The mods pizza Story That Started It All
Mod Pizza was born from a simple but powerful idea: every person deserves a pizza that's 100% theirs. We started in a single location in Tucson, Arizona with a handful of passionate pizza lovers who believed that real food, made fresh with real ingredients, should be accessible to everyone.
From day one, we set out to flip the script on traditional pizza. Instead of choosing from a set menu, our guests build their own masterpiece — picking every sauce, topping, and crust to create something uniquely theirs. That spirit of personalization and creativity is still at the heart of everything we do.
Today, the modpizza experience has grown into a beloved institution across the United States, recognized not just for incredible food, but for the culture we've built: one that values people, community, and genuine connection.
- Freshly made dough and sauces every single day
- Over 30 premium toppings on every order
- Committed to sustainability and local sourcing
- A welcoming culture for team members and guests alike
