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!

I was not able to finish it all myself, I ate maybe half of the pizza and im a 125 lb 27 year old girl. Do with that what you will. It was really good, the "traditional" crust was THIN and the onions were soooo sweet (I guess I'm not a fan of the carmelization, just raw) but besides that it was good! It was so packed but the cashier saw a table just big enough to fit all of us leaving, and offered to send someone to bus it. They were incredibly short staffed, so she ran over after ringing up her last customer and cleared and wiped down the table for us. She was working a double and explaining that the other coworker called out, so she was kind of alone for the day. But she had an AMAZING attitude and was super friendly and helpful despite carrying a heavy load. Good lighting, they have to-go boxes in the condiment area, and it's a great place to bring someone if you want to share a salad/pizza! Good portion sizes!

I am very much into New York-style pizza, and Buono's Pizza is among the best places for it in…read moreArizona. What I like about their pizza is not only that it is delicious, but also that it is reasonable for the high quality and portion size. I also like that you can customize your pizza exactly the way you want it. The crust is nice and crispy, and everything tastes fresh. Their wings are also great, and they go well with the pizza, as pizza and wings are always a good combo. I also like the atmosphere of the place, as it makes you feel like you are in a New York-like setting, and they have an old-school gaming console that takes you back to the 80s. The staff is friendly. I remember saying the restaurant's name incorrectly, and I double-checked with a staff member, who corrected me on the correct way to say it. However, he was not upset about it. Instead, he was gracious with me about it and said that it happens a lot, which I greatly appreciated. I have visited here many times now and have had a great experience each time. Looking forward to future visits and recommend it to anyone looking for a great slice of New York-style pizza in the Gilbert area.

They were very friendly and even offered a few recommendations, which we appreciated. I went with the Italian stromboli, while my husband opted for the meatball, sausage, and pepperoni stromboli. Both looked fantastic, but we agreed that the meatball version had more flavor and was much heartier. The Italian stromboli was a little light on meat, making it feel a bit too bread-heavy for my taste. We also ordered the garlic cheese knots, and those were pretty darn good--soft, cheesy, and full of flavor. Overall, we had a great experience and enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere. Despite my stromboli not quite living up to expectations, we'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu.

We went to Crave last night to celebrate my daughter's birthday. When we were seated, I let our…read moreserver know it was a special occasion. She immediately told us the kitchen would be closing in 10 minutes (we arrived at 7:19 and they close at 8), which already made the experience feel a bit rushed. We ordered a deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza, a Caesar salad, fries, and water. The salad and fries came out quickly and were good, but we waited until 7:52 for the pizza. During that time, several staff members including what seemed to be a manager, were loudly yelling back and forth across the restaurant about staffing and schedules. With no music or TV volume, it was impossible not to hear, and it felt very unprofessional. Meanwhile, our water glasses sat empty. I had to ask three separate times for refills, and the third time I actually had to get up and find our server at the bar, where she was sitting, still discussing the schedule. When the pizza finally arrived, it was delicious. But basic things like Parmesan and pepper weren't offered. I had to flag someone down to ask. And even though we'd just received our food, the lights on the patio were turned off while we were eating, and we were brought a box very quickly, which felt like a not-so-subtle hint to leave. Overall, the food was good, but the customer service and atmosphere really took away from what should have been a nice birthday dinner for my daughter. Very disappointing experience.

New to the area and headed out to find great Italian food. And I found it. 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.

I don't know the server's name, but it was a guy with black hair and a little facial hair. You'd think since we were the first customers, the food would come out pretty quick, but it took almost 40 minutes. It doesn't take that long to make a 12-inch pizza and a chicken salad. When my pizza finally came out, it was barely hot. Then about 5 minutes later, the chicken salad came. Like, really? Took 40 minutes to make a small salad. I wouldn't have minded the wait as much if the service was good, but it wasn't. The server barely checked on us, and I had to signal him just to get refills. After we finished eating, we had to wait almost another 20 minutes for the check because our table was getting ignored and I had to signal him again The food is decent, but the service this time was terrible.

I have been getting Pizza at Crust for a long time but just getting around to posting about it…read more This is true NY style pizza, foldable and all. The real surprise is the incredible value of the Sunday Monday special where you can get a 20" New York Cheese Pizza for $15. You also still have the option to add on to that base per ingredient but still, an awesome deal. This Pizza is my go to weekend place for Pizza. Not only does it feed several people at the 20" size, but it is delicious. The sauce is a simple and delicious tomato base for the toppings. The crust is incredibly soft and flavorful on it's own. I usually pick it up to take home and have never had to wait longer than 2 minutes from the time I arrive to have it brought out to my car right in front of the restaurant. Super convenient. The restaurant is in the historic area of Downtown Chandler and looks like a great place to dine inside also.

Hey Hey Kids!…read more First time at Crust Simply Italian...and there's nothing Krusty here...no clowns either. Stepping inside I expected a more intimate atmosphere, but was met with hard floors, open space in a more industrial-style building. Not typically my go-to setting as places like this can be quite loud. It was louder than I like inside with some 80s rock playing and voices echoing around...but after a few minutes it didn't bother me anymore. Our server was great and gave us a rundown on their menu and specialties. We were drawn to try the whipped ricotta appetizer and glad we did...it was unlike any appetizer I've had before...basically a smooth and sweet spread for the bread that accompanied it. We each ordered a pasta dish for our main meal...I got a spicy sausage pasta and my wife ordered the Tortellini alla Panna. The pasta was perfect sized for dinner and I was able to get a few bites of the tortellini from my wife. Both dishes were excellent. I spied a few dishes from around the restaurant and everything looked good. The to-go section was bustling with activity the entire time and the place was full except a few seats at the bar. I definitely will return and try some different dishes or their pizza! Thanks Crust for the great evening!
