We came here last night before my daughter's graduation and the service was so quick and easy! I was so worried about timing and they made it easy for us! The food was good! The chefs salad and ranch was delicious and the pizza was flavorful and big enough for big parties! Inside was small but clean and so much seating. read more

Wow what a great neighborhood pizza joint! Our server greeted us immediately and was super friendly all night. I would get the "I'm a Dip" sandwich again. That horseradish was eye watering and delicious with the sandwich. We loved their carnivore pizza and I loved the crisp pepperoni. It was a thin crust pizza, but not super thin and crunchy like I'm used to. We will definitely be back to this restaurant. It is a casual, family friendly restaurant with some bar patrons in the back. The owner told us there is live music on the weekends too! read more

Went here for a work lunch today. Place was cool, service was incredibly friendly, and it seemed like they had a nice bar area to chill at, but the food...eh, could have been better. We ordered mozzarella sticks and pizza crusts for appetizers. The mozzarella sticks were good, the pizza crusts were weird. They were thin strips of their pizza dough, baked. Thing was, their dough wasn't that good IMO. It was like eating a rectangular piece of a saltine cracker that was chewy. They were weird and nobody liked them. For my lunch, I went with their sausage sandwich. It looked good, but it was not. About 2 bites in, the sausage was luke warm. 3 bites in, and the sausage was actually cold in the middle. I peeled back the cheese and took the sausage out, and it looked grey and plain and like it wasn't cooked. I ate the bread and cheese and that was ok. Probably should have sent it back, but I was already pretty full so I just didn't eat it. My buddy got a supreme pizza, and gave me a slice. This was actually pretty decent. The pizza crust was lacking, but the toppings were great and it was tasty enough. I like the Mom and Pop vibe of the place, but sadly wouldn't ever return. read more

Fatso's Pizza - Sausage sandwich. Sausage was cold in the middle! Meh. - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

A coworker recommended Fatso's. We are from the Midwest and pizza is a touchy subject. We love thin crispy crust cut in squares. The pizza at fatso's checked all the boxes for us. The crust was crisp not hard to chew. The sauce was tasty not full of sugar. The toppings were also good, cheese wasn't greasy. The mots sticks were good, standard . My beer was perfect, not too cold. The server was very nice. I do t remember her name but a really nice lady. The bar had people sitting watch some game. They seamed to be having a good time. If we lived closer we would definitely watch a game at the bar. The whole vibe game Midwest bar which we enjoyed. We'll be back. read more

Hadn't tried this place before because my husband said it wasn't good, come to find out he hadn't been in like 20+ years so he had no idea haha. We ordered pickup and it was ready on 20 minutes! My husband said it was packed there and they had live music, but our order was ready on time! We got one thin crust cheese and one thick/pan crust cheese because we couldn't decide! It was a good idea because both were yummy! Wasn't like the best pizza ever but still really good for what it is, and I would definitely order from here again! read more

Great food, great service and a continuing selection of live music!! Arrive before 6 pm for the best seating to watch the musicians

We ordered a Deluxe...basically a loaded pizza with all the goodies. Amazing, finally an "Old School Pizza Parlor". The kind of pizza place our parents would take us to on a Friday night. The new joints have to much flair without a good pizza. Honestly, if you try this place once ....you will be back! AMAZING PIZZA! read more

The service was attentive and the food was tasty. The beer was delicious and we'll be back to try more of their offerings. read more

I tried Fatso's randomly when I found it on Yelp. The place was poppin! A lot of people at the bar, which may be the secret to their food. The food was not good. Everything fried had the same taste, and the pizza didnt taste like a pizza. I dont know how to describe it, but mayb a few beers would have helped! Inside was a little packed and narrow, and also pretty dark. They need to add a lil light inside! Staff seemed like they were upset to be at work, so Fatso's seemed very transactional. Which is okay, I just like to see poeple smile sometimes. Fatso's to me was a one-and-done kinda place. read more

Damn it took 30 minutes instead of about 15 to 20 minutes to get the pizza out it was not caramelized or cooked properly all the way around and we asked for a pie cut we got a square cut other than that not worth to $47 plus tip it needs to be more of a $25 Place tag nowadays read more

4/5 Stars for customer service and ambiance 1/5 for pizza and quality. Seemed very undercooked and had a rubbery texture like a microwaved Tostitos pizza. I think the toppings were ok (pepperoni and jalapeño) but the dough and sauce was too sweet and raw read more

food: delicious. service, top notch. ambiance: game on! all the stars!! (wings are the best)

This is a great family restaurant. The kind of place where everyone is welcome. We were lucky enough to come on an evening with live music. We split some wings, a cheese pizza and a cookie for dessert. Everything tasted as it should. Our server was very attentive always refilling our beverages. This is a no frills place that makes sure to serve good food and have good service. read more

This is a spot sure! Great beer list, wings and pizza nothing wrong with any of that. Old school bar with great service. Went in looking to try a new pizza and really enjoyed it. Owner came over and chatted us up, love that about a place. Pizza is tavern cut, if you Chicago tavern style purist it is not cornmeal crust, but still good. The Big Johnson was great, fresh garlic thumbs up! Try it and enjoy! read more

Fatso's Pizza - Live Music on the patio - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Thin crust pizza imo closest in the valley to Chicago style & flavor, which is the type we were seeking. Ordered a Caesar salad (it was lg enough for 3), large pepperoni & garlic that fed 3 ppl with a few pieces leftover. It was topped with plenty of good quality pepperoni. Ordered pizza well done & it was cooked to our liking. Our service was very good & the restaurant was busy. That's a hit, & we find almost unusual these days. Live music was very good. Our 1st visit & we'll definitely return. read more

A generous 1. Went up here to just try something new. We had very low expectations and they found a way to come in lower. That was the worst pizza ever, it was out of jar sauce, very cheap cheese, ghetto crust. It was like a child made me microwave frozen pizza. But the worst part of the place isn't even the food. It's the hideous bar flies that we're talking openly about strippers and prostitutes. Total dive bar, with food. Oof this place was pretty terrible. read more

This is a little neighborhood gem that was establishing 1993, I love their little story. Joe, the owner was so nice and came by to introduced his self, love that. Taylor was absolutely amazing, so smart, friendly with big beautiful eyes, I can't believe how she could keep track of not just our party that was quite large, her section was very big. We enjoyed our pizza although the crust could've been more crisp. A fun Neighborhood place where the people are friendly. I WOULD RECOMMEND. read more

Fun place and yummy food! Go there for a great time!Enjoy the vibes! A family place with the atmosphere to go with it!

Old-school, low-key bar/restaurant with a cozy, welcoming vibe. Very family friendly. The service here is always top-notch--Greg, the bartender, is always prompt, attentive, and makes sure you're well taken care of. The tap selection is solid, with a great mix of craft beers and familiar domestics, so there's something for everyone. The sandwiches are delicious, simple & fresh, and made just right. They also have ample TVs with the sports du jour if that's your thing. Sound is usually on for local games when it's important. read more

Best pizza in town hands down! If we lived closer we would be here once a week no questions asked!! Family owned which we love the vibe is soo old school in the best way possible. read more

Ask for Ethan, he gives the best recommendations and consistently does everything with a smile.

I have ordered pizzas and wings to go a few times from Fatso's. The pies are delicious with a perfect crispy crust and fresh toppings. The wings are good and meaty pieces. We have never eaten in but the food is always ready when they say it will be. read more

My husband likes this pizza but the dough to me seems overworked and like cardboard, especially for the price. Also I think they're short staffed (naming vs poor service) as everything just took a really long time. Friendly atmosphere tho. read more

Perfect neighborhood joint, reminds me of the pizza spot in my Midwest hometown. Staff is super. They have Black Butte Porter which is one of my favorites! I always order pizza extra crispy cuz otherwise sometimes the center is a little soggy. read more

On a recent Sunday evening my wife and I tried Fatso's. Several friends have been telling me how great it is, but we live in Tempe and it's quite a drive. We were not disappointed. We ordered Pepperoni, mushroom and green chilis on a thin crust by friend's recommendation. The pizza was wonderful! Plenty of rich tasty sauce, generous coverage of toppings and a liberal blanket of cheese, just the way I like it. We also ordered side salads that were nice too. Crispy fresh lettuce, some tomato and other things and cheese too! Service couldn't have been better. We ordered enough to take some home, but given the drive, maybe should have got another one to go. We're looking forward to a return trip. read more

I come here all the time, it's right next to where I used to live, so it was a nice treat at the end of evening walks. Their commitment to live music is very nice (there's always a live musician there whenever I'm around), and the food is great. I really recommend the medium buffalo wings! The wait staff typically have a kind demeanor, and they really do a great job of making you feel welcome. That said, my ears are a little sensitive, and the live music can be a bit loud. Definitely a great choice for lunch/dinner, but if you have sensory issues, I'd recommend bringing some ear protection. 9/10, recommend read more

We returned to Fatso's last evening. The food was great, service was should be expected. The music was playing on the patio. Thanks, Katie for reaching out and having us try your restaurant again. We shall return! read more

cutest little pizza spot with good atmosphere! food was a 10/10. definitely will be back!

Very cool spot. Good variety on menu, pizza is the specialty. They also make decent iced tea, which is a big deal in my book. Good local following, lots of live music. Will be back and do a more extensive review that time around. read more

I Love Love Love pizza!!! I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, every day of the week -- that's how much I love pizza. Did I say "I love pizza??" There are plenty of pizza joints in towns and cities, probably because some think it's an easy way to make a buck. Of course anyone can make some money churning out pizzas but Fatso's pizza is different. We were on a road trip through Phoenix and were hankering for a pizza, so after consulting Yelp as we always do, we chose Fatso's. Due to Covid, we phone-ordered a thin crust pizza to go. When we picked the pizza up, we took it back to our campsite where we savored each bite. The crust was thin and crispy as promised and the toppings were fresh and delicious. It was such a treat. This place is the real deal. There is a bar area and open-mike nights which makes it a hopping place when Covid restrictions go away. Thank you Fatso's read more

Tried this place on Sunday night. Not too busy but several games on TV had a dozen or so people at tables. I had the pizza deluxe and wings. Bothe were average with the pizza on the bottom side of that scale. What bothered me most was when you picked up a slice, there was liquid under the slice. The pizza had little flavor from the sauce, toppings or cheese. Way to noisy from the TV volume read more

Possibly the worst pizza and calzone I've ever had - so greasy and runny, cardboard crust, no flavor other than cheese. Got there an hour before closing at 8 pm and felt rushed to order. The restaurant was being cleaned by really young kids (like elementary and middle school age) all around us during our meal, and they were also delivering our food - so young there is no way they have a food handlers permit. Not to mention the two youngsters literally hanging out in the bar well with the older gentleman bartender when there were customers all around it drinking - pretty certain that is illegal. My partner and I both felt sick from how greasy the food was and within an hour of coming home I did indeed become ill. The whole restaurant smells like disinfectant trying to cover up old beer and grease. We almost turned around and left upon entering, and I wish we had. I hate to leave such a bad review for a small local business, but it is justified. Get your young children out from behind the bar - WTF? read more
