I’ll start with, the pizza is good! We had the chorizo hot honey one and cheesy bread. We were a little disappointed that the menu wasn’t what it used to be and had no other choice but to get pizza really. Based off of previous reviews we thought there would be more options. But the place itself is awesome and has so much potential to be a very popular location again.

It was really delicious food! We had a late night and wanted dinner at 10pm and everything was closed or only serving drinks in the “ghost town” area and then someone recommended this place. So tha nkful we came here and they were about to stop serving regular food (other than pizza) and they were accommodating to us! Thank you! We had the following: Green Chile Mac’N cheese (5 ), Pork belly sandwich (5 ), Prickly Pear Margarita On the rocks (5 ) and then another one frozen (2 ) mainly because it was really salty. My husband said to the waitress he didnt like the frozen one and was nice about it. When we paid the bill, they were super nice and took off his frozen margarita! Thank you!
Only issue was the parking lot was not lit up at all so it was hard to see where to walk and park.

Cool spot with a great vibe, but do not come here for food.
We were told the wait would be 45 minutes to an hour, which lined up perfectly with a comedy show starting soon. Instead, the food took over two and a half hours to come out which is hard to justify given how simple the menu is.
The bartenders were excellent and the comedy show was solid, which is honestly the only reason we stayed. The kitchen, however, clearly couldn’t keep up and didn’t seem prepared, even though locals said the days we visited are usually very busy.
Definitely a unique place and worth stopping by for drinks and entertainment, especially on slower days. But if you’re hungry, eat somewhere else first. Ordering food here feels like a gamble you probably won’t win.

Hands down the best restaurant in town! Sampled around and just started coming back here because the food is SOOO GOOD!
Reading the other reviews I need to comment that the menu has expanded to include multiple options besides pizza, and all of them are fresh and creatively seasoned.
Ww came mid week and on a Friday evening and had our meals in a completely normal serving time. Looks like they are past the earlier growing pains and are now setting the standard for the best restaurant/bar anywhere in the region.

Food was ok. Sevice was not good. Order at the bar, seat yourself. Outdoor seating really run down. Food was brought out timely, but the waitress just stuck the two plates out, “who has what.” Not hello, not how you doing, but who has what? I would have had a second beer, but why hassle with it.
At check out, tip was 20%, 25% or 30%. I generally tip well for good service, above average, but not self service and “who has what?”

The Mexican Margherita pizza here is the best I’ve ever had. The crust was insanely top-tier and I don’t typically eat crust. It was thin, with a slight crisp, a slight chewiness/bite to it, wasn’t overly sweet like some places have it, and was very, very well prepared and fermented. I can’t even exaggerate how good the crust is, it’s insanely good. And that’s just the crust. The tomato sauce and cheese with herbs and a lime to cut through the savoriness of the pizza, never had lime with a pizza before, was truly amazing. The limited time menu with the banh mi pork belly and some beef sandwich, forgot the name, was alright. Nothing to write home about with those and wouldn’t get it again. But the pizza! The pizza, yes! The owner was very nice as was the bartender when they chatted with us. We sat at the bar and food took about 15-20 minutes to come out and service was friendly and educational. The owner was super passionate about the food on his menu and I could tell. I would definitely come back.

The Mexican Margarita Pizza was a standout choice, and the salad was equally fresh and flavorful.

This is an amazing restaurant for pizza under new ownership. I can’t remember another their names but the two male bartenders on Saturday night were extremely friendly and helpful! The pizza is incredible! It’s in a tie with one other pizza place of our favorite pizza ever! The crust is phenomenal! The drinks were excellent and the atmosphere was incredible!

Be aware this is not the same La Kiva menu that is posted on Google maps. The restaurant has reopened with a limited pizza menu. With that being said we had the Pico Pepperoni. It seems like an unlikely combination but IT WORKS!!! IT WAS DELICIOUS. We ate the whole thing. Also had the cheese garlic bread, which is more like a very thin crust cheese pizza…but it was good too! If you like pickles and margaritas…try the Pickle Margarita. It won’t disappoint. The atmosphere is very nice and interesting. With both inside and outside seating. The bar was hoppin’ . Highly recommend!!!
