Bella Gusto Urban Pizzeria

Bella Gusto Urban Pizzeria gets a solid 4 star review from me. The service was phenomenal from the moment I walked in and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive 😊 I let the waitress know right away that it was my first time and she did a great job explaining things, including letting me know about the BOGO deal, which was awesome. Because of that I ended up taking a pizza home for later. I ordered a sweet green tea and a cheese pizza. Well technically two cheese pizzas 😆 Now for a couple of small things that kept this from being a 5 star experience. One thing I see everywhere and honestly do not understand is automatically bringing ice water to everyone. Not everyone wants water, and it feels wasteful. The glass just sits there untouched with ice and a straw, and then someone has to wash it for no reason 💧 It is a small thing, but it adds up in labor, time, and cost. As for the pizza, the flavor was absolutely on point 🍕 No salt or pepper needed at all, which says a lot. The only issue for me was the flop. It was a bit too floppy for my taste. If they could tighten that up just a little, this pizza would be unstoppable. Overall the food was good, the service was great, and the place definitely has strong potential. I would come back again 👍

OMG!!! My first time eating at Bella so I can only share on a few menu items. The Margherita and the Cacio pizza. WOW!! I order the Cacio e Pepe pasta, since our server, Brittany, (who is amazing) mentioned they make their own pasta. I’ve had Cacio in Rome a few times, so this was a tough call but it was the first thing that caught my eye. The flavor was delicious. Personally, I prefer a thinner pasta (more of a ‘traditional’ spaghetti noodle) theirs was more of a pappardelle. Regardless, it did not make me not eat it!!! The Cacio pizza was insane!! I was too curious not to order it! We sat in front of the pizza oven. We watched as John, a pizza artist and conductor, watching each pie with either a shift or holding the peel to achieve to make it beautiful, delicious and right. Adjusting the oven temp with olive wood (I asked), it was truly “dinner and a show”! Let’s not forget the wine…Brittany suggested the Montepulciano, and offered me a taste after she asked what I wanted in a wine. She nailed it! Both Brittany and John elevated my first experience. I even joined their loyalty club, which I didn’t know about until I had to look up how to spell the wine I enjoyed. :) No matter if you call it, “pizza” or a “pie” I call it Bellísimo!! Mangia!

Had a great experience here! It’s a wonderful place to hang out with a few friends since the noise level is just right—easy to converse without shouting. The food really shines; the pasta is incredibly fresh, and the pizza is seriously tasty. Definitely worth a visit!

We went to Bella Gusto on a Thursday night and got seated right away, which was nice and relaxing compared to the busy weekends. The vibe was cozy with good music, soft lighting and a romantic feel. We had calamari and two pizzas all delicious but the standout was the perfectly crisp and flavorful crust that made the whole meal amazing.

We come here regularly and love it!! I'm very fussy about my neopolitan pizza, and they do a fabulous neopolitan here. Also, my parents who are very strict restaurant critics literally said it's the best pizza they've ever had!! Highly recommend: calamari for the starter, calabrese pizza or their spaghetti meatballs (those are our favorite dishes). Sticky toffee pudding and gelato desserra are excellent quality. Finally - the service has been top notch every time. Parking is easy. Ambience inside is nice: spacious and music isn't too loud. We love it and highly recommend it to everyone who visits us in Phoenix!

A huge shout-out to John and his team for catering our holiday party at my home. Everyone raved about the food, and John was an absolute dream to work with. Everything was perfect from the planning to the presentation & best of all, I got to share my favorite local restaurant with friends and family. I also loved that their catering menu includes special items not available on the regular menu (the truffle mac and cheese was a hit!). John was incredibly helpful, providing clear details, great options, and quick quotes throughout the planning process. Bella Gusto is simply the best!

First time dining at Bella Gusto! Server was attentive and explained the style of pizza in detail. We ordered two bianca pizzas and one tuscana. Bianca pizzas were great, but the tuscana was completely soggy and wet. Dining experience was otherwise good.

Incredibly delicious food, friendly staff and great service. Had their Burrata for an appetizer. It came with wilted kale, apricot jam, house-made bread and balsamic glaze. The plate was delicious. I enjoyed all the different spices in the burrata along with the apricot jam. The mix of the two was incredible. The balsamic glaze added a little kick, which was delightful. It was a decent portion, so it’s a filling appetizer. For my entrée, I had their Shrimp Scampi. I loved the delicious white wine lemon sauce along with the shrimp. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and meaty. The tomatoes were on the sweet and sour side, which complemented the dish well. The dish was delicious over all and was also a decent portion. Very tangy. I also got to try their Gnocchi Gorgonzola. The creaminess on the sauce was unbelievable and flavorful. The gnocchi was perfectly cooked and had the perfect texture. The pancetta was delicious and its saltiness added lots of flavor to the dish. The arugula refreshed the palate from all the creamy goodness. To drink I had their Red Sangria. It was delicious, fruity and strong. It was so chilly and refreshing. I recommend. I also had the best server. She was very sweet, patient and attentive. She was very welcoming and made many recommendations. She knew the menu pretty well and was able to help me decide on what to get since it was my first time at their restaurant. Thank you for a great time and such delicious food. Will be back. Totally recommend.

I invited my wife's coworkers to help celebrate a milestone birthday, as she truly values and enjoys their company. It was a surprise party, and she was genuinely thrilled and touched! Everyone enjoyed the food and service, and it made my wife very happy to celebrate in such a pleasant setting. Some guests ordered pizza, others chose pasta, and three of us wine lovers shared a nice bottle that was also reasonably priced. The appetizers were a big hit--we even had to order a second round of the calamari! We were all too full for dessert, but the restaurant kindly brought out a gelato with a candle for my wife, complimentary. It was a thoughtful gesture that capped off a wonderful evening. They also provided me with a veteran's discount!

The food and service here is amazing!!! We shared the house bread, which was perfect, the bolognese with the pappardelle instead of gnocchi, and Santa Merda. It was worth the value and we left full and happy. It looked like a good spot for date night and groups because there was a lot of people eating there with us. Our pizza came out early before our pasta and salad so they offered to make us another. We just asked to get our current one reheated and they did which was perfect.

I was excited to try this pizza place, and it was a hidden gem! First off, our server Kayla was amazing. Drinks were filled quickly, food was out in a timely manner, and she knew the menu very well which helped us through the many options on the menu. We started with the Cesar, then shared two pizzas. The crust was light and fluffy. It was an amazing pizza! I will be returning to try their pastas!

Top notch pizza. The best pizza place in town/valley. Great staff and great drinks selection

For months, my friend has been mentioning this place near her house to try one night. The stars finally aligned for me to try this location this month, and I'm glad I did! Immediately upon entering we were greeted and noticed we came at an off time, so there was plenty of seating. The dining area would slowly fill up as we dined, but with how fairly spacious this place is, it still felt fairly intimate and private. My friend raved on and on about the Fried Eggplant ($13.25), so that was a must to start the meal! It was likely the best tasting eggplant I've ever had, and I can easily see just dining in to have this and being content. It is so crispy, delicious, and packed full of flavor! Also for a starter, we had the house bread ($8.25) which was also delicious and fresh out of the oven. Though the Fried Eggplant was a clear winner if you only wanted to get one appetizer to start. As for entrees, I was torn between pasta or pizza. Both I have heard are fantastic, so it made for a difficult decision. Ultimately, I decided to go with an old standby favorite of mine - Cacio e Pepe ($16.75). Overall, it had really good flavor but wasn't my favorite comparing to other locations I've had it. Though still a very good pasta! I just might try another pasta dish or a pizza when we return. Because yes, we will be back here! If you are in the area, even if just looking for a glass of wine and a small bite - this is your destination! Want something heavier, they have you covered! Be sure to check this great place out as I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Oh what a tasty Thursday night we had last week! My hubs and I popped in at around 6pm and were seated immediately. The place was a bit empty but based on a previous attempt to get a table last minute on a Sat, I suspect that weeknights just are not high traffic nights for Bella Gusto. The ambience was delightful. Good music and soft lighting- which I love, I do not like heavy bright lights boring a hole into my retina and giving me a headache. It also gives off a very chill and romantic vibe. Now onto the food! We had the Mary Margherita pizza, the Tuscana pizza and the calamari. All were splendid. The calamari was crispy and had a very light breading. The marinara clearly had a vinegary hot sauce in it, which was not my favorite (I prefer crushed red pepper) but it was still super tasty and definitely whetted my appetite ahead of the pizzas arriving. The pizza was exactly as described by the generous and helpful server. As uninitiated, she explained the brick oven style and how it would slightly burn bits of the crust on the outside but the inner dough would be soft and bendy (which many mistake for raw). I can see how it's a delicate balance. We enjoyed both pizzas thoroughly, but I'd have to say I like the flavor of the margherita the best. The Tuscana toppings definitely gave the marg a run for it's money tho.. so good. Whatever pizza you get tho, the CRUST is what shines. My God, so perfectly crisp, a bit butter, a bit garlicky but not overly so if you're sensitive to that kind of thing. We each had a glass of beer with dinner and were full and satisfied. It was a delightful dinner/date night. Thanks for dinner Bella Gusto, we will be back.

I was definitely looking forward to some fantastic pizza being a first time customer. I was highly disappointed when my pizza arrived. It was cold, like it had been sitting for an hour if not more before being delivered, Extremely soggy. Honestly, I'd give papa john 5 stars before this place.

The food is all delicious. I have not tried anything that I wouldn't eat again. My go to pizza is the prosciutto with fig jam. Even my husband always steals a slice of it. The gnocchi is also great. We like to go on Wednesdays to take advantage of their buy one pizza, get one for $10. Great way to try new flavors.

My most recent experience was amazing! Kayla, our server was extremely kind and helpful, especially offering to-go diet cokes. We started with a ceasar salad and had some of the best pizza I have tried in the valley, thanks to there wood-oven they cook the pizza in. I got the prosciutto and peaches, which was perfectly sweet and savory. The restaurant was clean and had nice decor. Previously I had tried the Zepoli's which were not the traditional Zepoli made of pizza crust which is the traditional style. With their pizza crust, I was expecting great Zepoli's but instead it tasted more like funnel cake. Overall, the restaurant is great, and the Zepoli issue is just not my personal favorite but others may enjoy it more than the traditional Zepoli.

Top notch pizza and salads and apps. Gem of a place, the quality and authenticity of the Italian food- so good. The burrata appetizer is not to be missed.

We decided to stop after shopping at the mall. Love the atmosphere. Our waitress was the sweetest. Here's how we rate our food. My son got the cheese pizza. I didn't think the crust was done enough. I had the Cacio e peppe, it was good but had a bit too much pepper. Weirdly, I thought it was better after eaten (like the aftertaste was amazing). My daughter had the gnocchi bologonese...it was divine! Our desserts were amazing, one of the best cheesecakes ever! Overall, we loved it. Service was fast for a Friday night. All a bit sleepy and full!

Just got takeout from here and the food is delicious! Ordered a couple of pies and a half salad. The Phoenix salad is delicious and a good portion for a half. The lettuce is crisp, toppings are good and the dressing complements it well. We ordered the Tuscana and Capriossca pie. Both are delicious! The dough tastes homemade and lightly crispy on the bottom. This honestly is one of the best Neapolitan style pizzas in the area! I was quite impressed. Would love to come and dine in next time.

Service was great.Your dough needs help. I'm a huge fan of Neapolitan style pizza. Super chewy over worked. Stretched a tad too thin. Even when asked to be cooked extra it doesn't help. The crust is awful. Pastas were ok at best.. The Marsala is way to salty and the Marsala loses its flavor with the massive amount of herbs tossed into this just not a good balance. Love my pasta al dente but not this al dente. Beer not very cold.Hands Down the worst cacia de pepe pizza I have ever had in my entire life Been here probably over a dozen times and this is probably my last. Was there for my birthday lol horrible. 8/7/2025

Bella Gusto has risen to become our fave local pizza spot since it's only 15 minutes away :) delicious neapolitan pizza with a soft and fluffy crust and flavorful toppings! We came with a reservation on a Friday night - def recommend because I saw a few parties waiting for a table. It was busy and service was slightly slow but we didn't mind. Ordered a 1/2 Phoenix salad and was able to sub the goat cheese for parmesan which we really appreciated! The salad had a great citrus-y contrast and I loves the candied walnuts. Dressing was light how we like it! The calamari was also decent - our least fave dish of the night but doesn't mean it was bad - just wish it was a bit crispier. As for pizzas we got the Flavortown (hello truffle oil!) and the Tuscana. Husband thought the truffle overwhelmed all the other toppings but I didn't mind lol. The Tuscana felt like a nice cleanse after. Both delicious and I can't wait to come back to try more items. Restaurant is casual/family-friendly and there's even a separate room if you want to reserve for a large party. My server was also really kind and sweet!

Bella Gusto is a vibey neighborhood spot with friendly service and reliably tasty food and drinks! Unfortunately, for those of us with celiac disease or gluten allergies/intolerances, this Italian restaurant does not offer much for you. No gluten-free pizza. No gluten-free pasta. No gluten-free bread. They do offer some pretty terrific gluten-free calamari... and there are also some salads that you could order without certain ingredients (e.g., croutons) to make them gluten-free, so that is something. I was lucky on my last visit, as their New Year's Eve special was Sirloin & Scallops over polenta. The dish was indeed special... quite spectacular! However, on my first visit, I was stuck eating an entire meal of just calamari. So next time I will be sure to call ahead and ask about the specials before heading over - I recommend you do the same. Overall rating: ****FOUR STARS**** Gluten-free rating: *ONE STAR*

We started with the burrata, which is absolutely one of my favorite items at an Italian restaurant. Unfortunately, what was served is NOT what I consider burrata and when I asked the waitress why it tasted like lemon, she informed me that they use lemon herb ricotta to make it (don't think ricotta counts as burrata). The lemon was enough to keep me from enjoying it. The house bread that we ordered, was not what is pictured on their menu on the website - it was slices of toast with oil drizzled on it. The Cesar salad was good. Two of the three pizzas were decent, but the Cacio e Pepe Pizza had that same lemon-flavored cheese base that was off-putting and was very greasy. The chicken marsala could have been good, however it was WAY too salty. Service was average, as the bartender was tending to our table in the dining area since it was early (5 p.m.). Ambiance is nothing exciting, seems a bit diner like and could use a bit of upkeep.

Love their pizza. They have great weekday specials and have the oven right front so you can see your pizza being created. Love the BOGO night.

Stopped by for dinner on a Sunday and snuck in right before they stopped serving food and boy were we thrilled! Bread was fantastic. My cacio was really good and my husband loved his gnocchi! We got the peppermint cheese cake to go which I'm really excited about we will definitely be back!

The food here was superb. My wife and I shared the Prosciutto E Riculo and Italian Salad. The Summer Sangria was also a great addition. Ambiance, service was also excellent. Not sure why we don't come here more frequently. Next time we will come on Wednesdays. We hear the BOGO $10 pizza is an amazing deal!

My husband and I went here with mid expectations and we were BLOWN AWAY!! INCREDIBLE PIZZA! We felt like we were eating authentic pizza right out of Rome. The crust. The sauce. The cheese. This is in my top 3 pizzas in AZ hands down. We already can't wait to go back and try more. We got the margherita and calabrese. I'm dying to go back to try the handmade pastas and some of the desserts. No complaints on the service. We really enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere inside. Cannot wait to go back!

F'n phenomenal. I'll be back. Calamari. Pasta pomodoro. Prosciutto e Rucola. Sicilian (to go). Margarita x 2. Service could improve, but I'll return for the food.

I can't believe that I have not reviewed this pizza place as it's close to our home. it is a relatively small restaurant that is fun to watch while they make the pizza . We've walked there several times to grab a bite to eat. Keep in mind that the pizza is on the smaller side, so you want your own pizza especially if you're hungry. The food and service has always been top-notch.

Amazing food and great service! Can accommodate large party with a private room or a cozy table for two. All their dishes were delicious.

Good at Bella Gusto, specifically their wood fired pizzas, are terrific! Take heed that on Wednesdays you'll get the most bang for your buck with pizzas. They have a buy one pizza, get another pizza for $10. That's when hubby and I love to go and just dig in to the amazing pizzas. Service is always great and the ambiance is nice. Feels cozy and comfy.

Bella Gusto Urban Pizzeria is a solid choice when you're craving pizza in Chandler and want vegan options. They offer a vegan cheese substitute ("VG Vegan Cheese option") on many of their pizzas. The atmosphere is warm and food feels crafted, wood-fired oven, fresh ingredients, nice crust. If you ask, they'll swap out cheese for the vegan version and build a tasty pie with mushrooms, vegetables, or other toppings. Overall, quality is good, service is attentive, and the vegan option makes it inclusive for plant-based eaters.

Bella Gusto has been on my radar for a while. Its recognition for its wood fired pizza cannot be ignored. I ordered the Santa Merda pizza. Interestingly enough, it tasted better than it looked. The pizza looked undercooked and had a doughy bottom. It has very little crisp and needed to be folded to be eaten. The flavour was excellent. No regrets. I'm glad I tried.

This was our second time here. It's a hidden gem. We don't live far from here so we strolled over for dinner. Pizza only takes a few minutes so the waitress waited while we enjoyed our salad before putting in our order. We also enjoyed watching them make the pizzas as the oven was within view. The mozzarella is made fresh at the location. The setting is cozy and was perfect for our date.

I can only rate them from their reviews and web page. I would love to go try thier menu but they open at 4 pm and I live in Avondale. I am once in a while in their area but it is during the day, noon and thereafter. Times which they are not open. To go there during their regular hours would be a 75+ mile round trip......so, I would recommend them from reviews and web site, but an actual review of the food, service, venue and the like will have to wait. Sure seems like a great place. Not sure this qualifies as a Review, more of a frustrated comment I guess.

Great local pizza spot. Favorite is the flavortown. Overall really solid Italian wood fired pizza!

Homemade vegan cheese that melts!!! Great meat and topping quality with one of the best flavors on a pizza. For apps recommend the salad and bread.

We've been here twice in the past year and both times have been a great experience. First time we tried the handmade pasta, delicious! The second time we tried both a red and white pizza. Unbelievable pizza. It's now our favorite Neapolitan pizza place in the area. The closest to the pizza we had in Naples. They even import their flour from what the waiter told us. Service was great, and the inside is casual and cosy. The center piece is the pizza oven and it's awesome!

My boyfriend and I were on our way to a music festival and I was craving pizza.... But I am extremely picky about the dough. So I looked on Yelp for a great pizza place in the Tempe/Chandler area that was not "fast food"/order in line and that was known for having great flavor and texture for their dough. Bella Gusto popped up, so we decided to try it. We were there by 5:00 on a Saturday and we beat the rush. The server was extremely nice and friendly, the food was prompt, and the ambiance was great. The first I noticed was that the tables were not crammed too tightly next to each other, which was ideal. As for the food... Each of us ordered a pie - my boyfriend got the Margherita, and I ordered the Prosciutto E Ruccola. Bot were EXCELLENT, though I have to say that my prosciutto pizza was better than the margherita. However, all ingredients were fresh, and they did not skimp on the toppings! (See photo.). The dough is wood fired and delicious! Speaking of not skimping, I ordered a small salad and chose the Italian Chop Salad, and it was absolutely loaded with salame, cubed pepperoni, and shredded cheese. And the dressing was amazing! Two final things to mention are the fact that the restaurant is located in a plaza, so there is plenty of parking. And the prices are definitely reasonable. We will absolutely return!

Food was bland expensive and service was disinterested Even though I can walk there we haven't been back

Found out about this place while watching a show on PBS called Check Please Arizona. It's located in a shopping strip mall but don't let you stop you. As you walk in, it's very open and the first thing you notice is there wood fire oven and all the wood stacked up. There was a bar toward the back and lots of tables. We were quickly sat. The menu was what I expected. We started with the Phoenix salad and my husband had the Caesar salad. Both salads were good and the Caesar was the best I've had in a long time. We got the Tuscana. The pizza was delicious and filling. We will definitely be coming back to try their other pizzas

Good pizza, great calamari. Decent service, ambiance is mediocre. But you're going there for that baby powder dough of the Neapolitan pizza and it's hits the mark. Chewy, doughy and airy, and good size. Definitely will go back.

This is one of the best, if not the best, Neopolitan pizzas I have had. I highly recommend them. If I find myself in Chandler, I will be back. Our server was very friendly, and we enjoyed our conversation with her.

Seated immediately upon arrival with my son. Had the spaghetti and meatballs as I usually do. Spaghetti is thicker like fettuccine but made in house and is sooo fresh. Meatballs are insane, some of the best I've had. I love the fresh cheese they grate on top and the portion is pretty large. I usually order the side of rustica bread to scoop up the remaining sauce but passed this time around. My son ordered the kids cheese pizza, all fresh ingredients, he finished the whole pie himself. Love this place! I literally crave those meatballs at least once a week, absolutely worth a try. Very small menu so they perfect their dishes, I would highly recommend!!!

Three of us came here for dinner for the first time last night (Thursday). We arrived at 6pm and it wasn't very busy, but got progressively more busy in the hour and a half we were there. This seemed like a spot many locals/repeat customers go to. A few things I like is the menu, there's a lot to choose from, and I like they have products that you can buy and take home (written on the chalk board by the entrance) in case you want to make a dinner at home with their ingredients. But we all liked the food we got, we ordered the fried eggplant as an appetizer and it was great. I ordered a margherita pizza, and I liked the sauce and cheese, but thought the crust was just okay. I also got a drink, but thought the cocktails were a little pricey for just tasting average. Overall I would come back and try this place out again.

How did I not know about this place years ago?!? Their pizza is sooooo good!! I ordered the G.O.A.T and it tasted phenomenal. The crust was everything and the toppings were just enough. I also ordered the Raspberry Mojito, which was two thumbs down and don't recommend. It tasted like cherry cough syrup. I didn't complain because I'm not a complainer in restaurants. The inside was very clean, our server was very friendly and attentive. I'd definitely go back as this was by far the best pizza I've ever had in AZ. Reminded me of my trip to Amsterdam and their pizza.

First time here and we all loved our meals!!! Drinks were delicious! I got an espresso martini and Moscow Mule! Both hit the spot! They also have limoncello flights! I'm not a huge fan of limoncello but a great option for those that do! I got the shrimp scampi and it was amazing! Perfect lemony flavor!! My husband got the Gnocchi bolognese and devoured it! My dad had a pizza and he said it's the best pizza he's ever had. He's been to Italy over a dozen times, so that's saying something!! My stepmom had the gnocchi Gorgonzola and LOVED it! Every meal was perfect! I just wish the bread was complimentary!! We will be back!!

I had this place bookmarked for a while now in search of a good Neopolitan style pizza reminiscent of the true taste of Italy. After I watched an episode on 'Check, please! Arizona' on this place, I had to finally try it; especially after a patron on the show mentioned the pizza reminded her of the pizza she had in Italy. We arrived early on a Saturday and waited until they opened because I couldn't make reservations for only two people on-line. Only four people or more was offered on their site. Obviously we were their first diners. The hostess sat us and gave us our menus and told us who our server would be. I knew I wanted to try their pizzas; so we agreed on one Tuscana with sausage and mushrooms and the other Il Finocchio with lemon ricotta, fennel, arugula, goat cheese, and garlic. We also ordered a large bottle of San Pellegrino. After our pizzas were brought out, I noticed a good third of my pizza had no mozzarella. Very small dollops of mozzarella were scattered here and there on my pizza. I was very disappointed. For me, a good pizza must have the three most important ingredients and I must taste each with each bite and those are, a great tasting tomato sauce, quality cheese, and a good crust. The tomato sauce wasn't reminiscent of DOP San Marzano tomatoes which are remarkably sweet. This wasn't a deal killer however. The cheese was basically non existent. The crust had great chew and flavorful of a good woodfired pizza. That I did enjoy. But the lack of ingredients (cheese) ruined my experience. My wife did enjoy her pizza. She almost finished the whole thing, but brought one piece home. Will I return? Probably not! Oh, and after my wife entered the bathroom; our server walked out of the stall and out of the bathroom without washing her hands! Not cool! So my search for a true Neopolitan style pizza continues!

The pizza is delicious! I live the brick oven taste and the lightness of the pizza. The salad and calamari were great too! Can't wait to come back with my husband.

A hidden gem. Love their white pizza. Everything there is great. Watching them fire the pies is a nice plus too.

Came here for dinner and had a really nice meal overall. The restaurant is a little outdated and not very modern which is not a problem but I wouldn't call it a fancy restaurant by any means. The homemade bread appetizer was insanely good! Charred really nicely on the outside and the rosemary and salt level was perfect. Ordered the calamari as well which was cooked really nicely. I would have hoped for it to be a little more crispy but the cook on the calamari made up for it. We ordered a couple of pizzas including the Calabrese and the prosciutto and arugula pizza. The prosciutto pizza was my favorite. The calabrese was good but had a little too much sauce. It was a little on the pricey side and I wish their happy hour was more appealing but I can definitely see myself coming back here for another meal!

Tried this last night , and will not be back. Staff were super friendly, and great. We started with the house bread and meatballs. The house bread was good, but the meatballs lacked in flavor. There were 4 of us. Hubby had the spaghetti and meatballs, 2 of us had the Chicken Marsala and the other had the margarita pizza. The noodles were great, but that's where the positives stop. The spaghetti and meatballs were okay at best. The meatballs lacked in flavor as well as the sauce. The Chicken Marsala lacked in favor except for being extremely salty. As for the pizza, I was glad I decided against it because it was super soggy.

Best Neapolitan pizza I've found in Chandler area and great homemade pasta and desserts. Also run a generous reward program and offer Facebook coupons. Check them out.

My four stars is a solid four. I have to say that I was very impressed with the pizza here and will definitely be returning. My family and I came in on a Sunday evening, and it was packed. We all came away pleased with the entire meal. A few years ago, my wife and I considered going here but got takeout from another restaurant. I don't know why we never returned, but I'm definitely happy that we eventually did. Together, we ordered two pizzas, two salads, and the meatballs. The Santa Merda! is a white pizza with sweet and spicy bites. The hot honey was a nice touch and countered the Calabrian chilies. The other pizza we ordered was the Capricciosa, which is probably more for people who like mushrooms, olives, and artichokes. I enjoy those things, but my wife is not the biggest fan. One of the standouts of the entire meal was the crust. When a restaurant has a nice wood-fired pizza oven like at Bella Gusto, you know they are serious about pizza making. The staff were excellent and very friendly. Overall, I thought the restaurant was clean and well-spaced. At no point did you feel too close to the table next to you, and the quality service was much appreciated.

Oh how nice it is to come home!! I hadn't been here in awhile due to COVID and the death of my dad, so it felt good to come back! They don't do The Meaty pizza anymore but they do it for me, which I love! The Meaty Pizza is the El Jefe on steroids! I have 3 words to describe it: Won-der-ful!!! I just return d from Naples, Italy and I must say, it's the closest thing I've had since my return!!

First visit today thanks to Check Please. Based on reviews we figured if we had a chance at a table without a wait, get there at opening. So, we left our QC home @3:15. Arrived at 4pm and half the tables were already occupied...anyway, on to the experience. So we started with the meatball appetizer, and small cesar salad. Veal meatballs were moist and flavorful, tomato sauce was very good. Cesar salad was disappointing mostly due to a flavorless dressing which was very light. Could have asked for more but didn't. Our pizza choice was the Flavortown. Let me tell you, as a self proclaimed chili head the spicy soppressata has a serious kick! Later we found out you can sub 'normal' pepperoni...just an fyi. Service was decent but our server was frequently behind the bar making drinks etc. Should a Sat. lunch cost $45 without alcohol, maybe, maybe not...you decide.
