"Diners know this spot for its thin-crust wood-fired pizza and lovely salads. Two-day-fermented dough is the base for the likes of zesty tomato sauce, spicy salami, and onions. The Jersey salad with red cabbage, crispy lettuce, and croutons is a crunchy treat. Don’t leave without a couple of the chocolate chip cookie with gray salt, or buy some of the cookie dough to bake at home." - Harry Cheadle
"Oysters shmoysters — what gets our personal engine revved up, especially during the colder months, is wood-fired pizza. The pies at this Ballard neighborhood pizzeria are simple and hot and beautiful; Delancey eschews flashy toppings in favor of classics like pepperoni and bacon and onion. Beyond the pizza, the item to get here is the Jersey salad, which is loaded with Grana cheese and “Italian” dressing and is the perfect dish to share." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart, Harry Cheadle
"If you despise birthday attention but were coerced into a celebration by someone who unconditionally loves you, it’s probably best not to fight it at this point. Rounding up five more folks, some pies, and a bottle of natural bubbles at Delancey is the perfect way to slap together a low-key evening that’s way better than staying home with a sad candle-jabbed Safeway cupcake. Since they only take reservations for parties of six or more, it makes last-minute planning easy. Plus, Delancey’s charred pizzas and mountainous salads are easily shareable, and a freshly baked chocolate chunk cookie loaded with salt flakes is the greatest no-big-deal birthday dessert you could ever ask for." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"New York and Chicago are not the only noteworthy pizza towns in the United States of America. Exhibit A: Delancey. Even if you just popped in this Ballard pizzeria for a glass of Austrian natural bubbles and small plates like burrata in a pesto pool served with flatbread shards or the mountainous romaine-based Jersey Salad with shaved carrots and really good croutons, that’d be enough to have a satisfying meal. But you should prioritize the charred pies topped with things like hot salami, caramelized Walla Walla sweet onions, kalamata olives, and summer corn. The space is also an exciting, minimalist hangout perfect for anything from a date to a family dinner, powered by tea candles and good smells coming from the wood oven." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"Your Order: Jersey Salad This is essentially the Rugrats' Ice Cream Mountain of salad: a towering mound of crisp romaine dressed perfectly with Italian dressing, grated grana, cabbage, carrot ribbons, and chunky croutons that absorb the vinaigrette like a software engineer once had to absorb javascript. We could eat an entire bucket of this refreshing heap." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
