Visiting area and I was in the mood for pizza. I checked out top places in Tempe and found Spinelli's Pizzeria in the top 10. It was a short walk from the light rail to their front door.
I was a little concern if the kitchen would still be serving at 10 pm but was very pleased they make pizzas until 5 am.
Seating was no problem. They had a DJ playing music which was okay but a little loud. Service was outstanding and great with suggestions. I remembered to check in and was rewarded with a free dessert. Now the hard part was deciding what to do for dinner.
We went with the pepperoni knots and a meat lovers pizza. Pizzas are 18 inches and hand tossed to a thin crust. We did a full pizza even though we could have gotten a slice, but we wanted leftovers. As a note, the slices were about the size of a quarter of a full 18 inch pizza. However you do the math, they were huge.
Knots were great and flavorful. Pizza was also great. It was not greasy, had a thin crust and sauce did not have a sharp acid taste but was sweetish.
Our dessert was deep fried oreos. Sweet and nice way to end meal. Yes, this time I did save room for dessert. I was glad we found Spinelli's, they did a great job at satisfying that pizza craving.
