Chris turned 40 at the end of 2025, and I wanted to do something special without throwing a big party that he wouldn’t appreciate. So I gave him what I knew he’d appreciate the most: 40 slices of pizza!
Our fourteenth stop was: Shy’s Pizza and Wings
50 E Guadalupe Rd #107, Gilbert, AZ 85234
Pizza Deal
We came while visiting Saguaro National Park. After a few days in Tucson, we made our way to Gilbert to spend some time with family. Normally we have pizza on Fridays, but vacation can throw these things off. This was actually as last meal in Arizona before heading home, and we got to take advantage of the Saturday Special, which was a 14″ pizza, 16 boneless wings, and garlic knots for $35. We also got an extra 14″ pizza on top of that. It was a pretty good deal!
Wings and Knots
The Saturday Special came with 16 boneless wings, and we both agreed the traditional wings would probably have been better. We tried the honey bbq and the medium buffalo. They were good enough, just nuthin special.
The garlic knots were pretty good, we liked them better than the wings.
The Pizza
This is where this place shines. The pizza was thin crust and pretty dang good! Way better than the wings and knots.
We got one Hawaiian and one plain cheese, and they were both super good.
The dough and the cheese were especially good, and it had the grease I love in a thin crust pizza. Chris didn’t love the sauce, but overall the pizza was well above average.
The Score
Chris rated his pizza a 7.9, a solid score! He would have rated in the 8’s had he liked the sauce a bit more.
