Reviews
The wood-fired pizza is lovely, with a not-too-thick-not-too-thin and slightly charred crust, a generous helping of sauce, and a solid layer of cheese / whatever toppings you request. They do have a few sauceless pizzas, so read the menu carefully before you order! The staff is super friendly and will probably warn you, but still worth taking a look. I typically order their classic margherita, which is delightful — the pop of freshness from the basil really elevates the overall pizza. You can occasionally get unlucky and get an overcooked pizza, which happened during my second visit here; the crust was a bit too dry and overly charred, but the pizza was still tasty. My pizza during my last visit was totally fine, as were all the pizzas I saw around us during this lunch-time stop, so I assume it was a one-off fluke.
Their starters are also all quite tasty! I’ve tried their burrata and brussels sprouts, both of which are delightful. The burrata comes with a huge serving of hot, melty burrata and delicious tomato mixture. It’s paired with their bread, which is soft and pillowy on the inside, with a lovely charred exterior that holds up well to the cheese. It does feel a little bit silly to get bread and cheese right before eating more pizza (aka bread and cheese), but it’s very good and absolutely worth a try. The sprouts are also tasty — I love a good warm salad, and it has a great sweet and savory flavour profile from the balsamic glaze and grated parmesan. The toasted almonds are also a wonderful added crunch! I did find some of the brussels sprouts a little bit too big, which meant a few were a tiny bit undercooked in the center and hard to eat (although I also have a small mouth, so it could be a me problem), but the overall dish was still great!
We ordered three, 12 inch pizzas that were roughly 22 dollars each. We had several issues with the pizzas:
1. Toppings were sparse for the price. Crust was pretty thick at the perimeter for a 12 inch diameter pizza.
2. The tomato sauce was too “watery.” This caused the first bite on a new slice to pull off all the cheese and toppings, so we were left with a topping-less slice with light tomato sauce after the first bite.
3. Seasoning and flavor. We all agreed that the pizza just didn’t have flavor. We agreed that a Domino’s or Red Barron has more flavor than what was presented.
I don’t say any of this to be rude, but I’m like every fat American. I’ve had my fair share of pizza. This did not hit. There are better options for MUCH cheaper with more to offer per slice in Warrenton. Save your money, buckle in, and don’t bother to stop here until the slices are re-evaluated and confirmed to have been improved.
The pizzas came out quickly. The crust is nice and thin, though you need to give a little fold for structural integrity purposes. I’d have liked if the outer edge of crust puffed up a bit more, but if it’s homemade dough, you sometimes can get inconsistent rise or even if the temp is a little off in the oven (being really particular here .) Didn’t take away from the great flavor of everything.
We already want to head back to try out their other pizza.
The margherita pizza with mushrooms was phenomenal — not your textbook Neapolitan with airy crust, but something more rustic and satisfying. The crust had the perfect char and chew, the cheese melted beautifully, the mushrooms were silky, and the fresh basil was deeply fragrant. It’s the kind of pizza you can’t stop eating. The meatballs were clearly house-made: tender, flavorful, paired with a tomato sauce so sweet and tomato-y. The arrabbiata pasta was hand-cut, with just the right heat and a creamy kick — simple but so well executed.
But the real surprise was the Beale’s Gold Lager. I don’t even like beer usually, but this was extraordinary — light, fruity, clean, slightly sweet with zero bitterness, and a refreshingly smooth aftertaste. It didn’t have the heaviness or gluten-forward finish that turns me off most beers. It was so good, I finished the whole glass and wished I had another.
And then there’s the service. In NYC, service can be polished but impersonal. Here, it’s the real deal — warm, genuine smiles, no pretense, just people who are happy to see you and proud of what they serve. The open kitchen, high ceilings, and reclaimed wood give the space a cozy yet airy charm that matches the vibe perfectly.
And the prices are incredibly reasonable. A margherita pizza in NYC runs $18–22; here, it’s $10–13 — and better. We devoured every last bite. No leftovers, no regrets.
Edit: Temporarily revising to two stars because my most recent experience was awful. Waited almost an hour for an order which would have been fine, except when I went downstairs to check I was told they were boxing it up right then. Awesome! Then I watched them hand the pizzas they had just boxed up, and which matched our order, to another customer after pulling out the tag that had been on that order. When I next checked where our order was at I was told it was no longer in their system. I get they were busy, but I can’t recommend coming here at this time. I hope to be back next year and be able to revert to the fully positive review.
