Parties 20+ will be subject to a table minimum of $25/person per hour.The foundation for the pizza at Stoked Pizza Company comes from meticulously studying the ingredients and techniques used to produce our favorite classic pizza styles and highlighting the strengths of each in what we make. We prefer a crust that is soft and light on the inside with a crisp outer shell that can stand up on its own. We want our ingredients and topping combinations to provide an explosion of flavor. To achieve this we use extremely hot ovens along with carefully researched dough formulations, tomato varieties, and cheese blends, sparing no expense and taking no shortcuts.

    We had a wonderful time and so enjoyed our shared plates! The Focaccia, pickled corn pancakes, patatas bravas & grilled NY Strip were our choices. They all were amazing and true perfection! We shared the key lime mousse & smoked chocolate bread pudding for dessert which were equally outstanding! Can’t wait to return to our new favorite spot! Thanks for a perfect night!

    The Harvest never disappoints even on a busy Friday night that just happens to be Valentine’s Day. The food is delicious and, just as importantly, as you ordered it. My medium-well done filet mignon was exactly the temperature I requested. Too often, it comes out rare, but not here. The pacing of courses was good: neither too fast nor too slow. The Harvest manages to reinvent itself decade after decade without losing the fine quality and service it is famous for. Just go; you’ll be glad you did.
