Overview

Part of renowned Seattle chef Tom Douglas's restaurant empire, Serious Pie opened in 2006 and quickly redefined pizza in the city. The restaurant specializes in artisanal wood-fired pizzas with a distinctive oblong shape and blistered crust. What sets Serious Pie apart is its commitment to high-quality, seasonal ingredients and unexpected topping combinations that elevate pizza to gourmet status. The original downtown location features an open kitchen centered around the wood-burning oven and communal tables that create a lively, convivial atmosphere. The restaurant's popularity often results in wait times, particularly during peak dining hours.
