    Garlic knots
    Nikki T.

    Had the carry out special 1 topping 8.99 pizza and they allowed 1/2 and 1/2 for topping which was a plus. Pizza was pretty good and service was fast. Garlic knots had minimal garlic and just drenched in oil, subpar. For $15 total I'll take it.

    Only good pizza joint around. Same quality and speed for years now. Always a friendly face behind the counter and reliable delivery.

    Cheese, jalapeños, and mushroom! Pepperoni!

    Once again, we were all pleased with our pizza and wings tonight! It was my daughter's choice because she has always liked their wings especially the hot ones!

    Okay. Let's talk Rita's Pizza. Whether it's a traditional pizza or, my personal favorite, the thin crust... or even an oven-baked meatball sub, Rita's is the bomb! Nestled right next to MoMac Brewery, Rita's offers you the perfect pie, with or without beers... although, the combination is undeniable. At Rita's, everything is fresh. It's not a chain. They do it right... right down to the aforementioned meatballs, which are killer. I literally get them on everything I order, as the employees will attest. I'm not going to waste your time gilding the lily here. Just go out and get you a Rita's pie. Take it home or eat it next door, where Rita's is always welcome. You'll thank me later. Promise.

    Chicken Alfredo Pizza.. YUMMO

    We love, love, love a good pizza! Truth be told we usually follow a keto/low carb lifestyle but pizza is our weakness and we will not apologize LOL. So if you see us shoveling in a big slice just keep it moving, there's nothing to see here folks. Rita's chicken Alfred pizza is so word every stinking carb! OMG.. we love it! It's so cheesy, garlicky and that crust as an excellent bite. If you know, ya know. Of course they are a pick up and delivery spot so don't plan to sit down and take in the old school pizzeria ambiance but do like we do and pick it up, ask for lots of napkins and find a parking spot out in the big parking lot. I promise you it's so good fresh out the oven. The workers are nice and the pizza choices are vast. We have already been back twice and will gladly drive the 22 minutes to enjoy them again. Ok, go ahead and order y'all.

    Pizza X-Large meat lovers ,  I waited 40 minutes and my pizza arrived like this. Highly disappointed

    Trust the over 250 solid reviews on here praising this place and ignore the 10 disgruntled folks…read morewho clearly suffer from Karen/kevin syndrome. This is THE spot for locals in the Portsmouth area. It's no surprise you see reviews from patrons who drive from all over the Hampton Roads area to visit this gem! Service is so friendly and you can tell it is a TEAM! I sat at the bar so got to watch the open kitchen in action. Their system is down pat and you can tell everyone enjoys working with each other. Each dish I watched from prep to service was handled with meticulous care. PRIDE IN WORK AT ITS FINEST! Everyone works to serve you as a team as well, no worry about "bothering" another member of the staff for something, everyone wants you to enjoy your meal. I can tell there are a lot of local regulars as the staff was engaged on a level you only see when your clientele is consistent and have a vested interest in the success of the business. I've been to 16 countries and travelled all over the states, this is truly one of the most friendly establishments I've had the pleasure of being hosted at. On to the food! I see a few people complain about the small menu, that is the SMARTEST thing a business can do. Focus on what you're good at and demolish the competition. High Street Pizza and Pour delivers on this. My eyes were bigger than my stomach so I ordered the meatballs, the special for their pizza pie of the night (a pork belly, red onion, jalapeño, bbq drizzle dream boat of a pie), a tiramisu and two cocktails. The food in pictures looked smaller than in person... omg I ordered for about 4-5 people! But everyone was soooo good. Meatballs were tender with a fantastic red sauce. Pizza had a crispy buttery crust and the pork belly was rendered perfectly. Tiramisu was fantastic (not sure if that's an in house make or pre done, but it was on point), and the cocktails were perfectly poured with just the right amount of liquor. I left with probably two meals worth of takeout the portions were so large and I can't wait until I'm hungry again. I'm new to the neighborhood and as everyone knows, you need to find your fav local spot to frequent. I'm proud to report, High Street Pizza and Pour House has just taken that spot!

    It's my own fault. Being a vegan in a world where eateries are not always vegan friendly, I have to…read moredo a lot of research before I even go to a restaurant. And I didn't do enough research about High Street Pizza, I guess. I always check the menu before I even leave the house when going out to eat. I look for vegan friendly items, and sometimes I call to confirm. The exception is PIZZA. Whenever my not-vegan husband and I decide on pizza, I already know I can customize any pizza with veggies instead of meat and cheese. It was date night Thursday, and High Street Pizza had awesome reviews. I did the "vegan thing" and checked the menu first. I found a lot of vegetable toppings, so I knew I could craft a pizza to my liking. We drove from Va Beach to Portsmouth for dinner. I learned that I cannot craft a pizza with no meat and cheese because High Street Pizza will not make a pizza without cheese. I had no idea you can't just take cheese off of pizza. I do it all the time at other pizza places, but the pizza here must be constructed with cheese. I was told I could get vegan cheese, but I didn't want that. Option 2-order a salad. I opted for the Greek Salad, hold the feta. And since the menu said it came with a red wine vinaigrette dressing, I could eat that instead. After placing our orders, the waitress returned and informed me the red wine vinaigrette was made with mayonnaise at High Street Pizza. The very name of the dressing is a list of the ingredients: Red wine Vinegar How does MAYONNAISE get in there? I even Googled it to make sure I wasn't getting it confused: extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, mustard, oregano, and salt Of course, the dressing can be altered to be "creamy". And yes, there is a CREAMY red wine vinaigrette. But that's not what the menu said. High Street Pizza listed the dressing as just "red wine vinaigrette." I didn't eat anything that evening, but my husband loved every morsel of his sausage and mushroom pie, however. He even said it was one of the best pizzas he ever had! In their defense, High Street Pizza doesn't tout themselves as a vegan friendly restaurant. I am not disappointed about the pizza because my choice not to eat vegan cheese is my preference. They tried to offer an alternative, I chose not to opt for the cheese alternative. Consider listing your salad dressing as "creamy red wine vinaigrette" though. It makes a huge difference leaving the word out.

I asked for sparkling water and was immediately asked if I'd like to split it. Since the menu doesn't indicate that it's served as a one-liter bottle, the question caught me off guard. Three coworkers and I agreed to share it. The problem was actually getting the water. Everyone else received their drinks while we waited. We had to ask three separate times before it finally arrived, nearly 20 minutes later. By then, we were all thirsty, and splitting a single bottle meant each of us got barely half a glass. As for the food, I ordered the lunch special: penne with chicken and broccoli. I managed only a few bites before giving up. The dish was swimming in grease, which completely overpowered any other flavor. It tasted unseasoned and lacked any real depth. A coworker offered me a slice of his stromboli, but unfortunately it wasn't much better. The vegetables were undercooked, and the overall flavor was bland. Between the slow service, confusing drink situation, and disappointing food, this was not a place I'd return to or recommend

It had a great bite, slightly crispy, super savory with a touch of sweetness and the brisket was the savory star of the show. I added a bit of red pepper flake and it took it from a 9 to a 9.5 dare I say 10.
