SouthCreek Pizza Co.

Preface: I love pizza, and I've honestly not had very good experiences with brick oven pizza in the past. The missus and I had a pizza craving during a trip into reno. She was craving a brick oven pizza so after a quick search of the googles we settles on this place. We arrived a little after 1pm, so it wasn't very busy and we were seated right away. Unfortunately, the chair and table we sat at had a pretty bad wobble forcing me to rest my weight on the leg to stabalize it. But that is the only negative I have. I ordered their special (don't recall the name exactly), and the wife ordered a 2 topping pizza. And we settled on the Garlic Shrimp appetizer. The shrimp came with some cooked crust cut into wedges like breadsticks and I could of just eaten those wedges all day. It had just enough crisp on the outside with that fresh softness inside. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the garlic butter was on point. Next, pizza... I love pizza if I haven't mentioned this yet. And this could very well have been my best pizza to date. I was worried as oven fired pizza tends to be thin and I love a good crust. The sauce had a sweetness to it that went perfectly with the savory cheese and the crust. The special had a lot of different meat toppings all cooked perfectly and seasoned so well. I ate the whole pizza, no amount of willpower would allow for leftovers. Lastly, but not in the last bit any less than awesome was the young lady who was our server. Never once did she not have a warm smile on her face. She was polite, kept tabs on our needs without feeling like she was interrupting or meal and helped me find the right pizza as I wasn't sure what I wanted. All in all it was a bit pricey for a everyday kinda thing, but don't pass this up. It's worth the price trust me.

Here is some amazing pizza. Puffy, chewy crust with a little crispness. The sauce was great, fyi if you like a saucy pizza ask for extra, that is my only criticism. I would for sure go back.

Ivan was my beertender and most excellent server!! Pizza was fabulous! 10/10 🔥! Will definitely be back. Hands down the best pizza in Reno!

I asked if the sauce and crust were were made w/o sugar, but doubt that the "yes" answer was correct: yeast is often activated with a small amount of sugar and sugar is added to tomato sauce to balance with acidity. I was thrilled to be told that there was no sugar used, but I am so sensitive to it (in an odd way I won't go into), that my body's reaction told me otherwise. Rats! I thought I had found pizza that was could be eat. That said, it was delicious!

The restaurant is very beautiful both inside and outside. The wood oven makes you think of a good pizza, but the pizza chefs (I think there are 3 or 4) are not up to the standard of a real Italian pizza chef, which is a shame. Also the staff is not knowledgeable about the menu. The pizza dough has no flavor.

I just moved here from New York City 4 months ago. Anyone who knows me knows I am a pizza fanatic yet relatively hard to please because of how spoiled I grew up with pizza. This by no small margin is the best pizza I have had since moving to Reno. Everything about this is ACES. I will probably need to take out a loan to support my new SouthCreek Pizza Habit. Got myself Pepperoni and Shrimp. I had to stop eating it to write this review because everyone needs to know how good this is.

My family thought this pizza was delicious! We liked the pepperoni as well as the arugula lemon pizza (we also added prosciutto). I appreciate that they gave us the arugula on the side to add when we got home so it wouldn’t be wilted. Will definitely go back next time we are in Reno!

This place is a hidden gem! They have the best pizza! The crust comes out thin and bubbly. The salads are great too! A small is definitely enough split between 2, even possibly 3, for an appetizer. I got the pear one with goat cheese, cranberries, and walnuts. It was so good! Their ranch is housemade with fresh dill. Delicious! My mom LOVES the hot honey! I got the spinaci and added arugula at the end. My mom got the Frankie p and added fresh jalapeños.

We decided to beat the heat and order take out instead of cooking this Sunday and we're so pleased to see Southcreek was open! Had a large to go order of 8 pizzas & 2 large salads and it was ready in 20 minutes of calling. We got a variety of pizzas from our favorites and they had something to everyone- heat seeker, Frankie P, Mikey, Margarita, the Joe (a non dairy), and Linda were among our favorites. The tasty wood fired thin crust pizzas aren't the only stars of the show here- We put the salads (a Caesar and garden salad) in two large bowls and the guests thought they were home made and commented how good they were. The pizzas being thinner crust do get cold quickly being take out and aren't quite as piping hot as in the restaurant but were still great and fed this hungry crew!

**Takeout Review Only*** - High expectations but this just missed the mark for a few reasons. We did takeout because we called and the guy on the phone couldn't tell us average wait time at 5 pm. Then when we arrived there, at 7:20 pm to pick up our food, the place was 3/4 empty on a Saturday night. So we ended up eating out of the trunk of the rental car. Very disappointing as we would have liked to experience our meal dining inside. On the bright side, our food was ready right when we got there. Hostess was very pleasant and nice. When we picked up our food, the pizza was somewhat limp. We had the Frankie P, pear salad and ribs because someone on YouTube said the ribs were excellent. Sadly they were the worst item. They were dry. It was like they were made a few days ago and they reheated way too long. It needed a sauce to handle the dryness. When the salad is the star for a pizza place, that's when you scratch your head and wonder whether it is worth eating there again?

Pretty good pizza A bit expensive, but still worth a visit. I'm very picky when it comes to pizza but I'd say try it out if you're in the area. Pretty good service too!

I came here for my son's birthday. He ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza all to himself. He did not finish it but said it was delicious. We also got the garlic shrimp appetizer. The shrimp had so much flavor. I ordered "The Linda" it has ricotta, lemon, honey and more but those are the flavor combos I love. The service was great. Everyone was friendly.

The staff consistently shines no matter what year, day or time we visit. The decor of the restaurant is well thought out and they are opening the patio seating soon. Other important thing to note, the best damn napkins in ALL of Reno! They are large, strong and pure perfection. These napkins could whoop ass on a Twisted Tea! Speaking of Tea, the real deal. The flavor profile is off the damn hook, I need a gallon of this every day for optimum results. The open kitchen where you can watch you pie get worked is fantastic! A real wood fired pizza oven is no joke. So may cool entrees and apps from this unit. The Mozzarella app is along with the garbanzo beans. Every pizza is delicious, and we always get the "pear a dice" - pear/arugula/honey, smoked blue cheese dessert pie.

If you're a pizza lover in Reno and haven't tried South Creek Pizza, you're seriously missing out. This place is a hidden gem tucked away in South Reno, and it's all about the brick oven. You can taste the difference--crispy, slightly charred crust with that perfect chew, bubbling cheese, and fresh toppings that feel straight from an Italian market. The brick oven is the heart of the kitchen and you can see it right when you walk in. Watching the pizzas go in and out of that glowing fire makes the whole experience feel rustic and authentic. I tried the Margherita and the Prosciutto Arugula--both were outstanding. The ingredients are clearly high quality, and the balance of flavors is spot on. The atmosphere is cozy, the service is friendly, and the wine list has some great options to pair with your pizza. Whether you're stopping in for a casual dinner or celebrating something special, this spot delivers every time. Five stars for the food, the vibe, and that glorious brick oven. South Creek Pizza is the real deal.

This is an example of how you should feel after eating out. The ambiance was so cozy, the service was perfect and the Pizza and other plates we ordered were excellent. We arrived before the dinner rush, so we really took our time enjoying the nice ambiance and deciding what to have. We started with the Meatballs appetizer. The serving was 5 meatballs, which was a perfect serving for my husband and I. They were really moist and flavorful and the Marinara sauce was very tasty. Next we shared a Garden Salad served with a Red Wine Vinaigrette. All of the ingredients tasted really fresh and the Vinaigrette was light yet flavorful. The best part of our dinner though was our Pepperoni Wood-fired, Brick-Oven Pizza. The dough was crispy and with a perfect amount of saltiness, the Marinara sauce so tasty and loved the crispy edges around the Pepperoni. SO GOOD!! We've really had some misses lately with dinner, but so happy with our experience here today. Also, we really appreciate the excellent service from our server Kevin. Altogether, it was all 5 stars!

I visited SouthCreek Pizza with my husband for their happy hour which is Mon.-Thurs. from 3:30 - 5:30. The draft beers were half off so I ordered a sour blueberry ale that hit the spot. For food, we ordered the Solstice Salad, and it was amazing! It was loaded with mixed greens, Gorgonzola, cranberries, and juicy pears. It was so big that my husband and I shared it and it was the perfect start to our meal. The service was top- notch thanks to Millicent, who was attentive and friendly. We also ordered a Bianca Pizza and a Margarita Pizza. Those two pizzas were half off during happy hour times! The Bianca pizza was delicious and the Margarita pizza was a little burnt on the crust. All in all, it was a Relaxing evening out with my hubby, and we'll definitely be back!

Millicent was great. The pizza is great. They have a pretty good happy hour We ordered the margarita de Blanco pizzas for 10 bucks each. And they have beer specials and wine specials on their happy hour for the house wine. Definitely a place to check out and try for the happy hour 3 to 530. It's a must try in S. Creek Shopping Center right off old foothill Road.

After not feeling the love somewhere else, we went to Southcreek Pizza right around 4pm for dinner. We were nicely greeted, immediately seated, and promptly served by Kevin. We found the place to be nice and cozy and perfect for a glass of wine while we waited for a meatball appetizer. We then ordered a garden salad and a hand crafted-wood fired-brick oven pepperoni pizza. Although, the food was delicious, what made our night was the incredible service provided by Kevin.

No joke,this is hands down the best pizza I've ever had. We stopped by South Creek while visiting from Los Angeles, and every bite was incredible. The flavors were rich but still light, perfectly balanced... just absolute perfection I'm usually a low carb girly and put down four slices

Nestled in South Reno, one of our favorite pizza joints South Creek Pizza lives! With a cozy mountain-tavern vibe, it's always a great place to visit, especially after you hit the slopes on a cold winter day. If you're ever looking for the perfect-sized pizza for two, you're in luck. And for different pizzas that are unique but tasty, you're DEFINITELY in luck. My husband and I always opt for the Heat Seeker, which we quickly deemed our go-to since we love spicier fares. We typically have three pieces each and never have leftovers! It's so yummy! Overall, great restaurant. Clean with great service with a smile, and with employees who always have some great conversation with us, we definitely recommend this restaurant if you're looking for some good comfort pizza.

Patio season is upon us an Southcreek is def a spot you need to be at to soak it all in. There's so much to love about outdoor dining here. For one, the space is nicely shaded with large trees around and some beautiful landscaping. Second, it's kid friendly and a place where you can let them roam a bit without interfering with any other diners, especially if you get a table near the edge. Third, the same great service you enjoy inside extends outside! In the time since my last visit they've expanded their wine selection and offer some really nice bottle options, perfect for a pair or a small party. The staff knows them all well and it's a lot of fun to choose one here. Now onto the food... The pizza special is always a must. I don't care what it sounds like, get it and you will enjoy. We got the recent addition and I loved the fresh jalapeño infused ricotta, which paired up with the rich and tangy tomato sauce and bacon, and lightened up the pie in a delightful way. Salad is another must here, and I usually go for the Daggi, but a classic cesar was beckoning to me, and theirs has anchovies! I enjoyed the presentation too, with each large leaf of romaine dressed! Other notables would of course be The Linda, Smoke Creek, white or red sangria, and literally anything else on the menu. GO!

This is one of my favorite pizza spots in town. I love the thin crust and unique flavors of their pizzas, especially pizzas that include honey and different cheeses like the Linda.

South creek is, in my opinion, one of the best pizza spots Reno has. I love the unique flavor combinations and the pizza oven flavor. I went on an extremely busy night and the food came out very fast even so. All of the staff we talked to throughout the night were kind and very accommodating. There is quite a bit of room in here with a cozy and friendly environment. The bar is great to sit at if you are trying to get in and out quickly also.

Well, I've done quite a few reviews on South Creek. Why? Because it's so awesome... from tip to tail! The staff, the ambiance, the food... never been anything less than 5 . Was hanging out with a new someone this evening and - even though I have my go-to pizzas (the Pear-A-Dice and the Smoke Creek) - I was feeling adventurous and encouraged him to order. The Heat Seeker! That's one I hear frequently ordered but had never tried... OMG, it was delicious! The way the jalapeños cook in the wood-fired oven make them taste more like green bell peppers than spicy jalapeños... absolutely delicious and not too hot. (In fact, I put more red pepper flakes on mine.) But let's also talk about the staff! Renee was super awesome.... Very tuned in to our needs and kept checking in on us... and this was on an incredibly busy Friday night!! Thank you, Renee, for making our date night extra special! Lobe this place... go... go now!

This is such a great place for pizza, but they also serve delicious appetizers. We visited this weekend and didn't feel like a full meal so ordered a few shareable plates. The shrimp, meatballs and ricotta cheese on toast points were all great, especially paired with a glass of house red wine. Service here is always some of the best-they make you feel like family! Highly recommend!

One of my favorite pizza places in town. Always fresh ingredients. Fun atmosphere as well! A south Reno must!

This place is great. We have been aiming at coming here for years. Finally made it. Amazing place inside. Great decor. Great staff as well. Really good selection of eccentric brews and really great pizzas. We had 2 pizzas. The classic margarita and the heat seeker. Both amazing Napoli style pizzas. We can't wait to return.

If you're looking for a great tasting pizza and family atmosphere this is the place. Our server Hannah described all of the unique toppings and history of the South Creek Pizza Company. The pizza is handcrafted and fired in a brick oven that hits 900 degrees. We enjoyed the garlic shrimp and truffle shuffle pizza.

I gotta start with the service! This place knows how to really make you feel welcome. We came in with every intention on sitting and having a nice meal together as a family. Unfortunately our toddler had other plans. We had to get our pizzas to-go. Our server was amazing in helping us accomplish this lol. Not to mention the food was ridiculously good. Had the Mikey and the kids half pepperoni and half cheese. Definitely top three all time pizza places.

The bread was delicious, I must admit! We tried the Truffle Shuffle and Mikey Pie pizzas. The Truffle Shuffle had a more distinct flavor, while the other one was average. Two pizzas and one appetizer were enough for three people.

I finally figured out why the pizza is so damn good. It's because their oven and pizza dough are from Italy! And they use only top quality ingredients! YUM

You need to look for this place. Think Treasure Map. Because once you find it, you'll want to go back again and again. We started with the Ribs - which were amazing. Fall off the clean bone .. perfect. Just the right touch of spice. Daggi Salad - SO GOOD. How come I can't make salads this good at home? Sigh. Honestly, I can't remember the names of the two pizzas we tried. One was on the "specials" menu and the other off the reg menu. All I remember is .. well, there was a problem. Ok, we took home left overs and my DH ate all our left overs in the middle of the night and I never got to enjoy them for breakfast. Service was fine, ambiance is rustic. I can't wait to go back!

I love this spot if you're looking for unique, delicious, brick oven pizza. They have a large selection of pizzas that I would recommend trying, but they do have a build your own pizza option if that's more your style. I continually come back and order the Nomad. It's heavenly. The also have a fantastic Cesar salad with authentic dressing. Service is always top notch. It can get busy during the weekends but definitely worth it!

This is such a great pizza spot in South Reno. Good selection of pies, wine and beer for a great night out. Everyone is always nice and helpful and has a laid back vibe. The crust on a pizza isn't my thing but here it is so good. Definitely worth the price or admission.

Absolutely the best crust for wood fired pizza in Reno! Give me just a crust with the chunky tomato sauce that comes with the meatballs and I'd be happy! Garden pie that my wife had was excellent, and even better when she added anchovies. My Frankie P with onions subbed for hot soppressata was amazing. The high quality ingredients and savory red sauce were excellent. The meatballs were of the firmer variety, but excellent flavor mixed with the chunky tomato sauce. It's been a few years since we've been here and they seem to have corrected the sort of indifferent service attitude we experienced back then and our service was excellent. They were down a server but Hannah was great and a few other servers checked in to make sure we were taken care of. The atmosphere was lively and decor is very comfortable. We'll be back for our next craving!

SouthCreek pizza is a 5 star establishment. The family vibes are really welcoming. The pizza is high quality and delicious and they have great lunch options. I also loved the chicken Caesar sandwich. It was fresh and perfect and the bread is basically their pizza dough! So good.

South Creek Pizza. Does it look like we got everything on the appetizer menu? We did.. and a pizza and affogato. We liked the meatballs, ribs were ok, slightly too chewy for my liking. Garbanzo beans were also only ok. Service was great!

Pricey for lunch, but the pizza is always excellent. We started with pizza points and fresh ricotta -- absolutely excellent. Then one lunch special 8" Margherita with salad and one Pear-A-Dice. Both pizza's were quality. The left-over Pear-A-Dice was even good the next day. Beer and wine selections are great. Service very attentive and friendly. Cozy even during the lunch hour. We always return.

I have always been a fan of south creek We had dinner there Friday the 18 th of July Not sure why the gentleman making pizzas was using his bare hands to assemble pizzas and no gloves? ‍ maybe the health department needs to stop by As much as i love their pizza not sure I will be back

Excellent crust! Ingredients high quality. Caesar salad was really good. Crisp romaine creamy dressing. AND anchovies! I highly recommend !!

Service was super and the pizzas were tasty. We ordered the large daily special which was very flavorful and a junior pepperoni. Both great! Also a dinner salad to share- We will return as it was so good we didn't have any left to bring home!

The absolute BEST wood fired pizza I've had! We ordered a margarita and a pizza (can't remember name) but it had salami, sausage, hot honey, and a few other things on it. We both loved our meals! I got a coke and they serve the Mexican kind in the glass bottle which is so much better. One nice touch was they bring you a small plate of fresh Parmesan, dried oregano, and dried hot peppers. The bartender / waitress gal was so warm and friendly! It was fun sitting at the bar, watching the diverse group of younger (mostly 20's, early 30's) group of staff all work so well like a well oiled machine! If you want more than just mediocre pizza, go visit this place! I can't wait to go back

I'm Italian (born and raised) and to me this is the most authentic pizza in town. Plus the service is excellent every time I go there regardless of the person who serve us that day.

Service going down hill This used to be a great spot ... nice ambiance and outdoor patio; great pizza But on the last (recent) 2 occasions the service has been a let down ... waited 20 minutes for drinks ... asked for water that never came ... asked again ... waited yet another 15 minutes The bill was incorrect and pizza just ok; I'll have to give it a pass

Mr. Sexton top of the line bartender server host and assistant manager man of many skills and titles. Couldn't have asked for a better assistant manager to such a wonderful pizza joint. It does not compare to where Mr. Sexton originally came from being under the umbrella of Dave and Linda former owners of the long loss Black Rock Pizza in Sparks, NV. He brought great atmosphere to this restaurant lots of cheers always represented Packers and Nevada at heart. Treated his team well and would go above beyond for Ian current owner of South Creek pizza! I am going to miss Mr. Sexton's excellent service hopefully someone there can fill in his shoes. Go Pack!

Good place to get some local pizza. The pizzas are a good size to a few different ones between your table. The Nomad pizza is where it is at, always suggest that. The ribs are also good too. Service is friendly and they have patio seating when the weather is good. Overall a good place to grab lunch or dinner.

We came in for pizza with our two little kids! We ordered quick because no one napped and boy was it fast and delicious! It was super good pizza, even the kids pizzas were good! I had a watermelon blonde on tap that did not disappoint. My only regret is I didn't take a picture of the food! Our server was super nice too!

We've been on the search for the best pizza according to our personal tastes and South Creek hits the spot! It's been awhile since we've been and so happy we've rediscovered them. I ordered the Garden Pie (veggie) pizza and added anchovies and it was delicious! The flavors all melded together to create great bites, although I would ask for a lighter sprinkling of anchovies! The wood-fired baking of the anchovies gave it an amazing smoky taste. My hubby ordered the Frankie P and he also loved it. We both agreed the crust has the perfect chew and consistency and it has flavor. Some crusts out there have no flavor. The Solstice salad with the apples and cranberries was tasty too. We also tried the meatballs. Order comes with 3 for )12.00--a bit pricey for the serving size. They were okay, but the sauce it is served with is amazing and delicious. The sauce elevated the so-so meatballs. Service was challenged because they were down a server, but Hannah did her best. She was also the friendliest and kindest server we've had at South Creek over the years. Finally they're more personable, instead of aloof and uncaring. Kudos to management for improving their servers interactions with diners! We'll be back and try more kinds of pizzas. The outside patio is lovely too!

Had date night with the fiance and absolutely loved our experience here at South Creek for the first time. We came around 6pm and it was decently busy! Everyone was out in the patio section and that's where I wanted to go and we were seated right away. Our waitress was so sweet and she helped us decide what drinks we wanted. I got the white sangria and it was so good I could've chugged it and have 3 more! We did get any appetizers but we ordered the Frankie P pizza. It didn't take too long before we had pizza in front of us and it was sooo good! The crust was airy soft but with a slight crunch. The perfect crust in my opinion. The ingredients tasted fresh. Good amount of sauce and cheese. Good portion for two people. We sat on the patio for awhile since the string lights and ambiance was so peaceful for a Friday night out. I highly recommend this place!

The food was excellent. I love the different blends of flavours available. The Pear-a-dice was amazing; it had the sweetness of the pear combined with the cheese makes it a top choice for me. The one food complaint for me is that the crust is too large into the pizza. I don't want a 3" crust I would prefer a 1". Today's service was way better than it had been in the past. Our hostess was attentive and she did a good job or making sure that we had everything that we needed. She did take a while to bring us the check but that's okay we were enjoying our visit. I would recommend this place. It was also very clean I appreciated the specials that they offered this time too!

Renee was amazing recommend the ribs and they were delicious! Ivan was our bartender and was great. Excellent service excellent service!

I know, I know, I've reviewed SouthCreek Pizza before. But last night was a special occasion (the 50th anniversary of our first date which included pizza), so I thought it would be appropriate to review again. Renee was our server again and when we told her we wanted to "dine", she was totally onboard. Our bottle of excellent Cab came almost at the same time as our appetizer. Renee checked back on the tempo of our meal and then brought our delicious Caesar salad. We had a little wine and then, having inquired about our readiness, brought our garden pizza. Delicious! To top it off, Renee told us they would send us home with a dessert to keep the celebration going. Very nice touch. Renee helped make a special occasion even more special. Thanks to Renee and the entire staff for a great and flavorful evening.

Our favorite local artisanal pizza. Love the salads, roasted cauliflower, and seasoned chickpeas. Lovely relaxing clean ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating options.

This za is sooooo tasty! We have been here four times and have only lived in reno for four months. Wood fired crispy deliciousness. All Of the servers are kind and very attentive to your beverages and clearing dishes once complete. The brunette with fun nails is awesome (sorry I forgot your name). The shrimp appetizer is zesty and the chili oil dipped in that flatbread naan thing is delectable. The wedge salad is giant and def a share. The truffle shuffle with some of that tangy honey and ... fried pancetta? Whatever she suggested to top it with. I ate 3 slices like a boa constrictor.

We have been going here for a few years now and we have worked our way through the menu. Everything we have tried has been excellent. The pizza is neapolitan style, hand tossed with house made mozzarella. The crust has a chew to it but is also a bit crispy. If you are familiar with neapolitan style you will put this at the top of your list. Hands down the best in reno for this style. I have made the pilgrimage to pizzeria bianco in phoenix (best pizza in the world according to netflix docuseries) and this pizza can hold its own up against supposedly the worlds best. The appetizers here are very well executed. We love the shrimp scampi, but the meatballs and ribs are also delicious. The salads are also amazing and very fresh. I typically get a caesar and it is perfectly finished with a tangy house made dressing. The ambience is upscale but comfortable with plenty of seati g indoors as well as a secluded patio. Also, the wait staff are some of the best we have experienced in reno. We like going here for lunch and getting a pizza salad combo. It is the perfect amount of food for us and we don't leave stuffed. They have small size pizzas or a larger personal size. They have always beem receptive to making one-off modifications to the menu, like my personal favorite of adding shrimp to a margharita pizza. If you want a truly relaxed and enjoyable dining experience this is the place for you. If you are looking for a place with thick crust that you can heap every possible topping on and get it for $10 you might want to go to pizza hut.

Ooo this pizza good. Like really good. I've never felt this way before about a pizza.

I ordered 2 pizzas tonight, 5/4/25, and was totally disappointed. We picked them up according to the online order instructions. Both pizzas were very soggy on the bottom and freezing cold. I've always enjoyed Southcreek, but not sure I will ever go back. All of this and it cost $52.00!!!!
