    This is one of my favorites. Caribbean crunch

    Living in MI there is no other pizza better than Sahara's. Zach manages the shop and has personal service to each island resident. The salads are good, wings, bread, everything. I highly recommend anyone visiting as well to try this place. You won't regret it. So Worth it! Delicious!

We got seated, but there was no wait time. We chose outdoor seating because the weather was nice. For drinks, we ordered a raspberry Italian soda and a sprite. The sprite tasted watered down, and had no flavor. The raspberry Italian soda was delicious though! When our server took our order, i believe he took the order wrong. We asked for a pepperoni puntura, and from the looks and tastes it was a simple pepperoni pizza. This was disappointing because we always get pepperoni puntura and were fondly looking forward to that pizza. If I really wanted a simple pepperoni pizza then I would have bought dominos. It was missing the honey and the cheese they add on top, which is why I'm saying that they gave us a pepperoni pizza. For the price you would think the service would be immaculate but from the visit, clearly they don't pay attention to the customers. The Margherita pizza was delicious and would definitely order again! No complaints for that. The restaurant was full of people and had a good ambiance. However, we were never checked up in during our visit until we pointed it out. All together, I would not recommend this location but the Ravenna location has been my favorite spot of mioposto.

We were there for a large dinner gathering of 10, and the most impressive part was that all of our meals were served at the same time. Something that's not always easy for restaurants, especially when they're full and they have a large party where folks are ordering all sorts of different things from multiple pizzas to pastas to salads... I ordered the lamb shank which was delicious. The meat was tender, had good flavor, sodium level was balanced, which doesn't always happen with lamb shank that's served with a broth. Pogacha served this over penelne pasta, which was fine and it's one of their signature dishes, I also think it would be really nice also over polenta. My only wish was that there were more vegetables in the broth. Because seasonal vegetables were listed on the menu item, I anticipated there'd be more in the broth than there were. I'd also recommend Pogacha updates the photo on their website, because this is shown over a very different pasta with vegetables over it and less broth. Oh and, I love that Pogacha still serves fresh warm bread right when you sit down. So tasty and such a nice touch. We'll definitely be back soon.

I tried: Light Appetite Salmon Special ($24.99): The salmon had incredible flavor and was buttery soft and flaky, served on a mound of sticky jasmine rice with a delightful sauce spread around it. Bella Mushroom Ravioli ($26.99): Large ravioli filled with flavorful mushroom stuffing and drizzled with a rich buttery sauce. 4 Seasons Pizza ($15.99): Super cheesy and delicious! The pasta was clearly homemade and had a satisfying bite. They do add a 4% "kitchen contribution" tax. Honestly, I would have rated this spot 5 stars, but I consulted my friends who rated it a 4. Very family friendly spot, as there were a lot of families. Located in a plaza in Mercer Island.

My nephew was with us and so he said he wanted pizza. So my brother-in-law found Pagliacci pizza about a few blocks away. Upon arriving, the restaurant was already busy. Walking over to the counter, they had a few slices that you could choose from. They looked really good. However, my older sister decided to order two whole pizzas. The counter person was really helpful and my sister decided on one plain cheese and pepperoni pizza and the second was a sausage mushroom pizza. We didn't order any other drinks since we were still thirsty from our walk around the botanical park but the total for the two pizzas came out to $50. That's kind of pricey.

We shared a pizza and ordered two pasta dishes, and they even let us order a full bottle of wine instead of just a glass.

The pizza dough itself have very strong firewood aroma, which is lovely. We ordered the Pappardelle Bolognese, and the unique, wide pasta truly set it apart from what you typically find at other restaurants. Since we were still hungry, we also tried the Rigatoni Alla Vodka, which came with spicy sausage. While I expected more of a vodka flavor, the bold kick of the spicy sausage made it intriguingly flavorful. We couldn't resist today's special dessert, the Panna Cotta. It had a distinctive gelatinous texture and even looked cute as it jiggled on the plate. This cozy spot is perfect for a date or a girls' night out--ideal for sharing a bottle of wine and enjoying the authentic Italian ambiance.

They offer happy hour all day on Sundays, and since they don't take reservations, it's first come, first served. We arrived a little after 2 PM and there was plenty of open seating inside and out. This location is in the Spring District, which is super convenient if you're taking the light rail since it drops you off right there. It's located next to a park like plaza with a small grassy area and little water fountains. According to their website, kids are welcome in the restaurant and patio areas until 8 PM (but not in the bar area), which makes this a nice family friendly spot earlier in the day. Later on, the vibe seems like it would be perfect for catching a game, grabbing drinks with friends, and enjoying a more energetic brewery atmosphere. We started with two Moscow mules. Since that's one of our go to drinks and we've had quite a few, these weren't our absolute favorite here. They leaned more on the lime heavy side, and we weren't sure if the ginger beer was just a little flat. That being said, we still finished them! The Birria nachos were the highlight for me! They were so delicious, and the beer cheese sauce was SO good. I honestly just wished there was more of it because it added such a great flavor. My only small complaint is that I wish the toppings were spread out a little more evenly so every bite had a good mix, but overall they were still really tasty. The Mac Attack was also good, but it didn't completely wow us. If you're looking for an ultra thick, super creamy mac and cheese, this probably isn't that style. Still, it was a solid dish and enjoyable! Overall, we had a great first visit and would definitely come back to try more of the menu. Great location right in the heart of the Spring District with a fun atmosphere!

I would have been clueless to this location, but a couple years back, I grabbed a physical ad and it listed this location. Mercer Island is a place I don't make a habit of visiting and this stop reminded me why. My brother used to live here, but that was 30 years ago. Pulling into the parking lot, everybody was acting like their car was priceless and you needed to give them space. If it takes you 45 seconds to back into a space everyone else is pulling into, you will catch my horn. It was a sunny day, but the real reason you needed sunglasses was to reduce the glare of the oversized ultraclear diamonds. I'll be blunt, I can't afford to live here, but it doesn't mean I can't shop there and truth be told. My car is just as nice or nicer than MI residents, I just never felt a need to live in financial isolation. We'll come back to the car. Almost everything you see here is 30% higher than a regular store, the only advantage to shopping her in my opinion is selection. You will find brands and items not normally found at Safeway or Fred Meyer, but I also saw sliced salami for nearly $24 a pound. You also see a lack of items on sale here which again, just reduces the overall value. I had people bumping into me, nudging me to get to items in front of me like I didn't matter and no one said excuse me or thank you for me yielding when they were clearly in the wrong. At one point, I literally had an employee apologize to me. He witnessed residents being entitled and rude to me and it was clear that was not the environment the store wanted to foster. My cashier was really nice, when I asked about her day, I think she quickly knew, I was not a local. Her face lit up and it was clear, she just wanted to be recognized. In the parking lot, I encountered a retired couple who had cut in front of me multiple times. They looked scared like I was there for payback. When I walked around there car the wife got worried, then I heard her tell her husband, "That's his car" next to their. As it turns out. We drive the exact same car, just difference colors.
