Coal Fire Gaithersburg

Nice looking neighborhood Italian restaurant. We're seated right away on a Sunday afternoon and waited on soon after. Party of 11 and shared 3 different pizzas, two hamburger orders and a spaghetti and meatballs order. Hamburgers were ok or pretty good. Spaghetti was good and everyone really liked the pizzas. Took a little while to get our meals but not an unreasonable wait

It is an excellent place to spend a special occasion, such as celebrating your birthday, the staff is very attentive and the food is delicious, the pizza was perfect and the pizza sauce was unbeatable, I recommend this place 100

I was here recently on two occasions. First time I had the $12 eggplant parm sandwich. The eggplant was soggy and, mixed with the marinara, made it difficult to eat as a sandwich, no matter how I held it. The fries were good and plentiful.The second time I ordered the $14 Double Creekstone Burger. The patties were pretty small for the price (I realize this is the Kentlands, and rent isn't cheap . Five years ago, if you had told me I would be ordering a $14 burger, I'd have expected it to be the biggest burger I've ever eaten. The bun was fresh, but bland. My biggest gripe was that the menu indicates it was to be topped with caramelized onions, so I was somewhat excited, however, they were only slightly grilled. I'm NOT a cook, but know that this is a *very* slow process, taking 45 60+ minutes (pre dinner prep and reheat? . In addition, our server (the bartender did not know what was in Oma's Cucumber Salad one of only three sides (the other two are fries and rings and require no memorization of ingredients . I ordered it regardless. It came in a small ramekin. Ingredients were cucumbers onions, in a watery dill sauce. Upon bussing our table, she asked ME what was in it LOL. Parking: Zero issues parking.

Best pizza we've had in the Gaithersburg area. I'm vegan. My wife isn't. They have great options for both including vegan cheese and pepperoni. I asked a question via email and promptly got a reply. That's valuable to me.If I have one issue it's that I'd like to see a piece of tape or something proving a delivered pizza doesn't fall into the hands of the driver. Otherwise, great food and totally my local go-to pizza joint. Vegetarian options: Vegan cheese and pepperoni all the veggies. Classic sauce is vegan. Signature and spicy have honey, according to the establishment.

First time at this place for a quick bite and ended up being surprised. The service was excellent fast and the server checked in often to see how we were doing. The meatball appetizer was so delicious. Will repeat!
