La Piazza Glendale AZ

Rex, Director of the Glendale AZ Arts Program, recommended La Piazza, 5803 W. Glendale Avenue, Glendale AZ 85301, 623-847-3301 for lunch. Kio and I, totally exhausted from setting up our installation and he was being attacked by his allergy, crawled into this place that was almost directly across the street from were we installed our sound installation. It's a long one room cafe with details that are Italian-like and lots of tables. In the center to the right is a huge brick room that is the oven. First, I thought it was a partition but it ended up being the oven the pizza's were coming out of. Hey, why can't we have a place like this in LA? It seems all of our great pizza places are fuffy expensive places. La Piazza is family-run and serves totally affordable excellent pizza. We ordered the "Italian Stallion". What a goofy name but we wanted meat and were kind of goofy ourselves. The pizza, thin crust was so excellent. The dough was superb, crisp, light, and fluffy inside. The meats were all high level and the sauce was mouth-watering.
