Jackson Street Pizza Lounge

Jackson Street Pizza Lounge Opens in Former Central District Space | Eater Seattle

"The space has been taken over by new owners who appear to be keeping that pizza slice sign and hopefully the overall vibe: Michael Genardini and Donald Dolaghan, both former employees of Ethan Stowell Restaurants, quietly opened Jackson Street Pizza Lounge last month. The pizzas are in the classic Neapolitan — or “Neo-Neapolitan” — style, with adventurous toppings like the El Pastor topped with caramelized pineapple, chorizo, and Calabrian honey, and there are small-plate items such as broccoli with black garlic, Calabrian chili XO sauce, and lime. Fittingly for a pizzeria that doubled as a bar, the cocktail list is beefed up and leans heavily into amaro (one drink is described as an “amaro milkshake”), and there’s a fairly sophisticated mocktail menu that aims to recreate the flavors of Manhattans and amaro sours. It’s open seven days a week, from 4 p.m. until 11 p.m. Sunday to Thursday, and until midnight on Friday and Saturday." - Harry Cheadle
