“ The pizza, for a vegetarian, is so delicious. The service is to the point. I was quite hungry and they took my order pretty quickly. Although they told me it'd be about 20mins, they also took my mobile number. It's a small establishment and it wasn't cold so I waited outside... patient but still hungry. Got on the phone for a chat with my spousal unit ... 20 minutes roll by and no text, 25mins. No text. So I popped back in and waited a bit, asked for my pizza and they were like ..."the pizza we've been waiting on..." as if it were ME that was supposed to come in, rather than text that the pie was ready. Why give my number if you're not gonna use it? It's a small "note." By any consideration I am not perfect. They were busy most of the time my 'Za was being prepped... NBD, but I was really hungry and it was a little irksome to not have my Absolutely incredible pizza that I'd wait at least seventeen more minutes for, at least. Also, ethically, as there are people in incredibly terrible situations in the area, my critique should not register as anything more than a twinge of entitlement. No matter what. That pizza was incredible. Do they put some kind of controlled substance in there? Like Marsanno Tomatos? ”

“ I'm still dreaming about the Mortadella pizza we had last night! Thankfully, I brought a slice home and will enjoy later. This is the best pizza in Portland! With combinations I've only enjoyed previously in Rome. This particular pizza is listed on the menu as Bologna's Love, and it's aptly named! Get it! The mortadella, bologna, studded with pistachios, is placed over a base of pistachio pesto. Yes! Divine! And stracchino cheese, a superbly creamy cow's milk melting cheese, that adds to this pizza's creaminess, a delightful contrast to the lightly charred crust. When a friend invited me to dinner, I knew the pizza would be fantastic because it's the sister restaurant of Mucca Osteria, next door, arguably the best high end Italian restaurant in Portland. The pizza menu boasts many traditional Roman ingredients and combinations, in pizza form. For example, the Amatriciano is topped with delicious guanciale (pork cheek), carmelized onion, mozzarella, and Pecorino Romano, adding a salty flavor layer. Fabulous. We shared the Cesar salad, both of us exclaiming it was one of the best we ever had. Crisp romaine, noticable flavor bombs of minced anchovies with a creamy in-house dressing That I wish they bottled. We left no crumbs! Since we have different wine preferences, we enlisted the assistance of the Sommelier to select a wine. The Cab Franc she recommended was simultaneously light (few tannins) with rich berry notes. Perfection. For lunch they serve pasta, but only during lunch. And yes, that includes the 4 pastas of Rome, each of which I love for different reasons. Cacio e Pepe (Pecorino Romano and cracked black pepper) for the saltiness and simplicity; add gianciale for pork goodness and its Alla Gricio. Add egg yolks for richness and it's Carbonara. Sub tomatoes and onion for egg yolks and it's a tomatoe based Amateiciano. I need to visit 4 times so that I can enjoy each! Not kidding, thats a declaration. Inside is small and unassuming with an open view of the chefs doing their magic. The waitstaff is wonderful, friendly and efficient. This is new favorite casual restaurant. Located on SW Morrison between 9th & 10th, which is the street car route so there is no parking out front. Park at the Smart Garage on SW 9th, right before Morrison, and walk one half block up to restaurant on the right. This is legit pizza. ”

“ Your taste buds aren't ready for this... I know Kens gets a lot of pie love but Mucca's deserves a slice. They are without a doubt the most under-rated pizza joint in PDX. Don't listen to me, try it and enjoy the party in your mouth. Showstopper: North and South pizza, Mushroom Bruschetta Still amazing: Mushroom pizza, Chili bruschetta Good but just good: Arancini I have tried multiple times to snag the lunch pasta but so far, struck out. I can't wait to go back, I love these guys. ”

“ Had been dying to try Mucca Pizzeria when we finally found a chance to! Woohoo~ Dropped by on a weekday around 6 but still got hit with a 30-40 min wait. We were committed so we decided to just walk around before we got the call that our table was ready (group of 4). The menu had a lot of intriguing goods like arancini, bruschetta, soup, and of course pizzas. They were super accommodating in terms of turning a pizza vegetarian for me and even had recs about what to do add to it in place of the meat, much appreciated. We got all 3 kinds of suppli and bruschetta and honestly they're meant to be eaten 1 per person but I just split little bites with my husband and friends. Everything was delicious and the bruschetta holds a special place in my heart with that burrata. The soup was also SO good! It came with bacon/pancetta on top which they offered on the side so I could share it too! A+ service. Pizza wise we got a mix -- I had the north and south with caramelized onions instead of prosciutto, my friend had the same but with the OG meat, my husband grabbed the fiocco napoletano (potato pizza), and friend's husband got the amatriciana. We all enjoyed our pizzas and had half left as we saved room for dessert. We ended up getting 3 of the gelatos and a panna cotta though of course the star was the panna cotta. Prices are fair for the quality esp in this day and age and like I said service was exemplary so definitely can't complain there. This spot is a nice addition to the pizza scene though I will have to say there are just a couple that are more memorable to me. Check it out and see what you think! ”

“ Loved them!! Just like the mucca osteria, I loved their pizza. The toppings on vegetarian pizza were unique and definitely shows the chef's experience. We all enjoyed our orders and we look forward to be back to try them again. ”

“ Very good pizza. The two of us had no trouble sneaking in on a Friday night after a short walk from the hotel. The adjacent Mucca restaurant was quite busy, a little fancy and expensive and we had been drinking wine all day in the Willamette valley so something less formal was what we were looking for. The Caesar salad was well balanced (not too much lemon). The pizzas were interesting, one with pepperoni, eggplant and Nduja and the other was a daily special "white" pizza with fresh ricotta, Calabrian chilies, and arugula. Very traditional Neapolitan and if I have one beef, I would say that there was a little too much crust to topping around the outside. Good for keeping the pizza oven surface clean but just a little too much crust in the end. Definitely worth a return visit if we are back in downtown Portland. ”

“ Apart from the long wait while waiting for the check, this was a pretty delightful pizza spot! The bruschetta was delicious (though a bit overpriced for only one slice of bread) and the North and South pizza was AMAZING. We finished the meal with some tiramisu, and the espresso they used was absolutely incredible. ”

“ Good food, good Service, I'd recommend. We arrived and were seated outside at our request. They have several tables just outside on the street. In spite of being next to the road I felt like they did a good job of making sure the seating area felt separated and secluded using fencing and plants. Our server was friendly and attentive. He made sure our glasses were never empty and gave detailed recommendations. The food was good, we had the bruschetta, I got the Salsiccia Sandwhich, and we got a North and South Pizza. All of it was really good. The ricotta was creamy and fresh, the Chili Honey was amazing, the bread was fresh and soft, the pizza held up well and had really food flavor, ingredients seemed to be higher quality. Sincerely, all of it was a hit. This is an easy stop. They have several more traditional Italian takes, while also offering a couple American pizza options. It was a little pricey but at the end of the day not too bad. The service was good, plenty of seating, and taste was above average. We were in and out in about 35-40 minutes and we both left satisfied. I would recommend to just about anyone! ”

“ Finally tried Mucca Pizzeria with a couple of friends and I am glad I did! Best Ceasar salad I ever had. Not too heavily dressed, actual anchovies and light, crisp Romaine, in bite sized pieces. So amazing! Seems funny to go on and on about a salad, but this one was truly amazing. My friends had the soup of the day. Rich tasting, creamy tomato bisque. Really tasty. We shared the Bruchetta with house made Ricotta and spicy honey. Delish and so big we couldn't finish it. We were trying to decide what pizza to order and were talking about a favorite pizza from another pizza place that has thinly sliced potatoes and bacon. The waiter over heard us and suggested that we try their Fiocco pizza. It was supposed to have potatoes, crispy pancetta and Mozzarella on it. Well, the potatoes were mashed potatoes all over it and there was VERY little pancetta. All in all it was bland. I enjoyed the crust so I am betting that their other pizzas are fine. The wine list was not long but had a nicely curated selection. We shared a bottle of their earthiest red and it was delicious. Service was attentive and the space was comfortable. Nice lighting and not too loud to carry on a conversation. Will visit again ”
