Whenever we go out for pizza, we always compare it to some old favorites: Oregano's, Sauce, and California Pizza Kitchen. Most of the time, pizza places can't even meet our "minimum" standard of Domino's. Sad but true. Now it's time to add another favorite to the list. It's surprising how fast the pizza is ready to eat and there isn't much of a wait since it bakes quickly and fresh ingredients are ready to put on the pizza. Their vegetarian pizza is one of the best on their menu. I've also had the tomato basil and a chicken pesto combo. The thin crust is perfection, cheese is stringy as if it was freshly made, and the sauce is great. We live in the north valley and it's great to have more choices for pizza. I'm especially impressed that it is less of a sit down restaurant and has high quality pizza at the same time. The prices are very reasonable too even including a tip. The selection of tea is meh if you're a hardcore tea drinker like me. I brew loose leaf Lupicia all the time at home, but the basic drink options are expected of a place like this.
If you are shopping at Scottsdale Quarter or Kierland Commons, this location is perfect as it's close by (even for walking). No wait and great pizza. What else do you want?
