A national artisan pizza chain is opening its first Southern Arizona location in Oro Valley.
A liquor license application was submitted last month for a zpizza Artisan Pizza & Tap Room spot at 11165 N. La Cañada Drive, across the street from the Oro Valley Public Library.
The Southern California-based chain promotes pizzas that “are better tasting, but also better for you,” according to founder Sid Fanarof, who is featured in a YouTube video on the company web site.
Zpizza uses dough made from non-GMO wheat flour, skim mozzarella from Wisconsin, MSG-free pepperoni and all-organic toppings for its culinary creations.
It has locations in 14 states, including two in Phoenix. Internationally, you can find them in South Korea, Vietnam and the United Arab Emirates.
