    Randomly decided to go here for pizza a little bit ago! I love the cute decor and lights on the ceiling. This restaurant is a cute little spot for pizza and drinks! The pizza was up to par and good and service was pretty alright considering there was only one server and a relatively good spot. It felt good to support a small business and the pizzas were filling and a reasonably priced! We had left overs as well which was nice!

    Riverwest pizza is so much cuter than the outside. The outside looks like 3 average big Riverwest houses with lots of siding that are combined. The inside has a handwritten chalk sign with the cocktails and wines, and a wooden overhang with nice fake roses. There's a very short bar with about 8 taps with the typical local beers. They also have 12ish cans. The menu isn't clear but the pizza are price for 14"/ price for 18". I tried the Weil which was a bbq pizza. The pizza was sweeter and not as thick bbq are typical but not oily at all and fresh. I enjoyed the fratney. They were out of duck though but substituted chicken. Seemed like all pizza were thin crust and not too saucy. The outside is almost a giant open green house. The outside has 12 tables that seat 4 plus 1 that seats 10, and 1 sort of patio table that would be difficult to eat on. The big table had plugs and usb ports. The service was quick. Pizzas took typical pizza lengths, especially since getting 4 for the group. You could customize the main pizzas. The server also split our check into 5 (she offered).

    An 18 inch pizza with a gluten free crust????

    Do not order the gluten free pizza! Get half the pizza for $4 more. I ordered an 18 inch pizza with a gluten free crust. Was hoping to feed a few people and then finally got the pizza and it was ice cold and half the amount of pizza I was expecting. Had to reheat the pizza when I got home. 2-9 inch pizzas do not equal an 18inch pizza. I was looking forward to getting a pizza that didn't cause stomach issues, but instead I paid nearly $30 for half the amount of pizza I was expecting.

    Thin crust pizza is spectacular. We ordered delivery and the garlic bread was a little meh by the time we got it but other than that the meal was great. Crispy crust and lots of toppings. The bbq chicken pizza was my favorite.

    Considering other reviews and the price tag, I was expecting better. Alas, that expectation always seems to get me. 18" golden child ($24) - supposed to have pepperoni, salami, sausage, bacon, black olives, and shaved parmesan on thin crust. Hubby is not a fan of thin crust, but I am, and I thought the crust was delicious except for the burnt portions. The toppings were also delicious, though I didn't see any bacon or parmesan, and wasn't sure whether the salami and pepperoni looked the same or whether I only got pepperoni. The biggest problem with this pizza was that they didn't evenly distribute the topping, so there were some bites with a fistful of black olives and a ton of sausage, but also areas where it turned into cheese pizza. It felt rushed and rookie. Other pictures show a much better pizza, so pretty disappointed here. The sauce and overall balance was great, though, so with a little more care in presentation, I would have been a happy camper. The zucchini fries were DE-licious! Not too heavy on the dough, but perfectly crispy and just right. I'd go back just for these. Not the pizza though.

    Beef sandwich

    Food and service were great! Zucchini fries, beef sandwich and pizzas all were delicious, definitely recommend!

    The bar of course!

    Not sure why I missed reviewing this place a while back. Riverwest Pizza rocks. Not sure why I don't come more often but every time I've been in, it has been an enjoyable experience. The place is put together and the outside is as nice as it is in. The patio area is actually great for summer/fall days and evenings. The service is also quality to say the least. Now to the goods. Riverwest knows how to make a spectacular pie. They also have great variety of pies and make some truly solid speciality pies. Really cool how they named the pies after famous, not so famous, Riverwest streets. I can truly say they really don't have a bad choice on the pizza menu. They also have some very good dishes aside from pizza. Food in general is on point. Kudos to the chefs! The bar is awesome and you can get some great specials during Happy Hour. Even better yet show your ID as a Riverwest resident and get a nice discount on specific days. Bonus to all things Riverwest! Also Cheers to Riverwest Pizza. Couldn't have made a better choice for location. Solid joint all around.

    Crispy brussel sprouts, yum!

    Tip: if you're in the service industry Monday is the day to go. You get half off all food and I think drinks as well (may be some exceptions to what drinks?). Also, you do need to prove where you work with a pay stub or online schedule. That being said, due to my bf's job we were able to take advantage of that and have a great meal for about $30 (including an app, a large pizza and 2 beers each). We started with the fried brussel sprouts which I thought were pretty tasty. They are a little oily and crumble apart but still had a good flavor. We ordered the Humboldt pizza (caprese). Our only complaint was that it should have more basil and we were expecting full leaves, not little shreds. Didn't really add a whole lot of flavor to the pie but the pizza is still very delicious. We split the large and had enough for leftovers. They have a pretty nice selection of tap beers and a full bar. They also run a happy hour which that night was until 7 pm. We arrived around 6:30 and the place filled up shortly after. Get there early if you want to pick your own table. The ambiance is very chill with local artwork on the walls and a nice color pallet. They did nice job with their renovations. The bartender and our server were both attentive and helpful. I highly recommend this joint and look forward to my next visit.

The staff were great - they were attentive, friendly, and overall wonderful to work with. We were able to customize our floor plan with different tables and chairs that fit our vision. The decorations and colors matched perfectly with my theme (Love is in Bloom)! They also provided a projector and screen that we used for the games. My sister made a Spotify playlist specifically for this day that they played as well! My sister and I toured the venue about a year in advance and immediately booked it; I'm so glad we did because there were multiple inquiries later on which goes to show how many people truly want their special event held here. The owner, Ahidé, was such a dream to work with during the process. She was informative, kind, and always made sure we got what we needed throughout. We ordered the brunch menu which included eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, lemon ricotta french toast, pastries, and a small parfait bar. The food was seriously 10000/10! My guests gave so many compliments on the food, the drinks, the decor, and everything in between. Ahidé even went the extra mile to customize the bar and brunch signs that matched my theme! She made sure to check on us right after the food was served and was available if we needed anything at all. Every little detail was perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better day. Thank you SO much Tauro Cocina for making my bridal shower a dream come true

    The food was great the first time I went. Not sure why it felt a little underwhelming when I went…read morethe second time maybe it was just a weird day. The risotto's are really good! Appetizers can be a little more descriptive because the bruschetta was not the regular style so definitely ask before ordering. Ambience was really nice and the service is great as well. I would recommend this place for its unique taste.

The Margherita pizza ($20) has a generous amount of fresh mozzarella and a perfect layer of sweet-leaning tomato sauce.

The tiramisu was a fantastic balance of sweet chocolate and bitter espresso. The service was slow, however it was a busy Saturday night during peak dinner rush which is to be expected.

The service was outstanding. He recommended some great options. My colleague and I ended up splitting the burrata e pomodorini salad, Doppia Calabrese pizza, and for dessert, Tartufo Gelato. The burrata e pomodorini was so fresh and seasoned beautifully. The Doppia Calabrese pizza was hot and fresh. The crust was chewy and crisp. The hot honey drizzle on the pizza was the icing on the cake, or pizza! Delicious! The Tartufo Gelato to end the meal was fantastic. It was creamy, rich and the hazelnuts gave it the crunchy texture. The ambience was pleasing. Having seats by the pizza bar and watching the magic happen was very entertaining. We will definitely be back in May when we come back for a conference. We can't wait! I would 100% recommend San Giorgio Pizzeria to everyone. Next time I go, I want to try the pasta.
