Pizzeria Bianco - Town & Country

Like so many others, I had heard about Pizzeria Bianco from the Netflix special. I was in Phoenix for a work trip and I made this my first stop for dinner. It didn’t disappoint. It was a Tuesday evening and I walked right in and was seated at the bar. Started off with the simple greens and they were great - it was a huge salad! I had the Rosa pizza and it was delicious. Loved the mix of flavors with the pistachios and cheese. It felt like I was in Italy again, but it had its own special taste. Received excellent service as well.

We split two white pies here — the Rosa and the Biancoverde — and while both are well-crafted, one clearly flexed harder. The Biancoverde was the star. Creamy ricotta, a generous snowfall of mozzarella, and fresh arugula made every bite lush, savory, and perfectly balanced. The cheese-to-crust ratio was dialed in, letting Bianco’s legendary crust shine: blistered, airy, chewy, and just crisp enough to snap before yielding. This is a white pie done with confidence. The Rosa leaned more restrained and minimalist. Parmigiano Reggiano, red onion, rosemary, and pistachio create a subtle, earthy profile — elegant, but compared to the Biancoverde, it felt quieter and less indulgent. Still good, just not the one I’d crave on the walk back to the car. The space is charming but buzzing, set in a busy plaza next to Trader Joe’s with Whole Foods nearby — very Phoenix, very convenient, very alive. Pro move: skip dessert here and swing by Trader Joe’s afterward. Let Bianco handle the pizza obsession; let TJ’s handle your sweet tooth.

Simple food done right. When you start with good ingredients, you get good food. We love the bread, greens and pizza at Pizzeria Bianco. You can eat it and still feel good. Service is always good. Attentive and times perfectly. Great seating indoors and out. There is also a bar area with seating. Book ahead.

Such a beautiful little spot in a great setting! This cozy Italian pizza and pasta shop is tucked into a charming plaza with hanging lights and a big tree right in the center, it’s got such a nice atmosphere. The staff were super friendly, the food came out fast, and everything tasted amazing. It’s about as close as you can get to a fancy pizza place without the price tag. Definitely check it out for lunch or dinner, they serve glass-bottle Cokes and some of the best pasta you’ll ever have.

I don’t really understand the hype. It’s a decent enough pizza restaurant, and frankly I’ve had better. Our pizza was too thin in the middle so it was soggy to eat. The toppings were good, everything had nice flavor. The chocolate cookies were amazing. Again, a good pizza place, but it’s definitely not worth the hype, or waiting in line for.
