I simply don’t understand why we wait well over an hour every time we order pizza here while at Lorelei. Being experienced in pizza, I know for a fact that with a true wood fire oven, a pizza is only in the oven 90 seconds to 2 minutes. Literally 2 minutes max. I see this commonly at places like Mercurios.
I can’t for the love of me figure out why pizza here takes an hour. It doesn’t matter how many orders you have. I’ve had wood fired pizza all over the world and they can handle many orders just fine and still get you a pizza in well under 10 minutes. For this pizza to take an hour+ is absolutely unacceptable and I’ll never order here again.
It’s not about me being inpatient. It’s about the fact that this place has been like this since it opened. I understand being new and getting your footing. But wood fired pizza should not take an hour and 20 minutes to get to the table. That’s just ridiculous.

Always been a fan of Lorelei, but stepped into the woodfire side for the first time last night. Was super impressed with the wine store and with the to-go service! Their sommelier is fantastic! Great selection! My pizza and salad were incredible as usual. Thank you!

Ordered from Woodfired while at Lorelei. They gave us the wrong pizza initially (the regular Pepperoni instead of the Peppy Pep which includes additional toppings) and the pizza we got was very burnt. When I told the bartender at Lorelei that we got the wrong pizza, they very kindly put our order in again and took the pizza back. But when I got the right order, it turned out to be the same pizza, lukewarm, with the additional toppings. And still burnt.Listen, I get that super cooked crust is a legitimate pizza style, and the undercarriage was actually pretty decent. But the outer crust was so burnt that it was inedible. We also got the Kale Caesar, which was not bad.

DELICIOUS pizza (try the Peppy Pep!) and an awesome selection of wines. They only sell bottles that you can’t find at the state stores and stock lots of natural wine.The shop manager (who is also a sommelier) is SO nice and super knowledgeable. I always leave the shop with something new to try that I end up loving.Also highly recommend trying their wine classes when they offer them. You learn a lot and you get to try 3-4 wines in each class (reducing the risk of buying a bottle and then not liking it when you open it at home). They’re a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

first time at this place last week. purchased a bottle of riesling and a bottle of sauvignon blanc, along with a pepperoni pizza.the sauv blanc was okay.pizza wasn't anything great. vocelli's-tier pizza for $18.the riesling was the biggest let down. i love white wines. when i opened this bottle of wine and poured it into my glass, i was immediately disappointed. the wine was brown and spoiled. paid $36 for this particular bottle and it's undrinkable.if you're looking for pizza and wine, get pizza elsewhere and go to the fine wine and good spirits that's only a couple blocks away. you'll save money, and it'll taste better.
