Delicious. As good as the other location that is now gone and this place was worth the longer drive. Got a pepperoni and sausage. Great taste. Fast and friendly service. Some bar seats and plenty of other tables in this location. Looked like a nice place for a beer and a slice. read more

We have been back things have improved since the last time we were here They don't serve wings on the pizza pan and they have less sauce but its a better experience over all . read more

Let's keep it ah Buck.....it was my second time here and the LAST!!! I seen sooo many health code violations when I was there waiting for my 25 minute long spaghetti and meatballs to go order from watching the "cooks" raw dog bare hand all sorts of every thing in the kitchen from the delivery guy holding frozen chicken wings multiple times and then touching every thing else in the kitchen even his hair..the kid making the square pizza was also doing the same all bare handed the guy making my spaghetti was wearing a dirty baseball hat with sunglasses also touching every thing I have not saw 1 person wash their hands yet...now the 2 girls up front is saw count cash split tips with her dad who's in the "kitchen " and hands him cash he folds it into his pocket and goes back to touching food no washing of hands like cash is clean or something I seen both girls clean tables then go pick order up food to bring to a table no washing of hands....look by the 25 minutes waiting on my food not only did I loose my appetite I dam near wanted my money back.....let's talk about the long awaited spaghetti n meatballs that I even paid extra for a half of meatball..it sucked water in the bottom of the pan and not enough sauce and 3 halfs of solid meatball. They claim to make the meatballs in-house how can they be this bad? Subways are better and the garbage bread it came with was soggy af so a total waste. read more

Best Pizza Ever!!! So incredibly yummy!!! The wings are great too! Keep it up guys and thanks so much!!

Picked up some take out from Raffaele's Pizza tonight, and wow! A pepperoni/sausage pizza, wings and a meatball sandwich w/melted mozzarella. This place has much history, the other location was started in the 70's at 19th Ave and Glendale Ave. Family owned and operated, there are new owners after all these years, but I can tell you they have stayed true to the tradition, the recipes, the service, the food is as delicious as it always was, service friendly, polite, and fast. I cannot recommend them enough to you, New York Style Pizza at its finest, call for take out, you can eat in their nice atmosphere, and I think they deliver also. Try them out, you won't be sorry!!Thank you Raffaeles!!! read more

Very good NY style pizza. Not the best, but pretty damn good. They charge a service charge maybe because I was part of a group. Our server was friendly and quick. Kind of reminded me of a sports bar feel. The sicilian slice looked good. I'll have to try their other location that's closer to me. read more

This place has some solid potential, but today's visit just left me feeling meh. It wasn't the worst yet definitely not the best. The location is on the smaller side, but holds a decent size bar with beer on tap, a pool table and some high and low top tables. We came in around noon to a completely empty restaurant. A server came out and greeted us soon after but she seemed less than thrilled to be there or help us..you choose which. We quickly looked over the menu and chose a slice and salad and a deep dish slice and six wings. Both came with drinks. Prices are decent. I was instantly bummed when my salad came out. It was iceberg lettuce in a paper bowl with a few think cucumber pieces and tiny bit of tomato. Boring. Best part of it was the ranch. My slice was ok crispy crust but soon soggy. Flavor was decent. My husband said wings were good and not over sauced. Deep dish so so. A gentleman I'm guessing the owner had brought out our food and was friendly and thanked us for coming in. Definitely more friendly than the girl who originally helped us. All in all I don't think we'd be back, but glad we tried it. read more

The best staff. The best pizza and wings. But let's go back to talking about the pizza !!!! Like the og good kind !! The place is fun for kids and easy to park and never ever disappoint!!! read more

Well to start - the delivery guy left the pizza on the ground in fron of my door!! Its food on the ground. Not a good thing. Then the cheese slid and was in the box, kinda messy. As for the pizza, it was ok. The dough/crust was good, the sausce was bland and tasteless. After a bit of doctoring up is ended up better. But it was the fact that it was left on the ground - I was right at the door just unlocking it if he had waited like 30 seconds!! read more

OVERPRICED : the food is technically good, but that's just it: It's good and not great. A place I definitely won't be thinking about going back to. The main reason for it, the food is ridiculously overpriced. You want good wings? Go to Crazy Mikes Wings. That place is pricey but worth it!! read more

Food was nothing special. Not worth 50 dollars for wings and pizza. Service was quick, but I won't be spending money here again

First time here. Nice little pizza joint. Seating area with a bar and pool table. Ordered the pizza and wings and an antipasto salad. I thought the pizza and wings were pretty good. Wings were supposed to be medium but were more like mild. The salad was good and filling. The service was really good at the beginning but when we were done, we had to get our own check and boxes. I don't know why but we were completely ignored. I would have given this place a higher score if not for that issue. The food itself was pretty good and was close to home so I'm sure we'll be back. Hopefully the service will be better next time. read more

Great place! I've been going to their Phoenix location since the 90s, so when they opened this one a few minutes from my house, I was thrilled. Superb food and service. Went there last night with a friend and had a good time eating amazing pizza and watching the World Series game on their huge TV screens. I highly recommend Raffaele's! read more

First time coming in today, was great! The service was amazing, such sweet girls helping me out today! The food was also great! The crust never got soggy, i really enjoyed both pizza and wings! Great spot in glendale, will definitely come back! read more

They were very nice. Kiddo and I picked up food. They were pretty fast. This place was recommended to me by a friend. I was skeptical as I always am about trying new pizza places. Kiddo wanted to try it. We bought an appetizer combo with wings. The fried mushrooms & Zucchini & mozzarella sticks were basic but tasty. I'm pretty sure they were standard frozen items, but it's not a big deal bc I knew what I was ordering. The wings were meaty, so they weren't tiny wings you'd get at some restaurants. I was going to order the hot wings but the girl was like, are you sure, they're pretty spicy? So I got medium. They weren't spicy for me at medium but they were still good. Dad joke- "medi-yum". We ordered the raffaele's special, 18". Bruh. 18" seemed smaller in my brain. It was good though. It's basically a combo, but the crust was nice. It had a good chew to it, and it wasn't too thick. The sauce had a good flavor to it, and there was a good amount of toppings. No food pics this time around bc we were hungry and just started eating. Definitely coming back here. read more

The Pizza is Great. The service is awesome as the staff is constantly asking if I need an item or refills.

If you want burned bottom pizza, that's not cooked all the way, and RAW FLOUR all over the bottom that tastes like chalk. Order from here. Then the "owner" can tell you its new york style, and it's supposed to be like that. No, Sir. New York style pizza is not burned, raw, and covered in flour. read more

I talked my husband into trying somewhere (in person ) new. We were very impressed. The pizza came out so hot and crispy just the way it should. The wings were very good also. I highly recommend trying them out. read more

We placed an online order for delivery for the Sicilian specialty and accidentally ordered half pepperoni and half cheese as the online system did something weird where I only ordered pepperoni on half. We also got 25 wings but had to pay extra to do more than one flavor (we did medium and lemon pepper). It was over $100 which is crazy for pizza and wings and while the food was okay, it wasn't worth $100. I wouldn't order from here again if we are in the area in the future. read more

Best pizza spot in the Glendale area if you ask me. And Raffael, don't listen to those people who like gross doughy pizza! That crispy bottom is part of what makes it great read more

I have tried many pizza places and this place has been the best. I have been coming since the day it has opened and been coming almost every week. Their pizza is fantastic and I love their wings! Their wings are amazing and huge. I usually get their golden medium sauce which has a bit of heat and sweetness to it. If you're wanting pizza or just wings, I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Just love it when I want a new york pizza. Gobs of cheese, the right amount of sauce, and the perfect dough.

We saw this place in passing and just had to try it. We are always looking for new (to us) pizza and wing restaurants. Upon stepping in, we were greeted immediately and a young girl (probably about 14) waited on our table. She was sweet just seemed too young. She had AirPods in and I could hear that she was listening to something while talking to us. I can't say I'm a fan of that from a customer service standpoint. Otherwise, we had some questions about the menu and she was knowledgeable and even gave us some suggestions which we highly appreciated never having been there before. We ordered pizza and wings. The pizza was good. Nice and crispy but not over cooked. The wings were also nice and crispy! However, they were super tiny! So, we aren't likely to return but overall our experience was pretty pleasant. read more

I IS LOVE THIS PLACE! Gluten free wings are the beat I have ever had. My family loves their pizza and if your from the east coast you have to try it. Perfect NY style pies. The owner is dedicated and is almost always there. The staff are happy and courteous. It feels like the pizza place from my hometown. So warm and welcoming. XL two topping pizza and 24 wings runs about $50 and let me tell you the XL pizza is huge. Don't take my word for it, go check it out. Make it a date night and stop by Trilogy hookah too!!! read more

Pizza and wings are amazing. My daughter is addicted to their wings, and that says something, as she is picky! This has become our regular Tuesday night pick up dinner! read more

This is by far the best pizza I have had in Phoenix. Every single time we get a pizza at Rafaeles, either take out or dining in, it's perfect every time! The consistency in this pizza is what blows me away. Most places end up either too oily or floppy. Raffaeles always make their pizza with no flop just the right amount of sauce and everything is very fresh. If you have Tue ability to dine in stop by because it doesn't get any better then right out of the oven. I won't eat pizza anywhere else! read more

I went in to pick up my pizza and I was appalled. No one in here was wearing a mask. Not front of the house, not back of the house. Not patrons who weren't eating. The owner was socializing at the bar with patrons, respecting NO social distancing. I was so glad that Raffs opened near my new house, we went to the Phoenix location all the time. Unfortunately we will not be back. read more

Their thin crust pepperoni and mushroom pizza and the Stromboli are my go to and they never disappoint! Friendly staff and a fun environment. read more

I was happy to see a new pizza place open up in the neighborhood but was quickly disappointed. First, I paid $28 for a medium 2 topping pizza and small order of wings (I believe it was only 6). The pizza was completely flavorless... the toppings, sauce and crust were all very bland. The wings were very dry and inedible. Most of the food was thrown out. It also bothered me to see none of the staff wearing masks during COVID. Hanging them around your ears or throat doesn't count. None of the tables were marked off for social distancing and all 10 of the customers who were in there were all crammed into their "bar" section behind a pony wall. This establishment doesn't care about their patrons, only about making their money. I'll take my business elsewhere read more

Recently went to this pizza place over the weekend. Music was VERY LOUD! Pizza is fine. Wasn't very busy on a Saturday night, not certain what that says. Would I go back? Possibly read more

I am a vegetarian, and it is almost always a challenge to find something nutritious and good to eat. So my husband (non-vegetarian) want to eat out it can be a nuisance. Not at Raffaeles Pizza! While there was not necessarily a whole vegetarian meal on the menu, the very friendly and kind owner offered to create and make me a vegetable lasagna, loaded with vegetables, and a huge serving as well. This was a takeout order and I could not be more pleased. I am so grateful and appreciative of the fabulous customer service and the enthusiastic willingness to accomadate! My husband and I both enjoyed our meal thoroughly. Many thanks to the kind owner of Raffaeles Pizza! read more

Have been going to the location on 19th Ave for the past 30 years - so excited when I realized they opened a location down the street. Got a couple of slices from the lunch menu this afternoon. Brought back so many memories -- incredible pizza and such friendly, welcoming service!! Dyourself a favor and get yourself a taste of true NY pizza! Just went back on Thursday afternoon - wonderful Customer service and incredible pizza, meatballs and to-go order -- thank you as always for doing such a great job!! read more

I've been going to Rafael's since they opened in 74. I even worked for the electrical contractor that did the original wiring. The food is always spot on. I would even travel from my house at 67th and Olive, to pickup food. Now I have deliveries. My favorites iare a large pepperoni and extra meatball with extra cheese.... and the meatball sandwich. read more
