Federal Pizza

I love Federal Pizza!!! We always order the Flaming Lips pizza and it never disappoints. Delicious starters like the garlic bread and mozzarella sticks. The lamb pasta is amazing. You really can’t go wrong with anything on their menu. Service is always great and attentive. And I love the ambiance of the restaurant. Restaurant has parking available, wheelchair accessibility, and restrooms as well.

Such a great spot! The pizza was delicious and the servers were super friendly, which made the whole experience even better. It just felt really comfortable and welcoming definitely a place I’d come back to when I’m craving good pizza.

hands down the best pizza ive had I loved the flamin lips pizza! perfect on all fronts sauce cheese and meat were quality and clean. kitchen staff keep a phenomenal job at cleanliness the staff were friendly attentive and intuitive! also got the fried cheese appetizer thing and it was great not my favorite thing but quality ingredients and the bombing donut deserts were great not as great as the pizza but its great and all was super cheap!! stuffed two big boys with drinks a whole pizza an appetizer and dessert with leftovers!! very very pleased will return

I was craving a different kind of pizza than my usual spots and Federal Pizza really hit the spot for me! I split the pepperoni pizza with my husband. I usually only eat two slices when having pizza but it was so good I ate all four of my slices! I highly recommend this Federal Pizza! It tasted so clean and fresh! I look forward to trying more menu items.

Federal Pizza is one of the best late-night pizza spots in Phoenix, serving up delicious wood-fired pies with a perfectly crispy, chewy crust. Their creative topping combinations, like the popular Big Star supreme, make each slice bold and satisfying. Housed in a restored 1950s bank, the space has a cool mid-century modern vibe that adds to the experience. Open late, especially on weekends, it's a great place to grab a bite after a night out. With friendly service, tasty craft drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere, it’s a go-to for pizza lovers after dark.

So we were hesitant to try this restaurant because my husband is a Chicago Pizza fanatic. We live about 2 miles down the road and I made him come into this restaurant! We are so glad that we did! The atmosphere, excellent service, hospitality , cocktail, wine, beer selection & food…. Awesome!!! We had wings 9/10, the meatball pizza 🍕 so yummy! We will returning over & over!! They do have an amazing happy hour that goes every day until 5 PM! Ps: Austin was our server and he was amazing! Lauren was the one that greeted us and she has fantastic personality.

Pizza was really good, but the service wasn’t the best. Our table ended up getting forgotten and we had to go up to the front to ask for the check. The food was amazing though!

Our first stop here in phoenix . Our air bnb owner recommended this spot and it did not disappoint!! Got a table right away - and the server was awesome 👏 . We ordered two half flavors of a pizza . The crust was thin and the flavor was on point ! Also for a Caesar salad 🥗 it was really nice . We really enjoyed spot - might come back before we leave !

Special salad. The Super: pizza. The wine Pinot. 3O$ for a full pizza and a bottle of wine. Taylor, managing, I could see all over the building. Kicking ass. So very friendly and welcoming. Our server Autumn did not disappoint. Very present and gave great advice. She was honest. (Great outfit). Which leads me to how authentic the people working are able to be themselves. Thank you for a wonderful evening. C.

Really enjoyed my dinner at Federal Pizza! The Detroit Style supreme pizza (forgot what the exact name was) was exactly the way Detroit style pizza should be. Thick crust, heavy sauce, lots of cheese, and tons of meats on it. Added Jalepenos to it for an extra kick as well. The pizza came out in about 20 minutes after putting in the order. Service was relatively prompt but we did wait about 5 minutes after being seated to be greeted and drink orders taken. Apparently its an open service model so many servers can take a table, but besides a different food runner the same server took all orders and ran the credit card. I'm subtracting a single star (wish I could leave a 4.5 star instead) since there were flies buzzing around and some of the tables were sticky. They had some large parties coming in and out so I don't hold it against them. It left a college sticky bar atmosphere since it wasn't the cleanest all around. There was plenty of outdoor seating with misters but it was 106 outside so it wouldn't have made a difference. Overall will be back and its added to the local restaurant rotation. Will definitely be a place to visit when the Detroit Style pizza cravings hit!

Great pizzas, amazing pizza and a bottle of wine for $30 offer on Mondays and Tuesdays! Cozy ambiance with a drive through for pizza's who would have thought. Must try this super fast service pizza spot

We were wanting some good pizza to go and finally decided to give Federal Pizza a try. I LOVE they have a drive thru. We called in our order and employees were super friendly. We got a mushroom pizza and it was ready on time. Let me tell you, this was the best pizza we've had in a long time. The crust was perfect, the sauce was great, perfect amount of cheese and mushrooms were quality. Everything was quality flavor and we loved it. Definitely would be a regular if it was closer to home. Cannot wait to grab another pizza and try more of their items!

One of the best pizzas I've had!!! The service was great, our server was very friendly and was on top of refilling our drinks and getting our food out to us herself. It's a small pizza restaurant, with outdoor seating! Definitely worth the wait!

Good food, great service, good drinks just wish they still had the blood orange cooler and cocktails were on happy hour specials

A friend recommended this place so figured why not give a try. Had a reservation at 8pm but they were able to seat us around 7:30 which was very nice. Pretty casual ambiance and decor but the staff were very sweet and attentive. Started out with the loaded brussels which were so delicious, considering they are brussel sprouts. Would 100% get them again, we keep eating them throughout our dinner. Love how they are able to mix and match their pizzas, which allowed us to try a bit of everything. We did 1/2 big star,1/2 pepperoni with hot honey for the first pizza and then 1/2 casanova, 1/2 flamin lips for the other one. The Big Star was my personal favorite, the flavor combinations, smokeyness, the spices, and overall presentation was amazing. Will most definitely order that one again! The pepperoni with hot honey was a perfect balance of sweet and savory, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Wasn't a big fan of the casanova but the flamin lips was great, especially if you love a nice kick! Will most definitely be back to try more of their menu.

$30 for a pizza and a bottle of wine! How could you go wrong? This was the first time trying this place and it did not disappoint. We ordered the flaming lips pizza and it was delicious. Wine was also great and ended it with the Nutella tiramisu wow!! Everything was so delicious. Service was great. Ambiance was relaxed, good for dates or hanging with friends. 10/10 recommend

Great place! I made reservations for 10 people and they were thankfully able to accommodate! Service was great and all of our food came out pretty quickly despite having a pretty large order. We were off on a little corner so didn't really get a lot of the ambiance but overall it was great.

I liked their pizzas but we are waiting for the one in our neighborhood to open. Any day now! I've heard good things about the one in Phoenix

I'm from Detroit so when I see a Detroit style pizza on the menu in Arizona I'm always suspicious. They got the crust and the flavor of the sauce right! Those are truly the most challenging to duplicate and they were spot on! The toppings were fresh and delicious. Chasing it with a super cold beer was the cherry on top! Enjoy!

Enjoyed the pizza here and the beer selection. Loved the Wren House guava beer, and the sweet potato pizza the best! Service was nice. We were able to find parking and a table as a walk-in on a Sunday.

This place was amazing! We walked in on a Saturday night with 5 of us and were seated right away. The server was super helpful in telling us all about the specials and popular pizzas. We had never been and wanted to try several pizzas so we got three but did half one kind and half another on each so got to try out several of the pizzas both red and white sauce. They were all AMAZING. Prices were very reasonable as well! Will definitely be back

My go to pizza place when I'm back from college! Pizza is always fresh and the vibes are great!

The food was great! Staff was all smiles and had great attitude! Our little family had a nice Friday night dinner.

This is my favorite Resturant! I love their daily lunch special. We were in today celebrating a special occasion and the service was amazing. I called to set up a reservation and they made everything so quick and easy. When we got to the Resturant and it was time to order they were so understanding and willing to accommodate for my father's diet due to medical reasons. He was able to enjoy his meal without any issues and was so happy to finally have a good meal without any issues with our family. Federal Pizza, you guys are amazing and we thank you for your hospitality and amazing food.

Nice place. Another restaurant I've been trying to get to and finally made it. Adam was great and helpful in navigating me through the menu. Wine and beer selection were amazing. Soooo much to choose from. When trying a new pizzeria i always try the meatball appetizer and a margarita pizza. Adam knew what i was looking for and let me know the margarita wasn't traditional. Not a red base. So i went with the pepperoni. Those meatballs were probably some of the best i have tried in the valley. Beef, veal and pork. Juicy, flavorful and the polenta that comes with it, oh boy!!! I could eat a plate of that polenta by itself. The pizza was a bit different than what i'm used to but good. Light and airy crust. I would get it a bit more well done next time. A touch more salt in the dough making process definitely would help but still good. I can't wait for the paradise valley location to open up so i can try more things!

What I love most about Federal pizza is how consistent they are. Food and service are literally always top notch! For sure one of my favorite spots for pizza in Phoenix .

My favorite pizza place hands down! Every time I try somewhere else I compare it to Federal Pizza and it just doesn't compare. My go to pizza is always the Casanova. If you order this get it for dine in only not take out . Doesn't taste the same. My gf likes the Pineapple Express and it has gotten spicier. The manifesto is ok the Casanova is where it's at. They have a great lunch special half a pizza and half salad. My favorite salad are the Caprese, chop, and Caesar. Plenty of food for 13.50. There is also a late happy hour special pizza and a bottle of wine for $30. This place gets packed so there can be a big wait. But it's well worth it!! It gets cold in there so bring a sweater lol

My coworkers and I came during lunch time and it was very nice! They are pretty busy during lunch time, but we didn't wait that long. I enjoyed the salad especially because the croutons tasted homemade. The pizza was also really good, our waiter offered to grate fresh cheese on top of it and I think that made it better! The waiter serving us was super friendly, and attentive. I would def come back for lunch!

Love this spot!!! All their pizza is so good, and they have a great lunch deal where you can get half a pizza and half a salad for $12 which is a steal!! I've been here a few times already, and my favorite pizzas are probably the Casanova with the arugula and prosciutto and the Detroit style pizza with hot honey. Their salads are also great as well. We always have great service here. Vibes are great. Have never really had to wait for a table, but it's never too empty. They have a bar inside and outdoor seating as well. Parking can be tricky at busy times since there's a lot of great restaurants in this area. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Placed an order for pick-up while we were in the area. Great gluten-free pizza here! SiSi helped us, and she was awesome. Not just because we had service with a smile, but because she took the time to answer questions about ingredients, and even talked to the staff in back to get answers. If you are gluten-free because of celiac disease or an allergy, let them know. They will bake it in a separate oven and make sure to use a clean pizza cutter. If you just order gluten-free without specifying allergy, it will be baked with all the other pizzas. Also, they cannot guarantee cross contamination. Not many places do. Since April, they have officially had a full bar! Specialty cocktails, local craft beers including 4 Pigs, and Greenwood. A nice wine list, also offering some local brands, italian etc.. They rotate both! It is warmer than most places on a hot day in the early afternoon. Not too bad. Love that they have a drive-thru, though I haven't taken advantage of it yet. They have always been busy, yet still attentive, super friendly, and fast every visit. Our gluten-free cheese pizzas were great. They have the loose flour at the bottom of the pizza which makes it taste like a traditional pizza. I was assured it was just rice flour. The crust is so yummy, that it makes Federal one of our favorite local pizza places. Definitely tastes best fresh! Yummy food, great service every time makes Federal's a go-to place we can't pass when in the area.

Friends, stopped in on a lazy Sunday afternoon for lunch!! No wait, super great service, and food was hot and tasty. Wings are amazing, tenders crisp and juicy!!! Ohhh, also....the adult beverages are refreshing and cold!!!! Ambiance is buzzy and upbeat. Highly recommend. Our server Tyler was very nice and on top of his game, very attentive. Grade: A+

Great pizza in Phoenix that is open till 11pm. I've eaten a whole pizza in a sitting, but get a couple and share with company.

Our family loves Federal! We'll find any excuse to meet up here. The team members are very individualistic and LGBTQ+ friendly. My fiancée loves the Flaming Lips pizza, with Gorgonzola and mixed Italian meats. Even though I don't eat meat, the wings are absolutely delicious! I don't love that the servers assume you want a pitcher of beer instead of a pint. I'm a slow drinker and my beer gets warm in the AZ heat! Keep up the great vibes!

We still love coming here every time we visit Phoenix! This time we got a pan pizza, the Straight Up, just cheese. It was SO GOOD!! This restaurant has never done me wrong!!

Federal is the last of the Postino family restaurants I had yet to try, and it definitely lived up to the great food and service of all the other locations. It was a busy Friday night, but we were able to get seats and the bar right away and had the most wonderful bartender serve us. He gave wonderful wine recommendations and was very accommodating to my indecisiveness by letting me sample 2 of the reds before making up my mind. The bolognese pasta was so delicious and was the perfect amount, no left overs here! They were also able to do a 1/2 and 1/2 pizza which was great so that we were able to try out 2 different pizzas and now know that the prosciutto pizza with arugula is the winner. A great vibe for happy hour or date night!

Dan was our waiter and he was incredible. He was thoughtful, attentive, and friendly. The hot honey is awesome, the romesco was great, the pizza was awesome, and the ambiance was awesome. Personally, it's been a while since I've had such a pleasant pizza dining experience so I'm extraordinarily appreciative of this pizza place. Great prices on the beer and the pizza. Seriously, well done!

Good pizza but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. We were limited on time so elected to try the pepperoni pizzas. One gluten free just to try it. Regular crust was much better as one would expect. I've had much better gluten free pizzas and wouldn't recommend coming here for it. Service was good, restaurant had a clean upbeat franchise vibe.

Ah Federal Pizza. I have eaten here in person and had delivery. This time was delivery and it arrived cold. No fault of the restaurants as they didn't deliver it, but it made the food not as good as usual. It was a 3 star this time, but they are usually 4. The Garlic bread was great with the "spicy" marinara. I do with it had some more spice though. Make us sweat! The pepperoni pizza had a crispy artisan crust with tiny pepperonis that cup when it cooks. These are the only pepperonis I want from now on! The wings were your average buffalo wings BUT, with their homemade ranch... yum! The ranch takes the cake here. I could probably drink it. I will be back here for sure, but in person, no take away or delivery. This type of pizza doesn't hold well over time.

Awesome food. Better service. Definitely a must go to in Phoenix. What more can I say... don't ask questions Just try it!

I can't even begin to describe how amazing this place is! I have been over a dozen times and it is consistently delicious. I have tried almost their entire menu over the past three years and these are a few of my favorites: BEST PIZZA: The flaming lips!!! The combination of spicy, savory, and sweet is addictive. The best pizza I have ever had. BEST SALAD: The wedge. The dressing is incredible and pairs so well with all of the other ingredients. BEST PASTA: The lamb bolognese. The lamb and bacon go so well together and it has so much flavor. BEST DEAL: Their double down lunch special! You get half a pizza and half a salad for only $13! It's from 11-4 every day and easily big enough to share with someone! Overall, you can't go wrong with anything on their menu. Everything is consistently delicious. The service is always outstanding, and the ambiance is fancy but chill at the same time. This is my go to place whenever someone asks me where I want to go to eat in Phoenix.

I can't even tell you how many times I've been to Federal, but it has since become a staple in my diet, especially when I'm a bit too lazy to cook and craving either pizza or pasta. My go-to pizza is the Casanova pizza with extra arugula! This delectable pizza comes with slices of salty prosciutto layered with dates and ricotta and then topped off with grana padano cheese and balsamic vinaigrette. There is also a sprinkling of arugula on top, but I like the slight bitterness arugula brings so I always ask for extra! The dough itself had a nice bite with a pillow-y soft crust. I find if you go earlier in the day (not peak hours), the pizza comes out a lot better, nicer chew and crust. If I have a lot leftover, I ask for a side of the balsamic to take home since it really elevates the overall flavor of the pizza. *The At Last & standard Margherita are also equally delicious! My go-to entree is the Classic Chicken Parm with a side of butter-parm tossed spaghetti. It comes with a small side salad of baby arugula and tomatoes. However, I was feeling a bit adventurous today and opted for the lamb bolognese which comes with lamb, smoked bacon, and torchio pasta topped with grana padano. You can top both the pizza and pasta with extra cheese too! The lamb I will say had a strong meat-y flavor but there wasn't much sauce. Overall taste was on point though and it made me keep coming back for more. It is quite oil heavy as I saw a lot pooling at the bottom of the bowl, so I would keep that in mind. The pasta was a bit on the softer side, but I would still order the bolognese again or try the Mickey White! I also ordered a glass of moscato. They have a great happy hour deal on most alcoholic beverages before 5 PM, so I would take advantage of this if you're okay eating a late lunch/early dinner. Overall, 7.5/10 - the Casanova really has my heart. If I'm planning to eat Federal over a couple of days I would choose the Chicken Parm over Lamb Bolognese solely for the fact that there is so much oil which makes it a bit less palatable. **please follow @leafynoms on instagram for more content and reviews!**

Let me preface this by saying I usually have a great experience here. Unfortunately that was not the case during this visit. Ordering Online - once we placed our order online, it gave us an estimated pickup time of 45 minutes later. We arrived 3 minutes early (just in case) and didn't get our food until 60 minutes after ordering. We had a salad in our order, but didn't receive any utensils even though we requested 3 sets. Normally that wouldn't matter, but when you're staying at a hotel, it's a major inconvenience. Drive Thru - I don't recommend using this on busy nights since it gets crowded and there aren't that many pickup parking spots. Since people don't necessarily arrive in the order that the food is ready, they will most likely direct you to the parking spots in between them and Joyride. Food - I love their pizza! I recommend the meatball pizza since they make their own meatballs. They also have a good chopped salad, although I wish the lettuce was more chopped up (it's more like wild greens). I've been here before to dine in and I think I would stick to that in the future. They don't have a ton of seating inside, but I've had good service before.

Had a great experience here on a Tuesday night . We didn't know it , but we happened to come on a night they have a special with a pizza and bottle of wine for 30 bucks . Pizza size was perfect to share for two . Very cute ambiance for a date night or girls night . Nice lighting and friendly servers . Autumn did a great job being attentive and kind , service with a smile and very positive energy . We'll be backkkkkkk !

I love love love this place! There is a good amount of seating inside and outside. Usually, they have a long wait so make sure to plan accordingly. They have unique pizza toppings and I have yet to try something that isn't yummy. We ordered 2 pizzas, garlic bread and wings for 3 people and we were unable able to finish it all (we tend to eat a lot). Highly recommend adding an egg to your pizza if you're into venturing out from the norm. The service is the only downside to this establishment. We asked for a refill 3 times before we were actually able to get one. Regardless, we keep coming back because it's that good.

so I ordered from Federal for the first time since covid (tried to support) I was disappointed when I paid extra $ for onion add on and they were slice so thin and spread so widely, i couldn't even taste it. they almost looked like saffron threads. C'mon Federal, it's a freaking onion! are you that desperate for $.05? quality not near as good as it was 5 years ago. searching for the next best pie.

Not the best service but the pizza has made it into my top 5 in Phoenix and the Nutella tiramisu was oh my goodness. A little heavy on the Nutella but the cake. Damn. The cake. Cute outside space when the weather is nice :)

WOW!!!! Federal Pizza on Central has a great delicious new Pizza called "Summer Greens" The lunch special salad and Pizza for under $20.00 is a great buy! Get your butt over there soon and enjoy it! Dr Conley

The Double Down lunch special -- a half pizza and half salad of your choice -- is a delicious deal. Because I'm a sucker for sweet and savory flavor combos, I went with the Wedge salad (which has dates -- an inspired addition) and Flaming Lips pie. My husband is an unapologetic carnivore so he enjoyed the Federal Chop salad and the Meatball pizza. We both agreed that the latter was a bit bland when fresh, but melded together as leftovers the next day.

Based on the Yelp listing, we dined here during a recent visit to Phoenix. Hubby's sister flew in on Saturday, and we picked her up before proceeding to the restaurant. We had no reservation, but the wait was reasonable for a weekend evening. Our server, Willow, took good care of us, as well as provided a delicious dessert recommendation. Sis enjoyed her glass of Prosecco with a heaping plate of Garganelli. Hubby teased his sister for her vegetable entree, while he wolfed down the Lamb Bolognese. His beverage tonight was the Huss Arizona Light beer. I opted for the yummy Mickey White pasta, with enough for a doggy bag. Our shared dessert was the Salted Caramel Banana Pudding. Three thumbs up! A bustling, fun place with decent prices. My only misgiving is how dark the room is.

A go-to in Phoenix! I came here a bunch of times with friends, family, out-of-towners, and coworkers. It was a really solid spot; definitely got busy on Mondays and Tuesdays because they had their bottle/pitcher and pizza for $20 deal, but it's since gone up to $30 (ughhh inflation). Honestly, still a great deal, but knowing/remembering the really good days stings just a bit. I tried a lot of their dishes over the years - wings were delicious (buffalo and windsor gold). Casanova, At Last, and Flaming Lips pizza were phenomenal and the pasta always hit the spot. You really couldn't go wrong with anything on the menu. It was also always vibrant and lively, service was great, and, especially with the mon/tue night specials, great value for money. I loved it enough to come outside of that window too though! If you're in the area, you are in for a treat!

The pizza was absolutely delicious! Perfectly crispy crust, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of cheese and sauce. You can tell they really care about the quality of what they're serving. Great customer service as well. Thank you.

Did I just become a regular here? Came here for a quick bite after work with my husband. Did I mention we are big fans of the Blueberry Hibiscus wine cooler. We ordered a Pineapple Express pizza and 15pc wings (half buffalo/half honey hot) our pizza came out super fast! As usual, the wings were amazing! About a minute later one of the staff members tells us they are making us another pizza because they accidentally put goat cheese on the first one when they should've put mozzarella. What this review is really about is that not very many restaurants will be proactive enough to catch a mistake and fix it without the customer knowing. That is integrity and I truly respect that! Honestly, my husband and I were so hungry we really hadn't noticed it they didn't come and tell us. Again, I have so much respect for a place of business that does this. That type of service deserves my loyalty. Thank you to the staff at Federal Pizza. The food is on point every time I visit!

Great pizza you can put anything on pizza pizza I'm having a sweet potato pizza ricotta cheese delicious

East and Danielle were amazing. The food was awesome had a wonderful time with mi amore. Will be back if im still breathin.

Always a great experience at Federal Pizza! Our server Sebastian was fantastic taking our dinner to the highest level. We go out of our way to enjoy a meal at FP when in Phx.

The bill was $57 or so. Have the waiter $100 and he said"Do you want change" the. "How much change do you want?" Seriously? Asking how much your tip is going to be? I said All of It. Then left a normal tip. Sat in the middle and was out of water most of the meal. Pizza overpriced and not much meat on them. Someone needs to train the staff.

Heirloom? really? this is the farthest thing I'd expect from Federal when I ordered an Heirloom Caprese salad. try harder.
