This pizza spot absolutely delivered! We ordered half clam chowder pizza and half meat lovers, and both sides were packed with flavor. The crust had that perfect wood-fired char -- crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside, with just the right amount of crunch around the edges. The clam chowder side was such a Rhode Island/New England experience. Creamy, savory, loaded with seafood flavor, and topped with fresh herbs and potatoes that gave true chowder vibes in pizza form. Honestly, you can't come to Providence and not try chowder in every form possible! The meat lovers side was bold, hearty, and stacked with toppings. Pepperoni curled perfectly at the edges, sausage was flavorful, and every bite had the perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and smoky meat flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was relaxed, modern, and perfect for casual dining with friends or family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great food, great vibe, and definitely a spot worth revisiting while in Providence. read more

On Mondays, you can get a huge Margarita Pizza for 50% off (about $10). That is a great deal that we could not pass. So we got some greens, some chicken wings and a pizza and it was filling and yummy. Our server was really friendly and chatty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Around 3-4pm there was almost no one in the restaurant, which made it relaxing and peaceful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place can get very loud and busy during peak times.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great pizza, excellent wings, great service. read more

I recently placed an order for pickup from Providence Coal Fired Pizza for an event. The day prior, I called and placed my order. The staff member who took my order was friendly and repeated my order to confirm accuracy. I ordered the Mixed Greens Salad ($10), Baby Bella PZ ($23), Rocket PZ ($23), and Pepperoni PZ ($22). On the day of the event, I went to Providence Coal Fired Pizza at 12:15pm to pickup my order. There were people already sitting at the bar and a table was occupied though they just opened 15 minutes ago. My pizzas were ready and at a shelf by the cashier. I asked about my salad and the staff member went to grab it. All my friends enjoyed the salad and pizza. The Baby Bella PZ had cremini and oyster mushrooms, ricotta, mozzarella, and finished with truffle oil. If you love mushrooms as much as I do, you will definitely enjoy this pizza. The Rocket PZ is a margherita pizza topped with arugula and pecorino. This was also very very good. I enjoyed the freshness of arugula. I didn't have a chance to try the Pepperoni PZ, but that was the first pizza to be finished. I usually don't eat the crust of pizza because it's too hard, but no one had anything left of their plate. It was all consumed. read more

Stopped in for a bite after a Sundays matinee at PPAC. Two adults two teen girls. All were very happy! We got caprese and brussel sprouts for apps and they were super tasty!

Ok burnt really bland soggy pizza; after asking about it, they replaced it after seeing the bottom was blackened as well; Parm dip also really bland and not really dip-able, but loved the fresh (bland) flatbread! Best thing was the pickles! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really stuffy, humid, hot restaurant on a breezy day. Would have loved to have sat outside instead.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Really helpful server! read more

The pizza here is pure amazingness! I will say parking is a pain in the ass but the pizza is worth it I promise!

The pizza here is always amazing. The crust has great flavor , nice and crispy texture. I love sauce because it's savory and not sweet like many pizza sauces . They also don't over sauce pizzas . I love the cup pepperoni, the ends get super crunchy and they are spicy. Service is always very friendly, but it is a little slow because they are so crowded. There is a long wait for food at times . It took over an hour to get two pizzas. But their pizzas are worth the wait. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While this place is usually crowded, its acoustics are good , so you can sit and have a nice conversation with people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My toughest challenge as a native Rhode Islander is finding a great pizza spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]PVD Coal Fire has a rustic and upscale charm to it, making them a going-out spot rather than a "order out and eat the whole box on the couch in sweats" type restaurant to me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I mean that in a good way because everyone needs a go-to spot for date nights. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This downtown Providence location is perfect before a PPAC show and for fueling your cheesy cravings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE coal-fired pizza - definitely take your preferences into account if you're not a charred crust fan. We've tried a good amount of their specialty pizzas, like the Taco, Meat Lovers, BBQ Chicken, the Conrad and Four Cheese. I would rather eat those five pizzas in one sitting than answer which one was my favorite. If I HAD to choose... ... It would be the Taco pizza! I strongly gravitate towards fun and out-of-the-box options, making this specialty a winner in my books. If a beef chili base, Monterey Jack cheese, cumin sour cream, Frito's and scallion combo doesn't scare you, it might become your favorite too. As far as appetizers go, the bruschetta pomodoro was awesome and the house pesto packed tons of flavor. The coal-fired wings were okay. Unfortunately, the charred chicken tasted too dry to me. However, I did like the roasted onions sprinkled on top. Overall, I recommend bookmarking PVD Coal Fire for your next meal. read more

Stopped by for dinner on a casual Thursday. Was surprised to know we could order 2 kinds of pizzas in one, loved that. Loved the thin crust.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Happy to have walked into this little gem of a pizza place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu had a lot of great options to choose from. Staff was friendly and service was good (but we were sad our waitress forgot to tell us about the Thanksgiving dinner seasonal pizza!). Food reviews: -picked vegetables: too spicy! Maybe that's what Chicago style means? -beet & goat cheese salad: excellent!! -clam pizza: also excellent! Crust wasn't too thin and it wasn't too clammy. Wish we would have known you could do half and half because we would have loved to try another (maybe add that to the menu for future?) Also had two tasty drinks that I forget the names of. Would recommend for a good pizza stop in downtown Providence! read more

Omg the wings are so delicious ! Bruschetta Pomodoro Is so good little spicy but that's why it's so good! Pizza is good too.

Ok so I am a Neapolitan pizza guy, NYC style. But this wasn't bad at all. Nice flavor and very tasty crust. Staff was very friendly., sat at the bar and enjoyed a great convo with the bar tender who originally hailed from NY. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmospheric was inviting, place was very bright! No issue reading the menu for this guy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good solid meal. Had half clams and half meatlovers. Maybe a little too much potato on the clam side but overall a nice pizza. Be advised you Neo peeps. It's not cut in triangles like we are used to. Ha ha ha Two thumbs up here!!! read more

$20? Come on, man. That's crap. Was the pizza good? It was passable. I had to add salt because the sauce lacks flavor. Was the server good? Yes. My server was attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance?

The wings are great here! Always served piping hot. I brought some pizza "experts" here tonight and they loved the pies. We shared the Conrad, Meatball, 4 Cheese and Margherita pizzas.

You have to eat here! First of all, the service is first-rate. We were greeted and seated right away. Our server really knew both the drink and food menus, paced the drink, appetizers, and entrees perfectly, and really spoiled us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining space is clean and modern, with cool respect paid to the downtown beaux arts building location, and a clear view into the coal-fired pizza oven.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But the food puts this place over the top! The garden salad was fresh, with just the right amount of dressing. The pizzas were the best we've had. Hubby had the pepperoni and I had the Rocket. The pepperoni was curled up and spicy, with just the right amount of cheese, and a sauce that your Nonna would make. The arugula on the rocket was so fresh and peppery, I didn't need red peppers, with same delicious sauce. Thank you for a wonderful evening! read more

Omg.. best clam pizza of my life. A perfect blend of flavors and who doesn't love potatoes on pizza! Honorable mention to the meatball pizza which was also very tasty.

The bartender/server was friendly and got us our drinks right away. But the downside of how busy it was, we waited an hour to finally get our pizza. We were on a time crunch as we had other plans as well. As soon as the pizza came, we asked for the check at the same time - we ate it quickly since we were super hungry and paid so we can leave as soon as we could. I would go again, but trying to avoid the busy days. read more

Never in my life would I have thought I needed to ask if there was sauce on a pizza. That's what I get for assuming. I got a pizza with no sauce. Otherwise known as the Conrad. The description sounded delightful, "onions, sausage, roasted peppers, rosemary, mozzarella and pecorino." Other pizzas had tomato listed under the toppings, but apparently that is the code for sauce. All of the individual components were good. The crust was perfect, both chewy and crispy. But it didn't come together. If you got a bite, and there were plenty, without the sausage or peppers, it was bland city. I should have just stuck with the tried and true pepperoni. This was my first meal in Providence, and it was a letdown. I believe that overall the restaurant probably deserves more than two stars but I can only really judge by the bummer of a pizza I got read more

The food would have been otherwise good but the fact that we saw at least 3-4 different mice scurrying around at the foot of the unoccupied tables made us question the safety of our food. It changed the whole experience for us unfortunately. Sounds like it may have been an issue for this restaurant in the past when we let our server know what we had seen. read more

Fresh baked pizza. Thin crust. Some charring from the coal fired oven. If that piques your interesting, well here's a place you'd like. All pizzas are one size - 16", priced between $17-$28. As you'd expect, the lower price band has pizzas styles like cheese or margherita, while the higher band has lots of meats, and more interestingly seafood. If you want some variety, you can split the pizza style half and half. Pick 2 varieties, and you'll be charged whatever the more expensive style is. I mix-and-matched my way to the Clam Pizza ($22 / full pizza) and Pesto Shrimp ($22 / full pizza). Both were savory, briny, salty, vibrant, and aromatic. The clam pizza had copious amounts of garlic and rosemary, while the pesto shrimp had cherry tomatoes to brighten up the pesto. read more

This place was absolutely popping on a Saturday night. Every table was full, and this is a big place! My partner and I managed to score the last two seats at the bar, from which we observed that tables became available relatively quickly. If you come on a busy night, my guess is you won't have to wait too long to be seated. With cold glasses of locally brewed craft beer in hand, we studied the pizza menu before deciding on a classic pepperoni pie. It didn't take long for our beautiful order to arrive, an oblong disc with square cuts, affording everyone their choice of edge-to-middle ratio. The pizza was great! I liked the crispy crust and the cuppy pepperoni. Robust sauce and quality mozz. I would have loved to try more topping combinations but that will have to wait for next time. read more

Went here on a Wednesday for their half-price special of the month pizza. It was delicious! However, I would never pay full price for one of their pizzas because they're pretty small. I gave my mom two slices and ate the rest with ease. The September special is their Vineyard pizza that normally cost $25. It has grapes, roasted red onions, pancetta, fontina cheese and other ingredients. The dough was cooked perfectly with a good amount of chew without being too floppy. And the toppings were great. The bites with the grapes and red onions along with the fontina cheese were my favorite. The cheese was melted flawlessly. There was barely any pancetta on the pizza, but I expect that nowadays with pizza places barely putting any meat on their pies. Chill vibe inside, good service. read more

Visited on 7/14/24 at approx. 5:30 PM, a party of 4. - First, the service was excellent. No complaints there :) -Food - ordered two pizzas. One containing meat and the other was a mozzarella/basil. The meat pizza was dripping with grease which caused the crust underneath to be saturated and soft. We could barely pick up the pieces of pizza without it hanging down and toppings spilling off. We couldn't really eat it because of how greasy the crust was. The mozzarella/basil pizza was fine. We didn't order appetizers or dessert. Free refills on the soda/iced tea. - Atmosphere - loud and boisterous from patrons at 5:30 PM. Kitchen is visible from the dining area. - Location - good location, some street parking. There is a paid parking lot immediately across the street. Very easy walk from the convention center and areas of downtown. - Disability access - easy access for cane/walker - no steps to enter. The front door would be able to accommodate a regular sized wheelchair but not a bariatric wheelchair from what I could tell. There are open floor tables with chairs, and raised top tables, and booths. I did not visit the restroom while at the restaurant. read more

I was wandering around near Rusty and thought that in Providence I could find two of my favorite things, shellfish and pizza being as hell. This is both a Port city and has a big Italian community. So I went on yelp and put an "clam pizza," and was surprised that it actually was a category. This restaurant was the first to come up and it was only half a mile from where I was so we wandered over. Everything was fantastic. The pizza was great! Crispy tasty great ingredients. Arugula salad was terrific also. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is old lofty like and the service was spot on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got lucky and I suggest you do the same. read more

The pizza is out of this world good. I had the shrimp pizza on one side and the clam on the other. They were both equally amazing. Go!!

Came here for a graduation party and was extremely impressed with the service, the food, and the ambiance. We took up about 4 tables around the entrance of the dining room and we had a couple little kiddos and ample "moving around" as the various parties chatted with one another. A couple different staff members came around and checked in to see if we needed more drinks and/or wanted to order anything. I felt that it was the exact appropriate amount of "checking-in". The barbeque pizza, the wings, the mozzarella sticks (with the sauce), the Aperol-spritz-like drinks, cannoli's, and anything/everything else we tried were scrumptious. A few of us espresso martini shots for a night cap and everyone left fat and happy. Thank you so much! read more

We stopped in on a Wednesday night and the place was packed! I'm assuming there was a show or something going on. Luckily we were able to be seated at the pizza counter and I'm glad we were! Was perfect for the two of us and had a front row seat of all the pizza being made. Pizza was very good and so were the drinks! We will definitely be back but next time make reservations so we can get a table. read more
