Satanists need to work on their vibe and customer service it seems: https://www.yelp.com/biz/atlas-pizza-portland?hrid=7DlFpC1rH5ioVaj6SO1bLA&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct)

Won't even know where to start. Had a bad vibe as soon as I walked into this place. Pizza seemed delicious, but I should have stuck with my instinct. Wanted to order a drink at the bar, and was given immediate attitude from a young woman with dark curly hair. Being in the restaurant industry for 10+ years, I was appalled that anyone would talk to a customer that way. Believe me, we all have bad days, but the way this employee spoke to my friend made my stomach hurt, I was extremely uncomfortable. I was in awe that this exchange was actually happening from an employee. I always give hospitality workers benefit of the doubt, being that I am one, and I understand the problems that others don't realize we deal with on a day to day, but I literally had to walk out of this establishment during this exchange of words because I was disgusted. I've never heard an employee speak to a customer like that. I couldn't get out of this restaurant quick enough. I didn't even want to walk by this place because I had such a negative experience there. Who knows how the pizza is, but unfortunately a rude(can't emphasize that enough), negative woman ruined my whole lunch experience. On the plus side, I got to try out some OTHER AMAZING pizza joints in the area! Portland was AMAZINGGGGGGGG!!!!! but steer clear of this place, especially this mean woman

The pizza here was nothing special and the service was the rudest I've ever had in my life. (So much so that I needed to write a review - and I never write reviews).

My friends and I walked in about 20 minutes before closing and there were several people sitting at the tables eating. The guy taking our order glared at us and was clearly pissed that we would consider grabbing a slice of pizza before midnight. He asked us if they were 'for here' or to go and we said 'for here', since pizza doesn't take long to eat. He boxed up the slices anyway and basically threw the box down on our table (right after he told the people next to us that they needed to "hurry up and eat"). Since there were tables outside, we decided to take our pizza out there and eat so that they could clean up. After a few bites, the guy stomped out and told us we "better not leave a bunch of trash out here". (Because we're definitely people who would just throw our garbage all over the sidewalk...) A couple minutes later, he came back out and told us they were closed and we needed to leave. We told him that we weren't doing anything wrong and he continued to yell at us and even threatened to call the cops. We finished our pizza and left. The entire experience was horrible and needless to say, my friends and I are never going back to this place.

Seriously Portland restaurant owners, get a clue and stop letting your employees play their phones.

So far this place kind of sucks... My boyfriend and I were super excited about being so near to our house. When we entered I have to say that the customer service was Portlandesc...

Service here is terrible. I ordered ONE slice of pizza. There was no line and they were not busy at all. I waited 10 minutes for ONE slice (the pizza was already made so all you had to do was warm it in the oven) before I go to the counter then ask the staff about my slice. Apparently forgot to put my slice in the oven to warm it. He then puts it in the oven for like 1 minute then gives me the slice with a half-assed apology and no sincere attempt to make up for his error. Papa John or even Domino's would have been better, and I'll never come back to this spot again, even though they have pinball machines.

Employees seem largely disinterested in interacting with customers.

The Owner/General Manager, Sean, must be crazy because he actually agreed to have our entire play group of toddlers into the shop when it opened today for a "pizza demo". We had four 2.5yr old boys and three 1yr olds in tow and he and his staff were so great to us. Sean put on a demo of how they make the pizzas and even let each kid have their own chunk of dough to play with. He was so wonderful with the kids and the staff couldn't have been kinder to us. All the kids had the best time! To top it all off, the pizza was very good and the pricing was even better! I got 2 slices and 2 sodas for just $11. Worth every penny!

Haha competition don't you love it!

I want to like this place, but you gotta meet me half way... Apathetic hipster douche service and forgettable pizza. Much better down the street at Cibo.

who puts garlic in the pizza sauce for a hawaiian? i've never experienced this before and i've eaten "a lot" of hawaiian style pizzas as it's my favorite. totally ruined the pizza and my experience.

Some same photos as their facebook on yelp. Oops the family are giving the reviews or they are using their customers photos as their posts on facebook. It would be interesting to see who posted first but I'm not a food critic and I don't care.

Crazy how similar this sounds to CPP! There was a post awhile back about their yelp reviews as well.....

Not wanting to doxx myself somehow, i have waited a few months to say that i visited Comet myself during a D.C. vacay.... i ate there with my traveling companion, hate to say, the pizza was actually excellent --- BUT, the service was insanely shitty.... unkempt grumpy guy behind the counter, seemed to be doing nothing much, there were several tables occupied and some kids playing ping pong, but not extremely busy by any means... there was no friendliness exhibited by the waiter/same guy, and he took forever to come back- not sure why as i could see him the whole time (it's a small place actually). the walls were bare concrete, crumbling in places. nothing fancy at all, the. the hidden bathroom is now solid pink inside. overall a bit dirty, nothing special or fancy.

he tried to encourage us to get 2 pizzas for only 2 people, wtf? they are expensive already and no slices sold. we got roasted beets appetizer which were done in the pizza oven and thrown in a bowl... no garnish, nothing... when i asked for goat cheese (on the pizza menu) to go with the beets, the man looked at me like i was insane and took forever to bring a small cup over....
beets and goat cheese is a thing btw if you don't know.... one would think a place run by one of DC's most influential would be a lil more upscale, but only the price is!!

finally, we were not checked on again, and needed refills for some time- i had to get his attention. he refilled our glasses with tea and then provided the check--- $12 for 2 iced teas with a refill each!!!! he made no mention of refills costing when we asked for them. only thing i can think is they are emptying premade bottles of tea, like honest tea, into a glass- but this was not told to us. when i gasped at the price, he did nothing, said nothing. i think he was stoned.

the upshot: more assholes who seem really disinterested in running a restaurant or being friendly, despite being promoted as kid and family friendly!! the total for a small pizza, beets and 2 teas w/refill.... $ 38.45 !!!

Everything about that place screams, "front"
