15% service charge for take out. Why, what service is the customer paying for exactly? The answer is of course nothing. $46 for a single pizza, closed the order window immediately. Been doing take out from here for years, no longer until this fee is removed.
Fodd was very delicious

I ordered to go so can’t speak for dine in however I have never had a better pizza in my life. I got the chicken bacon bbq pizza and I’m actually sad I’ll likely never get to come here again to eat it again lol.

Food was ok. Pizza was a little thicker than I like but tasted good. Hummus was great. Service was super slow but they were slammed with large crowds. The manager made it up to us and that was really nice of them. Atmosphere is really nice as it's in the village and there's live music and it's a nice place to hang out

The apple pecan salad was so good except for the yucky cheese on it. Please change it or have the option for a different goat cheese. The classic marinara pizza and calamari were good too.

Beautifully made pizzas and sides. Beverages were the perfect temperature. The music from the stage was great. Reasonable prices. 10/10 would recommend.

Our family came to eat lunch here over the 4th of July weekend. We were seated quickly and the service was awesome. My kids loved their cheese and pepperoni pizzas. My wife and I had the Smoky BBQ chicken pizza and thought it was great. Their take on the paper plane cocktail was also tasty. Would highly recommend if you’re visiting the Northstar area.

Nestled next to the ice rink at Northstar — that frozen carousel of affluent chaos and rental-boot blisters — Rubicon Pizza is the kind of place that reminds you why you love food in the first place: because it’s there when nothing else is. Like a good bartender or a reliable ex, it never lets you down. Even in the off-season, when the resort feels like a ghost town for rich people, Rubicon's lights are still on.
Now, let’s not get delusional — this isn’t Naples. You’re not sitting under a fig tree while Nonna flings dough in the air with a cigarette dangling from her lip. The pizza is a little pricey… but so is breathing at a ski resort. In this context, it’s a damn bargain. And more importantly, it's good. Especially the Thai chicken pizza, which sounds like something you’d scoff at at first glance — chicken, lemon, and white sauce? Sounds like a food court mistake. But it works. It’s weird in all the right ways. Like David Bowie in the '70s.
And let’s talk wings. I don't know what deal they made with the devil, but those things are crispy, spicy perfection. The kind of wings you order with full knowledge that you're going to destroy a napkin, your dignity, and still lick your fingers afterward. The salads? They have no business being that fresh or creative. Who comes to a pizza joint at a ski resort and says, “You know what? I’ll have the salad”? Well, at Rubicon, you wouldn’t be wrong. Somehow, they pull it off.
But the real story here is the people. The staff doesn't treat you like a customer; they treat you like that cousin who always brings a good bottle of wine to the party. They remember your name, your drink, and whether you bombed it on Lookout or cruised the greens. That kind of hospitality? You can’t fake it. It’s the kind of warmth that makes a cold beer even colder and a hot pizza even better.
Rubicon isn’t just a pizza place. It’s a refuge. A lodge for the hungry, the tired, the half-frozen. And it’s always there when the rest of the resort has packed up and peaced out. Come for the wings, stay for the people, and for God’s sake — try the Thai chicken pizza. You’ll thank me later.
