We hosted our son's 8th birthday party at Smoking Monkey. Tom was so responsive and helpful with…read morethe planning process. I went into the event very comfortable that everything would be taken care of, and it was. The party went off without a hitch. Food was prompt, hot and tasty. Service was great. They went above and beyond to make my son's day special with music and little party favors. We didn't request the extras and there was no charge. We were really touched and felt cared for. With twenty 8-year-olds, we kept it simple with pies and 2L's. That worked well for us. But they also had a number of other tasty looking offerings to add on. There was no tip option with card payment or default gratuity added to the check. We came back with cash after we finished at 8bit Arcade down the street. So, save yourself a trip and bring cash. The room is not huge but large enough for our party of 30 to lunch. The bathrooms are accessed through a work area. If you choose this venue for a similar event, just know it's a restaurant, not a kids' venue. You will need to manage the kids, so they don't become disruptive.

I am sad to be writing this review but here goes it…read more Service - 2 stars Our server was new so I have to give her some grace and give her an extra star for effort. She was the only one on the floor and she couldn't answer any of our questions because it was her third day. Every question we asked, she walked to the back for an answer... one at a time. After having to go back there a few times, you'd think that the guy would just come out and talk to us. Food - 1 star Pizza: Nothing special but it was ok. Pasta: Alfredo sauce tastes like it's straight out of the jar. Chicken wings: We ordered two types of wings, both small size (6-8 wings). They brought out one large order (12 wings) in a completely different flavor than the two we ordered. When we asked about taking it off the bill, they tried to tell me that the two wing orders came on one plate. I told them I wasn't expecting anything free but I would like my bill to reflect what we were served. Even if what he said was true, one order of large wings is cheaper than two orders of smalls. Price - 0 stars The prices on their menus reflect the pictures in the yelp reviews - which are all wrong. I get inflation is real and things are expensive these days, but please update your menus. Pasta was supposed to be $11, we got charged $16.99. A fountain sprite and some syrup (Shirley temple) was $11!! This place is completely out of line, in my opinion, and I would not recommend it to anyone. Even if the food was good, which I can't say that it was, the way customers are manipulated is just not right.

We have ordered from Angelo's Pizza several times. Each time is for takeout…read more The other week we ordered their large pizza that supposedly has many types of meat on it. I don't know if this was a "one off" but our large pizza hardly had any meat in it. I'm not exaggerating. This was a BIG disappointment! I have ordered large pizzas from places like Dominos and Papa John's which were their "meat lovers" pizzas and those had much more than Angelo's. Someone told me that Pizza Hut had moved into the business center next to Angelo's. I guess we will try there next. Don't get me wrong. The flavor of Angelo's pizza was very good, but very scarce on the meat.

The flavors are crazy good... cheesy, creamy, a little sweet, a little spicy, and super addicting. What really makes their pizza hit is the way they cook it over the wood fire. It gives the crust that perfect crisp with a little char, and the toppings taste so fresh. You can tell they actually care about their ingredients. We've tried the carne asada pizza and it was okay, but the corn pizza one I would def go back for that!! If you're in Des Moines and craving something different from your usual pizza spot, you HAVE to try Pizza Locas. Get the Elote Pizza you can thank me later!

I came across Stevie's Famous via social media and the people weren't lying that they have the BEST…read moresourdough crust pizza in town (maybe in all of WA). I literally made my boyfriend take me here twice in one week because of how mind-blowing good their pizza is! Stevie's sells whole 12" pizzas (made for 2-3 people) and pizza by the slice. They unfortunately don't do half and half pizzas, so you and you companion(s) have to be on the same page if your ordering a whole pizza. On my first visit, I ordered a slice of their classic PEPPERONI ($5.50) and made it a Normie (+$2). I'm not sure who Normie is, but Normie is an absolute genius for adding burrata and hot honey to pizza - a literal kiss from heaven. The burrata and hot honey combo adds lots of complex flavors to your slice - so you get the savory, the sweet, and the spicy in every bite - and complex textures with the crispy chewy crust and the soft and creamy burrata. The pepperoni was fantastic and the sourdough crust was fresh and out of this world! On my second visit, I got a slice of their MUSHROOM GORGONZOLA ($6) and you already know I had to make it a Normie (+$2). The mushrooms were nice and earthy and while this pizza didn't have tomato sauce, it had a nice olive oil base and was super delicious. They rotate their pizza slices daily, but always have your standard cheese and pepperoni. If you're getting a slice, they warm up the slice for you right after you order so the cheese gets super gooey and the crust gets super crunchy. I haven't gotten a whole pizza from them yet, but the make it fresh on the spot. Make sure to grab extra napkins cause the slices do get oily and therefore messy. Service is great and the people working there are super friendly. It takes them only about 5 minutes to warm up a slice of pizza and they always welcome you in and thank you for coming on your way out. In terms of atmosphere, they have limited indoor seating and a couple of outdoor tables. They have merch featuring their dog logo and a couple of arcade machines too. Parking is limited to street-parking only, but I didn't have any issues finding a spot a couple of blocks down. Overall: 5/5 for pizza, 5/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere.

I absolutely love these guys! I cannot praise them enough. At risk of overloading them, I will tell…read moreevery one as much as I can how outstanding they are. For a year I worked in Renton on the other side of the train tracks. There were some things that I really enjoyed about Renton, but one of my favorite things was hitting a slice at Pizza Dudes. I like a New York style, and they nail it as far as I'm concerned. I would even say they set a different standard. PNW/New York. They also serve some good salads, and their spaghetti with meat sauce at $20 and 10lb is to be reckoned with. I lost count of the times that I had lived off that for an entire week. Now - here's what really did me in... one day I walked in for a pepperoni slice, and in their warm case they had Deep Dish Chicken Alfredo slices. Now, I'm sure you've been around the block. Maybe up-and-down the tracks. Lived a full and perhaps wonderful life. I can tell you with 100% assurance that if you have not had this, your life has an empty seat at the table. You will always have a little void in your soul, and wonder what's supposed to go there. Deep Dish Alfredo in Renton. Juuuust sayin'. Love you Pizza Dudes
