Great pies here, coal fired ovens make for great flavor Had to take dinner to-go. Saturday night and reservations were scarce Much better taste hot out of the oven but still tasty to-go read more

Grimaldi's Pizzeria has been my go-to pizza spot for years, and I've visited several of their locations across multiple states. This review is specifically for the SanTan Village location in Gilbert. The pizza was awesome as always. This time we ordered the Exxtra Pepperoni & Hot Honey - Traditional Pizza, and it definitely did not disappoint. The bartender gave us a heads-up that it was very hot, but we found the heat level to be just right. The Caesar salad was also very tasty and a great complement to the meal. I'm giving 4 stars this time due to what seemed like staffing issues. We arrived around 4:30 and noticed quite a few open tables--probably around 25% of the dining area--but were told there would be a 20-30 minute wait to be seated. We ended up choosing to dine at the bar instead since there were seats available. Overall, still a great experience with excellent food, but hopefully the seating situation improves next time. read more

We have been a few times a year since moving to AZ 2016. This time 2/7 they just didn't seem to be firing on all cylinders other than us being seated immediately. The restaurant was about full. We have been at the San Tan Mall location many times where there were long wait times. Not this particular day. Our server was very good and kept checking on us and our order. However, many of the tables were waiting extremely long times for their food despite pizza constantly coming out of the brick oven (we could see every pizza coming out of the oven and being cut). The pizza was hot, fresh and tasted great once we received it. read more

It's been at least 15 years since I've been to a Grimaldi's location, so when I was at the Kiln a few weeks ago and saw Grimaldi's across the street I made a mental note to try it out next time around. Well, fate delivered as my son had a birthday party at the escape room right next to the Kiln and Grimaldi's, so my wife and I had ourselves a lunch date. There was a 30min wait which was fine and gave us time to wander the shops for a bit. Once inside and seated I noticed the place is quite small and the tables were very close together. The waitresses kept rubbing elbows with me as they walked by between tables...must be a nightmare to serve people in here. Luckily the noise level wasn't too bad and I was able to converse with my wife. I downloaded the app and made an account to get a free appetizer, so we got the antipasto. It was a plate of mozzarella, peppers, two kinds of olives and salami. The bread came on another plate. All the ingredients were fresh and it was tasty. We split 'The Duo' pizza which was pesto + tomato sauce and pepperoni + sausage. I love pesto pizza and theirs did not disappoint. The crust was sturdy enough to hold up the slice but thin enough to have a moderate crunch and not be too doughy and filling. The pizza makers must have it down to a science because 30s too long or 30s too short in the oven would ruin the crust. We both had a pleasant lunch and the food was above average. No real issues with our first adventure here. I suspect though when this place is full at peak lunch or dinner hours it's difficult to hear and move around. Thanks Grimaldi's SanTan for the enjoyable experience. read more

I've written a 5 star review before, today was different. The service was great even though Sasha Had a super busy area. The beer was not as cold as usual. No difference even if you changed brands. The pizza was burnt and we waited at least 45 minutes for it to come out, which I well understand since it was a Friday night. Please. You downgrade your brand when the pizza is burnt. We didn't return it because we didn't want to wait longer. It makes a difference. Do better. We want to frequent your restaurant. read more

We love Grimaldi's Chicago style pizza. There's just something about their sauce that makes me addicted. A delicious thin crust, addictive sauce finished off in a wood fire oven always leaves me wanting more. I have to say the restaurant could be a bit larger to accommodate customers during peak time, but it's in the Santan mall area so they are not able to expand the existing building unless another business near them was to move out. When you enter the restaurant you get an old school Chicago style feeling with enhancements like brick walls and the wood fire pizza oven. The oven is the focal point when you walk into the restaurant. It's visible from the seating area and they make your pizza right in front of you. Off to the right there's a large bar with plenty of seating and during the nice months, they have the garage door rolled up so you can enjoy the beautiful weather. There's also patio seating. When we arrived around 7:30 PM on a Monday night, it was approximately half full. We were seated at an odd table that was near a small pillar by the front door. After dodging a few pizzas from staff on their way out to the patio, I requested to move to one of the other open tables in a lower traffic area. On this trip, we ordered the Mediterranean Salad which came with romain lettuce, tomatoes, red, onions, feta cheese, and their house made vinaigrette. I always ask for extra vinaigrette because I love to dip my crust in it. It is uniquely delicious. There's something about their emulsification process that ensures the dressing doesn't separate. The salad is available in small or large. The small was plenty of food for my husband and I with some leftover to take home. Next time we will get the dressing on the side so we can take it home. Definitely enough salad to feed 3 to 4 people. For our pizza selection we did their seasonal pizza that was recommended to us by our FANTASTIC server Maddie. She said it's her favorite seasonal pizza and she waits all year for it. Wow she was right. It was scrumptious. It came with traditional sauce and pesto sauce. Topped with cheese, pepperoni, and thinly sliced spicy Italian cup sausage. We also ordered Mike's Honey Hot pizza. I love the combination of pepperoni with Mike's Honey Hot drizzle on top. It is my go to when we order Grimaldi's, but I have to say the duo as long as it's available will be my go to instead. I do feel like they charge for anything extra you order. For example, if you wanted Mike's honey hot drizzled on any pizza it's two dollars a side of ranch is an extra charge so there are lots of extra charges, but we still love this pizza parlor! read more

We had an amazing experience and got a pepperoni pizza. We asked for it to be a little more done and it was PERFECT! Service was prompt. We were in and out quickly. They give the kids dough to play with instead of crayons and paper. They had fun building things and creating letters. Super Convenient shopping right there as well! Definitely recommend! read more

Always a fantastic choice. All locations! I just moved to this side of town though, and I'm so happy that this location stands up like the rest. Great food, great wine, amazing service.

Our first time here. I had wanted to eat here after seeing their advertisement at Sky Harbor Airport Terminal 4. We were seated immediately and a server approached us within a minute. Our server was very friendly and cheerful. We ordered beverages and they were brought to us within a few minutes. We ordered an appetizer and a 12" pepperoni and mushroom pizza. We had the appetizer within 5 minutes and the pizza soon followed as we finished our appetizer. The pizza was perfect! We loved the crust. The sauce, pepperoni and mushrooms were also delicious. We can't wait to return!!!! read more

Came on a Friday night, understand it's busy probably going to wait 30 minutes for a pizza. Went on a 45 minute wait, not bad would rather have waited longer and let kitchen catch up instead of waiting a FULL HOUR for one pizza. Worst part pizza was wrong, but no point waiting 2 hours on pizza. When ordering our cocktails asked if I could order a drink the sangria without strawberry puree told me they were out of the strawberry puree anyways, perfect right? Nope can't do the drink at all. Okay that's fine maybe keeping to a standard or whatever. Order our cheese pizza ask for no Romano blend, the server then asks me what that is. I tell her I don't want the spices or the extra parmesan put on top of the pizza just sauce and cheese. She informs me that they don't do that. I didn't want to correct her maybe I was wrong. Pizza comes out an hour later with spices and Parmesan put on. If staff is too overwhelmed to remember what goes on their food or kitchen takes an hour for one pizza then maybe wait to seat and get the dinning room in order. read more

Great pizza and it was a joy to pick up dinner from our favorite pizza place. I can't wait to go back!

We went here for dinner tonight. We went early and the wait for 2 was still 45 minutes. The guy and gal when we walked in were not too friendly. While waiting for our table two people came in asking for their table. The staff said they were too late and they would have to be put at the bottom of the list, it was their policy. The guy complained and they were out at the top of the list and taken straight to a table. The food was good and fresh. The outdoor seating was closed which was too bad as it was a super nice night. The restaurant overall needs some remodeling. It is looking old inside. read more

Worst time at Grimaldis... walked in and asked for a table with a high chair and the host and manager turned their backs to me and looked where they could stick us... got seated us in the invisible zone apparently because the host never came back with menus... I had to go get those... and luckily they just stack them by the host table because there was no host. The manager walked by multiple times in the 15 minutes that nobody came to take our order or bring us menus and he never asked how it's going or if he could help.... He was too busy chatting with staff. The waitress finally came when the host decided to tell her she sat us in her section. The waitress was great and took good care of us. I didn't get her name but she had long hair and a few tatts. The pizza was great but it's sad that a few bad apples can ruin a place like this. They are definitely not family friendly. Go to sals in Gilbert if you're looking for better all around. This place went downhill. read more

The margarita pizza had way too much water in it. It became a soggy mess in 5 minutes. I could put the cloth against the pizza to absorb the majority of the clear liquid. I'm not sure if they make the sauce raw here or have canned tomatoes, if canned, they never drained them before putting it on the pizza. The waitress was nice and my little brother's cheese pizza was great. read more

I went here after doing some shopping at santan mall. I was not very impressed. Pricing was one of my top concerns. My friends and I went here just for a quick pizza. We wanted to share a 14 inch pizza- half sausage half spinich. The toppings were an extra fee and the price for each topping was the same no matter if it was for half of the pizza or the whole thing( 1/2 sausage +$4, 1/2 Spinich +$2). We ended up spending nearly 30 dollars for one pizza, that seems outrageous given it wasn't much bigger than a personal pizza you can get for 12 dollars out at a build your own pizza place. Service was good, waiter at the bar was great, just wish they would reconsider how they priced their toppings as it makes it a very hard place to eat out with friends and share! read more

My family and I we used to love this place but recently the service has sucked. We went to the bar to eat and get a drink, the waitress looked like she was upset that we sat down, the first thing she told us was it will take 30 min for the pizza, which we were fine with. We got there at 4... at 5:30 is when we got the pizza. As we took our first bite another waitress told us to move to a different seat so someone else can come to the bar. Mind you... the bar is completely full. The seat they wanted us to move was right next to the trash. If the waitress would have asked us before we have gotten our food then we would have moved. We ended up taking our food to go. Trust me I understand that they want to serve other people but we also had to wait, so I thought that they were very rude. read more

Been waiting to try this place for a while. We're new to the Phoenix area and are always looking for good pizza. My Wife and I love a good thin crust pie, so when we heard the place had great thin crust we decided to try it. Daisy was our bartender and she was awesome, always making sure we had everything we needed. On to the pizza. It was very good. Good sauce, great crust, excellent meats, mushrooms and olives. Calling it a thin crust, though, is an understatement. It's actually too thin. It was so thin, it got a little soggy in a matter of minutes. It didn't take away from the overall flavor, or our experience, but it's just a little too thin. I'm sure we'll be back. read more

So we arrived 15 minutes early for a 4 o'clock reservation. All seats were empty in the restaurant. They would not seat us. Do these people know that they make more money on alcohol drinks???? Why would it hurt them to seat us with an empty restaurant? Nobody at any tables! And the hosts back talking us. Well you are 15 minutes earlier she said. Why would you freaking say that to a customer? And she sent another hostess out and she said well you are early. Yeah we know it. We're 10 minutes now early. The economy is going down the pot. They're not hurting now but they will be hurting eventually. read more

Grimaldi's at San Tan Village in Gilbert is our favorite Tuesday date-night destination. The pizzas are great. We like adding onto whatever pizza we get (often "the Don"), ricotta cheese plus fresh basil at the end. Yum. We enjoy sitting at the bar, indoors or outside, always very accommodating, fun chatting with others at the bar, keeping an eye on a game on TV, and especially the half-off wine. The very best part of our evening is getting caught up with Danica, Grimaldi's super-great bartender whom we've enjoyed getting to know over the years. Grimaldi's is lucky to have her! read more

The pizza and food here is delicious! It is a little pricier than the norm but the food tastes fresh. The service is always great. The staff is regularly on point and attentive.

First time trying this spot. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend. The pizza was delicious. However it's the type of pizza that you have to eat right out of the oven. It gets cold very quickly. I will be sure to dine-in on my next visit. I ordered 2 large pizzas. The bbq chicken pizza was a crowd pleaser with my group. It's pricey but very good. The cheesecake was really good as well. read more

One of my favorite spots to wind down at after shopping in and around San Tan Village. I've been here a ton of times but most recently this weekend to cap off Black Friday weekend shopping. It was busy but we were seated in less than 10 minutes in their dog friendly patio which is shadesd and/or heated depending on the weather. We split a caprese appetizer and a 16 inch white pizza with several veggie toppies and it was deee-lish! Friendly service, hearty portions and delicious fresh pizza in an old New York atmosphere make Grimaldi's a go-to for my family! read more

To start this was our third trip to Grimaldi's and I'm always hesitant to leave a poor review, but dealing with this company has incredibly frustrating. First of all, when you call to place an order or if you just have a question it takes forever to get someone to answer the phone. The phone will ring a certain amount of times and then eventually it will hang up on you and you have to call back and try to get someone again.... Each of our three trips we had three of us calling multiple times to try to get through. Now. I personally don't mind placing an order online but they don't have the full menu available and there's no information on the website so if you have a question about ingredients or the pizza sizes or how many people something serves you have to call them to find out basic information that should already be provided on the website. I do have to say that ladies that have answered the phone are very nice and I appreciate that. Next, we you place and order us they tell you that your order pick up time is usually around 2 hours after the time your ordering, so at 5 pm we started calling, finally placed the order shortly after 5:40, then we told that the order pick up time was 7:30pm.....what?! Are you kidding me! Then when we arrived to pick up the order exactly at 7:30 I'm picking up a pizza that has been sitting and is cold. This is the bottom line....the food here just isn't good enough to go through this much trouble. Save yourself and order at Venezia's on Ray Road...no matter how busy they are your pizza will be ready in 30 minutes and their website works seamlessly for online ordering. One more thing, you should know Grimaldi's does have a nice outdoor bar that can be good if you go in the afternoon around 2 or 3pm. read more

Stopped in after my husband's baseball game around 7:30 pm. The place was packed even on a Sunday at this time. We had to wait about 15 minutes to be seated. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, she checked back often. We only ordered pizza this time, large original with sausage and mushrooms crispy. We always order crispy otherwise the middle always seems soggy. Most of the time it still comes out a little soggy in the middle but this time it was perfect. read more

Place was horrible, said it was done at 5:30 come at 5:25 and then I'm here till 6. Waiting, as an accommodation for the lateness they are offering people drinks, harms it even more making the wait longer then ever. Do not recommend this place unless time is on your side. read more
