Wood-fired sourdough pizza with unique toppings & a kale Caesar salad
"Yukon Pizza may have built its name on sourdough pies made with a prized heirloom starter, but its sleeper hit is a killer smash burger. Order it with double patties and all the fixings — American cheese, caramelized onions, crunchy house-made pickles, and a tangy burger sauce. You can get it with a side of fries. But insiders know to order the fried buffalo cauliflower with thick house-made ranch for dipping. What to order: The classic smash burger" - Janna Karel
"Yukon Pizza got its Las Vegas start in 2020, slinging pies out of the short-lived Vegas Test Kitchen. But it may be more accurate to say that Yukon Pizza got its start 125 years ago, when co-owner Alex White’s great-great-grandfather started a yeast culture while living in the Yukon Territories during the Klondike Goldrush of 1897. Pieces of the starter were passed down through his family until White received a jar of it as a high school graduation present. That heirloom sourdough starter remains the foundation of Yukon’s pizza crusts today — delightfully light and bubbly, slightly charred, and hardy enough to stand up to toppings. It’s impeccable in a zesty pizza of seasoned kale, spicy sausage, chipotle aioli, and garlic oil. And while it only makes an appearance on the menu a few times a year, a crab rangoon pizza marries sourdough crust with sweet-and-sour sauce, cream cheese, cilantro, and crispy wontons to mouth-watering effect. The earthy kale Caesar makes any table more complete, whether ordered as a starter or side. Know before you go: While Yukon started as a pizzeria, the team here has developed a banging smash burger, best ordered with a double patty and fries on the side." - Janna Karel

"Yukon Pizza uses a 125-year-old yeast starter to create sourdough crust pizzas with toppings like spicy sausage and seasoned kale, baked in a wood fire oven. The restaurant also offers a standout kale Caesar salad." - Janna Karel
