Ruse Crust Collective Slabtown

This was our second awesome experience at the Crust Collective. The Detroit-style pizzas were beyond tasty. The service was super friendly, competent, and made the whole experience next level. Andy was a total hero. And the beer was just terrific, as you’d expect from Ruse. This is going to become a regular for us. My wife loves it, and she doesn’t normally like pizza! 🍕

The Monty sandwich is sooo gooood. I’m eating it right now as I type this. Great atmosphere and service, the bread is also fresh and made in house. I highly recommend

My favorite pizza place in Portland- we (Fraley + Company) designed the space so naturally we love the atmosphere! The pizzas are varied and all delicious, absolutely love the crust. Ruse beer never disappoints, the Shifting Dreams rice lager is my personal favorite. The craft cocktails are delicious, try the Psychic Reading next time you visit.

Such a fun place! Loved the detroit style pizza, and salads were great. And, even though mostly beer forward, they had a great wine list! Alicia, Nicole and Justin were amazing - they were friendly and made some great suggestions for our stay! Thanks to all for adding some fun to our trip!

Tried the double vision pizza. In my opinion the ratio of crust to cheese and sauce was off, too much cheese. The entire pizza was pretty sweet overall which was surprising. Really generous helping of pepperoncini, probably too much of equal to amount of pepperoni. Tries the ranch and that was fine. Overall preferred Ranch PDX for similar style pizza and for ranch specifically. Music is like folk country but nothing our table enjoyed. Atmosphere is cute with the art lights and plant. Service was okay. Really attentive to start to get our orders and then totally fell off. Didn’t check in after dropping off pizza. Eventually came back to pick up everything . Water is given by Carafes which is nice over a water station but we never got a refill despite being there for a while and finishing our water while still eating the pizza. Not very busy to not have refills or check ins. No need to return

Good service, host was very nice, the pizza was really good but there wasn’t a lot of variety in the beer menu; definitely will come back

Tried the grand royal and the green knight. Grand royal was honestly not great…just very bland. The green knight was much better… lemon ricotta was amazing . It’s really 25 -26 bucks for a pizza that will feed two.
