We were looking for a new pizza place and Open Table led us to the Forage. The Forage is a quaint restaurant in a cottage style house that offers several different pizzas. We had both the appetizers offer because we couldn't decide! The polenta fries were the best I have had, and the roasted artichoke dip served with warms pita bread actually tasted like artichoke and not cream cheese! To be honest I only tried two of the pizzas because the third had Calabrian chilies and I am a wimp! Both my husband and son loved it! I recommend the Forge to anyone looking for a yummy pizza to enjoy at the restaurant or to take home.

This was a great experience. Limited menu but if you want charred fire oven pizza this is a good place to get it. The artichoke dip and Forage salad were both delicious. The pizza is thin crust and shareable for two. Comes in one size about 12”. Staff is engaging, service was good. Extensive wine and drink list. Atmosphere was a renovated old house done very well, cozy. Prices were surprisingly reasonable in this day of ridiculous prices you find elsewhere. That was very appreciated. We will return.

Busy, quite understaffed. Appeared to be a nice restaurant. Sat for 20 minutes without any service or acknowledgement that things might be delayed. We can understand they are busy but to be ignored was unprofessional and a turn-off.
