Best

I've been going to Escape since I was 12 and now I am taking my kids there. It's a Friday night family tradition...we love it!

Worst

I tell my girlfriend we gotta go down to NW Portland thinking she might appreciate the ambience. Its the summer and all. I tell her about this great pizza place she's gotta try. ...

You decide 8/19/2005

Good luck in finding consensus about pizza. Thin, thick, deep dish, there's just too many variations, but if you like thin and crispy, this venue on busy NW 23rd is good enough, considering which coast you're on. Those from the Northeast probably won't go for it, but if you're not, you won't know any better. more

The best, but one irritating flaw... 8/17/2005

Since I was a kid, this has been my favorite pizza place. For the most part, I've never had a bad pizza here. There was one time though, where the cheese was really stretchy and weird, but other than that, this is the best pizza place in Oregon. The dough is perfect, and the sauce isn't plain tasting, something I don't like on pizza. The cheese, when it's not stretchy, is greasy but it's delicious. Forget Pizza Hut and Domino's, Escape From New York is where it's at! Now, this might not bother you, but it does me. They tend to set the pizzas that are on done on top of their garbage can. It's in the box of course, but I honestly don't think any health inspector would say that's ok. Besides that though, they make the best pizza.... they just need to stop using their garbage can as a counter. more

Best Pizza in Portland 8/16/2005

In my opinion this is the best pizza in Portland. The sauce is perfect. The dough is perfect. The cheese pizza is a little oily, but if you splotch it with some napkins, its all good. This place has a nice funky feel inside. There is a lot of counter space to eat and just a few booths. This is New York Style Pizza, in case you didn't get it. If you get a pizza to go, be careful. I've had bad experience getting a whole vegi pizza. By the time it gets home, the pizza is steamed and soggy. I've never had a problem with an entire pie of cheese, or if I buy the veggie slices individually. more
