The 39 best pizzas in Phoenix (2024)

Such a delicious dining experience. The pizza was as good as everyone says it is. Long wait (2.5) hours was extreme, but worth it for the foodie experience. After watching Chef's Table, I had to try it and I wasn't disappointed. Everything was fresh and served to order. Service was great, too.

We actually tried to eat here three times before getting in. First time was a Friday night at the Adams Street location. Got there at 5. 1-1.5 hr wait. I prob would’ve understood except all the outside tables were empty and half the interior tables were empty???? So how there was a 2 hr wait I don’t understand. We ended up going across the way to Latha and got drinks after 1.5 hr got appetizer and one entree to snack on at Latha. After 2 hrs, he led with host and they still did not table for us. Crazy.We removed our name and stayed at Latha - Food there was top notch!!!!Next day tried to call and see if we could do pick up or takeout nobody would answer phone at either location.Sunday, went to location on N 20th right when it opened at 11 and there was already a line. Only had to wait maybe 5 min. Server was wonderful. She seemed taken a back by our experience Friday not being able to get a seat.We ordered the fresh mozerella, paperedella pasta, Rosa pizza and margherita pizza.Thoughts:Prob best caprese salad I have ever had. That mozerella cheese is out of this world.The paparedella pasta ( homemade) with the Ragu ❤️. Prob one of the best ragu pasta dishes I have ever had. And for a place famous for its pizza, mePersonally I would say skip the pizza and do the pasta and mozerella. You won’t regret itThe pizza - the Rosa has a very unique combination of flavors and textures. Not my favorite but I didn’t hate it.The margherita pizza - rich tomato sauce creamy mozerella and fresh basil, the the star of the show on both pizzas was the crust. Just crispy enough around edges to give it crunch but not doughy.Would I say it’s best slice ever, no. Luckily in Lincoln, NE we have to great pizza places with great unique flavor combinations and some solid crusts as well. But that caprese and pasta are top notch!!!

You can expect a 2 hour minimum wait but it wasn’t too bad. We went next door for drinks and appetizers (bread and salami).The pizza is very good. I think we may have gotten in on a night when the oven was a little too hot. Pretty much every pizza was slightly over charred at the edge to. I like a good char on pizza but this was a little too far.You only get 1 opportunity to at the beginning so you have to order everything at once. Luckily the pizza takes a little while to come out so you have time to enjoy salads. We had the fresh mozzarella salad (mozzarella, roasted peppers, EVOO, basil, salt and pepper). It was outstanding and I highly recommend it.Pizzas we tried: margarita, sonny boy and wise guy.Margarita was great, the sauce is excellent.Sonny boy was very good also.Wise guy had a bunch of ingredients that I though would be great but I feel like they didn’t go well together.

The pizza definitely lived up to the lofty expectations, the fresh ingredients were so apparent and made a world of difference in the flavor, it's almost as if they were crushing the Roma tomatoes by hand in the kitchen. Even the red pepper flakes were fresh, they were potent. The moisture from the tomatoes did make the pizza a little soggy in the middle, but that didn't ruin the experience. We really enjoyed the bread and olive oil appetizer, but the bread was cold and we would have liked it warmed a bit. The atmosphere was bustling and the excitement was palpable, although it's a little cramped and there isn't much room on the tables if you're getting multiple pies. The service was excellent all around. It was a terrific experience and well worth the wait.

I will give this place 3/5 stars overall. It may be some of the best pizza around, but the service left something to be desired.We waited 2 hours to be seated this morning and as soon as we sat down it seemed like the server was trying to rush us out of the restaurant. The food certainly made it worth the wait. However, our server significantly detracted from the ambiance and food. She may have been having a bad day, but did not seem like she enjoys her job and she might consider looking into doing something else.We asked for suggestions and what were some of the more popular pizzas. The flatly delivered response we received was, "We've had the same menu for 29 years and it depends on the day." Not very helpful. Once you have one piece of pizza left, get ready for them to come and box it up for you and drop off the check. Very off-putting after an extended waiting period, especially when trying to enjoy a meal with family.

One of the best pizza.We went their for lunch and this place is very popular and usually there is a waiting.We tried margarita and Rosa and they both were delicious.I would call them authentic Italian Naples style pizza.Rosa Pizza were very different with pistachio sprinkled over it. And it was white sauce pizza.

I waited about 45min at 8pm without a reservation.I had the pizza, pasta and dessert. ( rice pudding- 🤤🤤🤤) Over all a really good experience. Would of been a fun place to go with a friend, alas I was alone.Staff was great and very attentive but not annoying. I will for sure go back. The bar tender is named Anthony so you know if they are hiring Italians… must be good. 😌

Salad, pizza and drinks. They can get busy but it's worth the wait. Awesome atmosphere. Old brick building that was used as a blacksmith shop back in the day. Walking distance to sports complexes. The fresh mozzarella salad was good, the white sauce pizza was better with the sausage and onions, but the red sauce was much too heavy and the olives were a bit strong in flavor and overwhelming. When I got back to Phoenix I had to come back here and eat the same pizza. Did it disappoint? No! The crisp salami tips were the best part. I wished for a little more olives but towards the end it became borderline salty so I think the proportions were well thought out. The pizza is amazing. Wood fired crust, perfect amount of sauce and toppings. Just amazing.

We waited almost 3 hours to get a table. It was a beautiful day for a walk. They said they would call us when the table was open. The wait was worth it! As we discussed why this was the gold standard for wood fired pizza our conversation zeroed in on the pizza dough. We concluded that it met everything we like about what a great dough perfectly cooked would taste like, in the same pizza. It was light yet strong. The edges were properly burnt but almost ate like a great cracker. It had just the right thinness. Everything else maintained this level of excellence. Want to know more? Read more reviews hahaha! Or better yet, go there.

Food was absolutely outstanding. Best pizza I’ve ever had. Everything handmade and fresh, my family and I are out of town and are huge on pizza. This place did not disappoint!

Came in at about 1115 am on a Thursday it was packed but was able to snag a seat at the bar. The staff was fantastic. The space is small but it's perfect inside, nice and quaint. Had a couple beers on tap and went with the Wiseguy Pizza. I was not disappointed the flavor was top notch. If you're in the Phoenix area make sure to stop in but if you're not there when they open be prepared for a wait.

My wife and I love pizza! Finding great food spots let alone pizza spots is fundamental when traveling or moving to a new city. Doing some research led us to Pizzeria Bianco.Excellent customer service throughout our stay. Even though the restaurant was packed/busy, we got all our dishes in a timely manner, we didn’t have to wait long like most places.The food was delicious. I got fresh mozzarella with basil, tomato, and olive oil. Extremely delicious and ate nearly every bite of it. Wasn’t disappointed. My wife went out of here comfort zone and ordered a pizza with pistachios, surprisingly it was quite good. Wasn’t expecting it to be good, but turned out to be delicious.Whether your a local or traveler, if this isn’t on your list already, make sure to add it because it’s a place we’ll be going back to.

All it’s been said to be!I arrived with three friends on a Tuesday afternoon. We wanted to go around lunch, as we thought it’d be less crowded. We were told an hour wait but we’re given a table after 25 minutes.The staff was very friendly and it never felt chaotic inside but just well-oiled.The pizza - we tried four different ones - was absolutely delicious. Great ratio of crust to toppings and if you’re very hungry you’ll be able to eat an entire pizza without a problem. They’re delicious.A great trip to make if you find yourself in Phoenix.

waited an hour on an off peak period brightest legendary place. however once we finally ate we were slightly disappointed. the oh itself was amazing however the toppings did lack flavor and creativity. the sausage one was our favorite however the onion chunks were so large and definitely needed to be cut smaller, the Verde was too much arugula over a cheese pizza and could have definitely benefited from a crunchy or salty element. the staff was kind enough to give us also another pizza for free .

In my opinion, Pizzeria Bianco lives up to its reputation. The pizza was delicious. Staff was friendly and attentive. We went on a Monday around 2:00 and there was no wait. The only thing that I would bring up is the price. The bill for two small pizzas (they only offer one size), a beer, and a glass of wine was over $90 plus $10 for valet. Overall, our experience was great and worth the trip. It was definitely the best pizza that I've had since living in CT.

I had a delightful experience here. The ambiance of the place is really cool, with its brick oven taking center stage. Watching the pizzas being prepared right in front of you adds a unique touch to the dining experience. The outdoor seating area is gorgeous, perfect for enjoying a meal in good weather 😊While I've heard a lot about the food, I found it to be good, slightly overrated. That said, the mozzarella salad stood out as truly amazing – a must-try for anyone visiting. The staff at Pizzeria Bianco were friendly and contributed to the welcoming atmosphere

Amazing experience. Temperature was perfect to sit outside. Wish they had a little bit more options on the menu and also they do not serve liquor. But overall it was great. The food was phenomenal. A+

It's important to remember when coming to Pizzeria Bianco that it's JUST pizza. It's also probably the best pizza in the US. And definitely the best I've ever had.I arrived on a Thursday night at 8, and was told the wait would be 1 hour. I went next door and hung out on the porch of Bar Bianco.30 minutes later, I got a text that my table was ready.I was seated quickly & waited on quickly. I looked a little at appetizers but didn't order any, they looked nice.I ordered two pizzas, the "Sonny Boy" -- Red Sauce, fresh mozzarella, salami, olives -- and the "Rosa"Both came out very quickly. Within 10 minutes of me ordering them.Both were made with the best ingredients I've ever had on a pizza. Each individual component was better than any component on any other pizza.I'm a big red sauce guy, but I had to get the one that started it all (The Rosa). For me, the Sonny Boy won out. If you prefer red pizzas, I wouldn't hesitate to order one. I'm sure all the pizzas are exceptional, and in the future, I'll order strictly based on my preference.The vibes here are immaculate, the staff is fantastic, and the place deserves its reputation.To circle back to my initial comment, it is JUST pizza. By that I mean that it's not a religious experience. It's fantastic pizza, the absolute best. I personally couldn't justify making a trip to Phoenix just to come here.For any pizza head, it's best to run, don't walk, to Pizzeria Bianco.Important to note that 9PM (or whenever closing is) is the last seating, the restaurant will be open later if you arrive. I would advise not arriving right before 9, but 8:30 should be OK.

We came here 30min before opening and there was already a line down the street. We got the last bar seats before they announced that the next table will be seated in 1.5h. The team worked together like a well oiled machine so we got our order within 25min. The pizza was as delicious as we’d hoped! Their sausage is some of the best I’ve ever had. Every ingredient is of high quality. Sitting by the bar us allowed us to watch them make pizzas and I highly recommend doing that!

We had heard about this place on TV. It did not disappoint. Our family is on a road trip and ate here. The pizza had the best and freshest ingredients. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. We ordered 5 different pizzas and shared them.

Wow, I am from NY and I tried many good pizzas around in NYC. And this pizza is totally blew my mind with texture and taste. I got non alcoholic ginger beer and margarita pizza. I can tell that pizza was really good. And ginger beer has really strong flavor with good spice. I will miss that pizzeria.And beware that you can’t order extra pizza after your first order. If you want to share with someone you like, order with your first order.

Pizza was very good. Arguably the best crust I’ve ever had and fresh ingredients. But we waited 3 hours for a table. After returning 2.5 hours and asking for an update we were informed of priority in the bar next door. After being seated the staff had 1 focus: to get you out as fast as possible. Also parking is validated in the science center garage and found that out that out the hard way.

As seen on Chef’s Table. The show built this place as the best pizzeria on earth in the back of my head so I had to make the detour and try it out.A detail oriented service paired with a warm and cozy atmosphere.Fresh ingredients beautifully paired together. The pie was a little dry for my taste but still top tier pizza.

Even before their appearance on Netflix I have been a fan of Pizzeria Bianco and always wanted to visit and fortunately I was able to! The place is small and busy but well worth the wait! A great place that deserves all the accolades. We basically ordered everything and shared and enjoyed every as well as their selection on beer as we waited. Staff was amazing and made our experience great!

Honestly. I'm not saying it's not good. We did wait for 2 hours 15 min. I also didn't realize only 2 people are making the food. What?!All I will say is, if you want to try it go right when they are closing or after 3 but before 5.If you want amazing pizza..... go to True Food. Better quality I think.However! The olive oil was amazing there. So put that on your pizza. We bought 2 bottles to go it was that good.The Mozzarella salad was also really good.

Nice patio area where we sat to enjoy beers during the very long wait. That said, the wait was well worth it! We showed up on a Thursday evening around 5:15 pm and had about a 90 minute wait. We enjoyed some beers while waiting. The Church Music IPA was delicious and exactly what I wanted in this nice spring evening. We ordered antipasto, which was amazing, and I personally ordered the Rosa pizza. All rave reviews from my group. We also got the chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies to go. Glad to say I visited!

Bianco Pizzeria is EXCEPTIONAL. If you have a chance to go, you certainly should.Lunch for 2 order (shared)Soppressata sandwich: The sandwich was spectacular. Bread was perfect, ratio of salami/provolone was on point, the peppers were delicious.Pro tip: order a side of tomato sauce to dip the sandwich in.Rosa pizza: the pizza was a 10/10 from tip to crust. Amazing flavors and the dough was baked to perfection.We had extremely high expectations going to Pizza Bianco and our expectations were exceeded.Thank you!

While we were in Phoenix we told ourselves we had to go here. We've been hearing about how great it was. Well the first day we missed it by a hour. Then the second day it was Easter and they closed early. So today the day we go home we were determined to go. Waited 2 hours but it was so worth it. The Mozzarella salad was amazing, so flavorful and the perfect amount. We couldn't decide which pizza to get so we got 3. The Margherita pizza was so light and simple but done perfectly. My husband's favorite was Sonny Boy, it was so good. Very glad we got to experience it. If you are in the area do it but remember there will be a long wait so don't go hungry

This met our every expectation. The pizzas were fantastic. The sonny boy and wise guy were great opposites and both checked every box. This may quite possibly be the best crust, texture and flavor, that I have ever had. And I have had East, west, North and South pizza and everywhere in between. The market salad was simple but excellent quality and great balance in flavors and ingredients. Really intended to be a supplement to pizza, I think, and we shared it. The pizza flavors and balance was really delicious. You can tell they only use the highest quality as you eat it.We stopped over tot he bar next store while waited and the Owner stopped bay and chatted with us for a few minutes. He was apologetic for the wait, but honestly it ended up not being bad at all, and frankly good for them. People should patron them because they deliver an outstanding product! He highlighted a few pizza places from our home city, and he was totally right, it was funny. Super nice guy, and as genuine as you saw from the Netflix show. It was a pleasant surprise in our visit.I would say I think this exceeded Pizzeria Lola, but honestly, they are just different, and there is plenty of pizza everyone that is great because of these people who have elevated it to new levels?Do not pass up an opportunity to go here!

Place is adorable! Menu is small and efficient. Had to wait an hour on a Monday afternoon for a table for two. If we had other plans, I probably wouldn't have opted to wait, but we were at the end of our trip and relaxed in the sunshine while we waited for a table. Once seated our food came quickly. The pizza is very good. Liked the arugula pie better than the margherita, actually. Staff was pleasant and attentive.I definitely would NOT wait longer than I did - not a knock on this place but ideas on "best pizza in the world" are pretty subjective and I'm not sure there's any pizza I'd wait multiple hours for. Long story short - if you're a tourist and have nothing else to do and don't mind a wait, go for it?

My mom and I had a great time here. The wait was a bit longer than I had expected. It was okay because the bar next door had games and drinks and it went quickly. All the food was awesome, especially the mozzarella. It tasted so fresh. The pizza crust was perfect. We especially loved the sausage on the pizza. My mom grew up in Italy and loved it.Only issue was the table is soooo tiny, and we felt a bit rushed.Will still come back.
