Ruse Crust Collective Vancouver Waterfront

So impress with the Detroit style pizzas here. With a party of 12 we sat outside, the view of the river was nice and relaxing. Ordered the Cutless Supreme, Greektown, Dial "P" for Pepperoni and the Mafia Busboy. All very good and with great taste. Also ordered the Hazel's Garden(salad) and Penny's bread sticks. Yum. Our over all experience was perfect. And our waitress was awesome and very attentive. Can't wait to go back.

Stopped in with my family while walking around the waterfront we were craving pizza and decided to give this place a try. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere with lots of plants and great natural lighting, plus a lovely view of the river. We were seated right away, and our server was friendly and attentive. We did end up waiting close to an hour for our pizza, which felt a bit long considering it wasn’t very busy and we ordered soon after sitting down. Not sure if it was a staffing issue or something else, but the wait stood out. When the pizza arrived, it was pretty good but not the best. I’d be open to coming back for a second try and will update my review if the experience is different next time.

Marvelous Detroit style pizzas (Mafia Bus Boy pictured), and a great assortment of beers. Lots of seats, with a patio. A bit on the pricier side if you are coming for happy hour, but absolutely delicious as an option for lunch/dinner.

This one one of the best pizza places of the Portland and Vancouver area. The pizza is more of a Detroit style, pan crust, with sauce on top. They have their own micro brewery and their beers are great. Always recommend this place to visitors. Usually not much of a wait.

We've found a new favorite pizza place. It's right by the waterfront & the food was amazing, the beers refreshing! We ordered Towering Trees, we're carnivores but we enjoyed every bite of this pizza. The prices were actually pretty good for the area & the quality of food you get 👌

This place is probably 5 stars if you were JUST talking Vancouver pizza stops. Very different pizza’s with tons of flavors to pick from, Ruse Brewing Crust Collective has a lot for just about everyone. I went with my wife and 5 month puppy and had a blast. Outdoor seating for the pup, enjoying the waterfront ambiance with a slice of pie. We had two pies, one was very good and one was okay. Not bad by any means, and to most it would probably be fantastic. I just personally have to size it up to my other pizza places I’ve been to, and for me I’ve personally had better. But again, for Vancouver, it’s really good! Try it out for yourself, the staff is wonderful and will take great care of you!

We have known about thus place for some time but we're not sure if Vancouver needed another pizza joint. Woe, we're we pleasantly surprised. Hands down our favorite pizza in Vancouver. Easily the best for us. Been here several times and have enjoyed pizza perfection each and every time. North Shore is a repeat item and then we venture out to all the other pizza offerings on each visit. Staff is awesome and we have never had issues with seating. The drink and appetizer menus are tidy and sufficient and I recommend trying one of their fresh salads. Seriously have never had pizza this good and there is no crust left behind. We've taken others here and they have enjoyed the same quality and flavor.

Wow! So many good things to say about this place! I didn't know exactly what to expect in terms of the pizza, but it was the most unique, amazing pizza that I've had in such a long time. I sat at the bar as I was by myself in town on business and the bartender was extremely friendly and lovely to chat with. He gave me lots of information on the beer options as well as a lot of other great advice on things to do in the Portland area. I've been sharing my experience with everyone I've talked to and everyone seems excited after seeing the photo of the pizza that I took. Definitely will be back the next time I'm in the Portland area. Thanks again for the absolutely stellar experience.

Prior to heading to the Vancouver Farmers Market nearby, we made plans to grab a bite to eat at one of the local restaurants here at the Waterfront. And thanks to fellow yelpers and their cheesy cutting-edge pizza pics, we decided on giving these guys a try. ~ Parking / Dining / Atmosphere ~ Two options for parking, along the street or at one of the nearby parking garages. As for dining options, you can chillin' at the bar or wait to get seated at a table. On a nice day, you can even choose to relax outside at a patio table with an umbrella. The tables were clean for the most part as well. They were heavy-duty wooden square tables, typically for two to four people per. We frequently saw staff coming by and cleaning the dining area. Inside, the place is square but has got a high ceiling, so it felt open. I'd say the atmosphere felt new and modern in there, and it wasn't too noisy with almost every table taken. You can easily hear the person across from you. ~ Crust Collective Detroit Style Pizzas ~ The Cutlass Supreme ($26) - Between the three of us, we decided to pick a pizza each and share. This Cutlass was my choice. Love the pepperoni cups and the fennel sausage, which was the reason for my decision. Only my friends weren't fans of black olives, but to me this was the closest to being a "combination" type of pizza. Since I've never been here, I wanted to try something standard. And honestly, I really enjoyed it with extra red sauce! Something Marvelous ($25) - Another friend chose this pie, which had pulled barbecue chicken and bacon on it. And you gotta have red onion and barbecue sauce if you're gonna have this style of pizza. I'm not a BBQ chicken pizza fan, but this one was delish. It had to be the Alabama white sauce calming down the tanginess. Also an excellent choice! Towering Trees ($24) - Why? Why arugula piled up on top? You're gonna piss off them meat-lover fans! Speaking of which, the third friend of mine that normally orders meat-lovers pizzas decided on this one with his choice. This had some garlic confit, various shrooms, and a towering amount of arugula on top. And surprisingly, I liked it best between the three pizzas. ~ Overall ~ After trying three different pies, I gotta say, the crust is soft and fluffy. And every bite had a piece of topping all the way to the crispy cheesy edges. The place is pretty chill, and service was cordial and helpful. Do be aware that these pizzas take a while to bake, so order in advance, or don't expect it right away. They do sell by the slice, but it's worth it to get the entire pie imo. I didn't try their local brews, but my two friends did enjoy the root beer. They've got a variety of styles of pizzas that I wanna try, so I'll definitely be back!

I went here with my mom on a Friday afternoon, fairly late. The parking situation is annoying but I can't really hold it to them specifically, that's just a waterfront thing. Overall we really enjoyed the food. The garlic caesar salad was great, but man they definitely MEAN garlic when they say that, because it had a very sharp raw garlic bite. Even after eating many breath mints, brushing my teeth, using mouthwash, etc many times, my breath still was kickin' into the next morning. I don't know that I would order it again just because of that. It was definitely good though. We ordered the pepperoni just to keep it classic for our first time. My mom is from NYC and she usually does not go for pizza with thicker crust at ALL. However, we both loved that the crust didn't feel dense, but light and airy almost like a focaccia. The sauce is something that we tend to feel is lacking at many pizza places, but this sauce was flavorful and fresh tasting. One huge drawback for us was the lack of sweet beverage options for people who don't want or can't have sugar. Yet they have glass bottles of regular soda ($4, and obviously no refills). Okay so they didn't have any diet soda, fine, we then asked for iced tea with some truvia or stevia (or literally any non-sugar sweetener)- nope, they only had honey or raw sugar. My grandma was diabetic and it bums me out going to an establishment that lacks options for people like her to feel included. It always makes me think twice about going back.

Every time we travel down to Portland we stop at Crust for awesome Detroit style pizza. It's deep dish with cheese and toppings all the way to the crispy delicious edges. We have tried every pizza they make and they are all outstanding. However, the Greek pizza should have kalamata olives on it and not regular ripe black olives. It does that Greek pizza a huge disappointment. I never ordered again because of that and I am deducting a star for the bad judgement. The beer is also outstanding with constant changing selections. My favorite is always the fluorescent farm. I remember when batch #1 came out. The service is friendly. The ambience can get noisy, but it is super clean and minimal. There is also outdoor seating. Besides pizza they also have delicious looking huge salads. Do yourself a favor and go check them out and their awesome Detroit style pizza.

Wow!!!! What an amazing pizza spot on the Vancouver waterfront boardwalk. We stop by when things were slow. The waterfront picks up as the evening goes. The wait staff are very kind and helpful. And the atmosphere was pretty chill. We decided to sit outside to take advantage of the warm weather while we still have it. We both ordered separate pizza. They had a number of great choices that we could decide on one to split. Once the pizza arrived I was initially intrigued because the crust looked different than any other pizza you've probably experienced. Not sure how they did it, but the cheese because the crust in some ways. It had a nice crunch to it. The toppings were super delicious. Pepperoni, fennel sausage, cured ham, and delicious mozzarella. I think I'll let you check it out tell me what you think. This is my new spot for certain.

Stopped by for some Detroit-style pizza, and this place did not disappoint! From the moment I walked in, the staff was super friendly, greeting me with a smile. The host let me pick my own seat, so I decided to sit outside and enjoy the waterfront views. The vibe here is great - perfect for a relaxed meal with a view. And the pizza? Absolutely delicious! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

While the wait for food was super long, the food was so good that I still have to give this 5 stars. The pizza is great, but I need to call out that the black garlic caesar salad is an absolute must. Great vibes inside and friendly staff. Would love to come back!

We order Quattro Cheesy and Black Garlic Caesar. The service was great and engaging. Food was phenomenal, pizza crust had good crunch and sauce was delightful. It's one of the top pizza places in Vancouver.

This style of pizza is amazing! My husband could have eaten the whole thing himself though, it's a bit on the small side. Our server was friendly and the view of the river was a nice touch.

Some of the best pizza i've ever had! My partner and I got the Turnpike pizza with vegan beef to replace the real beef. The crust was perfectly crisp and cheesy tasting, the ricotta was nicely placed on with a piping bag (so cute - never seen this done before on a pizza) and the entirety of the pizza was delicious! The service was great as well. There was both indoor and outdoor seating, and a bar inside as well. The restaurant overlooks the water and it was genuinely so pretty and relaxing to enjoy a nice dinner here. The best part is as someone who doesn't eat red meat, is that there are vegan alternatives! You can switch out both the meats and cheeses with vegan options for only $1-$3. Definitely will be coming back!

I wish I took more pictures but we were starving! Service 10/10, ambience 10/10, server 10/10. We got the bbq chicken and it did not disappoint. The cheese pull, right?? I've been here many times and will continue to rave about it. Pricey, but worth it y'all!

The food at this place was delicious. My friend, his son, and I decided to try it for the first time today, and the flavors blew us away. This was one of the best pizzas I have ever had. We kicked off with a Caesar salad, which was so generous in size that we split it three ways, and it was just the right portion for us. As soon as we polished off the salad, our pizzas arrived. I couldn't decide which pizza I liked better; I've never been a massive fan of deep-dish pizza until now. I've honestly been converted. The sauce had the perfect tanginess, the toppings were plentiful, and everything tasted fresh. The service was outstanding. The servers were incredibly attentive; they were always there when we needed anything but never hovering. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the restaurant was impeccably clean. Its waterfront location was a bonus. The menu is extensive, and I've only scratched the surface. I can't wait to return soon and try more items from the menu.

Yum yum yum. Get here. Caesar salad was big enough to split with three adults. It was FANTASTIC. Beet salad is good too but that'll feed one adult. Any pizza you get is gonna slap. Came twice in one week it was so good.

I crave this pizza! We ordered a pepperoni, sausage and mushroom pizza and a Caesar salad to share. We couldn't finish the salad. I think it's enough for 3 adults. Great service and good beer.

Oh my! This is so much more than great pizza! It's outstanding! The deep dish made it so there was a delicious crunchy cheesy crust. I was free from guilt with the large helping of arugula that sat on top. This had a dressing all its own with large chunks of roasted garlic hidden in the leaves. Perfectly accompanied the mushroom And truffle flavors! I can't wait to eat this again ! The waiter was patient and informative when we inquired on the seasonal Ciders. It was nice to eat outdoors and take in the view of the river. For chillier days it would be nice to get some heaters out on the patio.

Absolutely the best pizza around. The sauce is to die for, the food is quality, and their salads are crazy yummy too. Highly recommend.

My husband and I shared the Something Marvelous pizza which was a unique take on BBQ chicken pizza. I'm not usually a BBQ chicken pizza person, but this was fantastic. Their Detroit style crust was perfect. My only regret is not trying another pizza.

Pretty good pizza. The gluten free pizza looks very similar to the regular which is a nice surprise! No cracker crust in sight. They have a nice variety of unique pies and sides. I would go back to try a classic combo pepperoni and veg but tried their version of the Hawaiian. It was good and crunchy on the edges. It needed a little bit...more(?) somehow. Maybe add some herbs or garlic to the crust or a little hot chill oil or something to it. Maybe pepperoni? It just needed a little extra zing to put it over the edge. We also tried the gourd salad, it was okay. Almost too sweet and mostly arugula. It also needed more balance. Maybe splash a touch of balsamic vinegar or a squeeze of citrus to round it out. Overall good, could be great but needs a few extra additions.

The absolute best pepperoni I've ever tasted. And the sauce and the crust... just half a click behind. If you like Detroit pizza, or haven't tried it, get ye to Crust Collective.

It lived up to the hype as THEE place for Detroit-style pizza. We thoroughly enjoyed the North Shore which includes "bacon lardon." The server was super nice and efficient. The touted black pepper Caesar Salad was nothing special, but still good. And the Watermelon spritzer was just okay. Great scenery and laid back atmosphere on a Sunday at Noon, but I assume it's a mad house during weekend prime time.

Stopped in for lunch on a Monday at opening (11:30). We were the first ones there, so we had our pick of seating options. We opted for the outdoor patio since the weather was perfect for it and there was a nice view of the river and bridge. We were greeted as we walked in the door and handed menus. After reading other reviews, we decided to share the black Caesar salad and Quattro cheesy pizza. Ingredients were fresh and delicious! The Caesar salad had housemade croutons, lemon zest, and a lemon wedge on the side. The Caesar dressing was so yummy! It was not overpowering with any ingredient... a perfect blend of all ingredients. The Quattro cheesy pizza was so good with the crispy cheese edges and fresh pureed tomatoes on top. We were both extremely happy with our choices and so happy we shared both as portions are large. My hubby ordered the Couvers light beer and really enjoyed the flavor. Overall, we were very happy with our first experience here. I can't believe they've been down on the waterfront for over a year now since April 2022, per our server. This place has been on my list for a while, and I'm so glad I finally made time to try it. Would highly recommend.

Best beer in the area, the bartender Andy was so kind and personable. Highly highly recommend stopping in, the pizza looked amazing too!!

We finally tried Crust Collective and it was definitely worth the wait and was so wonderful! We ordered their double vision without their pepperoncinis. We added pineapple and dollops of their rosemary ricotta. We also got a little bowl of their hot honey on the side because my fiancé wasn't sure about it. We both agreed that the hot honey ended up being one of the most delicious toppings on it. The pepperoni, pineapple and ricotta was so amazing! The restaurant was very clean, had nice lighting and the servers were super friendly! We can't wait to go back again!

THIS PIZZA WAS GREAT !!! It also had a crazy beautiful view ! The dude who helped us was great !

This place is a must try and has quickly turned into my favorite restaurant on the amazing waterfront. I initially came to try the beer on a friend's recommendation but was blown away by the other offerings like my current favorite salad, the beet and burrata, and the Detroit style pizzas that over deliver in taste and quality. The salad is a must try and is incredible! Beets, gooey burrata, hot chili oil and micro greens and rainbow turnips. Must try! The pizzas have pleased everyone I've taken here and I have yet to try one I haven't liked. Detroit style with light, airy dough that might look heavy or dense yet isn't. High quality ingredients all around. Last but not least, the beer is fantastic! I've tried every hazy they offer in addition to most others and well above PDX metro craft beer average. I also liked the smoothie beer during the hot summer months. Go ahead and do yourself a favor and go. With plenty of outdoor seating, great food and beer, quality and attentive service, you will leave stuffed and happy.

The pizza is good Detroit style. If you never tried Detroit style, give it a shot because it's very good , with the crispy cheesy crusts. A little pricey for one cheese slice, $7. The Caesar salad is OK but next time I would not get the cheese on it, or maybe not get it at all. It's not fresh Parmesan cheese. Think that powdered Kraft stuff that's not in the refrigerated cheese aisle of the grocery store. It pretty much ruined the salad.

The pizza here was the best Detroit style pizza we have had in the PNW. We had the Cesar salad and the turnpike pizza. The restaurant is right on the Vancouver waterfront. There is outside seating that pets are allowed to be in. The service was good. Our waitress tried her best to find a beer that was to my liking.

We got the Turnpike and it was great. The ricotta really makes it! The service was great, the waitress checked on us and brought everything we asked, and was super friendly. Outside seating is an option and the ambiance is great with it not being too crowded and the feeling of a bar. 10/10 recommend you visit

A nice addition to the wasteland. The service was nice but not overly attentive and the beer choices were tasty. The pizzas were a little ecclectic for my taste and the sauce was really sweet. I saw some kids really gobbling it up, but stopped at one piece. One person in our group ended up with 3 3/4 pizzas to take home due to the flavors. Will try again.

Good pizza, cheesy bread and service. They have a spot for your dog outside and offer water bowls and water.

I decided to treat myself to a solo pizza night on Friday and it turned out to be an amazing experience at this restaurant! The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating from the moment I walked in. They seated me outside with a wonderful view, which added the ambiance of the evening and continued to be attentive and genuinely nice throughout my visit. I ordered the Quatro Cheesy pizza along with a glass of Prosecco, and I was not disappointed. The pizza was so good (although more knife-and-fork pizza, not fold in half pizza), with a perfect balance of different cheeses that created a delish combination of flavors. The portion size was generous, and I had enough leftovers for two additional meals at home! I am already looking forward to returning to this spot with friends and family. The overall experience, combined with the scrumptious pizza and pleasant atmosphere, makes it a must-visit destination. If you haven't tried this place yet, I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed!

Food was great! It is so fun to have a yummy gluten free option and it was delicious! Drinks were yummy and the service was great!

Great ambiance being by the waterfront. Dined here last night and loved everything we ordered. Not sure how crowded it can get during the weekends, but when we arrived we were promptly greeted and seated. We ordered the Towering Trees and Something Marvelous (minus the bacon). It was a little spendy for one pizza (size of a sheet of paper), but honestly, it was enough for 2 meals. My husband and I both had leftovers for the next day. This place gives Ranch Pizza a run for its money.

The Green Knight!! Arrived on the menu today and it is delicious! Light, flavorful asparagus, basil, pesto sweet pepper, green onion, topped with a cheese crème drizzle. I forget all the names of the cheeses but they are so good together, and don't get me started on the deep dish deliciousness.. (my mouth is watering again) SO perfect for this early summer dinner celebrating with family :) Staff are friendly and awesome as always! We sat on the patio overlooking the waterfront, lovely landscape and great people watching;) Highly recommend:)

Second time coming here. Excellent pizza, beer, and service. Came here on a sunny Saturday afternoon around 12 and got seated outside immediately! Great views of the Columbia Only suggestion to the restaurant: consider doing 2x2 smaller size pizzas so we can order a few different types instead of committing to the 2x3. You have so many different types that we'd like to try!

5 stars for the ambiance, right on the waterfront (across the street, but with the 5-star view). Service was attentive and friendly. Menu has lots of IPAs and lighter beers. I'm a dark beer girl and there was one option--a dessert-type stout. Not my favorite. My husband loved the Song Spire, a west coast IPA. Pizza and some salads and snacks on the menu. This is Detroit-style pizza, which if you haven't had it is deeper dish, crispy on the crust and soft/spongey (maybe not exactly the right word) on the inside, baked in a square or rectangular pan. I LOVE the crust. I ordered the margherita (my go-to), with burrata and a drizzle of olive oil. It had fresh tomato (not local, farm fresh, it appeared), burrata and basil, added after baking. It was lukewarm, which is disappointing g, as I like my food right out of the oven. My husband ordered the Double Vision, which he liked a lot and didn't think tasted greasy. I thought maybe they held mine until his came out of the oven, but his was also not piping hot. Not sure why, as the restaurant wasn't busy. I do recommend and we'll likely be back. I'd give 3.5 stars today, but if the pizza is hot next time they'll get 4.

Yum yum yum. You're in for a treat! Try the bbq chicken it is out of this work with its tangy bbq sauce zing that will let your tastebuds wanting more!

confession--I'm at the crust collective at ruse brewing in Portland--am pie just fewer choices. I got The Randy. Probably should have read the menu more closely and seen that if "red sauce" wasn't mentioned, it might not be on the pie. this had ranch sauce instead but that still worked. Since there's more crust in detroit style, the curst takes on added importance, and the collectifve comes through--airy and crispy. Fine combo of ingredients--chicken barbecue sauce, mama lil's. And the pie is so darned pretty to look at. Plus have the pizza at one of the best breweries around, it's a home run.

I had to copy this from the original review under Crust Collective, as I created the original but someone created a new business page two days later and mine was hidden. We went on the Grand Opening. So two parts of the review. The beer from Ruse Brewing and the pizza. The beer. Do you like IPAs? I hope you do. Of the ten beers on tap, 7 are IPAS, the other three were a pilsner, a stout, and a smoothie ale. Pizza. It's Detroit style, which I dig generally. The place is a bit pricy. All of the pizzas are 20 bucks+. The cheesey bread? 17 bucks. They do have options for gluten free crusts and vegan cheese tho. It took over 45 minutes from ordering to the first pizza to arrive, 60 for our second. We were seated inside. The pizza is greasy. I don't mean "in general", I mean "even for Detroit style". The margherita was odd with the balsamic drizzle. The crust on that pie was better, but not spectacular. My partners pizza came out 15 minutes before mine (with forks and knives to eat it). My "Dial P" honestly tasted like the pepperoni you get in a Celeste frozen pie. It was greasy, had very little flavor, and the crust was oily. For the price, honestly you expect a bit more. Yes the tap water comes in a glass bottle. It's clearly a reflection of the gentrified neighborhood and incoming condos. The pizza is okay but not worth the price. Honestly Pizza Hut had a better Detroit style. I like IPAS but they need more diversity in the beer list too. We likely won't be back. I wouldn't really recommend this place. There is better Detroit style pizza elsewhere. Also went to the restroom and it wasn't clean. No toilet paper as well. It wasn't a good first impression to be sure.

"You're a real pizza work," is something you will be saying to your pizza at this place ! I had smelt the aromas and heard the stories but this place was much better than my expectations or any of the stories . Really small and packed with seats but the views outside are fantastic. We came on a weekend however there was no wait , we proceeded to order only one pizza between us and it was more than enough for sharing . So this wasn't my first time trying Detroit style pizza but I haven't had them so good before . For the uninitiated it is a thick, square-cut pizza with a crunchy, fried bottom layer of crust overflowing with delicious melted cheese. We opted for Towering trees which is a sauceless pizza however the lack of sauce was very well compensated by the mushrooms, garlic confit, french fried onion, mozzarella, arugula & truffle salt. I did not care about the arugula on top but the rest of the toppings went very well together . They also have a good beer selection along with other N/A drinks and a few salads. Pricing wise the pizzas range from $20-24 which I felt was reasonable . Service was very good , the pizza however does take some time to come out so don't come here if you are already on the verge of being hangry !

Quite expensive menu. But that's my personal blue collar opinion. If you want to tour around the waterfront park, I suggest bringing your own (budget friendly) foods with you to the park. Other than that the waterfront park is a nice walk

This is a really nice pizza spot with unique, flavorful dishes. It's located right on the water, so the view is really nice, and every dish I've tried so far has been really enjoyable. I'd say *definitely* get the goat cheese arugula salad or the beet salad if a salad is your vibe. :)

Had the tall tree pizza and it was great. One of the best I have had. Fresh and tasty. The service was exceptional.

I hadn't heard of this place before one of my friends moved into the fancy new apartments in this area, and I am floored. The crust was amazing, vegan cheese for those of us who don't do dairy, PICKLES ON PIZZA!?! So good I can't wait to come back! We ordered the cutlass supreme and the Miami slice, both with vegan cheese. They're a little on the expensive side and each would feed 2 kinda hungry people, but you're paying for the quality and taste here. The vegan cheese they use is actually quite good, and I'm still absolutely blown away by the pickles on the Miami slice. We ordered for pickup and still had about 10 minutes for our order to be ready, so we grabbed a drink while we waiting. My friend had a spritzer (I think this is their take on a white claw) and I had the "shoveling rain". Both of these are canned but brewed by Ruse. Since this place is fancy, they poured the cans into glasses for us, which let me see that my beer was nothing but dark deliciousness. The flavor was kind of chocolatey/coffee like. I ended up getting a 4 pack to take home, it was that good! On a Tuesday night at 7, this place was packed. Not sure if they do reservations, but you may want to plan to arrive early or be in for a wait.

Once a month my raven-haired muse takes me here and I eat my body weight in crispy Detroit-style crunchiness. Okay, I get full after two slices, but the intent to overindulge is there and the pizza is worthy of a bellyache. I'm also a sucker for a good sour ale to wash down a Friday feast, and Ruse has a great collection on tap. To recap: pizza great, beer great, two pieces is a smorgasbord, you should eat here. Five stars.

Delish Detroit deep dish with that crunchy crust and deep flavor! The Rosemary Ricotta was the cheese I didn't know I needed in my life. The service was perfect and the view is so calming and beautiful. We will be back for more!

On our recent trip from Portland to Seattle we stopped by Ruse for dinner. I was craving their smoothie beer--Florescent Farm--before we returned home. To accompany the drinks we got two pizzas and a salad. Everything was great! I can't recall the name of the pizzas, but one of them had mushrooms and arugula, and the other had sausage with red sauce atop the cheese. We preferred the mushroom/arugula one, as the sausage one didn't have that much sausage. The seasonal squash salad was also really good--hearty and sweet. We'll definitely visit again on our next road trip.

Delicious pizzas and great service! The beer was refreshing on a warm afternoon on the sidewalk with a river view.

Wow, this place has LEGIT pizza! Their gluten free option is unbelievable so much so you think it's not GF. They are small rectangular pizzas, deep dish but light. The flavors are outstanding. A must try!
