Fiamme Pizza

Really happy I decided to randomly try Fiamme today. Boyfriend and I went for lunch and we both ordered the 2 slice special with a drink. It did take bit for the pizza slices to come out but we realized they were making that pizza fresh right there for us. I didn't think that would be the case for just a couple slices of pizza but I will always happily wait for a fresh slice of pizza. The pizza itself was so yummy, love a good wood- fired pizza. Crust was perfect. Pepperonis were delish. The 2 slices of pizza were equivalent to half of a whole pizza and I'm thankful for that because now I have a snack for later. The restaurant itself was nothing fancy but I will pick this over an overpriced pizza place any day. Service was straightforward and we were greeted quickly. Eating out these days is always so expensive and I seem to always be disappointed with the quality of food especially for the price. Well not here! Prices are very fair and reasonable. I will absolutely be back to work my way through the menu.

We arrived here on a Sunday night. There are about 8 tables 6 two tops, a 4 top and a 6 top. When you arrive you will literally walk through the kitchen to be seated. That was a bit odd. Colas are served in cans at $4 each. Teas are $3 each. You do get a glass of ice. We started with single slices, I had the standard slice of pepperoni my son a margarita slice. Pepperoni was spicy, lots of cheese, however, the bottoms were both very black, an indication that the wood fire over needs to be "swept".For our main pie, we went with the carne, a meat lovers delight. The dough was light and airy, good sausage, light sauce but not too light, quite spicy. The only downfall, incredibly greasy in the underside, but then again it is all meat. It is a really weird vibe. We were sat so close to the kitchen that the staff was folding pizza boxes right next to our table. All in all a decent pie. A solid B-. I Likely would have graded higher if there were additional menu items such as a few pasta dishes and an option for refills on drinks. But the place just works.

We have finally found good pizza in Tucson!After 2 years of trying almost every pizza place out here and all of them being terrible.Fiamme is hands down the best pizza out here. Being from the NJ/NY area we have missed the amazing pizza from back home so much and it's nice to finally find a decent place out here.We ordered on Uber and got the 18 inch plain cheese pizza. When judging a pizza place for the first time you have to go with plain cheese pizza to see if they are a good place or not. We were hesitant to pay the absurdly high price of 28.60 for a plain cheese pizza but we have been on a hunt for decent pizza and decided to give them a chance anyway.So glad we did, because now I know why they get away with charging the ridiculously high price, it is the best pizza we have had in Tucson and even close to as good as back home.The crust was baked perfectly and had good chew and was just right, the sauce was perfect, and the cheese was amazing. Hopefully we didn't just get lucky and caught them on a good night, hopefully they are consistent and will update my review on my second order if it's not. My only complaint is that the pizza arrived cold, but that's not Fiamme's fault the Uber people should be required to have thermal bags for all deliveries, especially pizza but I guess some drivers do not use them.Anyhow best pizza in Tucson so far, but we got a few other spots on our list yet to try as well like Renee's and Falora but compared to the other 20 places we have tried so far over these last two years this place is by far the best.9.2 out of 10 for Tucson 7.5 out of 10 for back home NJ/NYThe top 3 plain cheese pizza spots in Tucson so far: 1. Fiamme 2. Dominick's real Italian 3. Carusos

Made the trip from Vail, running errands to check the chew on this highly rated pie. Tucked in at the end of a Safeway corner mall off Swan, you'll find plenty of parking around. Narrow entryway leads to a hallway of tables for two and a couple of larger tables with a pie station in the front window and a galley kitchen in the back. It's frosty inside which is great for the cooks so grab a layer or 2, even the hubs was ashiver hahaOur server was super, so polite, checked on us numerous times, and even offered us drinks to go for the trip home. The $15 Lunch Combo Special runs to 5PM daily, yes even weekends, and it can't be beat with ANY 9" pie + either Caesar, Caprese or Arugula salad + any of their soft drinks including San Pellegrino,Mexican Coke, Soda Cans & espresso/cappuccino but broken that day; we were trying to tame that in-house chill haha. Note that you get real metal cutlery and glass with ice to drink the soda cans, a much appreciated lovely upgrade to your dining experience over many a quick pie slice shop with plastic and paper cups. It definitely makes you relax, sit a while and enjoy the whole experience.Pizza crust is slightly charred black and bubbled, a great sign; it had a slight crisp but middle a bit under and kinda soggy. Prefer more sauce and for the sauce to be a bit more tomato forward and less cheese so sauce comes through. Ingredients were super fresh and the side salad was huge and lightly dressed with lemon vinaigrette, cherry t's, pine nuts & shaved parm ($$ ingredients). As Portland part-timers, we have an abundance of excellent pies to compare to, and so far Falora and Empire are our faves. We'll hit the Detroit deep slices soon.Fiamme is a tad far to check out again quickly but if running around the Foothills it will be on my radar to give it a go again and ask for more sauce, less cheese and to char it up, blistering it all over. Great folks, excellent service, cook/owner? thanked us for coming in, relaxed dining experience for a strip mall stop, with a chill dining room for sure to hide from the heat lol. Thank You Fiamme; we love supporting local!

This is authentic Neapolitan style pizza, don't expect gobs of cheese which is just way too I like it. It's pretty much only place I go for pizza now. So delicious!!!

The recent abysmal failure of an order was a cheese pizza and the bruschetta. The pizza looked like someone cut it up and dragged their knuckles along the cheese to push it up to the crusts the pizza was ice cold too. The bread was stale for the bruschetta. Decisions were made and the order was sent out this way. Clearly, nobody cares in the kitchen. I'm not sure what's happening there but Fiamme went from amazing, to inconsistently good, to just consistently awful- and they raised their prices too. This last order was so bad that I'm done with this place.

Was at Starbucks all morning with a friend and decided to walk in to grab some pizza to go. However, they had seating available immediately so we decided to stay. They sold both pizza's in whole as well as by the slice and were fairly priced for the portion. The only reason I docked the star is because they didn't ask if we wanted the Parmesan cheese before adding it. Personally, I thought it was delightful but the other one with us was not as pleased. I got the margarita pizza and it was fresh and hot, delicious really and they got cheese. I did try theirs and the cheese wasn't as good as the other but I still liked it. Though I'm not a picky pizza eater. That said, the quality of this Italian style really was amazing, and if you like this style I think you'll be pleased too! As a side note we had great attentive service.

Absolutely fabulous pizza. We chose to dine in although most of their orders are definitely carry out. The dine in seating is minimal and would not work well if there were a lot of large parties, but our party of four was immediately seated since everyone else was ordering take oOur pizza came out fast and everyone enjoyed it. Toppings were high quality, sauce was tasty. We also got the Nutella dessert pizza and it was an instant favorite.

Enjoyed a Monday Margherita Monday ( or marinara personal pizza half off 7.50. It's been a spell very enjoyable crust et al . South end of Safeway /cvs shopping near super cuts , bagel place & Chinese restaurant. Hit the spot reminding me of my summer in suburban Naples ! The people , pizza , wine ,& fireworks memorable like Fiamme Pizza w/o the fireworks! That's been a spell" too!

They have vegan cheese! Surprisingly good pizza. Loved the crust, thin & crunchy, which is a must.
