Nothing special about this pizza place. The inside of Forge Pizza reminded me of a Yardhouse. I do like how they have a patio area though. Food: The two stars are only going to their Brussel Sprouts; which you can for sure make it at home. Their pizza though? We should have went to Pieology. We waited approximately 30 minutes for a pizza that was literally a little bit smaller than Pieology. We ordered the Mediterranean and it was not worth the price. It lacked flavor. Actually, our whole meal wasn't worth $31. We even added an egg for an extra, what? $2-$3?! The egg made the pizza a little better. Half of the pizza crust was burnt. Not enough toppings. Service: Could be better. We barely saw our waitress. She never came back after getting our order to check up on us or even top off our waters. Even when requesting out check I had to go up to her. We only saw her when she took our order and when she took our payment. I'm not sure if she was very, very busy or she was the only waitress, but I just don't think that's a good enough excuse for bad service. Like I said, we should have ate at Pieology or the Thai place next door. Do I recommend this place? Not entirely. They are tooooo expensive for something you can make at home. read more

Forge Pizza - Brussel Sprouts - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

Made a last minute reservation for a large group on a Thursday night. The hostess was very kind in doing her best to accommodate our request on short notice. Unlike other restaurants, Forge does not have a limit of how long you can stay at your table. So unfortunately, on a very cold day, the table inside we would have been seated at still had guests that had been there for over two hours (I only know this because I had called 2 hrs before we arrived). We ordered 8 pizzas and some appetizers. The appetizers were great! Pizza was O.K. I expected more from a pizza in this area given accessibility to fresh ingredients. I had the Mediterranean pizza and also tried the cheese pizza. My guests tried a variety and enjoyed the meat lovers but said that the taco pizza wasn't so great. The ingredients on the Mediterranean were good and so was the sauce. However, the crust was slightly soggy, I was excited for a wood fired pizza, but this one felt rushed. It would be great to have more meatless options available on the menu. My favorite thing I ate was cheese curds and buffalo cauliflower! I did appreciate the server offering to split the bill with food on one tab and alcohol on the other. She was very easy going and friendly. Tips for coming here: order your pizza well done, modify red pizzas if you don't eat meat. read more

Service was not the best, could improve. Took quite a while to get 3 medium pizzas to our table, our waittress forgot to bring a beer a few times. Pizzas were okay, nothing amazing. The chicken pizza was good. Ambiance was okay, loved their fireplace. read more

I've never been to a restaurant and turned away because they were short staffed. Lol. If you're too short staffed that you turn people away, you might as well close for the day, in my opinion. My family and I showed up here on Memorial Day for lunch to celebrate my birthday. We've been here before and enjoyed the food and wanted something laid back so we decided on the Forge. When we first walked in, another man turned to me and told us that we'd be waiting awhile because they were short staffed - he was there for 20 minutes picking up a door dash order. I assumed it would just take awhile to be seated. I've worked as a waitress before and I know what's it like to be short staffed and busy. But 1) there wasn't very many people dining in the restaurant & 2) we weren't in any hurry. So I stood and waited for a host/hostess to acknowledge me. But we stood at the hostess stand for some time before someone finally asked how they could help us. I asked how long the wait would be for a party of 9. The guy responded, "let me ask if we can accommodate you guys first". Anyway, he came back and told us our party was too large for the amount of staff they had on a front end and that they wouldn't seat us. All that to say - if you have a large party, I would recommend planning somewhere else to eat. We ended up going right next door! They were amazing and so so so so friendly! read more

Super dog friendly restaurant and bar. Staff loved my little pooch and gave him a biscuit and a bowl of water. They have a great selection of beers on tap. Mostly local breweries and had a good variety of types. Had one of their brews and a cocktail called Sugar Daddy which was a pineapple drink with rum and tequila. Great! Truffle fries were great. Comes in a small bucket. But plenty of it. Nice and crisp, and not burnt. No small pieces either. I hate when you're left with end pieces. Had the mushroom pizza. Comes with sausage. Can definitely make this a personal pizza but easy to share with another. Will come back because of the nice outdoor seating, dog friendly staff and their beers are great! read more

Good food and good service. We had a reservation for a party of 8c we were seated right away and our order was taken within a few minutes. The Mushroom pizza was our favorite! The fish and chips were really food as well. read more

Just went there today. 1) That plaza seem to be a new area. Parking lot look clean and nice and next to the Napa river. 2) Decor is very nice, modern look and has out door seating, will be nice to sit outside in summer. Today, is November, kind of cold. I sit inside. 3) Today, I went for happy hours. It is very good deal. Order, cheese curds, meat ball appetizer, mushroom pizza and mandarin orange salad, and chocolate mousse and one beer. The bill is around $60 before tip. It is very good deal. Feed 3 persons. 4) The pizza is very good, almost like pizza in Rome. I have been to Italy multiple times. This Forge Pizza's pizza is really good and almost like I am in Italy. 5) Desert is good, good portion also. 6) Today, is after thanksgiving and also around 5:00pm, so it is not crowded, I don't know about regular weekend. 7) Waitress and employees there are pretty nice. 8) Food arrived very fast. Highly recommended, will go there again. read more

We are spending Valentine's Day weekend in Napa and are happy to see that restaurants in this county are open once again for outdoor seating and taking reservations! For a Friday night the outdoor patio Forge Pizza was busy but seating it's patrons well within social distance guidelines and although it was a cold evening, they were prepared to have heaters at each table. Our server Bryan was very friendly and courteous and wore a mask the entire time he tended to our needs. We took his suggestions for appetizers and they did not disappoint. The Buffalo cauliflower and cheese curds were delicious. Both pizzas we ordered we uniquely different and tasty a d enough to bring leftovers to our inn. read more

My hubs and our 1 yo son came to Forgre on a Sunday about 5pm looking forward to our favorite west coast pizza joint! Little did we know that they don't really want to seat families with young children in strollers or needing a highchair. The host offers us a tucked away little table, stating that they chair or stroller is a fire hazzard. Ironically, the last time we dined here, the host just removed a chair from a 4 top so that we could comfortably set the highchair and then enjoy our dinner. My hubs was so annoyed that we just left, but I did let them know that their lack of hospitality has forever ruined Forge for us. This was the first time we were baby shamed, I guess that's what we should expect from Napa? read more

*COVID Review On a search to satisfy a huge pizza craving (yes...I get those!), hubby and I stumbled upon this gem! Mask required and social distancing enforced. Very friendly service, and your choice of indoor or outside seating. Modern decor within a large open space, very cool for groups and social gatherings. We had the crispy calamari to start (very good) and went on to one of the signature pizza options. Wood fire forged pizza with all fresh and tasty ingredients! We opted for the pepperoni pizza which was really good and made for a satisfying meal. And just because its Napa, we got wine with that! Great spot, great experience, great atmosphere, great service, good location. Go! *accessible entrance and outdoor* read more

After a very long day's drive, my companion and I had a delicious pizza dinner at Forge. Cole, our server, was attentive and accommodated our food requests. The pizza was delicious, although the crust could have been a tad crisper. We took leftovers with us. The salad was more than enough for two. When Cole listed the dessert options, we settled on the brownie sundae; it did not disappoint. The raspberry sauce and soft serve ice cream topping with chocolate drizzle was a chocaholics dream. Again, the serving was generous. We will put Forge on our restaurant rotation when we are in Napa again. read more

Nice atmosphere and great for families! Especially kids who are use to places like pizza hut and dominos. For food connoisseurs its well below the bar of SF pizza restaurants like Delfina, Montesacro, or Napa's Azzuros. Its kind of like a sudo Italian pizza. The fresh mozz and basil are the, along with the dough, but the sauce is tasteless and the implementation is wrong. Its more like Mod pizza. Also the fries were soggy and well below the bar of Super Burger. The cheese sticks were not good and were breaded like the worst pizza places would do. It seems a way to cut cost on cheese in a way that makes my $17 cheese sticks instant landfill. The dog wasn't even interested. Maybe Forge is catering to kids which would make more sense of the chefs implementation decisions. In which case. Great! Awesome place! For an adult who has been to Italy, NY, SF, or even downtown Napa(ca Momi, Azzuros), look elsewhere. read more

This was originally launched in Oakland. I saw this while going to South Napa Century Center. It's in a newer building, the entrance features an art peice, the decor is very modern, there's a fire hearth, a big television airing sports, and stunning patio. I do like the atmosphere here. It's Pizza time. Today, I went with The Philly. It have garlic purée, steak, onion, bell pepper, cheddar cheese, mozzarella, and cilantro. This isn't exactly like a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwhich, but I had to get it. I had a few versions of this Pizza out there, and some of them weren't executed successfully as intended. I was excited to give this a go. The Pizza looks better than expected. It was really hot. The bell pepper really brightened it up. The dough was chewy, but not too chewy. I liked the crust. Everything worked harmoniously together. They got some points for creativity. This is one of the best Pizzas in the Bay Area scene. I give this 4.3 stars. read more

Forge Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

The place is nice and casual the patio area is nice to hang out... however the food was not the best, my husband got a stomach ache from the new chorizo pizza. The pizza was not good a little too soggy and greasy. I got a regular burger and honestly in and out burgers are better. I feel that for 20 dollars a burger should be delicious not taste less and made out of old ground beef. read more

If you think, as did I, that Forge is only about pizza are you in for a HUGE, DELIGHTFUL surprise. While it does have pizza, not like the pizza at Mountain Mike's or other well-known pizza places, its menu boasts other offerings that are downright tasty-licious. Our group of four began with two appetizers; the buffalo cauliflower that was served tossed in buffalo sauce, and the truffle fries. Both were excellent. As a main dish, I had the chicken tenders with fries, my husband had the grilled cheese with tomato and a salad, and the couple that joined us - one had the angry shrimp (he said it was delicious) and the other had a pizza (sorry I don't remember what kind but she loved it). I have never had chicken tenders so tender (really) and flavorful; the best I've ever had. My husband's grilled cheese was done to perfection. The service was excellent and I can't wait to return. And yes, I'm going to have the chicken tenders again. They were done to perfection. Thank you Forge Pizza! read more

This is the place to be on a Monday. Happy Hour ALL DAY! Our most favorite happy hour menu item is the PB&J. Margherita Pizza, Beer and a shot of Jameson for $15. Such a clever name. Best Buy in Napa for sure. Pizza is delicious! I believe there ranch is house made, it's super yummy with the Pizza. read more

Forge Pizza - Was supposed to be a pepperoni pizza. No pepperonis. - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

Pizza was very good. Service good. Only reason for 4-5 is the acoustics were poor (ie place was loud).

First of all, the service was great. The boneless chicken wings were tasty. It had meaty, juicy parts and crispy crunchy parts to it which I throughly enjoyed. The only thing I didn't care for was I prefer my wings to be drenched in sauce and these just weren't, also the ranch wasn't great. It was very watery and thin. The pizza crust is thin and soft. The outer crust had a crispness to it. The pepperoni tasted great, and the cheese was interesting in a good way, I don't think they used Mozzarella. The pizza tasted even better when I added red pepper flakes and some of the ranch. (I don't care for it but somehow this combination worked for me) The price of this place is a bit much but I can understand why because the overall vibe of this restaurant is "fancy pizza parlor." The pizza definitely tasted fancy and the flavors were unique which was cool for me because I love eating at places where I can experience something I eat often but with a twist. I love the look of the inside, I felt fancy eating here. Forge would definitely be a great spot for a date night. read more

Forge Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

Forge Pizza provided one of the best casual dining experiences we've had in Napa. We stopped in for lunch on a Friday afternoon, and sat outside with our dog. My husband and I decided to split a beet salad and their pepperoni pizza lunch special. The lunch pizzas are the same size as their regular pizzas - less toppings is the only difference. We LOVED the beet salad. It was fresh, tangy and generously sized. Perfect to share as an appetizer or for one person as a main course. Our pizza arrived shortly after - it was also quite yummy! We had the plain pepperoni pizza from the lunch menu. It was perfectly cooked with a delicious, chewy crust that one expects of a Naples-style pizza. The service was quick and friendly. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of parking. Very dog friendly. read more

Wonderful food, great service, and great location right near downtown Napa. The prices could be lower, but that goes for basically everywhere nowadays. Overall, a great local place that's been going through some (in my opinion undeserved) hard times read more

Pizza here is excellent. Please note that I haven't had anything other then the pizza here. There is happy hour all day on Monday (other days are between 3-5pm). Pizza then is only $14 each and it is excellent value. The pizza is cooked Neopolitan style and the texture and taste is excellent. Every time we have been there, the service was excellent. The servers are personable and all of our times there was no complaints. read more

Craving some decent pizza and wanting to get out of the house. Pull out my phone and start browsing through yelp. Hmmm? Forge looks cool? From reading reviews. It was a busy night so service was mediocre, maybe a little too noisy with plenty of patrons and music surrounding the air. What's to order? Cheese curds pls, truffle fries, watermelon salad, 3 cheese pizza with 2 eggs on top. The cheese curds were amazing! I couldn't stop eating them lol something about that batter. Watermelon salad was refreshing, and the pizza was amazing. Our pizza was thin crust, and flavorful. Ricotta, parmesan, and garlic puree w/the 2 eggs over easy made it extra better. I would totally come back. read more

Came by myself and been ignored for 15 min... By two servers... It's not even very busy they just don't care to come over and ask. I was seated outside and there's only one other table. Not busy at all. Just lazy workers. Had to go to the bar myself to order a drink and they still didn't apologize. Waited a bit longer before just calling in my order to go over the phone where they put me on hold again lol. Finally someone came over and I explained I have not been helped for over 20 min and had to order from bar and to go... The reaction is just deer in head the headlights with no apology just awakard silence and walking away?? This is so unprofessional and rude... The food is great, but super unfortunate the staff are young and immature. Update the Bartender is the manager.... Wow and still says nothing Please management don't reply with a copy and paste we're sorry to hear about your bad experience fake apology because no one felt that way in person obviously and no one did anything to make it right. No sorry from any of the staff. read more

I ordered Delivery and was pretty disappointed with the food. All of the food was cold, which already was a little frustrating since I place my order two hours ahead of time. I ordered the margherita and mushroom & sausage pizza. Both were not that great, unfortunately. There was barely any sauce on both of them. I most likely won't order again from here, BUT it might have just been an off day since it was around New Years. I would say to give it a try yourself first before giving the final verdict! read more

Great experience! I had the wedge salad, house margarita, cheese curds and the mushroom pizza! All were delicious and served with a smile! I order margaritas a lot and theirs was one of the best in Napa for sure! Great service and delicious food! I will be back for sure when in Napa! read more

The ratings below are for a pickup order. Let me start off by providing some constructive criticism and then highlight some excellent aspects of Forge. With regards to areas for improvement, service could be improved, I called several time on the phone to order, each time I was asked to hold briefly, and then ended up being on hold for more than 10 minutes (not an exaggeration) and even once I was able to speak with the hostess, I did not have the most pleasant experience. With regards to the food, we got Mediterranean and three cheese pizza, both were nepolitan and tasted well overall with good sauce and crust. Lastly, to highlight the best aspect of Forge, the ambience and location are great. Forge is located in South Napa in a complex with multiple other restaurants nearby and a movie theater in close proximity. And, inside, the restaurant has a great, modern feel! read more

First time here with the boo after stopping by CREAM next door. We were greeted right away and got sat within a couple minutes. The inside reminded me of a yard house or a BJs restaurant but I did like how they had an outdoor patio with games. They have plenty of seating and tables for big parties which was nice. We ordered the Brussel sprouts starter which I thought tasted great but the pizza in my opinion is super overrated. We were greeted by our server five minutes after sitting down which wasn't bad. We ordered the Mediterranean pizza with an egg for $21 and was nothing special to basic pizza places we've been to. Our food took over 25 minutes to come out and the restaurant was less than half full. One side of the pizza was burnt and there were some toppings you couldn't even taste. The service was less than acceptable. Our server dropped off our food and didn't check on us once or bother to refill our drinks. We had to find her and leave our table to ask for boxes and the check. On a positive note, parking wasn't an issue plus it's right next to the a movie theatre and other restaurants. Overall would I recommend this restaurant? Ehhh probably for a drink at the bar, but not for the food. #roadtoelite read more

Napa surprisingly doesn't have great pizza. Forge, Live Fire, and now Scala's are probably the best options in the city. Scala's is a little pricey and is a more upscale restaurant. Live fire is more of a stall at oxbow than a real restaurant. Forge fills the gap in a city that does not have a lot of nice casual options. (Things are often fast food or leaning more upscale, with little between). The bar is a very easygoing environment. Prices are fair, and the happy hour is pretty good. They only have one tv at the bar and the bartenders usually have to be told what game should be on. I do like this pizza a lot. The crust is light and easy to digest and the toppings are decent quality. $15 for a margherita and a beer at happy hour! read more

Forge is a solid choice for locals in Napa. There is a relaxed and friendly vibe. Forge offers food and drink specials at Happy Hour, and we enjoy their pizzas and salads anytime. Our server tonight was AJ Ramos. AJ did a stellar job, checking back on drink refills and providing extra attentive service with a great attitude. We will definitely be back! read more

Love this place. Easy and quick. The beer selection is nice and the pizza is good. Pretty straight forward.

Sat at bar. Ignored for 30-40minutes by moody bar staff. Forced to leave because they would not take our order. Bad experience tonight. Disappointed. This place has great pizza and usually a good experience. read more

Forge is a solid addition to the pizza scene in Napa. Their pies are good, and fall into similar terrain as those you would find at Live Fire, Ca Momi, or Velo. Good char on thin crust pies, with quality ingredients in terms of toppings. And unlike other places *cough Ca Momi cough* they will cut your pizza AND let you have red pepper flakes. Score. Right now, they are in my top 5 pizza spots in Napa, and that's a pretty exclusive list. Additionally, they have a great little area out back for cornhole games, excellent appetizers (get the cheese curds), and a nice little bar. Show up during happy hour and get yourself a PBJ (Pizza / Beer / Shot of Jameson) for $15 -- can't go wrong with that. It's noisy, but overall I'm a fan. read more

Dear Forge, you have no place on your website for feedback and your "thank you" email didn't ask for feedback or have a place to respond. So since you don't ask for feedback I don't know what else to do but yelp you. You have solid food- I've been numerous times and enjoyed. But I recently ordered take out for lunch. Love your chicken tenders, order- pick up all good. Back to the office starving- to find my food packed in plastic container. Chicken tenders- usually so crispy - are now limp, sweaty globs of chicken with the batter falling off. So disappointing. If you don't know how to pack take- out- don't do take out. read more
