SAY ABOUT US

Best food on our whole trip pretty much

A surprisingly good pizza place! We actually liked it better than our high-dollar meal at our hotel. Nothing fancy but clean and just awesome pizza!

Friendly service and delicious pizza

I went on 2 different tours at the Grand Canyon and both tour guides recommended this restaurant. The workers were very friendly, my pizza was great, and since I had ordered the pizza to go one of the employees thought ahead to also give me a bag of plates and napkins so I was very pleased with the customer service. I wish I lived closer so I could go back and try the other items on the menu.

Sometimes I think that the quality of food served at a restaurant is inversely proportional to the creativity of the restaurant’s name. That would explain the quality of the pizza served at “We Cook Pizza & Pasta.” I suppose they so thoroughly wore themselves out learning how to prepare fresh, delicious pizzas that they had nothing left when it came time to give their restaurant a name.

Pizza (and pasta) choices here are pretty good. You are likely to find something you (and your finicky young ones) will enjoy.

We Cook Pizza and Pasta is located near the north end of Tusayan. If you are returning from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, it is located on your left just after the first traffic circle next to the Tusayan General Store.

Great Pizza Place!

This place makes a great pizza with a top-notch salad bar! We got 2 pizzas to go and one trip to the salad bar, to fill up a container they gave us. Pizza was great, didn’t take them more than 15-20 minutes to make it.

Great pizza and decent wings for outside of Buffalo

The pizza was excellent and we also ordered wings. They were “Buffalo” sized and they use Frank’s Hot Sauce – very, very good for wings outside of Buffalo, NY. Definitely recommend this restaurant. Prices were also reasonable.

Great Pizza

We stopped in here after leaving the Canyon and the service, food and prices are all good. I recommend this place to anyone who is in the area and looking for a quick bite to eat.

Don't let the name fool you!

Awesome selection of handcrafted pizzas and other Italian dishes, and I even got to get what I wanted, AWESOME chicken wings. It was the perfect finish to a day at the Grand Canyon. I’ll be back!!!

Terrific Service and Food

People who really care that you enjoyed your visit.

Three couples visited this restaurant for lunch. We went back again since the food and service was so outstanding. Tony and Katrina went out of their way to make sure our experience was a GREAT one. We would all highly recommend anyone visiting the Grand Canyon South Rim to be sure and make this restaurant part of your “must do’s!!” A big thanks to Tony and Katrina for taking such good care of your new Canadian friends….mmmmmmmmmmmmm great pizza too!
