Walked in, was ignored. Husband went to the register to ask about outside seating because the restaurant was currently full but there was no line, lady was short with him that it wasn't a thing with attitude. Then he nicely asked if it's just wait to be seated then when a table opened up and she told him that they were full and he could get something to go and had an attitude. Not a pleasant vibe and made us walk out the door. I'm not one to write negative reviews or reviews at all for the matter, but she had a nasty aura and my husband was nothing but pleasant. We were fine waiting but they didn't want to deal with us and were just trying to get us to leave it seemed like.

I called asking if they did curb side pick up and the guy who answered the phone was very rude. So disappointed because we really wanted to try this place out!

Visiting from San Diego and blown away by the quality of their pizza and garlic knots. You can taste the difference in their quality of cheese and their marinara sauce is noticeably superior. I almost never dip my bread in marinara but the I couldn’t get enough of this savory sauce.

First time eating here. It was very good pizza. I had the Mamma Mia. Nothing crazy but that's the point. It's pizza. Keep it simple. Also had the meatballs AMAZING! I'll definitely stop in again when in the area.

I went here yesterday and ordered 2 specialty pies. They were cooked good.The dough and the sauce were bland tasting. Pizza had no flavor. Wasn't worth the $50.

In the mood for pizza?? This is the place! My husband and I love locally owned restaurants and businesses. We were in west Knoxville and in the mood for pizza. We checked on Yelp and found The Pizza Kitchen. The reviews were very positive and encouraging. We were not disappointed. The pizza was delicious and hot. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Will definitely visit again!
Just moved to the area from NJ. We were missing good pizza until someone recommended this place to us. WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED. My husband picked up some spinach and artichoke dip (the best we've ever had) and two custom made pizzas. They came out perfect. One of them being a GF cauliflower crust for our son with a gluten allergy. And the stuffed mushrooms?! FAHGETTABOUDIT. We came back in person to order again. Aesthetic? PERFECT for rock/Elvis fans. Each table has a little lantern on the wall, cute for a date. Seriously the best pizza around. You will not be disappointed. Come to find out, the guy that made our food is from NJ. No wonder the food is so good

Pizza was delicious! The wedge salad was so fresh and the balsamic reduction just took it up a notch. The service was also great. Super nice people!

Great pizza! This is some of the best in the area. It's a pretty simple place- walk up to the counter to order then seat yourself. We were there on a pretty nasty day weather wise, and the whole operation was being run (very efficiently I might add) by just one guy. We were a little worried but he did a great job. Good pizza has to start out with good crust- and this place has it! You can tell it's fresh and homemade. We started out with an order of garlic knots, which was pretty good. They were a LITTLE light on the garlic, but the sauce More than made up for that. Again, you can tell it's homemade and not from a can. The pizza was great! Nice chewy crust with just the right amount of crunch to it. Baked perfectly. And- the sauce. Mmm. The sauce has a BIT of a peppery "kick" to it, but I certainly wouldn't call it spicy. It's a great complement to the toppings. And- the toppings. They have a somewhat limited selection, but all the classics are there. We chose a "build your own" pizza with mushrooms, black olives, and Italian sausage, and it did not disappoint. The mushrooms were FRESH- which is a biggie to me. I hate canned mushrooms on a pizza! Overall, one of the best pizza places in the region, and trust me we've tried lots of them!
