Rotten produce and gaslighting.
We ordered two pizzas both with Arugula greens on top. We always appreciate that the greens are served on the side, and we were handed two boxes of greens.
Thus time, the greens were rotting.
This time, we were given actually rotting, slimly, black and rotting arugula. It was clearly not edible. When I went to turn one of two bad boxes in, they swept it away and said, “this is washed and sterilized, you must have just gotten one or two bad leaves.” “This new batch looks just the same!”
Dear reader, you decide. I’m almost glad I went up with only one if the two boxes so I could post what I was served.
They insisted it was fine, but blanched when I said I had already taken photos.
Make a mistake? Please apologize and fix it. Don’t blame the customer for being picky.
Further, sterilizing and washing arugula does not keep it from growing bad if it is too old. The staff behind the counter, all three of them, insisted my arugula was just fine.
It was rotten.
First photo showed original arugula rotting on left, and a fresh box on the right. It was so bad it was sticking to the inside of the box! Weigh in and tell Sauce if you think this is slimy and rotten. The one intact leaf had other crap and goo stuck to it, as shown.

So over all sauce is good! I’ve eaten here a few times and the food is good! We ordered food for my job and made a mistake of placing it for the wrong day the manager Gary was so helpful so thank you to that man! Also, Sarah/ Sara was really sweet and so nice! However there’s a woman that works up front who’s name is “Burgundy” (this is what I was told her name was) who was soooo rude and just wasn’t polite and I’m sorry that she’s having a bad day or a bad life but I’m so appreciative of them taking care of us!

Came in 40 min before they closed and the girlie pop taking our order was super sweet and helped us with no attitude! The guys in the back were chatting about us and laughing but that’s fine we came in pretty late to be fair. We waited outside for our orders because we had our friends service dog but when our order was ready she came out and danced a bit to the song we were vibing to and gave us our order! Give her a damn raise, shes a sweet heart with exceptional customer service!

First time eating at this establishment as a guest
from an invitation from a couple friends. Everything looked really good on the menu and decided on the prosciutto and fig pizza and roasted veggie salad. The salad could have used more Roasted Vegetables and less cranberries, but ok. Really disappointed in the pizza though. It had very little flavor for the small amounts of cheese, prosciutto and fig jam? The only thing that didn’t disappoint was the selection of brewed teas which were all good. After hearing so, so things about this place, I’m glad to have finally try it, to know that what I had heard about Sauce was true. Mediocre at best. There’s a better place for Italian food up the street on the left side of Camelback as you head East. Now that place never disappoints and everything has flavor. You’ll have to figure that one out.

Great food, friendly helpful staff ~ ample parking and dining room space. Just had pasta and meatballs this trip ~ so good! The pizza is just as wonderful. Get the chocolate chip cookie for desert, it’s worth the trip alone! Outside eating area is a real nice touch when the weathers not too hot. Love that they clear the plates ~ leave a trip, these kids have a great attitude and deserve it!

Ordered food at around 12:10 pm, still sitting and waiting for a single bowl of noodles at 1:15pm. No one could get me an update. I understand yall got a catering order and a bunch of high schoolers came in, but im just gonna get a refund and go home lol ive worked this kinda of job and had 20min max wait during catering. front staff is nice, kitchen staff wouldn’t talk to me when I asked about my food just pointed towards someone else.

If you don’t get your food there at the counter it’s gonna be nasty. I ordered a pizza and Mac and cheese 30 min before closing only for the manager to tell me they couldn’t because of “the system”. Anyway the pizza was gross and tasted like it was sitting in their hotbox for an hour which they usually forget to refill the water inside so it stays moist. The location was ok 5 years ago it’s hard to believe it’s somehow gotten worse.

My first visit, and it was truly amazing. Initially, I was giving Service 4 stars, but I have to give a 5 star with explanation. The server brought us the wrong pizza. That in itself was not really an issue because we told her, unfortunately my sister didn’t realize she had taken a slice out of the pizza. When she’s hungry she doesnt pay attention at all, unless it’s seafood. However, the server, instead of just checking at the front, she immediately began to shift the blame on how the ticket was written. My concern was to make sure that the person to which the pizza belong get theirs. The greatest thing, when she finally returned, she said we could have that pizza and she brought us our correct order. All in all the server was awesome and we’ll be back.

We found our new pizza/italian food place, it’s a cute restaurant with nice decorations, very clean. Service was very polite and helpful. The food had great homemade flavor. we ordered a meatball pasta and a Supreme pizza, and they were both fantastic, the 1st bite of that pizza the best of it all. We now have a dog, so we are always looking for places with patios where she is welcome, and this is one of them.
Two suggestions:
1 – Some music on the patio to have a better atmosphere.
2 – Bring food all together. I ended up looking at my friend ate his food about 5 minutes until mine came out.
This will now be our new spot. Thank you.

Great salad, pasta, panini and pizza offerings! Nice seating areas both inside and out. Arrived to elementary school field trip filling the seats so a bit chaotic and noisy. Will try again. The delicious roasted harvest vegetable salad and Bianca pizza with added fresh garlic were phenomonal! Please support this business!
