Pizza Garden

We haven't had a lot of luck with pizza out at the coast. At least not near Manzanita. Ones that we've tried have cost way too much and tasted like they were reheated frozen pizzas. All of that changed when we went to Pizza Garden. I actually really had to twist Mr. Kupcakes arm to even get him to give Pizza Garden a try because all of our experiences out there have been that bad.

There were a lot of different kinds of pizzas to pick from, but we finally decided on the Seafood deluxe with shrimp. The crust was thin, just like a good pizza crust should be, and cooked up crispy. All the toppings were very fresh and full of flavor. Overall, it was a very flavorful pizza cooked just right.

Since it was our first time there, we only got the pizza. They have a ton of other items on their menu and we plan on going back to check out more. Their desserts are supposed to be delicious. Can't wait to try some of that homemade ice cream.

What a pleasant surprise. I didn't expect too much coming in from the street but the inside was very clean and welcoming. They say all their food and deserts are from scratch and it certainly tasted that way. I had a manicotti special and my wife had a veggie hogie with side salad. We both liked our dishes. Then we had desserts; tiramisu cake and carrot zucchini cake. They were both delicious. They also make their own ice cream and sorbets. They were nice enough to give us a couple of sample scoops. I recommend the butterscotch. Way above what I expected for a pizza restaurant.   Service was spot on. It was a slow Sunday night but I would expect to wait longer when summer season comes. I will be back to try the pizza and enjoy the  lovely deck in the warmer weather.

I was surprised to find this on Happy Cow. (Happy Cow is a vegan/veggie app/website for restaurants.)

They have Daiya vegan cheese, super attentive staff, good organic coffee and a nice deck. I'm delighted to have found a place to eat at on the way to and from the coast. Being a vegan and going to the coast can be tricky if you like to eat out, not a lot of options but this is at the top of the list for me.
