About WHOLE SLVCE Pizza
WHOLE SLVCE Pizza is a Tucson eatery serving pizzas by the pie or slice, along with salads and cannolis. Located in the Westside Mercado District, the restaurant brings a New York inspired approach to casual pizza, with large pies and slices prepared for pickup, delivery, or a visit to the shop.
The business is a collaboration between Travis and Ari, the owners of Falora Pizza, a Tucson favorite since 2013. WHOLE SLVCE Pizza pays homage to New York, a city both owners have called home, and especially to the neighborhood slice shops known for straightforward, artisan street food. Ari grew up with New York as his backyard, while Travis developed his culinary experience working with chefs in the city's dough-focused food scene, including at Sullivan Street Bakery.
That background informs the restaurant's approach to pizza. WHOLE SLVCE emphasizes slow fermentation, high-quality ingredients, and plant-based creativity. Its menu offers all pies in either a classic or vegan version, giving the concept room to explore both traditional and plant-based preparations. The pizzas are made in a triple-deck oven, then served as whole pies or individual slices, depending on the occasion.
The restaurant's format is designed for an easy, walk-up experience in the Mercado District. In addition to pizza, the menu includes salads and cannolis, with catering available for gatherings. Pickup and delivery provide additional ways to order, while the restaurant itself offers a casual setting for a slice or a full pie. The owners describe the concept as an extension of the same attention given at Falora to environment, service, and price point.
WHOLE SLVCE Pizza is part of the growing Westside Mercado District and adds a New York influenced slice shop to Tucson's local food landscape. Guests can start by viewing the menu or ordering a pie or slice for pickup or delivery. Those visiting in person can walk up to the restaurant for large-format pizzas, salads, vegan or classic pie options, and dessert.
