    Besides missing half the toppings on one side for some reason on the flying hawaiian with how expensive this place is, it's good. There is definitely better in town in my opinion though especially ones that I haven't experienced a miss portion of toppings on, not dying to come back. Mozzarella sticks were solid for the price.

    Pizza

    We bought a large pizza to go it was $36, sausage, pepperoni, black olive and mushroom. The crust was burnt, the sauce (if you can call it that) was minimal, raw, and flavorless. Pepperoni was so thinly sliced you could see through it, was barely present, and basically low quality, and cheese also had no flavor and was minimal. Staff seemed nice and restaurant appeared clean and festive. We ordered around 4 pm, so they were not busy and the wait was appropriate. The Pizza looks good in the box, but honestly the flavor is absent. I have no idea how Guy Fieri, famous Italian chef, could have reviewed this pizza as being excellent. They really need to make some improvements in the quality of their ingredients before we will return.

    Located in the venerable and now renovated Sargent's building, Pinky G's is one of a small chain of pizza restaurants and has been open less than a year. - Margherita pizza quite good. I would say the style is a hybrid of Neapolitan and NYC. Foldable but just barely. Nice char on the bottom. - Greek salad is also good. Server brought out a second bowl and explained that the easiest way to add the dressing on the side was to cover the salad with the second bowl and shake it up. Worked a charm. - The sign outside proclaims that the A/C is working. It surely is but maybe they need to dial up the temp a couple of degrees. It was a bit cold inside. - It's a loud restaurant. Music is loud; Banter between kitchen and front is loud. - Nice tap selection of local beers. - Limited options for vegetarians, particularly if you're wary of the cheese they use (possibly aged with animal rennet). They do have a couple of salads. - Really don't prefer the 'order at the bar' style of service. Works OK for your first order but if you want a second round of drinks, standing in line again to order is annoying, particularly if there's a rush. Table service would be nicer. - Various seating: several seats at the bar, several booths in the front room, several low-tops in the front room, quite a few high-tops in the back room. All in all, OK. Love the pizza. Don't love the limited menu or ambiance.

    Slice of the day: Meatball Mama

    I ordered the cheese pizza by the slice, and my husband had the slice of the day which was "Meatball Mama" (meatballs, shiitake mushrooms, green peppers, and Parmesan). Oh we also had the house salad. Really good food, friendly service, and a casual ambiance with good music.

    We went to Pisano's Woodfired pizza and was very surprised at the service and the food there!…read more The quality is amazing our Caesar salad was fresh and tasty and the dressing was different and not heavy and not over powering, I was going to order the shared Caesar salad off the menu and the waiter mentioned that the regular order will Feed 2 as the shared is really for 4 people. The chicken basil woodfired pizza was delicious and flavorful and had a nice crisp to the dough. The waiter said if we wanted a dessert he recommended the house made cheese cake, but we were pretty full, then I notice they had ice cream sandwiches and it was made in Portland Oregon with pure ingredients and the flavors they had was different from what we have back home, so of course we had to try some and we weren't disappointed! The ice cream sandwich was tasty and delicious and so refreshing. Restroom was clean and well maintained also restaurant was also clean and well maintained. You cannot beat woodfired pizza, we need to try some of the other options they have!

Then for the main meal we had lasagna which was melt in your mouth. It is their special on Thursday nights. The presentation of all our food was nothing but spectacular, as was the taste. I also had a homemade mocktail in a beautiful martini glass. All I can say is YUM! The owner and his crew are so welcoming and beyond friendly. It was like coming home to family. we highly recommend Pisanos Wood Fire Pizza in Tumalo for an incredible meal.

    Great Pizza & Great Value…read more Stopped at Olde Towne Pizza in Bend on a Thursday night and had a great experience. The restaurant was mostly empty, with a steady stream of takeout orders, and the service was friendly and prompt. The salad bar was great--fresh, well-stocked, and reasonably priced ($11 for large). My only complaint is that they don't allow multiple plates. By the end of our meal, the salad bar was still really well stocked, and I can't imagine they're able to save everything. I would have happily gone back for another plate, but couldn't, so it felt like a bit of unnecessary food waste was likely occurring. The pizza was excellent--generous toppings and really tasty, well-flavored dough. We ordered the "Primo" and added chicken. The 12-inch was more than enough for two people and was about $25. That's an awesome value for Bend--and honestly, I'd bet it was way better than all the breweries in town serving pizza as an afterthought. We left full and happy for around $50 total (excluding drinks and tip): Definitely a great and affordable spot for pizza in Bend!

    Had a craving for some pizza and found this spot on Google. It wasnt too busy when we entered only…read moreone other person in there, but it picked up some after we ordered. We looked over the menu before ordering, the girl at the counter gave us some time to brows and helped the other guest a regular as they were on a first name basis. We ordered small salads from the salad bar, cheese bread a pizza and some sodas. Thr salad bar had alot of options for topping your salad. I was a huge fan of what looked like house made croutons. They also had cottage cheese & fruit, potato salad that was good. They had everything from carrots to beets, peas and pickles. There were many options at their salad bar. The salad bar came with a breadstick as well. They made the pizza and it took about 20 minutes. They had a different type of pizza oven that what I am used to seeing back home. They do charge 50 cents per ranch for your pizza, no card cash only for that. We got called over the speaker when our appetizers was ready. We also got called to the counter to pick up our pizza. The regulars who arrived after us, got their food brought to the table. Not sure if you have to request that option. Also not there is a $1.50 boxing fee if you want a box for your left overs. Cake flats and foil are avaliable free at rhe counter. The pizza had the crisp at the base of the crust and a fluffier dough above. They were generous with the toppings and the slices were large. We had plenty of left overs. It wasnt the best pizza I have had but it was really good. The crust was perfect for what I was looking for, but next time i would get plain cheese or pepperoni over the combo.

    While eating at Podski on our first day in Bend, we saw another table pull out a delicious looking…read moreDetroit-style pizza from a box. We, having moved less than a year ago from Detroit, are always glad to see the style really spread through the US. Asking the couple where they got the pizza from, they pointed us to the next block where Abe Capanna's food cart is located. Of course, at that point, we had already ordered enough food to eat, so we relegated this place to the next day. Pouring rain, flooded roads, and power outages awaited our second day in Bend and the thought of Detroit style pizza was the only thing giving us respite. We arrived later in the evening than we liked due to the torrential downpour and were quoted a 30 minute wait. It ended up taking 31, so they seem to be pretty good at estimating (and that's also a pretty appropriate wait time for a quality Detroit-style pizza in the first place)! Taken from another of my reviews: there are several characteristics that define Detroit-style. Firstly, a focaccia dough-like crust, airy and chewy on the interior and with a crispness on the bottom and sides that's somewhat greasy but not overladen*. There must be flavorful Wisconsin brick cheese, buttery and tangy, melted on top and spread until it spills over the sides of the crust, creating a crisp caramelized cheese ring surrounding the pie. The pepperoni must be underneath the cheese**, and the flavorful tomato sauce, typically a large spoonful in two or three wide lines, is spread on top of the cheese. The crust must remain crisp without becoming soggy with moisture and there must not be too many toppings to prevent the crust from compressing and ruining the texture. *Note 1: The fat/grease is very important, both to allow the crust to crisp up and to act as a hydrophobic layer to prevent sogginess. **Note 2: This is the one trait I dislike about traditional Detroit-style, since it makes the pepperoni limp and soaked with grease. Any place that moves the pepperoni to the top is okay in my book. 8-Square Cheese Pizza w/ Pepperoni ($30) - As a mostly traditionalist, I always have to start with the classic pepperoni pizza. The pizza Abe Capanna's puts out is kind of strange in terms of shape. The dough doesn't quite stretch to the corners so the edges are rounded, but since they use a rectangular pan, some of the cheese crust, wonderfully salty and crisp, makes it to the corners. The pizza as a whole isn't quite rectangular and is instead more oblong The dough is fried very nicely to a consistent dark golden brown color, giving a great crisp texture with every bite and allowing enough grease to soak into the crust to prevent any watery moisture buildup. I think the dough is a little bit on the denser side vs airy, but it's nicely chewy and has well developed air pockets. The toppings start with a thick layer of cheese. I believe they use low moisture mozzarella, giving the pizza a mild taste with a very subtle tanginess and no fresh milkiness. A lot of places use brick cheese/mozzarella blends or just plain mozz nowadays, especially since it's more difficult to source the cheese the further a restaurant is away from Wisconsin. I'm actually okay with that for the most part. There's certainly not as much flavor in the cheese, but places have to make do with the ingredients they can obtain. The pepperoni is placed on top of the cheese and is baked until cupping upwards and crisped up. Tomato sauce is ladled on top, not entirely in a line, but rather dolloped on each slice. The sauce isn't a super fresh one, so its main characteristic is saltiness rather than any flavorful tomato acidity to help cut through some of the grease. the sauce is by far the weakest part of the pizza*. Between the cheese, pepperoni, and sauce, the pie is pretty well balanced with there being an appropriate amount of toppings to not overload the crust. While there are some weaknesses, I thought this was an excellent pizza, although not necessarily the most traditional Detroit-style. (4.5/5) Okay, so a couple of the reviews give Abe Capanna's a low rating because the reviewers complain that they don't serve a legitimate Detroit-style pizza. I tend to agree, given the major departures in shape and the cheese being used. Still, I think this is a delicious pizza, whether it's actually Detroit-style or not. Let's just call it a Bend-style interpretation of Detroit-style, if that makes everyone happier! *We had a couple of slices leftover and eating it the next day, the sauce actually becomes much more flavorful. Very interesting! If only it had tasted like that the first day! Note: Abe Capanna's charges a 3% credit card fee
