Little Italy with small side of ranch
Katelyn D.

As a lifelong lover of pizza, River City Wood Fire pizza has reignited my love for quality personal sized pizzas. Every time I've been - they have never once disappointed me in crafting phenomenal flavor in every single bite. From the first bite with fresh toppings, perfectly melted cheese, tasty sauce to the last crunch of perfectly cooked crust - this is the best pizza I believe I've had in my life. I used to believe ranch and pizza was the oddest thing - but now after tasting theirs / I am now a believer. Their staff is incredibly friendly and hard working even when handling large crowds. I hope anyone that loves pizza is blessed enough to swing by their food truck or location and grabs a personal pizza from here.

Okay strap in because this is going to be a long very complimentative review. Anytime someone asks me what my favorite food in Richmond is, my answer is always River City Wood Fire Pizza. My husband and I have been enjoying this food truck for six years. We follow them to wherever they set up because they are that good - and now that they opened their brick and mortar location close to our house it's a dangerous game we play. The pizza dough is a sourdough crust and there's nothing more satisfying them the delicious/chewy/soft crust. Their pizzas are all fun and incentive (we love the 64 west, Northside, sir Brussels, any of their seasonal pizzas, the angry zinski.. we don't discriminate when it comes to their options to be honest). The hot honey they use for their pizzas is a must - just do yourself a favor and order it added to your pizza. Also, the homemade ranch - delicious. Their wings are also a must try, their juicy/tender/tasty - again do yourself a favor and try them. We love them so much that we had them cater our wedding. Not only were they a huge hit (we still get compliments about the pizza), but they also were very accommodating when we had to change the location a few days before the wedding - thanks to Hurricaine Ian. I really cannot recommend them enough! Best food truck and pizza in Richmond hands down

Buffalo chicken pizza
Charla J.

Went to Hardywood Brewery (west creek location) for some Halloween fun with our kids and decided to grab a bite from River City. There was a stand where you could order the pizza and once you're done, you can input your phone number and you'll receive a text that it's done & ready for pick up (thank GOODNESS because it was 85degrees out so my husband def wanted to come wait back inside with us). He ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and it was AMAZING! Cooked to perfect and you could taste all of the flavors. It was very fresh and worth the wait. The pizza itself was fairly small but I'm not sure if there was another option to order a larger one (my husband did the ordering while the rest of us waited inside) We decided to give them another try at some point! I wish they delivered to us. I could eat that pizza every day!

Zinski with cashew cheese and added jalapeños
Lauren B.

I cannot say enough good things about this food truck and their delicious pizza! I'm very dairy intolerant, and have to avoid it almost completely. I've never looked forward to a cheese substitute in my life until I came across River City Wood Fire's house made cashew cheese. It's absolutely delicious! Their classic Zinsky pepperoni pizza with cashew cheese is one of my favorites but their specials are always worth considering trying, they're usually really exciting too. They also have great desserts! I follow River City on Instagram to keep up with where they're visiting next and if they're in the area, or I'm really craving them, you can bet I'm rolling up for two pizzas just for myself. I don't see that changing anytime soon.

This pizza is so good. I'll come back for that crispy pepperoni time and time again. The inside is very cute for how small of a space is but with the wood fire oven it definitely gets hot in the summer. Good music and the kids enjoyed watching the pizzas get made. Service was friendly and pretty fast considering we didn't order ahead of time.

Really hot and yummy. Quick service and easy ordering. Come back to our neighborhood!

This truck is THE best. They stop by my office lot every few weeks and it's definitely popular. The pizza is fresh out the wood fire oven. It's not too greasy. I get the 64 west because I like simple, but also love ricotta and bacon. The wait is a little long because it's fresh, but definitely worth it. Don't know what else to say but if you haven't had their pizza yet, you're slacking!

Old Bay Dry Rub and Spicy Honey wings

Some of the best pizza around. Have lots of different pizza choices. The folks here are super friendly and a joy to interact with. Definitely will be back for more pizza and wings!!!

Carol Anne
Kathleen D.

River City Wood Fire is a fairly stellar mobile pizzeria that intermittently stops by my present workplace downtown. It does take about fifteen minutes depending on the queue size to get a pie (since they have to make it in their fancy oven...it's not frozen crap). Once ready, they offer to put it in a mini box or on a sturdy paper plate. So far I've tried two different pies -- the 64-West and the Carol Anne. Both are white-based with different toppings. While the 64 had smoked bacon and basil on it, I definitely preferred the Carol Anne (minced garlic, spinach, black pepper, fontina, mozzarella, parmesan, sea salt, olive oil) and that'll likely become my go-to in the future. The pizzas cost no more than $11 (+ tip...those folks work hard!), and they offer gluten-free or vegan by request. If you see the truck, I'd really suggest ordering a pie. Totally worth the carbs!

Churchill pizza with added jalapeños
Michael B.

Great pizza! My wife and I tried it for the first time last night. She got the Hawaii 5-0, and I got the Churchill. We were both really happy with our selections and plan to go back again.

At their downtown location
Han V.

I am lucky to live walking distance away from their spot downtown! The line can get pretty long but the pizzas come out relatively quick (less than 10 minutes). All of their pizzas are made fresh to order and are about $10 or $11. They are about the size of a paper plate and can be easily finished if you're pretty hungry. The crust comes out nice and smokey from the wood fired oven which gives the pizza another depth of flavor but it isn't overwhelming. It can get a little floppy though so just watch your toppings as you go in for the next piece. All of the toppings are very fresh and you can taste the quality of their ingredients. I'm really surprised they don't have more reviews because I think they are better than most of the "established" pizza places in Richmond!

Fried pickles!

Our favorite pizza in Richmond!! We follow the truck wherever they go. Pro tip, GET THAT HONEY DRIZZLE!!!! Always quick service!!

Christopher B.

Well we were at hardy wood, few beers in having ourselves A DAY. Little did we know River City Fire was here and guess what... THEY DELIVERED. We got the porky pig pizza and I swear to you it was the best pizza I have had. Workers were very nice and I have zero complaints....10/10. Buy this pizza!!!

When we entered the restaurant the hostess was not in sight. We waited several minutes with several other parties behind us. When the hostess approached she asked how many and spotted my mother in law. I responded 4 and she scoffed. She said we have booths only very rudely. The attitude from her led to my response of this seems like our cue to leave. Clearly there were tables but at the time there was not one available. We of course would have waited but my mother in law stated she could move into a booth. The woman appeared surprised and sat us in the booth. It is disappointing that an establishment is not considerate of all types of people. It will be a long time before we return if ever.

We tried the burrata, calamari, and bruschetta for starters, drinks were delicious, and food was over the top. I'll be honest, I make my own pasta? This was worth going out for!! Homemade noodles, classic dishes, and so many different unique ravioli, and we tried most of them!!! Diego was the absolute best, the table was like eating at our own, the separate rooms kept the noise to a minimum, it was truly an amazing experience and well over the 3 stars that some have given this. Best Italian since I moved to VA 6 years ago from NY.

I found it at Cabrera's pizza. The only pizza I haven't had that has been recommended was Zorch Pizza. I called them at 5 o'clock on a Friday and they told me I could get my pizza by 7:30. I'm sure it's wonderful but certainly not worth the wait. Cabrera had me at 15 minutes!

Our waitress Johanna is the absolute best she is very engaging and helped us navigate through their menu of Italian delights and shared some of her favorites! So we opted to try their Meat Lover's pizza (loaded with toppings and served piping hot on a perfectly baked crust 5/5), steak and cheese and fries (the roll gave homemade but if not it surely did taste super fresh and yummy paired with the very well seasoned steak and fresh toppings, fries also served piping hot 4.4/5) and their Penne with Pink Vodka sauce where I added sliced fried chicken cutlets (ok so it was a bit drier than I would prefer but the pasta was cooked well and the sauce was so tasty with a little kick, maybe next time leave the cutlets whole to keep from drying out and add more sauce but other than that we enjoyed the dish 3.4/5) oh the pasta dishes are served with house salad and I opted for their homemade house dressing and rolls (all rated 3/5). Healthy portions so much so we had lunch! They are closed on Tuesday but if in the area tell Johanna I sent you!

But not this time! Everyone has a bad day-- I get it! I never was in the restaurant business, and I'm sure it isn't easy- but all I wanted was to get a replacement pizza on our account after receiving a large thin crust pie with pepperoni and extra sauce. But it looks like I ran into one very polite and caring employee who was caught in the middle, and a "manager" who was a no-show this last Tuesday. I called and ordered the following: * One large regular crust pepperoni with extra sauce. * One large thin crust pepperoni with extra sauce. When we arrived home we noticed the regular crust pizza was fine; the thin crust pizza was burned in places and very dry. We notified the store the next day at around 1500 hrs. The person on duty was polite but couldn't authorize a credit. The manager was out of the building so we set up a tone for him to call me. He never did. We even texted a picture of the burnt pizza to the assistant's phone. It's all in the attached texts- his number is redacted. Doc L.
