It was a bit busy but they sat us all inside because of the pending rain storm. I can only imagine how busy it gets during the winter. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amack26 Report post Posted August 6, 2022 Artichoke Basilles off Bethany Home and 16th street is great pizza. Simple, the sauce is awesome, and the ingredients are quality. My significant other and is the resident Italian, she gave it the seal of approval as well. I went a few weeks ago. She got the artichoke and the Staten Island slice. I got the Pepperoni and the Margherita slice and was very impressed. The slices were massive and reasonably priced. The bottom was crispy the crust was not too doughy. The Artichoke slice used a white sauce and was more doughy but I enjoyed the few bites I have had. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Upon walking in, we had a nice view of the slice pie glass display. I saw that they had sets of Bakers Pride pizza ovens with cordierite decks so I was pumped. Tried the Margherita and the Staten Island slices. Slices came out piping hot with crispy crust bottoms, just the way I like em. They use Polly-O mozzarella and add Grana Padano cheese. Not sure if this contributed to an oilier finish than I prefer. (as you've noticed, I love Grande Mozzarella) Flavor profiles on both pizza's was good. The sauce was flavorful/savory and a welcomed surprise as I've been tired of the bland tomato sauces at other pizza joints. The crust absolutely slapped. It has great texture and a perfect chew. Not only would I hit this place up again, it's my new go-to for NY style pizza. Thanks again amack26 for the recommendation! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I prefer the pre-made slices. they'll put them in the oven to finish and they'll get that nice crust at the bottom. I almost decided to work in Tucson today as I was Jonesing for it. Opted to head to Sal's in Gilbert last night instead... was disappointed. Up in Tucson now gonna give them a whirl, waiting for the Zemams African food place to open to get momma something then off to the pizza store! Hope it's good. I'm glad this threads still going Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I'd put it in the range of Brooklyn pizza on 4th Ave and rosattis thin crust. I'll keep trying new ones based on this thread though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
