Great place with a large /long bar area for bit drinks and pizza. Crave has more to offer than just great tasting pizza. For the quality of the food and the atmosphere you get real value for the money you spend. I would not consider Crave expensive at all, but I got more than I expected. The service was super friendly and accommodating. The shop is smelling in size but has some outdoor seating. This is our new go to pizza place.

Went here on friend's recommendation. Small place 2-3 tables with about 15 seats at the bar. Outdoor seating available. Very tasty sauce with a lot of choices for pasta which is made on site. Meat balls, sausage, etc. Good choice of draft beer.

Friendly staff, excellent pizza. My wife and I ate there a year ago. Service was good, the pizza we ordered was excellent. It's a little pricey but overall an excellent place to eat.

This place is well worth a visit- 4.5 if I could give a half star.Cons- beer bites were bad- dry, flavorless. We will try to cheese bites next time.Cons- we wanted pasta, dry, with olive oil and they said they couldn't do it. They have olive oil. Didnt make sense. Not a reason to not come, though.Pros- I had the butter crust which is really a Chicago deep dish with less sauce. Amazing It was so good. And I am a New Yorker. LOL This will be my go to with meatball and pepperoni.Pros- Thin crust- so good as well. Olive oil base with extra cheese. It was delicious.Pros- Server was great- forgot her name but she was awesomePros- Owner was right there- very kind, smiling, talking.This is definitely worth a visit and next time I hope I can push it to a 5!

Finding good Chicago style pizza outside of Chicago is tough, but Craze Pizza definitely hits their mark. Had some of the best deep dish and tavern pizza I've had outside of
Very little in-house seating, but there is some patio seating or seating at the bar. Service was very good--attentive and polite. Pizza to order took a while, but was worth the wait. Most business seemed to be takeout. Our special requests were accommodated without question. Price was fair. Pizza was very tasty with no shortage of toppings.

Food good, service poor. Couldn't reach them by phone. Drove down they said they had an oven down so they took their phone off the hook. We waited in parking lot took 20 minutes longer than originally promised. Got home to find out part of order missing. No way to treat customers.

Called in an hour before closing to get a small pizza. The lady told me it would be ready at 8:45 and when I got there, she told me she never sent the order in and at the point the kitchen was closed! Waste of time as I had driven 20 minutes just to get it.

I am from Northern Illinois where I believe we have the best pizza anywhere. Crave is the closest to home I have found in Phoenix metro area. Thin crust and butter crust are amazing. (Haven’t had the deep dish yet) The only negative is they need a location closer to where I live. Very friendly staff as well.
