Lil Capo Pizzeria 5.0/5 The Closest Thing to New York…read morePizza I've Found in Arizona Growing up in Upstate New York, I admittedly have high standards when it comes to pizza. After moving to Arizona in 2007, I've spent years searching for a slice that genuinely reminds me of home. While there are plenty of decent pizza spots throughout the Valley, very few capture that authentic New York style. Lil Capo Pizzeria absolutely does! Ironically, I first discovered Lil Capo after an Arizona Cardinals game. Like many people, I wasn't interested in paying stadium prices for mediocre food, so I jumped on Yelp looking for something nearby. Lil Capo had outstanding reviews, so we decided to give it a try. I'm glad we did because it's now my benchmark for New York-style pizza in Arizona. The first thing that stood out was the crust. This is exactly what a New York slice should be--thin, crispy on the bottom, slightly chewy inside, sturdy enough to fold, and never overloaded with grease. So many places think "New York style" simply means making a large slice. Lil Capo understands it's really about the balance of crust, sauce, cheese, and texture. Every bite reminded me why I miss pizza back east. The sauce has just the right amount of sweetness and acidity, the cheese is perfectly proportioned, and everything tastes fresh without trying to reinvent what already works. Sometimes simplicity executed well is the hardest thing to accomplish. Pizza: 5/5 Service was equally impressive. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and efficient. After selecting our slices, they quickly reheated them to perfection and had them on our table within minutes. It's exactly what you want from a neighborhood pizzeria--fast, relaxed, and genuinely hospitable. Service: 5/5 I also appreciated the atmosphere. Lil Capo isn't trying to be flashy or trendy. Instead, it has that classic neighborhood pizzeria feel where the focus stays exactly where it should--on making outstanding pizza. It's casual, comfortable, family-friendly, and somewhere you could easily become a regular. The pricing is another pleasant surprise. Considering the quality of the pizza and the generous slice sizes, I found everything to be very fairly priced. Overall Finding authentic New York-style pizza in Arizona has been surprisingly difficult over the years, but Lil Capo delivers exactly what I've been searching for. Authentic New York-style crust Excellent sauce-to-cheese ratio Minimal grease Friendly, efficient service Fair prices Comfortable neighborhood atmosphere I've eaten pizza throughout New York my entire life, and Lil Capo remains the closest I've found to the real thing anywhere in Arizona. Whenever I'm on the west side of the Valley--or heading to or from a Cardinals game--I find myself looking for an excuse to stop in. Next time, I'm skipping the slices and ordering an entire pie. If you're a fellow New Yorker living in Arizona and craving a slice that tastes like home, Lil Capo should be at the top of your list.

Garlic knots were kind of cold and had decent flavor, I'd get that two star for the fact they were cold and three star on flavor. Good customer service, they brought a coloring book and crayons for my toddler which was great. Okay pizza, good lunch specials for a good price.

I've even have found a couple that were really good, but still missed the mark. What am I looking for? It's hard to put it into words, but if you're from NY, you know. There is a crust, sauce, taste, cheese and oiliness that combines in a way that only a NY PIZZA can do. Like I said, if you know you know. That's what I'm looking for and guess what, I found it in this small family owned place in a strip mall on 59th Ave off the 101. It checked off all the boxes I listed. Everyone was friendly, food came out in good time fresh and hot, like burn the roof of your mouth hot. Also got the wings and I was back in Buffalo NY. Also had an antipasto salad which was plentiful with lots of meat, peppers, olives, etc. perfection all the way around.

We took the grand kids there one had pizza and one had spaghetti marinara. Since then they want to go there everyday after school. Now the whole family go there. The 2nd time we tried their steak sandwiches and eggplant sandwich and they are so delicious, their salad with a generous dressing is so fresh, The crust of the pizza is the best i've ever had. It's the perfect thin. It's a family business, they greet you with a smile and they are happy to serve you. I love going there and try new things. read more

It is perhaps one of the more homemade wood fired pizza establishments that you can find within…read moreArizona. It's local, highly rated, and not bad. I got a Margherita pizza, and although it isn't as extravagant with toppings like Grimaldi's may be, it is fresh. Pizza Star has an average menu price of $17, and $6 if you like cannolis. I will note that many people would probably rate this family owned business's pizza 4 stars overall since price may be the issue or since there may be better options, but it is consistent. It was a spot I drove past almost every day for work. It had been there for maybe a year or two, maybe longer, and to make it clear, this is not a restaurant. They're mobile-operated, and it was worth checking out. The area itself is next to a bike place, a gas station, a Sonic, and a school. This is family friendly for sure, because you'll even have other businesses around in the parking lot. But it's great ambiance. On the corner of an intersection with some seats, I sat eating their pizza without any concern for my safety as soon as the doors locked. The father and most likely the son of the establishment are attentive to their customers and will ask questions... either way, great service, but maybe hard to decide between other places and this due to price. If they made it like $1-3 cheaper, I personally would be there every week. But do try it. I only got one pizza anyways.

Loved their spicy honey mustard and I typically handle heat pretty well but even this one was kickin my butt. So proceed with caution! Their Sardella's Supreme was our choice of pie and it did not disappoint. Would recommend 10/10. We also got a box of their house-made chocolate chip cookies which were delicious BUT in my opinion were a little too soft. They were almost gooey or undercooked - took most of the cookies home and toasted them up in the toaster oven to give it a crisp on the outside but still fall-apart soft in the middle. IMO they were much better after being toasted. But overall would recommend Sardella's and will be coming back next time for our pizza and wings and cookies fix!
