Editorial Review for Dove Vivi – by Elizabeth Lopeman
In Short
The cozy pizzeria has put a twist on traditional pizza, serving a Chicago-style crust made with cornmeal with West Coast-style toppings. The toppers include most of the usual suspects, as well as creative stand-ins such as whole kernel corn. Many of the pies aren't made with sauce but have some sweetness or acid in lieu of the tomato flavor. For dessert try the Zucotto--a chilled chocolate whippedcream cake with crushed biscotti and lady finger crust. Par-baked pies are also available to take home.

.Know Before You GoKeep your eyes peeled--the restaurant is nestled between a dry cleaner and a convenience store on the corner of Glisan and NE 28th, beyond the big white heart sign that faintly reads Dove Vivi.
What to DrinkBeer goes best with pizza, so order an Amnesia or Double Mountain beer on tap.

I've eaten here several times and am quite satisfied with my experiences. The owners/employees are very nice and helpful, they make everything in house, the pie is unique to the neighborhood (and to portland) and is delicious. I love the new addition to the sidewalk seating, but am still bothered that my "roasted peppers" still have the skin on them making my slice metallic instead of sweet and savory.
Pros: unique and tasty crust, friendly staff, sidewalk edition
Cons: the little things

I love this place. I will never go anywhere else for pizza again. The cornmeal crust is to die for, so buttery and crunchy. You can taste the fresh ingredients in every bite. I have never had such a wonderful pizza before. I have been there twice in a weeks time. I have told at least 10 people and will keep spreading the word. Do yourself a favor and go to Dove Vivi. So yummy!!! Another great Portland spot.
Pros: Best pizza ever
Cons: I want to eat it every day
