Popped into Craft Creamery for a post-movie tipple. Had several drinks and shots but wanted to highlight the following two cocktails: Uggs and Chuggs ($15*): A creation of Tyler's, this was like Santa Claus relaxing in a remote cabin while wrapped up snugly in front of a fire. Aromatic, foamy, nutty. Cocktail is due to rotate out shortly. [Name TBD] a wild variation of a Japanese Slipper ($?*): Crafted by Dan, this was a bright spiced clear but strong sipper. Planned for the upcoming menu change. *Disclaimer- Both these cocktails ended up comped but I attest that has no effect on my review. Value: Menu prices fair for quality drinks. Service: Brilliant and convivial.

Pizza Rock - Downtown

Downtown

About the restaurant

Taking pizza to the next level, Pizza Rock was born from the creative minds of three best friends: George Karpaty, Tony Gemignani, and Trevor Hewitt. Combining George and Trevor's nightlife expertise (Ruby Skye, San Francisco) with Tony's pizza making expertise (11-time World Pizza Champion, Tony's Pizza Napoletana, San Francisco), Pizza Rock is pizza artisan meets nightlife energy. This is not your traditional pizzeria.
We are excited to bring this unique concept to Downtown Las Vegas. Pizza Rock features gourmet pizzas in a variety of styles, hand-crafted artisan cocktails, an extensive wine list, and over 30 craft beers on tap and in bottles; all served up in an artistic and energetic atmosphere.

The restaurant was modern, classy, and comfortable, and the food came out very quickly. I was in a group of five and we all decided to order an appetizer and entree and then shared with each other. Everyone was raving about how good the food was, we were all very happy. Our server was top notch- unfortunately I can’t remember her name, but she was amazing and made our experience even better! Wonderful place to get a nice dinner, thanks so much!
