pietro’s pizza

you go here for two reasons,decentpizza and then games for the kids. they hit the mark the mark. we got there early and hostess said sit where you want, so we picked a large table on the side. there was talk if going upstairs to the crows nest for the kids but we didn't do it. ordered three large pizzas, extra cheese, pepperoni, and sausage. they came pretty quickly. thin crust was crispy. sauce was tangy and good but pretty standard. toppings were fine but there were pools of grease on the plates. if that bothers you don't try this place. salad bar is minimal but ok for those skipping the pizza. games weredecentand the young ones loved them. you don't get any tokens with food purchase and have to buy them at .25 per token. mini golf is indoors and blacklit wife and i may stop for drink and a round one night.

you're going here for one reason. it's because you have kids. okay, maybe it's because you're friends with people with kids. at least that was the situation with us at the time. pietro's is made to be a child-distraction engine, and i'm sure that if they could somehow harness the energy of children stuffed with pizza, partying like pirates, and playing video games this restaurant would be able to power the entire city of beaverton handily. this isn't necessarily a bad thing, but much like another major pizza chain, there's a definite market that's being catered to here. be warned.

on the other hand, the pizza here isdecentenough, unlike some other major child-resort-pizza chain, such that you don't get indigestion just for taking your kids to a restaurant like this. it may not be the best, but it's far better than a lot of options out there. it's fairly standard pizza fare toppings-wise. if you want something unusual, best look for something else.

so grab the kids or friends with kids and visit. it's alright.
