From the reviews
Delicious gourmet thin crust artisan pizza in an open family friendly environment. Build your own or try one of the creative pies available such as Dill With It, or the broccoli and cheddar combination we had. The crust is wheat forward with a rustic flavor developed by their wood-fired pizza oven.
I've been sitting on this review for a few days now, because I feel conflicted about writing it. Tastebud has some of the best pizza in Portland, if not *the* best pizza. Why the 4 star and why do I feel conflicted? I purchased bagels from Tastebud this last weekend, and I couldn't be more disappointed in them. 1.
Their "Pesche" pizza is easily in the top 5 best pizzas I've ever had (and I've had a lot). Not the cheapest pizza I've ever had, but man, was it ever good! Crust was perfect out of the oak fired oven, ingredients were flavorful and fresh. Note: I never , ever heard of a peach being on a pizza...
Highly attentive staff, great pizza and just small enough to be initmate. It had been a while since our last visit but consistently a really good experience. One suggestion...get rid of the paper napkins and replace with cloth. I know there's a cost imapct, but it makes a difference.
