serious pie

amazing quality pizza. there is no other pizza place like this amazing one. while you have to share seats with strangers, the food is absolutely splendid. highly recommend getting the sausage pizza.

mouthwatering pizzas with a flavorsome crust - perfect for a rainy day. limited choice though - could expand its topping choices and allow for a make your own.

all the pizzas are good at serious pie - crispy doughy crust, amazingly fresh ingredients, great combination of toppings. it has everything you want in a great pizza restaurant.

the soft eggs and prosciutto was probably my favorite of the pizza with the amazing slices of seasoned meat and the soft egg yolk i could spread across the pizza for amazing flavoring. my second favorite would be the mushroom, great texture on the soft mushrooms against the salty truffle cheese.

this spot is not easy to get into. each time we walked by there was a line to get in and a bit of a wait. the first time i got a few for takeout to eat which wasn't a great idea. it's still good pizza, but the magic is when it's fresh and served on a pizza stone. there's a warmth and crispness to it that can't be beat.
serious pie might be the standard for pizza places because it's been around so long and so highly hyped. everyone i talked to before hitting seattle instantly said, "serious pie." they honestly forced other pizza restaurants to up their game while remaining still at the top of the tier for great flat pizzas.

amaaaazing wood oven style pizza with a great selection of toppings and incredible crust! every pizza looked amazing but i would recommend the fennel sausage for sure! super friendly staff as well.

was here for a weekend brunch.  i ordered two of their biscuits (fried green tomato, bacon, remoulade, egg/fried chicken, tabasco black pepper gravy) and was amazed at the quality and richness of flavour.  the only downside is that it is hugely popular, so getting a table timely can be an issue, so don't be out of your mind hungry when arriving as wait times over the weekend could be up to an hour

everything a pizza should be.. i have been lusting after their pizza since returning to melbourne. honestly, some of the best pizza i have ever eaten. so good i filled my belly there twice in 4 days, no regrets. that pizza dough recipe is one i'd consider selling a limb for. i did find it a little pricey given the relatively small portions, but the flavour and beautifully blistered crust readily soothed my budget woes.

good pizza. spendy.. we ordered the mushroom pizza and the asparagus, pickled chile and onion 'special'. the special was ok but not the mushroom pizza was incredibly lackluster. for $22 after tax and tip i expect some flavor in the mushrooms. the crust is good but, let's face it, it's bread. additionally the space is small and hot with communal tables. due to the lack of value and ambiance issues i probably won't return.

not my favorite seattle pizza. the pizza's has a light/thin style that's executed well, but the two times i ate there i left feeling that i didn't quite get my money's worth. i wasn't unhappy with it (admittedly i have a wide range of tolerance for pizza), but it's not a place i've felt much of interest in returning to. perhaps it just comes down to pizza style preferences.

near perfect. having recently sampled a number of serious pies at an event at the new starbuck's roastery we were moved to visit their s. lake union restaurant, that sits atop serious biscuit and a dahlia bakery (with aerial views of each for your dining entertainment). the ambiance feels like a more intimate version of owner tom douglas' brave horse with some additional touches, like the wood fired pizza oven and charcuterie case displaying hanging meats. but it wasn't until i sat down on one of the counter height chairs that i realized how inadequate almost all restaurant seating is. these chairs are amazingly comfortable and would enhance the enjoyment of any meal!
i started with the bitter greens, which was a creative and delicious salad which i thoroughly enjoyed; however, it left me wondering if instead of a soft boiled egg how a poached egg might fare with the anchovy flavor and softer texture. the salad was followed by a beautiful sausage and pepper pizza. while the topping was outstanding and the crust delicious, i felt that the crust could have been improved (i.e. not as much to my liking as the wood-oven crust at tutta bella)--but i recognize just how much individual tastes vary when it comes to pizza crust.
combine all this with the outstanding service that garrett provided on our visit and it was a wonderful meal that leave me looking forward to a return visit.

overrated. artistic, booring, overpriced pizza. flavors are not intense enough, off flavors from oven. sometimes good specials.

5/5 ding ding ding ding ding. love is in the air/pizza here.  to my knowledge, serious pie sells pizza. and they do it very, very well. during happy hour, they have a special deal where it is $6 half sized pizzas. we ordered the truffle mushroom one (which, till this day, i still think and salivate about) and the potato one (good but pales in comparison to the mushroom one) great atmosphere, real hot stone/firestone hand stretched dough pizzas. slightly charred. great great great. would go back in a heartbeat. will probably be back. location is slightly hard to find but be patient because it's so worth it. love. below is a photo i took of them pizzas. picture does no justice to how good it was. http://instagram.com/p/rvxhwbnwza angel

serious pie. great place... variety of choices.

serious pie is the casual dining hotspot in local restauranteur tom douglas’s…shall i say super block of restaurants. notorious for opening restaurants all within a one or two block radius (so he could walk from one restaurant to the next), tom douglas is the man who can seemingly do no wrong in the local food scene. my personal favourite, serious pie, serves up authentic neapolitan-style pizzas, with a locavore twist. many, if not most ingredients are either made in-house (fennel sausage, other house-cured meats) or supplied by local foragers.

great pizza. among the best i've tried so far in seattle; we came for dinner at this location (there is another, but this was closest to our hotel). i started with the kale salad, and my mother got the roasted beets. the kale was my kind of food; great quality produce, with a subtle and not overpowering lemony dressing. it was topped with some pine nuts (great flavor to pair with kale!) and some calabrian peppers to add some vinegary zing and heat. topped with a little cheese to add some salt. great, simple salad. mom's beets (a combination of both golden and purple) were perfectly warmed in a small ceramic dish with goat's cheese, a few hazelnuts for crunch, and farro. a light balsamic dressing was in the base of the dish so that it did not over-coat the beets and cheese. for our entrees, i got the prosciutto/arugula/egg pizza and my mother got the special which was, if i remember correctly, with some spicy sausage and onions. i'd never had pizza with eggs but it was lovely; the eggs added a different creaminess than cheese did. the arugula was fresh and the prosciutto was the perfect meaty accent. my mother's pizza was much more flavorful as far as spice goes; the sausage was really great. the bread aspect is what truly made the pizzas for me. neither of us finished a full pizza; if i were to go again i would get a starter and share a pizza with someone. we decided to get dessert. i got some truly amazing cannoli and she got some great coconut pie. these people really know how to take a classic and make it modern and great while still laying true to it's history. would definitely love to visit again!

and i forgot- my pizza came out about 10 minutes late, and while it did not bug me at all, they told me they weren't going to be charging me for it when they finally brought it to me. great service!

serious pie.  restaurant #2 by tom douglas that we had to visit!  reasons: we love pizza. it is open relatively late (until 11pm). everyone (thousands of people) rave about this place. we actually ended up coming here twice.  this was the first place we went to after getting off the plane.  since we loved it, we had to make b and stella try it.  here are the pizzas we got, why and our thoughts...
