Salads are beautiful, pizzas from the brick oven are the most delicious thing ever! Be prepared for a wait, unless you go in off hours.

I tend to keep it simple with the classic Margherita , as I think his raw tomato sauce is the best I’ve ever had. My husband swears by the Soppressata , which has ruined me for all other pepperoni pies. Read more

I call it 'stah 'zah: Simple pizza with a hipster vibe . You're not gonna get super cheap or super fancy here, but it's a nice middle ground that appeals to both pizzaphiliacs and casual eaters.

Ryan Price

Cocktails , wood fired pizza , fresh desserts , the bread (and by extension the croutons on the salads ).

Shawn Vitt

The current version of the seasonal roasted vegetable plate showcases smoky pardon peppers -- delicious, and not often seen on Portland menus.

Sara

Delicious fresh ingredients . Great atmosphere, and friendly staff . Prices are extremely reasonable.

Gwen Cummings

Generally a long wait but the pizza is delicious. A whole pie is perfect to split between two people

Janet Johnson

Don't miss the veg plate if you're hungry enough for both pizza and something else. And save room for some of the best desserts in town . My favorite pizza ? Prosciutto ? Soprasatta? They're all great! Read more

Benjamin Chait

Two pizzas feed three people. Mix and match, we’re a fan of the arugula , the olive and the arrabbiata!

Angela Wangela

Ask for table bread ; it's pillowy soft and is Ken's original expertise. Served with olive oil , sea salt and red pepper flakes .

Amy

The bacon pizza is a-maz-ing! Crispy bacon with a wonderful blend of cheeses . The mushroom wasn't too shabby either!

Elizabeth

Go later, after 8:30pm - the "forno" is at the right temperature says my Italian :-) haven't had a bad pizza in our numerous visits. La Pizza piu buona di Portland!!

GourmetLive

The pizza is delievered to me still seething with the oven's heat, the cheese fused into the slightly piquant tomato sauce , and the singed basil wafting its scent into the air.

Citrus salad was amazing and the Pizza was perfect.

Kristie Winberg

The sopressata is the best!

Design*Sponge

if you happen in when the Spring Onion pizza is on the menu, it’s a must-try. Read more

Try the Fennel Sausage & Onions Pizza - Add the side of arugula to any pizza for extra tasty nutrition points.

Get the handmade with calabrian chilis. Delicious.

Julie Morgan

Try the Olive pizza . The olive flavor bakes into every bite without being overpowering. Amazing!

Joseph Asbridge

Bacon pizza was good. Busy place but worth the wait.

Jed Bowtell

Luisro Rosario

Sorpressata with eddie rosetti

Kandace Brigleb

They have a simple child's cheese pizza that isn't on the printed menu.

Arbi Bi

First & last time there.

Courtney Shannon

You usually have to ask for it, but bread and olive oil are free.

Lisa S Wong

Arrive early, shortly after they open to get a seat. Pizza is worth the wait if you have time otherwise (40+ min wait).

Bill H

Awesome pizza . The cool, chatty, older bartender is actually Ken.

Sam Snead

The “Housemade”

Mike Mahanay

Go to Kens Artisan Pizza for the Prosciutto Pizza and Vanilla bean panna cotta for dessert . Read more

Unique take on pizza that's pretty awesome. One of our pizzas was amazing (Pesto) and one was bit too dry (buffalo chicken). Btw, don't skip the salads... share one before your pizza and you'll be :) - Josh Kill
