"Right off the river on North Anchor Way, this colorful spot serves heaping baskets of fried shrimp and chicken, rich and garlicky mac and cheese, thick chopped cheeses, and piles of seafood boil enriched with beef hot links. The dessert menu includes classics like peach cobbler, banana pudding, and — if you’re lucky — sweet potato pie." - Ron Scott, Nathan Williams

Scottie's Pizza Parlor NW

Pizza restaurant · Northwest District

We offer a focused menu of meticulously-crafted pizza, served as 18" round and 16" square pies. Our naturally-leavened pizza dough is made from Pacific Northwest-grown wheat and slowly fermented before baking in a super hot electric deck oven. The resulting crust is crisp, light, and airy, with a delightful sourdough flavor. We use organic California-grown tomatoes and only the finest quality cheeses. Our fresh herbs, salad greens, and vegetables are grown organically and sourced locally whenever possible. Every pizza is handmade with love by passionate, skilled, and kind-hearted pizzaioli. We utilize a service charge business model in lieu of accepting tips. More info on our website.
