barry takes in a few tastes at the rosebowl.


and likes them.

desperately needed pizza after 11 pm one friday past, so a few buds and i headed to the rosebowl on jasper and 117 street. a lot has changed in recent years at the bowl, particularly with their décor, but the pizza still delights the senses. try their spicy mexican pizza or their refreshing can’t-quite-remember-the-name-pizza with a garlic butter base, melted cheese, and chopped fresh tomatoes and cucumbers on top.

i had the chance to speak with the manager, and even better news: they’re extending their menu this fall to include more pizzas, more entrees, and more drinks!


good food, extended menu…my only complaint was that the music was crazy loud, making it near impossible to converse with my buds. maybe earplugs would be a good starter for the evening.

  1. I've never been, but always wanted to go to the Rose Bowl. I guess my changes have decreased having abandon downtown living for the 'burbs. Oh good pizza! How I miss you every time I order in!

    me too! though there is some good pizza in the burbs -- at least on the southside...the butter chicken pizza with fresh ginger at Millcreek Pizza is awesome!

  4. yo! Barry, I think that pizza is called a Juanita. Our typical Rose Bowl party consists of two extra large pizzas--- one Juanita with extra tomato, and a Rose bowl special. With four people sharing, theres usually enough for all of us to take some leftovers home to enjoy re-heatedly:)
