Deserto Pizzeria is a hidden gem! This tiny spot serves up super delicious pizza that keeps me coming back for more. The service is fantastic, making the experience even better. The only downside is that the music can get pretty loud at times, but it’s worth it for the amazing food. Highly recommend checking it out!

Deserto was absolutely delicious!!!! We got their Tejas pizza and the flavor was amazing. I highly recommend this place. In addition the cannoli was perfect, not too sweet just perfect. Service was great and the atmosphere was lovely.

I want more pizza!!!!!! Two words....SO DELICIOUS! My family ordered the Stella and Bianca. The Stella is the classic pepperoni pizza and the Bianca is a white sauce pizza with lemon zest, ricotta, red onions, mozzarella, balsamic, arugula, and extra virgin olive oil. The Stella had such great flavor. We’ve eaten our share of pizzas from all over the country and this one is so tasty. The pepperoni itself was just that quality goodness that you only find fresh out of the deli. It’s so good. The Bianca blew me away! The balsamic is a must! It takes the flavors over the edge and makes it that much more flavorful. It’s good all by itself but that balsamic vinegar adds more height to the flavors and the ricotta rounds it all out to make it balanced. My one and only gripe....I wish it was bigger so I can eat more of it!!!! The sizes of the pizza are about the size of a small/medium. It was just too good and we left nothing on those pizza pans. We look forward to going back again very soon! Overall, HUGE recommendation for this place!

Great pizza and child inviting patio — likely the only one of its kind in Central. My kiddos are able to play on the picnic tables while we eat. Once we left a toy behind and they were sweet brought to remember and return it during our next visit. All around great neighborhood pizza place 3

Ordered a pepperoni pizza and it had excellent cheese coverage. The base bread of pizza was thin and very delicious. Other guest ordered a balsamic sauce salad and they enjoyed the fresh arugula. The indoor sitting is limited however the outside is spacious. I would come again to try a cannoli!

I recently visited Desert Pizza and had an incredible experience. The food was fantastic—I ordered the spicy pizza, and it was absolutely delicious. The perfect balance of heat, combined with the rich, smoky flavor from the wood-fired oven, made it unforgettable.

Delicious thin crust pizzas made in a wood burning open oven. I had take out the first time and this time visited just after opening on a Friday. I’m a big fan of their “Hot Stuff” pizza. The thinly sliced Serrano peppers and chili oil are a great combo. They have great wines and serve local beers. I had Aurellia’s Golden Age lager. The outdoor seating is inviting and they have outdoor heaters. The inside is quaint with limited seating area. I enjoyed the beautiful sunset over our mountains and the cool music. Sweet vibe, friendly staff and delicious pizza. I’ll have to try a new type of pizza next time. So glad they are in our neighborhood!

Kick-ass pizza. Get the mushroom one. If you're disappointed with it...schedule a counseling appointment for yourself. Service was amazing. All that's missing is the TouchTunes jukebox so I could fix their music. I'm glad they don't ruin pizza with ranch here!!
