I've tried this pizza place twice and found it very lacking. First time, there was very little topping on the pizza. Second time, it was way undercooked. Nothing worse than doughy pizza crust.

I think I will move your reviews up in the actual post for now until I post a proper review. Dean, I think I tried it there one time, but it was long time ago and I forget how it was... but I remember it was good. I gotta try it there again! jodi, yeah, the crust does look yummy! that's the most important part. :D kelly, interesting ideas, which i think would work! please suggest those to them. Tricia, it feels great to know that you found Big Island Pizza through my blog and that you really enjoyed it! Thank you for your review... I really appreciate it. Howard, thank you so much for your review! I have to try some of the pizzas you've mentioned. Thank you everybody for your comments, especially for those with reviews (Tricia & Howard).

The first time we got the chicken and pesto pizza, with pieces of roast chicken, roma tomatoes, and mushrooms on pesto sauce. The pesto was excellent, the chicken pieces ample, and the mushrooms better than those on most mushroom pizzas I've had elsewhere. It's like having a meal at a fine Italian restaurant, served on an edible plate made of first-rate pizza dough. Today we tried the Northwest Special, described above, which was even better than the chicken and pesto. It struck me as a deluxe Hawaiian version of lox and bagel. While most of the business is takeout, there are three tables outdoors next to the shop for people who wish to eat right there. While we were eating there today, the owner came out and talked to us. He told us about some of the exotic pizza ideas he is thinking of adding to the menu, and some of them sounded terrific. When I said that the crust reminded me of the best pizzas I've had from brewpubs, he told us that he treats the dough in a similar manner before baking it. These are definitely the best pizzas we've had in Hawaii, and among the best anywhere. We will certainly be going back again. We’ve been there twice.

We visted their website and was hooked from then on. We immediately ordered a pizza from this new business. We ordered the Northwest and it was soooo ONO!!! It's a little on the pricy side, but hey, it's something different than the usual Pizza Hut that we usually eat. This is what was on our Northwes (saved the take out menu)- olive paste base, smoke salmon, shrimp, capers, smoked gouda cheese, mushrooms sweet red onions, rosemary and toasted pinenuts. My husband and I ordered the medium pizza- which was $16.99. We called and the employees said a medium pizza features eight slices and it was perfect for two people. When we returned home, we divided the pizza evenly, just to be fair - it was so delicious!!!! I agree with Dean, Pizza Hawaii is really good too. =) BTW, great website!!
