Stopped in for a pizza and a salad. Took 20-30 mins since the owner makes everything to order. Our pizza was delicious lots of flavor, I don't know how to describe it, but he puts the toppings inside and on top of the pizza. The dough was thin crust and was flavorful, big thin foldable slices . We ordered Italian salad, it came tossed in dressing , it has some heat to it so if spice is not your thing, this salad might not be for you. We loved it. The salad had green and black olives, onions, spices, tomato and red bell peppers. It was a good portion too! I would absolutely come back and grab a slice - you should too!

Right away walking into the trading post (building) the smell hit our noses and we knew we needed to at least try a slice! We decided to grab a whole pepperoni pizza and take it to go, we ordered from Vinnie himself and he was such a delight! You can hear the NEW YORK when he speaks LOL. The pizza was delicious, fresh and made to order! I paired mine with some ranch (also from vinnies) and I literally couldn't stop eating. Nothing better than real authentic pizza with great service! The wait wasn't very long either (definitely reasonable) I would recommend and definitely come back for more! Personal thanks to you Vinnie !!

A Must have in friday harbor! We got the classic pepperoni pizza and there's deliciousness in every bite! You can taste the fresh ingredients, seasoned to perfection, and cooked with a beautiful golden brown crust that delivers the perfect crunch to the proportion of sauce and toppings. This small shop is located in the trading post building downtown. 10/10 on the food!! FYI: this isn't little caesars hot n ready cardboard. It's made fresh to order so expect a bit of a wait. There are an abundance of shops next door to check out while you wait and the food is worth it!

We went there 3 months ago (Jan, 2025). The vegan pizza was great. It was huge and very beautiful when we opened the box. We ordered the biggest size. The vegan cheese was melty and not glue like (such as Daiya cheese). The owner couldn't remember the brand of vegan cheese they used, but it tasted very good and very filling. We had plenty of leftovers. At that time there was only takeout available, no seating. There was only one person working so the wait was a bit long, we just went explore the town more and came back to pick it up.

Best pizza I've had since living in San Francisco. Most flavorful sauce I've ever no comparison. Oven roasted crusted and incredible cheese. Your only problem will be not ordering enough for later.

My husband and I had the Italian salad and pizza 10/10! We had to come back the next day for more salad and yummy cheesy garlic bread. Food was made fresh and tasted authentic. We will be back when we visit this island again!
