The Hit List: New Seattle Restaurants To Try Right Now - Seattle - The Infatuation
"Normally, we’d associate the dual presence of blacklights and pepperoni with a fraternity party. Now, Ballard Beer Box is here, and we can’t think of a better place for a last-minute group hang in the neighborhood. There’s not much to this mellow spot, other than a few taps, refrigerators where you can grab natural wine, and lest we forget the most important appliance: a pizza oven. That thing fires up glorious pies that are as plush and crackly as a dog’s favorite toy. There’s a BBQ pizza that’s toned down by bechamel and a gooey olive-oiled margherita. But the white Queen Bianca pie unironically rules all with its garlic bread vibes and ricotta rosettes. They can only bake one pizza at a time, but the beer, blasting EDM, and internalized college nostalgia should keep you occupied during the wait." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley
