I went over last night, their website said they close at 11pm on Saturday’s so we arrived a little after 7:30pm ( by the way we called earlier to confirm) when we arrived our host was a teenager boy younger than 18 who had zero customer service skills and helped us like if he was giving us a favor… he told my husband we couldn’t dine in Because they were closing but they had two there families who had just ordered before us and were still waiting on their food to be served. So I ask why we couldn’t dine in and he said they were closing earlier since it was dead . Then I sat to wait for our pizza and two more people arrived for pick ups … apparently they were still open not just for their customers waiting but also for online pick up so it made me really upset and I ask to speak with the manager but instead I received another teen girl who look about 18 the oldest at claiming she was the manager … I was there before for online pick ups and judging their laughter after we spoke in the back I know she wasn’t. She told me the place was closing at 10 for the kitchen and that we could stay if desired but without servers but after feeling rejected I certainly did not wanted to stay . I wish our pizza was better than my review but it was over cook the sides were over burned and it was cold … their pasta was ok but not much better than a fast food one. For almost 50 dollars for a large pizza and a side of small pasta this was a horrible experience .

Prices are significantly higher than displayed on google. What I thought was going to be a $70 order, actually was $120. When we brought this to the order takers attention, we were met with zero concern or care. Thought if the food is good, I’ll pay the price, so I reluctantly placed me order. Got home and was missing 1 IB of wings, and the other 1 IB I did actually get, were extremely over cooked and dry- disappointing as I specifically requested extra sauce. Called and spoke with a manager, and again was met with very little apathy. Resolutions offered were a refund for the wings, or come back to get them, but a lengthy wait time because “there were other tickets ahead”. As an already upset customer, I feel urgency to make it right would have been more appropriate. In the end, I requested a refund for the wings, but it was deducted from my account, rather than credited. Called back and spoke to the manager again, and was met with even more frustration, as if I was making things difficult. As a small business owner myself, I do not take 1 star reviews lightly. But the lack of customer service is unacceptable and if the situation was handled properly, this kind of review would not have been necessary. The only positive feedback I have, is the pizza is phenomenal. Otherwise, wings were like leather and customer service extremely poor.

I would give a negative 100 stars if it was possible. This was an extremely disappointing experience. My wife and I took our 8 year old and 2 year old adopted children to eat tonight. We walk in and immediately notice not one, not two but 3 signs saying no children in the bar area must be 21. That’s ok but realize this is more than half the restaurant and you can’t get happy hour on the very small side of the restaurant. We still thought ok we will pay much more for appetizers and as we stood for awhile asked do we sit anywhere. Young kid says would you like menus(mind you family of 4) like menus. Really I guess that would help. We then got a high chair for the two year old and sat not for a short bit but awhile as several waitresses and a waiter came to the front desk ignoring us. I then got up and asked do you have a kids menu and was told no. Went back to my table and sat still no one and we then left. I hope this restaurant shuts down as it gives a terrible name to North Phoenix. We went to Times Square and had a great meal and fantastic service. Please anyone thinking of coming here just don’t what a dreadful restaurant.

Upper Crust had me constantly licking my Upper lip because it was that good. I ordered while at the gym (don't judge me) and was able to pick up and pay when I got there. I was definitely feeling the vibe there! It was dimly lit with nice music playing in the background. I didn't have to wait long before I was on my way with my Thai and Meat Trio pizzas. Parmesan and pepper flake packets were included which I loved. I usually take a peak at my pizzas but I waited for the great pizza reveal when I got home. See my photo - larges were more than enough for my wife and I. We literally ate like 6 or 7 slices a piece (don't judge us). The crust was delicious and a bit unique compared to other thin crust pizzas I have had. The Thai pizza is sweeter almost like a teriyaki sauce FYI. The best part, I didn't feel absolutely terrible after eating all of it. Maybe it's because it was that good, or maybe it was the crust? Who knows - I do know I will be coming back here.

This was our 4th or 5th visit... We won't return. Last time we ordered a Togo pizza, was very bland and not cooked thoroughly. We decided to try again as we like to patronize local places over chains. We had a mix of happy hour specials and we ordered noodles with sauce. Wow, the meat sauce to me had a flavor I did not care for...it tasted off/bitter sour or metallic. Just not a typical Italian flavor...the noodles were smushy (assume from sitting for hours in water) The entree prices reflect a high end restaurant, the food does not sadly. Awesome waitress who was busting her butt serving multiple tables, also a younger male server who provided menus and communicated our server would be with us soon. Great plus the staff should be celebrated!! They are offering the level of service the price demands. The food however does not. We are local, could walk here...but this was the last chance on spending $70+ for dinner for two at the local spot.

When you walk in you are greeted by a whiteboard with instructions on how to order and where to sit. It turned out to be a counter service restaurant, with only about a dozen dinning tables. We sat on the non-bar side. There is more space dedicated to their bar area. We order some wings and a pizza. The wings were done very well. Nice and crisp, but not overdone. The wing pieces were on the smaller side. Fairly good wings. Their pizza is thin-crust style, which isn't my preference, but I had to give it a try. It was unique in that it appeared that the cheese was on top of the crust and the sauce on top. Their sauce is very good as was the quality of the Italian sausage they use. Our pizza, unfortunately, was a bit undercooked; very light undercarriage and floppy. Very good flavor, but we wanted more crisp to the crust. The counter service was fine, but I can see how it can get crazy when busy. It was a good visit.

Service is not what this restaurant serves. You walk by, see a special sign out and walk in hoping that this restaurant is a hidden gem. WRONG. The waiter seemed frazzled and told us to go to the bar area for help which clearly stated no children. We go into the bar and they look at us as if we did something wrong. We finally place our order then get told by what I can only imagine the owner to be as they were working in workout clothes and looked as if they just got in from the gym, to leave the bar as I had my daughter with me. As we wait in the dining area it takes them 20 to bring out the pizza. They didn't show us the pizza to make sure it was correct, it was more like a "here's your pizza, now leave" situation. This place is terrible when it comes to service. When I got home I noticed that this a thin pizza place. Great. But the pizza... Not bad. Just not what I was expecting. So you choose is service important to you? Approx wait time 30 min

First time in yesterday and prob the last. The good was the decor and ambiance was very nice. The pricing on the pies makes no sense. We ordered a half buffalo chicken and half pepperoni. The kid at the register charged me the price of a whole specialty when it was only half then charged me more to do one side just normal pepperoni. I ended up paying more money for less toppings, and when I asked him about it he said that was correct. A small salad is also like $14 which is wild. When the pizza came out it did look good but as soon as we went to pick up a slice it was just a floppy, soggy mess. There was literally no way to pick up the pizza without everything just falling off. There was no crisp, the bottom was super pale and just crunchy cornmeal. For the pricing it would have been cheaper to go to Grimaldi's.

Well I certainly hope the in person experiences I am reading in other reviews speak better for this place. One thing I can tell you is I hope they would not have the nerve to deliver to a table what they allowed to be delivered to my home. Order: Hawaiian Pizza (no judgement pineapple does belong on a pizza) Focaccia Bread Wings Salad What was received: "Pizza" lacking any pineapple any ham half bare of cheese other half bare of marinara and the thickness of a credit card. (Didn't know that level of thin was possible but that may explain why it was burnt to a crisp) "Focaccia Chips" oh boy if you expect focaccia bread to be like a garlic covered kettle chip you won't be surprised. Well I can honestly say I didn't bother with the rest of the order and nothing like a partial refund for a total loss. Lesson learned this is a no go for delivery

  • Nicolette Lynch

Went for dinner Sunday night for adults and kids and we had to sit in an empty room and order from the counter. They brought out our pizzas but no one to wait on us. I guess kids aren't allowed in the other room where the bar and music is. We ate here pre-pandemic and they had a decently full dining room. I was shocked. The kids got to bounce around without anyone to annoy, but as far as atmosphere it's a negative twenty. Food was fine but not worth the money. I definitely want to support our local places so it pains me to write this, but I also think the reviews should be fair and inform others. I read them before I came and this place has a 4.5 rating but it is far from deserved based on my experience. Other families should be warned.

  • Maggie McKasson

The first time I went to Upper Crust was with a friend, and the pizza was great! The service was great too! I decided I would bring my family next time. The only complaint I really have is that they don't allow children to sit on the patio. My daughter and I stopped in there to have lunch at 1:45, the place was not busy and no one on the patio. We asked to sit outside and was told that was fine by the hostess, only then to be told we could not sit out there by a server as we were sitting down. We decided to leave. I know rules are rules but that is a stupid rule, especially for lunch. I would be more understanding of the rule if it was after 5pm for dinner. There are plenty more restaurants that allow children to be seated on the patio in the Phoenix area, so we'll continue to take our business to those establishments.

  • Vince L

Solid local place to grab a beer. The pizza is decent (Grimaldi’s-ish in style) and the quality of ingredients is evident - but the key for me to this type of pizza is the crust - and it’s just ok. Pizza was a bit floppy in the middle and the crust too thin+chewy for my taste, but definitely still a good pizza. Tip: Don’t listen when they tell you one large won’t feed a family of four. It’s thin, but pretty filling. The mozzarella appetizer is unique (wrapped in a very thin skin of pizza dough vs breaded). I’m not a fan myself (prefer battered or breaded), but I can see where someone might like it. Price-wise, it’s more than say Barro’s or Venezia’s, but it won’t break the bank. All-in-all, it’s a nice, local option.

Will NEVER come back here! My co-workers gave me a $50 gift certificate on my last birthday. I was visiting my son and took him, his girl, and my mother for pizza and wings and decided to use that gift card. When I tried to pay with the gift card I was told that the gift card was not good (even after I present the receipt from when it was purchased). They then told me that they quit selling gift cards in 2022 and that the gift card was not good because they no longer sell or accept them and best they could do is to give me $20 off my order. This is the way they do business?! I’d like to know what happen to the $50 my co-workers paid for the gift card. What total rip off. Can’t wait to let my co workers know how I “liked” this restaurant.

  • Erin Weems

The pizza and Alfredo are amazing! They have an amazing special on Tuesdays as well! Unlike Chris down there, to most people the ordering system is pretty obvious and you can always call ahead if you have a question. There is a family friendly side and an adult side which is pretty great if you ask me! Plus I like the order at the front style anyways as it is faster service. You can't expect to be waited on and get mad that you don't if it's an order at the counter restaurant. THE RANCH IS TO DIE FOR BTW. I have come and the sauce was too sweet but the pizza was too good not to eat still, that has only happened maybe 2 times of the many I have been.

  • Rosie Kirkpatrick

The food was incredible and the other service we received was great, but the first server I had was visibly stressed out behind the bar, and slammed the menu on my table while she was walking by and I was trying to get her attention. It was totally bizarre to me, so I asked for the woman who sat us to serve us, I think her name was Katarina? She was lovely, but somehow we had 3 other people serving us which was a bit overkill, and I was shocked to find out that the server that did that to me was the manager of the place. She never came up and apologized for the mishap, which I found even more unprofessional. The food was fantastic but for this reason, I’ll cross this one of my list in the future.

  • Chase

Love this place! Been going here for years since its super close to my house. Lets start with the pizza because that's there bread and butter. The pizza itself is more of an artisan pizza with a nice crispy crunch to the crust. They designed the pizza to not be to crazy on the cheese which balances it out nicely. Highly recommend the pepperoni pizza its me go too every time. The wings follow close behind and I mean right behind the pizza. easily top three wings I've ever had! They are just the right amount of smothered with a little crunch to the skin just how I like it. The beer on tap is always good and the atmosphere is more of a romantic / sport bar.

  • Brian and Theresa McLaughlin Sullivan

This place has great food,a fantastic bar selection ( including Belgium style Raspberry Lambic on tap!!!) It would get 5 stars from us , except,after going many times and spending tons of money ,( our regular round of beverages is 16$ for two Lambics) ,we have only encountered one bartender who was truly outgoing, customer service oriented and Fair- every other staff member that we have encountered has been rude as can be !! I guess the Lambic is just that good !!!!

  • Derek Price

The sad thing about this review is that I really enjoy coming here and enjoy the food as well. What made this review a 2 was the service. The service is typically good, however this time it was very poor. From the get go the waitress seemed like she wasn't happy to do her job. She was rude, we had to ask to get something we wanted and she was very forgetful. My kids didn't get to eat because of her communication with the kitchen staff. After this experience I question wether I'd like to return or not. If management cares about their returning customers they should have a serious talk with server Dayna 16385. This service is unacceptable.

  • Kevin Cobb

Been coming here for years. The atmosphere isn’t bad but it tends to be a little dark, like a lounge. Food is good, service is always good and the staff is always willing to put a tv on whatever sports you want. The music playing could be better. The bar usually has a crowd of 35+ but they keep playing pop or top 40 hits. Us people over 35 don’t care to hear this music. Read the room and play what the people in there will like. Country or classic rock is the best way to go. People might actually stay longer if the music is good. This isn’t old town Scottsdale!

This is the first time I have had pizza from here. Although Carona wouldn’t let us eat there... I still love this place. Marissa was a lovely, very friendly woman. I am allergic to wheat and this place has a great selection of gluten free options!!!! I ate wings and cauliflower crust pizza and didn’t get sick. I do think it is a bit pricey but worth it when there’s great customer service and great food as well as people who care enough to keep caution when dealing with an allergy. I don’t get that respect eating out very often so it is very much noticed & appreciated when received. Thank you Ladies!

  • Cheree Frausto

Would highly recommend this spot. Spinach artichoke dip was yummy, pizza was good as well as the boneless wings. The vibe was really neat, relaxing yet fun & inviting. Happy hour foods work perfect for those who prefer to munch on a little of everything, so we share.

I went there for drinks after myself and a few girlfriends had been out to dinner. Not a lot of people there for a Friday night. We wanted to sit out on the patio in the comfy chairs but others were sitting there. They need more comfy chairs outside. We ended up inside and had our drinks when it was they were closing, so we thought they were going to kick us out. They told us to stay and finish our drinks while they finished cleaning up. It was nice not to be just kicked out. Friendly staff working there and a good cold drinks.

Table service is inconsistent, so bar seating is the best bet. Great food for soy allergies and ciliacs!! Try the stuffed mushrooms, Greek salad with grilled chicken and oil & vinegar AND the cauliflower pizza! They have gluten friendly beer to boot!!

We wanted to sit outside. The tables were locked and the key lost. Waitress got our order wrong and was going to charge us to make it right. The salad had so many onions, if the itatian was house made you'd never know it. Very disappointed in food. The pizza was very bland. If there was sauce it was very very light. When you're paying 18.00 for pizza it should be pretry tasty, not tasteless. Won't be going back. Reading past reviews maybe this was an off day for the cook. This sure is nothing like past reviews.

  • Justin Watson

Google price is extremely wrong , Service at the counter was rude . Got home and half the order was missing,and the wings way over deep fried and we asked for extra sauce and they were dry . Called back about our missing order and mgr was rude about the whole situation. Asked for a refund and didn’t even do that correctly. Worst experience I’ve ever had. Will not recommend this place at all. If I could I’d give zero stars on services and management

They have great happy hour deals and are about the only place left with a 7PM cut off - perfect for people that work after 5PM. I have never been let down with the food. The pizzas and hot wings were great. Service varies depending on your server but is OK. Beer selection on tap is not huge but they have stuff I like, and some bottles. It is also GREAT that no kids are allowed in the bar or patio area. Great place to relax or watch games without screaming kids. Free wifi from Coffee Bean next door :)

  • Jackie Jones

Their pizza is wonderful, however, the last time we were there we ordered a BBQ chicken pizza. The pizza came with very little BBQ sauce. When we asked for the sauce we were informed we would have to pay for it. I did tell one of the cooks what had happened and he immediately brought us BBQ sauce and he didn't charge us.

I have been coming here for years and am currently sitting in their comfortable corner booth. I have never waited for a table, I have never waited for a server, and often times mutiple people will ask if they can help you. The food is OK, the pizza is good, the wings are great (particularly the honey hot), and the happy hour is phenomenal. Exactly in that order. Don't expect a michelin star meal, but if you like great food, great service in a relaxing atmosphere, do stop by this local favorite.

  • JennMartin E

Came here because we got a coupon for a bogo pizza, so glad we did! The pizza was fantastic, the ingredients are so fresh. You won't be disappointed. Its great because you can get the restaurant feel or a bar feel. The two rooms are separated so can be more casual or date night kinda thing. Patio seating also. The best Arnold Palmer as well. The pasta was ok, but the pizza is a must. We didn't end up using our coupon at the time, we actually forgot about it. Guess that means we're going back!!

  • John Leeno

This place has seemed to have gone downhill in the last couple of years. We used to love it, the service was good and the food was consistent. We just went tonight. They served me the wrong pizza. Told me they could fix it but it would take 15-20 minutes. So I said no. And instead of comping my pizza, they gave me a coupon for a free pizza on my next visit. Kind of an odd business practice and not the best customer service.

Love, love, love this place! I love that it's locally owned. I love that they use fresh ingredients (make their mozzarella, for goodness' sake!). I love their happy hour (4-7 weekdays! Perfect for early dinner!). I love their meatballs and stuffed mushrooms. And the servers that I've had there were always friendly and helpful. The people who complain about not being able to sit out on the patio with people under 21 - it's a BAR area. C'mon, people! That just makes sense.

Delicious meals!!! Hannah is an awesome waitress. She's always smiling & makes you feel happy & welcome. Her recommendations are always accurate. She knows the menu very well. She let us know it was 1/2 price Wineday (Wednesday actually). My husband ordered a bottle & brought some home. I ordered a large Orange Blossom beer. My favorite!!! He had a stromboli & I had ravoli.

We have ordered from here multiple times using the Slice App. On at least three different occasions the order has been messed up. Tonight was the last straw, and we will need to find another pizza place. Our order arrived 30 minutes later than the estimate, the pizza was cold, and we were missing our fried mozzarella (the only reason we have continued to order from them). It is sad that they don't pay attention to detail. Well, three strikes you're out...

  • Den G

First time at this place and was not disappointed. Everything was great and tasty! Ordered pizza and wings the pizza has such a great flavor and the meat, cheese, and sauce are really good. The young man who helped us was very helpful nice and gave us great service. The wings were juicy delicious sauce tasted great to the point we did not touch our blue cheese they were that good and flavorful on their own. Definitely recommend and will be back!!

  • Mich L

Great place, good atmosphere and amazing Sangria. Wine list is not to small but not overwhelming. Pizza was good id you enjoy thin, Like New York style thin. What really drove my review though was the spinach and artichoke dip. It was the best I've had in a long long time. I'm a bit of a food snob, but this was fresh and homemade tasting. It's def a must try at least once. it was creamy, tasty and heaven in your mouth. Would come again

  • J Dodson

Good beer and wine selection. Service was excellent. There's a restaurant area, and a bar area, separated by a door which i liked. Food was good! Thin crust pizza is very good. I noticed some complaints about the pizza being soggy. For those that don't know, that's the nature of thin crust after it's been sitting around a while. You gotta eat it up while it's nice and hot - the way thin crust is supposed to be eaten. Just saying.

  • ZYRINE CALUCER

Ordered pizza (sausage/pepperoni) / wings (hot). Always a fan of their wings; extra crispy and definitely has a hit. Thin pizza . Definitely not busy during our visit, I think there was a total of 7 people inside. The bar was pretty empty as well. Don't let that fool you though, I've come here during some busy nights too! Staff was super nice too !

When we got there, it was a little confusing as to where we should sit. I had to ask the bartender. We got a table on the patio and it was very nice. The service was excellent. Our server was very attentive and hospitable. The spinach and avacado dip was some of the best I ever had! The pizza was also delicious! It was a little more expensive than I anticipated, but overall a great experience. We will be back!

We come here almost every week for happy hour. The food is always amazing and the staff is always extremely friendly, welcoming, and attentive. One of our favorite neighborhood spots! You can tell they take pride in what they do and customer service is a priority of theirs. They always greet us when we walk in and help us find a seat at the bar. Great food and amazing staff, what more could you ask for!

Do not bring a family here for OSU watch party. Not family friendly. We are both alumni and were visiting AZ. Searched around alumni site and found this. Walked into a bar with cranky old men telling us no kids allowed. The front room where families were allowed was dark and the TV broadcasting the game had no reception. Our family had gone to watch parties in many states and never encountered this.

Went there on a whim while I was in the area. Customer service was awesome; very attentive and courteous. The pizza was perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. We ordered BBQ wings and they were awesome! They were big and meaty, the sauce tasted great. Overall, way above my expectations for a random pizza place. Will be reccomending to friends and family and will definitely be back!

"I'm still waiting to be impressed". Was way to expensive for take out. Over $50.00 for Spaghetti and meatballs, for 2. $4.50 a meatball the size of golf ball. Unfortunately I got 2. Took over 45 min (For pasta on a Friday night).

I have been coming here for a long time. I watch baseball, basketball, and football here while enjoying a nice cold drink and pizza. Their pizza is amazing and the service is great. Definitely get a salad as they are very big. Get a small, you'll thank me, unless you have a family of 6, then get large. Their smoked wings are delicious and they smoke them there.

  • Dave Baker

Good food friendly service. Great dessert. Very good happy hour that i have enjoyed several times, but only in bar came with group for happy hour had a baby with us would not allow in bar area or patio and would not extend happy hour to group even though we were one of only 2 tables occupied in the dining area. Usually able to get a seat with no issues..

  • G H

Been here twice and both times were good. I’ve tried pizza, Stromboli, calzone and pasta with meat sauce. Everything is tasty. The service is always friendly and accommodating. They have a pretty good beer selection on draft. Pasta is family size. So when you order the small, it is enough for two. I’m looking forward to sampling more things on the menu.

  • Dani

We just ordered a Upper Trio and it was the worst pizza I’ve had there!! We ordered the crust extra crispy and yet you could hardly hold it in your hand it was so soggy. Way too much tomato sauce and it had no flavor and hardly any cheese. For over $34.00 we will not go again.

I love this place. I have been coming here for quite some time. The servers are friendly. Kerri was our server tonight and she was attentive and kind. I highly recommend coming here for a relaxing atmosphere. Ordered the bbq chicken specialty pizza along with the tiramisu and they were amazing! Drank the lemon drop shot and the tropical DNA ipa.

  • Thomas Buttino

Hmmm... Cold pizza and charcoal "wings". This place is total garbage. Too bad because it used to be our favorite (even if it was $45 for a pizza and wings.) Do yourself a favor and order from Venezias instead.

Greatest pizza delivery service EVER!!! The food is great but those drivers always have it at my door fast and in great condition, something I can’t say about other local pizzerias. On top of that they are some fine young men! I’m sure the in-house service is great but I’ll never go in as long as those boys are bringing me my food. …

  • Matthew Braney

This place is hands down the best pizza I have ever had in my life. My food was fast and my server Erica was very attentive to my table. We had a meat lovers large pizza and wings. I will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family. If you want great food and a family fun atmosphere of all ages go here.

  • Jordan Nolan

Katie is a great bartender! Pizza is good and wings are excellent, two different atmospheres with their bar side that's 21+ or their dining area. This is an awesome place!

  • Mimi Burke-Krouse

The food was great! We loved our Cesar salad, meatballs wings & pasta. The pizza was fantastic. Real thin crust with great sauce and sausage. Had a good spice to it. Even had great warm cookie dessert with ice cream. I was really surprised how much we liked the food! Gave it four stars because the waiters were forgetful but friendly.

  • Lakaija Owens

About 2 years ago I gave Upper Crust a 2 star review for customer service, because it truly sucked every time I went. I've recently been going back and they have truly improved on how quickly they greet guest, food ticket times, and customer service in general. Their wings and spinach dip are delicious. They have a great happy hour!

  • Nathan Zachariae

Trash ... update the response i would assume from here 45 Mins late for a togo pizza only to get with light sauce after wanted extra.. sauce has zero flavor!. Crust is good cheese is good but sauce and on time approach , and staff additudes demonstrated right here

Food and atmosphere are AWESOME! This has become our go-to place for getting the family together and inviting friends out for great pizza, wings, and desserts. Nice wine list too! Steve, the owner, seems to be a great guy and has always treated us like family when we are there. Give them a try...you won't be sorry.

  • LaToya Washington

Wowee!! This place is amazing. I'm not big on pizza unless the ingredients are quality. The crust on this pizza is perfect. Thin crust so you bite into all the ingredients and don't get a bunch of bread. The cheese and toppings were so tasty. A medium was two big for two of us, so keep that in mind if you order.

  • Laura B

I ordered a Stromboli and it was not good at all. It was way too salty, it didn't have enough cheese, and the bread wasn't pleasant. I'm not sure if it even deserves to be called a Stromboli. I had a microwaved stomboli better than this! Maybe I should have ordered a pizza...

My friend and I went for happy hour. I haven't been there in years. We had a blast! The food was just as amazing as always. Our server was Nate and he was a super chill dude and he did an awesome job of looking after us. We had some apps and some drinks and it felt like home. Can't wait for the next time!

  • Linda Kolena

Was here last November and had a party of 5. Service was great. We had Dave and Laura. The pizzas we ordered was thin crust and very tasty. We ordered wings and bread with a few beers. This place was very outstanding... can't wait to get back to AZ and get some good Pizza and service...love this place..

  • Jennifer Mitchell

Service was fast and friendly. Food was delicious! They make their cheese from scratch at this location. They didn't put a ton of sauce on the pizza, which I loved. You do have to pay for each ingredient unless you order a specialty pizza so it's a little more expensive but the service makes up for it.

  • Nick Wise

Nice mood with dim lighting and an eclectic modern vibe. Menu items tasted classic with rich flavor while prepared superbly with perfect crusts and fresh mozzarella cheese. Served with a drink list anyone could enjoy from simple to complex. Highly recommended and I'd eat there daily if I was closer.

  • Kriss Wheeler

Service was excellent ! I got the cheese pizza and house Salad lunch deal. $6...What a deal! My wine cost more than lunch as usual, but it was fantastic too! I will definitely be back. Decided last minute to order dessert, best decision I made! Our server Scott was AMAZING! That guy needs a raise.

  • Charles McCallops

Couldn't find a complaint if I looked. Everything was top- notch. I recommend it to any pizza lover anywhere!!

This place was a nice surprise! The happy hour is awesome, the house red wine was really nice, the pizza was great (we are from Chicago and like super thin crust and are tough critics - this was really good pizza). Our waitress was awesome and finally the prices were really really fair.

  • Lauri Stephens

We ordered an 18" and had it split. Half was the meats lovers or whatever they called it. The other half was the artichoke and basil paste. We were very pleased with the flavor, lots of garlic which we like. Also liked the thin crust, too.

Picked up a couple of pizzas. Terrible for the cost. They were mostly sauce and nearly no toppings. For about $60 it was a rip. I hate domino's but I would take that over this.

Food is always on point and the service is great too.I always get pizza and the strawberry spinach salad which is killer. This time I ventured out and got a calzone with meatballs and kalamata olives and it was amazing. They also have so many great beers on tap.

  • Steve Jahneke

The bar is a nicer than average place. Beer selection is diverse and includes some high end brews. Wings were great. Emily was very nice, attentive and professional. Conformable atmosphere. If you're in the area, I strongly suggest stopping in :)

Pizza has to have right balance between crust and sauce and this place has my favorite pizza by far!!! Their thin crust is THE BEST and has great flavor ensuring we eat the entire slice and the sauce is equally delicious. Highly recommend!

  • Josh Range

Prices were a bit higher than shown on the website. They also would not apply the $1 off drinks for happy hour on their beer or wine even thought it was listed on the menu. Food was not bad but overall to expensive for a happy hour spot.
