With all the places to choose from, we were feeling devilish and went to No Saint. This was a first for two of in our party and we were so glad we tried a new spot. From start to finish, it was fantastic. We started with a variety of drinks, all tasty and delicious. The wine selection was fairly priced and we ended up choosing a nice bottle to compliment our meal. For a party of 4, I think we may have ordered a bit too much, but that isn't unusual for foodies who like to try a variety of dishes. Isn't that what "to go" boxes are for? Let's get started: 1. Fresh baked bread = YES. Even though you are going to order pizza, GET THE BREAD! 2. Insalata di Pulpo - thinly sliced octopus, fennel, pine nuts, mint and chili relish, an absolute must. Two of us got to eat this based either being vegetarian or food tastes, MORE FOR US! It was so delicious and shouldn't be missed if you like PULPO. 3. Wood-roated pear under Giardini section - anjou pear, greens, brown butter and hazelnuts. Is it considered a salad? Not sure, but consider it something you should order. 4. Wood-fired puple sprouting brocolli - this was our least favorite but still good. Lots of pecorino cheese, lemon, and breadcrumbs. 5. Raab & Ricotta cannelloni - filled with brocolli and kale raab, with walnuts and a mint salsa, topped with parmiggiano and lemon. This is memorable and simply delicious. The pairing of flavors complimented each bite. 6. Rigatoncini a la vodka - this was the show stopper dish in my opinion. A perfectly spiced calabrian chili vodka sauce with burrata and breadcrums engulfing every devine piece of pasta. Amazing and an absolute dish you should order. 7. Pizza: Quattro Cipalle - onions upon onions but not too many onions, all nestled in a wood fired pizza dough that is out of this world. You can't go wrong with any pizzas you order, it's their claim to fame. By the time we are talking about dessert, I'm ready to pass out. I'm full, happy, and enjoying great company in an atmosphere that is simply perfect. But we order Tiramisu, which the table found delightful, and espresso martinis, as well as an Amaro flight of which I will call "digestives." The service was fantastic. With that said, 20% gratuity is added to all checks, so if you would like to give more, please do. This neighborhood is a pocket of delights in the culinary world, as the day before we ate next door at Hat Yai... review coming their way. Thank you to all at No Saints, the experience was Heavenly. read more

No Saint is my favorite new place to get an inventive and refreshing salad. They had three wonderful sounding salads to choose from on their dinner menu and I opted for their chicory salad which had kohlrabi, apples, almonds, caramelized garlic, chervil, and a saba vinegaette. The salad was just a lil' sweet and savory tasting and the caramelized garlic added a lot of flavor which paired very well with the other ingredients. We also ordered the Hokkaido scallop crudo which was a perfect appetizer. The dish came with a lot a sunchoke chips piled on top which didn't leave much of a positive visual impression but the dish was good nonetheless. Of course we had to get a pizza so we chose to go with the cavalo nero & sausage white pie. The menu listed three cheeses on this pie with pomodoraccio (semi-sun-dried tomatoes), house sausage, bottarga (cured fish roe pouch) with an orange-pressed olive oil. When the pie came out we weren't sure if it was what we ordered because it was covered with charred kalettes which weren't listed as an ingredient. The pizza was good but i do think the charred kale kinda distracted from the other ingredients of the pie. Everything else was fairly mild though hints of orange did make it to our tastebuds. Overall a good experience which will have me coming back to try the other items on their menu, which looks like it changes often. read more

Came here for dinner and was seriously impressed. The portions are large and clearly meant to be shared, which worked great for our table. Food: Rigatoncini al Vodka (4.5/5): Fresh and not too heavy. The spice level was just right, very saucy, and the breadcrumbs added a nice crunch and texture. Three-Layer Lasagna (5/5): Looks flatter than traditional lasagna, but wow, this was amazing. Very creamy and rich, with crunchy breadcrumbs on top that added great contrast. Different from what I expected and absolutely delicious. Leek and Hazelnut Pizza (4.5/5): Thin crust, garlicky, and nicely wood-fired. It had a good mix of savory with just a hint of sweetness. It also felt lighter than most pizzas, but still very satisfying. Pear, Walnut, and Caramel Gelato (5/5): The portion was huge. Perfect balance of flavors, refreshing, smooth, with a little crunch from the walnuts. My wife loves gelato and I am usually just okay with it, but this one was outstanding. I do not normally enjoy pasta much, but every pasta dish here really impressed me. Service: Friendly and attentive. Just a heads up that a 20 percent service fee is added to every bill, not just large parties. Ambiance: Small and pretty crowded, but still enough space to move around without feeling uncomfortable. Lively and energetic, especially during dinner hours. Overall, fantastic food, great for sharing, and a place I would happily return to. read more

No Saint is right. $15 for a puny sandwich, maybe 2.5" X 7", then add a $3 to put the sandwich in a box? Gads! The sandwich had some good qualities, but those were almost obliterated by overuse of the ol' salt shaker. Recognizing that prices have gone way up, no!, prices have gone wayyyyy up, any way you twist and turn this a net $18 is ... hmmm ... silly? Naw, how about usurious? The place is cute enough, but we won't repeat. read more

No Saint - The quarter is placed for perspective. - Pizza Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I've passed by No Saint a couple times whenever i'm grabbing a cone over at Nico's so when I was craving some Italian I decided to check this one off my bookmarked list. Each time i've passed by it always looks busy so I was lucky to grab a spot outside at their communal table as I just walked in. I was outside the whole time so I can't speak to the ambiance inside but i'm keen to comeback another time to try their pizzas. I made this stop primarily for their baked vokda rigantoni after seeing all the photos on Yelp. I love me a vodka sauce and became obsessed after trying it at Carbones. The portion size is definitely one to share but the plate they bring it out isn't as deep as it looks. Be sure to mix it well so you get a mix of the burrata in each bite! Overall the pasta was cooked well but I would like it a little saucier. It did pair well with the bread to soak up any remaining sauce but I would probably skip it next time. When I sat down they asked if I wanted bread which I thought was complimentary but then saw it was $5 on the bill. Lesson learned next time to confirm but the bread wasn't anything special. No Saint has a higher price point so definitely more of a special occasion spot since the pasta will run you $30+ usually with the built in 20% tip. read more

Have been here twice, and really enjoyed it both times. Kind of a cozy place with the kitchen in the middle, complete with someone stretching dough. The food options are creative and tasty. The beet salad was soooo good, and the pizza was really unique. Lot of less common toppings and combinations, which is a big part of the fun for me. I like new flavors and twists on conventional ideas. It's not cheap, but it's for sure unique. Service was friendly. Good date night spot. read more

Honestly, I have no complaints. I'm hungry just thinking how soft and tasty the bread was. It's a cute little spot but still feels like a special occasion type of dinner. The pizza was tasty and the folks working were nice. I would definitely try their other pizzas. read more

The standouts of No Saint were the service, grilled kalettes, and the tiramisu. The palloncino bread came out burnt, so we had to discard nearly a quarter of it. The ladysmith cheese and balsamic were just 2 sad small triangles unmelted. The pistachi pizza came out overdone and I had to discard most of the blackened crust. I was expecting more saltiness, more flavor but it was a little lacking. Rigatoncini a la vodka was decent. The breadcrumbs were burnt at the top. I would have liked more sauce as well. When we arrived around 6 on a thursday, there was a 30 min wait so we shared an ice cream at Nico's nearby. There's nearby residential street parking. read more

Loveee No Saint!! It reminds me of Tartuca and Lovely's Fifty Fifty. With frequent menu changes with seasonal ingredients, No Saint is a charming Italian eatery with wood-fired dishes. They have an impressive wine list, perfect for all your pizza pairings. We got the grilled corn & jimmy nardello's peppers pizza, tomato & stonfruit salad, and burrata & berries. Everything was great! I love their incorporation of seasonal fruits and vegetables - it was like a taste of summer. For dessert, we got the tiramisu and it was lovely. Not too sweet or alcohol heavy - it was the perfect sweetness with sweet mascarpone and hints of cocoa and coffee. No Saint has a concise menu, and they do it well. You will not be disappointed! Offering reservations through Resy, this is your sign to come for a great meal! read more

Had an awesome visit last week for a Friday date night. The place does take reservations and I would encourage them as it does fill up quickly and is not that large of a space. The atmosphere was quaint and lovely. It's a bit of a U shaped dining room with the kitchen being in the center of the space. I liked the setup and the lighting and decor was nice. It was rather loud however, given the proximity of the tables, so keep that in mind if you're looking for something a little more intimate. I assumed the vibe would be more upscale given the prices but it was a mix of dress from casual to date night. Service was solid throughout the night. Servers were kind and attentive. I will say the pizzas being made fresh mean they do take some time so make sure to order that early if you plan on getting one. There's also a takeout option which appeared popular. Lastly, the food, which was quite delicious. We wound up going for the roast carrots, vodka penne, pistachio pizza, and tiramisu for dessert. The penne was tasty and rich without actually being that heavy. It had smooth tomato flavors and was light enough even with the buratta to have room for pizza. The pizza was outstanding and was both unique while still being familiar. It had a warm nutty taste and tasty cheese all around. Crust was also great. The true standout may have been the tiramisu which I would definitely encourage if you have the appetite. As a non coffee drinker it's not usually a dish I order but it was absolutely fantastic. Super creamy and fresh, and so decadent we actually wound up taking some home. Definitely a place I'd try again for specialty pizza and dessert. read more

This used to be the go to place for amazing and complex supremo pizza and/or a special (tho spendy) meal. They no longer do the supremo and I figured I try another version of red sauce pizza with pepperoni to discover the quality has gone way down. It's mediocre to poor for the price. Super disappointed so much so I won't even go back for any kind of meal there. read more

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. First off, when I walked in I was greeted immediately. The spot is so quaint, beautiful, all open concept so you can watch the kitchen move around you. The music was great, vibes were fantastic and the food was insane. Eveything was absolutely delicious & had so much flavor. I'm pretty sure the best tiramisu in Portland is at No Saint. WOW. We had tons of stuff, we had a bottle of wine, followed by two pizzas, a salad and two sides, and it was all to die for. Everything was beautifully done & had so much flavor. The pizza was perfect, we ate a good amount and didn't feel bloated or too full it was perfect. Real ingredients. I am waiting for the day to come back. I forgot how great NE Portland is. Auch a great spot in a cute neighborhood. Also Frankie is a doll who took the best care of us! Thanks for having me! read more

An awesome spot for pizza, cozy and welcoming! Laid-back but romantic vibe with great service + a front patio that's perfect for nice days. Their pizzas are so delicious. The crust is light, a little crispy, New York-style. The owners, Gabriella Casabianca and Anthony Siccardi, are super friendly. Unforgettable tiramisu! Great wine list. One of the best pizza spots in Portland, no question. read more

Our group of eight left feeling pretty let down by how the pricing was handled. Because of our party size, we had to do a prix fixe menu that came out to 5 pizzas, 3 appetizers, and 4 huge tiramisu plates. Two of the appetizers were fantastic and one was good, the pizzas were just okay, and we didn't even touch one of the plain cheese pies (they gave us two for some reason). We also would have loved the option of actual entrees or some sort of protein, but none were offered. We brought two bottles of wine (one a magnum) and were charged a triple corkage fee ($105), plus an automatic 20% gratuity. When we added it up later, ordering the same items from the regular menu (including corkage and tip) came to about $420, but our total was around $800. When friends emailed to ask about the difference, the owner said the extra cost was for "operational purposes" for a party of eight. Overall, parts of the meal were very good, but the value felt off, so if you're booking a larger group, I'd make sure to get very clear on how the prix fixe is structured and what it will actually cost. read more

Great open kitchen space with moody lights and warm wooden furnitures. Their menu focuses on pizzas and some sides. We started with the Escarole & Pistachio Butter which was my favorite dish of the night! Fresh veggies covered in toasty and lemony dressing topped with nutty pistachios. The Summer Melon & Duck Proscuitto ended up pairing very well with this dish with its sweetness. Wished they'd have been more generous with the proscuitto though. For pie, we went with the Peach & Sausage. Great base and crust, crispy and chewy at the same time. This was a huge pie with plenty of gourmet toppings so at $32 we didn't feel too ripped off but I would say the flavors weren't quite there for me. I enjoyed the individual components but they didn't come together. The peach slices weren't ripe enough, maybe a peach jam or grilled peach would have worked better. The sausage was nice and juicy and the pie was plenty creamy and cheesey for a white pie Service was decent but we felt neglected at times. All in all, not a bad romantic spot but food wasn't the best we've had. read more

After a less than ideal experience at another restaurant down the way, the seven of us found ourselves at No Saint - appropriately named for us sinners. We were immediately seated outside where we enjoyed several appetizers, three pizzas, drinks, and of course, dessert. The pizzas were huge and incredibly tasty. We all left with plenty of leftovers. The menu appears to rotate occasionally, which is fun. We had a pepperoni supreme pizza with hot honey, and another with summer squash. The roasted nectarine cannolis were good; the tiramisu was better. If you're looking for a great neighborhood Italian spot with great vibes, stop at No Saint. You won't regret it. read more

We ordered the vodka pasta and it was just okay. The burrata cheese on top of the pasta was basically a mozzarella cheese ball. Did not like the service at all. Our server was not knowledgeable about the menu and could not answer basic questions about the wines they offered. When we ordered dessert for to-go, we asked if they could include takeout silverware and she said did not have any? Why do you offer takeout and not have any silverware? They also have a mandatory surcharge of 20% which is ridiculous considering how bad the service is. read more

YUM! The pizza here is seriously legit, and in a pizza town like Portland, that takes skill! I'm generally a thin crust person, but the dough was so pillowy and delicious. I was sold instantly. The flavor is exceptional. They have a brilliant way of blending their ingredients to create a perfectly balanced, smoky, and delicious pizza. I also have to shout out the side: their apple and kohlrabi salad was surprisingly creative and good. Definitely come here if you're looking for an exceptional slice. I'm a huge fan! read more

Ten stars, seriously!! We had been eying this place for a while and finally found a reason to get up to Portland. Our expectations were already high and they hit it out of the park. We had to try the baked pasta. Vodka sauce was extraordinary. Pizza was perfectly cooked. Even our bowl of olives apparently to a trip through the oven. We interacted with several people there and they were so nice and helpful. Can't wait to go back! Note, they just started taking reservations. read more

I think it's telling if I feel like I could live off of the bread, salad, and pasta at a place for days or weeks on end and wooow No Saint definitely deserves that praise. I made reservations with a couple friends a few weeks ago for a birthday and was so glad we chose this spot! I had their seasonal spritz which was great and my friends had the lemon soda and N/A IPA which they all enjoyed as well. Apps wise we went for the bread with whipped ricotta -- came out piping hot with the perfect pinch of salt on top and the whipped ricotta was HEAVENLY. Would absolutely order again. Then we had the kale salad which was deeeelish; bright and tart with a good amount of nuance and nuttiness. Next was hands down my favorite dish -- the stuffed rigatoni. I'd pay someone to give me a whole vat of that to eat in a corner and be totally content. The pasta was al dente with a good amt of cheese and the pesto and pine nuts on top were exemplary. Absolutely get this this if you go! We also tried the squash..which was good but not memorable or really our fave. Would opt to try the carrots next time instead. Pizza wise we had the potato pizza minus the meat and the rosso pizza which is vegan! (no cheese on there but lots of delicious tomato flavor). Pizzas were both great and even the crust was so so good. Would get all of the above again minus the squash, sorry squash! We did end on a sweet note with tiramisu though I'd be game to try the panna cotta or the rotating cakes! Service was really sweet and I loved how warm and cozy the interior felt. Street parking in the area isn't too bad and you can likely find a near enough spot! Totally check this place out if you're in the area, worth your time, money, and food tastes~ read more

Very good pizza but not good enough to offset the cons of this spot. I should have listened to the reviews regarding service. It wasn't terrible and no one was rude to us but we felt a little neglected. I had reserved a table for my girlfriend's birthday and they placed us in the very back corner of the restaurant by the stacks of firewood where it was dark and servers were zipping past us all night long. The alpine spritz I ordered was truly noxious. And like I said, the pizza was good, but extremely pricey. For that much money I would have liked a better ambiance. It felt like a cafeteria inside, loud, uncomfortable chairs, much more casual than their website suggests. read more

Probably my favorite pizza in PDX. Love the atmosphere and wine list here too, highlighting favorite local vineyards and wine makers, met with a very modest and modern feel inside that is welcoming and fresh. It's a 'humble brag' sort of place: a neighbor place that is both upscale and cozy at the same time. I've been a few times and tried more than the pizza, but that pizza is really that reason I'm drooling. read more

I would give a solid 3.5 stars. The staff was polite and set us up outside for drinks while we waited for a table. Unfortunately they were out of the calamari, so we ordered a beet salad which was a generous portion. The NY pie had a great chewy crust, although I agree with some other reviews saying it could have used a little more flavor. It also made for great leftovers the next morning! On a side note, our server was super friendly and chatty as we ended up staying past closing time. read more

Pretty good! There were 5+ star dishes mixed with some so-so ones. The pasta al forno was rated one of the best meals in Portland in 2023 and this met expectations. Creamy sauce, al dente pasta, crispy oven char and salty breadcrumbs. 10/10 and would eat this again and again. The spicy chicory Caesar was also a creative take on classic Caesar with the addition of chili oil in the dressing which complimented the bitter chicory leaves. Best salad by far. The other four dishes including dessert weren't particularly memorable, but we still ate it. Service is nice here, very attentive. The inside is cute, cozy, and very homey. Would visit again for select dishes. read more

A nice spot if you're in the mood for some fancier style wood fired pizza in a nice setting. The ambience is kind of a clean cozy cafe. We got the radish salad which wasn't really a salad but provided some tasty crunch with the assorted nuts. Bianco pizza which had basil and a little bit of chili oil and probly a couple other things for about $30. It was very tasty, nice crust, good cheese to grease ratio. Prices are a tad bit high considering it's a 16" but nothing crazy. read more

We ordered Bianco pizza but vegetarian and it was delicious. I usually leave the crust for my husband but this time I ate the whole slice cause it was that good. I don't like ricotta but the one they use was such a high quality I enjoyed it.

Owner should be ashamed. Leaving a review because they stated, "Good luck writing a bad review..." Well here it is! Not only was the food below average -- bland, overcooked, and definitely not worth the price -- but the service was flat-out disrespectful. My friend was charged $280 for food that never even made it to the table, and when we brought it up, we were met with attitude instead of accountability. No apology. No effort to fix it. Just judgmental, dismissive behavior from the staff. It's one thing to have a bad meal. It's another to be treated like you're the problem for pointing it out. This place clearly values ego over customer experience. Save your money, your time, and your dignity -- there are far better places to eat where you'll be respected and not ripped off. read more

Bomb pizza. Service was friendly, maybe a tad overly attentive, but how can I really complain about that? Would've liked the options of crushed chilis but wasn't a deal breaker.

I was surprised when I was handed the bill and they had automatically added 20% gratuity. The service we received was good and I probably would have given 15-18% anyway but for a party of four to automatically be charged 20% is unacceptable... that should be the diner's choice on the service given. Second, we were not even finished and we were told that the next reservation was waiting for our table. This is also NOT acceptable, what if we would have wanted another drink or something else. I would not recommend No Saint. read more
