I went yesterday for dinner and was delighted and disappointed at the same time. I was very impressed with the service considering how busy it was there. We got there and there was a long wait, gave our cell number so that we could walk to pacific place mall. We got a call early saying that a table opened up, we headed back and were seated immediately. Our waiter Chris was friendly and easy going. Very casual atmosphere. I do need to state, there is communal seating. I dont mind but it may be uncomfortable for others. Youre seated on high tables and seats are rather close to each other. Pizza always takes a long time to make so i expected a long wait for my pizza, but suprising it didnt take that long for us. But it did seem to take long for other people. Lots of people wondering where their pizza was... I had the roasted chanterelles and my boyfriend had the cherry bomb and fennel sausage. Surprisingly, it was just average. I guess i was expecting something more from an iron chef winner :) Not really that gourmet. Mine was very rich and cheesy, my boyfriends didnt have much cheese at all. He seemed to like his pizza though. i did hear (since you sit right next people) that they werent to happy with the mozzarella, but the lady next to me really liked the chanterelle pizza. Another couple recommended to us the morel pizza. As we were leaving, the staff thanked us for coming and were extremely pleasant. Kudos to Tom Douglas for hiring top notch staff. As for his pizza, I am hoping that he comes up with some better creations and maybe incorporating whole roasted garlic a fave topping for many.
Pros: Service, Fun atmosphere
Cons: Parking, tight seating
