Jackson Street Pizza Lounge

I feel mean leaving this review but the pizza was bland to me. Not really any strong sauce flavor. But lovely staff.. Maybe something else on the menu would be good. Very cute decor :)

A friend recommended that I try this place out. I can certainly see why! The food was absolutely amazing. The chef came out and talked with me and shared his background about traveling around Italy. What really stuck out to me was the pizza crust. It was unique and I enjoyed it very much. It was some whole wheat blend that had a great texture. The pizza flavors were creative. I ordered a bunch to try with the friends that came with me. The jerk chicken was my favorite. This is a fantastic place I will come eat at again when I’m in Seattle!

We live very nearby and stopped in for dinner for the first time on a Saturday 80s night. Not sure why we waited so long. The beet salad and focaccia mini bites were really yummy. The thin crust pizza was a nice surprise and really yummy. They allow half and half for same base pizzas which is really convenient if you can’t decide. The mushroom garlicky pizza is really good. The Italian could have had more meatballs. The decor inside was very unexpected and hard to describe. (see pics) We usually only see the chefs tossing pizza in the kitchen when you walk by because the seating area is so dark. The DJ was playing pretty loud but hubby really enjoyed his 80s music blasting. We’ll definitely go back but maybe not for the 80s throwback.

Cozy restaurant in neighborhood local only spot; Not a lot of seating. Crispy and thin crust.

Jackson Street Pizza Lounge was a highlight of our recent Seattle experience and an awesome spot in the area. The interior is well decorated with a fun atmosphere that's quite inviting. The bar itself was impressive with exceptional cocktails, and the food menu was more varied than I expected for a pizza restaurant. The food we received was great, from the broccoli, to the stromboli, to the pepperoni pizza. Would definitely recommend friends to visit!

Giving it an extra star for the vibe. Pizza was very very ok. Chicory salad I wouldn’t order again, had an off flavor. Other apps were also lackluster. I really dig the neighborhood vibe but the crust on this pizza was just not good. Ingredients seemed good and creative but the taste was not worth the price.

Love the Jazz vibes, the artwork, and the people. Solid and creative pizzas, but the shining star is their bartender/mixologist. Unpretentious, but maybe the best cocktails in a multiple mile radius. Would definitely come back again for the mixed drinks.

Wow, what an above & beyond experience at Jackson Street Pizza Lounge. The bar was filled with friendly faces, catchy music and scents of Italy. We were seated within 15 minutes but they took our drink orders while we swayed. Three of us split a pizza and two appetizers. The burrata is made in house and its milky texture pairs perfectly with buttery bites of Crostini. Ours sat on a vegetable medley with notes of truffle. The pizza is some of the best I've had in Seattle and the meatballs soft and juicy. The drinks were strong and the artwork only added to the energy in the lounge. We will be back and if we're lucky, regulars! Shout out to Archer & Donald for such great service!

Considering all pizza in Seattle is extremely overpriced, definitely some of the best pizza I've had on the west coast. Taste like a solid NY/NJ pizza. Am I happy I paid over 35$ on DoorDash for a small pepperoni pizza.... Haha absolutely no. Will I order it again? Absolutely yes! Moral of the story if you want cheap pizza order dominos, if you're looking for some nostalgic flavors and a solid crust this definitely gets as close as you can get.

Eat here!! Finding food after 10 pm is difficult, we attempted the noodle place down the street but the kitchen was closed (bar is open late but hours didn't reflect that) they recommend pizza place or blue water something. We opted for pizza. We walked in and was told the kitchen was closing in 15 mins but go ahead and sit down. I usually experience servers who are not happy when someone like us walks in this late but she was very nice about it. We ordered 3 pizzas quickly. Pizza was out in about 10 mins. Pizza was GREAT!!!! Fresh parm on the side. We had the Carbonara, double pep and Italian sausage. Amazing. I will visit again!

Ok thin crust pizza. The chicory ceasar with bread crumbs used to be pretty good, but - this seems to be a theme with the woodfired thin crust places in the area - it seems they have removed the cheese, anchovies and olive oil.

Yummy thin crust pizza! I wanted some slices to go, and they had cheese, pizza, and combo on the day that went. I got 2 combo slices to go and it was great! I'm looking forward to going again and trying more slices dine in. Definitely more of a place to come in and try as a group. Also, the person that helped me was nice and helped me as soon as I came in. Place was clean and welcoming as well.

Do not buy this pizza. It's OKAY , definitely not worth $30. The bar looks nice though, might stop back for drinks some night.

3.5 Stars Thin crust, wood-fired style pizza. The pepperoni pizza ($25) is show-stopping with two different shapes of pepperonis including the little ones that curl up into little bowls of grease mmmmm! I am not sure whether I am just sensitive to pepperoni but it was so, so salty to me. The crust was nice and thin and crispy-burnt though. I would like to try some of the other creative sounding flavors (carbonara whaaat?) We also got the burrata ($17) and it was lovely. Fresh creamy burrata served with seasonal accompaniments (sour cherries and nuts in this case) and crunchy crostinis. Coolest Vibes inside! Dive bar-esque but not dirty like one. Staff was so nice and accommodating.

If I rated on last night alone, I'd give 3.5 stars but I've had their pizza as takeout before and that rounded it up to a 4 star. We walked in last night and it was very smokey. Like your hair and coat will smell like smoke the next morning and smoke was visible in the air. That should've been a warning for things to come. It's a small space but cozy. They have booths and some tall tables, bar seating, and two tops along the bar area. They had Christmas movies on which was nice. It took a little while to get seated. They were busy with a party and it seemed to impact a lot. The staff were friendly and were clearly working hard trying to get everyone taken care of. We got beers and two pizzas. It took a long time to get our pizzas. I didn't time it, but was over 45 min from the time we sat to the time we got our food. We weren't in a rush so it was fine but then the pizzas both came out burnt. They were edible and we were pretty hungry at that point. So we ate most of them. We also didn't know how long it would take to get new ones. They weren't bad and given our experience with them in the past, I know the food is good. But even good food isn't great when burnt. We let the person who took our order know it was burnt. He said he'd let them know (maybe the person cooking the pizzas?). But I'm pretty sure the person who sent out the pizza knew they were burnt. Maybe we should've spoke up sooner and just asked for new pizzas. But I just wish they hadn't tried to pawn off burnt food to us.

Not your average neighborhood pizza joint. Creative and very flavorful thin crust pizzas; we've tried three, and our favorite so far is the carbonara. The real standout is the cocktails, which would do a buzzy upscale restaurant proud. Aperitivo and digestivo-heavy, but well-balanced; so far we've sampled some of the sweeter and the more bitter ones, as well as one non-alcoholic (the Dumas), and every one was perfectly executed. They're also great at accommodating my partner's food allergies (soy and potato). That includes being honest when something is not made in-house and they don't know the ingredients; but also some pleasant surprises (e.g. their "XO" is actually a garlic sauce and doesn't have any soy). We've been in on Sundays and the vibe was chill and neighborhoody. The prices are higher than a typical neighborhood joint, but the quality is absolutely worth it.

Great thin crust pizza, nice cozy little pizza joint my wife and I like to go to when we are too lazy to cook.

I've been here 1x so far - and so far so good! Nice thin crust pizza with gourmet toppings and rich flavors. We had chicory salad, and two pizzas - one mushroom and one Nduja. The salad was very good but I think it would have been even better with breadcrumbs / croutons for extra crunch. The mushroom pizza was my favorite - super garlicky, and lots of flavor - top shelf ingredients. The crust was near perfect in terms of flavor and texture (I think the only way I would have liked it even more is if the dough had been aged longer / had a sour taste and a bit more char from the oven - but again this is only personal preference). The Nduja was RICH almost like eating a very good Sunday gravy / meat sauce. I was glad to have the mushroom pizza to alternate slices with the Nduja else I think having only this pizza might have been a bit too heavy for me. We had some leftover slices which I had cold for breakfast the next day. Extra delicious. 9.0 / 10.0 - will be back to try all the other creations.

The first time I came here about a month ago excellent service and excellent food. This is the 2nd time coming here.....pizza was ok, and the service was annoying. Pay $100 for pizza 2 cokes and 1 ranch please don't act like we are a burden. I'm in service and I know folks have a bad day. But damn leaving a tip tonight makes me UPSET. But since we are POC I will never allow others to create a stigma that we don't tip for service/poor service. We weren't happy with the top pizza. Total misunderstanding, if I were the manager I would have allowed the customer to re-order something else. Or give another option. I doubt I will come back. I'm sure our money will be appreciated elsewhere

Our friend's band was performing here during the recent Jackson Street Jazz festival. We live far away but did make the journey to Seattle for the show and for the amazing pizza. Honestly, I am not sure we would have gone if it hadn't been for the music, but I am so glad we did. The cocktails were great. The pizza dough was perfect! The toppings were fresh and flavorful. The service was fast and friendly as well. It was a great experience, and we will definitely go back.

How are you charging so much for meatballs that are warmed up in the microwave? Informed the server that the meatballs were ice cold and her response was, "well, the bowl felt hot". If you're going to have staff microwave the food then at least teach them how to do it properly! Thanks for your reply, Donald! So helpful. Much wow!

We did take out from here last weekend. Seems like a very chill place inside - they had basketball on tv. They were a little slow to get my order from the kitchen but hopefully it would be a bit different dining in. Dogs seem welcome. Their gluten free carbonara pizza was very good, and the carbonara was particularly unique and yummy. The gluten free pizza is quite small, and you pay extra for it so that is a little frustrating but all in all, the pizza was good and I am thankful that they offer gluten free.

I love to support local business, so it's sad to have to write this review. Ordered 2 pizzas online on Sat. night, for carryout. Website said it'd be ready in about half an hour, at 7:20. I (perhaps naively) took that at face value and showed up at that time. When I got there, to a crowded and extremely loud venue, I checked-in with a server (this process is not clearly defined by any kind of signage, I just kinda had to try and seek out someone to assist me) and they asked the kitchen about my order. The server came back, laughingly telling me it 'was gonna be a while', because of all the Doordash orders that had come in. What does that mean? Do Doordash orders get priority over regular online carryout orders? More likely, the ETA on the order website that told me when the pizza would be ready is just set to 1/2 hour from when the order is placed instead of taking into account how busy the restaurant is. If true, this would really be a bizarre choice. Anyway, the server wasn't joking. I was there at 7:20 (the order had been put in at 6:50), and I left with the 2 pizzas at 8:20. After standing and waiting for an hour. I got an apology, but no other comp for my trouble. I was offered water at one point. The pizza was hot and fresh when I got it home. Was it worth the wait? In a word: no. It was a fine pizza, but not even really worth a 30 min wait, much less a 90 min one. The pepperoni one was all right: sauce was ok, topping quantity/quality was fine, crust was. very thin and very dark (but not burnt) and as such already had a distinct bitter aftertaste, which drowned out any other subtle flavors. Overall, kind of a mottled, even incoherent, flavor package. We are unlikely to order here again. We will stick to the far superior Moto and other local pizza venues with better food who believe in taking care of their patrons. 2 Stars since the food wasn't terrible, but the service and logistics here seem to be lackluster at best.

Just good pizza. Friendly staff. Nice interior. Easy street parking Will go back.

SO happy these guys are in the neighborhood! Their food is delish and the vibe is the best. I haven't been a "regular" at a place in well over a decade but my boyfriend and I stop in here at least once a week for the tasty food & drinks AND the awesome staff. Sirin is an absolute gem, Colin and Donald are pretty fantastic and everyone else is top notch. They create the kind of atmosphere you want to come back to again and again. Love!

Unremarkable, bland, and incredibly overpriced dough. Stopped in for Seattle restaurant week and won't be back. I hate writing reviews like this. $65 for a pineapple juice, a bowl of broccoli, a floppy/ soggy pizza with no flavor and a tiny scoop of mango sorbet that was half ice crystals is egregious.

Not so good pizza. Glad there was delivery but found other places serving pizza that taste better

Ambience, good waitstaff, great food. We were there on a Saturday night and there was a DJ spinning Latin Vinyl. Families, couples, groups of people all enjoying themselves. We had the chickory Caesar salad, chicken wings and a double pepperoni pizza. YUM. Also good beers and ciders on tap. Not one complaint. My 3rd time eating there and always excellent

Love it all. This is a good vibe, neighborhood pizza place. The broccoli, Tomato Pie pizza, caponata, and mushroom stromboli are DELISH. I'll add the 5th star when a bit of soundproofing takes place. It's TOO LOUD.

I've eaten here a few times and the pizza is always SO GOOD. Friends staff and quality ingredients

Good. A decent neighborhood place for a slice of pizza Wouldn't seek it out. A bit expensive for the vibe

Cool little spot in Leschi. Casual atmosphere. Pizza is delicious and cocktails are wonderful! Nice people running this restaurant. I'm excited to see the magic that unfolds here. Will post more photos when I return back for more!

I stopped in here about a week or more ago with my brother. We just wanted to hang out a bit and talk over a bite. You can't call it cheap. A very slim pepperoni pizza and a Coke came to 34 dollars, and the can (can!) of Coke alone was $4. My brother ordered no drink, which kept our tab from exceeding the $40 mark. The price wouldn't be a complaint if the food was worth the cost. My main complaint was the nothingness of the pizza. After my first slice, I actually pulled it apart to make sure there was cheese on the pizza. That's how little cheese they put on top. I thought they had made a mistake, but nope. I've been here several times before, but the quality has absolutely nosedived since the beginning of summer. If I had baked a pizza shell with a little sauce on top with some pepperoni it would have been a better meal at 1/6th the cost.

Had the Chicory salad and the sausage pizza with red sauce and garlic- so delicious! Service is always good but tonight it was amazing! If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and try it!

I am gluten free and my girlfriend is dairy free. It's usually so difficult for us both to find somewhere to eat, let alone somewhere that makes such delicious pizza!!! We're from Hawaii and visit Seattle a couple times a year. We will be coming back each trip. Best pizza I've had in years! The service is ok, not super friendly, almost felt like we were an inconvenience, and didn't come around very often.

Great little neighborhood spot! We got the Al Pastor pizza which was super tasty. I don't typically like pineapple on pizza but they did a great job. Docking a star because the pizza is very pricey for what you get. I noticed they have a few happy hour specials so I'll definitely stop by for those in the future.

Solid 3.5 star pizza but I'll round down since it took forever to get our drinks and food and the restaurant felt like a sauna since there is no AC. We got the chorizo/pineapple/hot honey, the Italian sausage/red onion/arugula pesto, and the pepperoni. Toppings were interesting and tasty but the dough/crust left much to be desired as it was way too dense and coated with semolina flour which left a grainy texture and got everywhere. Price point is also pretty high for pizza that is not that great. Some minor changes would go a long way. I'd suggest increasing hydration of the dough for a lighter, airy texture and using AP or bread flour on the peel and bottom of the dough after stretching instead of semolina. I would be down to come back as the vibes and drinks are good but I hope the pizza improves!

Love this place! Great happy hour, amazing amaro selection and the service always makes you feel at home

Happened upon this place as part of the Jazzfest music walk this weekend. We snagged the last table to listen to an amazing quartet as my son plays in his HS jazz band and wanted to hear some live jazz. It was just a lucky coincidence that they had to die for pies! We had the pepperoni and the AMAZING mushroom pies. We crushed both. Highly recommend if you like thin crust, light as a feather, slightly charred at the edges authentic pies. 10/10 will come back to try their other samplings.

What a great addition to the neighborhood! All my neighbors have been talking about this place, and now I see why! Service was friendly and prompt. Phenomenal happy hour with some great bites and even better drink prices. I highly recommend the chicory salad. Really great flavor with just the right amount of anchovy. Pizza was flavorful with a crispy thin crust that has a great texture.

The food and vibe here have really picked up. The pizzas, salads and drinks are all good. We used to drive by, now we have it in the rotation.

Jackson St. Pizza is your quintessential neighborhood pizza joint! Donald & Staff are excellent; they combine attentiveness with delicious food and we are so so lucky to have them nearby for weekly pizza night. Our constant faves are the El Pastor pizza and the Charred Broccoli app (Calabrian chili ftw!).

Absolutely fabulous little local shop. The owner was meandering about the restaurant checking in on customers. The pizzas itself were rather unique thin crusts. I found the flavor mixture to be on point. Also clean restrooms is nice. That being said the big stand out of the place was the appetizers. There was an apple and cheese plate with toast that was fantastic. My only gripe is it's a bit "uppity" so you're not really going to get anything "normal" if you're looking for a casual time out. But that's a minor gripe to a very enjoyable establishment!

Leaving reviews is not my thing but feel like I have to. I emailed them after eating there when they first opened but never heard back. So I'll say something here. The service was good. The drinks were fine. The pizza was fine. The problem is the price and the quantity. The place is *absurdly* overpriced. More than $6 for a slice of pizza that is half the size of something you'd pay a similar price for elsewhere. My only visit came late one night when I happened to be there with two of the guys who work in the kitchen at Reckless Noodles down the street dropped in. I was alone and overheard them say something to the effect of "wonder if these will be nice, fat slice-pie pieces for $6 bucks - seems expensive". Needless to say, they were surprised when their food arrived. I've lived in the neighborhood for almost 15 years. I would walk with my kids to All Purpose Pizza which became Central Pizza. Haven't been back to Jackson St since my one and only visit and I won't even entertain the idea of bringing my kids there. I know some people wouldn't blink when paying $150 for pizza night with the family. I'm not one of those guys and most families aren't. Wonder if it'll change but I do not anticipate it will.

The pepperoni pizza & Broccoli with Black Garlic, Calabrian Chilli & Lime were both delicious. Will definitely come back again.

My wife and I went way out of our way to go to Jackson's pizza. Nice place nice people but we got two martinis for $40 and they can't serve pizzas because their ovens aren't working properly. I was just trying to have a five dollar slice of pizza super disappointing.

We returned to this after loving Central Pizza - the atmosphere and the food. The new ownership did not disappoint. We both found beer we liked and tried the Italian Sausage Pizza. (Mozzarella, arugula pesto, pickled onion, and roasted garlic). I was surprised by how these ingredients blended together to make a very tasty pizza. It seems to be a true neighborhood gathering place with lots of lively conversation and fun! The service could not have been better. The prices seem to be moderate for pizza in Seattle.

What a wonderful experience!! Service was phenomenal! Justin and Donald served us an absolutely amazing feast!!! Try the Carbonara!!! Will return!!!

Justice and Donald are AMAZING!! The pizza was so good and the broccoli was to die for. Seriously haven't had anything this good in a while. The drinks were also so good and everything was fairly priced! Thank you Donald!

Minimal toppings for a maximum price. We didn't leave feeling the pizza was a good value. They could have a great product if they weren't so stingy with the toppings. I hope the owner takes this as constructive criticism.

We've been regulars since they opened. It's everything that you could want in a neighborhood spot. Super tasty pizza that's a cross between classic Neapolitan and NYC pizza (nothing like it in Seattle, and truthfully, I think it's the best here). The salads and veggie dishes are tasty and well prepared/dressed and the staff is nice. Happy to have this spot in our neighborhood.

Everything was amazing! We had the olives, the beets, and the El Pastor (as well as the Bucket of Blood and the 411). Each was better than the last!!!

Excellent food and service. Pizza and desserts. Live music was a plus. Amazing FULL BAR.

Favorite pizza place in Seattle. Pizza is amazing, salads are great and the prices are really reasonable.

this place rules the staff is always so friendly and cool and the food is some of the best in town. bar menu kicks ass and the atmosphere is really nice

So excited to have pizza place back in the neighborhood, I just read out it yesterday. We just picked up an Italian sausage pizza, it was our first time at this new spot. It was SO good, everything about it was a hit! From the thin crust to the sausage very flavorful not too greasy, pickled red onions, pistachio and that arugula pesto, what a perfect complement to other ingredients. Bonus, the restaurant decor was updated, and had a good vibe. I'll be going back to dine in and check out their cocktail program. They had a very interesting and unique cocktail list. Interesting menu and it didn't seem gimmicky. I'll be back!
