50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Portland

“Probably the best pizza in Oregon. I’ve had pizza scholls and this place is just as good or better. It’s also more reliable as far as actually being open. I like pizza scholls but it’s a nightmare to try and plan any pizza or if it’s even open on that day. This a great reliable pizza place that is right up there or better. The parking is a bit terrible cause it closer to inner city and new seasons doesn’t allow outside parking. The full pizzas are smaller so two hungry can share an entire pizza or maybe one really hungry. I will be back I haven’t tried the folded pizza yet.“

“This was an Experience!! Hands down the best pizza we had ate in a long time! We tried 4 different types and each did not disappoint. Our most favorite was the fennel sausage pizza. The sausages were so perfectly cooked and seasoned it was a true delight!! All four of us agreed on this. Also the handmade meatballs are a most for apps!! Comes with 4 meatballs and a wonderful amount of their homemade tomato sauce with a side of garlic bread. You need this in your life folks! The pizza crust was so spectacular, it was little chewy, little burnt/blackened portions that added to the layers of flavor. We were still talking about the crust the next morning.
There is a line of you don’t get there early. But believe me you want to be there about 20-30 min before they open. Because the line got long behind us around the block. You want to be the few and chosen ones you get the first sitting. Your taste buds and stomach with warmly thank you! This was our first time trying this artistic pizza and we will be coming back, many many times. Thank you Ken’s Artisan Pizza ???“

“Wow! Where do I begin. Everything I eat here is always delicious and you can tell the owners care so much, about the food, the dinning space, and their team. I love the wine list and the rotating pizza specials. Definitely a favorite spot of mine and I am so happy they are in the neighborhood.“

“Had to have some pizza therapy after the presidential election results. This place was great. Beautiful spot and really good pizza. We had the mushroom truffle pizza, which was perfect. The crust was great! I forgot to get a picture of the whipped ricotta with honey and garlic. The server recommended it and it was a perfect add on. We’ll definitely return here!“

“Best NY pizza in town. You can truly taste the quality.“

“Great food and pizza. Worth the 1.5 hour wait!“

“Such a great neighborhood joint. Everything is on point every time I come here. Never let down by this place. Oh. And the people are amazing too!

Parking: Can be tough to get a parking spot but definitely worth it.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome here.“

“Finally got to taste today!!! So amazing. This is truly amazing pizza. If you are in Portland, this is where you need to eat 😋“

“Love this little gem on Burnside! Great food, good people, charming experience. We try to stop in for at least a slice whenever we’re near, or for a whole pie. Fantastic crust with delicious and creative toppings.“

“Thank you Firehouse team for making our wedding day go perfectly! We booked out the entire restaurant for the day, so we were able to decorate and get ready starting at 11am. With our 42 guests, we held the ceremony in the patio out front, then had dinner upstairs and the dance party downstairs. The food was incredible and we heard so many compliments about it from our guests. Working with the events manager (Alec) was great with his quick responses, flexibility, suggestions, day-of coordination, and DJ-ing!!“

“What a Hidden Gem this pizza place is..I’ve never liked pizza this much in my life. I’ve tried The Meat sweats, Kevin pepperoni and my favorite HWY 99. All excellent, I’m literally dropping thinking about these pizzas right now 🤤 Don’t forget to get a cookie for dessert, won’t regret it. Friendly staff, atmosphere is nice too..“

“You cannot say anything bad about please place, sorry. They are one of the best kept secrets in Portland.“

“Had the sprouts and Rhode Island style calamari. Outstanding.“

“I live next door to Meta Pizza and it's a daily struggle. As soon as they fire up the ovens and the smell of dough and garlic fills the air my mouth waters and I have to battle myself as to whether I'm gonna eat yet another slice that day . The meatball special with saffron Milanese and nutmeg ricotta is out of this world. I usually give into temptation. Highly recommend adding the lamb sausage to the Grandma Style!“

“Excellent thin crust pizza with just the right color but not burnt! The crunch says it all.“

“Visited Baby Doll Pizza last weekend for the 2nd time & the pizza did not disappoint once again! I tried the veggie & the pepperoni this time. The portions are big slices, so I usually order two. I'll state that I don't really care for pizza since I'm lactose intolerant, but this pizza is never too harsh on my stomach, which makes me a fan ? I definitely recommend this pizza spot for those that love pizza & for those that have a hard time with pizza. Two thumbs up ? ?

ALSO! There are two styles of sitting areas. There's a family style regular dining area & on the other side of the wall, there is a bar setting area that includes a cool looking bar & nightlife vibes. It's a chill place to hang no matter who you're with!

Kid-friendliness: It's kid friendly!

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, there is wheelchair accessibility“

“Can’t beat the $8 margherita pizza! The vegan pizza was excellent. Very nice clean and casual atmosphere.“

“a good slice of pizza at a good location“

“This is some damn good pizza. I had a classic pepperoni in their “deep dish” style, which isn’t so much a deep dish as it is a thick crust. I appreciated that since generally I’m not a fan of the Chicago style deep dish, despite being a midwesterner.

It’s a unique pie all around. I really loved the sauce, cheese blend, and crust. The crust was baked perfectly, with a slight char and nice chewy consistency. It was an interesting crust, but morning a bad way. The sauce was bright and delicious, perfect for dipping (I’m a red sauce guy). The cheese blend was also delicious; I think they throw a little cheddar in for good measure which I love on a pizza.

This place is a hidden little gem, I will definitely be going back. They have a large selection of pies (the chicken pesto looked bomb) and you can order either the thicker “deep dish” style or a thin crust.

The pizza was so good I almost forgot to mention that they also do milkshakes, which is a bonkers combo but I love it (they have subs as well) and love that someone is obviously chasing their dream here. I had the cookies n’ cream shake and it was divine. Thick and with a couple whole cookies thrown in, just ‘cause.

The owner helped me and was super nice and explained everything for me. I nearly finished the entire pie to myself because it was so good. Highly recommend!!

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, nice flat parking lot.“

“Best pizza in Portland… maybe the world. 12/10!!!“

“I applaud you for being open!!! I ordered my food Togo on the phone. When I got there front door was open with a table blocking which there was a sign order here. I went to back door which was closed, I opened cause I guessed maybe that’s where you get your food Togo and it was to be picked up there. I come thru he said you order from the front( also didn’t really give me a chance to politely saying anything) and noted there was another guy in there that looked to be picking up food as well. Then went to the front he come to the front door with a iPad to take my order and I say a order Togo for Robbie. Then was “owe ok”. Get home the food was great some of the best pie I have ever had! Only reason I explained this was I think clear signage would make this transaction easier. This is a very tough time and people want to be safe. I also LIKED he asked to pay Cc over the phone and asking for the tip ahead of time does limits person contact. Will be back!“

“The Mediterranean pizza was delish. It just happened to hit the spot for me. I will definitely go there again and highly recommend it.“

“Ordered the pearl. I was probably not smart enough to realize from the name that this was going to be a white sauce pizza.

Despite that, it was pretty good. A bit on the chewy side. If you like a crispy crust, this place might not be for you.

Visited during happy hour. Life of pi / pizzeria otto have a better happy hour deal in comparison“

“I no longer live in Portland but went here regularly when I did. They were open late had in cozy food truck complex. Pizza was always cooked perfectly and they used to use Follow Your Heart cheese. I wonder if they still do. Also they had natural sodas I loved and the price was not too high. Updated from previous review on 2024-12-30“

“Looooved this great pizza!“

“Irreplaceable, one of a kind, unparalleled. Saucy Caesar, do not sleep on the square slice do not sleep on the ranch

Vegetarian options: Great vegan pizza very imaginative. I know a vegan slice with caramelized onion hates to see me coming“

“Amazing drinks. Seriously divine strawberry lemonade with booze! Boneless chicken wings easily eaten with chopsticks! And terrific pizza. Also the overworked waitress was great. Also also they have a ton of board games!“

“Best pizza in Portland… maybe the world. 12/10!!!“

“Some of the best pizza I’ve had in Portland.“

“I just placed my first order tonight. I am still eating the pizza as I am writing this. I have eaten many a pizza here in Portland but rarely am I floored by the quality of it. Everything about this pizza is superb, the flavors are balanced perfectly, It's not too greasy its not too dry. Its crispy yet fluffy, sweet yet savory. I challenge anyone to do a better job with the materials and tools presented. So many hole in the wall pizza joints here in the city but I think its a crime that this one doesn't have a line out the door on a Friday night. Definitely made my top 5!

This pizza is also cheaper than any I've bought this year! I will be back very very soon.“

“Without a doubt the best pizza spot in town! Went there and ordered the Defino, and my socks were literally rocked. My server Mary was absolutely incredible. She was patient with me while I asked about every pizza and sauce, and her attitude was so welcoming and happy. Definitely makes for an awesome first impression. My only complaint is that they aren’t open 24/7 for all my pizza cravings ???“

“Amazing bread and pastries. Get there early for best sweets selection.“

“This is the eggplant pizza.. hardly any eggplant paid for extra onions, can’t find em.. the flavor of sauce was good but prolly won’t be back. Sorry guys“

“Oh brother had pizza there today and it was the best! Awesome service with a great attitude definitely going to stop in when ever we go through Portland.“

“We order from this place and drive 4.5 mile round trip to get it, XL perfect size for fam of 5, and some of the best sauce in the city.“

“The best GF crust! The Gluten-free Chicago Deep Dish Pizza is truly amazing. Legit GF deep-dish pizza like I’ve never seen before. Great menu, slices, small (full) bar, and people. Check this place out!

Dietary restrictions: Great GF pizza!“

“My wife saw this place on Instagram several months ago and it's been on our list ever since. It didn't disappoint. Several different focaccia pizza varieties and some items to take home for later. There isn't a lot of seating, so be prepared to possibly take it on the go.“

“My wife and I are vegan. We lived the vegan pizza options. We will be back.“

“Amazing pizza! Amazing staff! Also gives back to the community at every opportunity. The pizza is some of the best in Portland. They put some love into those pies!“

“Excited to have another spot for pizza over here in SE. Kind staff, excellent location (though parking blows, but that’s my problem), and the quality of ingredients is clear. Great sauce and cheese ratio. Admittedly, I prefer Paladin more, but still excited to have them!“

“Great place, nice ambience. Service was awesome. Appetizers and salad came out quickly. Pizza came out right as we finished then up. Pizza was cooked perfectly and the toppings were generous. It's a bit on the spendy side, but I highly recommend this place. 👍“

“Really this is the kind of experience, especially on a beautiful spring evening, that continues to define Portland dining's ineffable qualities of fresh seasonal flavor, friendly service, and relaxed atmosphere -- remarkable especially for being located on busy MLK Blvd. All that plus a community ethos that is exceptional. Can't wait to go back.

Parking: Only a very small lot; plenty of street parking within a few blocks west of MLK.

Kid-friendliness: Probably wouldn't be my top spot to bring a kid for dinner ... But the brunch menu might be another story.“

“Had a wonderful time here today. If you are in the area, stop by.“

“Great addition to saravasa. They just add some pin ball machines in the bad habit room. Very fun. Also they rent it out to private party's to. Love the front bar always a new beer to try, good food to. Everyone is very friendly. Great little Neighborhood bar. Thay got the hard stuff to.“

“Great music; great food; great service. The best pizza in Portland. Great cocktails - although they are pretty small, yet pricey.“

“Yummmy pizza, amazing service and nice outdoor seating. One of my favorites with my kiddo.“

“the service was really fast, i got my pizza right when i ordered basically! the person behind the counter was really cool! i accidentally spilled my drink and they promptly helped me clean it. the service was 10/10. the music playlist was playlist was great too! i will definitely be back in the future.“
