Neatly divided in half, Earth, Wind & Flour looks like a typical takeaway pizza joint on one size, but wander through the doors on the right and you’ll find yourself instead in a cosy cafe-like restaurant to enjoy your eats. The menu spans from the more traditional pizza and pastas, to ones with international influences.

Earth, Wind & Flour - Pork Ribs (Medium, $19) — Pork Ribs (Medium, $19)

Earth, Wind & Flour - Superfood Salad - Baby spinach, red quinoa, broad beans, zucchini, cauliflower, roasted almonds, pepitas, sunflower and poppy seeds, fresh mint and parsley with a seasoned olive oil dressing ($12) — Superfood Salad - Baby spinach, red quinoa, broad beans, zucchini, cauliflower, roasted almonds, pepitas, sunflower and poppy seeds, fresh mint and parsley with a seasoned olive oil dressing ($12)

The pork ribs are tender, coated in a sweet and sticky red glaze. We balance this with a superfood salad, which is tasty and textural with all the grains, seeds and nuts inside.

Earth, Wind & Flour - Muglai Lamb - Mint yoghurt marinated lamb, baby spinach, cheese, chilli, spiced cauliflower and pumpkin and goats cheese ($17) — Muglai Lamb - Mint yoghurt marinated lamb, baby spinach, cheese, chilli, spiced cauliflower and pumpkin and goats cheese ($17)

Earth, Wind & Flour - Jumping Bean - Black Bean, Cheese, Chilli, Ground Beef, Jalapenos, Roasted Capsicum, Spanish Onion, Tomato Base ($16.50) — Jumping Bean - Black Bean, Cheese, Chilli, Ground Beef, Jalapenos, Roasted Capsicum, Spanish Onion, Tomato Base ($16.50)

The pizzas have a thick and crunchy base, and are slightly greasy, but not soggy. The meat in the Muglai Lamb is marinated in a mint yoghurt, and accompanied by baby spinach, cheese, chilli, spiced cauliflower, pumpkin and goats cheese. It feels like quite a heavy pizza and we would have preferred there to be something for a bit of refreshment. The Jumping Bean is of Mexican inspiration, topped with black beans, cheese, chilli, ground beef, jalapenos, roasted capsicum and Spanish onion. There’s a definite punch of heat from the jalapenos, and we enjoy the bite of the beans and charred ground beef.

Earth, Wind & Flour - Prosciutto - Cheese, Gorgonzola, Pear, Prosciutto, Reduced Balsamic Dressing, Tomato, Wild Rocket ($17) — Prosciutto - Cheese, Gorgonzola, Pear, Prosciutto, Reduced Balsamic Dressing, Tomato, Wild Rocket ($17)

The Prosciutto pizza toppings sound like they could be a salad on their own, coming with Gorgonzola, pear, prosciutto, rocket, tomato and a balsamic dressing. I love the garlic hit in the seafood pizzas, the zestiness is added by lemon and chilli, and juiciness of the tiger prawns and scallops.

Earth, Wind & Flour has just released a new selection of pizzas for summer, and they do half-half pizzas, giving you the opportuntity to have a bit more variety.
