Great pizza. We tried the chicken wings which were crispy and Smokey. The hot honey onion pizza is great but very hot.

Hands down best crab roll I've ever had, only complaint is I wish it was a little bit bigger but understandable since it's only $20. I say make the sandwich bigger and charge $30 for it. But honestly I'll probably just order two next time, it was so insanely good. The mushroom pizza was easily one of the best pizzas my husband and I have ever had. So flavorful and cooked just perfectly. Unfortunately the squash one I didn't care for much. Tasted way too smokey. We will definitely be back for the crab roll and mushroom pizza!! read more

What just happened... how did we spend $70+ for a "meal" that left all of us starving? One appetizer was (truly delicious! but) essentially one brussel sprout, a small piece of shaved leek, and an egg for $16. Between the three of us, that was approximately one bite each. $15 for a tiny plate of potatoes and cheese, and the oysters were $3 each. I'm happy to throw down that kind of dough for a filling meal, but we all left the table still very hungry. It was disappointing and frustrating. The menu should be much more clear that the "plates" are only tastes. I've been here at least 3 times in the past years... and have never felt so cheated. I would have certainly given Hogstone 5 stars in the past, and have recommended it to friends visiting the island. Has something changed?? Everything was good and the pizza was good, I'm just feeling very bitter and like a sucker. read more

What a lovely, intimate restaurant! I visited this restaurant after a recommendation from a friend and it definitely lived up the rave reviews! It was a cold, rainy evening and I was looking for something to warm me up and wood-fired pizza seemed like a great option! As soon as I walked in, the cozy, warm, and inviting ambiance drew me in even more! The service was spectacular and extremely attentive. I decided to start my meal with their house oysters and they did not disappoint! They were topped with this mignonette and I could have eaten a dozen on my own! For my main course, I settled on the cow cheese, goat cheese, and herbs pizza. Each pizza is 12 in, thin-crust, beautifully crafted, and topped with fresh ingredients! From start to finish, I was impressed. Next time I'm in orcas, I will definitely be back! Give this place a try and you won't be disappointed! read more

While the pizza is right on, it's the side dishes and wine pairing that may be the unheralded stars. Unique and full of flavor. Great service. Don'T let the casual and friendly environment fool you into discounting the serious and focused approach to offering great food. read more

Easily the best pizza in the San Juans (yes I've tried them all and yes I'm a pizza lover). Reasonable price considering the ingredients are top notch. Whenever they have ice cream, make sure you get some too! read more

Never had pizzas so rich in taste. We ordered 2 different pizzas and both were amazing. We literally ate alternate slices so that we could enjoy the taste more. I am a fan of thin crust and this was the lightest pizza I ever had. Great ambiance and great service. Dessert was a delight too. Highly recommended. I see myself driving to Orcas from Seattle just for this place in future. read more

Great pizza- we had the mushroom pizza. It was superb. Great service- I appreciate how well the restaurant communicated pick up times and protocols to keep everyone safe This place loses a star because of the Brussels sprouts. We ordered them tonight. For $15 we got 10, undercooked sprouts. I would recommend against ordering them. read more

A truly perfect pizza and, thanks to no indoor seating, a truly perfect view a couple blocks away in the park overlooking the water. My fiancé and I are super carnivorous people, but the two pizzas we enjoyed were vegetarian and we couldn't have been happier. This place is a MUST GO if your visiting, and if you love there... count yourself lucky! read more

Hogstone's delivers everything I love and miss about eating out. I picked up my food to-go and walked it back to our hotel. As soon as we started eating the wave of happiness set in with all the flavor sensations. Fingerling potatoes with the cheese dip of your dreams, radicchio salad, and mushroom pizza. We opened a bottle of red we saved for a special occasion. Indeed! read more

Stopped by here for a quick dinner a few days ago. You order at the counter and they'll deliver your pizza to your table. You can see them making it at the back of the kitchen in a brick oven. They only have a few different pizza, slightly spendy for the one size they offer (about dinner plate size). We ordered 2 pizzas - I think the dough was good and the toppings are fresh and tasty. I knocked off one star for inconsistency though. One pizza was definitely undercooked while the other was perfectly cooked. I think it's a good choice if you're in the mood for pizza at Orcas. read more

Oh where to begin with this restaurant that is a tad pretentious. "Wood Oven" is featured prominently in the name of the place, the sign out front, the web site and the stamp on the pizza boxes. Yet when we showed up the oven was spewing a gas flame. I asked where the wood burning oven was and got the response that they hope to have one at the restaurant soon. What?! They do have one at their farm but since I was eating at their restaurant and not their farm that didn't do me much good. One would think that a restaurant that touts their wood oven would maybe have one. I was further taken aback when I was charged a $2 take out fee for my two pizzas. Take out fee? Was that to cover the cost of the two cardboard boxes? When people dining in take some food home are they charged a doggie bag fee for that? They should be thrilled that we were taking food out and not dining in. We didn't clog up the line that was forming, we didn't take up space at any of their tables, we didn't need any waitstaff service, we didn't drink any water which they'd have to provide and clean up our glasses later along with any cutlery we may have used. Okay enough complaining, how was the pizza? It was better than average, particularly for this area. The toppings were flavorful and it wasn't over cheesed. The dough was a decent mix of chewy and crispy but could have used more crispy bite (which the heat of a wood burning oven would have provided.) Overall though I felt ripped off. Some people have complained about the price of the pizza. Since we were able to split one and save another for later I didn't think the price was out of line, particularly for the quality of ingredient and remote location. The $2 charge for takeout was annoying but I really have a problem with a restaurant that bills their wood oven when it's not. There's a huge difference between a gas oven and a wood-fired one. read more

Very disappointed in service Made res for 5 pm ( we were tight on time) Showed up at 5 and staff was hanging out chatting at Bar as more and more people showed up to be seated. After 5 min of waiting with not a look from staff, we left. Again about 2 weeks later planned to come over to orcas for dinner Called and left a message we would like a 5:15 res on Friday eve Asked for someone to call us back to confirm. Called again on our way to say we were running a few min behind, no answer When we showed up the place was CLOSED!!! There was another couple that experienced the same thing here Forget this place , plus the only serve pizza out side so with rain coming , the place is off our list BTW they never called us back to apologize Guess they are more concerned with taking time off or BSing with each other than customer service read more

If I was reviewing just the pizza, this place is 5+ stars for sure! I tried 3 of their specialty pizzas and they were all amazing. My favorite by far was the pork, pickled chard, and onions pizza. The ingredients were so fresh and the crust is unbelievable!! So thin and crispy in the middle and then smokey and chewy around the edges. You can roll me in their pizza dough and I'll die happy. Such quality pizzas and they really are worth ~$15-20 each. I would trust any of their specialty pizzas. Really though, stick to the pizzas here. I was really unimpressed with the appetizer plate that I tried. It was two chunks of dungeness crab on top of a piece of kelp with a smear of sauce for $16. Tasty, but gone in two bites. I had a terrible experience with the service. I saw an empty table on my way in and was hoping to be seated there. The hostess told my boyfriend and I that there were no tables, so we ended up getting a pizza to go. A couple walked in two minutes after us and she seated them easily at the table we saw outside. It was frustrating to hear that, but we let it go and waited 30 minutes for our one to-go pizza. We came back again the next day and saw two empty tables outside. She told us that there were no available tables again. We let her know that we saw the empty tables before she wanted to seat us inside. I just wanted the entire experience of sipping a glass of wine on a picnic table with the perfect pizza next to the pile of chopped wood... is that too much to ask for?? Anyways, our actual server was exceptionally sweet and very accommodating. I'll definitely be back when I'm on Orcas again! read more

Hogstone wood oven.... I envisioned pizza and beer... what we got was so much more. This place is a gem. Grilled spring greens and lamb. Pizza with fresh cow cheese ... dessert was simple: the best ice cream I've ever had with drizzle of reduction. I can't even think properly trying to describe this meal.... my brain shuts down and my mouth salivates. The decor is simple. They pride themselves in their local in season ingredients. Very friendly service. I have not one complaint or suggestion to improve the experience of dining here. I will be coming back here when I'm on the island again. read more

Just get the pizza! Don't bother with the other menu! The other plates are really expensive for a small amount food. I paid 60 dollars for two crab sliders and a few pieces of fried chicken. read more

Great place for real good wood fired pizza. This place made my wife and I real happy. Just come knowing that they will serve you whatever they have in the garden at the time. Or whatever is locally available. I love that. If you want to taste authentic napolatina pizza, this is it. If you want to taste Orcas Island, this is it. Try the oysters, try the wine, love the time with your spouse or friends. And, order dessert...rock your world! Five stars would be a non-labor day weekend "game on" evening. Otherwise, spot on! read more

I get it. James Beard chef, kitschy and fun pork menu, great seating, spectacular wine list... Our experience was a bit different. Only three tables had any shade so be prepared to be cooked if the sun is out since heaven forbid they put an umbrella out. Menu: small plates section had two salads, oysters, and a cheese dip that they serve with wooden spoons but nothing to dip in it. And then pizzas, of which only one had any pork on it. We compensated by splurging on wines but left hungry. I would love to say this was an anomaly but same experience last year... read more

This a small place (more seating outside in good weather) with some very original wood-fired pizzas and a few small plates. There were 5 pizzas on the menu for our visit ranging from $15-25 (12"). Ours had smoked tomato and cured egg amongst its ingredients. The salad and local oysters we had to start were the freshest we've ever had. Service was good, though we did receive the wrong pizza to start, which was corrected. They are only open 3-4 days a week this time of year so check and make reservations. We will definitely go back next visit. read more

I cannot find appropriate words to describe how much I enjoyed our dinner here at Hogstone. We had fantastic wine, an INSANELY DELICIOUS chicken shareable plate, two pizzas which were beyond scrumptious... and the desert, which was one of the most delicious treats I've ever had. The service was FANTASTIC. We've eaten at Canlis And the Herbfarm, among other Seattle-foodie spots, and HANDS DOWN I would come here first if I had to pick. Friendly, welcoming, delicious. It was a memorable and wonderful meal. Thank you Hogstone! read more

The BEST pizza sauce I've ever had. You can tell from the moment you walk in that this place is special. Must stop for anyone in Orcas.

Ok, not too much I can add to the existing commentary, but I will try and add context to the frequent comments of "small servings/expensive price" Example 1: Carrots. $9 for 3 small carrots sliced in half and topped with mini serving of smoked egg white. Maybe skip the smoking egg white and trim cost. It didn't add much. Oh, and did I mention the carrots were not cooked. Served crunchy raw. So hey you saved staff time not cooking. Example 2: blistered potatoes with cheese sauce. $12. 4 small melon ball size potatoes and a bit of melted cheese Example 3: Oysters on half shell. $3. About average In fairness thought, the flat bread pizza was average size for the price. So if i return, will order a couple of those. read more

It is really has nice food for a place like Orcas Island. Presentation was good, server was very friendly like he spent his time explaining us about the food we ordered. So if you want quality over quantity then this is the place as its unique in its own way, probably the Chef they have is a creative one :) read more

Honestly? One of the few places we visited on Orcas that understood layers of flavor! Finishing salt on the greens??? YES THANK YOU FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. Sure it's not "ideal" with COVID restrictions (having to call ahead, wait...), but what is? Wait for good food. It's fine. You have nothing else to do, you're on an island. Pizza was excellent, not swimming in layers of cheese and fat; only unadulterated, pure integrity of ingredients. Perfection. Just wish we'd found this earlier. read more

We came into this restaurant thinking that it would be great tasting and gourmet. But we found out that this had bad service. We were made to wait for 10 mins even though we had a reservation. The pizza itself was overcooked, the crust burnt in places and the kale charred black. It was extremely salty as well :( We told the waitress that the pizza wasn't good, but she didn't respond. She never asked us for water, but chose to stay behind chatting with the rest of the staff. I had to go to the counter to ask her to take our money and let us get out. In summary, this was the worst pizza place we have been to in a long time. East sound has superb restaurants around this place - this one isn't one of them. read more

Was really looking forward to some great pizza and beer in town. I'm not too picky of a guy, but pizza and beer shouldn't be too tall of an order. We arrived early because when we went by the first day it was packed. We were the second group in the door and asked if we had a reservation. I was kind of surprised that a small pizza place takes reservations... No mention of that on the phone recording when we called earlier. No big deal, sat at the bar. Service was slow despite being fully staffed and not having more than us and one other two person party. Here's the short: One star for getting us decent pizza (don't be snarky here, we both know kale isn't an herb) and one star for having beer. I won't dock you for a pint being $6.5 or $7. I guess it's going to be more expensive at the fancy place in town instead of the normal pizza place. Bottom line - Next time I'll pass and go to the pub or the other pizza place. read more

Outstanding local food imaginatively prepared. All the raves are well-deserved. One warning: they don't serve coffee.

Simply put, one of the finest restaurants in America. Unpretentious, but relentlessly focused on local sourcing and food as memory-making and storytelling. The greatest ! read more

This restaurant was a major disappointment. There was no menu on the website which should have been the first red flag. We made reservations and when we arrived we were told we had to sit at a picnic table outside as they were not providing seating inside. So, we ordered fresh oysters which were in a beautiful dill oil and amazing. We selected a nice bottle of red. The dinner menu was simply cheese pIzza....over priced cheese pizza! No protein at all! It was a little misleading to eat cheese pizza at a restaurant called Hogstone. Will not be back again. read more

The pizza easily deserves five stars. The tomatoes were excellent, the cheese, the crust, everything. Good wine selection. Have to say that the apps or anything that was a non-pizza item were solid, (the lamb tartare was the best!) but tiny if you're looking to share and try different things with a few people with a few people. They are definitely not a family style thing in that regard. If you grow kale yourself, I think you know that you could throw another handful or so onto a plate without a second thought. They should do that too. The fact that it's outdoors is awesome in the sense that you get to enjoy the surroundings and let the kids run around. I'm pretty sure that the waiter with screamesque face, weirdly dressy shoes and the snazzy striped shorts wouldn't agree though: he was very overly concerned about the possibility of one of them breaking one of the glass lanterns hanging around the paths. I have an idea for him to ease his woes: move them! (They don't light anything up in the day time anyhow.) read more

Just keep walking, biking, or driving past this place. It sounds enticing, looks inviting, your fiends might insist on it, but use your better judgement, don't fall into the the trap. It's enticing, but infuriating. There's an annoyingly obvious localism in practice and it is a complete rip-off. If you are visiting the island move on to consider a different place to eat, there are plenty of them, this place will hands down ruin your night. Leave it to the locals to doubtfully keep this place afloat. Not only are the servers completely inept, the food is below mediocre and priced as if it were golden nuggets. We were at our table for about 15 minutes on an uncrowded night before we were even approached. Had a pizza and a Dungeness crab "plate", note that the "plate" is about a tablespoon of food, about as outlandishly priced and presented as it gets. I've never seen something with a trace of the main ingredient cost so much and taste so mediocre. Consider it had about a $1 of ingredients and cost $20. That is about a 1500% markup if you consider the "artistry." The pizza was good, but overpriced, nothing special. Not sure exactly what is going on here, maybe if you live here, there is different menu, attitude and experience. If you are visiting, choose somewhere else to spend your money. You can't go wrong skipping this place. read more

We really enjoyed the food, the staff, and the ambiance. Loved dining outdoors, and the fire pit once the sunset. The food was also really good - both the small plates and the pizza all were great. I would highly recommend this place. Fun, casual, but really good food. read more

The food here is perfection. I had such a wonderful experience that I returned two weeks later via the inter island ferry. I ordered three apps on the first visit: Prawns with cilantro and hazelnuts, grilled on one side. They were unbelievable. So fresh and the flavors were so delicate. The gem lettuces with toasted hazelnuts and rye and tarragon dressing are handheld, delicious little bites of crunchy delight. The clams and green garlic with pea shoots were also remarkable. So much flavor and the creamy sauce was bold and Smokey without overpowering. The pizza with nettles, goat cheese and garlic oil was divine. The crust is so yummy. You can taste the wood oven and the love! Second visit was equally amazing. Tried margarita pizza and loved it. The caramelized onion toast was great but not amazing. Ordered the clams and garlic again - twice because we liked it so much. This place is a gem. Love the outdoor casual setting. Service is nice but both times it began attentively and finished a bit slow. Desserts took a while during both visits. Maybe cause the kitchen is so small? Wine pours are a little on the skimpy side but the food and atmosphere make up for any faults I found with the place. Eat here now! read more

If you are ever on Orcas Island you have to dine at Hogstone's. Down to earth staff who make amazing food.

They pizza here is delicious highly recommend! We had the Alliums, Mushrooms & Fresh Cow Cheese! We had oysters too, they were also good.

I paid $14 for a single, golf-ball-sized potato. Granted, it was an heirloom variety of wax potato. It was grown in island soil. It was undeniably lovingly cooked in hay and was accompanied by a small dollop of island-made chevre. But it was still a potato. ONE potato. And it tasted identical to any other potato. Farm-to-table cooking can unfortunately fall victim to a strong undercurrent of absurdity. Food grown or cooked in a meticulous way should have some representative flavor reflecting that effort besides the price, and just because you can cook potatoes in hay does not mean you necessarily should. read more

We literally stumbled upon this place 4th of July night and it was such a memorable meal. I am originally from San Francisco and now live in Seattle and have had my share of amazing pizza and I think this pizza in the middle of Orcas Island was excellent. The big leafy salad with shallot dressing was fresh and delicious. The pizza to get is hands down the smoked mozzarella .. I've never had a pizza with this unique flavor before. The crust was chewy and a slightly burnt ..just how I like my thin crust pizza. The wait was a bit long but hey we are on island time aren't we? enjoy a beverage and watch the amazing clouds pass by as you sit by the fire pit and relax. I can't wait to come back.. The smoked mozzarella is calling my name. My husband even joked that we could officially live the island life knowing that we could eat a smoked mozzarella pizza every week. read more
