My family and I recently visited Pizza Thief on a Tuesday evening and the outside seating area was relatively crowded around 6:30 p.m. Between the 7 in our large party, we picked up two pizzas and an order of their cheese bread -- along with a side of their garlic anchovy dip. The first pizza we ordered was their special -- a sweet corn and chiles, and the other one was the "baller" from their standard menu, a meatball topped red pie. If you enjoy spicy pizza, you'll absolutely love the corn and chiles one. The seeded peppers definitely pack a punch. With the baller pizza, the beef & pork meatballs were well-seasoned and had a nice balance of lean and fatty bits. What I really liked about the pizza here was not just that the combination of flavors worked really well together, but the quality of the crust was fantastic. The crust is rolled out to be super thin, is cooked to be crispy enough that it doesn't flop over when it's folded, and the crust has a wonderful chew to it that doesn't exhaust your jaw as you're working on your second or third slice. In addition to whole pizzas, they also do pizzas by the slice, sandwiches, desserts, beers, and cocktails. This spot really has it all. I cannot recommend Pizza Thief enough -- definitely worth going out of your way to check it out. read more

The best gluten free crust I have ever had! I judge all other GF crusts based off of this. It is thick and great chew. You would not suspect that it is GF. So...is this place safe for celiacs? No. They make a LOT of regular flour dough pizza here so there will be a ton of cross contamination. You have been warned. I actively avoid gluten and have not had a problem here. I always order the Meat Sweats on GF crust. You have to sub out the meatballs on this because the meatballs have gluten in it. Service is walk up to the counter and order. You either get your slice right away or they give you a number and you go sit down in anticipation. This place isn't fine dining by any stretch, and it isn't meant to be. It is a casual place to sit, eat, and catch up with friends over a slice or two. read more

Perfect for a quick bite. Was super hungry and looking for somewhere to go before a workout class in NW. Pizza thief was the perfect spot. You can order by the slice or whole pizzas. I ordered their seasonal pizza with their special "closer" cookie (chocolate chip cookie with hazelnut). Was all delish! Indoor and outdoor seating. Public restroom available. read more

I really liked this pizza spot! There was outside and inside seating and the staff was nice and friendly and all the dishes were really good. I actually really really liked the salad and cheesy bread. I didn't care for their special this day, the square pizza as I thought it just wasn't as good as their regular sliced -- the flavors didn't go well for me but everything else was great. Would def go back read more

Great plant based options, without any fake products(no fake cheese or meat). The sourdough crust is soooo good and chewy with a nice crispy surface that is perfection. The sauces are so flavorful but not too salty. And topped with amazing veg. They also have the most amazing vegan thumbprint cookies. They're a corn meal base, I think......and I have NOT been able to reproduce them. So there's some kind of magic there :) read more

FIRST TIME - BEST PDX PIZZA! I saw a guy loading up huge tubs of fresh organic lettuce from Sunrise Farms at the Wednesday farmers market in Shemanski Park, South Park Blocks, near Arlene Schnitzer theatre. I guessed he must be a chef buying for his restaurant. Yup - Darby is one of two chef/owners of Pizza Thief on NW 26th ST and NW Vaughn ST, Alphabet District. We chatted briefly. I was delighted to hear he buys mostly "ALL" organic and local NW for his pizza place. Gotta go! Two days later my wife and I showed up for lunch. We ordered the market salad loaded with farm fresh organic veggies and the Sunrise oak leaf lettuce. The salad presentation was so colorful (carrots, radishes, green beans, snap peas, pickled asparagus, chives, sheep mile feta) looking like a Claude Monet painting. Big hearty salad tossed in a big bowl. Ya, edible art! So delish with scratch made green goddess dressing. Order a whole pizza or by the slice - which we did. Wife went for a "Vegan Special" slice with tomato sauce, roasted mushrooms, piquillo peppers, kale, mustard greens, Calabrian chili-garlic oil, and Sicilian oregano. I had "Hot Tony" with tomato sauce, pepperoni, schiacciata salami,  calabrian-chili, piquillo peppers, jalapeño mozz-provolone, fior di latte, grana, and sicilian oregano. The pizza looked like abstract art too and was delish. Perfect dough, cooked completely through and not soggy, crispy crunchy crust and slice loaded up with farm fresh ingredients. Sourdough fermented pie is also local and organic NW Camas Mill (what the top pizza places in Portland use) with whole grains. We've been to James Beard award winning or nominated PDX pizza places like Ken's, Lovely Fifty Fifty, Nostrana and Mozza (LA) - throw in other good PDX pizza like Oven & Shaker, Mount Hood brewing and APizza Scholls too - Pizza Thief is in this best pizza in Portland conversation but - but - but - the local NW farm fresh ingredient moved my pizza needle - Pizza Thief to the top of my "OH MY" list. Oh my - I love this pizza! I love supporting local farms, especially organic or pesticide free farmers, who are growing product good for my health - good for the soil - good for the environment. Then, I love those restaurants like Pizza Thief that buy from Oregon NW farmers! Winner! Winner! Winner! Farmer! Pizza shop! Yelpin Foodie! All winners! Pizza Thief serves it up for a Yelpin foodie. I will be back for with my Yelpin bib on for more salads, sandwiches and pizza with a cold brew. Chow out! Chow down! read more

Pizza Thief lives up to the hype. We got the Valley girl, which was absolutely delicious. It's one of their vegetarian pizzas with a basil pesto cream instead of the regular house, and the toppings went very well with it. It was savory and filling You can also order by the slice if you want to try this one first or another one. This was our first time so we decided to go for it since I love pesto, and it did not disappoint. If you like your spice I definitely suggest getting the Calabrian chili dip on the side. Has a nice kick! It was easy to order online and pickup, but they do have plenty of tables to walk in as well read more

pizza thief is very good pizza. new haven style i think? anyway, it's a go-to for our family despite being on the other side of town for us. and it's saying something to stand out as a pizza joint in this town known for its good pizza. they sell by the slice, which is rarer and convenient and all the pizza slices i've tried are quite rich in flavor and crusty and delicious. but my favorite is the hot tony (jalapeno and pepperoni) or the meatball one. their specials are good too. and their ice cream is a must have as well. lastly, i must mention their ranch dipping sauce - it is next level greatness, especially if you like dill. extra special. and it's nice that pizza thief shares a wall/door with the bar next door which provides nicely made stiff cocktails. read more

Pizza Thief - 18" MARGHERITA - Pizza Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Delicious thin crust pizza. My friends and I split a whole pie, we each ate two slices and took home 2 slices which was a better deal. We tried to get a whole pie of the seasonal one but understandable they were limited on ingredients so we got the Woodland - which is their mushroom pizza, not red sauce based. We were recommended the Calabrian chili garlic sauce. It was two extra dollars, but did not disappoint as a pairing for the mushroom pizza. Too full for the ice cream, but it appeared to be made in the store and had some fun flavors. They have a fair amount of seating inside. And they also have a patio, which is unheated but is covered and you were able to bring the dog. read more

A soft crust pizza that's cooked perfectly! They have a bunch of different pizzas but only serve what you see in the display. I got a classic cheese pizza and it was yummy! The slices are decent sized. My friend and I shared their Caesar salad which was made with kale. We honestly weren't too sure about it at first but it worked so well. The dressing was perfectly sour. Only street parking here. I came on a Wednesday afternoon and didn't have trouble finding parking at all. read more

Pizza Thief was the best spot I had in Portland, OR. It's so hard to find a good pizza in my opinion, especially thin crust, but Pizza Thief proved that it can be done right. The restaurant is really comfortable and cozy. Despite the menu offered, they only offer slices that's in the box. I had the Pepperoni, the crust was so thin and crispy. The cheese and pepperoni complimented the side of Calabrian chili sauce wonderfully. I also had another slice that came with hot honey--I don't remember the name, but also delicious. The bites with honey complimented the chili sauce perfectly! They also had sandwiches on the menu and dessert which unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to try. The gentlemen who took my order was also very kind! read more

My favorite pizza in Portland at the moment! Can't go wrong with the pepperoni and got the current special. Sandwich is pretty stuffed and got messy. Not pictured is the cookies, chocolate chip and jam thumbprint, get the cookies. Service is excellent. There was a miscommunication when ordering and a slice was missing but they comped it for us!

I was briefly in Portland and went to a pizza spot that I knew had some delicious slices. The seasonal pesto slcies were our favorite, but their cheese is pretty great too. This time for some reason the wildeood pizza wasn't quite as great as I remembered it and I didn't really like the cannoli much, but the cookie was delicious and their ranch dressing here is superb as well! It's always nice to stop by one of my favorite pizza spots in Portland. The service is always friendly and the ambiance is pretty nice as well :) read more

The pizza is pretty mid. Standard NY style pizza. Greasy. Sold by the slice as well as whole pies. Tried both a mushroom and hot tony. Mushroom was less flavorful than expected and hot tony was just hot and also lacking flavor. The vibe is cool and the beer list/bar next door are great. At 0200 after drinking a lot- this pizza would be satisfying for sure, but for a sober lunch it's a 3. read more

Been here twice now, I live in the neighborhood. First time I had the vegan slice, which wasn't too bad... the crispy kale chips on top were fun and pretty good. Hub had a pepperoni slice and thought it was good but too salty. Went again yesterday for another round, same orders and added foccacia. Blech... the vegan slice had way too much kale, and the kale underneath the crispy kale chips was soggy and bitter. I removed most of it. Hub thought again that the pepperoni slice was way too salty and got a rare case of heartbburn afterward. We didn't finish our slices. Foccacia was ok... a small portion at over $5, and cold... why? It would have been much better heated and maybe served with a tiny bit of marinara. I don't know. We decided two times was enough times. read more

Pizza Thief - Half Marinara, half pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Portland, Oregon

During a work trip to the NW Montgomery Park area, found a great pizza spot. Pizza Thief, as you walk into the building you are greeted by a very friend staff. The interior is very causal and inviting, there is an attached walk way to an attached bar. To place your order, you line up and then queue to the main counter, to your left they have a large display case of the various pizza types, you can order them by slice or a whole pie. The menu board is easy to read, you really need to try the various dipping sauces, they have a small charge for them, my favorite the Ranch is amazing, enjoy the others. I ordered the Kevin Pepperoni slice, I really love the small Pepperoni, its a nice large slice of pizza, it takes a few min to heat up your pizza, they will call your name once its ready. They offer a variety of drinks both alcoholic and regular drinks. The pizza was amazing, very flavorful, cheesy and a nice crust, again the dipping sauces are a must. If you enjoy the outdoors, they have a nice covered area with bench style seating. It was very clean, bright and inviting business. I cannot wait to visit again. read more

This place connects to a bar and has plenty of seating. They have slices and an interesting menu. I saw a few sandwiches and desserts I would go back for. If you stop in around dinner time, expect a wait - even for one slice, which was all I wanted. It's "short order service" with one line to order at one register, so if a family of 6 has a big order ahead of you - it adds some time. Many options for slices, even vegan. I got the "hot tony" which lives up to its name. The toppings felt scarce for $6.50, especially for such a small slice. While tasty, it left more to be desired. I paid $4.50 for a small, glass coke - which might be the most I've paid anywhere in town for that size. I'll say the staff seemed nice, and they had a lot of people. The food seemed quality, but this is not your spot for a cheap slice. read more

I have been here twice. I wasn't impressed the first time but wanted to give it another shot. The pizza is ok not great but ok. The dough is pretty good. My issue is I ordered a cannoli and the price says $6.75 but rang up $7. I know it's only 25 cents but change the sign price to reflect the price being charged. I'm pretty sure I was charged more for each slice also but don't remember what the board price was. read more

Pizza Thief lived up to the hype! Their service is efficient, the atmosphere is lively and the food is doggone delicious. It is here where you can order pizza by the whole or by the slice. They have gluten free options and alcoholic beverage choices if either are your thing. But the best thing is that, yes, they do serve Coca-Cola products! My food recs are below: * Caesar: This is made with kale and is sprinkled with garlic focaccia crumbs. I highly recommend it because it pairs perfectly with a slice of your choice. * Wildwood: I love mushrooms and this is an excellent mushroom pizza! I'm definitely getting this again! * Highway 99: I didn't try this one personally but my friends were raving about it so figured I'd include it on my food recs. They said the braised pork shoulder is so delicious. It's a seasonal item so I'll definitely come back again (before it's gone) to try it for myself! Parking was a little scarce but not a huge problem. We went on a Sunday at 2pm. There was ample seating (and we were a party of 6). It's worth noting that after we ordered and took our seats, a big rush came through. However, the line moved rather quickly so don't feel discouraged. I highly recommend this place because it's really good pizza! Definitely give it a try! read more

I'm going a 3.5 to 4 for Pizza Thief. Service: Great service! Very friendly and personable staff. Environment and ambiance was great for a pizza joint. I love that they do pie by the slice! Pizza: TBH, I feel that the Pizza Thief robbed me a bit on overall flavor. I got a plain cheese and pepperoni, as one should for judging. The plain cheese left me underwhelmed. The sauce has a nice herbaceous tone, but I really wish it had more tang and brightness. The flavor on the cheese was mid as well. The pep slice added nice flavor. The stracciatella sandwich was great and was recommend. Same with the delicious jalapeno cheese bread made fresh to order! Kale Caesar was pretty good as well. Overall, a good pizza spot, maybe not one of my top in the Portland area. I wouldn't discourage anyone from going, but I'm not screaming mug that you need to go either. If I'm in the area and need a good bite, I'd be coming back. read more

Finally checked out this "best pizza in Portland" spot... and honestly? Kinda average. The pizza wasn't bad, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype. Tried the focaccia too, and that was a miss for me. That said, the atmosphere was really nice--cozy, lively without being too loud--and the service was excellent. So while the food didn't blow me away, the overall vibe of the place was great. read more

Great if you want something to eat after visiting the Adidas employee store. It's a few blocks away. My wife and I walked there while our kids were shopping at Adidas. Good solid pizza. Thin crispy crust. Only had one slice that was reheated so not sure if a fresh whole pizza would be better. Nice that you can get it by the slice. There are so many good pizza places in Portland... I would say top third, but not top 3. read more

Stopped here for a slice before going out and was not disappointed. Good price for a large slice, and exactly the kind of decadent greasy pizza you want.
