I often meet a friend for lunch or dinner here and we love it! The food is so dependable as it's always made just right and tastes how you would hope and expect! We prefer the outdoor seating as sometimes it can be a little loud inside depending on how busy it is. And the staff is ALWAYS SUPER FRIENDLY and fast! They are on it! Oh, I almost forgot how pleasantly surprised and pleased I was that they have an espresso martini on their menu and it was really good! Sometimes a girl is just in the mood for one but many places don't have it on their bar menu.

This is one of my favorite Italian restaurants in town period this location is probably my favorite because I like where it's located in Chandler and I like the outdoor eating area. I've had the pizza here before I've had the calzones here before I've had the pasta here before everything is outstanding and well prepared. The service is usually good. The restaurant is clean and there are a ton of menu options. They have a great loyalty program I would recommend signing up for. I will note that I felt like my grandma's pasta dish was a little under sauced. Other than that everything was delicious. Definitely one of my go-to Italian restaurants..

1st time ever in Chandler, staying in the Hotel. It was fantastic. My Special Birthday night away from Tucson and a great change from Scottsdale, year after year. I knew the Ostrich would be closed but the Mgr Olean gave us a tour. Thank you ! I personally can't wait to return to try some different dishes, but the Uncle's Pizza was great. A very comfortable setting and fun. Saw some lawn games outside.

The bruschetta was really good. Was my first time trying bruschetta so can't compare it to other experiences but I would definitely reorder. The alfredo pasta w grilled chicken was also decent. Food came out decently fast.

Crust simply italian is absolutely wonderful! I dined there for lunch, very spacious and hip. I enjoyed the Caesar salad, it's big enough for two people to share. The buratta appetizer was next level delicious! Lots of buratta and italian meats. I also got the meatballs, great flavors. Darrin gave us the VIP treatment, the entire staff was very friendly. Great date spot and they have a darling speakeasy if you want to get crazy!

I made an online pickup order from here on Friday evening for 2 pizzas and meatballs. My order was ready within the given timeframe of 20-25 mins! I have had the slice of pizza and meatballs from the late night menu at The Ostrich and thought it was good. Close parking around the area is tough on the weekends but I was able to grab a close 5min parking spot on the side. My order: Meatball appetizer $13 - was $12.50. Comes with 4, some bread & side of marinara. It was a bit salty this time 20" Palermo $29 - there's very little chicken for the price and the bottom was a tad soggy but I still liked it 20" Supreme $29 - ordered this 1/2 without cheese because one person can't eat cheese. For the most part, it was but she tasted a few bits after taking a bite of one slice and looked for something else to eat. The other person who does eat cheese said the pizza was good Im sure the pizzas would've been much better eaten at the restaurant. The pizzas are huge! They only have one size. Some slices were too big but was an easy fix with a pizza cutter. I would go back again and try some others.

Another 5star visit to Crust! We went on Saturday evening, and we waited about 20 minutes for a table for two. The hostess did inform us that the misters were dripping on the table and asked if we wanted to wait for another table. We were hungry, so we took that table. It was kind of annoying at first, but we put some napkins down where the two misters were dripping and it was fine. This was our first time ordering pasta at Crust! Other than their wine pairings dinner during covid in 2020 (you guys should do some in person now!!). I grew up in an Italian household, so I am a big critic when it comes to eating pasta at a restaurant - I know Crust is legit when it comes to authentic Italian, so I was curious to try some new stuff. I opted for the Spicy Rigatoni Sausage - I LOVED it and will definitely be ordering it again. The sauce was the perfect combination of creamy and spicy. My husband had Grandma's Pasta, and he loved all the meat that came with it. It didn't have quite enough sauce for me, but it was the perfect amount for my husband. We had good service, as always. And as I've said in the previous review, make sure you join the rewards program!
