Everything on the menu is absolutely delicious!!! The pizza dough is so light and tasty you don't feel heavy after eating more slices than normal. High quality ingredients which make for great reheated pizza leftovers, even cold the next day it's fantastic. Every pizza I have ever tried from them was a hit. I highly recommend trying the jalapeno hummus. Spice level depends on the peppers that day, but I would say mild to moderate as all my non-spice friends can still eat a fair amount of it. I like to dip my pizza crust in it! Cheese bread is a great way to start the meal and I was pleasantly surprised with their beer mix snacks as they make their own croutons. Salad is good, but not what I go there for. If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping by, you will have a new favorite pizza place! I definitely do! read more

The pizza place & the brewery Phantom Fox are the same place. Everyone inside is friendly and quick to acknowledge you, which is always a plus in my book. I had a pizza that was cauliflower based. Ive had pizzas with cauliflower based crusts before, which is why I ordered this one. Maybe this was just not what I wanted, but it had a very odd flavor to it that I didnt like. We all have different palates so maybe it was just me. Regarding the beer, I'll be the first yo admit Im a beer snob. If you fall into this category as well, you'll want to take a pass here. I tried a couple of their IPAs & they were just undrinkable. With Oro Brewing just down the street, I was disappointed... read more

The biggest problem is that the Goat & Ram side has super bright white lights overhanging and it destroys the vibe/atmosphere, as the Phantom side has nice warm lights. You can see the bright daylight "hospital" lights in Goat & Ram easily from many parts of the Phantom side and it's jarring. Need fix. See pic. Also, too often the pizzas are not topped enough and you end up with literally half the pizza being untopped crust. Yes, that saves money for the restaurant, but at these prices we need less stingy pizza toppings. read more

Pizza was so good. We had the pepperoni and sausage pizza. Had small slices of sausage which tasted much better than I thought. Also had their hummus. We normally have pizza at Mykes Pizza but I'll be having this pizza instead. They are relatively close to each other. I do prefer the hummus at Mykes because their pita bread is to die for and much larger. Only complaint was that the air blew so hard on me while eating my hair kept getting in my food. Even after I clipped it up. It was nice and cool in the place but uncomfortable with the hurricane force winds blowing on me. read more

Searched for a good pizza joint near our hotel in Mesa and this did not disappoint. Coming from CA the downtown area (small) had a nice vibe. They are paired with a decent brewery that has a nice selection, and the service was great. We ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza, and while the toppings were on point, the crust is awesome. Almost a fluffy/light buttery croissant flavor but still held up to the toppings. The sauce was also advertised as "Smoked tomato sauce", and that held true - the flavor imparted a smoky finish. Always fun to try a new twist on a pizza I haven't tried before! read more

This pizza is a masterpiece. The Best Ever. Everything on the menu is fresh, creative, clean simple ingredients, and house-made. We started with a snack mix. Well seasoned and a perfect accompaniment to the beers. Then had the slightly spiced hummus, super fresh veggies, the house made bread was light, fluffy, and crispy. We also tried the white pizza. The crust is pillowy soft, perfectly crispy, and holds up to the cheese. It also had roasted garlic, and a habanero honey that was a flawless combo of flavors. We will definitely be back. read more

From the Business

Specialties

At Goat and Ram, our fame comes from two things: our unforgettable crust and our inventive approach to pizza. The menu always includes the beloved classics – like cheese and pep & sausage – but for those craving something different, our specialty pizzas offer a fresh dose of creativity every 2 weeks.

History

Established in 2023.

The heart of Goat and Ram beats with the passion of its founders: Dan (the Goat) and his wife Morgan (the Ram). Their adventure began with a pivotal Christmas gift — an artisanal pizza book from Morgan. What started as a fun hobby quickly turned into an obsession. Leaning on his decade of experience in the culinary field, Dan spent 3 years and hundreds of iterations perfecting the crust he wanted people to experience. Once the dough was finally perfected, they bought a tiny 2 deck wood fired oven, borrowed a toy hauler from Uncle Junk, loaded it up with dough and went for it. After a couple years of doing pop-up events, the need for a traditional food truck was obvious. With more pizza came more demand and the space on the truck just wasn’t enough to keep up. In 2023 they opened a brick and mortar in a shared space concept with their friends at Phantom Fox Brewery in downtown Mesa. It’s the perfect match – pizza and beer.

Meet the Business Owner: Dan M.

I made a pizza that I would want to eat. I didn't try to emulate someone else's idea of pizza. I hope you like what we do.

I'm def a wine enthusiast & enjoyed many wineries while living in CA so I am excited to explore the AZ scene. Staff was helpful in choosing some wines and answering any questions on the wine. We were helped by the lovely Danielle & Sarah which were super personable our whole visit. We started with a board and a bottle The board was so yummy & perfect for 2 for sharing, the cheeses on this board went well together and I think my favorite item on the board were the pickles they were unlike any other pickles I've ever tasted before really tickled my tastebuds. I was able to sample the rose & the Pinot noir & ended up ordering a glass of that as well. It was the last night for live music & im glad we were able to experience it because it will not be back till September due to the weather! They have indoor & outdoor seating, we started inside & ended outside. I will def be back to try their other wines! Thanks for such a fun time.

We ordered at the counter, and the food was later brought to us. I got the Brioche Breakfast Sammy (scrambled egg, spicy ham, arugula, tomato, + herbed cheese on a house-made brioche bun). It was smaller than I expected, but the taste was great and the portion size turned out to be just right for me. My sandwich also came with a side of two fresh strawberries. I didn't know it would, so that was a surprise. I also ordered the pineapple matcha, which was refreshing and a great drink for summer. My friend got the Egg Sammy (scrambled egg and cheese) with Noble sourdough. It looked really good, and she gobbled it right up. Overall it was a good meal, and I would definitely be back. I want to try their breakfast wine next time.

I recently visited Goat & Ram after hearing about it on Facebook, and it did not disappoint! The standout for me was the pizza crust - it was incredibly artisan, reminiscent of a perfect French bread. I met up with a couple of friends, and we enjoyed the casual, laid-back atmosphere. One thing to note is that there isn't traditional table service; you order your drinks at one counter and your food at another. It's a bit unconventional, but it adds to the relaxed vibe of the place. While the appetizer selection could be larger, the hummus dip with cucumbers and carrots was a delightful starter. However, I do wish they offered non-cold dips for the pizzas, as all the sauces, including those on the pizzas, were served cold. Overall, Goat & Ram offers a unique and enjoyable pizza experience, especially if you're a fan of artisan crusts. A few tweaks to the menu would make it even better! read more

I must admit, I couldn't locate this place until I pulled the Yelp app and noticed that it was tucked away inside the Phantom Fox. After driving around aimlessly, I finally parked and decided to explore on foot. It was then that I found this hidden gem. The vibe was laid back, and the best part was it wasn't packed with people. I ordered the $16 cheese pizza, and let me tell you, it was an absolute delight when I savored it at home. The crust was perfectly fresh, and they were cheesy and satisfying. The staff were pretty chill and explained that their store sign hadn't been made yet, which explained the absence of any signage at the front. No worries though, as the experience more than made up for it. Highly recommend! read more

During our visit to Mesa, AZ, Goat & Ram restaurant proved to be an excellent choice. With a large group in tow, we sought a venue that could accommodate everyone, and Goat & Ram fit the bill perfectly. The ambiance was lively, exuding an energetic vibe that added to the dining experience. The food rivaled the quality of the beer, if not surpassing it. Our custom pizza, topped with pepperoni and sausage, was a highlight of the evening. Service was exceptional, with staff readily catering to our large group's needs and ensuring satisfaction with both food and drinks. For anyone passing through Mesa, Arizona, I wholeheartedly recommend stopping by this gem of a pizza place. read more

I was really disappointed with my experience at Goat and Ram. The person making the pizza looked very young and ended up burning it. After already waiting an extra 40+ minutes for a replacement, the second pizza was still pretty burnt. Between the long wait and the poor quality, it just wasn't worth it. I was hoping for a much better experience. read more

My wife and I just enjoyed their pizza at 2:30pm 7/26/25 today. As good as I have had in Arizona. I complemented the men as I departed. We will return but I will bring a designated driver so I can enjoy the tremendous beer selection. P.S. I am Italian. I worked pizza for years. Did I say this pizza was excellent! read more

My husband (from New Jersey) has said multiple times that Sal's…read morehas the only pizza in Phoenix that's good - he has high standards, but I agree with him that the best pizza is at Sal's. He usually gets a plain pie (pizza with cheese), which he says is great, and I have had several different kinds of pizza during our visits to Sal's and each one has been amazing - plus, they have garlic powder at each of the tables. The calamari and tiramisu are also fantastic!! The service is always great - our servers are consistently friendly and helpful. The place is super cute and homey and can accommodate both big and small parties. It's a good thing that Sal's is 20 minutes from us, or else we would probably be here at least 3 times a week, something that would do considerable damage to both of our waistlines.

Never order just a slice. Lately, every time I've ordered a single slice instead of a whole pizza,…read moreit's been dry and thrown together. Today I ordered a pepperoni and pineapple slice, and the toppings were literally just laid on top in the center. They didn't add any extra cheese to help it melt together or make it fresh. It's like they take an old slice, throw new toppings on it, and call it good. They didn't used to do this. They used to add cheese, heat it properly, and the slices were actually good. Unfortunately, the last four or five times I've ordered a slice, it's been disappointing every time. Literally the last two slices I've gotten I took one bite, and just threw it in the trash!

We ordered a Margherita pizza as well as a Basilico pizza along with a glass of Chardonnay wine, plus water for both. The Margherita was perfect, but the Basilico pizza was extremely salty. Maybe the pesto recipe needs to be reworked a bit, but it was still edible. It was curious that they had an antipasto section on the menu, but they don't actually serve pasta. That was interesting. Wine pour was a bit stingy considering it was $15 per glass of Chardonnay, and my wine eyeballs looked at maybe 6 ounces or less at that price. Okay! So, we people living in Northeast Mesa need unique places to visit other than fast food. Il Forno Bello Pizzeria is definitely worth a second look. I will go back.

Yes, it's covered with more than just umbrellas for the AZ Heat. I visited the other location in Scottsdale and have now been to this one twice. I typcially come for lunch and based on what I see for slices I'll make the call. My last trip I did the Lasagna style slice and a squared deep dish. I like how they asked if I wanted a corner or center.... ie crust or not. Service was great and the lunch combo i got included a chopped salad, slices and fountain drink. Yeap, NY style pizza as I remember and it was good. I have to admit I like my pizza fresh out the oven and not always reheated. Hence next time I'm gonna order the Gigantic pizza for some group gatherings at my house. Great lunch specials and yes, they have beer & wine to settle in correctly for dine in.

Boy did I find it…read more There are a few Vito's in the Phoenix area, and all had great reviews and photos that made my mouth water. Ultimately I chose the Mesa store because it was the original and I wanted to see Mesa. We started with a basic garlic cheese bread appetizer and it was great. The calamari was tempting but we'll save that for next time. Wife ordered fettuccine alfredo with shrimp and I ordered the usual Chicken Parmesan which came with a side of pasta. It was actually a harder choice than usual because I walked thru the restaurant before I ordered and so many dishes looked good, as did the pizza. But I went with the usual. Let's start with the wife, which truly speaks to the five stars because she frankly doesn't love Italian food. She eats it when I beg. And she loved it. She actually proactively mentioned she wanted to go back. That's like 7 stars right there it's so abnormal. I agree with her. The chicken parm was fantastic. Amazing. To top it off, our server was great and when I mentioned we were new to the area and it was our first trip she was so nice telling us the history of the original and the other stores, and the manager later stopped by to continue that conversation as the server told her we were new. I mentioned that I live closer to the Scottsdale store, and she said it's the same food and I'll like it just as much. I'll have a hard time deciding which shop to return to - it might be worth the drive to the original just for the ambiance, but I'll give the other a try soon because it was just that good! 5 stars. Or 7 if you ask my wife.

Hubby especially loved the artisan cheeses, so we went to get a couple of our favorites, the Port Wine Derby and Shropshire Blue. Mahfam greeted us and was super friendly as usual. Unfortunately they were out of both cheeses. She did have a small chunk of Shropshire Blue left though and gave it to us for free! Mahfam recommended a different cheese for us to try and it was excellent so we got half a pound. Hubby ended up loving her recommendation even more than the other two. Mahfam knows her cheese! They also offer gourmet charcuterie boards plus sandwiches and salads. This is just a very cool little place to discover new cheeses, and gourmet goodies and leave with something you didn't know you needed. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the cheese selection.

Every sandwich I've ever had here has been delicious, and can you ever go wrong with your own little cheese board?

The Taste of Tempe is going on right now and although we looked over the simple fixed price menu, decided to go with their lasagna and Caesar salad. Salad was fresh and really good and loved the addition of the fried capers for that salty bite. Their dressing is a bit different than others, not as goopy and thick as some Caesar dressings can be. There are also tasted bread crumbs in place of chunks of croutons. I truly loved it! Their lasagna is so good! Their sauce is a combo of beef and pork Bolognese so it's more on the creamy side with the tang of the tomato base and according to the menu, the cream comes from their cream sauce. Together, it creates a tasty addition to the layers of noodles and the serving size was perfect to share for two. Friend had the ravioli, which is served in a creamy mushroom sauce with a hint of the truffle and thyme. I had to try and bite and would definitely have this dish next time. Light and delicious. For dessert we were recommended the tiramisu and that was not disappointing in the least! Layers of lady fingers and whipped mascarpone was so good and not overly sweet. Both the wife and friend topped their meal off with a limoncello, which we learned was made in-house. Wife said it was strong but loved that lemon flavor. Overall a great first experience and we'll definitely be back! They are located next door to Freely Tap House and we learned they are owned by same owners. Really wonderful!
