    Quinoa, Beet & Arugula, side of Spicy Chicken Sausage & Cheese Sauce
    Erica J.

    I live laugh love this place. I come here at least once or twice a week. Always leaving with a happy tummy full of yummy food. always affordable, always fresh. Never any complaints. I've had a lot of great memories here, alone, with Bestie, and always make me feel good being here. whenever someone asks me "where do you wanna go eat" while in tempe, i always say "sauce!!" if you're debating on going here, the answer is absolutely. I love this place with my heart and soul. I would die for this place yummyummyummy

    Sauce Pizza was so amazing ! The food was fresh and full of flavor, especially the pizza. The mac and cheese always gives me nostalgia from my childhood. The real highlight was our server, Kaytlynn--she was friendly, attentive, and made my experience even better. Great food and great service--I'll definitely be back! The photo I took was blurry because I was just too excited to try it !!

    Salmon & Kale- SKIP it.

    I needed something fast, convenient, and on the healthier side- this place worked great for all of those reasons! I was on foot and stopped in here before seeing a movie and spent about 30 minutes overall...super convenient! Prices are decent & portions are a good size. I can't speak for their pizza but the fall salad we tried was a hit! Tons of veggies, great flavor, very fresh. We also tried the kale Caesar with salmon. The salmon was so underwhelming- please do yourself a favor and skip it! Absolutely no flavor, the portion size was sad. It came shredded and looked as if it came from a can? Yikes. The salads came with a piece of bread- we weren't fans. Bread was bland unfortunately. Parking in this area is very scarce. Definitely more convenient if you don't have a vehicle and just staying in the area. This is a order at the counter and get a number kind of place. Plenty of seating inside and out. They have a cute patio when the weather is nice. Recommend sitting outside! Lots of people in the area so great for people watching. They don't have a full bar- just wine and beer. Keep in mind this place is our convenience! Service was friendly and quick! I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again but I would if a time crunch was of the essence.

    Finally, I had time to dine in. It was comfortable and relaxing enough to enjoy my meal in the restaurant. The food was great and tasty. Staff was friendly and welcoming. :)

    As an avid pasta lover I'm going to be a pretty harsh grader on this. The atmosphere of Sauce is really nice and I enjoy that it's one of the places where you order at the front and then can go sit. I will say that the quantity is pretty large for most items, I just still think the price is a little on the higher side for it not being an official sit down restaurant. Is it the most amazing Italian food I've ever had, not personally, but it's still an awesome place to go i with larger groups.

    Easily the best restaurant I have been to in my life! The staff treated me like a god and there wasn't a single rat in the building. 100/1

    Who doesn't love a good pizza. Sauce offers 3 different crust types and lots of topping options. The pizza came out quick and was delicious!

    Good location in downtown Tempe right by Mill ave. They have a good selection of pizzas / calzones, salads, pasta, etc. I got the broccoli chicken pasta which was pretty good. The cheese sauce they use is delicious. However it was sorta pricey ($14) considering the fact that there was only a few small pieces of chicken and broccoli compared to the amount of pasta. They do give free bread + butter. I'd come back here if I were in the area!

    Great pizza spot to beat the heat and have a bottle of wine. There are some great restaurants around the Tempe area, and Mill Avenue, that serve local beer and American fare. As well as some great Mexican spots. But this place should be talked about for the quality pizza and wine offerings. We went in expecting just to get a pizza to go, but the salads looked great, they offered a nice kids menu for our two year old, and we decided to halt on the beer and try a bottle of wine. They do have some affordable options, that are perfect for two but obviously you need to finish them in the store before you leave. The staff was very friendly and helpful in getting everything sorted out. They were a little stingy on the extra bread, but we continued to ask for more and got what we wanted. The pizza in my opinion was great. We went with the meat heavy style, and it was very good. We went with a thicker crust after reading some reviews that the thinner crust with a little too thin. The kids loved her Mac n cheese pasta, and it was a great meal. The place is very spacious with a lot of room to spread out and have a little corner to yourself. We also went on the earlier side because of our two year old, but it started getting packed closer to normal dinner time.

    Close to ASU Tempe campus. Not busy during lunch time but I should place an order online so I don't need to wait for the food. I love their high ceilings. Seasonal salad (I got peaches) and salmon & kale salad are great. Mac & cheese is surprisingly delicious. Huge warm cookie and ice cream are a must, if you have time to dine in and with another person to share.

    Spicy Chicken Sausage thin crust and garlic knots.
    Guian P.

    Thin crust pizza with spicy chicken and garlic knots. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place looked clean and the noise level was average. I recommend call ahead and order if you don't want to wait over 15 minutes, typical as most fresh made pizza pizzerias. The crust and the other items were cooked properly, nothing burnt. The taste did not stand out, I tasted mainly the cheese. For me a pizza is about the crust and sauce, which was lacking the kick a pizza sauce should have.

    They take your order at the counter
    Corrina C.

    The service wasn't good. I had to ask for the rest of my order three times and they kept forgetting. They give large portions. My chicken pasta tasted like tuna casserole- not good. My friend enjoyed her salad. The drinks are good. They have a lot of seating.

I always skip the pepperoncini peppers and get extra salami and cheese. I've tried their chicken Parmesan, spaghetti in meat sauce, chicken cutlet piccata with fettuccine alfredo and lasagna. I wasn't wowed by any of the entrees and the marinara sauce is a bit too sweet for my liking. The unlimited salad and bread is always the highlight of my meal and a treat especially as I don't eat bread at home. For $11.50, it's an excellent value. All the staff members are also incredibly nice and accommodating. It's easy to see why this restaurant is so popular and always busy.

Every component of the dish worked together perfectly. Magnificent is genuinely the best word for it.
