Excellent, excellent, excellent!
Crispy tofu bowl and 2 pizzas tested. Everything was perfect.
I don't remember tasting such good pizza in a restaurant.
The dough was light and the sidewalks cooked to perfection. Impossible to leave them. The seasoning and spices were perfectly mastered, the portions perfect. The Indian pizza, in addition to being original, was topped very generously with Paneer. Another was tested with a white base with lemon sauce, an assortment to keep in mind to try the experiment at home.
Without forgetting the service which matched the food, super cheerful without being robotic commercial, a real joy of living. The name of this restaurant is very well chosen, everything is homemade and on demand. I'm really not a fan of restaurants, 90% of the time I leave disappointed by the experience. This one makes up for all my failures.

First time here and everything we tried was great! We kicked it off with the West Coast Sour with cedar infused bourbon which tasted like a local forest… in a good way! 🌲Then we started with the Street Corn which is fresh, sweet corn smothered in a spicy sauce, feta and sliced jalapeños. Worth getting your teeth dirty. :)
And then we topped it off with the Perfect Storm pizza - it’s got great crust, flavorful cheese and a sweet and spicy mix with pineapple and jalapeños. Trying a new spot is always a gamble but with Scratch, it’s a win!

I am a sucker for a thin crust, fire oven pizza - and this place delivered! We tried the Margherita and Brussels Sprout, and they were both fantastic! If I had to pick one, it’d be the Margherita. Flavourful sauce and perfectly chewy crust. We shared two pizzas between four of us, and it was the perfect amount.
The crafted drinks were also tasty!
Definitely a place you could go for a date night if you wanted a romantic setting but didn’t want to break the bank.

Based on the poor quality of the “artisan” pizza we received, it's hard to understand how this restaurant gets such a high rating. We ordered a takeout brussel sprout pizza and asked if it could be made gluten and garlic free. “No problem”, was the reply. “We'll just put red sauce on it instead of onion jam and use a gluten-free crust.”
When we opened the box, our “artisan” pizza looked awful. The edge of the crust was burned and the brussel sprouts were black. The taste matched the appearance: dry, with a charcoal taste masking everything else. Moreover, the toasted walnuts that were supposed to be part of this pizza were missing.
This 12” “artisan” pizza certainly wasn't worth $19. And to add insult to injury, they added another $3 just to make it gluten and garlic free. I'm sure we can find better pizza, at more reasonable prices, in many other restaurants in North Vancouver.

Hi Ron.
We don't recommend making modifications to our menu items. Every sauce and ingredient serves a purpose. That being said, we understand that people have diet restrictions and allergies and we try to accommodate the best we can.
We do not advertise anywhere on our menu that we have GF options, however if people request it due to an allergy, we like to have an option for them. (We do not have a gluten free facility/area to make this crust so it has to be outsourced - not made in house from scratch, therefore not advertised). We have a $3 charge for this GF substitution (as I'm sure all restaurants do, GF flour and ingredients are much more expensive), there isn't a charge for changing the sauce.
I am sorry to hear you had such a poor experience. Once this pandemic passes, we would be happy to have you come down to our establishment and try a different menu item that is garlic & GF. Please contact me to coordinate this 604-770-1237.
Stay safe.

So cool to see this place doing so well. I have reviewed this place before but I’m compelled to review again after an awesome Saturday night family dinner. Just so good to see local, independent ownership providing tasty, inventive and addictive food and drink. Well done scratch! The table shared the chicken thigh and it was my favourite. We also shared the beet salad and a pizza. Good house wine wine. We’ll be back

This is literally the best place on the North Shore, luckily it’s close to our house, lol. Best homemade pizza in town and also healthy salmon bowls and appies. We keep saying we should go to other restaurants every week, but then say ‘nah, let’s go to Scratch...’
Oh they have great beer BUT ask for their special G&T 👍🏻

This is the BEST pizza place I’ve ever been to. We discovered this place by accident and we were beyond impressed with everything from the service to the food. Their takeout is fast and fresh. Mushroom pizza is bomb. Hit it. You can’t go wrong.

Sunshine rice bowl was delicious, flavourful and simply amazing. I am a foodie but this was a total new experience to my palette. I took a vegan option. Was in the area and simply googled restaurants. So happy I chose it! Thank you chef!

Very disappointing, had not ordered their pizza in a while
Used to be amazing, we ordered the Hot Mama and the Mushroom, both were a soggy salty mess

The prosciutto pizza was absolutely perfect with the hint of lemon from the dressed arugula on top! And the west coast sour is my new favorite drink. Absolutely amazing!

Cute place, feels like it has the owners' personal touch. Menu had lots of drink and food options, including local beers on tap. 'The bowl' with squash was a very healthy post-holiday remedy, and the mushroom/rosemary pizza was superb. Looking forward to the next visit!!

Very happy with the kitchen and front end staff here. I need a gluten/dairy free diet and the staff went out of their way to make sure our food was delicious and allergy friendly. Several great pizza dishes and several others that would work for me.
