Our Story
Where mod pizza Began
Mod Pizza was born from a simple but powerful idea: that great pizza should be personal, fast, and made with the freshest ingredients. Founded in Tucson, Arizona, we set out to create a place where every guest could build their own mod pizza masterpiece — exactly the way they wanted it.
"We believe pizza is more than food — it's a canvas for creativity and a reason to bring people together."
What started as a single location on Oracle Road has grown into a beloved brand across the United States. Our modpizza experience puts you in the driver's seat: choose your crust, load up your toppings, and watch it come out of our stone-fire oven in minutes. Every pie is made fresh, to order, every time.
Through the years, the mods pizza community has grown into something truly special — loyal guests who return not just for the food, but for the warmth and energy of our restaurants. We are humbled by that trust and committed to earning it with every pizza we make.
