  • I was first informed of Pizzeria Bianco from watching a Bon Appetit special on Food Network that featured the best of "...". Third place was Mozza in Los Angeles, Second was Di Fara's and the best in the country was Pizzeria Bianco. Coming from a renowned source making a "best in the country" statement is pretty bold. Why Lombardi's in NY or Frank Pepe's in New Haven didn't finish top 3, I'll never know... So I had a floating holiday that I took and decided to take the family to Phoenix, AZ. The main reason? To call out Bon Appetit on their bluff. Read up from many sources, like Yelp and Chowhound, and was told to get in line at least 1.5 hours before they open @ 5pm. You can read from the other reviews that they spent 3-4 hours waiting to get in. Plan ahead and you'll avoid their fates... Got there @ 3:15pm on a Friday with mags and a cold drink. Within 15 mins, two cars pulled into the parking lot and within 30 minutes, twenty people lined up behind me. Thank God I did not take the warning lightly and so we waited... Finally opened @ 5pm and not a second earlier. Got seated and we ordered the homemade mozzarella, tomatoes and basil appetizer. The real deal definitely tastes different than the factory produced ones: it had texture and character, but could use a splash of balsamic vinegar. Highly recommended. We then ordered the Margherita (ask for extra basil) and the Wiseguy. The Wiseguy was thick wood roasted onions, house smoked mozzarella and fennel sausage. While other tables took their leftovers home, we demolished dem two pizzas. The verdict: while it was the best pizza I had on the west coast, I must say it was not the best in the country, although it came very close. I am thankful that they are only 6 hours away from So Cal, so a weekend trip can be had at any time. Housekeeping notes: Make sure to start a wait list. There are going to be snakes that try to jump the line. Pizzeria Bianco doesn't start their list until 5pm, so that only applies to the second seating. Bring reading materials and cold drinks (as it was 100 outside). Stay hungry, my friends...and good eatings!
