There are two types of Washingtonians: those who love pizza and those who are passionate about pizza. Washington is full of fantastic locally owned pizzerias, one of which happens to be in America’s best wine region, Walla Walla. If you have yet to sample the slices at Sweet Basil, it’s time to treat yourself.

Sweet Basil Pizzeria is located in the heart of downtown Walla Walla.

It all started 12 years ago, when owners Stephenie and John Bowen decided to bring their passion for New York style pizza to the Northwest.
Typically, you can enjoy your pizza in the dining room or on the small patio... but due to current events, Sweet Basil has expanded their outdoor space, just like the other downtown eateries.

Walla Walla still has some sunny autumn days ahead, so you can dine under the stars for a while before winter weather arrives.
Here, the dough is hand-tossed, and it's made fresh daily.
