Best Pizza in Scottsdale
Scottsdale, Arizona — updated August 22, 2026
Wood-fired pies in Old Town, Neapolitan on North Scottsdale Road, and neighborhood pizzerias that only open for dinner: where Scottsdale's pizza actually holds up, ranked by how settled the ratings are.
Listings verified
Scottsdale's pizza splits cleanly by geography: wood-fired pies with a beer list in Old Town, Neapolitan on North Scottsdale Road, and small pizzerias further out that do not unlock the doors until late afternoon. That last group matters if you plan on a weekday lunch, because several of the best kitchens here are dinner-only. The list below is ordered by how well each place answers the pizza question, with review volume treated as evidence of how settled a rating is.
1. Craft 64 Scottsdale
Artisan wood-fired pizza with a brewery attached, on East Main Street in Old Town, and the most thoroughly tested rating on this list: 4.6 from 1,556 reviews. Alongside the pies the kitchen runs bruschetta, charcuterie and smoked hot wings, with craft beer and cocktails to match. Happy hour runs 3 to 6 pm every day, which is the window to aim for if you want the patio without a wait. Hours are 11 am to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, 11 am to 10 pm Friday and Saturday, and 11 am to 8 pm Sunday.
2. Pomo Pizzeria Napoletana
The Neapolitan option, at 8977 N Scottsdale Road, holding 4.5 across 1,519 reviews, so the score is well proven rather than provisional. The menu pairs the pizzas with homemade pastas, which makes it the easier choice for a table where not everyone wants a pie. Happy hour is Monday to Friday, 3 to 6 pm, and is not offered on weekends, so weekend visits are full-price affairs. Doors open at 11 am daily, closing at 9 pm Sunday through Thursday and 10 pm on Friday and Saturday.
3. IL Bosco Pizza
A dinner-only pizzeria on East Becker Lane with a 4.6 rating from 546 reviews, enough volume to take seriously without being an Old Town institution. The kitchen opens in the late afternoon, roughly 4 to 4:30 pm, and closes at 9 pm Monday through Saturday and 8 pm on Sunday. Happy hour is Monday to Friday from 4 pm, ending at 5:30, so the first ninety minutes of service are the value window. Tables can be booked online, which is worth doing on weekends given the short nightly service.
4. iPizza Pizzeria
The highest score in this group, 4.8, but from 245 reviews, so treat it as promising rather than settled. It sits on East McKellips Road in south Scottsdale, well away from the Old Town cluster, which makes it a genuine neighborhood option rather than a stop on a bar crawl. Verified hours and menu details are thin in our research, so call ahead before making a trip across town. On rating alone it is the strongest pizzeria on this list; on evidence, it still has some proving to do.
5. Joe's NY Pizza
The New York-style entry, on East Shoeman Lane in Old Town, a short walk from the Main Street restaurants. Its 4.1 rating across 371 reviews is the lowest here, but it is a settled number rather than a small sample, which reads as consistent rather than exceptional. Included because Scottsdale's pizza scene otherwise leans heavily wood-fired and Neapolitan, and this covers the thin-slice, quick-stop end that the others do not. Confirm hours before a late visit, as our research does not establish them.
What we left off
Cool Gelato Italiano rates 4.8 from 248 reviews and is open Friday through Sunday only, but it is a gelato shop, not a pizzeria, so it does not belong on a pizza list. Andreoli Italian Grocer carries the biggest review count in the city for Italian food, 1,787 at a 4.7, and is closed Sundays and Mondays; our research describes it as an Italian grocer rather than a pizza kitchen, so we could not verify it on the premise. Picazzo's Healthy Italian Kitchen was cut for the same reason: the menu is described as modern Italian with global flavors rather than a pizzeria.
