Pizza places in the United States run from a counter with two stools and a stack of boxes to a full sit-down pizzeria with a bar, and most neighborhood shops do all three things at once: dine-in, takeout and delivery. Ordering by phone is still common and often faster than an app, and many independents charge less when you call direct because there is no platform fee. Sizes are usually listed in inches (a small around 10", a large 14", an extra-large 16" or more), and a large feeds two to three adults. Slices are sold from a display case at New York-style counters and reheated to order; whole pies take 15-25 minutes at a busy shop. Most spots take cards and mobile pay, though a few older pizzerias remain cash-only, so check the door or the listing before you order.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 12–10 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

My friend and I had been meaning to try Deserto Pizzeria for weeks. We finally got to it! The spicy habanero sauce with pepperoni and burrata 🤌🏽. We were recommended to balance it with a Bianca pizza . Great recommendation! Amazing crust! Not shown is the cannoli which was also amazing. Great view of the city star and great music. Parking was easy and we did not wait. We went on a Friday around 9pm. Definitely will go again.

Deserto Pizzeria in El Paso boasts a fantastic location and solid service, but the kitchen needs to refine its execution to truly shine. The vibe at this spot is excellent, making it a great place to hang out, and the staff is genuinely welcoming and attentive. When it comes to the food, the flavors are definitely there. The pizza sauce is bright and well-seasoned, and the overall taste profile shows immense promise. However, the cooking technique leaves room for improvement. The pizza crust was quite chewy and floppy, lacking the structure needed to hold up the toppings. A major area of growth lies in mastering the undercarriage; it simply needs more crispness and char to elevate the texture from mediocre to memorable. Unfortunately, the technical missteps carried over into dessert. The cannoli filling had split, resulting in a grainy, separated texture that marred what should have been a rich, smooth treat. Despite these execution flaws, Deserto Pizzeria has a lot of potential. The foundation—great atmosphere, hospitable service, and good baseline flavors—is already firmly in place. With a few precise adjustments to their baking techniques and dessert prep, they could easily beco

Great pizza baked in a wood fired oven. Wife and I had a strong pizza craving and couldn't wait to get to the hotel in Lordsburgh. The seating was outdoor, the temp was 95 degrees but the patio was cooled and misted making it very comfortable. This was a good choice the earlier the were spot on.

This pizza was DELICIOUS!!! The bread was incredible! It was just the right amount of chewy, and the ingredients were fresh. Doesn’t overdo it on the sauce or the cheese. It was PERFECT! And a cute patio as well. And the music was jamming, great atmosphere.

The food is good. Daughter likes vegan pizza. Son was ok with his cheese pizza. Wife liked her ‘roni pizza and burrata. The pizza crust bread was delicious and super cheap. The marinated olives were delicious. The overall cost was a bit high for four people but probably reasonable in this market for 3 pizzas, two appetizers, and one wine glass. They take Apple Pay. Seating inside is very very limited for families, and parking in the parking lot is very hard. We street parked. We would come back if we lived in town.
