Bicycle Thief

Huge fans of the family that opened this sweet spot! We had been meaning to try and finally did, but were a little nervous being loyal Frank's fans... but WOW!! Turns out their business is as amazing as the humans they are!! Such great quality food, some of the best crust I've ever tried, impeccable sauce, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, just ALL THE THINGS! The time and energy poured into this lovely spot hit the mark and then some! Thrilled to have a new favorite in the 'hood!! Great work, R fam!!! Xo

Yeah it is the best artisan, almost neopolitan style pizza in the county. Sorry, 3fork, your oven is very nice, but the attention to detail isn't quite there.Table service is good, even when they are extremely busy. Speaking of which: make reservations (online, no phone) if you plan to go on a weekend evening, etc, especially. This is not a place to buy a slice and run. This is a place to have a drink or two, and enjoy a meal. What's the downside? Well, they don't have a full bar. Not sure if that is part of the plan or not, but at least they have a good selection of beer and wine and similar.So what's the downside? It's really really loud. Especially in the back room when full. They have got four acoustic panels on the ceiling. They need fourteen such panels to begin to tame it.... And someone should run the Sonos app to EQ their speakers especially if they continue to have them play loudly. Don't bring children here (it's loud enough to be dangerous to their ears) and think twice before being your parents if they use hearing aids.

My friend and I came here on Friday night, maybe 30 minutes before closing, after we arrived late into town with very few places still open, and we were starving. We were accommodated and served without any feeling of being an inconvenience or hurried, which was amazing after our exhausting, stormy road trip!(SIDE NOTE FOR THE RESTAURANT OWNER): We tried to call ahead to ask a few questions and discovered there's no phone number. If I could knock off 1/4 star for that, I would, because we both have (annoying to us) food restrictions and prefer to call ahead to ask if they can accommodate them. It's better for everyone so we don't waste our time, and we also respect the staff's time! We feel for the servers who have to sit through our detailed questions and complex instructions about what we can and can't eat, and in which forms, etc. We know many people are just picky or following trendy diets, and waitstaff often get a lot of grief from unreasonable, rude, entitled people. We just want to be efficient and respectful, so everyone can relax, and we can show our appreciation when a restaurant is able to accommodate our needs!As far as the food goes, it was divine, and I would give it more than 5 stars! The server was very patient in answering our questions and coming up with alternatives or fixes. I have issues with cow dairy, and my friend has issues with garlic and onions. They created a half/half pizza for us to share, with each side made for our dietary needs, that has to be HANDS DOWN one of the most delicious, simple pizzas I have ever had! The thin crust was perfect, and I'm pretty sure I could have eaten the sauce straight with a spoon. We also ordered the beet salad, and the flavor of the beets was so savory and rich that we were probably making inappropriate noises. To top it off, the music in the background was perfection, and the relaxed atmosphere couldn't have been better.

We came here on a Saturday night for dinner and it was amazing! The place was busy and lively with ample seating so we were seated shortly in a cute booth. The service was a bit slow and it took some time for a waitress to come and take our order, but the servers were very friendly nonetheless!We ordered:- Cheese Bread - This was delicious and the flavors was so good, with the cheese super stretchy and warm. The marinara sauce on the side was a good combination with the bread.- Ruby Pizza with Mushrooms Add-on (which is a White Pie) - The pizza was pretty good! I really liked the flavors and adding the mushroom on top really enhanced the taste.The portion sizes at this place are super generous and for two, we definitely had leftovers to take back.Overall, we had a great time and we will definitely be coming back here for dinner if we're back in Grass Valley!

Our third visit to Bicycle Thief before a show at the Center. The service (Kent) was exceptional. His recommendations were spot on. Loved the special of the night (Brussel sprout pizza . . . who woulda guessed!) and the pistachio ice cream. We made a reservation and were seated immediately. All around a great experience.

Try the Bee Thousand. The perfectly light and crisp crust supported an array of delectable toppings. The honey added a nice, sweet note to a tangy sauce. I'm not ashamed to admit I ate 75% of the pie myself on the first sitting.When I walked in, I was promptly seated at the bar and made order came out quickly. The decor seems new and I enjoyed the vibe of the place. It seemed plenty of regulars would pop in and have a drink while waiting for their order to be ready. I really appreciated that they had a fun selection of nonalcoholic soda (like Fentimans) for those of us who don't drink or in the middle of longer drives.Wonderful place.

10/10. Came in for dinner with a friend who recommended this restaurant. The two of us who had never been here before did not leave disappointed. We started with their special, which was a caprese that had the freshest peaches, burrata and heirloom tomatoes. We then had broccolini and meatballs before we ordered our pizza. Every dish had a little extra flavor to it. There was chili oil or spices that really elevated every dish. We cleaned the entire plate for a dish before we would let them take them away. The sauces were just too good to not eat all of it. I did forget to snap a pic of the pizza but we ate until we were stuffed. Somehow we did have room for the ice cream. We had the Oreo and also tried the banana Nutella flavor. Both very different, both fantastic. I loved the vibe of the restaurant with the decor and the staff was friendly and attentive. I'd come back anytime!

I have been waiting for this place to open! They are located on East Main Street (next to Enriques Lounge) in downdown Grass Valley.Although they don't open until 4pm it was worth the wait! We had the Joe pizza and loved the parm on it! Love the wine and beer selection!I like that the menu has both the white and red sauce separate, so its easier to choose from. It has a classy and warm atmosphere!Please note that there is no big signage yet..so don't miss passing this by! Great addition to downtown Grass Valley..its upscale!

I think this place is deserving of some serious attention and notoriety--best pizza, ice cream, and appetizers in town. Don't skip the baked cauliflower and pistachio ice cream!

Loved loved everything about it! Thank you for bringing to our community my favorite best place to eat! Your menu is perfect and food is so yummy delicious. The service staff were so helpful, cordial and taking the time to check on us throughout our meal! And looking around it's a very happy place ... ambiance we found was great.
