I think the hype really affected my expectation of the place. Best pizza in the country? ...arguable.
We are in Phoenix for a few days and I had a few places already bookmarked. The magazine on the plane raved about this place as well as thrillist and some other foodie sites. Did I want to wait and hour and a half for the best pizza in the country? Not really...but I would have kicked myself if this place was right by my hotel and I didn't try it
We ordered the sonny boy and the wise guy. Great combinations and the topping to sauce to crust ratio is pretty on point. If you're looking for saucy, doughy pizza oozing cheese this is not for you. You get a delicate crust with light cheese which is the way I prefer it.
I was unimpressed with the crust though... Parts of it was too burnt to be edible.
Overall their menu was too limited to be satisfactory. Two pizzas was too much for two people, but the salads were boring and the appetizer were scarce in options.
Good, but not one and a half hour good...and definitely not the best I've ever had. $18 for a pizza that size is also ridiculous. To each his, or in my case, her, own
