Food was solid. Drinks were fine; but a classic Negroni with small ice cubes and no orange peel is strange. But the service was awful. Our server never introduced himself; came to the table and said "do you want drinks?" Never checked on how food or drinks tasted. Never even said thanks for coming in. Hands down the least hospitable service I have had in years. read more

Ordered the mushroom pizza and added pepperoni to it - absolutely delicious! I don't know how to describe the crust of this pizza as it is like no other I've had. It maintained its wood-fired crunch but also had a fluffy inside that was decadent. Our server was adorable - very attentive and made recommendations for some local, non-touristy things to do while we were in town for the weekend. Loved this place so much, we will likely be back before we leave! read more

Serious Pie was recommended to me as one of the best pizza spots in Seattle, and I can see why people like it. We tried the Cove Clam and Mushroom pizzas, both with interesting and tasty flavor combinations. But the pizzas were much smaller than expected. They're more like a flatbread than the traditional pizza I'm used to. Portions are on the smaller side, so you may need to order a few dishes to feel full. We also tried the charcuterie board, but the salami was extremely salty and spicy for my taste. Still, I'd come back to try the different specialty pizzas. read more

I had to try some pizza while I was in Seattle. Serious pie was on my list. This probably isn't the place to go if you're looking for a classic Seattle style slice, since the pizzas here are more specialty personal pies, but the food was still really good. Started with the beef and pork meatballs, and I have to say they were amazing. Definitely one of the highlights of the meal. I also got a side of focaccia, which went well with the meatballs. For the pizzas, I tried both the fresh mozzarella and the spicy chicken sausage. Both were tasty and had their own distinct flavors, so it was nice being able to try two different varieties. read more

Came in on a thursday around 12 as a group of 5 (2 adults 3 kids) and got seated no problem. The pizza was good, but pricey. For these two pizzas it came out to a bit over $55. However the service wasn't good. After being seated it became clear the difference in energy and service everyone around us was getting. I'm not sure if the assumption was that we weren't going to tip since we were on the younger side compared to the rest of the customers or what was going on. We weren't checked on, took awhile for us to get water refills, and to get the bill. While every table near us was checked on regularly, had conversations with their server, and even those who entered after us were greeted with more energy and warmth than we did. If the assumption were that we weren't going to tip, then this was a great way to guarantee it. While the pizza was tasty, it wasn't good enough to come back for this treatment. read more

Was excited to try this place because of all the good reviews but unfortunately it was a bit disappointing. Their pizzas range from $23-29, but they are pretty small/single serve in my opinion. Usually pizzas that expensive taste more gourmet but there was nothing special about any of these pizzas. You'd probably satisfy this same craving with a slice of Costco pizza which is way cheaper. The pasta on their menu was also subpar and nothing much to rave about. Service was okay, but it took a while to flag down our servers and get them to take our orders, bring us water, and pay for the bill. Overall I think for your money, it's not too worth it to come here- especially because parking is also terrible in downtown read more

Seattle has no shortage of great food, but Serious Pie remains one of my favorite places to grab pizza downtown. The pizzas are smaller than your typical giant pie, but that's part of the appeal. The crust is thin, beautifully blistered from the wood-fired oven, and has just the right balance of chew and crispness. The toppings are creative without trying too hard, and every ingredient tastes high quality. What I love most is that Serious Pie doesn't overload the pizza. The combinations are thoughtful, letting each ingredient shine instead of burying everything under a mountain of cheese. The atmosphere is casual, energetic, and perfect for sharing a few pizzas with friends. Whether you're a Seattle local or visiting from out of town, this is one of those spots that consistently lives up to its reputation. read more

Service was terrible and a bit rude. We felt like we were bothering our server( long reddish hair, w glasses, never did say her name) asking her for lemon (which she never got to, so we asked another server) A bit of an attitude when we sent back a soggy in the middle pizza Never came back to pour our wine once. One and done here read more

The atmosphere here does a lot of warm lighting, lively energy, and the open kitchen had a buzz that makes everything feel a little more exciting. It's the kind of place where you settle in, sip something cold, and feel like the night's off to a solid start before a concert at the Moore. The salad came out looking vibrant, but the flavors didn't land. The olives took over the whole bowl, and the seasoning felt off and I couldn't pinpoint it. Fresh ingredients, such as the peas were the best by far but the balance just wasn't there. The pizza was fine, not bad, not memorable. It didn't leave you thinking about it later. The charcuterie board wasn't anything to rave about either just an average plate. Still, the vibe alone makes it a decent spot to meet up, snack, and enjoy the space! The service was great! read more

Quick lunch date decided to give Serious pie a try. Service was friendly and quick. All the staff we interacted with where helpful and welcoming. The pizza came quick and hot. I appreciated they offered parm on the side. The herb shaker on the table added a nice flavor. The restaurant shares a space with a pastry shop so make sure you enter in the correct door and wait to be seated. read more

Conveniently located across from our hotel, this cozy spot was perfect for a pre-concert meal. The staff was incredibly welcoming, and the booth was spacious and comfortable after a long morning of walking. We started with the fresh mixed greens and delicious charred Brussels sprouts. For mains, we shared two incredible pies: a savory sweet fennel sausage and pepperoni pizza, and a unique sweet-savory roasted pear, pancetta, and hot honey pizza. Service was fast, attentive, and seamless from start to finish! read more

This place is very good! We were on our way to a concert looking for a place to eat, and this came up. Service is quick and easy with friendly staff.

Serious Pie Downtown - Radiatore Pasta - Pizza Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This spot is one of our favorite spots to stop by before a show or a concert at Paramount, Moore Theater, or the Climate Pledge Arena. Its location is perfect as it is within walking distance to these popular venues. But they also have serve up some of the tastiest pizzas in town and the service is always friendly. I mean, that probably sums it up for this great spot. We especially love their Penn Cove Clams, Yukon Gold Potato, Pepperoni Pizza, and ferndale farms mozzarella. We frequently add meatballs for the pizza crust and their meatballs are great. The Charcuterie Board was also good but not the star of the show. The interior is very well decorated, clean, and family-friendly. Their bathroom is also very clean and very well maintained. read more

Serious Pie has gourmet-style pizzas with high-quality ingredients, although it's definitely on the pricier side. I tried the Sweet Fennel Sausage pizza and the Roasted Oyster Mushroom pizza. The sausage pizza had a nice flavor from the roasted peppers and provolone, but I wish it had a little bit more meat. My favorite was the mushroom pizza. The crimini mushrooms, truffle cheese, and crust worked really well together and I liked that the truffle flavor wasn't too overpowering. The restaurant has a nice, cozy vibe, and there's lots of seating inside. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're looking for a more elevated pizza experience, and I would come again! read more

I love sharing a good meal with people, but I also love a solo dinner at a bar. The service was super prompt, everything was ready quickly, and the bartender was polite, so major points for that! I ordered an Italian Paloma (a Paloma with Campari) and a clam pizza. The cocktail was so tasty. The pizza was good, but I felt like there was way too much cheese and that was all I could taste. read more

Really love how crispy their crust gets with every pizza. They season each pie with a well rounded flavor, never too much, never too little with each bite.

The best pizza in Seattle! Got the pepperoni half pizza for happy hour and it was great. Crust was fluffy and crispy. Pizza had no flop to it and the undercarriage had a nice color to it as well. Most importantly our server, Lanti was amazing! The man has great hospitality, mannerism and knowledge. He went over the menu with us and showed us some really cool menu items. Overall, the food was amazing, the ambiance was welcoming and most importantly our server, Lanti was the true star of the show. The guy deserves a promotion! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

It was an easy walk for us from the Airbnb we were staying at while visiting Seattle. On a Wednesday around 7 we were able to get a table within 5 minutes. Staff were fine, not overly attentive or not attentive enough...just the way I like it. The table itself was comfortable but a little close together for my liking. We had the house salad and it was fantastic. We shared a potato pie with added pepperoni and really enjoyed it. I had an amber ale beer that hit the spot. Prices are a bit high for what you get though ex. $16 for salad and $6 to add pepperoni to a pizza. read more

Service was good as well as the food. We were a party of 9 and we had reservations.

After hearing the buzz about Serious Pie for years, I finally had to try it out. Honestly, I had forgotten I visited here on my first trip to Seattle back in 2017! Clearly, I have grown over the years by the change in my review! So recently I've tried both take-out and dine-in, and my conclusion: take-out was a bust. The pizza just lost its magic on the ride home. The crust wasn't as crisp, and the flavors didn't pop in the same way. The experience dining in at the downtown restaurant was night and day. The smell of the fire, coupled with the busy, fast-moving environment, created a fantastic atmosphere. The real star of the show is the Penn Cove Clam Pizza. The combination of salty clams, savory pancetta, and a hint of lemon thyme on that perfectly charred crust is a truly spectacular flavor combination. This is a pizza that demands to be eaten fresh, right out of the oven, with the crust still blistered and the toppings steaming. I'm giving Serious Pie 4 out of 5 stars because it is a bit pricey, but for the dine-in experience, it's absolutely worth every penny. Just do yourself a favor and plan to dine in. read more

Usually a fan of Serious Pie, but this visit was a bit mixed. We got the mozzarella pizza and tomato soup--the soup was cozy and flavorful. The pizza crust was overly crisp this time and felt a bit off, missing that usual magic. BUT the Barbera wine totally made up for it. Smooth, bold, and paired perfectly. And the coconut pie? Total hit. Sweet, creamy, and exactly what we needed to end on a high note. Still a great spot overall--everyone has off days, even pizza places! read more

We visited Serious Pie Downtown on day one of our conference--tired, hungry, and ready to eat. The ambiance was warm, our server was cool, and the food was nice, too . We shared a few pizzas: I had the sweet fennel sausage with roasted peppers, provolone, and added pepperoni--delicious. Another favorite was the roasted mushroom with truffle cheese. One special with green beans didn't quite land, but overall, everything was tasty. Drinks were great, too. A bit pricey for pizza, but worth it in a sense for the quality and vibe. read more

I came for lunch on a Tuesday and there was no wait. We had a larger party, but the food came out pretty fast as well and the restaurant felt clean. I liked the flavor of this pizza; you could taste the herbs in the sausage and the peppers were a nice add. I would say it was a tad soggy though, I prefer a pizza that can hold its shape when you pick up a slice. read more

Finally able to get back here. I'm usually too early after my haircut downtown, I'm hungry and end up getting lunch at Dahlia Bakery. It's hard to believe I got a table here. It had just opened for lunch and there were a handful of folks seated. Hard to imagine since its sister restaurant Lola is packed. (I ate there last week about the same time. See my review). Anyway on to my lunch. I always go for the Penn cove clam and prosciutto pizza but decided to be adventurous and had the pizza special. It was brushed with olive oil, topped with Mortadella, goat cheese and pistachios. What a great combination. The flavors melded together with the crunch of the pistachios and the thin crispy crust. Just wow! . So good. I can't wait to come back. read more

Went on 04/24/2025, From the moment we walked into Serious Pie Downtown, we were impressed. The atmosphere was vibrant and full of life, yet still cozy and inviting. Even though the place was busy, the staff were incredibly personable and attentive, making us feel welcomed and well taken care of. We ordered the Yukon Gold Potato, Ferndale Farm mozzarella and the Roasted Oyster & Crimini Mushroom pizza with truffle cheese and wow, they were both out of this world! The crust was perfection crispy, chewy, and full of flavor. Each bite was a perfect balance of fresh, high-quality ingredients. We also tried their lemonades, which were light, refreshing, and a great complement to the savory pizzas. The music added to the vibe, upbeat but not too loud, allowing for easy conversation. The restaurant was spotless, and despite the crowd, everything ran smoothly. What really stood out was how reasonably priced everything was, especially for the exceptional quality and experience. Serious Pie is more than just pizza, it's a full-on culinary treat in a relaxed, feel-good setting. We can't wait to return! read more

Went here with the family and a really nice restaurant overall. The pizzas are like you would make if you had a really nice pizza stove/oven. We tried 3 different pizzas and all were really amazing. I would come back to try the others. It was a bit pricey but hey you're in downtown and the ingredients are fresh. The crust was so good that everything gets eaten.

After a long day of exploring downtown Seattle and visiting a museum, my friend and I stopped into Serious Pie on a Friday afternoon. We had dinner reservations and were seeking a snack to hold us over. We noticed that Serious Pie offered $8 half pies for happy hour so we agreed to try it out. Once inside, we were seated immediately and able to place our order. What arrived was about the size of a personal pan pizza fresh from the oven. For the price, it did the trick. My only complaint, and the reason I docked a star, is because the mozzarella on the pizza, once lifted, fell off in a solid chunk either falling on the plate and taking the rest of the ingredients with it or forcing you to handle a mouthful of hot mozzarella at once. Twas difficult to eat despite the good flavor. Wouldn't hesitate to visit and try other menu items in the future though. read more

Service from host stand through server wasn't great. Server said as few words as he could. Seemed annoyed and purely just wanted the order and to be done with us. Appetizer plates weren't cleared. New plates for dinner weren't offered. We were left scrambling to find room for the pizzas with no help to clear anything and eat off dirty plates. The food was just ok. My family is visiting from out of town and I wouldn't tell anyone to put this one on their list. read more

First time visiting this location. My friends and I were starving and didn't know what to expect, but the menu offered a variety of unique pizzas. I ordered a kale salad as my entrée, which I really enjoyed--it was excellent for my personal taste. However, the pizza itself wasn't my favorite. Our table ordered the Yukon Gold potato pizza, which I didn't particularly like; it was too carb-heavy and dry for me. We also tried the pear and pancetta pizza, but since I'm not a fan of sweet flavors in my food, it wasn't to my liking. If you're looking for a more traditional pizza joint, this isn't it. That said, the staff was friendly and attentive, which made for a pleasant dining experience overall. read more

TLDR: food was great, price point was questionable overall. First of all-- the spicy ranch has no business being that good. Not even a ranch lover but...dang. I would order that all day. Staff was great and friendly. Negroni was good...although I can't get over how they do it with the small cubes in Seattle (encountered that in many places). I will echo another review that says the mozzarella is delish but comes off in giant globs...it's like you get one round-ish per slice and it is tricky to bite through without pulling off the rest. Also, considering the $3-4 for the pepperoni, I would have expected more. Also, the spicy ranch felt crazy overpriced. read more
