Lovely Linda. 2nd time ordered. Wrong both times.
Stacee C.

We ordered 2 pizzas. One was burnt and gross. The other was completely wrong. We called and they knowingly said they made the vegan pizza with real cheese and still sent it out. They remade the pizza and the new pizza was ridiculous. A burnt crust with hardly anything on it. This is the second time this has happened here. We are officially 0-2. If you want what you ordered -- I wouldn't go here! This Lovely Linda doesn't look so lovely.

Pizza jerk is sooo good, I also love their ranch. The restaurant is also pretty chill and the people are friendly. Their pizza is now a must have whenever I visit my friend in Portland.

Pepperoni Pizza

Service was super great. They treated everyone so nicely inside and the vibe was great ! However the pizza was average, IF that. About $4 for 1 slice. the crust was pretty hard. It was a thin slice and not fresh, it was premade and you could tell it's been sitting a while. Would not come here again. But thank you to the workers and staff, you guys were great!!!

Working near by and lucky enough to have a great selection of food. Pizza it is and pizza it was. Lunch special for 9.50 you get two slices and soda. Pretty fair price these days. You may wonder why only 3 stars. Well I think pizza is one of those categories where a three star is pretty damn good. As a matter of fact it's good enough that I returned for a second time and will go back again. Also they have a ranch for .50 that I enjoy. I used to dip everything in ranch lol. Again I don't want the three stars to deter anyone. You absolutely should try it. I enjoyed every bit of it. I had the veggie and meat pizza for my first go around. My second time I had pepperoni. It had the cupped roni and some kinda of Hawaiian type pizza. Both were great. Anyways go check them out.

Ok..... awesome pizza. The crust could be a tad firmer. Excellent sauce though. Explored the back patio which was really nice. Tons of families there. There's a play structure for people to climb on. Bring the dogs and the kids We'll be back for sure.

Pizza Jerk is awesome! Read the great reviews so it went on my list to try. And it did not disappoint. I ordered half It's Always Sunny in Cully (add sausage) and half Clam Jam. The pizza was a little on the expensive side, but it was very large. Large enough for about three meals. I would never had thought to order clams on my pizza, but it was really delicious. You could hardly tell they were even on there. It was just buttery, garlicky goodness. The pizza is a New York style so it had a very thin crust. The crust was a bit floppy, even when folded, but it didn't bother me since it was so ding dang tasty! I would definitely get the clam jam again! The people working there were really welcoming and friendly. And the place gave off a super chill vibe and was really clean.

Pizza!

Not the cleanest place, but definitely has that hole-in-the-wall, I'm about to eat something really good vibe. Super laid back pizza place that will make you think of eating pizza as a kid in the 80s w/ red plastic cups, checkered vinyl tablecloths with rips & before California had so many rules for food establishments. You know...when things were fun! Employees sit on the counter, talk to their friends on the phone & one even rolled in & looked like he was still in pajamas/half asleep‍ But, this place is interesting! Lots of cool, vintage posters to look at while you wait. The Caesar salad is delicious (they have amazing house made dressings), served with a fresh lemon wedge & yummy croutons. We ordered the pizza with pepperoni, pineapple, peppers, basil & honey; ordered the ranch & truffle ranch for dipping. SOOOOO good! I noticed lots of people stopping in w/ kids just for the ice cream, so we got a giant spoonful to sample before heading out. Very creamy & good! We were too full, but would definitely come back & eat ice cream while we wait for our pizza I've been hearing about Pizza Jerk's Rice Krispie treats for years, so that was a must. I love the saltiness & butterscotch chips, but we can do better! It's definitely not chewy with the amount of marshmallow that really takes a Rice Krispie treat to the next level. I'd skip it & head straight for the soft serve.

This place reminds me of Sizzle Pie in a way except the music is way better... The atmosphere is relaxed with helpful staff that will engage with you even when they are busy. The decor is on the funky side. They have a decent selection of beer. In addition, they have thin pizza by the slice which is a huge plus, and they have vegan choices which is another plus... They pizza is not artesian style and tend to be on the thick side, but it is very good. There's a decent size private parking behind the building, so you don't have to waste time looking for a spot.

They deliver through an app called Caviar. The chicken parm pizza is delish.

I've only had delivery from Pizza Kat, so I can't say anything about the location, but the food is…read moregreat. Had pizza from here twice during a long stay in Portland, and enjoyed it both times. The first time, we had a pepperoni pizza, a side of meatballs, and grape sorbetto. We liked the meatballs so much that, the second time, we had the Alley Kat pizza and, again, the grape sorbetto. The pizzas were both excellent--good crust with a great chew, good proportions for the toppings, and a cheese that tasted like cheese. (reductive? Maybe, but so much mozzarella is bland and rubbery that it seems worth mentioning.) The grape sorbetto was an excellent way to finish the meal both times: sweet, but not too sweet, and very bright to cleanse the palate.

I hate to write this review because I was genuinely excited to try this place, but with so many…read moregreat pizza options nearby, this one is an easy skip for me. Unfortunately, this was both our first and last visit. I don't think I've ever disliked a pizza before, but this may be the first one I would genuinely call bad. I enjoy wood-fired pizza and don't mind a little char, but somehow this pizza tasted noticeably bitter despite having very little visible charring. Whether it was the lack of sauce, the sauce itself being quite bland, or simply an imbalance of flavors, the end result just wasn't pleasant. The biggest issue is the value. A $25 cheese pizza doesn't need to be life-changing, but it should at least taste better than Costco's. In this case, unfortunately, it didn't. If your goal is to enjoy great pizza, I'd recommend one of the many other pizza spots in the area instead.

The bartender (Ryan!) was super friendly and made me an incredible Añejo old-fashioned with El Tesoro tequila. Turns out, he knew the co-founder of Tequila Ocho years ago and helped in the early days of the additive-free tequila movement. Anyway, the cocktail was well balanced and delicious! It was now happy hour, so I ordered a gluten-free spicy salami pizza. It was one of the best thin crust pizzas I have ever had! I thought about saving some of it for later, but I inhaled the whole thing. The sauce was perfectly proportioned. The spicy salami and cheese blend was incredible. I highly recommend this pizza! I needed a second cocktail, and Ryan made me an incredible Sazerac. Sweet, but no too sweet, and a wonderful way to wrap up my meal.

I am going to let you in on a little secret. I've been coming here for years, and this place is…read moreconsistently fantastic! This review is broken up into 2 parts. Pizza (Oven) and Cocktails (Shaker). The Oven part of the restaurant name. When it comes to food, I love pizza and that is what I am going to highlight here. They have a nice selection of standard pizza and 18 different additional toppings that you can add so it is super easy to get a pizza just the way you like it OR create something never before seen. It up to you! Don't forget to ask about the daily pizza pie they are currently offering. I am gluten free. I am not celiac. I actively avoid gluten. Their GF crust is a great option. I remember the first time I got it I asked the server if this was the GF crust and they said it was. I was like amazing! Note to self: Yelp does not support emoji in reviews. The Shaker part of the restaurant name For me, the craft cocktails here are spectacular! There is a half page menu with 9 well thought out drinks. It changes regularly. Is it seasonally? I don't know. There are tasting notes and even the actual recipe for the drink! I've never seen that before. If something doesn't suit your fancy, ask for something off menu. I've done it several times and always been pleased.

For example, when the Arugula Salad is made well, it is fantastic. However we have had repeated experiences where the greens are not fresh, or the dressing is forgotten, or there is no cheese. We have had repeated issues specifically with takeout orders, over many years. Additionally, if you dine-in, there is an entire bottle of oil on the table that you are encouraged to use on your pizza. It is delicious, and really completes the pizza flavor profile! They used to automatically include two small containers of oil per pizza if you ordered to-go. Current policy appears to be to not include any oil with the pizza (unless explicitly asked) and to only provide a maximum of two oils (even if multiple pizzas are ordered). I don't know if there is an oil shortage or what, but this is silly for a place that charges so much for their pizza. Life of Pie is a typical Portland restaurant that expects you to tip before you receive your food (and also expects you to bus your own table). To me, this expectation alongside with the inconsistency of the food for the price, is disappointing, and does not encourage people to go out of their way to return. When the food is good it is a solid place, however I would expect much more consistency for the price they command.

I got a slice and salad combo for $11 that I really enjoyed. There was a lot salad that took up half the plate and I enjoyed the balsamic. The quality of the produce was 10/10. I got a piece with pesto cheese and balsamic. It was 4/5. My other friend really enjoyed the pepperoni. They have a soda fountain of all the jones sodas if that's ur thing. All the staff were really cool and stylish. Wouldn't go out of my way to come back but a solid place to return to if I'm nearby and want something reliable.
