If you want pizza and beer together in Isu, I'd like to introduce Raymond Isu Branch.
Especially at lunchtime, you can enjoy pizza at a slightly discounted price along with Champion craft beer, which made it a great fit for anyone looking for a lunch pijmaek spot at an Isu pizza place.
A whole pizza can feel like a bit much, and it's often awkward going in alone, but here you can order by the slice, so solo dining works too haha.
One slice was really huge, so women could probably feel quite full with just one slice.
How to order pizza by the slice at Raymond Isu Branch
What we ordered that day at Raymond Isu Branch was 4 pizza slices and bacon cream pasta. Since you pick slices individually, it was great for tasting a little of several flavors.
What we ordered that day was 4 pizza slices and bacon cream pasta.
That said, some pizza flavors can sell out, so there's a slight downside of not being able to get the flavor you want, but they seemed to always have at least 4-5 kinds ready.
If you visit with a group, it's nice to pick different flavors instead of just one and share them around. The set menus are well put together too!
The set menus have a similar composition, but we wanted pasta, so we ordered a side separately along with our 4 slices.
Each slice was pretty wide and thick, so it was surprising just by looking at it!
Honestly, I felt seriously full after just two slices, and my boyfriend said he was pretty full too, so the portions are quite generous!
True to its American-style pizza concept, Raymond Isu Branch showed off American-style ingredients and visuals. Even the display case looked delicious.

The spicy fusilli slice was the best of the four
The spicy fusilli, a menu item you can only get at Raymond, was personally my favorite.
There was something like pasta noodles on top, which gave it a nice chewy texture, and the sweet, tangy, spicy flavors all came together well — I found myself wishing I'd ordered two slices of this one, haha.
The curly fusilli shape held the sauce really well inside its curves. They cut everything into bite-sized pieces for us, too, ha ha ha ha — thanks, babe...!
Bacon cream pasta side: low ₩10,000s
Raymond Isu Branch's bacon cream pasta is a side dish in the low ₩10,000s, and it was much better than I expected. It came out in a hot ceramic bowl like a gratin, with a generous portion.
And what turned out to be even better than expected was this side dish, the bacon cream pasta.
The cream sauce was very smooth and savory. It came in a hot ceramic bowl like a gratin, the portion was generous, and the noodles were cooked well. At a price in the low ₩10,000s, I wondered if it might taste a bit cheap, but it really wasn't!! Ordering pizza and pasta together to share turned out to be a pretty great combo here. Savory and nutty, with a quite rich cream sauce!! haha.
