Reilly Craft Pizza and Drink

A jewel in the heart of Tucson! We had an amazing experience at Reilly Craft Pizza and Drink. The food was delicious, with authentic flavors and an impeccable presentation. The handmade pizzas are spectacular, and the atmosphere of the place is modern and cozy, perfect for a date or an outing with friends. Of course, we recommend that you make a reservation in advance, since the wait can be more than 2 hours, especially on weekends. It's totally worth the wait, but it's better to avoid it! We will definitely return. A must-see in Tucson if you love good pizza and well-prepared cocktails! 🍕🍸

Was in town for the weekend on work and was craving some pasta. Came here and was greeted by some friendly staff including Sadie and enjoyed a very delicious espresso martini. I ordered the rigatoni and had a great time in this very cozy restaurant!

I went at 17:00 and booked a table. I gets very busy. The Simple salad was a mix of salad leaves with a dressing. It was huge. Enough for two people. Pizzas were thin crust so that was just right.

Interesting flavors. Reasonable price for a bottle of Italian wine. We sat out back, which was much quieter than inside. We were a bit surprised by the amount of self-service. Portions were good. We enjoyed our visit to this re-purposed mortuary, the oldest in Tucson.

A solid spot for pasta and wine, though some dishes were disappointing. Visiting as walk-ins on a Sunday evening, we were told there would be a 20-30 minute wait, but we could sit at the bar and order drinks while we wait for a table. We accepted and enjoyed a glass of Pinot Grigio at the bar. Soon after, we were seated at a nearby table where a friendly server took our orders. We started with brussels sprouts as an appetizer, which unfortunately arrived overly burnt and excessively oily, making the flavors overwhelming and unenjoyable (3/10). For mains, we chose the vodka rigatoni and a classic pepperoni pizza. The rigatoni was excellent and the highlight of the meal (8/10). However, the pepperoni pizza was greasy, oily, and overall nothing special (5/10). The service, although friendly, felt somewhat distant as we rarely saw our server for the rest of the evening. Prices were about average, but aside from the enjoyable wine and pasta, the pizza and brussels sprouts left much to be desired and overall a disappointment.

Summer was super friendly and helpful! Darlena, the mixologist at the Tough Luck Club, was phenomenal and explained and answered all of our questions! In addition, she was nice and made amazing drinks! I highly recommend it!!!!!

This is a go-to place for my husband and I. It’s an excellent date night place. The food is always delicious and I feel well priced. Some of my personal favorites are the Brussels, roasted cauliflower and for a cocktail, the iron horse old fashioned. Yum! I haven’t gotten the chance to enjoy the garden they have outside but the speak easy down stairs is another fun stop. They have some fun cocktails.

⭐☆☆☆☆ We were a party of three grabbing dinner before a show. The evening started fine — greeted by three hostesses, seated quickly, and served by a friendly waiter who seemed to be training another. Then came the strangest part of the night: a hostess returned to confiscate our half-drunk can of water that she’d already approved when we arrived. Yes, a can of plain water — not alcohol, not outside food. Just water. The restaurant provides water on every table, so the decision to take ours felt petty, unnecessary, and frankly demeaning. Technically, under Arizona law (A.R.S. §13-1802), taking something someone already possesses without real consent could even qualify as theft — a weird precedent to set over forty-five cents’ worth of hydration. The menu was limited, overpriced, and by that point, the atmosphere went from classy to smug. We decided to leave and spend our $150 elsewhere. If you’re looking for a place that values basic respect over arbitrary rules, this isn’t it.

Wonderful spot for a date, great bar area. Fun for an evening out downtown. 5* = A top favorite. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient or the only option. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = Stay away at all costs!

This is a popular eatery downtown. The drinks are delicious and the food was very filling! Our cocktails were delicious and pretty! We ordered the rigatoni, brussel sprouts and a margarita pizza. The food was really good overall. I would recommend and order again. I didn't love the ricotta toast- I'm not sure what it's typically like but the bread was pretty burnt and hard, so I would not recommend this dish. It's a great place to catch up with friends or for a date night. The lighting is super dark - which could be nice for a romantic setting. It definitely took several minutes for my eyes to adjust and be able to see the menu. Cool spot downtown that I recommend

I've been wanting to go to this restaurant for a while. I had a high expectation for this place as my Italian friend had told me their meatballs were so good. Well unfortunately they were out of meatballs that night. I ordered prosciutto and arugula pizza. Pizza was really good! My bf ordered cacio e pepe. Even though I'm not a big fan of cacio e pepe, theirs was pretty good!! I really liked their pasta! A few things to point out: Pizza took much longer than the pasta. I went there on a super busy night( u of a family weekend) and I'm sure they can only fit a few pizza in the oven so I totally understand but they should probably warn their customer that it was going to take a while. I thought they had forgotten my order. This is not a complaint or anything because it's not their fault, but it's probably better to eat inside if you are ordering a pasta on a chilly night. We sat at the bar on the rooftop and it got cold so quick The view is nice though!

We are pizza lovers. It is one of our favorite things so we were told that when in Tucson, for pizza you have to go to Reilly and that is so true. Everything is great!!! The Brussels sprouts were fantastic with the house hot sauce, a little sweet and a little heat. The pizza is amazing! Char is desired and intended so don't be alarmed. And don't worry, I don't gate keep- they do half and half pizza which is the best of both worlds. Everything is great!

I have been to Reilly before multiple times but went here for NYE and was lucky to get a table for 3 without reservations...our server was really great and attentive, however, since it was NYE, it seems like it took a little longer for food to come out as there's notably less servers working that night so our server had a lot of tables she was responsible for. I really wish I could give a lot of praise for the food but it's really kinda mediocre to not very good...the truffle fries we had were super salty I finished a whole carafe of water just trying to eat them, again our server was really great and was amenable to getting a new plate of truffle fries with little to no salt and the re-do was definitely much improved. I had high hopes for the Reid Park refresher cocktail but it kinda fell flat and wasn't the most "refreshing." The saving grace though was the tiramusu in a jar. Probably one of the better tasting tiramisu I have had and in a slightly more creative presentation. Will continue to come back and hopefully the restaurant will only get better...

First and foremost the lighting in the main dining area ensures I would never come back. It was horrible to read or view anything. If the lighting was 20% brighter the effect would still be the same. The service was fantastic. Robert was our server and he was attentive without being overbearing and pleasant to be around. Truffle fries were good not great. You get a heap of them. Perfectly salted but truffle undetectable on the fries. It was slightly detectable in the aioli. Aioli mainly tasted of just straight mayo though no garlic. I used to really really love this place pre-pandemic. But clearly a lot has changed. I would have told anyone who would listen to me that the pepperoni and Fresno chili pizza was to die for. Not anymore. The pizza has gotten slightly larger maybe? But the taste was sad. I remember a vibrant pizza with pockets of delicious spice that didn't require ranch or even a sprinkle of Parmesan. This time around I had to DOUSE my pizza in chili flakes and Parmesan which helped DRAMATICALLY. The Fresno chilis were UNDETECTABLE and the pizza was so so sooooo greasy!!!!!! The pizza was better after taking it home and being able to dip it in ranch. Which, this place prides itself on not providing it but the quality of food has dropped enough that maybe they shouldn't be so proud to not have it (bc it's needed). Overall I would not come back. $30 meal that was nothing to write home about. I don't know if owners or management changed but If I have to dip my pizza in ranch, add chili flakes and Parmesan to make it taste better what's the difference between this and a frozen pizza that you could add the same things to and get the same result with MUCH less oil?

This was one of the first places I ate at when I visited Tucson in 2018. It's such a great downtown spot! I love the pizza, the meatball appetizer, the simple salad, the Caesar salad, and the Brussels sprouts. My favorite pizza is the Yukon Gold Potato pizza - it has cream sauce and is topped with rosemary - it's the perfect marriage of pizza and potatoes! The vibe is fun and the service is always great. We love this place!

Went to Reilly's with a friend for dinner and it was a really cute place! We ordered truffle fries as an appetizer, and these were amazing. I lowkey judge a place based on how good their fries are....and Reilley's passed! For mains, we split a pizza with half pep and half mushroom topping and Mafalda. The pizza was pretty good, had a nice texture and wasn't too dough-y. The pasta was a little bit on the saltier side, but the noodles were cooked perfectly!

The bartenders are horrible. We were enjoying dinner there and they refused to serve us after one glass of wine. No one was drunk. We left right after dinner which was honestly mediocre at best.

Still one of my favorite pizza places in Tucson. Checked out the rooftop tonight for the first time and loved it. There's lots of fans and misters going so it wasn't too warm. Order at the bar and get a number, very casual dining. Service was great. I got my usual, half apple pecan brittle salad and shared a pizza with half pepperoni and fresnos and half meatball and ricotta. Huge fan.

I stopped by here with a group tonight and sat indoors in the back beer area. I tried the vegan pizza and added mozzarella cheese. It tasted like they poured salt on the pizza. I couldn't eat more than 2 slices. My friend had the Margherita pizza. I tried it and it was decent. It wasn't salty but it was a little burned.

Overall 4.5 out of 5. A great place to grab some food and drinks. The appetizer is a generous portion size that can definitely share with 4+ people. The pizza crust was excellent. The only personal issue I had was, too much red sauce. Other than that, the pizza was flawless. The pasta sauce was amazing! Silky, cheesy, not overwhelming. Great flavors, huge portion. The fennel sausage was a little much, but overall would eat this pasta again...and again and again. Food and drinks came out quick. Service was great!

First time in Tucson and a number of people recommended Reilly. Overall the experience was a good one. It took too long to start service once we were seated, to the point we wondered if we needed to wave someone down. Now, once our server took our drink orders it was smooth sailing and our waitress was on top of it. We started the meal with the brussel sprouts and it was outstanding. The flavor is a bit on the spicy side, which is fine by me. Very flavorful and cooked well. For dinner I ordered a half mushroom half kitchen special pizza. The mushroom side was much tastier than the kitchen special. The special was a mix of odd flavors like pineapple and fried onions. I should have stuck to their normal menu options. Pizza was cooked well, but it had too much flop for my liking. Overall the pizza was good, not great. As far as ambiance, this restaurant is definitely for a much younger crowd (like college kids). It's loud, busy and not the place to spend a quiet evening. This place is definitely worth a visit if your craving a pizza is Tucson.

This was my favorite meal while we were in Tucson. Started with the bread which was honestly the most delicious thing and I don't know how something so simple can be so amazing but it was so make sure you order it! They said pizzas were personal size so hubby and I shared the yukon gold and chopped salad and it was way too much food. Definitely plan on 1 pizza for 2 people!

We went here for dinner with friends and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is lovely and calm and our server was on top of things and kind. We got a couple of pizzas (margherita and. Sausage one) and salads to split and they were fresh and flavorful. The sausage was a personal favorite. The prices were reasonable if not a little on the high end, but in line with what I'd expect for this location. There wasn't a stand out dish this visit, hence the 4 stars, but everything was positive and this visit made us excited to come back when we're in the area.

A welcoming eatery housed in a former funeral parlor (that's what our Uber driver told us). Came on a Thursday for dinner and were seated quickly. Server was prompt and attentive enough. Shared the chopped salad - requested the salami on the side and was accommodated. I went with the rigatoni with vodka sauce. The pasta is made in-house and was perfectly Al dente. The vodka sauce needed a bit more zip, but was good. Dessert is made in-house also - the chocolate budino is a mousse with salted caramel, toffee and fresh cream. Deliciousness in a jar!

Beautiful Industrial looking restaurant located in the downtown area. We weren't sure if we wanted to order the mushrooms or the meatball pizza , our super nice waitress recommended a split pizza, wonderful option. The pizza was delicious, we also ordered the apple pecan and gorgonzola salad ( nothing out of the ordinary but good). I highly recommend this restaurant has a great ambiance.

Reilly never disappoints! Consistent presentation and taste which is rare to find these days. The pasta is cooked to perfection. Must try's are the vodka pasta, the potato pizza and the cauliflower.

From someone who is plant based! Their "plant based" pizza is a joke with just a couple of vegetables on thin pizza with sauce. The service was also mediocre

Great pizza joint, came here with a group of four on a Saturday with a 6:30 reservation. We were promptly seated and put our orders in. The standout for me was the Brussel sprouts. Also got the Caesar salad and chopped salad which were alright. Meatballs were great. The pizzas were quite good as well. Definitely recommend trying it if you haven't before.

Reilly's a hidden gem. As hidden as seven hundred-twenty Yelp'er can make it. We came here while having a stay-cation nearby. Tucson is perfect for that, since it's slightly cooler than Phoenix during the summer months. The service was prompt and professional, and it has a romantic atmosphere. The food is exquisite and fairly priced, another benefit of Tucson. We started with a glass of Pinot and Montepulciano, along with two appetizers of Roasted Cauliflower and Brussels Sprouts. For our entrées, we went with the Rigatoni with vodka sauce & basil, along with the Tagliatelle Beef Bolognese with sausage. Both were incredibly tasty and had layers of flavor. Wow. For dessert, we went with the Chocolate Budino and the Tiramisu in a Jar. Again, both were Fabulous. See photos. Our tab before taxes and gratuities came to a little over one hundred and we felt it was a steal for this Five Star experience. We'll be back on our next trip.

A bit late, but i finally made my way to Reilly, and man, I gotta say, it did not disappoint!! I was not only in awe of the ambiance, the wonderful aroma, but also fantastic, attentive service, food, and special sophistication in drinks.. It's downtown's best kept not-so-secret, secret. I also love the courtyard, and the split between the lower Tough Luck Club, and the new upstairs outdoors rooftop bar option that just opened up as well.. A unique, special spot.

Pasta wasn't the best. Lacked flavor and the noodles were a bit undercooked. Ambiance was nice though

The place is really cool and hip, Great patio seating. The food good, pizza was yummy, I had the mushroom with truffle cheese. I wasn't expecting it to be so salty but it was great tasting just needs less salt I'm guessing from truffle cheese. The pastas we're fantastic the spaghetti (cacio e Pepe) was very rich and cooked perfect. Loved the rigatoni the vodka sauce was so good. Cannolis were perfect. Our waitress seemed stressed and wasnt the most friendly it was the only bad thing about dinner but I know they were busy which is no excuse for rude attitudes towards costumers. I wont hold it against the place but definitely need to explain customer service to that employee.

booked a reservation here several days in advance for my birthday. realized we needed an extra chair called several times nobody picked up when we came that refused to seat us because of the extra person even though there was more then enough room. claimed it was because of fire code but when i had been there the month prior they had no problem pulling up an extra chair so it sounds like they were just lazy. very disappointed i really liked coming here for birthdays and such but will not be coming back street dealing with their rude staff they also tried to charge me for "missing my reservation" after refusing to seat us. forgot about this since it happened in October but yelp asked for a review so here's my review

Went here on a Thursday night for a quick bite! Really exceptional food, be sure to try the potato + pecorino pizza , as well as the vodka rigatoni. The rooftop views as a delight at sunset and the golden hour views are worth it. Can get a little chilly, so make sure you to bring a jacket at night. Table is first come first serve. The food comes directly from the kitchen.

This is my second time at Reilly's and I cannot rave enough about their delicious food and drinks! My husband and came to Reilly's for a date night. We started off the evening with a Halfway to Hefen, a Reid Park Refresher, and the Brussels Sprouts. My entree was the Mafalda (beef bolognese) and I cannot express how much I enjoyed this dish. The pasta is as cooked to perfection and the sauce was incredible. The pasta is quite saucy, but I prefer extra sauce, so I thought it was absolutely perfect. My husband enjoyed the meatball and ricotta pizza. I had this pizza my first time here, and I can say with confidence that it is amazing. Meatballs are well seasoned and pair perfectly with the ricotta. Crust is nice and crispy on the outside, but soft and fluffy on the inside. The size of the pizza is big enough to take home left overs, or to share with another person. For dessert, we ordered a Cannoli and a Tiramisu in a Jar. The Cannolis come with three to an order and have chocolate chips on one side and rainbow sprinkles on the other. The tiramisu in a jar is out of this world. It is perfectly balanced with sweetness and coffee, and the lady fingers hold their shape well without being dry! It is a must try. The service is excellent and the ambiance is great. Food and drinks were out fast, despite a full restaurant.

Reilly's is a go-to spot for me when I crave a nice, casual Italian meal. I often bring friends and family here who are visiting from out of town. Their rooftop patio is stunning, especially when the weather in Tucson is beautiful (shoutout to Tony for being a great rooftop bartender.) I never miss ordering their Brussels sprouts (a perfect mix of spicy and sweet) along with their rigatoni pasta. And their pizzas? Also fantastic.

Delicioussssss. The bread with oil is to die for. The pizza is outstanding. The drinks are great. The vibes are immaculate, this place rocks. There is a cute bar downstairs even and the outdoor seat yourself patio is great for when the restaurant is busy. They have some of the best pizza in Tucson for sure!

Bringing a cake in for a birthday? Be prepared to bring the original receipt. And box. And $15 for a cake fee. All of which they do not tell you over the phone. We got it waived since service was so bad for our party of 11, but the concept of a cake fee for a cake we bought is silly. They also don't let you cut the cake either which in their head must rationalize their little hidden fee. All in all they should be upfront about the fee instead of dropping it on us in the middle of dinner. Bringing a homemade cake? Forget it. They don't allow that either. Something about "liability". I wonder if they force you to throw away the cake if you do make it yourself. Perhaps they just turn you away altogether, which may be for the best. Anyways. That's not all. Checks for large tables are a joke. No matter what you say or plead they can only split the check 6 ways evenly (they don't tell you this over the phone either). Not many restaurants have that policy and take a hint at the reason why. It's because it's stupid that's why. Brought it up to the waitress twice if we could split the checks any differently (surprise...she said no...both times) and from that moment on she had a problem with me. I personally couldn't tell but our party said the look on face when she would leave the table said it all. She was lucky that there was automatic gratuity for large tables because the service was really subpar, un-empathetic, and embarrassing for a higher-end restaurant. One last thing: Prosecco is served in a 4oz cocktail glass. Last time I checked a regular champagne flute or average wine glass pour is about 6-8oz give or take (internet says the average pour is 5oz but I've been to quite a few restaurants in town that serve more than that- for arguments sake let's just stick with the 5oz average). So yeah you get short poured by at least an 1oz for the hefty price of $13. Even Postinos will give you at least a 6oz pour for that price. Anyways, don't come here, especially if it's your birthday. Oh, almost forgot, food was ok I guess ‍

First of all my food was yummy! I had the ricotta toast and my taste buds were in love with the creaminess, charred flavor on bread and sweet honey kick. The vodka posts was a hit!! Everyone loved the spiciness it had. We also for the russet pizza. Without the roasted garlic and rosemary it lacked a little flavor. Our server was kind and fast! The lights are dim but not too dim where you can't eat comfortably. It is kind of loud so if you expect to have a quiet date this is not the place for you. We will be visiting again soon!

this restaurant clearly lacks communication. do not try coming here if you have a party of six.

I had an amazing time at Reilly. Their pizzas were delicious; the crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. What really stood out, though, were the cocktails. They were expertly crafted and packed a punch of unique flavors. The combination of great pizza and outstanding cocktails made for a fantastic dining experience. This place is definitely worth a visit if you're a fan of delicious food and creative drinks!

Top 4 or 5 pizzas we have ever eaten. The crust was obviously "crafted"; chewy with charred edges. We got a fabulous salad while we were waiting for the pizza which took about 30 minutes as the place was packed on a Saturday night. The pizza was 1/2 Arugula and Prosciutto and 1/2 Meatball and Ricotta. I'd just order the Meatball and Ricotta next time as it was sooooo good. The pizza and salad were well made and tasty, but not loaded with ingredients and the pricing reflects this.

I really enjoy this place. The butter pecan salad (sub feta or Parmesan for blue cheese) is delicious and creative, yummy pizza. Nice inside dining room as well as casual beer garden out back and a fun speakeasy bar downstairs. Great choices for vegetarians, vegans and carnivores. Always my choice for dinner didn't before a show at The Fox or Rialto.

Ok so this was the best pepperoni pizza I have ever had. Beautiful building, friendly staff and delicious drinks. You must try if you like pizza.

Overall pretty good experience! We came here as a large group for a birthday dinner and they did a great job at organizing a large table for us. The service was great for a large group! Cocktails were definitely the highlight as was the lively environment! I can't remember whenever we tried for drinks but no one was unhappy. For food, the bread and Brussel sprouts are a must! So so good! Pizza was decent. Fun place for a group celebration!

Great food. Great staff. I love the potato garlic pizza, the pasta was great too. They custom made us an arugula version of the apple pecan salad which was delicious.

Enjoyed a nice dinner for restaurant week while in town for work. Perfect opportunity to give the delicious salad pasta and dessert a try! Quick service sitting at the bar solo. Made sure to checkout downstairs for a nightcap as well. Loved that vibe!

Another great Tucson pizza spot. It's a cool ambience, especially considering it used to be a funeral parlor. Getting a reservation for a busy weekend night is recommended but they have plenty of bar seats and quick turnaround. I've only eaten the vegan pizza, which I was initially skeptical about because they don't have vegan cheese. They let you add nutritional yeast for a dollar, which gives it a nutty/cheesy flavor. The crust and sauce are excellent on their own, so I don't expect it matters too much which pizza you choose, it will probably be delicious. The beer, wine, and cocktail selections leave nothing to be desired and they even have a nice scotch menu if you have room after your pizza.

Absolutely outstanding place! The food and the service and the building are all amazing. When you visit, keep in mind that the building was a funeral parlor, from about 1920. The basement bar is where the casket showroom was. This place has a deep history.

Dec 7, 2023, 5:15PM: This was our 4th time to eat at a Reilly Craft Pizza and Drink, the first Downtown & definitely the last! Honestly, the Margaretta pizza was wet, sloppy wet from about 2 inches in from the crust to the center. What is it? tomato soup with dough noodles or a tomato dip? It was not eatable. I have had the Mafalda Bolognese 3 other times at the North location & it was fantastic. Same dish downtown was way to salty. Take a bite & then drink something to soften it. Did anyone in the kitchen even taste the sauce before sending it out? Not to hark on the kitchen failures but the noodles were gummy. To say I am disappointed is putting it mildly. The reaction from the staff & manager was between mechanical & disinterest.

Overhyped and way too busy .. the outside bar is nice for a quick drink if you have the patience to wait while one bartender runs around trying to serve 20+ people. Management is seriously lacking here they are understaffed. The food was decent nothing to go out of your way for.

One of the best pizzas of my life and believe me, that covers a lot of ground. I generally try a potato pizza if there is one on the menu and this didn't disappoint.

Great pizza and beer stop in the downtown area! They have a modest selection of pizzas, apps, and a few pasta dishes along with beers on tap and custom cocktails. The business is directly above another cocktail bar, "tough luck club", which you can visit after dinner if you have the chance. Lots of indoor seating meant we didn't even have to wait on a busy Saturday night.

Reillys is the best italian spot in town! The staff is always friendly and accommodating to food needs. I always recommend it if you want a nice italian place in downtown tucson.The rooftop bar seating and the beer garden are a must for the tucson summer nights and for birthday dinners with friends. Be sure to get the Vodka Pasta and the margarita Pizza you wont regret it!.

The best pizza and pasta I've had in Tucson. The place is wonderful for dinner before seeing a show downtown. The salads as well are great. They have a hidden basement bar downstairs and an outdoor bar as well. Highly recommend.

This place is great for date night! The ambiance is nice with dark lighting. I had the pizza, which was delicious and my partner had the gluten free pasta. I tried it myself and the gf options were super! I will definitely be back.

Consistent with good food and service. The speak easy down stairs is a fun after dinner drink spot.
