Moon Dogs Pizza: Fit to be Tried

Last night we needed to bring two pizzas to a pot luck event for my oldest daughter, so Moon Dogs Pizza was the call we made. Moon Dogs is a long-time standard in Sedona, located very unassumingly along 89A (the main drag through town). It's a family-run business and also is a provider to my other daughter's school lunch program. You should know that Moon Dogs is strictly pickup or delivery and not set up for a sit-down dinner and such.

I ordered the Hawaiian (Canadian bacon and pineapple) and the Veggie (every possible, reasonable vegetable was on there). The guy who took my order was friendly and conversational, and when asking for suggestions initially pointed me toward two meat-laden varieties. While not necessarily my bag, they sounded lovely enough if you are going for that kind of order. My pick-up order was ready on time and each pizza was about $20, though a single topping version runs about $15.

Generally speaking, the pizzas were a solid, well-loved choice at the event. The Hawaiian was devoured quickly by the kids, while the waistline-conscious adults ventured more toward the Veggie, which lasted a tad longer but eventually succumbed. Ingredients were fresh, crust fairly thick and overall nicely cooked.

The menu features lots of other items -- in a future review I'll tackle some of their other signature selections.

SFR Bottom Line: Order from Moon Dogs and you'll get a solid, tasty pizza but don't expect anything too out of this world. Definitely a step up from Domino's but shy of a designer pizza you get at a sit-down restaurant.
