I'm someone who doesn't like to leave negative comments about a restaurant but this place really deserves it. I went in, got seated, and our server came. Our food came which was a kids Mac and cheese, a pizza and a salad. The food was ok however there was no warning how hot the plates were. We touched it not knowing this accidentally spilled out water which was our fault for spilling the water. Someone came and cleaned up the water however there was no water refills throughout the rest of our dinner. Would not be coming back. Please take this into your consideration when going to this restaurant. read more

Good food, reasonably priced with a warm, comfy environment and extremely friendly service. Also in a great location in University Village, which is lovely. read more

I used to really like Elemental Pizza. But the past 4 times I've taken out pizza, the crust leaves a lot to be desired. The pizza still tastes great but the crust is flat with no rise and doesn't have the nice chewiness to it. And yes, I've waited til after 4 orders to do this review but it hasn't gotten better. read more

We had the BBQ pork pizza and for $20 it had a handful of pork very little toppings. Others had the Yukon Gold pizza the potatoes were not cooked and it had an Awful taste. Way over priced for the quality. read more

This is a basic upscale pizza shop. They have pretty decent pizzas considering it's Seattle. There is no way it's close to the pizza shops I used to go to in Philly. Then again to be fair those shops only exist in Philly. We had the pepperoni and cheese (how basic can you get?). It was just fine and really superior to anything we have in Florida. read more

We've been here twice and both times have ordered pizza. I definitely love and enjoy a good wood fire pizza. There's just a different flavor to the crust and it gets nice and crispy. There are lots of options for pizzas and they are all different. There are the classics and the creative ones. I also appreciate this place because there's a ton of vegetarian options along with a ton of meat options. There's also pasta and sandwiches, but we have not tried those yet. The pizza we've ordered are the truffle mushroom with sausage, carnivorous, and the Yukon gold pizzas. All were very delicious and good pizzas with a generous amount of toppings, especially the meats. All the meat pizzas we've ordered had a good amount of meat on it. Like I said, there's just a different taste and feel with a wood fire pizza. The service is great when it's off peak time, but can be a bit slow when it's prime time. The ambiance is great and modern. The outside seating is a great option as well. Will definitely return here for the pizzas! read more

We're visiting from Austin Texas and stopped in here for a light lunch ! GREAT place !! Wonderful, friendly service and nice location, they sat us in a corner looking out over the square ! We enjoyed a 1/2 Wedge Salad, 1/2 Cesar Salad and a Burrata Appetizer (which was absolutely amazing !) Everything was Delicious !! read more

Easily 4 stars for the delicious pizza, but lowering down for incredibly poor service. It's a shame because the location is awesome and the space itself is super cool. A friend and I dined here yesterday around 2pm, so it was fairly empty. We ordered the Green Goddess pizza - which, if you go, I highly recommend because it's amazing! The crust especially is flaky and delicious. However, wait staff was inattentive and it seemed like they were incredibly disinterested. Our waitress spoke probably less than 10 words the entire time - including not filling up our waters, checking in on us, and flipping the check down without a word. For a place that has a lot of potential, the service here is very disappointing. read more

Really enjoyed a top notch pizza and Caesar salad. Great service from Kevin and great menu choices. Coming back soon

I had mild expectations for this place, we were just trying to find an okay place to eat after Id met my parents and the menu seemed to me kind of so-so.. The place had a nice interior with nice, comfortable seating first, but then I thought the food was amazing and worth writing a review for. I had the lemon cream pasta which comes with shrimp which they allowed to substitute chicken, it was amazing, great lemon cream flavor, chicken really good. We also ordered broccolini with buffalo sauce, which I'll get back to. And then a type of cheese and vegetable bread, which was really good although I don't like olives but I just had to pick them out. The one thing I sort of didn't like was the marinara sauce that came with, that's all. But back to the buffalo sauce, mmmmm mmm. I thought it was sooo good, my favorite I've ever had probably. Also the waiter was real nice and put up with my father's dad jokes. Overall, very pleased and exceeded expectations, though we didn't try pizza I would definitely recommend this place for it's other food alone. read more

Not too bad, a bit pricey for the quality of the food. Waitress was cool and the place was clean. Custom drinks were pretty good. read more

The kids would have rated this a 5, purely because of the dough (and subsequent baking of creations). I had the high heat, which was good, but was more of a medium heat (3/5). My wife had the garden variety, which she enjoyed but found the goat cheese a little salty. Kids enjoyed their margharita pizza and didn't have any room for their Mac & Cheese (but my wife thought it was excellent.) A slightly pricey but fun and tasty pizza experience. read more

Elemental Pizza - The High Heat - mine was 3/5 on the heat index. - Pizza Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The pizza was delicious, reasonably priced, and filling. I tried the Proscuitto and Arugula off the Specialty Pizza Menu. I appreciate the quality ingredients they use. I also had a Snickerdoodle cookie. Yum! The wait was almost a half an hour during the noon lunch rush, but they just opened, so I'm sure that will change. read more

They prejudge and are very mean. They advertise a happy hour menu and then expect you to eat an entire pizza to get another drink. Not normal. I will never go back and suggest not going here. Food isn't that good and the service is worse. Never again. read more

The host was completely rude- he would not accommodate our 4 month old baby. The host would not remove a chair so that we could pull the tiny car seat caddy up to the table, which is no bigger than their outdoor chairs and wouldn't not impede traffic. They did not have a sling and said we could only put the car seat unsecured in a chair. The host said this was restaurant policy and would not bend policy. The place was completely empty and we wanted to sit outside - where there was only one couple seated- so there was no crowd issue. Needless to say, we left and will never go back. read more

Good vibe. Great for causal Friday nights with close friends. The noise level is average. There's nothing much to be complained, not much to be highlighted either except for GELATO which is light and refreshing. Watermelon flavor is usually the best touchstone for gelato. They were out the night I visited. We had strawberries instead, which is just enough to tell the story. It's one of my top two gelato in town. Pizza is fine, not amazing. read more

Elemental Pizza - Carnivorous; Prosciutto and arugula - Pizza Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This was an unimaginative pizza...no flavorings, just plain tomato sauce. Very dull. The service was just okay and there was a weird floral stink smell. read more

Elemental has been a favorite of mine for a while now, but last night both the food and the service were pretty bad. First off, it was my birthday and I was celebrating with a group of 7. The restaurant was nearly empty at 6:30 pm, and the hostess acted so inconvenienced for having to put two tables together. Then it took 5 minutes to even get water. We ordered drinks and our food. After bringing out the food, our waitress didn't come by and check on us again, even though many of us would have liked to order more drinks. I ordered the lemon shrimp linguine, which is usually a favorite of mine. It was really bland this time. My boyfriend got the prosciutto and arugula pizza; they seriously cooked the prosciutto to the point it was like beef jerky... really unappetizing. Gratuity is included in the bill, even though our waitress certainly did not deserve a good tip. Not once did *any* of their staff say happy birthday or even like they somewhat enjoyed life. It was my 21st, too, so it was a very disappointing experience. On our way out, the hostess just looked at me and said nothing. Is it really that difficult to nicely say goodbye or happy birthday...? Overall, I'm not sure what happened. It was an incredibly slow Tuesday, so there's no excuse. read more

The service was good, the food was not so good. Everything tasted bland! I got a Margherita pizza and a homemade meatball sandwich which had no salt but the bread was good. I also got a appetizer dish that had Burrata cheese and pesto and grape tomatoes which was good, nothing special about it though. The meatball tasted like it was just plain meat, the sauce was extremely light but the bread taste good. The tomatoes sauce on the pizza taste out of a jar, no flavors once again, the basil was too cooked and dried/burnt, also I don't see much cheese on it at all either. The Italian sodas were not sweet at all and the whipped cream was definitely mediocre, maybe just some knock off from the grocery store. read more

Great deals on pizza during their happy hour. I got the Margherita pizza for $8. The crust was delicious and chewy and it had the perfect amount of sauce and cheese. Yum. read more

it was better than i expected but it was just okay. it was a lazy weekend and we stopped in when in u village. it was a bigger space than i thought and since we were early, it was pretty dang quiet white wine and pizza? check. split a leafy green salad, yep. solid and tasty, but nothing spectacular. staff was friendly and quick to us. wouldn't have aimed for here if it wasn't convenient but it was an okay stopover while cruising around the village. read more

First time here, and it was wonderful. The pizza and caprese salad was delicious. The host and server was awesome.

100% some of the best Caesar salad I've ever had. The dressing tastes homemade and it is a perfect mixture. If you go you have to have the curry chicken pizza, it is fantastic. The atmosphere is great, can't go wrong with this restaurant read more

Their pizza dough is a good size but the fillings are so few that one is eating plain bread for a good portion of the slice. Plus the dough is tough -- not chewy - but tough! We did not order drinks and settled for tap water and our server DJ - kept on pushing for us to order drinks -- 3 times! And when we were asking for more water -- it took them a while to come by as they continue to ignore our hailing hands! their beet salad is just not edible at all. Terrible food - worst service! read more

I'm not sure what's with the reviews and negativity with pizza. Elemental has been a go to for our family because they've been consistently a better pizza place than what you would find from chain pizza. It's wood fired pizza - it should cost more. The cost for money is insanely for the customer considering the overhead that they must have. Every time I go there's a smiling face behind the masks. 3.5 stars on yelp is criminal - expectations should be high for this place and they deliver on them. What's not to like? Also - for pregnant women out there - they have nitrate free pepperoni if that helps. read more

I didn't fine the service to be that good on the day I was there. The pizza is mediocre....not the best but it the worst.

One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. They have a great Caesar salad and the green goddess pizza is amazing. I dream about it. I add chicken and it's perfect. read more

The pizza was very good! No doubt about that! We happened to have to go to the mall they're located in and were very satisfied with the pizza and especially since we happened to go there during their happy hour. I was not a big fan of the ambiance and would not go there for a nice evening out or anything like that. It had a little bit of a cafeteria flair to it. read more

I didn't really need another reason to visit U Village... But now I have one! Elemental Pizza absolutely hit the spot during a recent U Village trip the other day. And thanks to all of the calories I burned from shopping my (big) butt off, I feel like I totally deserved some pizza. And an appetizer. And a drink! ;) Only wanting to spend about 30 mins eating before I got back to my shopping, I wasn't looking for a long, drawn out 2 hour meal. And while I'm sure you can take your time here and enjoy the beautiful restaurant and all of its gorgeous details, I got a quality, delicious meal in a timely and polite manner. I couldn't have asked for more! When I first walked in I almost felt like I was stepping into someone's family kitchen. The space is really warm and served as the perfect protection from all of the rain we've had so far this season. I removed the hood of my jacket and was met with the bright smile of a gal greeting me at a podium set back from the door. At my request she seated me in the kitchen area so I could pull up a stool and watch the pizza magic happen. I noticed various other seating options ranging from 4 tops to massive tables for much bigger groups. But this bar-style seating was perfect for me as I was alone and curious to watch their cooking process. My drink order was taken and I sat there in awe of this expansive, yet homey new restaurant. Dark wood floors, carera marble table tops, modern yet rustic light fixtures... It's really a gorgeous space! And just as awesome (more importantly) is the menu. I asked the server for suggestions and she was quick to point me in the right direction. I was really impressed with how confident she was with the menu and how well she knew it. With the restaurant being open for just a few weeks, its clear that there's a major focus on service here. (I'm jealous of the employees... I bet they got to eat so much free pizza to test the menu!) Because my hungry boyfriend was due home soon, I chose two pizzas and took the majority home with me. First up was an order of stromboli. Wanting to go veggie that day, they were happy to omit the pepperoni for me. Then I got a Yukon Gold pizza and a High Heat pizza. Everything was awesome! I'd highly suggest both pizzas and the stromboli. My only struggle now is going back and not placing the exact same order. I am dying to try everything on the menu. *** If you're planning to take pizza home, remember that wood fired pizza is best served fresh out of the oven. Taking it home or taking your time to eat it can result in some seriously soggy pizza. But knowing this, I threw the remaining pizza onto a skillet at home and it was just as delicious as it was at Elemental. But ideally, you'll want to eat this pizza in the restaurant for best results. read more

A friend and I came here for dinner recently. It is a really busy spot with all the shoppers. We loved the burrata and the Big Chop salad. We agreed these were the best items. The Big Chop certainly is huge. The bread served with the burrata is quite good. Nice and crusty. The pizza was tasty but too salty. We ordered the Prosciutto Arugula and the Yukon Gold. It was overwhelmingly salty. My friend's wine glass was dirty. We did get a new glass but that is kind of gross. Service was impersonal and hit or miss. We waited a long time for our check and to get our credit card run. The woman helping us kept asking how things were but it was like she just looked through us as we answered and barely listened to our response. Kind of odd. So, great appetizers. Good wine. Cute spot. Serve was just spotty and we both agreed the pizza was much too salty. read more

Walked in around 6:30pm to be told that they ran out of pizza crust. Seriously?!

We were in the U Village for some errands and ended up grabbing dinner in the U Village. I was surprised that during a weeknight there was a wait time for about 20-30 minutes. We walked around the stores but soon enough my phone buzzed and we headed back to the heart warming fragrances at Elemental. The bummer was we had only half an hour before we had to be in a different place. Luckily the waiter and staff moved really fast and got us settled in no time. We ended up with a veggie lover and meat extravaganza pizza. We also got the burratta salad which was very generous. We ended up taking the pizzas to go and even though we ate them half cold on the way to our next adventure I still really liked the flavors. Honest ingredients and a nice blend of sour and salty in each bite. Best part of all, the pizza didn't feel too heavy. read more

When I came to get a pizza I noticed the pizza line were texting while MAKING my pizza. That is a huge health code violation and I feel like I should contact the state about this! Who knows what germs are on their phones, that are then going on their hands and gloves and then my pizza? I would expect better from someone in the food industry. Not to mention how rude, ill-mannered and completely unprofessional the pizza line seemed. Perhaps it was the texting, maybe it was the vulgar language. Either way I will never be coming back, and I will NEVER suggest it for anyone else. read more

Instead of going to our usual serious pie for some tasty pizza, we decided to check out U-Vill's new Elemental Pizza this time. From Zao's to Grace's Kitchen to Elemental Pizza, I was curious to see how this experience would play out. All in all, it was fantastic! The pizza selections were great - lots of variety with a number of veg friendly specialties as well as a spicy pizza my husband quite enjoyed. A friend and I split the Margarita pizza and I ordered the caprese salad. In my normal pre-pregnancy days this combination would have done the job. In my 37th week of pregnancy I was still hungry. LOL! The size of the pizzas were individual sized and I would compare them as being slightly smaller for what you'd get at Serious Pie. A heartier pizza than what we had would potentially be more filling, though. The Margarita pizza was just alright (more cheese would have helped, mostly sauce it seemed like) though I admit the crust was pretty darn good! The other varieties I saw come out looked absolutely mouth watering. The husband LOVED his pizza too! The salad was fresh and delicious! All in all, the service was great and I really liked what they did with this space in turning this into a pizza joint. Great call. Great location. I will be going back to try some of the other pizzas on the menu which looked tempting. Lastly, save room for the ice cream sandwiches where you can choose from one of their yummy gelatos. It really completed the experience. Nice addition to U-Village! I hope to see it last! read more

I agree with another reviewer that mentioned Elemental Pizza is a huge improvement to the restaurant that was in it's place before. I hope it stays awhile, I love this place. Elemental is a huge hit for us as a family. My daughter is going through a picky eater phase but she will eat a plain cheese pizza. Service is wonderful here and very family friendly. Our server brought over some dough and a mini pizza plate for my daughter to play with. She shaped the dough and they bake her creation and bring it back to the table later with the real pizza. How fun for her. Also, depending on where you are seated in the restaurant, your kids will be entertained for a few minutes watching the pizza guy stretch and toss the dough in the air. Free entertainment. I'll take it. :) My recommendations: High Heat was my favorite, but it is also pretty spicy so not a good one to share with kids. My other favorite is the Fun Guy - mushroom pizza. And they have a nice selection of wines and beers. read more

Ok. First of all, go. Now. Try the stromboli. If you're like me and agree that the crust consistency-to-sauce-to-cheese ratio is critical, you have to try their stromboli. And don't be shy on dipping into their tomato sauce - it is sweet and smoky and is a perfect complement to most of their dishes. The pizza? As with the stromboli there's a nice balance of crust/sauce/toppings. That sauce tho. Seriously. Go in and try it with the stromboli. If you don't like the sauce, don't get a pizza. But that would be tragic because the "high heat" pizza (or somesuch) is a great blend of meat, peppers and cheese. I tried 3 pizzas - the "heat," the prosciutto arugula, and some sausage/greens situation. All were very, very good. They're carefully picking quality ingredients and - more importantly - being very deliberate on how they're grouped on the pies. Did I mention ice cream sandwiches with choose your own cookie/gelato combo? Would I lie to you? Their sandwiches are made with the same dough they use for their pizza crusts. And I can't wait to dig in. I'll happily head to the Village from Queen Anne to split a stromboli and salad over a beer. Can't wait to see what pizza combos are next. read more

How did they manage to take an insanely simple pizza - the margherita (my fav) and elevate it to 5 yum levels above the norm? It's craziness. I gobble up the whole thing every time I go. Hands down the best marg pizza I've ever tasted, and I've tasted dozens. My mom and I stopped in for a snack (ha ha) and ended up getting two appetizers, two pizzas and 2 glasses of wine. The happy hour goes through the weekend and has crazy good prices. The pizzas were $8 (regularly $13) and the roasted cauliflower ($3.75 which was insane on the yum scale, btw - nice and tender with a crunchy outside and perfectly seasoned...must replicate this recipe) and we shared a caesar salad ($5) which was really great as well. Huge sheets of parmesan on top too, which is one of my favorite things of all time. All in all, the perfect meal experience. Will definitely be back, and I will happily drive from QA to U Village just for this place. Serious Pie, take notes! read more

First impression walking into this place was good. Greeted by, I'm assuming, the manager of the restaurant. Next up, friendly waitress with some good banter and all was looking right as rain. Then, I order my pizza, Yukon Gold (pizza with potatoes, garlic oil, and mozarella) and ask for an additional topping of ricotta cause I'm thinking, "this pizza be lookin' a lil' boring". My waitress gives me the green light and I'm a-waitin' for some good eats. The place gets +10 experience points for having my pizza out in aroud fifteen minutes, which only bodes well for everyone that the hangry guy gets his food fast. But, unfortunately, after the pizza was set in front of me, it was all downhill from there: - 2 points: pizza came with no ricotta. asked my waitress about it, was informed they no longer have ricotta. bummer, but okay, slight ding, no one needs to die. - 8 points: um... someone forgot to add taste to my pizza. i saw sliveres of potatoes and the shimmer of oils was glistening, but my tongue couldn't trace any of it. -3 points: where's the cheese? from my slightly toasted shavings of mozzarella, i knew there was cheese, but somone back there was getting a bit stingy with it. -25 points: ohhhh, i get figured it out. the reason i couldn't taste any of the toppings was because the bottom of the pizza was burnt. it was like eating cigarette droppings. looked around to flag my waitress to let her know what was up, she was busy with the other tables. -8 points: ...and no water for quite some time. (the drawback of being such a chubster is that, if I'm starving, I'd rather eat than wait.... dumb) I won't go into the rubbery crust cause I'll start tearing up. I love pizza crust and that was criminal. Given the price that they're charging for their pizza, and what I've experienced, I'll stick with my Italian Family Pizza obsession or just save myself the pizza and bake a DiGiorno. The place and the staff, overall, were good, but although they, too, can make or a break a dining experience, the food should speak for itself, and the pizza told me it hates me. read more
