Called three minutes before closing and was greeted with the most friendly person. Ordered two pizzas, the margarita and the all meat.....both were phenomenal. The crust was perfect, crispy but chewy. Sooooo good! Highly recommend ordering and heading over for some cider down the road. read more

Oh, what great pizza we had at Serious Pizza Plus! We were trying to figure out what to get and decided to get the lunch special in which was a 8" pizza and a salad. I got the Vegetarian Pizza while Steve got the Goat Cheese pizza. We had a nice salad that tasted great as it was very fresh tasting and the dressing that went along with it made it all the better. My pizza was so good! Very, very fresh and the crust was excellent! All of the toppings were flavorful and with a dash of red pepper flakes that made the pizza all the more alluring. I will definitely be making a return trip here whenever in the area! read more

I'll be up front we chose serious pizza because of the reviews. They were right. This was great pizza. The staff hustled and it was a relaxed vibe. We had a cheese a pepperoni and a meet lovers all of them were great. As a not it's a solid 15" pizza and I would suggest going with that as the other option 8" is pretty small. Next time we are in town we will be back. read more

Food was great. Pizza is a thin crust. We ordered the meat lovers and cheese bread. Service was excellent. We had a big party and we were accommodated perfectly. They have inside and outside seating. Dogs allowed outside with a leash on. Gave the kids room to run a muck. read more

One chance to make a good impression and sadly that didn't happen. We planned on eating here while in the area-camping at Cape Disappointment. I hate giving bad reviews, but... I saw online their are closed Monday-Tuesdays. Perfect as we wouldn't be at camp until Wednesday. We had looked at the menu ahead of time and was going to order the lunch special (salad, pizza and a beverage starting at $20) and the great reviews. Wednesday arrived and we should have turned around and walked out when there was no salad/lunch special, (didn't have time to prep due to Tsunami warning Tuesday night- their normal night off) can not fault anyone for wanting to be safe and make sure their home is safe. We support small businesses and safety! No lunch special-okay we'll just have a pizza. We placed our order for the pizza and then we sat down and saw how the dirty the place was - none of the tables were clean and I asked to use the restroom and it was out of service...they would have been better off staying closed another day or two to get things in order. Server was nice. Pizza was average. read more

Came here after seeing reviews and such. And hearing some about it in the community. Out of things and or/not prepared in the middle of the day.. I won't even dock them for that. Because I get it. Some days are just not perfect. The cook/waitress seems nice. Good little pizza restaurant feel, it's a bit cold in here though and I got a coat medium sized coat on. A child on the table next to me brought up an interesting point , no Parmesan cheese at the table , but again I don't really care about that either. Lots of typing before the food haha. Anticipation The pizza is great, but this is like fancy food kind of scam. Get good food and stupidly small portions for a high price. If you want something a slightly gourmet and a delicacy, give it a try, but if you like value, not the right place. Chicos happy hour deal blows this out of the park. read more

We love Neapolitan style pizza and find it hard to find good places for it, but not today!! Serious Pizza makes awesome Neapolitan Pizza and if you're looking for good pie, this is the place. We came to Ilwaco for the King Waves and just happened across Serious Pie on National Pizza. Staff was fun and informative. Store was clean and comfortable Pizza came out fast, hot and delicious. read more

On our first attempt at ordering, we were informed that they were out of several items. This was a Saturday, in the middle of a holiday weekend. Fine. Poor planning on their part, but no big deal. We regrouped and tried a second time with more success, a hawaiian, a chicken pesto, and a bbq chicken. Our group chose a table on the patio, where we were promptly scolded for raising an umbrella without asking. The server was curt and obviously tired of being there. Okay. We rolled with it. The patio was nice. Service was slow, and they ruined the one of our pizzas. They had to remake it, so that one took an extra long time. Accidents happen. We waited patiently. Finally, our food arrived. The pizzas were $35 each and we love thin crist, but WOW. The toppings were scarce, very stingy, and the chicken was old and dry. So dry it had the texture of jerky, and sadly, it was on two of our pizzas. It was BAD. Part of our bbq chicken pizza was literally naked without a thing on it, not even sauce. The hawaiian was the best of the bunch, but all three pizzas were awful. Our group spent over $100 here and the food was downright terrible. We won't be returning. read more

We were at a loss as to where can we get a good pizza. Been here 2 years and dissatisfied with the pizza stores. When we see you open we had to try. We had the pizza and both of us said while chewing, Finally we got it. Good people and great pizza. Mind you we are from Long Island,N Y. and Detroit, Michigan, so we have had the best. Congratulations read more

I just don't like their pizza. They are also opposed to extra parmesan even if you psy for it.

I hadn't read too much about this place, only that it got good reviews and that it served pizza. So I kind of had it my mind that we'd be eating at a gorgeous PNW gastro-pub pizza place with lots of local beer on tap, a real cool vibe, and some great pizza. Well, it's not that. With the fantasy vision cleared away by the real basic ambience around us we sat down and got the menu. Strike two: prices. Oh my! This is not your Papa Murphy price sheet. But, ok, it was fresh pizza to order and we saw along the wall cases and cases of canned Italian tomatoes. Not canned sauce or frozen crust so, hey, it's not cheap to make good pizza, I guess. I'm half expecting strike three to come along. In fairly short order, the pizza arrives and crack! Out. Of. The. Park! Wow, I couldn't even bring myself to mark the stars down for the missing tap bar and polished wood railings, the pizza totally covered all the bases. I've already recommended it several times and looking forward to going back. It's really a simple flowchart: Do you like pizza? Yes: go here. No: Do you want to like pizza? Yes: Go here. No: Search for a restaurant without pizza in its name! read more

Serious Pizza Plus - Hawaiian Pizza. Looking at it now I wish I could eat it all over again. - Pizza Near Me - Ilwaco, Washington

Unfortunately, didn't have a great experience here. The gluten free pizza was not very good. The crust was bland and too thick. Didn't seemed to be cooked towards the center. Husband and son got a regular pizza and they too said the crust was bland and the pizza overall was average. The service wasn't bad just impersonal. read more

This is seriously good pizza. Crust was perfectly crispy without being overdone. Wonderful flavors. Price is to be expected since it's dine in and not the fast food pizza chain. The owners are personable and friendly. We'll definitely be back when in the area. read more

Serious Pizza Plus - Half chicken pesto, half skookum. - Pizza Near Me - Ilwaco, Washington

You say you want a pizza that is chewy... yet with a bit of a crunch? Something a bit creative but not straying from its Neapolitan roots? This IS the place. I had the Boreas with added gorgonzola. The one with garlic/parm oil, sun dried tomatoes, mozzarella & thin slices of crunchi-licious pepperoni (is that a word?). I kept dreaming about having another Boreas & returned 2 days later. Granted an 8" isn't a lot of pizza for $20, + tipping the chef of course... but for one Senior its plenty filling... and quite frankly I have no trouble paying more for what I think is one of the best pizza experiences I have had in a LONG time. Did I mention the guy making these pizza's proudly states he was one of those skeptical New Yorker 'pizza experts' when he 1st visited Serious Pizza; now he's back in the kitchen making these?! That is no surprise considering the SERIOUS PIZZA name.. Did I mention the homemade vanilla ice cream? Or that they stock several of the new & creative Ilwaco Cider Co blends? She did mention they make a weekly run to Kirkland for the Cas Cioppo Italian sausage for the sausage pizza. These people are discriminating pizza-teurs. News Flash: I will be getting the Cas Cioppo Italian sausage pizza next. read more

Pizza was fantastic - key is a great crust and they have it. Caprese salad was so so. I'd definitely get pizza there again!

Omg I can't say enough about this place, the best most unique and yummy pizza I've had in a hot minute. Plus the service is amazing, the cashier slash pizza maker extraordinaire was super helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely be back to try the other flavors it's worth the drive. It's a bit of a wait because it can get super busy. read more

Seriously! Great pizza! Amber was doing it all. For a Thursday night she had walk-ins, online orders coming nonstop. We were told the wait would be 30 minutes which was fine with us as we were able to check our emails, etc. We ordered 1/2 Boreas and 1/2 meat lovers. It tasted so fresh and delicious. The quality of the pizza is so worth the cost. Why eat junk? The crust was thin but not floppy, excellently cooked. Be sure to wear a coat, the place is a little cold. The atmosphere here was typical for a pizza place. I'm there for the food not decor. We will be back when in the area. read more

I know that with this my last 2 pizza reviews are 5s from someone who normally thinks pizza is meh. Alright but not special. Serious pizza is seriously special. I ordered to go for me and my daughter after a day at the beach so not a review of the dining. The pie however was nearly perfect. Sudo NY style with a sauce that has the sweetness of the tomatoes but not sugary at all. Best thing they do 1/2 style so can't narrow it down to one no problem. We did the Skookum with their homemade chicken-pork sausage and basil. Could have used a little more sausage but still delicious through and through. The other half was the truffle Bianco- seriously pecorino Romano, garlic and truffles what else do you need to know. Actually 2 more things to know (1) This place is popular and they time it on a schedule so call or go in early to order. (2) If taking out take them up on their suggestion of half baking. When get home 425 deg for 6 minutes and perfect hot pizza awaits you. I only wish I took the minute to pause and take a picture read more

Use to be great! No brick oven anymore... Owner change seems to have had negative impact. I wish I could rave because it was our favorite on this side of the river, not anymore, go to Chicos or the Long Beach Tavern. read more

For $50 we got a large half and half vegan pizza with two Capris Suns and one Blue Moon. It was hard to eat because it was so thin and soggy. The vegetables tasted canned, imo. I've worked with pizza places and this really doesn't make any kind of high mark. Service and atmosphere were pleasant. read more

Excellent Pizza. Ordered online and the site indicated that pizza would be ready at 6:05 and at 6:05 it was coming out of the oven. Loved the flavors and had no leftovers. read more

The toppings taste good, but $33 for a bbq chicken pizza, with crust as chewy and flavorless as cardboard and only a little of the bbq sauce at the end, not worth it. Sad excuse of a yum-yum disk :( read more

I'm perplexed by the high scores. Our review is for take out only. Maybe our experience was a fluke. We like thin crust, but it was extra chewy. It was expensive for the amount of toppings and size. We added our own toppings and spices to spruce it up and baked it a little longer to take away some of the chewiness. read more

Worse pizza I ever ate, and expensive! The crust bottom was cooked, but the rest of the pizza was uncooked and doughy. Very thin and soggy. And two pizzas were over $70. Yikes. I honestly do not understand the positive reviews here. Thought the new owners would have something better than the old owner. No more coming here. read more

So I have searched all over our area for good pizza. I'm italian from back east, and let me tell you, I know pizza. I came into this establishment with low expectations, mainly because I've been disappointed every time I've ordered pizza around here. I ordered one large pepperoni pizza on a day they were having a special. The pizza itself is thin, and to my great shock, it was actually very good. I dare to say it's the best I've had on the coast so far! The sauce was savory, the toppings were real, and overall, it was less greasy than what I'd normally find. Places like Fultanos are good, but this place reminded me of what pizza is like on the East Coast. It was somewhat expensive for the size at hand, but I suspect that's because of high-quality ingredients. I'll definitely be back. read more

Amazing chicken can get half baked there online menu is easy to function and place the order correctly

Great pizza, really fabulous! We go there whenever we can. It's authentic thin crust Italian pizza, made with imported Italian flour.

Pizza without COVID risk. Great tasting, thin crust pizza, hot from oven to paddle to box. Non contact. Pay by phone, pick up hot and fresh at the outdoor kiosk when he brings it out. Non contact. No close quarters. Food workers (mask and gloves) and you protected. Delicious, and SMART pizza, the way I like it. Eat well, stay well. Update: Sadly, they have closed for the season. read more

Excellent service, comfy atmosphere, and the Calzones are to die for! Their wide range of flavorful pizzas will please any pallet, including Vegetarian options. Their crusts are the perfect thickness and the toppings absolutely delicious! These people go the extra mile, and I highly recommend Serious Pizza!!! read more

First time trying this restaurant. We've passed by several times but often it's been closed. We had a chance to try the pizza and it was very good! We loved the crust, it's thin and crispy on the edge, little chewy. Sauce is full of deep flavor, cheese is classic and delicious. We were originally going to order two 8in and the owner let us know that for a little more, we could size up to a large and get a better deal. We went for it. Ordered half meat lovers, have chicken sausage. We are totally looking forward to coming back. There is a long wait, but we didn't mind. There's an option to call ahead too. read more

Stopped by for lunch with a group of 9 people. This place has plenty of seating both inside and outside and we did not have to wait at all. We ordered Hawaiian pizza, margarita pizza, pepperoni pizza and a salad. Absolutely loved everything! I really enjoyed the crust the most! Yes, I agree with the others regarding the prices. It is more on the expensive side. But if your enjoying a nice getaway in the area I would definitely suggest stopping by. read more

This place was phenomenal! Absolutely delicious pizza (Like REALLY GOOD) and incredible service! Continually brought our water and were so patient and kind even though it was close to closing. Perfect end to our day. Will be coming back for sure! read more

Thankyou to the crew at Serious Pizza. Stopped in with our Corvette Club and had great service and the Pizza was amazing

Seriously overpriced and overrated! One MINI gluten free and one 15inch burnt crust and thin not cooked all the way pizza for $60.00. Will never be back and do not recommend wasting your money here. read more

We were visiting Long Beach on our vacation and our concierge recommended Serious pizza. He said if we were willing to drive down to Ilwaco we would not be disappointed, and we werent. It was a Sunday evening and we arrived around 5:30pm (note: they're closed Mondays and Tuesdays). The place is rather small, nothing "special" about the look or the interior. There were two groups already eating and another waiting to order. Signs were up saying to seat ourselves and to come order when we were ready. So we did. We reviewed the menu and actually had a difficult time choosing. There were several that were appealing to us. Several that were simple, several that were adventurous. When we where to place our order were were reminded there were only two sizes: 9" and 15". We were also informed the 15" pizzas theybare more than happy to customize. We decided on the meat lovers, with half no mushrooms (cuz mushrooms are icky) and an appetizer of mozzarella sticks. We each also got an adult beverage. $46 not counting tax. We knew in advance the wait would be a bit, as this was wood fired pizza. We waited about 13 min for our mozzarella sticks with the pizza arriving approximately 10 min later. The mozzarella sticks were homemade, but needed a bit more seasoning on the breading. However the homemade marinara was delicious. The pizza was a thinner crust, which we loved and served with fresh parm on top. The sauce was divine. The meat was clearly high quality and not greasy as the pizza itself wasn't. The flavors were on point a.d it left us wanting more, even though we were full and only ate half of the pizza. It was clear everything at Serious Pizza is fresh and homemade. You're clearly not getting anything from a package. It was also clear the owner and his wife were running the place that night. He is a delight. He knew were were not locals and he kept giving us tips as to where the speed traps were and where the least expensive gas was. Serious was really seriously good pizza. Since we're at the beginning of our vacation I'm pretty confident we'll be going back. read more

Serious Pizza Plus - Meat lovers, half no mushrooms - Pizza Near Me - Ilwaco, Washington

Its pretty good, the crust is way too dense our jaws hurt from chewing, not Neapolitan at all. Ingredients seemed to be good quality but were scant for the ridiculous price point. The ambiance is not at all. Counter server was friendly but told us it would be 20-25 min it took 45 minutes (they had 3 customers) This spot has loads of potential I see it totally being able to have a hip "Roberta's" vibe but instead it seems like whoever is running it is more of a hobby haver than a professional. The potential is there but the vibe is off, the crust a jaw work out, no beer, no music, too pricey for decent pizza. read more
