If you are going for good pizza.....go. if for atmosphere, don't go. It's eclectic outside and inside. But the pizza is fantastic. Great toppings. Expensive though but worth it.

The sign on the door says "Not for Everyone" but this place was full on Saturday at 4pm. The people who own this place are obviously pizza geeks and are extremely dedicated to what they do. When you walk in for the first time, they show you the process of custom-ordering your pizza and then when you place your order,... More

Love, love, love me some Scratch. My late husband and the owner have been friends since they first opened and from the first pizza all those years ago to the one I had last Saturday night the one thing that has not changed is the quality. Damn good pizza! And now they offer gluten free crusts. Major bonus. They are... More

I recommend the full trust pizza, which allows the chef to create a custom pizza for you. I have been a few times and on each visit I get a different full trust pizza. The vinyl records are an added bonus.

There is a sign above the door that warns: It's not for everyone. It is very unique and if your are picky, you are in trouble. We found it a fun place to be, although if you need a seat in a hurry you might have a good wait. It's a great place for carryout and next time, we will... More

I visited scratch based on reviews and wasn't disappointed. We trusted the chef to make our pizza and it was great. It had some interesting toppings but it worked. The crust was great and the meat toppings were fresh and had a ton of flavor. They have stacks of old vinyl records. We sat and ate pizza listened to little... More

If you are adventurous with food, you must not miss this place. Highly recommended by the locals, you can either choose the ingredients you like OR TRUST the chef to make you an awesome 16" pizza. I loved mine.

Pizza is pretty good with an interesting menu of toppings. The real draw to this place is their comfortable, laid back atmosphere. They play great music and encourage customers to browse the vinyl record collection and pick something they would like to hear. The service is not great. The wait is always long and sometimes ridiculous. We recently placed an... More

This place is fantastic. The pizza is amazing. The ingredients used always seem very fresh. Some topping may seem irregular, however if you actually give them a chance you will see how amazing they are. Atmoshephere is very laid back, and their vinyl selection is pretty impressive. Resturaunt is BYOB, which has its pros and cons.

Very unconventional. Things you wouldnt think to put on pizza but it is good. Out of the box toppings. Play your own vinal records there if you want to hang out.
