Serves meat, vegan options available. A pizza and wine bar that uses mostly locally sourced ingredients. About half the pizzas can be made vegan by substituting Daiya (which they always have on hand). Has limited other vegan choices. Slightly fancier atmosphere but child-friendly. Large space with indoor and porch seating. Open Mon-Thu 11:00am-8:00pm, Fri-Sat 11:00am-9:00pm, Sun 11:00am-8:00pm.

Fresh Food - Edit
Everything is so fresh. Vegan cheese for pizzas, vegan gf crust available. Can modify salads to be vegan. All delicious. Crust is a little thin for my tastes but still yummy.

Vegan cheese. That’s it - Edit
The menu doesn’t list the vegan cheese. The staff had to go ask. They still have it. Was a good pizza and I modified a salad without cheese. But this place can’t be bothered to buy the $6 carton of non-dairy milk for coffees. I do not understand restaurants. My dad and brother live in Abq, and I dread eating out due to the lack of vegan options in town. In a bright blue state. Makes no sense that we vegans eat better in Phoenix.
Read morePros: Daiya cheese, Salads to modify (with no price breaks)
Cons: No non-dairy milk for coffees, No desserts

Great salad and pizza! - Edit
The salads have so many veggies and the pizza was great. Even the bread was vegan. The waitress was very knowledgeable when asked about vegan options.

Tasty, but room for improvement - Edit
I ordered the pizza with daiya, my husband got cow-milk cheese. His came out cooked to perfection, my crust was burnt to a crisp and hard on the bottom. We have had this issue elsewhere when people are not familiar with daiya. Next time we go, we'll ask then to cook them the same amount of time and let them know the daiya does not need to look melty. The sauce was tasty.

Pros: Vegan pizza!, Full bar
Cons: Not much in the way of protein for vegans, Burnt crust

Easy pizza - Edit
Pizza is Pretty safe bet for vegans. Just drop the cheese and you're good. This place one ups it with daiya.
Read moreThey use a bit much, which means it got a little soupy. I find daiya best when used sparingly so a to add the flavor without the goop.
The cheese pizza we ordered was well received. Sauted broccolini was too oily. Maybe okay if eaten there...
Price was reasonable.
Cons: Vegan is an add-on. They try but it's not their ma

Yum! - Edit
We tried two different pizzas, an eggplant based one and an white pizza with artichokes. Both were good, but we both liked the white pizza the best. Awesome crust! They carry Daiya cheese, or of course you could do cheeseless if that's your jam. They had a strawberry-lemon sorbetto for dessert, but we were stuffed by then. I thought the $8 for a small pizza with local ingredients and daiya was a really reasonable price, especially in the nicer atmosphere. Great service and food, very nice for a date night.
Read morePros: Carries daiya, awesome crust, good prices
Cons: it does serve meat
