When the first Spinato's pizzeria opened in Scottsdale in 1974, their opening-day sales were a humble 69 cents – for an iced tea. Fast forward half a century, and the restaurant – now the official pizza of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury – boasts six locations across the Valley, including the beloved spot in Ahwatukee.
To celebrate this impressive milestone, Spinato's Pizzeria & Family Kitchen is throwing a year-long party with monthly specials. For October, co-owner and Ahwatukee resident Chris Kienlen has crafted a unique "The Slytherwich Mixto Pizza," a Cubano-inspired creation available through October 31. SpinatosPizzeria.com
