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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Great Za! I'm sometimes amazed at the quality of the restaurants out on the Long Beach peninsula. I hate to admit it, but I wasn't expecting a pizzeria of this quality to be out on the WA coast. Serious Pizza makes an incredible product, using a wood-fired oven. The crust is always perfect, and the individual ingredients are superior. They even import their flour - Caputo Tipo 00 white flour - from Italy! You simply won't find a better pizza on the peninsula. We almost always get the Meat Lover's pizza, with tomato sauce, mozzarella, Canadian bacon, sausage, pepperoni, olives, onion, and fresh mushrooms. Yes, fresh mushrooms! Not canned mushrooms, like you're going to find on most of the other pizzas in and around Long Beach. Is the pizza expensive? If you compare it to Pizza Hut or Domino's, possibly. But the quality of ingredients, crust and taste aren't even in the same ball park as those chain pizza places. More importantly, those options aren't available on the peninsula. So, is the pizza expensive? If you compare it to the other pizza options in and around Long Beach, absolutely not! Go to Serious Pizza in Ilwaco and enjoy a really high-quality pizza. And while you're there, enjoy some great beer and wine. They normally have Fort George Brewery's Cavatica Stout on hand. read more

Serious Pizza Plus - Large 1/2 Meat Lover's and 1/2 something else (with basil). - 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

Very friendly, reasonably quick, nice choices of pizza and salads and sandwiches. Our group of 8 shared 2 large pizzas and 2 large salads. Everything was ok, but nothing special. Pizzas needed some Italian seasoning or something. We did have vegetarian pizzas, but we've had better ones elsewhere. They tasted healthy! read more

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

Stopped here for pizza on our way to Long Beach and it was delicious! Had the Hawaiian & Skookum pizza and the kids ate it up! Great customer service and will come back again soon! read more

This pizza is Seriously Delicious! Woodfired - Neapolitan style and so much flavor. You choices are outstanding, from 13 meat choices, vegan, vegetarian, shrimp and gluten free options. Lots of choices and so tasty. Being one of the few thriving restaurants in Ilwaco means they are at times very busy. Order take out if needed you will not regret it. Credit, debit and Apple Pay are accepted yet not AMEX. read more

It's a cold rainy night and pizza sounded delicious! Serious Pizza is the real deal! Great crust, pure ingredients and fantastic taste! Easy to order. High recommendation read more

We stopped for a slight squall to pass and by default we ended here. What a cool gem to find in this little town. The refreshments for us were light this time - just drinks as we have many more miles to pedal. They have a great selection of local craft beer and wine. Mix in the National brands for options. My coffee was a local fresh roast. They use French press for a smooth rich cuppa whenever you drop by. Their food options included vegan friendly too. While I am plant-based the grilled veggie sandwich was a tempting site on the menu. When you drive thru Illwaco make sure you stop in for knowledge and friendly service with a cool vibe for both their indoor and outdoor seating. The place I bicycle friendly and the outdoor space is pet friendly too! read more

Really good pizza. Stopped at the end of the day after visiting the state park. Staff was friendly and the time we had to wait was as expected for fresh pizza. The crust was really good, thin but not too thin and chewy in a good way. Quite the selection on the menu, we went with the shrimp pesto and it was worth the $33 for a large. Side note, it was even better cold! They have napkins and little containers of red pepper flakes for to go orders which was nice too. Looked like a fair wine/beer selection was available, as well as the regular soft drinks you would expect. read more

If you are near Long Beach, WA, come here for pizza. Do not pass "Go" and head directly here. The pizza is fantastic! We heard how good this place was and canceled reservations at another restaurant to come try this out. We were not disappointed. To top it all off, the owner is the nicest guy you will ever meet. If you are looking for pizza, this is worth checking out. read more

Driving out of the Long Beach peninsula and saw Serious Pizza. We had driven by multiple times and they had been closed. They were open so we took advantage of the opportunity. We were not disappointed. The crust of the pizza was so good! Excellent ingredients and worth even the drive from Astoria to get it to go. By far the best pizza in the whole area. We ordered the Skookum which was awesome! We love the brick fired pizza and the Parmesan olive oil sauce. I believe it was the manager bringing the pizzas out to the cars as it was takeout only during COVID. I went up to get our pizza and he asked if we drank beer or soda and he got us a couple bottles of beer to take home on the house. Very nice gesture and very appreciated. First time we have been here and very happy we decided to stop by. We will be back again and again! Looking forward to trying the other choices on the menu! read more

This business is all about serious pizza. You order online and pick up. It's fresh, consistently good, and stone oven baked. The zucchini boats are a great alternative for gluten sensitive folks, and they have gluten free dough, as well. Not for last minute planners in summer, though. Plan ahead and enjoy! read more

We got a great pizza here. Nice thin crust, good salt and texture of the crust. Toppings were solid. I wish I could have talked my kids into getting the shrimp pizza but alas no dice. The Cannolli are divine, perfectly crisp outside and creamy inside. read more

This pizza and more spot in Ilwaco is a rare jewel, in the very best way. You must make a visit for yourself to see why.

The pizza is mediocre. Dough is burnt on the edges and gooey in the center. The day I went the person attending the cash register was rude.

Delicious pizza, awesome vibes, and super friendly service! The specialty pizzas give some real unique and delicious options (I went for the Cape "D"), the music was everything my millennial heart could desire, and I'm already plotting which pizza to try on my next visit. Looking forward to it! read more

We went here with a youth group after zip lining about 30 mins away. We chose here bc they had a gluten free option which one of our youth needed. The owner was friendly and helpful. The pizza came out hot one after the other. The Hawaiian was the clear favorite although the pepperoni was also very good. I liked the thin style crust, very New York style. It was delicious. read more

Absolutely delicious thin crust pizza, tons of flavor and super fresh. We will be back for sure!!

Great pizza. Crust was exceptional and exactly what I was craving. Service was also great. Would definitely recommend if in the Ilwaco area.

Seriously good pizza plus awesome service! The folks at Serious Pizza are nice and friendly, and the pizza is some of the best you'll get for miles and miles. Note that this is a small kitchen and big orders can take extra time -- the wait is well worth it! read more

This was really great pizza. It seemed like it was all handmade. We thought it was a little expensive at first, but the value was definitely there. It was very clean with nice restroom. The staff was so nice and personable. We were able to eat on the patio with our dogs, which was great because we were traveling and it was a little too warm to leave them in the truck. Highly recommend! read more

Came across this pizza joint while staying at the state park. Great pizza, nice casual dining. Will def return on future visits. We loved the pizza so much that we got a second one "to go" for later! read more

We called around looking for a gluten free option, they had gluten free options and I was so impressed with them.. the service was out standing, the pizza is all made in house and made with pride. It truly is a craft for these folks. Highly recommend if you are looking for true gluten free food that taste great. You won't be sorry. read more

Fantastic Pizza! I was very impressed with the flavor and quality. I would never have expected something this good to be in a town I have always considered a fishing community. I would put this pizza up against any I've had in Portland. When it comes to the table it appears to be a ho hum kinda pie but after you take your first bite you know better. It is our new stop anytime we visit Ilwacco or are passing thru on our way to Long Beach. Kind people, great pizza, nice vibe. What more could you ask for? read more

Having lived on Long Island, NY for thirty year, I can be a pizza snob. Tonight I tried Serious Pizza for the first time. We ordered the 15" meat lover's pie to go, they had just pulled it from the oven when I walked in. Driving home I really wanted to stop and just try one bite as it smelled delicious. My husband and I were thrilled to have found an east coast tasting pizza on the west coast. Crust was thin and crisp, as it should be; sauce not over powering and seasoning spot on. Enough meat, mushrooms, onions an cheese to make me one happy lady! Thanks for doing a great pizza, I am looking forward to trying you calzones next. read more

3 stars for slow service and overpriced food. . ORDER AHEAD - I called on a Friday around 4:50pm. When asked what time I would like to pick up my order, I said 5:30pm. When I got to the counter around 5:40pm, I was told it would be a few minutes.... ok.... They didn't put my 2 pizzas in the oven until a few minutes after I asked for my order. . I had a hangry kid at home, and was very displeased that my order wasn't ready to go. Also, 2 large pizzas and a large salad cost $75 - that's crazy! Big city prices in a small town! read more

We showed up at 6:45 with a large party and the employees were so kind and welcoming (thank you Amber!) even though it was close to closing time. We ordered a cheese pizza, garden pizza, meat lovers pizza and a chicken bacon ranch pizza. All of them were so delicious! And we loved the thin crispy crust on all of them. We will definitely be back! read more

Serious pizza!!! It's in the name. This is a Neapolitan pizza. This pie is just that, delicious, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. If your in this area this is a place you must try. The owners personal touch and his amazing service makes this pizza place like no other. The chef that makes the pies without a doubt is the major talent behind the show. I highly recommend this place. read more

The pizza was excellent made with fresh ingredients, tons of flavor, and server with a friendly smile. Their Italian sausage has a great sweet fennel flavor, and the crust thin but held up well to the toppings. If you are passing through, give it a go, it will be the best pizza within a 30 mile radius. read more

Jim & Chi, not only do you have the best pizza outside of Portland, your employee Heather really embodies your customer service culture. She is a fantastic human. Just another of the 100 reasons I'll drive 40 minutes to pick up one of your pizzas. read more

Loved the pizza from here. Thin crust, but still crunchy on bottom, not soggy. Clean restaurant and outdoor seating. Looking forward to trying more of their pizzas. read more

Got the pizza took it home and then realized how burnt It was, we've had this place before and the pizza didn't look like that. Went in to get a refund and they had attitude, and was telling me that's how a wood stove pizza looks like. Lol no, when the pizza is black there's an issue. The bread sticks were good, when It's a busy day in town they don't care how they cook the pizza. Until they do it to a local. read more
