Venezia's New York Style Pizzeria

Was on a family vacation this past weekend and a group of 10 of us wanted to get pizza. We got 3 pizza and man was that way too much. The pizzas are big. Two 12in for the kids and one 24in adults and one salad I think we had half the salad and more than a 12 inch pizza leftover. We got it to go, but as I sat there waiting to pick it up look like a really cool place to eat and enjoy the game.

One of Our Go-To Vegan Pizza Spots in the Valley We’re a vegan family of five in the Phoenix area, and Venezia’s New York Style Pizzeria is one of our top pizza picks for dinner or date night spots in PHX. This time, we did takeout from the Chandler location, but we’ve also dined in for lunch and dinner and we’ve visited the Tempe location as well. The Chandler spot is in a small, tucked-away plaza right across from the Drury Hotel, near a couple of other little businesses. There’s a good amount of parking, both indoor and outdoor seating, and they even have high chairs, very family-friendly. The patio is a nice touch if you want to enjoy your pizza outside. The Tempe location has the same great food and service, but it’s in a University building and parking can be a bit trickier there. Once you find your spot, though, the experience is just as good timely, friendly, and accommodating staff every time. We love that they have a dedicated vegan/dairy-free menu, it’s not something you see everywhere. Our go-to is the Veggie Delight on a party-size thin crust, cut into squares, with vegan sausage, vegan pepperoni, black olives, mushrooms, and green peppers l, all topped with vegan cheese. The vegan sausage is crumbled and has a little bit of spice, which we enjoy, but if spice isn’t your thing, you might want to do half-and-half or stick to the cheese and veggie toppings. They also do a New York-style thick crust, and honestly, of all the places we’ve tried, they nail the New York flavor and texture better than most in the Valley. Once again, here’s what we love most: We almost always get a large order the partysize pizza is around $60 with and feeds a lot of people (the extra-large is a little if you don’t need quite as much). We’ll freeze the leftovers for quick meals later in the week. The vegan baked ziti (that cheesy pasta dish in the little metal pan) is also delicious, and the vegan cheesy breadsticks are another must-try. We haven’t had the vegan and gluten-free cookies yet, but it’s a huge plus that they even have them along with vegan and gluten-free pizza options. Venezia’s offers pickup, delivery, and dine-in. We’ve never done delivery ourselves, but we know different services have different fees, so it’s worth checking before you order. If you come in the evening or even at lunch, expect a short wait for the food if you order larger pizzas but they’ll let you know the timing, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. They serve Pepsi products, plus an in-house 32-ounce lemonade that’s actually really good.The menu is flexible with size options, 12”, 14”, 16”, and 24” pizzas so you can order for just yourself or for a crowd. If you’re a vegan in the Valley (or just want good New York-style pizza), it’s worth stopping by. No website, but you can call in and place your order for pickup. And if you’re like us and want extra flavor, get a little side of sauce for dipping, makes it even better. God bless this spot

I appreciated the service, but was slow to receive food when eating outside. Good pizza, and a good place for events.

The pizza was just what we expected! Thin crust with lots of pepperoni, I added some Parmesan hot chile pepper and Italian seasoning. The center of the pie was not up to the stand up test and we had to do the double fold as it was a very moist pie. The sauce was good with basil and Oregano notes and had plenty of it on the pie! The crust was a bit thick but a good crunch and chew! I will go back.

Best NY pizza joint in the valley! Slices are available any time of the day if you cant commit to a whole pie. You can customize your slice however you like and they're very generous with the toppings. They are always super friendly and quick to greet you. You'll see them take extra measures to make sure your order is accurate and as you like it. It's the little things....and they do them right!

I am new to Chandler and this is my favorite food place by far. This pizza is absolutely amazing. The side salad was delicious. The meatballs were good and the chicken wings were delicious as well. I am excited to try everything they have on the menu. The service is always fast and friendly. They are very efficient. Love this place
