Wood-Fired Pizza in Salt Lake City
Every pizza comes off the same wood-fired oven, with a garlic-oil crust as standard. Seven of them, $19 to $26, fifteen minutes up Emigration Canyon from downtown Salt Lake City.
The oven is the reason the building smells the way it does. It runs hot, it burns wood, and the kitchen was built around it — Neapolitan-style pies with a blistered, leoparded crust you do not get out of a conveyor deck.
Every pizza comes standard with a garlic-oil crust. Gluten-free dough is available for $3, as is vegan cheese.

Where To Eat It
Indoors, or with the canyon around you.
The downstairs dining room sits directly off the open pizza kitchen, so you can watch the oven work. When the season allows, the creekside lower patio and the treehouse-like upper patio are open — same oven, no walls.
Pizza is served at dinner: Monday to Thursday 5:00–9:00pm, Friday and Saturday 4:00–9:00pm, Sunday 4:00–8:00pm. Reservations are highly recommended on weekends.
