended the meal with the Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble. This was kind of the disappointment of the meal. It wasn't bad; however, it was not a crumble; we didn't taste any strawberry or rhubarb. The ice cream on the top was the highlight of this dish. It would get a 2 out of 5. Our server was very nice; however, a little rushed at times, especially during the early part of our service when the restaurant was nearly to capacity. Overall, a good to great visit. I would still return again in the future.

I ordered the Settebello $21 pizza as a main entree of which I thought was advertised with pancetta, mushrooms and Italian sausage. Pizza came out hot and fresh, but with prosciutto instead of the perceived menu listed pancetta. Pizza sauce was good, the sausage and mushrooms were great. Crust was a little doughy, not crispy but charcoal charred in places. Not phenomenal but not bad, middle of the road overall. Service started off great but fell flat to the floor. Drinks and food came out on time indicating bar staff and kitchen staff were on point. Waiting staff could up their game. No check up or check in. No offers for drink refills or another round. I had to ask for refills on water. Final bill $56.35 for one drink, appetizer and pizza for a solo dinner. Three (3) stars at best! Room for improvements.

When it was time to pick up the order, the restaurant could not spare anyone to help bring the food to our car, despite it being a large catering order and the pickup taking place on a very busy avenue. What was most disappointing was the lack of concern or willingness to offer any assistance. The food arrived late for our event as a result. While the food was good, the poor service has made me reconsider ordering catering from them again, returning as often, and recommending them to others. It's a shame because I genuinely enjoy the food, but there are other options available. Hopefully, the service issues I experienced with catering do not eventually carry over into the restaurant experience.
