Pizza slices are generous, relatively wholesome, and delicious; everything you'd expect from a large, airy, bright, and welcoming Whole Foods Mkt. It has a small sports bar and offers burgers, fries, and many kinds of craft beers, with specials every day. I do not recommend the one on Speedway - too small and cramped and pizza there disappointing. Whole Foods on Oracle is an equally good choice for its bar, food buffets, and large size.
