Forestville Pizzeria

Pizza is over priced, I would rather drive down to Santa Rosa to a round table or mountain mikes. I try and support local business but unfortunately the quality is just not there. Staff is not very friendly, been here a few times trying to give it a chance but just not feeling it. Menu is posted online at their website.

Pizza was tasty but cannot hold up on its own. The biggest complaint that I have is the salad bar. You are given the smallest plate possible, literally the plate that goes under a tea cup, and you cannot go back for seconds. When asked if it was all you can eat we were told «absolutely not!» That is bad for business. Especially since I was only there for the salad. We had a large group but I wasn’t in the mood for pizza. I will never take my money there again. Poor customer service. The owner is so cheap he charges .50 per tiny ranch cup to go along with your pizza. It’s sad that it’s not ran better.

Absolutely terrible pizza. Customer service was awful as well. You’re better off getting a frozen pizza and making it your self.

Love love love Forestville Pizzeria! Great pizza, worderful friendly staff, nice clean restaurant. We try to stop by everyone we head to Cazadero and after driving from modesto, it always huts the spot :)

Great pepperoni, cheese, and winemaker pizza were tasty. The winemaker had Italian cheeses and cream cheese with port wine sauteed figs, caramelized red onions, and roast chicken breast with white sauce. I believe their mozzarella is whole milk so it’s much more rich and delicious than the usual skim milk cheeses. There just wasn’t enough of it in our pizzas.

Love the pizzaria! Eat there about twice a week (could be the reason why I’ve gained a few pounds.)
Don the owner is very friendly and spends a lot of time away from his wife and young children to make the pizza place successful. It can’t be easy.
Pizza is delicious, a bit pricey but all fresh veggies and just plain old amazing pizza! My favorite is the pesto breadsticks and the gluten free pizza. The employees have finally stabled out and they’re all friendly and presentable.
Love love love it here!

I’ve lived Forestville my entire life and was very excited to see a pizzeria open up in Forestville after the last two in the same location where mediocre and overpriced there’s a big niche for quality pizza here on the river and yet the first pizza I get from them look like somebody just didn’t care it was slap together the toppings I ordered barely covered one third of the pizza and it was covered in grease and both my friend and I felt sick afterwards but I really want them to succeed so since then I’ve tried quite a few other pizzas hoping that the cook in a better mood today or simply let go I know how hard it can be to find good cooks on the river so I don’t hold it against the restaurant since then the pizzas have been getting better the calzones are awesome the salad bar is nice and fresh the burgers are raves by some but yeah I find them too closely resembling a Big Mac and there’s already somebody well established in the town that sells a cheap burger I hope they can pull out of this low quality high priced food

I love the Pesto pizza with roasted chicken. Mmmm consistently delicious! Friendly staff, clean restaurant, and good food! I can’t really say anything bad about the place. Needless to say the staff always desserts a good tip ;)

Amazing salad bar with great choices, the best crust I have ever had on a pizza and great service!
I especially love the specialty pizzas. Great creations of toppings I would never think to combine on a pizza.
I highly recommend this place!

There has only been one occasion where I didn’t care for the pizza I ordered (it was very thin, yet still difficult to bite through and it was chewy… but not the type of chewy you want with food– my jaw hurt after the meal). Pretty consistent with the quality of their pizzas. Only knock on the spot is that it is slightly on the pricey side as far as pizza is concerned.

Very good pizza. I love that they offer GLUTEN free pizza! My favorite is the winemaker… Carmelized onions, chicken, figs, yum.
I appreciate the salad bar too…

Really good pizza, who knew…
Bigger than ya think portions!
Super friendly staff.
Try the Forestville Florentine…
Highly recommend!

We ordered take out from here last night. Excellent Pizza. Enormous size. Great reheated or cold this morning. The salad bar had a great selection to build a good salad.

So glad to have really good pizza in the neighborhood! The crust is light and crispy compared with others in West County. The pizza toppings are fresh and cleverly combined. Definitely worth a try!

Salad bar is really good with a good selection of fresh veggies, customer service is great, and a good selection of ales on tap. The pizza is good, the sauce had a string red wine taste to it. They have gluten free options as well as other food choices.

I called and asked about making a pizza ½ barbeque and half something else. «No, we can’t do that.» Uhhhh, you can’t? Ok??? He says we can make half and half with regular toppings, but not with specialty pizzas because they can’t do half and half with 2 different sauces. Uhhhhhhh, okay??? You «can’t» do that??? It’s «impossible»???
Look. I used to work in a pizza place. Painting half the dough with one sauce and the other half with another sauce is NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL. FURTHERMORE, if it’s so difficult, why do ALL OTHER PIZZA places have no problem doing it? Do the basic laws of physics cease to exist in the kitchen of Forestville Pizza? If two different sauces touch each other in the middle, will that set off some dangerous chemical reaction that will harm the pizza maker or burn down kitchen?
So rather than being customer-​centered and saying YES to a customer, this idiot says «we can’t do that.» Okay, so FINE, so DON’T sell me a pizza… DON’T take my 30 dollars. Smart business man!
I’ve eaten there in the past. The food is not bad. It’s not great, but what do you expect? It’s a little over-​priced. A large specialty pizza (god for bid you ask for half and half) is 30 bucks, whereas at Buddy Pizza (where the pizza is just as good or better) is 25 bucks. Furthermore, whenever I’ve entered Forestville Pizza in the past, you get the (I presume) owner’s teeny bopper daughter and/​or her friends at the cash register. They try. Sorta? But they are obviously immature little teenagers who don’t really understand how to greet customers and create the sort of atmosphere where you feel welcomed and want to come back.
All in all, this place is a major DUD.

Great service & delicious pizza. Loaded with toppings! Had it delivered to the b&b where we were enjoying local wines we’d purchased. Even included Parmesan & red pepper flakes without our asking. Such a great way to end our day of travel.

Great salad bar is the side salad to your sandwich. I had a BBQ chicken sandwich without the bread with a side salad. I cut up the chicken and added the salad to it. Very hum. See photos of right/​left of salad bar.

Had the Classic Combo, Dragon Breath Chicken and Forestville Florentine.
All three were great.
The only thing I did not like was the buffalo wings. There was no heat or real flavor. IMO it was just fried chicken.
Definitely going back for the pizza.

3 stars for the salad bar. It is usually stocked full of fresh veggies and they don’t charge by the pound!
2 stars for the pizza. I liked it well enough and the crust was perfect. Perhaps too much sauce, but at least it’s tasty. I split a personal pizza over 2 days and each day had rather unpleasant digestive issues. I’m thinking it has to be the cheese. Odd consistency, almost tooo gooey and stretchy…? I have had the margherita pizza and loved it. But thinking i will just stick to salads here.
As for atmosphere… it has none. Another reviewer said it all — a remodel during the winter sounds like a great idea! Or at least warm the place up a bit, and maybe take the party room advertisements off the windows? Forestvillians, and those who just work here, already know this.
Service is very friendly.
