Fired Pie Tucson

I came to Fired Pie with a coworker after a long morning meeting. It was just 11am and they had just opened. This was my first visit to a place like this, make your own pizza place. Anyway, we were promptly greeted by the Fired Pie crew. My coworker, ordered her non-fat selections without any eye rolling or groans from the staff. Than I ordered my low to no carb selection of a salad, also with no eye rolling or groans from the staff. I then, couldn't help but notice the fired pookie...so, I gave in and ordered a chocolate chip one as well. We each paid for our meals (under $12 each) and had a seat against the wall, under a speaker. Although, we just ended a meeting we still wanted to recap, but again we were up against the wall, underneath a speaker. My coworker got up and asked them to please lower the music and guess what!?!? They did- without a care in the world, it subtly played in the background and we were able to continue our meeting recap without yelling at one another. About 5 minutes into our conversation my healthy sized salad came out with perfectly fresh romaine, garlic croutons (which were big enough to pick off), romano cheese and a side of caesar dressing were there. I had snatched a few lemons from the drink station and squeezed some on there (yes, fresh squeezed lemon on caesar salad is the bomb!!). A few seconds after my lunch was brought out, my coworkers pizza was brought out and she didn't have any complaints as we both sat in silence, enjoying the firework show in our mouth. She literally ate her entire pizza. About half way through our lunch that damn Fired pookie came out...ooh weee, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. It wasn't massively oversized like you'll find at other restaurants that serve it, it was perfectly portioned! So, if you don't know what this pookie is, it is a fired chocolate chip cookie dough topped with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream...the cookie isn't fully cooked but it isn't totally raw either, it's like the perfect medium and then the REAL vanilla bean ice cream just tantalizes your senses even more. I felt like I died and went to heaven. Once we were both done and pretty full, we left. It was good first time experience for me and I'll definitely be back. I appreciated the Fired Pie crew's attitude, work ethic and ability to handle picky eaters without making stupid and unnecessary noises, faces or even mumbling under their breath.

This is a great place. You can order off the menu or design your own pie and since the crust is thin, but still delicious, it can be as light or heavy as you want it. The staff is friendly without talking at you in "corporate speak," the food preparation area wide open and clean. The staff remembers you from visit to visit, which is really nice. Salads too, though that's not what I go there for. Great lemonade.
