10Best Says

800 degrees. That's the secret to the great pizzas at the unique and fun Matchbox Chinatown. The chefs use a wood-fired masonry oven that produces high heats that modern gas and electric ovens can't muster. The blistering heat produces a crispy, smoky pizza and crust that is the signature of a Matchbox Chinatown creation. The dough and many of the toppings are all prepared fresh daily. Besides the pizza, Matchbox Chinatown also offers bistro dishes, including steaks, scallops and grilled salmon. Give the Fire & Smoke a try – it features roasted red peppers, onions, a chipotle tomato sauce and smoked gouda cheese.
