We were staying in a VRBO in the boulders and ordered pizza from here instead of our usual place. The pizza was great! There seems to be a fair amount of Neapolitan style pizza places around there, and this was definitely more traditional, which is what we were looking for. Huge pizzas and huge slices. Everything was delicious and it was ready on time for pick up. read more

SUPER Delicious pizza! The best in the north valley. I wish we hadn't waited so long to try it. The waitress was so friendly and kind and helped us with descriptions and decisions. Ended up with the bbq chicken pizza. It was fabulous. Perfectly cooked, the crust is amazing!! The decor is adorable western theme and everything was very clean and tidy. Super casual place. In addition to food and service I judge a place by how clean their restrooms are. They passed all my expectations! read more

I was very excited to try this place as other Yelpers rave about their delicious crust and I was drawn to their dough fermenting process. Unfortunately I was a little disappointed by the flavor and taste. We ended up ordering Bo's meatball pizza but wasn't anything special. It tasted just like a sausage pizza with less flavor to it. I would have to sadly say that it was pretty tasteless, not to mention the crust was dry and didn't appeal my palette. They serve alcohol but they don't make any cocktails, you choose the type of alcohol and soda. My BF ordered whiskey and soda, all you can taste was the soda. They forgot about our salad so we had to ask for it. Napkins wrapped around the utensils had stains on them, pretty disturbed by it. All in all, would not recommend this place nor go back again. Not the best experience but the girl that helped us out was very friendly. read more

Best pizza in the Carefree Highway area from Lake Pleasant to Scottsdale Road/Tom Darling!! Went Friday night, not much of a crowd. Great pizza 18" Pepperoni, sausage and mushroom. Light, flaky crust, delicate sauce, great ingredients!!! Seriously, best in the area (and I LOVE pizza). Garden salad was fresh and had a good mix of ingredients. Happy Hour Domestic Drafts $5 until 6pm (other specials too, but that is what we had). Top notch!!! Support this place!! read more

We have tried a lot of pizza but this is hands down the best the Scottsdale/Cavecreek/Phoenix area! Gluten free specifically is the best around this area so far. Not great as leftovers but perfection when fresh. My favorite is the Truffle mushroom with white sauce pizza. I usually prefer more traditional but that is crave worthy.

Sad to say this but I don't think I'll ever come back up to this establishment again. I used to drive 25-30 just for the pizza here, but they got rid of the best specialty slices and kept some very basic and plain ones. The Cowboy cheesesteak was bland with nothing that made it pop. The hot Hawaiian is no better than anywhere else you could get it. The black truffle mushroom and the loaded baked potato were the best slices I've ever had in this city and I used to recommend all my clients and everyone to this place especially all the people I would pickup from the airport as one of my jobs is a driver. I'm sorry to say I won't be anymore and I hope they bring back the better options and and not make someone wait almost 30m for 2 slices. read more

Love this pizza spot. Have had several delicious pizzas as take out for the bike shop I work in. Flavorful toppings with a crisp light crust on each pie we have ordered from here. The toppings are fresh and prepared to order each time. Just like it should be. The Thai pizza is my favorite, but wear a bib because the peanut oil is gonna drench your front side if you're not careful. I will always come back for the great food and service at this fine local establishment. read more

Every time I've been here it's been good. But I called and ordered to pick up requesting that they make the pizza well done. I guess it's my fault for not checking but I hate when who's cooking just ignores your request. The pizza was under cooked. There is such a huge difference between barely cooked and well done. NOT COOL. Why would I request it well done and waste my breath, money and time? How hard is it to simply follow directions. Super disappointed. read more

Oh wow, Cowboy pizza! You put other pizzas to shame. So delicious from toppings and cheese to soft and chewy crust. The combination we ordered (Shroom pizza with couple additional toppings) worked out so perfectly. I can't remember the last time I had such delicious slice of pizza. Keep it up! Bring your patience though, ordering over the phone was difficult as it kept going straight to voicemail. This place is packed with lots of takeout orders. Just give it couple months for them to work out the new business hiccups. Enjoy! Highly highly recommend. read more

GREAT PIZZA!!! The pizza was so good, I should have got an extra for the next day. Walking in Cowboy Pizza the first thing you see is a line. It's pretty busy, but that's okay. The owner is running around doing everything they can to make sure everyone is taken care of. So nice to see this. The cashier was very helpful and kind. The food came out, we ordered a large Caesar salad, spinach artichoke dip with flatbread, and a supreme pizza. The large censers salad isn't really that large, but it was good. The spinach artichoke dip does not look good at all, it looks pretty gross, but I can assure you it taste pretty good. And the pizza, just try it! Very good stuff. read more

First let me start off by saying, as a person of color, the town of Cave Creek, at times, has made me feel a little uncomfortable. But Cowboy pizza did NOT reflect this feeling. Friendly staff, clean dining area. The pizza slices were hot and fresh. The pizza crust is a little too thin for me, but my husband LOVED it. We will definitely be back. read more

The 1.75L bottle of Tanqueray wasn't even on the shelf, and the 1L bottle was showing at $40. I knew that wasn't right, but instead of getting any assistance from the manager, I gave up and went to Gopuff. And here's the ridiculous part: Gopuff charged me $36 for the 1.75L bottle of Tanqueray, and it was delivered to my house from your BevMo store about 20 minutes later. So your own delivery partner was able to sell me the correct size for less, deliver it from the same store, and provide better customer service than the manager standing in the store. That is a pretty frustrating customer experience.

While some seats were available, it was a very warm day, and I couldn't manage sitting in the sun, as the one umbrella I saw wasn't opened, so we went back inside to see if any bar seating had opened, and fortunately for us, a couple of chairs at the bar were now available. It's super comfortable sitting at the bar here, with a nice open-air view across the bar to the outside patio area. The service was friendly, and the happy hour menu is plentiful. We were here for the food today, and there is no shortage of options at (by today's standards) pretty reasonable prices for the amount of food you get. And if you come at other than peak hours, you can even get happy hour in the main dining room and patio, so we hope to give that a try! We ordered three items: handcrafted meatballs with San Marzano sauce ($10) and rigatoni with pulled chicken ($12) from the happy hour menu and the half Tomaso's Sicilian salad from the regular menu (essentially a happy hour price at only $8). All of it was delicious, but the standout was the salad, which my wife said was even better than the salad she orders when we visit Little Italy in San Diego. That's a huge compliment! The atmosphere isn't quiet, but they didn't have super loud, blaring music when we were there, which was welcome. It's essentially a square dining room with a bar on the side. While the bar patio on the north side of the building isn't much and isn't shaded unless you score a spot with the umbrella or come at a time of day when the building blocks the sun, the main patio is nicely covered and shaded at all times. We look forward very much to coming here again and trying other items they offer, especially the pizzas. It's nice to have another dining option in this part of town. :)

Standard Crust is actually quite thick, and chewy...thin crust is a bit thicker than expected and far thicker than a typical New York crust. All very tasty. Good selection of reasonably priced beers on tap. Fast, friendly service, family run. Casual, well lit with generous seating. We would definitely recommend, and look forward to returning.

Let's talk about the lady who answers the phone and you at the counter, all she knows how to say is sweetie. Hi honey, I love how she is referring to. The customers is a little weird, creepy. Ravioli with butter and garlic might as well make that be garlic cause that's all it was about garlic Ordered a thin crust, cheese, pizza, and my pizza ovens makes better pizza than that. The dough is absolutely awful. Very cornmealish and too chewy. It was actually awful, Ray's pizza is better. First and last time

The patio views are beautiful, and the weather made it such a great spot to sit outside in the evening. The live music was a perfect touch...not too loud, so you could still have a conversation comfortably. The owner even walked around and spoke with guests, and both he and his wife were incredibly friendly. You can tell they really take pride in the entertainment they provide and in making sure customers have a great experience. As for the food, it reminded me a lot of the pizza at A Modo Mio Cucina Italiana, which is just a few streets away. If you've had and enjoyed their pizza, you'll likely enjoy Pizzicata as well. I ordered the Jennifer calzone, and it was okay. I would try a calzone again, but with different toppings. I added a meatball for an extra $3, and honestly, it didn't quite hit the spot compared to homemade meatballs. The calzone had a lot of ricotta and not a lot of other ingredients in it, so if you're not a big ricotta fan, this probably isn't the best choice. That said, the ricotta itself had a different flavor than other ricotta I'm used to. The calzone doesn't come with sauce inside, and the side of sauce is pretty small. I was charged $0.50 for an extra... I probably could've used two or three sides of sauce since the calzone had none. That being said, the sauce itself was excellent... very close to the flavor of sauce that my family makes. This sauce really gave the calzone a good Taste, it just needed more! We also tried the mozzarella sticks, and those were good. Overall, the atmosphere is beautiful, the space is a nice size, and the staff is warm and welcoming. It seems like a good place to bring kids, although when we went (Thursday around 6), I didn't see many. The decor is lovely, and the overall vibe makes it a place I'd come back

Im glad we stumbled across this place...its a a must-visit! We started with the meatball appetizer, and they were a huge hit--tender, flavorful, and the perfect way to begin our meal. My husband ordered the chicken parmesan, and he absolutely loved it. I had the chicken piccata, which was perfectly prepared and full of lemo flavor. I also tried the pizza, and it was outstanding. One of the highlights of our visit was talking with the manager, Stefano. He was incredibly friendly and provided exceptional service. He explained that everything is cooked in their wood-fired ovens, and they even make their fresh mozzarella in-house. You can definitely taste the difference! The drinks were just as impressive. We enjoyed an Italian Mule which paired amazingly well with my Chicken Picatta, a Limoncello Blueberry Mojito, and an Espresso Martini--each one was delicious. To top off an already amazing meal, we shared their caramelized dessert calzone filled with Nutella and banana and topped with ice cream. It was the perfect ending to a fantastic dining experience. From the food and drinks to the outstanding service, everything exceeded our expectations. We can't wait to come back and highly recommend Ciao Grazie to anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience!

The sign wasn't changed yet but the staff said they had just changed over to Enzo's and that they were changing over everything. Since we were from out town we were not understanding reputations or what to expect. It felt like a good spot but seemed pretty slow. The staff were amazing from the start. The white pie wasn't in the menu but they made it and helped me figure out what would bring me back to my old neighborhood. All the food we ordered was great. We even had cannoli's a chicken parm and Alfredo ordered to go so it would get me through my treatments at the Mayo Clinic to get me through my treatment before we went home. When we came back for my surgery we literally said we could not wait to come back. Don't sleep in this spot Phoenix and if yall even need to expand. Come to northern nevada and California

So she decided to wait until my dish arrived before eating hers. The quality of the food made up for it. Prices are very fair considering.

While some seats were available, it was a very warm day, and I couldn't manage sitting in the sun, as the one umbrella I saw wasn't opened, so we went back inside to see if any bar seating had opened, and fortunately for us, a couple of chairs at the bar were now available. It's super comfortable sitting at the bar here, with a nice open-air view across the bar to the outside patio area. The service was friendly, and the happy hour menu is plentiful. We were here for the food today, and there is no shortage of options at (by today's standards) pretty reasonable prices for the amount of food you get. And if you come at other than peak hours, you can even get happy hour in the main dining room and patio, so we hope to give that a try! We ordered three items: handcrafted meatballs with San Marzano sauce ($10) and rigatoni with pulled chicken ($12) from the happy hour menu and the half Tomaso's Sicilian salad from the regular menu (essentially a happy hour price at only $8). All of it was delicious, but the standout was the salad, which my wife said was even better than the salad she orders when we visit Little Italy in San Diego. That's a huge compliment! The atmosphere isn't quiet, but they didn't have super loud, blaring music when we were there, which was welcome. It's essentially a square dining room with a bar on the side. While the bar patio on the north side of the building isn't much and isn't shaded unless you score a spot with the umbrella or come at a time of day when the building blocks the sun, the main patio is nicely covered and shaded at all times. We look forward very much to coming here again and trying other items they offer, especially the pizzas. It's nice to have another dining option in this part of town. :)

We were greeted by a very friendly lady who was our server. She was outgoing, confident and knowledgeable about the restaurant. We enjoyed excellent cocktails before dinner.

It's not a corporate mega restaurant but rather a cozy but upscale bar and eatery. We will definitely be returning some time soon keeping in mind we live 2 hours north. We also like the location near Desert Ridge which we frequently shop at when we're down in that area.

It's directly under the TV, which makes the screen harder to see, and honestly, it looks tacky. It's the only beer sign in an otherwise really nice-looking bar and just doesn't fit the vibe. Other than that, great experience!
