Pizza to the Rescue opened in April on Indian School Road. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hunter Rodgers grew up in Phoenix and worked at Vincent\u2019s on Camelback during high school and college. After graduating, he moved to Los Angeles and worked in investment banking before returning to the Valley to work in brand strategy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It wasn\u2019t until a few years ago \u2013 when the world was put on hold \u2013 that Hunter came up with a new idea. One that focused on pizza\u2026and puppies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunter\u2019s longtime girlfriend, Geri Hormel, founded Almost There Pet Rescue on Indian School Road. The business started out of a home in 2013 but officially moved to its facility in 2020. The property has three buildings \u2013 the largest is home to the rescue, but the others sat empty for a while until the duo came up with Pizza to the Rescue (PTTR).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe purchased the building in 2019. As Geri and I walked through it, we started recognizing the possibilities, and it was like, \u2018Okay, this needs to be a restaurant,'\u201d Hunter said.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming up with the idea was easy. However, getting the restaurant up and running took a bit more time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cStarting a project in the middle of a pandemic was a nightmare. The City of Phoenix was so backed up with everything, it took us 18 months to get the permit to start renovations,\u201d Hunter said. \u201cThe easiest thing to get was our liquor license.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The restaurant officially opened in April 2024. Hunter said the wait was worth the result.\u00a0Pizza to the Rescue\u2019s mission statement is \u201ceat pizza, save puppies,\u201d and in that spirit, 25 percent of proceeds from pizza sales go toward Almost There Pet Rescue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The menu includes appetizers, pizzas, pasta and desserts. Terra Farms (out of Prescott) provides the beef, while other local purveyors provide produce and other ingredients. The dishes are Italian American-based, and all of them are wood-fired.\u00a0Everything is made from scratch, by hand, every day \u2013 even the mozzarella cheese. The pizzas are individual-sized, what Hunter calls a hybrid of Neapolitan and New York-style pies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
The pizzas are handmade and cooked in a wood-fired oven built specifically for PTTR. Photo courtesy of Joslynn Miller<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe menu was born out of my passion for cooking with incredible ingredients \u2013 it\u2019s stuff I\u2019d make for my family and friends,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wood-fired oven is a thing of beauty. It weighs almost 10,000 pounds and was built specifically for PTTR by Stefano Ferrara, an oven manufacturer in Naples, Italy. There are only two others like it worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vibe inside PTTR is \u201cunexpected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u201cYou hear \u2018Pizza to the Rescue,\u2019 and you might picture a no-frills pizza spot. It\u2019s a goofy name,\u201d Hunter said. \u201cBut the inside is eclectic, with a funky Spanish\/Mediterranean influence.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cocktail menu includes 75 wines \u2013 65 direct from Italy \u2013 and 150 spirits, focusing on tequila, mezcal, scotch, rum, bourbon and Japanese whiskey.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

The signature drinks are inspired by cocktails Hunter tried during his travels, but he also included classic drinks like an old-fashioned and an Aperol spritz. Four beers are on draft: Peroni, Scottsdale Blonde and Tower Station (a nod to Arizona!), and a dark hefeweizen direct from Germany\u2014Hunter\u2019s favorite brew.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was fun to build out the list and put something together that\u2019s exciting and unique,\u201d he said. \u201cWe approached the drinks the same way as the food \u2013 everything made by hand. The citrus is juiced daily, and syrups are made in-house.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the biggest draw \u2013 aside from the food, of course \u2013 is the puppies. Tuesday through Saturday, volunteers from Almost There hang out on the restaurant\u2019s lawn from 5-7:30 p.m. with puppies that are available (or going to be) for adoption. Hunter said the rescue is the whole reason they do what they do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe so love the support we see for the dogs,\u201d he said. \u201cWith 25 percent of pizza sales going to Almost There, we\u2019ve already donated $200-$500 a night toward the rescue. We\u2019re passionate about food, dining, service and the neighborhood, but also about dogs. We want to be the most dog-friendly restaurant, as far as the health codes allow us to be.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesdays, the eatery hosts trivia, and Wednesday is Spaghetti Western Day,\u00a0when\u00a0guests can get a dry-aged Japanese wagyu cut of beef cooked over a live fire. The patio area has music and misters and can accompany live music in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis experience has been really fun,\u201d Hunter said. \u201cI\u2019m excited to see happy customers and kids and get amazing feedback on the food and atmosphere. I love feeding people and am happy when they enjoy their experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eatery is located at 2601 E. Indian School Road, Phoenix.
