Restaurant in Beaverton, United States
Fusion pizza concept that earns a second visit.
Hapa Pizza in Beaverton brings Neapolitan pizza craft to Asian fusion flavors, making it one of the Portland metro area's more distinctive family-owned concepts. Booking is easy, the sharing format suits small celebrations and date nights, and there is no direct local competitor doing the same thing. Confirm hours and pricing directly before visiting.
If you have been to Hapa Pizza once and are wondering whether a return visit changes the calculus, the answer is yes — in a useful way. The first visit is about understanding the concept: Neapolitan pizza technique applied to Asian flavor profiles, made by a family-owned kitchen in Beaverton. The second visit is where you make smarter choices about timing, ordering, and what the room actually rewards. For Beaverton, this is a genuinely distinct proposition, and it earns a return on that basis alone.
Hapa Pizza sits at 12755 SW Broadway St in Beaverton, Oregon, and its premise is direct to explain but harder to execute: take the craft disciplines of Neapolitan pizzamaking and apply them to the flavor grammar of Asian cuisines. The result is a family-run restaurant that occupies its own category in the Portland metro area. There is no direct local competitor doing the same thing at the same address, which makes peer comparison harder but also makes the booking decision easier — if the concept appeals, there is no obvious substitute nearby.
Visually, the experience starts on the plate. Neapolitan-style pies carry the leopard-spotted char and airy cornicione that signal proper high-heat baking, but the toppings shift the frame entirely. That visual contrast , familiar pizza architecture, unexpected ingredient combinations , is the first signal that this kitchen is executing a deliberate idea rather than a novelty gimmick. For a special occasion or a date where you want the meal to generate conversation, that distinctiveness does real work.
This is where the practical intelligence matters. Without confirmed hours in the database, it is not possible to verify whether Hapa Pizza runs a separate lunch service. What can be said with confidence is that family-owned Neapolitan-style operations in suburban markets frequently anchor their kitchen output around dinner, where table turnover and ticket size justify the wood-fire prep investment. If a daytime visit is your priority, confirm hours directly before making the trip. For a special occasion dinner, the format almost certainly serves you better: the Neapolitan style reads as an event-worthy meal in an evening context in a way that a quick lunch slot may not.
For groups celebrating something , a birthday, an anniversary, a low-key work dinner , the pizza-sharing format naturally supports the table dynamic. Pies arrive as communal objects, which keeps the energy at the table active without requiring the formal choreography of a tasting menu. That makes Hapa Pizza a practical pick for small celebrations where you want something interesting but not intimidating.
Against the Beaverton and Portland metro field, Hapa Pizza holds a specific position: it is the venue you book when you want a distinctive meal without the formality or price commitment of a destination restaurant. Venues like Le Bernardin in New York City, Atomix in New York City, or Atelier Crenn are operating at a $$$$ price point with tasting menus and full reservation infrastructure. Hapa Pizza is not competing in that tier, and it should not be judged against it. The comparison that matters locally is whether the concept execution justifies the trip over a standard pizza option in Beaverton.
For diners interested in the Asian-Western fusion format at a more ambitious level, Benu in San Francisco represents the category ceiling , French-Chinese fine dining at a $$$$ price point with a very different commitment level. Hapa Pizza offers an accessible, family-run version of a related instinct: using Asian flavor logic in a Western culinary structure. That is not a criticism; it is a useful frame for knowing what you are booking.

Comparing your options in Beaverton for this tier.
The concept is specific: Neapolitan pizza technique applied to Asian flavor profiles, made by a family-owned operation at 12755 SW Broadway St in Beaverton. Come in expecting creative toppings that draw from Asian cuisine rather than a standard Italian menu. The format works best if you are open to that crossover rather than looking for a conventional pizza experience. It is a casual, approachable spot — no ceremony required.
Booking difficulty is rated Easy, so walk-ins are a reasonable option for most visits. For weekend evenings or a group meal, calling ahead is the safer move even if it is not strictly necessary. This is not a reservation-chase situation the way a tasting-menu restaurant would be.
The draw here is the Asian fusion Neapolitan pizzas — that is the premise the restaurant was built around, so defaulting to those rather than any conventional options is the right call. Specific menu items are not confirmed in available data, so ask staff what is rotating or seasonal when you arrive. The family-owned structure often means the menu evolves, so checking on arrival is practical advice, not a hedge.
If you want straight Neapolitan without the fusion angle, Portland's inner eastside has several wood-fired options worth the short drive. For Asian cuisine without the pizza format, Beaverton itself has a strong Korean and Vietnamese corridor along SW Canyon Road. Hapa Pizza is the only confirmed Asian-Neapolitan crossover in the area, so there is no direct local substitute for the specific concept.
It works for a low-key celebration where the point is a distinctive meal rather than a formal dining event. The family-owned, casual format means it is better suited to a birthday dinner with friends than an anniversary where atmosphere and service formality matter. If the occasion calls for a tasting menu or wine program, look elsewhere in the Portland metro area.
As a family-owned Beaverton restaurant with an Easy booking rating, it is a practical group option for parties that do not need private dining or a dedicated events team. For larger groups, calling ahead to confirm capacity and table configuration is advisable. The casual format means groups should feel comfortable, but confirmed group-booking policies are not available in the current venue data.
This is a casual, family-owned pizza spot in a Beaverton strip — everyday clothes are appropriate. There is no dress expectation beyond what you would wear to any neighborhood restaurant. Showing up in jeans is entirely in keeping with the setting.
Keep this venue in your Pearl passport, rate it after you visit, and track it alongside every other place you collect.
