The first Barro’s Pizza restaurant opened in 1961 in Chicago. After a stint in California, the family moved to Arizona in 1980 and opened a pizzeria in Mesa. Now, there are dozens of Barro’s Pizzas around the Valley still using the family recipes. They do not have deep-dish pizza, but they have a variety of specialties, including thin crust.
IF YOU GO:
There are nearly 20 Barro’s Pizza locations in the Valley.
