    Spicy knots
    Jaquay R.

    I enjoyed my first dining experience here. Trying rhe spicy knots were the best. The dough was delifhtful and so good. The fresh minced garlic and hot chili oil makes this appetizer mouthwatering good. The meat calzone is super huge. I was able to eat off of it for 3 days. The inside of the restaurant is nice. Bery clean and spcaious.

    I come to Crust once (sometimes twice) a week for lunch. The pizza is delicious and is their daily wine by the glass special. Usually we are served by Gianna or Reese. Both of them are amazing and greet me by name whenever I come in. They are both so friendly and take great care of me and my family when we all come in. I have two young boys and they absolutely love the pizza and pink lemonade. Reese even took time to discuss the intricacies of Pokemon Go with my oldest lol. Thank you Crust for being so great!

    I ordered a Stromboli that is delicious. It was made to order and ill definitely recommend it. The only issue I have is something was spicy, I think it's the sauce that comes with Stromboli. Im dissapointed because I couldn't even eat half because my toungue is tingling from the Spice. I wish it would have said something about the spicy sauce. I couldn't continue to enjoy it. The big chocolate chip cookie was hard, over baked and not to tasty. service was good, clean resturant.

    Q: How do you fix a broken pizza? A: With tomato paste. Crust Pizzeria, what a hoot. Recently, a group of my friends and I had The Upside Down (Mozzarella, pizza sauce, parmesan) and The Burrata (Sausage, pesto, caramelized onions, pickled Fresno peppers, red pepper cream). While not my favorite pizza place, they're decent. I wouldn't order The Upside Down again, as I found the red sauce to be too sweet, but I always enjoy The Burrata. It's a great place. Support local and get some pizza here. There's plenty of seating, lots of parking, and you can even grab some froyo next door for dessert.

    Giana is amazing! She mixes my martinis perfectly. And she always makes me feel like we are best friends, like any good bartender. I absolutely love her!!

    Upside Down Sicilian Pizza (Mozzarella, pizza sauce, parmesan), $26.40

    Q: What does a pizza wear to smell good? A: Calzogne. If you like Crust Simply Italian, your cherished traditional NY East Coast Italian eatery, you will looove Crust Pizzeria. Sitting pretty in the Artichoke Basille's spot is the new Crust Pizzeria. My first visit had me ordering the Upstate NY Wings and the Upside Down Sicilian Pizza. Both were oh so good. Upstate NY Wings (Buffalo sauce, bleu cheese crumbles, pickled red onions, potato sticks, ranch), $14.30: Think of a fancified version of some buffalo wings. All the flavors and textures work well together and the buffalo wings itself were a delight. You don't need the extra accouterments but if you want to shell out a few more bucks, it's nice. I can never say no to blue cheese crumbles. Upside Down Sicilian Pizza (Mozzarella, pizza sauce, parmesan), $26.40: I really wanted a pizza where I can taste the sauce. With no fancy toppings, this pizza still delivered big flavor. And having eaten it cold from the fridge the next day, you can really taste how the sauce evolved. Amazing. Picasso! I'm a fan of Crust Simply Italian. While my heart breaks that I can no longer get an artery-clogging slice of artichoke pizza, this beloved brand is a mother's kiss and bandaid for this broken heart. Get it. Get it now.

    Great spot for NY style pizza in Tempe! Crust is the perfect spot for a casual family dinner, with tons of family style deals and quality food! The service was fast and friendly, making it perfect for an easy night out. Not only was their pizza delicious, but they also had a great variety of wings, salads, and calzones. Tried the -garlic parmesan wings: perfectly spicy with the fresno peppers and the croutons have a nice crunchy touch -grandmas 20' pie: great basic pie. simple toppings and flavors but does the job. also massive. -brooklyn burrata: great fun pizza, awesome flavor with the caramelized onion and pesto. got the rustica style pie which is a wine bottle shape, never had a pie like that before! -mediterranean farm salad: good starter salad but still hearty with the farro and numerous veggies

    We went on a Saturday for lunch around 12 and the whole place was empty which we found a little odd, but the food and drinks were great! The calzone is MASSIVE and you can even customize your own pizza slice. They definitely need a menu with the toppings they offer as the server had to verbally list them off for us, but the prices were very reasonable for a quick lunch.

    Garlic Knots
    Desiree D.

    It is worth coming here just for the garlic knots. They are amazing. Cute little restaurant in Tempe in a plaza off baseline near a few other restaurants and a movie theater. Service was quick and the restaurant was bright and inviting. Seriously get the garlic knots. The pizza slices were decent and large slices.

    We stopped in for a slice but that ends at 3pm. We ordered a large Bianca and added mushrooms and chicken. It was very good!! We would have loved some spinach but they don't carry it. The crust was perfect and the garlic was delicious! It was a quiet night and it was a peaceful setting. The staff was efficient.

    20" pizza with pepperoni and sausage

    OMG the food at Crust is drool worthy . My boyfriend and I decided to go out for dinner on a Friday night and were first surprised by no wait! We got the pizza and wing special along with some drinks. DELISH! The pizza is huge! We took half home to eat later. The BBQ wings were crispy and saucy, a favorite and I LOVE wings. The ranch was also soooo tasty. The outdoor seating is also so cute. The sun went down while we ate and the outdoor lighting was so cute and set the mood perfectly. I think I've found my new fave pizza spot.

    Pictured: Brooklyn Burrata Sausage, Pesto, Caramelized Onions, Fresno Peppers, & Spicy Ailoi Crust is a great neighborhood spot. Friendly staff (shoutout to Giana and Taylor!) who are always recommending food and cocktails. I've eaten my way through about 90% of the menu and have yet to find something I didn't like. Their personal size pizzas are a great deal, and they have great pasta options as well. With a glut of kind of cruddy pizza options, Crust has pizza that goes above and beyond. If you are looking for a place with excellent food, and a considerably quieter atmosphere than the Porch next door, come to Crust. A great spot for date night, dinner with the family, or maybe just grabbing a beer and some food after work.

    Grilled chicken side. So much flavor and so moist.
    Aaron S.

    After posting my previous review, I was contacted by the owner who offered to make things right and gave me information on who to contact. I'm always a bit skeptical when this happens, but I was informed that this location recently changed management from the last time I was there. I gave it another try today for lunch and I am so glad that I did. The previous experience was awful with what felt like food that had been sitting. This pizza was so fresh and tasty. I got the special of the month which had Alfredo, grilled chicken, mozzarella, and bacon. So delicious. I ordered an extra side of grilled chicken because it was so moist and juicy packing a lot of flavor. The big test for me was the paper underneath the pizza. My biggest issue last time was the amount of grease on the pizza. As you can see from my photo, this one almost had none! Amazing considering how tasty it was. The ambiance looked much nicer and cleaner than my previous visit. I will have to try dining in next time to see if it is the same experience. By the way, in regard to service, I was greeted the second I walked in the door. That was a step up from last time too. I will definitely be back again. Keep coming up with delicious new specials.

The pizzas were always good, so we figured why not go eat there and try some other items. There were 12 of us, so we made sure to make a reservation ahead of time. Upon arriving, we had no issues. A couple of tables were ready and waiting for us. First impressions: The restaurant is big. There's a ton of space and seating. The vibes are nice. This location also has a big parking lot, so parking was not an issue at all. Once we were all seated, our waitress offered us drinks and gave us time to look through the menu. I must say, there's some pretty affordable happy hour items on there. However, I was really hungry and opted for a regular menu Toasted Da Vinci sandwich with a side of chips. No drink. The sandwich was delicious. I really liked it. The bread was toasted to perfection and it was quite flavorful. The chips were also excellent. They were perfectly crisp and seasoned. Probably some of the best I've had. The meal was a good portion and very filling (and I'm a big guy!). Overall, I had a good experience. I'd come here again for that sandwich.

The bartending really has taken a step backwards though. Instead of only one cheap Rye, now they have none. How do you make a Manhattan? Sazerac? I ordered an Old Fashioned and it came shaken with macerated luxardo and then strained. The pic below is a correctly made Manhattan from a couple years ago. The bartender gave us some great service and knows her stuff but the bar program doesn't get the attention it deserves. My wife says that it's a family pizzaria not a gastropub and to chill out. She is usually right.
