Crusty’s Pizza

Delicious pizza and excellent customer service! We arrived almost at closing and they still were very friendly. I will definitely come back.

Favorite place to stop on our way back into town after coming off the mountain.
Best pizza anywhere

I have eaten here a bunch in the last 2 years I have lived in the Verde. When its good its fantastic however, when its bad its really bad! If there are a lot of people dining in save your money and walk out. They have great lunch specials and the people are always friendly. Walking into Crusty’s is like walking into a 1980’s pizzeria it kinda charming in the old building ad 80’s look.

From the outside, Crusty’s looks like a dive. Don’t be fooled. The menu is fantastic. The pizzas are wonderful, and the salads are large. As for the cheesy garlic bread, it’s incredibly addicting. As for the staff, everyone is very friendly and courteous. This place is worth the stop.

We were driving home from Flagstaff. The kids wanted pizza so we from this place on Unilocal.Ordered our pizza to go. I was shocked at how inexpensive this place was. The service was great and the pizza tasted amazing. So glad we found this place. It will be our go to stop!

As good as it gets for pizza in Camp Verde. Plus the antipasto salad is wonderful. We don’t live in Camp Verde but we almost always stop in here any time were passing through… you should too!

It wasn’t my first choice but we ate there and did not get sick.
pros:
— service
— the one and only food joint in a radius of approx. 5 miles
— they have pizza
cons:
— wait time for 1 «calzone» (or something that bore some vague resemblance to a calzone) and 1 lasagna (its taxonomy notwithstanding…)
— the food itself: the «lasagna» — happily swimming in a pool of its own (?) grease and yearning to land under more appreciative sets of olfactory and visual sensors.
— the «calzone»: I swear, it had precisely the same exact taste as the lasagna, meaning none.
— salad: straight out of the bag with no radishes, mushrooms or olives and a packet of dressing on the side. Seeing the rest of the reviews, I guess there is a possibility we might have been the unlucky ones…
— weird location, weird décor (a sort of paradise lost with a creepy monkey fixation)
All in all, quite a weird day too.

We came here because it was close to the hotel and highly reviewed.
Plusses: smells amazing, adorable murals, friendly staff.
Minuses: the pizza.
The cheese was basic and OK. The sauce was practically nonexistent. The crust was almost just a loaf of white bread. It managed to be ridiculously thick, like 99% of the pizza thick, while simultaneously wimpy enough to collapse under the weight of the toppings. I so rarely indulge in pizza, and when it’s this disappointing, I feel really ripped off. It was just like eating a ton of bread. The main flavor was from the red pepper I sprinkled on top. The pizza was cut in a crazy way, so that no two slices were the same size, and so that there were two cheese pieces on each pizza that ended up with pepperoni on them.
The kitchen screwed up our order so we ended up getting 2 pizzas for the price of one, but in the long run, I would have rather had none of this pizza.
We also had a salad, which was pretty plain. The dressing came in foil packs. The salad was the best part of the meal.
The staff is great. This restaurant was jam packed, with most tables full and a brisk takeaway business filing in and out, and there were only 2 women up front, waiting tables and running the register. These ladies are to be commended and tipped well. I usually visit Camp Verde once a year, but I will not be eating here again.

Stopped by this place with my group after a long hot hike at Fossil Creek. The place is definitely divey, but that’s just the fun of it all. We went for the Crusty Deluxe and a Pineapple & Ham pizza. The deluxe came with bacon, green bell peppers, onions, and pepperoni. Overall, a nice mix and the dough itself was very Pillsbury-​like. In the end, I felt like something coming out of a can and placed in the oven. Not necessarily a bad thing cause home-​made food is definitely welcomed to my palate!
What really got to me was the service. They were booked, but were able to handle our group of 13. Our server was snappy and quick to the punch. I was somewhat of being belligerent in a fun way, but with every remark she came back with something snippy, which I can definitely appreciate.
Overall, great pizza dive to grab a quick bite and beer with a service one could only wish they had every time they go out for dinner — wink! — Enjoy!

Chances are, you will never ever eat at this place, but if you happen to be in BFE and you see this place pop up on your nearby map, I’d say go for it. We were in a time crunch but were sooo hungry, so this is where Unilocal steered me.
Yeah, it’s just pizza, but you remember being a kid and going to those pizza places with the leather booths and they would bring you a pitcher of soda at your table? It’s that type of place and I kinda liked it. The pizza was pretty good… the ingredients are fresh and the crust was thicker than I’m used to, but I love bread, so I’m good with that. It was all around cheesy goodness. I’m happy. And fat.
