Cellar 849

This place is AWESOME! It is one of the few places that I actually crave their food!  It is noisy and can be crowed, but everyone is super friendly and helpful and the food arrives fresh and fast to the table no matter how busy.  I also love that if I need to pick up dinner for the family, its healthy and quick (takes about 5 minutes for them to prepare the takeout order.

This was another first for me and I'm glad I had the chance to check it out. The restaurant itself isn't very big so even at 6-630 on a Saturday you're going to be waiting so come early and drop your name while you run next door for a quick cocktail.

The hostess was friendly but she had a really hard time giving us a solid wait time. She was nice enough to take our number and call us when our table opened up. When we returned we were sat immediately and our server, Kelly, started taking our drink orders. The beer selection is pretty decent and from what I perused it looked like they had several choices for wine. After we ordered drinks we started with the Spiedini which was a religious experience truly! Mozzarella wrapped in Prosciutto de Parma and oven roasted...more please. Bear in mind this is a tremendously salty dish but it's one you need to try. If I'm not mistaken ours was plated alongside a few slices of 849 Flatbread which is also phenomenal with it's rosemary sprinkle.

Next we ordered a couple pies starting with the Salsiccia...their homemade Italian sausage, basil and mozzarella. This was my favorite. Next came the Positano with arugula, Bufala mozzarella, mushrooms and shaved parmigiano with a drizzle of truffle oil if I'm not mistaken. I liked it but the pile arugula made this more like a salad and at $15 for a medium pie that's ultra thin I'd pass on this next time. The neapoilitan crust was pretty fantastic but I wouldn't recommend trying to get carry out if you want it to stay crispy. The pies are really thin and they're a little pricey here but I think it was a great experience and aspects of the meal would certainly cause me to come back for more.

Went to Cellar 849 with my cousin who lives close to it and has frequented it. It was only a short wait to get in (good timing), but the place was packed and bustling (an loud)! We shared an antipasti salad which was good, and an "Americano" pizza. The pepperoni on the pizza were the best kind, little cups full of greasy goodness. The crust was typical Napoletana pizza style, flat & relatively thin, but not overly crispy.

This is definitely a niche pizza place. Very urban & chic, to fit in with the downtown Plymouth atmosphere. Parking can be a disaster, so be prepared to really work for a spot.
