Great service and atmosphere… pizza it’s SUPER BASIC and you can get WAY BETTER pizza for less. I will come back to this place just for the service and the beers but definitely not for the pizza. Even Sam’s Club or Costco pizza tastes better… of course, my review my opinion. You can do exactly what I did and give it a try but if you don’t wanna visit the place, feel free to try one of this frozen pizzas cause you won’t be able to tell the difference. The pizza at this place tastes just like one of those. 🤷🏻‍♂️✌🏼

Hole in the wall gem! Best pizza in town. I crave this stuff.
There's a speakeasy bar if you walk down the hall. Huge slices. The cheese pizza is a must. Super affordable as well!

Chill downtown spot. They've got a surprisingly nice tequila selection (based on what I expected)
Good beers and pizza is HOT

Good place for a New York style slice. While they do not have many options for toppings when ordering by the slice, you can choose a few more with a whole pie. They taste good though. Great place to grab a slice to go or a drink at the bar in back. Not alot of seating so it may be better if going solo or in a small group.

Great slices, always a friendly bartender. What more could you ask for from a slice shop?

ITS JUST GAS STATION PIZZA If I could give this place 0 stars 100% would. I've eaten pizza here before and it was good in the past, but I will definitely, not be coming back. The Pizza was horrible. The crust was undercooked and they were not busy at all. Extremely overpriced for something I could go buy from a gas station.

First time in Tucson and arrived in an evening flight. Was hungry and came in for a slice and a beer. Service was good and the roasted street corn elote pizza was delicious and unique. Bartender was easy going and friendly on this somber evening, appreciated the good conversation. Keep it up guys!

Nice pizza place located downtown. We ordered two Margarita pizzas and one pepperoni. They were good but be prepared. Our bill was over $75.

I can wholeheartedly say that this is the best pizza I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. Mind you, I have traveled to several places, and none have come close to Empire.

Way too salty cheese. Way too salty tomato sauce. They should buy such with low sodium, even if it is more expensive. I could not eat it. Crust was excellent. Service was excellent.

Best Elote pizza! Literally one of my all time favorite pizza.
But be warned just go in and get the pizza. Trying to order not in person is the reason this place breaks my heart every other time I try to order. They literally never answer the phone. Like 80% of the time they won’t answer. Ordering online never works for whatever reason, it almost feels like a scam having to enter all of your card information to only have it say it needs a verification code that sends to a number that ends in 9999?… which is not the phone number I entered.
It’s sad cause the pizza is worth the try and attempt to find parking downtown. But I’m so tired of getting my hopes up for an easy pizza and then spend 30 minutes trying to order with no success.
Besides that it’s a great place that is open late! Pizza is always good, and there is a good beer selection.
