Pizzeria Seven Twelve

Hello P712


You are a shining beacon of light in an otherwise drab and dumpy, not to mention unfinished, eyesore that is the Midtown Village (another blog post for another time).

I love the simplistic dining that you, and your parent's other love child Communal (see post below), have created in the Valley.  You both use such flavorful, natural and unique ingredients that it makes your dishes look more like a picture, than the actual picture. 


P712 is a rustic, yet classy, establishment with an open kitchen, delicious decor (the artwork and light bulbs are stab in my heart, I want them that much) and delightful food.  Forget anything you know about pizza in Utah Valley (Pier 49 what?). Once you taste this melt in your mouth triangular piece of handmade, brick oven baked pizza, you might actually die out of shear pleasure.  No wonder they were just honored as Utah's best pizza in Sunset Magazine! Click for the article.

The water is brought in glass bottles, clear and free of embellishments. Their wine selection looked sufficient, of what I saw of it. The pizza was topped with speck. Don't know what that is? Neither did we. It was delicious. Apparently it is a much more flavorful and fresh version of a type of pepperoni.



The bill comes on a wooden plank. The menu, a piece of parchment.


Pizzeria Seven Twelve is unlike any pizza place I have ever laid eyes on, I wish every day was pizza day.

Post Script:
If you dine here, go to the restroom.  The walls are bronze and beautiful, the sink and fixtures are like none other, and the cloth napkins instead of paper add a surprising touch.
