Apizza Scholls, Italian pizzeria in Southeast Portland, United States.
Apizza Scholls is a pizzeria in Southeast Portland that bakes pizzas in a wood-fired oven using handmade dough and carefully selected ingredients. Each pie is topped with a maximum of three ingredients to ensure proper balance and cooking.
The restaurant was opened to bring traditional Italian pizza methods to Portland, drawing inspiration from established pizzerias on the East Coast. It has since become a fixture in the local dining scene.
The name comes from a legendary pizzeria in New Haven that inspired the founders. It has become a gathering place where visitors experience how seriously Portland takes traditional Italian pizza-making.
The restaurant opens daily in the evening and offers earlier hours on weekends. Arriving early is wise, as the small space fills up quickly during peak times.
The menu intentionally keeps the pizza selection small and focused, allowing the kitchen to maintain high quality and consistency. This approach of doing less but better sets it apart from typical pizzerias.
