There is a saying around Pizzicato: “without you there is no us” — this refers to the amazing people that choose to be a part of our restaurants. One of the best is Amanda, she delivers her unique brand of genuine and caring service atop Sylvan hill. Her personal dedication to our product and the environment has sparked many meaningful discussions surrounding our own sustainability. That’s why she was chosen as Pizzicato’s Employee of the Month.  She does us proud and her authentic enthusiasm is a joy to be around.  Next time you visit our Sylvan location, congratulate Amanda for a job well done.

Spread the word… Pizzicato has just added more Gluten-Free menu items.  Now EVERYONE can enjoy our amazing pizzas, salads and appetizers.  In fact, March’s Pizza Special was created especially for our homemade gluten-free crust.  A mix of three Oregon-grown wild mushrooms, Chevre, red and yellow peppers and roasted garlic top this deliciously different pizza crust.  It’s so good, many of our gluten tolerant customers order it too.

You’re busy, busy, busy.  But you’re organized, right?  So plan ahead and order your Pizzicato Pizza “half baked.”  Because the best way to eat Pizzicato is right out of the oven… even if it’s your own!  You can pick your pizza up any time after 11, then keep it refrigerated until you’re ready to eat.  Preheat your oven to 475 and in 4-5 minutes your Pizzicato Pizza is ready and tastes JUST LIKE we made it in the restaurant. P.S.  You can order a salad at the same time.  We’ll make sure to put the dressing on the side.

Pizzicato is partnering with local startup “BLine” to spread the word about sustainable urban delivery.  BLine operates a fleet of trikes that pull small trailers filled with products that need to get to and fro within Portland.  This reduces congestion and C02 emissions in our downtown core, and in many cases delivers products to their destinations in less time.  If you see one of the trikes with a quirky Pizzicato message, please wave to the friendly rider.  He or she just might have some ‘free slice’ coupons for you! For more information on BLine, go to their website at www.blinepdx.com.

WHAT MAKES OUR CRUST SO GOOD?

Easy.  The flour we use is harvested in our own back yard:  Pendleton, Oregon.  Picture vast, lush and rolling acres of Eastern Oregon wheat, cultivated with care and milled into nutritious, unbleached flour. We did some quick calculations and found that Pizzicato purchases over 200 tons of high gluten ‘Power Flour’ EVERY YEAR from  Pendleton Flour Mills. So if buying local is as important to you as it is to us, you can actually feel proud to eat at Pizzicato. We’re honored to work with Pendleton Flour Mills and our other local partners.
