"There can only be one rectangular champion: the Detroit-style pies at Spark Pizza in Redmond. And not only is this the best square—it's one of the best pizzas we've ever sunk our teeth into around here. That's thanks to sauce jazzed up by both fresh and dried herbs, spiderweb-stretchy Wisconsin brick cheese, a toasted Cheez-It-like exterior, and extra smoky pepperoni topped with baked parmesan. Pair all of that good stuff with a crust that's sturdy along the bottom and springy in the middle, and you have a takeout pie that absolutely won't make it past the drive home. Just note that these beautiful hunks of midwestern joy are only available Tuesday through Saturday." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"There’s this group that goes around naming the top 50 pizzerias in the United States, and Spark in Redmond has made the list three years running. That explains why there’s a line on weekends here full of devoted regulars plus newbies wondering what the fuss is about. Spark does Detroit-style pies during the week and New York-esque joints on Sundays, but the classic Neapolitan pies are what got it on that list. The crust is light, airy, and chewy, a great vehicle for the wide range of topping options they have here." - Harry Cheadle
"This charcoal-painted cottage houses pizza on the Eastside that’s well worth dealing with any rush hour traffic. Spark’s blistered crusts have an impeccable balance between bouncy-puffy edges and crisp bottoms, and their topping repertoire is just as vast as it is reliable. You can eat a very pleasant burrata-topped margherita, or a spicy saag paneer pie that still feels right at home among all the pepperoni and fior di latte. With only outdoor seating available, prioritize a summer visit—or commit to eating this excellent pizza on the same patio, just zipped up in plastic coverings." - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo

"Just north of the Redmond Town Center shopping center, this wood-fired pizza restaurant offers charred, cloud-like Neapolitan-inspired pies and rotating pizza specials. Owners Carolyn and Tony Scott opened Spark Pizza after the success of their first Redmond restaurant, Woodblock. The menu also offers wines that pair well with pizza and a smattering of lighter bites and creative desserts like the orange and garam masala cannoli. Spark is open for on-site and takeout dining and has an outdoor patio and picnic area." - Brett Bankson
