    Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings
    Chyann F.

    I ordered the river rat supreme pizza to go and it was missing several toppings. Based on previous reviews and pictures I was expecting a delicious pizza....but it was far from it. The garlic Parmesan sauce for the chicken wings was very good but wings were very undercooked. Very Disappointing.

    Driving through and we were all hungry and found this place on Yelp. I won't lie, when we drove up we questioned our decision. No windows on the building, doors are completely covered up with ads. The sign outside advertises a Tavern but no sign (that we saw) for River Rat Pizza. Parking lot is compacted dirt. We headed on in and found a bar with lots of locals (you can tell based on their interactions that they all know each other). In the corner of the bar is a door - one of those that 1/2 opens while the other 1/2 stays closed - that houses River Rat Pizza. Dollar bills with writing are on the walls and ceiling along with old records for the decor. Definitely more of a to go place for the pizza . Drinks must be ordered and paid for at the bar itself which is a different business then the pizza place. After ringing the bell on the counter (the 1/2 door) a gentleman came over to take our order. We got a pizza 1/2 veggie and 1/2 supreme, garlic cheese bread, and an antipasto salad. The order took awhile and we did question our decision to come here based on dive bar feel and looks we got from the locals (not anyone working in the bar or pizza place). River Rat Pizza ended up being a pleasant surprise though. The salad had the cheese freshly grated and the meats freshly chopped. The cheesy garlic bread - while greasy - was delicious and full of flavor. The pizza was good. The sausage had excellent flavor and the garlic on the veggie side perfect. We all agreed we would happily stop here again if passing through. Although we would probably call ahead and just get it to go.

    BUCKY'S SPECIAL

    Did a quick yelp search for pizza when I was in Needles, CA for work. Called and asked about the type of crust as the website says hand tossed, extra thin, extra thick and gluten free. I told her I wanted thin crust but not crunch like cracker. I placed my order and picked it up. It looked just like I wanted and on my first bite, it was exactly as I hoped. Thin like New York style pizza and not crunchy. I ordered the Bucky's Special which is Pepperoni, Sausage and Mushrooms and I loved it. I even called the place back to let her know she nailed it!

    If you want to wait an hour and a half for your pizza this is the place. It's not busy and we're still waiting.

    Delicious Pizza inside the tavern. Just walk in the front door and the pizza door is around the corner to the right, by the bathrooms.
