    Cheese slice and pepperoni grandma slice
    Adam B.

    Well it's official. After many years and many pizzas i have finally found the best slice shop in phoenix. This review is for a counter service slice spot. I live in north phoenix so this trip took a bit but found myself downtown today and finally!!! Soooo good. Please open up a spot in north phoenix!!!!! Cool little place. Great staff. Small place. Only 7 tables. Highly recommended!!!!!

    Caesar Salad

    I really wish that I had a different experience, but Via just did not do it for me :( My pizza was soggy. It did not pass the flop test. Not even close. Had to hold it up with two hands. And I ate it right away in my car, so it wasn't sitting. Idk if it was due to how they reheated the slices or if my slices had just been there for too long, but it was super underwhelming. That said, the white pizza was def my fave as far as flavor, and the sesame seeds were a great touch! The Caesar salad dressing was also really, really good! And the salad had lots of croutons. But for 15 bucks I wouldn't get it again. It was 90% lettuce. My other gripe was definitely the parking. There are a few free spaces in the front, but the lot in the back must be paid for and it only has 6- or 12- hour options. It was like $11 to park - basically the same price as 2 slices of pizza! I risked it all and did not pay which gave me anxiety lol. Not their fault at all but parking totally sucks. Pricing of the food is my final thought - for 2 slices and the salad it was almost $30 with tip. That's a lot for a meal just for me! I read that they're using really good quality ingredients and I am a big fan of that and willing to pay for it, but in this case, the flavor of everything just didn't add up to the cost.

    This place was across the street from our hotel and it was late but they were still open so we decided to grab a slice. It was one hour before closing so there wasn't a huge selection of slices in the display case. The grandma style with pepperoni seemed to be the freshest so we ordered two of those. The girl behind the counter was nice and quick to take our order. Our slices were delivered after a quick heat up in the oven and they were hot and tasty! Topped off with fresh hand torn basil and freshly grated Parmesan. Next time I'd like to order a whole pie to judge the pizza better when I know it's fresh from the oven... but for a reheated slice it was pretty good.

    10/10 casual pizza place if you want a quick grab. Each slice was about $5.50 and huge! My favorite was the vodka slice, as a vodka pasta lover, this HIT! The crust was nice and thin and crispy throughout the slice. Every slice that I got was so good but definitely recommend the vodka one. We had to wait a bit for the pepperoni slice since they were out at the time, but it was only a 10 min wait and we were in no rush so it was great. I highly recommend coming here for a quick bite with friends. I also heard their wings are really good, so I will be trying that next time, and getting that vodka slice.

    We were in the area for the Nutcracker, and used the parking lot directly behind this pizza spot. Honestly if we were here just for the pizza spot 30$ parking is a little much to eat a slice of pizza! Loved the spot it's located, as we walked in the girl was very sweet, she told me what the most popular pizza was. " the Phoenix " We ordered the wings, two slices of pepperoni, one slice of spicy sausage with pepperoni and then the Phoenix. Honestly we didn't like there there were no fountain drinks just bottle. But they had good options! They bright the pizza up our table and honestly looking at the pizza even though it just came "out " it looked like it had been sitting all day it just did not look like fresh pizzas. They all looked so similar that when they gave us the pizzas my husband couldn't tell between the spicy sausage and the Phoenix because they look pretty similar. They both had spicy honey on them. One just had a little bit more decoration and that's how I noticed which one was which, but when they set it down, he could have explained to us, which was which Pizza!. I feel like the menu could have had a description of what was on the pizzas. My husband did not know that the spicy sausage and pepperoni was going to have honey on it or else he would have ordered it without that so the ingredients of the pizza if they're adding something so different like that should be on the menu. We got two orders of wings equating like 18-20 they gave two ranch and washed to charge for an extra. Now with that many wings and two separate orders you would think that each basket would come with 2 sides each at least!! The vibe in there was cool but a little dim, the positioning of the TV was not accommodating to guests! The restroom was not very clean. But the music was good!! It was not the best or worst place!!

    What a great place to kickback, unwind and enjoy an outside and inside of you. The pizza is only five dollars per slice and it's absolutely delicious. They have a whole menu and assirtion of choices to choose from. My girlfriend and I grabbed a seat outside, and we had a server and didn't even know it. She was so kind dropped our food off after ordering and asked us if we need anything else. Water was self served, which was also pretty convenient. I cannot wait to come back again and bring my boyfriend. 10 out of 10.

    Such a cute little New York style pizza shop in downtown Phoenix. Great location near a few music venues and sports arenas for a quick bite before the game. Order at the counter and then they bring your food to you. Well made delicious pizza. There are so many more different types of pizza I want to try. I will going back.

    Amazing New York style pizza shop in Phoenix! My husband is in some Phoenix pizza groups and we decided to try this shop after hearing great things about it! This is the perfect spot to go when you're hungry. Service was quick and slices were fresh and ready to go. We ordered the spices sausage and the vodka pizza. Portion sizes were as expected for a slice of pizza. The crust was perfectly crunchy and thin. The flavor of the spicy sausage was our favorite! The space is clean and has an industrial vibe with exposed brick and neon signs. There's movies playing. Seems like a good place to go in game days as well. Street parking was available in front of the store when we went for early lunch on a Saturday.

    The Phoenix and Mild Wings

    The pizza is bomb, the wings are good too but I wish I would have asked for more sauce and they were also a little salty for me. I'm surprised with how many times I've been to The Van Buren and I had not noticed it. We went for lunch and parking was not bad at all, I parked behind the pizza shop and didn't have to pay for it. The service was quick and the employees were friendly. The place is small but chill. Will definitely go back to try the other slices.

    I was excited to scratch VDSS off my must try list. They had the closest thing to a real NY slice since I moved here from NY years ago. Excellent crisp, good food, the toppings were creative but not over the top. Tried a vodka pizza. A little pricy at almost $6/slice but worth it. A great lunch or late night meal downtown.

    This is a great place for quick lunch in the DT area. Slices make it really easy to try different combinations of pizza and order comes very quickly. Every slice (5-6) I've tried so far has been very delicious and there's lot of vegetarian options (arugula and pistachio I think might be their best combination). Service is pretty quick.

    The only pizza place you'll find me planning my whole Saturday afternoon around? Via Della Slice Shop. I'm a huge fan of a good New York slice, and this is a spot that does it right. You'll get a crisp crust that doesn't break when you fold and a perfect sauce-to-cheese ratio that doesn't leave your slice soggy. Plus, the creative flavors are impeccable. Highly recommend the Spicy Sausage -- the hot honey, chilis, and ricotta perfectly balanced the classic sausage pizza. The White surprised me as the runner up, with a richly caramelized onion jam and an aromatic sesame crust. The Phoenix (spicy salami with hot honey) and DiParma (prosciutto and ricotta) are also great. Via Della also has full pies and grandma style available, so it's perfect for all occasions! Don't miss out. Service is fantastic. The facility is clean with plenty of seating and drink options. Most parking is paid (alley is pricey), but I've usually had no problem finding meters in the area unless there's a concert or event.

    Great, new york style slice. We had the di parma, pepperoni, and vodka slice. Vodka was my favorite, but all of it was great. Crispy bottom, and good quality ingredients for sure. The pizza is heated to order, and it came out pretty quickly. The restaurant was clean and had a decent amount of seating, but parking is paid or hard to find.

    I had both Vegan slices here for lunch. Both slices were very good and the pizza dough itself was nice and crisp. I will be coming back!

    An absolutely NYish slice, three simple components, sauce, cheese, dough, all executed perfectly, I'm no longer homesick for NY Pizza.

    We really like the Desmond, especially for the pizza. If was pretty empty on a Sunday afternoon,…read morebut it can get packed on a Saturday night. It's a really cute little spot in downtown Phoenix with a full bar and a counter that looks put into the street with window that open in comfy weather. There are some great photo murals and a fantastic order room ceiling We ordered a Wasabi Caesar Salad and a pepperoni pizza to share. Neither of us really tasted the wasabi, but agreed if was a good Caesar. The pizza was sooooo good. They really pack on the pepperoni, and the crust is phenomenal. In fact, it's the reason I like the Desmond so much--that pizza crust! I was passing the guy making pizzas, and stopped to watch him tossing the crust. He was so nice and friendly and kind enough to tell me about pizza tossing. He made it look so easy and fun. What a fantastic young man! He made my visit to the Desmond even better! There is so much to like at The Desmond, and I'm sure we will keep coming back.

    I wouldn't go here if you're short on time. I went with a friend a couple of days ago and after…read morebeing seated, we had to wait a while for someone on staff to come over and take our food order. We each ordered a pizza but they took almost 45 minutes to arrive, my friend had a simple pepperoni while I had the truffle. The pizzas were ok but at $21 each they weren't worth the wait. When the bill was brought to our table I asked for it to be split by person since my friend an I were paying separately but the staff member split the bill in half so I ended up having to partially pay for my friend's drinks (they ordered something while we were waiting for the pizzas). It's not a big deal but the staff member was like "ok sure" and promptly ignored my request. There was also a 3% credit card surcharge so that was kind of annoying. I left a small tip but that was being generous. I wanted to go to the pub mextdoor but my friend convinced me that we should go here instead. I won't be making a return visit.
