Editorial Review for Belltown Pizza – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
The latest alternative-rock beats throb throughout the room, walls are soaked in crimson and the ceilings reach for the sky. High-backed booths offer welcome privacy and lighting is so dim you might need a lighter to read your menu. Servers are unusually approachable, considering the rock-and-roll attitude that permeates the joint.
The Food
The "Northwest" pizza dons prosciutto instead of salmon, but is still a winner. Many of the pizzas could be photographed and hung in a gallery, where meatballs and red peppers look more like artwork than food. A few pastas are offered; the Gorgonzola and walnut-stuffed ravioli is a standout, steeped in an irresistible garlic cream sauce. Come back to savor the sandwiches on fresh focaccia bread or stay late for cocktails at the dark, appealing bar.

When to GoThis is one of the city's hippest outdoor drinking spots when weather permits; call ahead to see if the patio is open.
The ExtrasPizza is good, but it's even better with a cocktail- the bar stays open daily unitl 2am.

The three stars are becuase it's exactly that...average. It's not bad, the service wasn't bad, nothing really was bad. But it wasn't knock my socks off amazing either. It's probably a great place to hang out with friends and have some decent pizza. A little expensive, but what isn't in downtown?
Pros: great outdoor space, good ambience
Cons: not great, but ok pizza

THE SERVICE I called in an order for pick up early on a friday night (5:45). I ordered a small green salad, spagetti and meatballs and a medium pizza. I ordered the spagetti with marinara and meatballs after the person taking my order made it clear that they didn't know what bolegnaise was and then said "I think so" after I asked if they had a meat sause available for the spagetti. I was amazed when I was told that my order would be ready in 12-15 min. I told him I'd be there. I arrived 15 min later to pick up my order. It wasn't ready. I paid and tipped them in the hopes that they might make up for the slow start. I wound up waiting for 20 minutes for my order. My server said thanks for your patience as he handed me my order. He failed to give me any napkins, cheese, peppers, or utencils. Basically I tipped him for placing two boxes in the bag and handing it to me along with my pizza. THE FOOD The salad was good. The Spagetti was bad. Marinara was like red water with a few chunks in it. The meatballs were gross. The Pizza was better than a frozen pizza but not as good as anything else in the neigorborhood. I won't go back except to drink at the bar.
Pros: location, outdoor seating
Cons: food, service
