Jimmy & Joe's Pizzeria Serious Slices - Mesa

So we came here for date night, the staff were great and the food was better.You can always tell when you are going to have a good dining experience. The staff seemed to be having a great time and the customers were as well.We will definitely be back!

Is the term "slum lord" only applicable to facilities that primarily center around housing units?The worst part about this franchise is that the pies they serve are actually pretty good. It's no escape from New York, mind you, but for the relegation zone expectations I've come to expect as "the norm" here in Arizona, this is borderline first-class dining. Then again, when your baseline is lower than the Mariana Trench, the faintest speck of light seems like salvation. But I digress.After the 49ers made it's story book comeback against The Guardians of the Mariana Trench expectations, none other than the Detroit Lions, my plan was to come to this location for my Super Bowl feast. Like countless other scenarios I've been faced with over the past few years, fate intervened, & this quickly spiraled out into left field.I tried ordering my go-to pie, garlic white sauce, chicken, & pineapples, but was told garlic white sauce wasn't an applicable topping. Ok, no worries, "just add the pineapple to the buffalo chicken, please." When I was googling this location, one of the pictures had the specials posted to the left of the kitchen on the wall, so I was basing my estimated price point off of that information alone. At the physical brick-&-mortar location, however, they've switched to a digital display, & I'm guessing prices have been raised due to inflation. Again, no worries. When I was told that the price for 2 slices of pie and 12 wings was $32, I was a bit confused but assumed that Uncle Sam was taking his cut. WRONG!Looking at the receipt after purchasing, I saw that I was charged $9 for the added luxury of pineapples.$9!?!?!?To put that into perspective, the combo for a slice of pie plus six wings was $11. So adding pineapples amounted to 28% of the grand total.I could have gone outside, grown the pineapples myself, sliced them up, & put them on the pizza myself for cheaper than that!I actually went outside to cool off, then decided absolutely not & left without the food that I purchased. By accepting that ludicrous addition, I would have validated that blatant display of price gouging. And that is something I absolutely could not have done. There's a term for this sort of behavior; it's called "The Black Tax." Basically whenever a person doesn't feel like you're financially able to purchase something they'll purposefully raise the price to knock you down a peg. "Ooooooh! You're one of those uppity ones, huh? Ok, Mr. Moneybags, how does this sound?"With that being said, unless you're looking to purchase property in Bikini Bottom, steer clear of this entire franchise. Anything outside of their skewed & prejudiced perception will be met with exorbitant price points. I guess the ability to have customers use EBT means bleed them for every penny. Gotta balance the books somehow, right?If you're looking to visit this location during your MLB or NBA fan experience, I strongly suggest against it.Overall, this place is not the best place to go if you're of African descent.As you can see from my other reviews, I have not had the most pleasant experiences lately. However! At great personal risk to myself, I write these reviews based on my experiences so that others will benefit from the experiences that I have. I encourage others to SPEAK UP! Your voice can assist others in avoiding potentially detrimental situations, & as always, do your own research!

Q: What did the pizza say to the delivery guy?A: "You don't pepper-own me."It's February 9th and you know what that means... IT'S NATIONAL PIZZA DAY!I've been wanting to pop into Jimmy & Joe's Pizzeria for a minute. They've won so many awards, even from the Phoenix New Times! They run a great lunch special from 11AM - 2PM. I got the #2 - $11.49 for a serious slice and six wings. I got sausage on my pizza and my wings with Joe's sauce and blue cheese dip. I also ordered some bacon ranch fries with jalapeños because why not? While I gotta be honest and say the fries weren't worth the price tag (and that $1 for jalapeños will only get you a few rings), the pizza and wings here are good! Those wings will have you going back for more. As a flats lover, I'm not mad about having five flats out of six but you drums lovers might be sad. As for the pizza, yummo! It's not fancy or artisan but you know what you're getting. Sometimes a nice NY slice is all you want and that is a-okay with me!The guy running the counter, Joey, is amazing. He's harming, funny, and super friendly! Now get over here and say hello to this guy while eating some good eats!

Best slice ever? To date maybe. Size matters people. Next time going for the challenge. Should be a mouthful. The cheesy bread had the perfect crunch and was paired with a marinara comparable to a fine bottle of wine.

This was a pretty big disappointment for me. The base price for a cheese slice was like $7, so adding a couple toppings ran me over 10 bucks for a slice of pizza. The slice IS large, so no complaints there, but I just really didn't enjoy the quality. I want to give these guys another shot but I'd honestly rather just get a slice from cost co.

Awesome pizza and amazing wings!! I would definitely recommend if you love good wings.

The food is amazing and the restaurant looks clean and inviting to sit in. Customer service is great!!!

I ordered a large supreme. Holy moly. This place is freaking awesome. Totally reminds me of New York and Jersey pizza I have had in the past years. I would say this is a must try if you like New York style pizza. Wow I can't get over how good it was. Definitely will be going back.

I asked for no tomatoes on it and got no sauce instead and the marinara sauce seems to be mixed with water it's extremely runny

Looovvve this pizza spot! The pizza is delicious, love the buffalo chicken. The wings are also a must, crispy and such good flavor. My new go to spot.
