| - The story starts at Mac's.
Mac's is the sad pub next door to Sacred Pi.
I'm always on the look out for cute bars, not too far from my my house, that has good food, and good service.
Well, who doesn't want all that, to be honest.
Anyway, Mac's now sucks, but I couldn't figure out why, so I was there trying to figure out why, and serendipitously, I met Svein, the bartender from Sacred Pi.
I got to chatting with Svein, who previously worked for Sam Fox, and after meeting with him, I couldn't wait to try Sacred Pi.
SACRED PI
Sacred Pi is the brainchild of Mike Barro, the son of the juggernaut Barro's Pizza, on the southwest corner of McClintock and Guadalupe, in Tempe, Arizona.
After growing up enveloped in his families local business, Barro's Pizza, Mike ventured to San Francisco to learn all there is to know from pizza expert, Tony G at the International School of Pizza.
Years later, Mike decided to put his expertise to use... and thus, Sacred Pi was born.
Everything at Sacred Pi is cooked in their 100% wood-burning brick oven. They make their dough fresh, by hand, everyday. They pull their mozzarella cheese fresh, by hand, everyday. They take pride in their local, fresh, and organic ingredients.
Gluten-Free, Vegetarian, and Vegan options available and delicious.
THE STORY & SERVICE EXPERIENCE
I popped in this week.
I walked in and was delightfully surprised.
Immediately, I saw all of the great things that make a restaurant fun and cool.
There was a cute and fun hostess, a super cute atmosphere with hippie chic décor, and groovy music.
The place was packed, Svein was behind the bar, and Mike was in the kitchen.
I sat at the bar and I was already happy, I just had to try the food.
I couldn't wait to try their photo worthy beeramisu, so that's what I ordered first. Omgaaaah SCRUMMY!! I wish it wasn't that good, because I'm totally hooked.
I tried the meatball sub, with spicy fresh meatballs, fresh mozzarella cheese, and fresh scratch made bread. The meatballs were good, the sub was a tad bread-y.
I ended with the Cannolis, which were good, but not great; the filling was a bit bland and it was a bit too crunchy.
Whilst sitting at the bar, a who's who of Tempe filtered in. I had a chance to chat with them, as well as long time Mac's regulars too. It looks like Mac's is officially out, and Sacred Pi is in.
I was so impressed with the place, I asked Svein, if he could have the perfect Yelp review, what would he want in it. He said, "great service, great fresh food, and a great selection of wines and brews." All of which, I totally agree.
My only complaint is that when I went to write the review, I saw Mike Barro had taken a bunch of liberties with my copyrighted and metadata encrypted photos to promote his business on all of his social media platforms, including his business and personal IG, and FB, without giving photo credits nor asking permission.
Tisk Tisk Mike. I don't steal your food, don't steal my intellectual property.
CONCLUSION
Sacred Pi is fun, cute, and delicious.
