Must try if you're in Seattle! The pizza is delicious and I'm still craving it!!! It's the perfect clay oven baked pizza (in my opinion!) the salad was ok, be careful for the tiny hidden if you don't like spicy read more

Solid pizza spot near downtown Seattle with great, attentive service. Folks were wonderful at answering our questions about menu items. Pizza itself was already, solid pizza but nothing to write home about. It was a tad too saucy without much depth for us but we appreciated having a cozy spot for dinner nearby read more

Great place for great pizza, nice casual vibe for a quick lunch! Very friendly waiter, helped give us some more suggestions for things to do in the area. The Sweet Fennel Sausage pizza was amazing, their sourdough pizza dough was mindblowing. If they suggest the spicy ranch to dip your pizza in, go for it, its surprisingly good! read more

Pretty busy, slightly higher end pizza place located in downtown Seattle. Pizzas here cost around $20-30 IIRC, and they are personal sized. I wasn't super impressed by the pizza taste or originality. The space inside is pretty big and cozy, I'd consider it a good place to catch up with friends or a date night. Service was quite friendly as well. read more

Great happy hour prices. $7 for a half pizza. Not super busy on a weekday during happy hour. Definitely recommend coming here for a happy hour. The mushroom pizza was my favorite. The fennel sausage was also good. The mortadella was ok but tasted kinda like a fast food meal, not a gourmet pizza. The coconut cream pie was also delicious read more

I wouldn't say this was the best pizza I've ever had, but the ingredients were top notch. I had the roasted oyster mushrooms, crimini, and truffle cheese "pie." Due to the shape and also size, this "pie" should really be considered more of a flatbread. Anyway, as a big mushroom fan, this was BIG on earthy flavors. I mean no disrespect to Serious Pie, but it reminded me of Trader Joe's mushroom and black truffle flatbread pizza found in the frozen food aisle. read more

Delicious pizza, loved the crunchy crust. Great service. Loved everything about the design of the restaurant.

Happy hour review - Happy hour here gives amazing deals, but unfortunately it takes place Monday - Friday 3-5pm, aka when I am still working in the office. Fortunately, with Presidents' Day aka day off work, this was the perfect time for me to check out! Happy hour features $7 for half pizza, which if you get 2 half pizzas aka a full order, that is just $14 compared to a full sized pizza at regular price that is often in the $20-22 range. I got 2 half pizzas and it was more than enough for a meal for me. I got the sweet fennel sausage and the penn cove clams. The pizza here is more flatbread-like, rectangular in shape, and the crust is more crunchy. The topping to crust ratio is on point, a little bit more crust though. The sweet fennel sausage one is a little overrated; the sauce makes some parts of the pizza a bit mushy, and it feels more like a combo pizza you get elsewhere with slightly more premium ingredients. The penn cove clams with pancetta was better for me, though the overall combination of ingredients make this an interesting experience (in a good way). At regular, non-happy hour, I would give this a 4 stars, but the pricing of the happy hour just is too good. Add to that, service was very attentive and this was one of my better dining experiences so far recently. read more

First meal in town. Usually my visits are great, this time it sucked. Sat at the bar, avoid this at all cost. You're practically sitting on laps of the people waiting for tables. The bartender can be too busy to acknowledge you. The pizzas are phenomenal, though. Will definitely stop by again. read more

Since we didn't want to travel the distance to get some Chicago deep dish pizza, we went to Serious Pie instead. Based on the reviews we had some high expectations. We ordered the sweet fennel sausage, which appears to be one of their more popular pizzas, and the cheese with half pepperoni. I had a beer and my wife ordered the white sangria. The pizza was just ok. I expected more flavor and maybe a little more meat out of the fennel pizza. The sauce was fairly bland, and the cheese, again, just meh. On the positive side my 13 year old enjoyed her cheese pizza and the $7 cream soda. The lager draft I ordered was pretty good, however, the white sangria my wife ordered was dry and tasted more like a cheap white wine than anything else. For a $12 drink it was a big disappointment which resulted in her leaving her drink alone and me drinking it so at least I felt I got my moneys worth. On the positive side again, the staff, from the hostess to our waitress, were very friendly and attentive. I appreciated them being helpful and doing their job with a smile. We really wanted to like this place, considering it was on Infatuation, however, tonight it just missed the mark for us. read more

I've heard a lot about Serious Pie and was excited to try it. I got the sweet fennel sausage (without peppers) and the potato pizza. I ordered take out around 4:45pm and was notified that the pizza wouldn't be ready for pick up until 6pm. At 6pm I overheard the wait for dining in was an hour to 1.5 hours. Sweet sausage pie: sausage is pretty good - tender and sweet. I wish they put more on it since it was pretty sparse. Potato pie: haven't had something like this since california pizza kitchen had it. Most of the slices of potato were soft while some were partially cooked. Nice hints of rosemary. Overall a good spot. The dough/crust is wood fired, soft yet crunchy. Pretty solid pie although it can get a little expensive. read more

We ordered the fennel sausage pie. The cheese and toppings were great, very tasty. The crust was horrible. Soggy. Staff was attentive.

As the name says...this place does indeed serve some serious pie! In addition, they also have a decent spirits/cocktails list to go with your pizza(s) of choice. As a bonus, to serve you those delicious spirits is a really fun, outgoing and knowledgeable bartender. My group asked for the bartender's recommendations for the pizza and we decided to get all 3 of her choices: the Sweet Fennel Sausage, Penn Cove Clam, and the Mushroom and Truffle Pizza. All REALLY tasty pizzas! The crust were all cooked to perfection (crispy outside and an airy inside) and the unique flavors of each pie really takes your taste buds to a journey on its own. The Sweet Fennel Sausage was my favorite with its more traditional flavor of sauce and cheese but that hint if sweet Fennel Sausage really satisfied my palette. The Penn Cove Clam was a first of its kind for me but it was also really good. The abundance of parmesan cheese and the clams paired well. And of course the truffle and mushroom I can see being a crowd favorite as well. I mean there's truffle...enough said. Sadly, I didn't get to try the Margherita Pizza but upon my next visit to Seattle I know what I have on my to-do list :) read more

The farro salad with the hot honey vinaigrette is one of the best salads I've ever had. Highly highly recommend. Great ambiance. The pizza was pretty good but not incredible. Didn't like the simple cheese. The special was decent. The fennel sausage was decent. Definitely tasted like brick over pizza. But the flavors didn't quite wow me. A lot of potential but maybe I should have gotten the Margarita? read more

Came here on a Sunday evening and it was quite busy since they were short of staff on Memorial Day weekend. Luckily I was able to find two seats at the bar instead of waiting two hours to be seated. The pizzas were good but I wouldn't say OMG they are spectacular so I would definitely give the food a 3.5 stars. read more

Had a craving for pizza one night and decided to give serious pie a shot. While the pizza was decent, it truthfully was more a flatbread than anything else. The toppings were ok and the bake was a little weird so unfortunately did not scratch the pizza itch. The server was nice and the ambience is super lax Willing to give it another shot but I'll check the pantry to see if I have the raw ingredients to make home pies first before choosing to go out for flatbread read more

We went during happy hour. We got to try 3 different pizza. Mozzarella Pizza - I feel like it needed more basil and cheese. It seemed lacking. Mushroom Pizza - it was full of mushrooms and you can definitely taste the truffle. I thought it was good, I think it would be perfect if the crust is a bit thinner. But, that's just my preference. Sausage Pizza - it was good. The sausage flavor is good as well. There is a bit of kick to it. The restaurant was not packed and we were seated right away. The place is loud and definitely good place for bar type. Our server seemed not to remember what we ordered. When he saw that our table was empty after eating our salad and have not received our pizza, he asked if we are ready for a check. It seemed kinda like he is rushing us out there. read more

Our first time at the new, more spacious location. AMBIANCE: 4.0. Airy, with good social distancing. High beamed wooden ceiling with wood floors. There is a bar with a TV along one wall. SERVICE: 4.0. Prompt greeting and seating -- after showing COVID vaccination pass. Waiter was cheerful and very knowledgeable about the old and new locations, the menu, and the adjoining bakery. Food was served in a timely manner. FOOD: 4.0. Pizza: 4.0 We had the mozzarella, basil, tomato sauce pizza with added pepperoni. - dough: 4.5. Thin, slightly crispy. Perfectly done. (We could also see one of the cooks forming the crust from a large ball of dough, throwing it in the air to spread it into a thin disk.) - toppings: 3.0. Light on the basil and mozzarella. Kale Salad: 4.0. Kale very fresh with right amount of dressing and peppers. read more

The crust is what brought us in and it didn't disappoint. We had the mozzarella pizza and mixed greens salad. Both were great!

I'm a huge Tom Douglas fan and Serious Pie is one of my favorite pizza spots. I have loved Serious Pie for several years and recommend it to all of my friends. Over the years, they've increased prices a bit but that's to be expected, especially after the pandemic. I recently made a trip and it was still as good as the first time over 8 years ago. You cannot go wrong with any pizza on the menu. There is something about their crust that has a hint of sweetness to it, is crispy and airy. I've never had another pizza quite like them. It's unfair to compare them with a Chicago deep-dish or NY-style because they're very different. One pizza is plenty for one person. I always like to share a few options with the table so everyone gets to try different pizzas. They also do happy hour with half-sized pizzas, which is fantastic for small parties who want to try more pizzas. My favorite is the mushroom and truffle cheese. The clam pizza is so unique and every time I'm surprised by how much I love it. The potato pizza is also interesting and in my experience, people either love it or hate it. We tried the special they had a few weeks ago, which had calabrian chile cream sauce, pancetta, and goat cheese. It was delicious. If you're not too adventurous, the fennel sausage and peppers pizza is a safe choice you'll love. read more

Serious Pie Downtown - Special of the day in late April 2022 - Pizza Near Me - Seattle, Washington

My friend and I split the prosciutto cotto, asparagus, spring onions, fontina, chili, and fresh basil pizza which was a great size to share. The pizza crust was light with a slight char. The pizza was light on cheese (if you prefer that) which I didn't mind but was lacking in flavor. I had to use the pizza spice which added some salt and dimension to the pizza. I would come back for the pizza crust but would personally try another pizza. We did see quite a few people dining alone so this is a good place to come as well if you're looking to do that! read more

I should've come here first instead of Rocco's. Serious Pie was SOOOO MUCH better. Some of the best pizza I've had, regardless of location. We went with the basic cheese and pepperoni. So simple but so good with high quality ingredients all the way around - sauce, cheese and pepperoni. The crust was awesome too. Crispy with just the right amount of chew. I legit couldn't find anything to quibble over. Highly recommend! read more

The perfect place for a great happy hour! I came by with a friend yesterday, and we were seated pretty quickly as it was the middle of the day. Our server was extremely friendly and started us off with waters. He answered all my questions about the happy hour deals. We both got the half pizzas from the HH menu - my friend got the Yukon gold potato one, while I got the mushroom and truffle cheese. Let me just say how hard it was to chat with the food, because it was so good. Every bite was so flavorful. The pizza was soft, yet crispy, and not too greasy. However, the crust was a bit tough and unseasoned, and I ended up leaving those out. We then split the chocolate budino. Although it was delicious, it was definitely small and not quite worth the price. I would recommend getting it for a special occasion, but not a regular dessert. Overall, I had a really great time and would absolutely be back! I can't wait to try the rest of the pizzas! read more

This place is stupid good. I'm not a huge pizza fan but wanted to come here to try the unique pizzas. We got the fennel and potato pizzas, and wow, both were amazing for different reasons. I will say these are more reminiscent of flatbreads but I really enjoyed the flavor of toppings and crust. The fennel was savory, spiced, and the right kind of greasy. The potato pizza was herbaceous and creamy. We expected to take some home but we ended up devouring all of it! The coconut cream pie was also very unctuous and rich. The code for the bathroom is 2583. read more

I did like the pizza pie they made me here, but I loved the Kale Salad even better! I had the sweet fennel sausage, roasted peppers, and provolone pizza, and the Marinated Lacinato Kale, Parmesan, Calabrian chilies, and pine nuts for dinner. The salad was outstanding. The Lacinato kale tasty and offered an easy eating texture. The light marinade allowed the Parmesan cheese to adhere to the kale which made every bite that much more wonderful. Adding "roasted" pine nuts is good almost any salad, and they certainly excelled here. They nutty, slightly oily, had a good bite, and picked up extra flavor from the roasting. The sweet fennel sausage was vert good. The fennel sausage shined here and definitely was the star of the pizza with its porky goodness, subtle sweetness, and great fennel flavor. I did feel that the pizza needed more cheese but also more time in the wood oven to melt down properly and bubble up a bit. The sauce was flavorful, the crust had a good crunch and chew, and the roasted peppers perfect. Service was upbeat and personal. read more

I've had the pizza from Serious Pie on many occasions, though almost exclusively as take out versus dine in. I like all of their pizzas - roasted oyster mushrooms, crimini, truffle cheese is probably my favorite followed by sweet fennel sausage, roasted peppers, provolone. The crust is perfectly baked with the right level of char, crunchiness, and dough. read more

Definitely want to call ahead to make a reservation. The food is great but hungrily waiting 40 to 50 minutes could easily make anyone hangry! Came here for dinner on a Friday and the house was pretty crowded. Our party of three waited around 45 minutes. All the staff were very informative and happy to explain and give recommendations. Our table decided sampling two pizzas and a salad. The salad was light and refreshing giving us some needed greens. We ordered the margherita pizza and added pepperoni and the truffle mushroom pizza. While the margherita was yummy the truffle mushroom was the star of the show. Great truffle flavor that did not overpower the taste of the mushrooms. And the mushrooms were meaty and abundant on the pizza. Phenomenal crust, light and had good flavor both tasty and sturdy. No floppy crusts here. read more

My husband and I ordered the Roasted Seasonal Mushrooms with Truffle Cheese (3.5 stars). We added pepperoni to the Ferndale Mozzarella, Tomato Sauce, and Basil (2 stars). We have had better versions of these pizzas with the same toppings. The pizzas were thin that held the toppings well. I thought the edges were too crispy and seemed dry. I always finish my pizza crust, and I didn't this time. I ordered the Independent Semi Dry Barlett Cider (4 stars), and my husband ordered the Holy Mountain White Lodge White Ale (4 stars). The service (5 stars) was excellent as our server was very nice and attentive. I was expecting more based on the number of rave reviews that I wished the pizzas were as great as the service. read more

Delicious thin crust pizza with amazing flavor. The sweet fennel sausage pizza has hearty red sauce and is filling (I ate it all myself) while managing to be light because of the way the crust is made. The only thing I will warn is that the wait for the kitchen took 20-30 minutes. Place was crowded on a Saturday lunch but I managed to get bar seating immediately. Definitely recommend and would come back. read more

Yum! I came here on a Friday night around 7PM and was informed the wait would be 45min - 1 hr. I definitely wish they had seats outside for waiting customers since we basically had to stand a whole hour:( There were about 4 or 5 chairs inside though, but demand greater than supply! We got seated around 50 minutes later and was excited to order. We ordered a salad to start and two pizzas to share between the three of us. The salad was small and maybe a bit ridiculous to share with three people, but came with a nice serving of fresh parmagiano. I believe we ordered the mixed greens salad with radish and cucumbers. It was affordable around $10 but not enough add-ons to the salad for it to be particularly enjoyable. Still, a good healthy alternative to the rest of meal. We ordered the simple margherita pizza and added pepperoni to it along with the mushroom and truffle cheese pizza. The mushroom/truffle pizza stole the show for sure! The truffle cheese was served in big dollops that exploded with flavor in your mouth. There was plenty of mushrooms that just complimented the truffle amazingly. The margherita pepperoni pizza was good, but nothing special. I also asked for a side of parmesan (huge cheese lover, can never get enough) and was pleasantly surprised at the fresh shavings. Overall, I enjoyed my time at Serious Pie! If you were to come here, I would recommend the mushroom and truffle pizza for sure. read more

A solid spot for wood-fired pizza. Although my friends and I had to wait for an hour before getting seated (we just wandered around the area to kill time), the wait was worth it. The dough itself was nicely charred on the outside and chewy on the inside. The oyster mushroom pizza had a nice truffle aroma and the sausage pizza had a good spicy kick. You can ask the servers for additional parmesan cheese and red pepper chili flakes to sprinkle more. My only qualm is that the cooks should probably have distributed the ingredients more evenly and sliced the pie in more equal proportions. For dessert, we had a slice of the triple coconut cream pie from the adjacent bakery. Totally worth the calories and a perfect way to end the meal. read more

This pizza place is beyond words! Absolutely WOW! It's hands down the best pizza spot I've visited in the last 10 years, no exaggeration! The crust is incredibly thin and light, just perfect. You'll definitely want one pizza per person here! My boyfriend and I couldn't resist trying three pizzas, and while we couldn't finish the third one, we happily took it to go. That's how amazing this pizza is! Our server, David, was fantastic--very polite and provided detailed descriptions of the food options. A really nice guy! Thank you!

I'm torn on this review because I've been a big fan of their pizza but this time I was a little underwhelmed. We hadn't been since they expanded into the old Dahlia Lounge space, and the new digs have a nice open feel to it and a nicer casual vibe. We started with the kale salad, which was huge but a little bland. I remember loving this salad before so I was surprised. We ordered the mushroom and sweet fennel sausage pizzas. The crust was good as usual, but both pizzas tasted a little bland. I took a pizza making class at their old location and they used finishing salt on all the pizzas, which was delicious. It seems like they're not using as much so the pizzas didn't blow me away as usual. Service was consistent and polite but the pizza was a little disappointing. I don't know that I'd go back. read more

This was one of the first places I dined in Seattle, and it remains in my top 10. As someone who can't eat most meats, I found this menu to be very limited for vegetarians. I was almost forced to get the basic mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil pizza as the rest contained meat. Update: looking at the menu now, I see they have added more variety, and this is no longer an issue! Although I wasn't thrilled about ordering such a basic pizza, it was DELICIOUS! The pizza was like nothing I've had before, which a thick but soft but crunchy texture (how??). The sauce was flavorful and seasoned perfectly. I'm giving it a 4 vs 5 because I felt they lack consistency. Other times I've come to get the same pizza, it was extremely burnt / over cooked. Regardless, I'd still come here time and time again for this pizza, and now I'm looking forward to trying more items on the menu! read more
