Federal Pizza

Placed an order for pick-up while we were in the area. Great gluten-free pizza here! SiSi helped us, and she was awesome. Not just because we had service with a smile, but because she took the time to answer questions about ingredients, and even talked to the staff in back to get answers. If you are gluten-free because of celiac disease or an allergy, let them know. They will bake it in a separate oven and make sure to use a clean pizza cutter. If you just order gluten-free without specifying allergy, it will be baked with all the other pizzas. Also, they cannot guarantee cross contamination. Not many places do.Since April, they have officially had a full bar! Specialty cocktails, local craft beers including 4 Pigs, and Greenwood. A nice wine list, also offering some local brands, italian etc.. They rotate both! It is warmer than most places on a hot day in the early afternoon. Not too bad. Love that they have a drive-thru, though I haven't taken advantage of it yet. They have always been busy, yet still attentive, super friendly, and fast every visit. Our gluten-free cheese pizzas were great. They have the loose flour at the bottom of the pizza which makes it taste like a traditional pizza. I was assured it was just rice flour. The crust is so yummy, that it makes Federal one of our favorite local pizza places. Definitely tastes best fresh! Yummy food, great service every time makes Federal's a go-to place we can't pass when in the area.

Heirloom? really? this is the farthest thing I'd expect from Federal when I ordered an Heirloom Caprese salad. try harder.

The Double Down lunch special -- a half pizza and half salad of your choice -- is a delicious deal. Because I'm a sucker for sweet and savory flavor combos, I went with the Wedge salad (which has dates -- an inspired addition) and Flaming Lips pie. My husband is an unapologetic carnivore so he enjoyed the Federal Chop salad and the Meatball pizza. We both agreed that the latter was a bit bland when fresh, but melded together as leftovers the next day.

Not the best service but the pizza has made it into my top 5 in Phoenix and the Nutella tiramisu was oh my goodness. A little heavy on the Nutella but the cake. Damn. The cake. Cute outside space when the weather is nice :)

Had a great experience here on a Tuesday night . We didn't know it , but we happened to come on a night they have a special with a pizza and bottle of wine for 30 bucks . Pizza size was perfect to share for two . Very cute ambiance for a date night or girls night . Nice lighting and friendly servers . Autumn did a great job being attentive and kind , service with a smile and very positive energy . We'll be backkkkkkk !

Let me preface this by saying I usually have a great experience here. Unfortunately that was not the case during this visit.Ordering Online - once we placed our order online, it gave us an estimated pickup time of 45 minutes later. We arrived 3 minutes early (just in case) and didn't get our food until 60 minutes after ordering. We had a salad in our order, but didn't receive any utensils even though we requested 3 sets. Normally that wouldn't matter, but when you're staying at a hotel, it's a major inconvenience.Drive Thru - I don't recommend using this on busy nights since it gets crowded and there aren't that many pickup parking spots. Since people don't necessarily arrive in the order that the food is ready, they will most likely direct you to the parking spots in between them and Joyride.Food - I love their pizza! I recommend the meatball pizza since they make their own meatballs. They also have a good chopped salad, although I wish the lettuce was more chopped up (it's more like wild greens).I've been here before to dine in and I think I would stick to that in the future. They don't have a ton of seating inside, but I've had good service before.

I love love love this place! There is a good amount of seating inside and outside. Usually, they have a long wait so make sure to plan accordingly. They have unique pizza toppings and I have yet to try something that isn't yummy. We ordered 2 pizzas, garlic bread and wings for 3 people and we were unable able to finish it all (we tend to eat a lot). Highly recommend adding an egg to your pizza if you're into venturing out from the norm. The service is the only downside to this establishment. We asked for a refill 3 times before we were actually able to get one. Regardless, we keep coming back because it's that good.

Based on the Yelp listing, we dined here during a recent visit to Phoenix.Hubby's sister flew in on Saturday, and we picked her up before proceeding to the restaurant. We had no reservation, but the wait was reasonable for a weekend evening.Our server, Willow, took good care of us, as well as provided a delicious dessert recommendation.Sis enjoyed her glass of Prosecco with a heaping plate of Garganelli. Hubby teased his sister for her vegetable entree, while he wolfed down the Lamb Bolognese. His beverage tonight was the Huss Arizona Light beer. I opted for the yummy Mickey White pasta, with enough for a doggy bag.Our shared dessert was the Salted Caramel Banana Pudding. Three thumbs up!A bustling, fun place with decent prices.My only misgiving is how dark the room is.

A go-to in Phoenix! I came here a bunch of times with friends, family, out-of-towners, and coworkers. It was a really solid spot; definitely got busy on Mondays and Tuesdays because they had their bottle/pitcher and pizza for $20 deal, but it's since gone up to $30 (ughhh inflation). Honestly, still a great deal, but knowing/remembering the really good days stings just a bit.I tried a lot of their dishes over the years - wings were delicious (buffalo and windsor gold). Casanova, At Last, and Flaming Lips pizza were phenomenal and the pasta always hit the spot. You really couldn't go wrong with anything on the menu. It was also always vibrant and lively, service was great, and, especially with the mon/tue night specials, great value for money. I loved it enough to come outside of that window too though! If you're in the area, you are in for a treat!

Our server was sooo nice! I got the half casanova + half little salad deal for 13.50 and it was so good and filling! The ambiance is also super cute, but it's a little cold. I would recommend!!
