Located at the intersection of 19th Avenue and Union Hills Drive, our Northwest Phoenix restaurant is a proud part of the Deer Valley community. As one of the best places to get pizza in the Valley, Sardella’s Pizza has proudly been a longtime local favorite since we first started delighting diners in the late 1980s. When you consider our deliciously positive reputation – and the countless rave reviews calling us the best pizza place in Phoenix – it makes sense that Arizona natives and visitors alike consider us a North Phoenix mainstay.
And we’re not the only reason that Northwest Phoenix is such a great place to call home; here are just a few of the other great businesses and organizations we’re proud to call our neighbors.
Juniper Library
Sharing the intersection of 19th Avenue and Union Hills Drive with our Northwest Phoenix location, Juniper Library is a popular community gathering place for residents of all ages. The library’s “Open Book” sculpture makes it stand out from other libraries in Phoenix, and its diverse collection of books, movies, and digital materials offers plenty for patrons to explore. At Sardella’s Pizza, it’s not unusual to see a few diners enjoying their favorite slice alongside a good book from the Juniper Library.
Deer Valley Dog Park
Rated as one of the best dog parks in Phoenix, the Deer Valley Dog Park is a popular spot for Arizona pups and their owners to enjoy the gorgeous desert weather. Your dog can run free in one of two gated areas, with separate sections for small and large breeds to play safely.
Designated doggie water fountains ensure that your pooch stays hydrated through even the most intense play sessions, while large ramadas provide plenty of shade from the Arizona sun. Swing by Sardella’s Pizza before hitting up the dog park, and order up a large pizza to go to enjoy picnic-style while your pup plays to his heart’s content.
Deer Valley Community Center and Pool
The Deer Valley Community Center and Pool is a local hang out spot that’s busy all year-round, hosting a huge variety of classes, recreational activities, and events for residents to enjoy. Cool off during the summer months with a day by the pool, or spend a morning learning a new hobby or exercising at the community center. Before you head home, refuel with a pizza and wings from Sardella’s, and you’ll have everything you need for a perfect day in Phoenix.
Knight Transportation
If you’ve ever been out on the Phoenix roads and freeways, odds are that you’ve seen at least a few trucks representing Knight Transportation. The Arizona-based company was founded in Phoenix, starting with just a single service center and a few trucks; but now, they’ve grown to include thousands of tractor-trailers traveling throughout the United States.
Sardella’s Pizza is just minutes from Knight Transportation headquarters in Phoenix and we wouldn’t be surprised if we’ve served pizza and wings to plenty of Knight Transportation drivers and employees over the years.
PetSmart (Headquarters)
For just about any pet owner, PetSmart is a regular destination for food, treats, toys, and all the other pet necessities you can think of – but did you know that the company started right here in Phoenix?
The first PetSmart opened its doors in Phoenix in the late 1980s, and it now operates more than 1,600 stores across the United States and Canada. Even though the company has grown considerably since those early years in Arizona, its headquarters are still located in Phoenix, only a couple of miles from Sardella’s Pizza.
