Best Pizza Restaurants in Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix
"Is it the best pizza ever? Probably not. But is Organ Stop Pizza one of the most memorable dining experiences around? Absolutely. This decades-old Mesa institution leans heavily on spectacle, reminiscent of Denver’s Casa Bonita or Las Vegas’s Superfrico, where the show often eclipses the meal. Around in various forms since 1972, the restaurant claims the world’s largest Wurlitzer theater organ. The pizza might remind you of a kid’s arcade slice (slightly tacky crust and all), but after a beer or two, any flaws fade into the background. For anyone craving some greenery, there’s also an old-school self-serve salad bar. Meanwhile, the wall-to-wall live organ performance — complete with dancing puppets and hundreds of moving parts straight out of a Rube Goldberg dream — offers enough distraction that you won’t dwell on any underwhelming bites. All told, it’s a nostalgic, over-the-top, and irreverent experience that’s become a true Valley legend for those seeking a one-of-a-kind night out." - McConnell Quinn
