 Fresh dough, daily |
4955 North Sabino Canyon Road Tucson, AZ 85750 United States +1 520 299 7311 |
This pizzeria shines by virtue of the dough and sauce that are made fresh daily on the premises. You can taste the difference, too! Vegetarian choices are available. The interior of the place is nothing to write home about except that it's squeaky clean; but as most customers opt for take-out, that doesn't really matter: it's the food that counts. So get your lunch special and go picnic in the shaded areas of nearby beautiful Sabino Canyon. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Focus on kids |
6960 East Sunrise Drive (Sunrise and Kolb) Suite #120 Tucson, AZ 85750 United States +1 520 577 9009 http://www.grandmatonyspizza.com |
Victoria Fitzpatrick, owner of this new pizza store in the Ventana Village Plaza, has made a point of providing customers with a family-friendly environment. Hungry kids are given paper and crayons to contribute to the collection of children's drawings decorating the walls, while parents can tell them about Marilyn Monroe, The Beatles and other pop icons smiling from photos next to the art wall. There's not much space at the squeaky-clean counter, but that won't matter much, as most of the business is take-out. A special attraction for families is the lunch special, which is a two-item pizza for $8, served Monday-Friday 11a-3p. Individual slices cost $2.50, and there is a small selection of salads and breadsticks available, plus spicy chicken wings at $4 a dozen. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Famous for enormous family-size pizza |
7965 North Oracle Road (Southwest corner of Oracle and Magee) Tucson, AZ 85704-6346 United States +1 520 297 3993 http://www.mamasfamous.com/ |
The owners have made an effort to make this into a family-friendly place by putting in a few video games and toys, and your kids will love the place; it also means that it gets a little noisier here than in other eateries of the same type. If you prefer street noises to those created by children, you can always sit outside by the parking lot. The family pizza here is spectacular at $23, as are the other pizza selections in the $8 range, such as the Sicilian-style one with its thick crust. Other items on the menu include pastas, salads, calzones, and deli subs. Domestic and imported beers are available by the bottle. Other location is at 4500 East Speedway Boulevard.

Very thick-crust pizza |
3011 East Speedway Boulevard (Northwest corner of Speedway and Country Club) Tucson, AZ 85716 United States +1 520 881 5555 |
Each pizza at this eatery on busy Speedway Boulevard is hand-spun, and you can watch the procedure from the counter. The crust is extraordinarily thick, but can be made thinner upon request. Limited seating is available near the counter and outside near the curb, but the main business here is takeout. Specialty pizzas come in four different sizes, ranging from 10-inches to 16-inches. A variety of salads is available, as are calzones and sub sandwiches. Pasta entrees like Linguini and Lasagna are a recent addition to the menu. Note the amazing choice of toppings you get on your pizza or in your calzone. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Taste a slice of the Windy City |
2707 East Broadway Boulevard Tucson, AZ 85716 United States +1 520 321 1860 |
Chicago transplant and former rock musician, Rocco DiGrazia, brings a bite of the Windy City to Tucson at this neighborhood pizzeria. The choices include double-crusted pies and thin-crust, square cut options. With names like the Heart Attack (piles of meat and tons of cheese) and Fungus Humongous (mega-mushrooms), it's obvious this isn't health-conscious dining, but it's a delicious indulgence. A few sandwiches (also of mammoth proportions) are also offered and beer and wine are served. Quite likely, Rocco himself, will prepare your pizza. Review © 2007, Wcities |
