I come here before (almost) every show I see at Van Buren. They are quick with service and food is SO good. They have vegetarian friendly options, and good local beer if you don't want to spend venue prices across the street. I usually get the white pizza but change up my second slice between the margherita, green, or a special slice. Highly recommend this place for good quality slices. You can also get it to go if you want to eat while standing in line.
This spot is great for some yummy pizza. Stopped by on Friday for a quick early dinner and there was several people dining in. The cashier was super friendly and she welcomed us with a big happy smile. We were a group of three so we needed some time to decide what we wanted. I ended up ordering a slice of sausage, a slice of their special of the day, and a cold water bottle. We waited a few minutes and our orders came by out one by one. Both of my slices were delicious, flavorful, and pretty big. Everyone was friendly here and the the pizza was good. Parking is paid but the worker said it is typically not enforced till the night time. We ate in about 30mins
This place has some of the best pizza slices in Arizona. Tons of unique flavors with a very New York style flare. I love that you can purchase by the slice, and that each slice has fresh basil and parm on it. Every bite was an absolute joy for my taste buds. Loved the hard rock/metal vibe in there 2, especially with 2 concert venues nearby. Will absolutely be returning!
Both my pizza slices were delcious and service was great. I came with a friend and we both enjoyed our food. The cashier who rang us up was very friendly!
I tried Via Della's about three years ago and they were the bomb! The wife and I decided to try it again because we just wanted a good pizza. The last place we tried was disappointing. We ordered a couple of sodas and the same slices we ordered last time, pepperoni and vodka slices. The slices were delivered in no time! They were hot and crispy! I don't know what happened, but the quality just wasn't there. I could not taste the sauce on my pizza. It was non existent. It was like eating pizza bread with cheese and pepperoni. The Vodka pizza had no detectable sauce on it either. It also tasted just like cheese bread. I don't know if its because of different pizza makers or the new standard, but I was disappointed. I was very impressed last visit and even made a statement that the Vodka slice may be my new favorite. I was a little let down this time around!
The pizza here is good! We stopped in for lunch right when they opened. This place gets busy quick. There are some tables but the restaurant isn't that big. The staff we friendly and there are several pizzas to choose slices from. I got two of the Phoenix slices and it was delicious! I have heard the wings are great, so I'll have to give them a try too. I will definitely be back!
Cute little slice shop in downtown. About $5-6 per slice. They have about 7 different slices to choose from and seemed to all be novelty flavors and toppings. You can also get a whole pie of your choice. They grate fresh parm on all the slices which I thought was a nice touch. The girl at the register seemed very knowledgeable about all the pizzas and gave us lots of details and recommendations which we appreciated. First we got the green, di Parma, and the Phoenix. The green has pistachios and fresh arugula on it, I thought the overall flavor was too sweet and the pistachios weren't crush enough. The Phoenix was good, very honey forward and overall the flavor didn't stick out to me. The di Parma was a cheese pizza with procuttio and ricotta, overall a little plain to me. I think they all would've tasted better hot, but I understand that's not super realistic for a slice shop. For our second order we got the vodka sauce slice, which was for sure my favorite. First of all it was piping hot, and that elevated the whole experience. I thought the sauce was so flavorful and savory, and the basil made a perfect bite. I would go back for a whole pie of this! I really liked the prices here, we got dinner for less than $25 for 2. I wouldn't mind coming back to try some other slices and get a pie of the vodka!
My family and I recently hosted our own pizza tour in Downtown Phoenix and unanimously agreed that this was our favorite spot. I recently visited late night after some drinks with my friends and were welcomed by the amazing scent of pizza. The slices are about the size of a Costco slice but way better quality. The pricing is a bit steep, but well suited for the quality and flavor of each slice. If you take a whole pizza to go you'll be surprised by how large of a pie it is! Also - their wings are amazing!
I really wish that I had a different experience, but Via just did not do it for me :( My pizza was soggy. It did not pass the flop test. Not even close. Had to hold it up with two hands. And I ate it right away in my car, so it wasn't sitting. Idk if it was due to how they reheated the slices or if my slices had just been there for too long, but it was super underwhelming. That said, the white pizza was def my fave as far as flavor, and the sesame seeds were a great touch! The Caesar salad dressing was also really, really good! And the salad had lots of croutons. But for 15 bucks I wouldn't get it again. It was 90% lettuce. My other gripe was definitely the parking. There are a few free spaces in the front, but the lot in the back must be paid for and it only has 6- or 12- hour options. It was like $11 to park - basically the same price as 2 slices of pizza! I risked it all and did not pay which gave me anxiety lol. Not their fault at all but parking totally sucks. Pricing of the food is my final thought - for 2 slices and the salad it was almost $30 with tip. That's a lot for a meal just for me! I read that they're using really good quality ingredients and I am a big fan of that and willing to pay for it, but in this case, the flavor of everything just didn't add up to the cost.
We were in the area for the Nutcracker, and used the parking lot directly behind this pizza spot. Honestly if we were here just for the pizza spot 30$ parking is a little much to eat a slice of pizza! Loved the spot it's located, as we walked in the girl was very sweet, she told me what the most popular pizza was. " the Phoenix " We ordered the wings, two slices of pepperoni, one slice of spicy sausage with pepperoni and then the Phoenix. Honestly we didn't like there there were no fountain drinks just bottle. But they had good options! They bright the pizza up our table and honestly looking at the pizza even though it just came "out " it looked like it had been sitting all day it just did not look like fresh pizzas. They all looked so similar that when they gave us the pizzas my husband couldn't tell between the spicy sausage and the Phoenix because they look pretty similar. They both had spicy honey on them. One just had a little bit more decoration and that's how I noticed which one was which, but when they set it down, he could have explained to us, which was which Pizza!. I feel like the menu could have had a description of what was on the pizzas. My husband did not know that the spicy sausage and pepperoni was going to have honey on it or else he would have ordered it without that so the ingredients of the pizza if they're adding something so different like that should be on the menu. We got two orders of wings equating like 18-20 they gave two ranch and washed to charge for an extra. Now with that many wings and two separate orders you would think that each basket would come with 2 sides each at least!! The vibe in there was cool but a little dim, the positioning of the TV was not accommodating to guests! The restroom was not very clean. But the music was good!! It was not the best or worst place!!
This place was across the street from our hotel and it was late but they were still open so we decided to grab a slice. It was one hour before closing so there wasn't a huge selection of slices in the display case. The grandma style with pepperoni seemed to be the freshest so we ordered two of those. The girl behind the counter was nice and quick to take our order. Our slices were delivered after a quick heat up in the oven and they were hot and tasty! Topped off with fresh hand torn basil and freshly grated Parmesan. Next time I'd like to order a whole pie to judge the pizza better when I know it's fresh from the oven... but for a reheated slice it was pretty good.
10/10 casual pizza place if you want a quick grab. Each slice was about $5.50 and huge! My favorite was the vodka slice, as a vodka pasta lover, this HIT! The crust was nice and thin and crispy throughout the slice. Every slice that I got was so good but definitely recommend the vodka one. We had to wait a bit for the pepperoni slice since they were out at the time, but it was only a 10 min wait and we were in no rush so it was great. I highly recommend coming here for a quick bite with friends. I also heard their wings are really good, so I will be trying that next time, and getting that vodka slice.
Well it's official. After many years and many pizzas i have finally found the best slice shop in phoenix. This review is for a counter service slice spot. I live in north phoenix so this trip took a bit but found myself downtown today and finally!!! Soooo good. Please open up a spot in north phoenix!!!!! Cool little place. Great staff. Small place. Only 7 tables. Highly recommended!!!!!
Dined at Via Della Slice Shop one weeknight with some friends. The place wasn't busy so we didn't have to wait. There were several open tables. Very casual ambiance. I ordered two of the vegetarian options, a green pie and a white pie. The green pie has homemade pesto crema, jalapeño-pineapple marmalade, mozzarella, pistachio crumble, arugula and reggiano. The white pie has homemade white sauce, mozzarella, caramelized onion, basil, and reggiano with a sesame seed crust. Wow, these are some of the best slices I've had in a while! Unique, too, especially the green pie with the marmalade and pistachio. Slices done right! read more

Very tasty pizza with huge new York style slices and lots of flavor! Only issue is you want a fresh one out of the oven, sometimes you may get slices been sitting for a period of time that they reheat. But fun place read more

Came here 2pm on a Friday and wow what a great pizza joint. Primus was playing, the pizza was awesome, and I really liked the decor. Their crust is just perfect, it's almost thin with a slight crunch to it but still soft enough. Perfect for folding in half and eating. I got a white pizza and my wife got a diparma. Both were excellent! If I lived around here I could see coming to this pizza place a lot! Definitely worth a visir. The building it is in is historic too, there's some cool photos on the wall of it. read more

Cool spot in downtown Phoenix. It does seem like more of a to-go place. They have 10 different type of slices, full pies, wings, salads and sandwiches. We tried a few different slices and the golden wings with blue cheese. The wings were good, crispy and very hot. The pizza was good - the sauce was the best part. A ton of flavor and very fresh. The slices were very greasy, crispy, and thin. They seemed slightly under staffed so it did take awhile. The best slice we had was the spicy sausage. read more

Pizza was a good 7/10. We had the "deep dish" pepperoni and the OG slice. OG was a better slice in our opinions. Service was okay. Cashier seemed a bit like we were a bother to him and gave off that vibe. However, the hot honey wings were nuts! Great 10/10 for the wings. Would recommend if you went for the wings. read more

Super busy on a Saturday night. Got there right before the rush about 6pm. It is a tiny shop, about 8 tables, sits 2-4 comfortably each. No soda on tap, only cans/bottles, but they keep the drinks (including alcohol) simple to focus on the real star, thin crust pizza. Flavor components include a great char on the crust, even tangy:sweet ratio of the tomato sauce, spicy salami or sausage, creamy rich ricotta, that all come together for the slices. We got a Phoenix, spicy sausage, and green. Our friends got a basket of honey wings so we sampled that too. Great crisp, naked wings with a light sweet sauce, yummy! A little on the pricey side, ~ $5.50/slice. We wanted to order a whole pie, but the wait on that would have been 3 hrs! Parking is street meter, don't get bamboozled by the park and pay $30/stalls. We were happy, tummy's full, I'd go again. read more
I was able to cross another Yelp location of my bucket list! Nothing like a slice of za! We were out and about downtown and found ourselves walking distance from Via Della Slice Shop, and honestly I love all types of pizza, but a slice shop really hits the spot. I loved the vibe, it was sort of moody, but also cozy. Shop is not large by any means, but it doesn't need to be. Has enough booths and tables to cover a quick bite. Their menu lists all the Kayce's they have and the price for a slice or a pie if you so choose. In addition, they have wings a few simple sides and bonus limoncello! Though they were sold out this fine evening - but will be returning and ordering on my next visit! The list most of the ingredients and pizza type right on the glass case in front of the pizza, which is appreciated. They over some canned wines, beers and seltzers behind the counter as well. You order at the counter and take your number to your table, few minutes pass and slices are delivered right in front of ya. We opted for the Spicy Salami, Vodka, White and Green Chile, with a couple sides of ranch! All the slices were delicious with unique flavor profiles. The white slice had onion jam, the green Chile had pistachios. I love a classics slice, but having a twist on classics is also very welcomed. Dough is made in house, delicious thin crust might I add, though it seems like everything is made in house and fresh. Ingredients were top notch. I look forward to a return visit, perhaps try deep dish grandmas slice or get a whole pie & hopefully some of that limoncello! read more

This is the best NY style pizza spot in AZ. Not even close. This is also one of the best vodka slices I've had and that's not just in az. Highly recommend getting a fresh pie here. Super thin crust. Great crunch, super fresh cheese and they use a Parmesan mix in their cheese it's so good. The parking will be tricky on a busy day downtown but usually there's spots in front or in their private lot. There is I assume always parking in the paid lot around the corner. Highly recommend. Go here, it reminds me of home(NJ). read more
Love love this place!! Was looking for a pizza place that just does pizza by the slice all day not only for the "lunch" hour and I found this restaurant! Very reasonable priced! Very cool vibe as well! The cashier was also very nice which always a plus! I got the original and my boyfriend got the pepperoni! Oh and the ranch is very tasty as well!! Would definitely go back!! :) read more

Best Pizza in all of Arizona Alert ‼ This New Jersey Pizza Snob has Finally attained Pizza Nirvana in the Desert I first came here in January after a Led Zeppelin Tribute Band across the street at The Van Buren ...it was The Best pizza in Arizona I have ever had I decided based off that one visit. I have since been here a few times and my feeling about it still stands - Via Della is by far the best I've had in my 30+ years here in AZ. (I arrived here in August 1992 to go to ASU). I am never talking "it's The Best..." because really - is one pizza joint or one burger joint The Best ...there's too many of them and we've been to too many good places during our lives that's it's hard to say - but I can say with 100% confidence this place is by far The Best Pizza in Arizona. Incidentally when I started typing this, a Led Zeppelin song was on the sound system - so maybe that subconsciously triggered me to to write this as I've been wanting to write a Review about this place since that first night. read more

We came in on a Thursday evening. The area was super busy but there were seats in the restaurant. Parking in the area is terrible. It was about $40 to park. Luckily the pizza was really tasty. I tried all the "vegetarian" slices. I enjoyed all of them but the white slice was my favorite. I haven't had a slice shop slice in a while. Im happy to break my sliceless streak with such a great slice. read more

I'm not from the area but I've tried this pizza on a couple of visits and I'm at the point where you honestly can't pry me away from the state of Arizona with a crowbar before stopping by this place for a couple slices or full pies. The pizza is absolutely phenomenal. Great friendly staff as well. I'll be back every time I'm anywhere near Phoenix. read more
I loved the vibe, anime on the tv and great music! The pizza was super affordable and the portions were great! I got full off of one giant slice and shared the 6 piece wing with a friend. I recommend the HOT HONEY so good. Staff was super nice and the food came out quick :) read more
"Pizza dudes got 30 seconds!"-TMNT This maybe my favorite place to get a slice of pizza in downtown Phx! Came here on a Sunday after the Cards game. Wasn't too busy when we showed up but it did have it wave of the busy crowd while we ate. Located downtown, so of course parking is limited or pay to park but luckily we found a spot at no charge. The restaurant is located in a black brick building-which may be tricky to find because the store front only has a small sign on the door. Nevertheless, your GPS will get you there! Staff was great and greeted a right away at the door. I ordered the Phoenix 9.4/10, the Spicy Sausage 9.5/10, the Di Parma 9.3/10, and some honey hot/bbq hot wings. Wow every bite was so savory. The thin crust was consistent with every bite. I really enjoyed the spicy sausage pizza because it was hot from the peppers and yet sweet from the honey. I'd get this slice again. The wings were also a hit! The staff was great in suggesting sauces. My favorite was the honey hot. I'd love to bring my husband back here so he gets the full experience that I did. read more

This place is super good. I traveled downtown from Uptown so I'm glad my trip was justified. The space is chill and relaxing. Parking can be a trick but that's how it goes downtown. I got a canned beer (Church Music), 6 wings with the hot honey sauce a slice of the vodka pie and the prosciutto sandwich. The wings were piping hot and that hot honey sauce was so tasty. The slice was awesome (great crust) and a good size. The sandwich was served cold, the fresh focaccia was so nice. It had just the right amount of sea salt and toasted perfectly. The mix of the brie and fig jam added so much flavor. The service was great, very pleasant and nice. read more
