    Spicy Chicken Sausage & Cheese Sauce Hatch Chili Mac n Cheese
    Christine B.

    Sauce is one of my son's favorite spots and we've grown to like it too. The people at the register are always friendly. Our go-to pizza is the Mozzarella, Fontina and Basil - simple but delicious. My husband had the Spicy Chicken Sausage and Hatch Green Chili Mac n Cheese and liked that too. The two suggestions I have for Sauce to work on are: 1) They always bring my family's entrees out at different times. Sometimes the last person is waiting up to ten minutes for theirs. It makes for awkward dining. 2) This location is small and crowded, and we're happy that they are popular. But there are always several tables that haven't been cleared off and cleaned. They need to do a better job of turning over tables. Other than that, we've had a good experience dining here.

    Kids cheese pizza. Super cheesy!!

    It's been a while since I've stepped foot into this Sauce location. I was craving pasta, and wanted something on the cheap. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sausage w/ hatch chilè and it did not disappoint! Perfect portions, saucy & flavorful..it definitely hit the spot! We also had the cheese pizza & pasta/marinara sauce. The cheese pizza excellent..perfectly flaky thin crust & also good size for being a small. They have about 5 different pastas to choose from, along with a good variety of pizza options, salads and more. They also serve wine to pair with your meals & have a great summer meal & wine deal going on right now. Service was good & restaurant was clean. Perfect spot if you're looking for something quick, casual & cheap!

    Sauce is one of my favorites! I think they have great customer service, all their employees are always so well put together and friendly! I order a salad that isn't on the menu anymore... And I know who the new employees are that take my order when I go in, because they always look at me with a blank stare for a moment! But they always find someone to help them learn how to enter it! I love that they give local brewing companies a chance here, they have the IPA Jungle Jack tropical hazy they are from Chandler! If you like tropical flavor this is a beer you should try! The food is delicious, we love the Salads, Lasagna, Pizza,Mac and cheese, and their bruschetta!!! The passion fruit black tea is my go to tea at Sauce!

    We came here for my sisters birthday dinner. It was everyone's first time, aside from my parents. We all explored the menu and then went to order. The guy at the register was not super friendly. We had asked how big the pizzas were and if they could feed 2 people. He said he didn't know and it was just a regular pizza. So we never got an answer on that. We ended up just ordering a few pizzas to serve our table. For anyone curious, the pizzas are 12in and can be shared if you don't eat too much or get something small too. My cousin ordered his own meal at the counter and the guy mentioned they had no change after taking the money into the register. So my cousin awkwardly said to keep it as a tip because he couldn't get anything back. We got table numbers and waited for our food to be brought. The lady who brought our food was not very friendly either. She never smiled just kinda rushed on asking who's food it was. We mistakenly said it wasn't anyones when it was my cousins separate order. He went to the counter to get it back were he was handed his food with attitude. The service had a sudden change after that and when the lady came back with our other orders she seemed nicer. The food itself was okay, I got a panini which was pretty good. However, my chips were too hard for me to enjoy and the meatball I got was chewy and weird textured. The pizzas seemed to be decent. Everyone ate and said it was okay but they would rather have gone somewhere else like MOD. Overall the experience was okay and a bit disappointing. The staff was not knowledgeable with the questions we had and they started off with attitude or just sour moods, which I can understand in a busy setting but it is a turn off. I don't think the food stood out for me to ever return but it's not a bad place for those wanting to try.

    Two thin crust burnt  and not edible.

    Have you ever stalked a food truck like it was your ex on Instagram, hoping and praying they would…read morefinally settle down and open a permanent location? And then imagine finding out that said location is INSIDE an incredible brewery. Baby... when I tell you I almost ascended. Hello? Excuse me? Did the pizza and beer gods personally hear my dramatic little prayers? Did they not only bless us with this heavenly combo, but ALSO decide to rotate different pizza specials every single week just to keep me emotionally unstable? Because THEY. DID. I genuinely cannot stop talking about this place. At this point my friends are one more pizza rant away from blocking my number, but I refuse to apologize. Every single time I go, I convince myself this is my favorite pizza... and then next week they drop another masterpiece and suddenly I'm questioning everything I thought I knew about myself. What makes this place so ridiculously good is that they are fearless. They're out here using sauces as bases that other pizza places would clutch their pearls over. Ingredients that sound chaotic on paper somehow turn into the most beautiful, life-altering bite you've ever had. It's giving culinary drag performance. Bold. Unexpected. A little dramatic. Perfect execution. And the brewery vibe? Elite. The energy is fun, relaxed, a little loud in the best way, and honestly the perfect setting to destroy an entire pizza while pretending you'll "just have one slice." Lies. All lies. The beer pairings somehow make every flavor pop even more, which feels scientifically unfair. Also can we normalize restaurants understanding that pizza should be FUN? Because this place gets it. They're creative without being pretentious, experimental without losing quality, and somehow every pie still feels comforting and familiar while also making you gasp like you just heard fresh gossip. At this point I don't even ask what the special is anymore. I just trust them blindly like a toxic relationship, except this one actually delivers happiness. 10/10. Life-changing. Emotionally supportive pizza.

    If you're in downtown Mesa and you're looking to grab a bite to eat and maybe have a drink or two,…read moreyou should consider swinging by Goat and Ram This spot has all the small batch brewery vibes, but is also a very popular pizza parlor. Located on the main drag of downtown Mesa you can eat inside or on the patio. There aren't servers, instead, you order at the front desk. The menu has a variety of options, mostly pizza (both classics and signature pies). There is also a bar area where you can grab a pint or two of local brews The interior was electric with people enjoying pizza, locations, watching the Olympics, and just unwinding for the day. We ordered a salad and a couple of pizzas. The salad came out first, and the pizzas weren't far behind Being a self-proclaimed pizza snob, the pizza was fine. It wasn't overly flavorful, and it didn't blow me away, but it also didn't disappoint. The salad was LOADED with toppings, and I was somewhat impressed there. Unfortunately, polling the group, the beer was slightly lackluster. But again, this spot is a fun vibe and is great if you want to hang out for a bit and enjoy a brewery/pizza parlor type atmosphere Some tips: When you're done with your drinks and meal consider walking down the Main Street and stopping by one of their many bars, museums, and other eateries There isn't a lot of parking off the main drag, but we were fortunate enough to find parking on a few different occasions Cheers!

We made reservations at Pizzicata in anticipation of both Valentine's Day and the need to re-carb after the event. We arrived at the host stand a few minutes before our reservation, but were told that there were no indoor tables available. If we wanted to be seated immediately, we'd have to accept an outdoor table, even though we had a reservation for indoor seating. We opted to wait because the weather was chilly by Arizona standards, and we were still recovering from the race. A couple of minutes later, another hostess approached us and asked whether we had reservations and were waiting. When we confirmed, she immediately left to find us a table, and we were seated very shortly afterwards. I thought very little of this until the owner came to our table and apologized for the issue. He was kind and sincere in his regret for the situation and was excited to tell us about the staff and the food. We were wildly appreciative of this attention to detail and service! We shared the potato croquettes, and they were everything I was hoping they'd be and more. (Light lore: I chose Pizzicata because I saw a picture of these croquettes on their online menu.) For dinner, my husband had the Travolta pizza, and I had the gnocchi gorgonzola. We both did that thing where we sat back in our chairs, breathed deeply, and declared, "oh dang, that's goooood." We were both so happy with our choices - I can't speak to the pizza, but that was some of the best gnocchi I've ever had. Pillowy soft in this perfectly nutty, cheesy, creamy sauce. *chef's kiss* For dessert, we shared the tiramisu, which was perfect in every way. If we weren't already walking funny because of the race, we'd have still waddled out of Pizzicata from happy fullness. The service, the food, the vibe - we're here for it and we'll be back the next time we're in Mesa.

She immediately told us the kitchen would be closing in 10 minutes (we arrived at 7:19 and they close at 8), which already made the experience feel a bit rushed. We ordered a deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza, a Caesar salad, fries, and water. The salad and fries came out quickly and were good, but we waited until 7:52 for the pizza. During that time, several staff members including what seemed to be a manager, were loudly yelling back and forth across the restaurant about staffing and schedules. With no music or TV volume, it was impossible not to hear, and it felt very unprofessional. Meanwhile, our water glasses sat empty. I had to ask three separate times for refills, and the third time I actually had to get up and find our server at the bar, where she was sitting, still discussing the schedule. When the pizza finally arrived, it was delicious. But basic things like Parmesan and pepper weren't offered. I had to flag someone down to ask. And even though we'd just received our food, the lights on the patio were turned off while we were eating, and we were brought a box very quickly, which felt like a not-so-subtle hint to leave. Overall, the food was good, but the customer service and atmosphere really took away from what should have been a nice birthday dinner for my daughter. Very disappointing experience.

The day we had gone in, they had a few sandwich and pasta options available to choose from. My husband got the spicy Italian sausage ziti pasta dish and I ordered the chicken parm sandwich. The sandwich came out first; I really liked the marinara sauce on it. It was a bit difficult to eat but exactly what I was expecting and wanting. The pasta took some time to come out, but that was fine. The sauce was like a pesto vodka sauce, very rich & filling, and also tasty. We were both only able to eat half of each dish since they were both large dishes. I believe they only serve pasta dishes on certain days, so if they have them on the menu, definitely consider ordering one of those. They seem to have sandwiches everyday. It's a pretty small place with a few tables & some bar type seating. It gets pretty busy around lunch time, so plan accordingly. We'll be back again to try other items!

It was quite heavy on the breading and there was a generous portion of cheese and sauce. We asked if we could substitute a salad in place of the spaghetti that it came with and our server did indicate they offer garlic sautéed spinach or broccoli so we selected the broccoli. She did not inform us that it came at an extra charge, though we would have still been happy to pay it, it's just nice to be informed ahead of time of any additional cost. I definitely recommend the cannolis as the filling was thick and creamy and not overly sweet and the entire shell was dipped in chocolate!
