The food was Americanized Italian food and while the portion size was significant, authenticity was lacking. We enjoyed the fried ravioli appetizer but felt rushed during the experience because the appetizers, breadsticks, and entree all came to the table at exactly the same time. While there did appear to be tasty specials available, we were never read or provided information about the specials that day nor provided with a recommendation. Despite the misplaced timing of food we did enjoy the seating and decor for a relaxing, family friendly ambiance.

Even though the menu is limited - if you enjoy pizza I highly recommend visiting this place.

We get so used to rushed, fast paced, half assed mediocre pizza these days, House of Fire pizza is a breath of fresh air when it comes to the quality and authenticity of eating pizza for a night out.

The menu is to the point: Pizza, Calzone, Stromboli, Salads and a sweet Canoli. I had a 12" pepperoni. It was good. The sauce is a good acidic tomato sauce and a good crust. Not too much cheese and the pepperoni wasn't bad, I would and will order it again. I also tried the Stromboli. At first glance I was a little disappointed, it looked like a mid-shaped calzone but the contents we delicious. Very flavorful. It was a little too doughy for my preference but I'm sure it will be a hit on the menu. From door to dining, maybe 30 minutes and I was pleased with the service. The pizzas are hand tossed and fired on order The Canoli wasn't bad. Wins: the sauce, I love San Marzano tomatoes for any red sauce! And they kept the acidic palate pleasing flavor, not drowning out the tomato with sugar! Well done y'all. The Pizza Crust is very good! I didn't try the Calzone but I was able to snap a picture of someone's order. If you like cheese, order the Calzone. Y'all, support local business and enjoy Wasillas version of a NY Pie

Even though I specifically asked for al dente, and also stressed to the waitress I'd rather the pasta is undercooked than overcooked, it came out like the typical American restaurant pasta mush that dissolves in your mouth. You should be able to bite into pasta, not feel it dissolve on your tongue - besides the fact overcooked pasta has a higher glycemic index, which contributes to overeating and weight gain, and is therefore less healthy. Additionally, it was not "topped" with sauce, but rather it looked like pasta soup. And there shouldn't be so much cheese in pasta sauce that it forms strings when you raise your fork to your mouth. Way too much Parmesan cheese, so it masked the other flavors that should have been there. Since the sauce flavor was ok (but not spectacular since the primary overwhelming flavor was the Parmesan) we boxed the rest of the sauce after I attempted to finish my overcooked and texture deficient pasta. A couple nights later we cooked a full pound of pasta (correctly) at home and were able to eat four servings with the leftover sauce! So there was enough sauce in one dish for the equivalent of five people! That's just ridiculous. So our recommendation: 1) cook the pasta correctly, 2) reduce the cheese in the sauce, 3) reduce the sauce to 20% of what you currently serve - you can serve five times as many people with the same amount of sauce, and actually drop the price of this dish to something more reasonable, and you'll still come out ahead. That's our two cents from having dined in three dozen countries, all fifty states, and having even taken cooking lessons in Italy.

I don't know how I could give this place higher praise after the incredibly tasty meal we were served. We started with the Calamari and also the Empanadas for the table. I've had Empanadas at least 40-50 different times and locations all over the world No joke these were the tastiest ones I have ever had. I crispy initial bite followed by a soft warm/hot filling that was packed with goodness The green sauce was so good I forgot to try the whiter sauce. I would literally come back just for these as they were out of the world delicious. The calamari was tasty and prepared well not over cooked or undercooked. The chef prepared them well but my focus was on the Empanadas so I hardly ate any Calamari. Then came the entrees and I was blown away at the Seafood Linguini. The scallops & , shrimp-were perfectly cooked in a rich and creamy sauce that was Devine. It struck the perfect balance of a delicious garlic, buttery goodness with the cream. Just the right amount of sauce that every bite was covered in sauce but somehow it packed a punch of flavor in every bite. I wish tomorrow wasn't my last day in Wasilla before heading home because I could come to this place everyday I was so good. Now for the final treat, the view. Nestled on a hill overlooking this beautiful lake with mountains in the background I'm struggling to paint a picture worthy of that view. When I first arrived I thought to myself this place must survive purely on the views given the bad reviews. Not at all, even though I would put this view as my top 2-3 ever at a restaurant ( Compared to a Michelin restaurant in Cannes France overlooking the Ocean, a restaurant at the top of a mountain in Keystone Colorado, and this place all breathtaking. Having said that, I actually think the food was better than the view if that's possible. Next time I make it back to Alaska, this place will be my first stop for certain. I sure hope when I make it back in a year or two it's performing at this level because this was an experience I won't soon forget. If you're on the fence based on reviews, do yourself a favor and at least try the Empanadas or Seafood Linguini. These are unforgettable!
