Von Ebert Pizzeria & Taproom — Restaurant in Beaverton

In the bustling heart of the city, there exists a peculiar pizza parlour, a place so audacious in its pricing that one might suspect its proprietor to be a direct descendant of the infamous highwaymen of yore. Yet, despite the exorbitant sums demanded for a mere slice of their culinary concoction, this establishment remains a beacon of solace for the weary and the parched, much like an oasis in the vast desert of the mundane.

As the clock strikes the bewitching hour, signaling the commencement of their much-vaunted Happy Hour, a transformation most miraculous occurs. The once lofty prices tumble down like the walls of Jericho, allowing the common man to partake in the feast without the fear of bankruptcy or the need to pawn one's waistcoat. It is during these sacred hours that the parlour truly comes to life, bustling with an eclectic mix of bohemians, scribes, and the occasional wayward aristocrat, all drawn together by the siren call of discounted delicacies and the legendary giant beer mugs.

Ah, those mugs! Such colossal vessels they are, capable of containing an ale storm that could quench the thirst of a small army or, at the very least, a band of parched poets. To hoist one is to engage in a test of endurance and dexterity, a challenge that has felled many a lesser man. Yet, there is no sight more glorious than the triumphant gleam in the eye of the victor, his grip firm around the handle, his spirit soaring with the eagles.

The pizzas themselves are masterpieces of culinary excess, laden with toppings so diverse and plentiful that one might suspect a small universe exists within the confines of the crust. Each bite is an expedition into the unknown, a journey of flavor that defies reason and logic. It is said that to fully appreciate the complexity of these creations, one must possess a palate as refined as a Dickensian dandy and a constitution as robust as a dockworker.

In this temple of gastronomy and ale, the absurdity of existence is laid bare, and one cannot help but surrender to the madness. Here, amidst the clinking of giant mugs and the laughter of kindred spirits, the world outside ceases to matter. The prices, though a daylight robbery of the highest order, become but a trivial concern, easily forgiven in the face of such revelry and camaraderie.

So, let us raise our giant mugs to this enigmatic pizza parlour, a place that defies the constraints of time and economy, a haven for those in search of joy and a damn good slice. Long may it continue to bewilder, enchant, and slightly impoverish...

Amazing pizza but unfortunately, very rude employees. Let me start by saying that the pizza is absolutely delicious - they carry vegan cheese with custom toppings. I have placed orders online for pick up about a dozen times and never had a good experience with the employees. I always tried to give them the benefit of doubt that I might have done something they didn't like (tipping less, adding vegan cheese or asking them to wash the knife before cutting my vegan pizza) and kept ordering correcting these things but they were always bluntly rude. Yesterday was the last time I visited - I placed an online order at 6:30, scheduled it for pick up at 8:45, got there at 9:02. The website said they close at 10 on weekdays. The doors were locked, an unfriendly employee walked up the door and told me I had placed an order two and half hours ago. I showed her the email which clearly mentioned 8:45 pickup time, she rudely, unapologetically, said their system showed 6:30, and the oven takes 40 minutes to heat up, they cannot make the pizza. All due to 1. The website listing wrong time. 2. I got there 2 minutes late - I was at the store next door and if I had known, I could have easily come before 9. I would still be fine with it if they were nice or even not rude about it. Refund got sorted out through phone the next day, he was nice, apologized, and offered a free pizza. Unfortunately due to the experience with the employees, I'm not going back. Amazing pizza, they definitely need to work on the...

Second visit was much different than the first. First was great!

Came for lunch to share a pizza with my wife. Wanted to share a pizza and looking for half and half. Asked if we could do this and we’re told no the system doesn’t allow it. “It’s not I’m being lazy our system just doesn’t do it..”. After some back and forth we were given limited options to do a half and half. We totally understood the sauce needed to be the same across the pie but why couldn’t we get different toppings. We were told we had to pick two pizzas off the menu. So I got a pepperonis and my wife got cheese. Guy at the counter caught on and offered to add toppings to my wife’s cheese side. At this point being told no, no, no to everything we were surprised as we were told differently to begin with. Overall was just not accommodating despite being one other customer in the store drinking a beer the 1+ hour we were there.

We also sat a table which was dirty and when it was wiped was done very poorly. There was still built up food on the table after the wipe.

Won’t be rushing back and probably won’t be back. Sad as the pizza is decent albeit a little over priced. Beer is great but I’ll swing by the pearl location for better food and service when I’m...
