cozy yet lively. this place is so good!
this new location is within walking distance (roughly 3/4 mile) from downtown hood river, right on the waterfront. the atmosphere is very cozy (think wood fire oven) and lively (loud music, lots of families and loud convos). there was a longwaitwhen we arrived, but the ladies up front were beyond friendly and offered us a cocktail while we waited to eat.
the pizzas are excellent. my only complaint was that it wasn't crispy enough, which i assume was because the place was packed and the cooks were trying to turn orders fast (i'd been to the solstice in white salmon several times and the pizzas were always sufficiently crispy). you've gotta go for the cherry girl pizza, it's simply the best.
