Pizza was very good but kind of dissapointed there was no area for the pups/dogs. How can you advertise donatong to the shelter & pets welcome but no area for them. Makes no sense but over all its a great chill place Good food & drinks read more

Such a great concept for a restaurant!!! Met the cutest puppies and the food manages to hold up to the (adorable) expectations. Super satisfying vodka rigatoni! Nothing to really set it apart from others, but will hit the spot :) read more

Couldn't recommend this place more! The ambiance is casual and welcoming, yet elevated. Great for an evening date night or an easy midday lunch! We were lucky enough to be there on a Sunday when they brought rescue puppies over! So cute! Our server, Tess, was kind and very attentive. She had great recommendations, and we enjoyed everything we ordered from the menu! Can't beat the happy hour deals. Will for sure be coming back. read more

Came to try this place for the first time and it did not disappoint. Had cute Halloween decor and was very clean with a. Vibrant atmosphere. Got a pizza and did half and half and both were so yummy. So big for just one person and had lots of leftovers. Good HH too! Love that the proceeds go to puppies. Will definitely be back! read more

Pizza was so good!! The restaurant was pretty empty on a Monday around dinner time so we were seated super quickly and our food came out within 10 minutes. We wanted to try the happy hour but they did shift the times slightly so if ended at 5 PM instead of 6 PM. We ordered the Margherita and the chorizo pizzas (25% of proceeds go to a dog rescue center!!) and both were amazing. The crust was thin, chewy, fluffy, crispy, and flavorful. No notes for the crust. I did think it was slightly greasy but not enough to make me feel gross after eating. They have a small parking lot and some street parking so it wasn't too hard to find a spot. We also loved how you can see your pizza getting fired in the oven right in front of you! Ratings Margherita: 4.5/5 Chorizo: 4.5/5 read more

Wow, that's all...WOW!! I've passed this place sooooo many times and have never stopped, and now...I have been missing greatness! Sat at the bar, watched the Pizza Chefs toss dough and churn out Pizza after Pizza flawlessly. We purchased two, and the flavors are AMAZING. Great ambiance, they were hosting Trivia the night we were in!!! The service was quick, recommendations were fantastic, and the food was amazing. Moses & Marcelo the Pizza Chefs turned out a meaty pizza in seconds and the flavors were layered beautifully!! The oven is wood fired, and the edges are perfectly crisp. Ask for Jacob, he was an excellent server!!! Grade A+++++ read more

Really cute place with great fresh pizza! Their cesar salad was huge enough to share between 4 people, and had a great flavor. I was personally not a huge fan of the strawberry shortcake monthly dessert, but would definitely try something else next time. Really friendly staff and they donate money for each pizza sold to the dog rescue! Will definitely be returning! read more

Pizza was amazing. I have been in a gastronomic rut lately. So, I have been trying new resturants in Arizona. A native I am, but never really ventured out to new resturants. I highly recommend the food here. The pizza is wood fired, chewy and fresh. I ordered the pizza more, which is one with the meat. Amazing!!! I would so return to this resturant, and am in fact, planning another visit here soon. Service was great as well. Super attentive, and didn't have an empty drink very long. Awesome too, that they donate money for dogs. Would be great to add some cats in the mix, but I get it.​ read more

I love wood fired pizza with a little bit of char, but this one was just too burnt for me. I was really excited to try their happy hour because getting a pizza for $10 and a draft beer for $5 is an awesome deal. Half the edges and bottom of the crust were way too burnt. As far as the ambiance sitting at the bar is a great experience. The draft beer was ice cold and the staff was attentive which is exactly what you want for a nice happy hour. read more

Pizza To The Rescue - Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Honestly love the mission behind this place to provide dogs an opportunity to get adopted. Plus, I missed the opportunity to go here during happy hour to get a better deal. I ordered some food to hold me over while I waited for my to-go order. The garlic bread with parmesan was generous and tasty, but honestly, paying four dollars for sprinkled garlic and cheese is overkill. The Margherita Pizza and the Funghi Formaggi Pizza were mid. There were hardly any mushrooms on the Funghi Pizza, and the Margherita Pizza was just blah. The Penne Alla Vodka pasta helped, but overall, the price of these pizzas did not match the quality or flavor we were expecting. read more

A delicious pizza place that makes a positive impact on the lives of rescue dogs awaiting their forever homes. 25% of all proceeds from pizza sales goes directly to this local dog rescue, knowing that your meals make a difference. It's a no-brainer. Great happy hour. Filled inside and outside their great patio. 6 pm- 8 pm they showcase rescue puppies. Their pasta that I ordered was delicious and massive. My only gripe is that bread doesn't come with it so you have to pay for a side of focaccia bread. Again, it goes to puppies so I just bit the bullet. Service is great! read more

We definitely had a mixed experience at our dinner. We had set a reservation before coming and were sat right away. However it seemed they never told anyone we were sat so we waited over 30 minutes for someone to greet us. Once a waitress did come over for our order, we very rarely saw her throughout the meal. The food was good. Wood fired pizza is the best kind and they do a good job. We came at 6pm on purpose to see puppies and were bummed that there is only one dog at a time because so many people wanted to hold the one baby that we never got a chance. They were very kind to give us a cheesecake for how long we waited. We were all a bit thrown off that they put olive oil all over the cheesecake. We weren't fans but may be a vibe for someone else. read more

Me and my boyfriend have been to Pizza to the Rescue for many date nights, but tonight was our best experience yet!! Michelle was our server and she was so kind and attentive. The food is always delicious and consistent. We usually order the spicy rigatoni & diavola pizza to share. A bottle of sangiovese pairs perfectly! Michelle also treated us to a cheesecake on the house to bring home 25% pizza proceeds to Almost Home rescue is awesome, and they had the cutest puppy on the patio tonight. The restaurant is also decorated so perfectly for Halloween! We will be back again soon of course, only change is we will definitely be requesting Michelle as our server from now on!! read more

I appreciate donating to a great cause, but the amount of gnats/fruit flies inside at the corner booth/table we sat as was ridiculous. There were 10 or so on the way and plenty flying around. Guarding your food and drink while trying to eat is not fun. Carne amore pizza had good flavor but could have used another couple of minutes in the over. Weird it was burnt in some spots on the crust but not others and the bottom was floppy. Others enjoyed their pasta. We all agreed that it was not worth fighting gnats the whole dinner, even when we moved one table over it did not help. It makes you worry about other things. Doubt we would come back. read more

Went here for Valentine's Day, showed up 7:30ish with no reservation. We sat at the bar and ordered a drink and about 20 minutes later got a seat! It was starting to die down a little by then. We tried the prefixe menu, one appetizer the meatballs, two entrees the chorizo pizza and wild mushroom risotto, and one dessert the basque cheesecake for $60 per couple, pretty nice! The app was for my boyfriend since I don't eat red meat or gluten. He enjoyed it! Pretty large portion. I loved my mushroom risotto, so creamy and rich and cheesy but not heavy. The olive oil on and around it added deep complexity and buttery-ness that was addicting. The mushrooms looked different than in other Yelp pictures and I would've liked the other mushrooms better I think. These were more meaty and thick and the texture can be off for me, but that's a personal preference. I cut up the mushrooms and it added nice umami flavor. Some added protein would've been good, it was already $24. I didn't finish it though, saved room for dessert. Overall a top risotto I've ever had. My boyfriend's pizza was way too spicy for him lol. He said his lips were burning, he can't do spice and didn't realize it would be that spicy. He ate 1.5 slices then asked if he could get the margherita instead and they made him a new pizza it was very nice! He simply couldn't eat it so we really appreciated it. He liked the new pizza and we love how it's made in a wood fired oven! I'll come back to try the gluten free pizza since it's a homemade crust and they have a separate oven for it! The cheesecake had a fruity orange taste to it? Maybe it was the mesquite honey. Wasn't expecting that! The olive oil contrasted nicely with the honey and cheesecake though, and I love the gluten free option. I love cheesecake and enjoyed it! My boyfriend likes just cheesecake no extra flavors but happily still ate half. Great service, super nice! Food comes out fast. Elevated atmosphere with the pizza oven in the front! Cute place read more

Was seeing this place all over my Instagram and had to come out and try it for myself. What could be better than pizza and puppies?!? We ordered the Margherita Pizza w/extra sauce, this was truly our favorite, the pizza was delicious and a great size. We also ordered the spicy rigatoni the presentation was beautiful however I do feel this lacked some flavor. To finish we ordered their version of the pizookie, we both feel that it wasn't the best, it wasn't the ooey gooey cookie we were hoping for but not bad either. Service was great it was busy but our server did a great job handling both tables inside and on the patio. And their mission is so wonderful, we loved getting to seeing the cutest adoptable puppies and we even stopped at their rescue after also. Will definitely be back to enjoy some more pizza and get all the puppy snuggles. read more

This place is fantastic! I'm an animal lover, so I really appreciate that they are partnered with a rescue and that part of the proceeds from this restaurant directly support the rescue. They even have a dog-friendly patio, which makes it even better. They also have an incredible happy hour daily from 2 PM-5 PM. I ordered the meatball sandwich for just $10, and the bread on that sandwich is absolutely to die for. I also ordered a pepperoni pizza with basil oil for $10 as well, which felt like such a steal. I had a well vodka cranberry for $6, which was exactly what you'd expect--simple and fine. The food is what really stands out at this place. It's great food while also supporting a fantastic cause. It's about a 40-minute drive for me, but I've already been twice in the last month. Service can be a little spotty depending on how busy they are, but overall it's totally worth it. read more

Omg brah. Imma be thinkin about this pizza when I'm back in Portland (where it's not 5000 degrees). Saw these guys on soc media and was kinda surprised how nice the decor was. Nice but casual enough that I felt comfortable. Pizza was F'n FIRE. Service was friendly and they refilled my Diet Coke without me even asking. Wanna go back for a sando but I'm out of time. See ya next time I'm in the valley. A+++++ read more

Puppies, pizza and pasta?? What more could you ask for? As a rescue mom this place makes my heart so happy and full. The pizza was amazing, and the pasta was to die for. We had the spicy rigatoni and a few different pizzas, all of which really exceeded expectations. The Diet Coke is also CRISPY. So good. Meatballs were insanely good as well.

Love this restaurant's whole concept of how if you order a pizza - it helps the dog rescue! The Cacio e Pepe was really good. As was the dessert. Had the mushroom pizza, it was good. Not the best pizza but it'll do. Just a bit doughy and burnt in some spots. Service was friendly. Though, be ready for a wait if you didn't make reservations. We thankfully got a spot at the bar. Also, parking lot fills up fast so consider parking on the side streets! read more

Best happy hour in Phoenix especially in this economy? I believe it's everyday from 2-5pm. The happy hour menu includes 10 pizzas, $10 Ceasars salad, $10 calzone, and $10 pasta! Got the $10 pepperoni pizza and it was so good and shareable along with the vodka sauce pasta. Both were really good. Pro tip order the hot honey for the pepperoni pizza. It's honestly deals and they also bring out puppies that you can adopt. Even better proceeds from the restaurant go to their animal rescue! read more

Awesome place with an awesome partnership with the local dog rescue. We got the meatballs and a pizza. The meatballs were really delicious, I liked the toasted bread as well to make a little bite. The pizza was pretty good, it has a nice wood fired flavor. Tons of toppings and it's big enough to share between 2 people especially if you start with an appetizer. Service was good, the food took a little while to get out and we went at 115 and it was basically empty. The Happy hour deal is great, we'll have to do that next time read more

Alexis was our server for my first of likely many visits. The unassuming industrial style building belies the cute ambiance of the interior. It's very well decorated and the multi color mosaic tables are neat - with comfy chairs, too. So how is the food? Service and food were great! We split the Spicy Diavola pizza and really enjoyed the flavor and thin crust. Pizzas are cooked in a large pizza oven by the bar. Excellent crust texture and good ratio of ingredients to dough. I love that 25% of proceeds help fund Almost There rescue next door. The motto is Eat Pizza, Save Puppies. I'll be back for more! They even have puppies in a front patio play area at some times of the day. Even if you're not a sucker for puppy snuggles (and you should love puppy snuggles!), go for the food! You would never guess this place had such a cute interior and covered patio. You can even bring your own dog to the patio area. Definitely check this out. read more

the inside is cute and menu is tasty too. I wish there were a little more options for vegetarian but I loved what I got! the fungi mushroom pizza with balsamic and peppers was so good. portions are generous with enough for 2 people to split, or you can take the leftovers home in a pizza box. They were flexible with adding the chili oil sauce to mine because i like spicy. it was my friends birthday so they brought out a free cookie skillet dessert. service for a little slow at the end towards closing, but they were really nice! read more

Pizza To The Rescue - mushroom funghi pizza - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Here's another Yelp! first for me... This review is for two business who work closely together for an awesome cause. If you've never heard of Pizza to the Rescue, you should. And if you don't know about their affiliation with the dog rescue Almost There, you should. From what I understand, Almost There came first and it sits behind the pizzeria across the parking lot. For our daughter's 16th birthday, we took her and ten friends to do puppy yoga. It was awesome and the girls had a great time. Plus the instructor Meg was super chill and the volunteers made sure the experience was enjoyable. Then we walked across the parking lot for an equally amazing lunch. Pizza to the Rescue isn't an ordinary pizza joint. Think elevated. The eclectic interior is hard to describe. It's got a mid-century modern vibe with a mix of boho and tiki lounge. Sitting at the bar, my wife and I took it all in, admiring the decor, sipping our adult beverages, and allowing the girls to celebrate behind us on the patio. The service was excellent. Our server, the bar tender, the busser, and others all worked together as a team. It was also a sight to see. Now the food was unexpectedly good. Seriously, our roasted artichoke heart appetizer belongs in a fine dining restaurant. And so does the pizza. The variety and creativity is impressive, and the pizzas were delicious! The best part of this is the fact that 25% of Pizza to the Rescue's proceeds go to Almost There. Do yourself a favor and go try the pizza. And maybe pick out a puppy to take home with your leftovers. This review was generated entirely by my brain and not AI. read more

One of the best happy hours in Phoenix! The margherita pizza is my favorite thing here and the rigatoni with vodka sauce is solid. All of the food is $10 during happy hour and the drinks are a good price as well. Parking can be a bit tight and service can be a little slow during happy hour, especially on Friday afternoons and weekends. I'm excited to see that they are now open on Sundays. read more

Before diving into my concern, I want to preface my experience by sharing that the pizza, specifically the spicy diavola was flavorful. Additionally, ordered two Wendy's Caesars salads. The ambiance was nice and the service was good. I want to focus on the salads. As said, we ordered two of them and ate about half of each. Combined the leftovers in a container and took the rest home. Now this is the hard part to believe. As I was finishing my leftovers today, I found a metal object in my salad. It looks like a bolt and the metal coating easily rubs off. I didn't see anything on the container when we were given it so we suspect that it may have been in the salad. Thankfully we saw it but definitely was a freak situation. read more

What could be better than eating pizza with dogs for a good cause?! This heartwarming establishment donates some of their pizza sales to the dog shelter nearby and has a dog friendly patio. The inside consists of a nice bar with a large TV and a wood fired oven in the corner. The wood fired thin crust pizza was exceptional and many had unique flavor combinations that worked well. The meatballs were good, but I would recommend trying another pizza instead. We didn't try the pasta, but it looked delicious and I will definitely be back to try. The staff were all extremely friendly and accommodated to our odd party size. Overall, a lovely place with great vibes and great food. read more

We came for the dogs, but we stayed for the food! Obviously, this place is very unique. It is amazing what they do for the rescue and supporting them is an easy decision. It is fun to see the adoptable dogs so that was a huge reason why we chose to come here. However, we were incredibly please by the food and drinks. the pizza is so good! This is great date night spot - we love it because we can bring our son and not feel like we are disturbing anyone. We will definitely be returning! read more

Huge fan of this place and their style. From their outdoor patio to their gigantic 10ft door and ginormous golden doorknobs, rustic wood, and goblin woodfired pizza oven - to their outstanding mission to rescue the pups and give them all homes while feeding the locals their traditional Italian fare. I LOVED sitting at the bar even! Watching the staff make their globs of dough and throw it around, rough-housing each other and making fun of their pizzas or creating cocktails behind the bar, even if I was tucked in the corner because we had no rezzie for Restaurant Week - I could not complain at all about a single thing. Pizza was delicious, wine was yummy pairing to it all, and their beet salad was beautifully plated. Although we didn't get to try the short rib lasagna because the couple next to us got the LAST SERVING JUST BEFORE WE ORDERED (BUMMER!!!!), their traditional lasagna was also very yummy and served extra hot. The meatballs were also a very decent portion and obviously I had to try their tiramisu. . . ok... CAN I JUST SAY LESS OR MORE ABOUT THE TIRAMISU? so, basically I had a shouting match about it later when someone had tried to eat it without my permission XP Hopefully that sums up how much I appreciated their desserts. Also, PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT THE RESCUE BEFORE OR AFTER DINING, OR WHILE YOU WAIT! They have the cutest shop and you can even play with the pups and look through the whole book of pups they have for adoption and read all about them. They have special events as well all throughout the month and even online events! read more

Located downtown on Indian School and 26th street. This restaurant delivers more than I expected. The food was really good and the wait staff were amazing.

Calzone that was huge, 10 bucks. $5 wine, $3 beer and $10 draft flight! Very nice interior space, great outdoors. Late in happy hour they bring rescue pups outside to possibly adopt!

First off, major props for the concept. A pizza place that helps dog shelters? That's an automatic "good human" badge in my book. Why not feel good about carbs when there are happy pups involved? Now, the food... because that's where things get a little ruff lol I grabbed a pepperoni pizza and the spicy rigatoni. First, the Pepperoni Pizza ($22), I expected this to be good, Instead, I got a lot of crust and a slight sprinkle of cheese. The cheese was playing hide-and-seek, and sadly, it won. Next, the Spicy Rigatoni wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't the "OMG, you have to try this"....especially for ($30) I respect any business that gives back to the community. But if we're talking strictly about the food-to-price ratio... it's a little hard to justify. Go check them out and decide for yourself. Worst case? You get an average meal and get to pet a dog. That's still a win. read more
