Velvet Elvis Pizza Company

We were amazed by this place and will definitely return. Special shout-out to the hibiscus limeade and potato calzone!

Patagonia is the coolest little town in all of Southern Arizona. It has hills, and actual trees! Not just cacti. Not to mention this little gem of a pizza place. I'm not a big fan of thin pizza, but I tell you what, this thin pizza is worth the stop!

Luckily we chose to go to this restaurant for dinner during the Christmas time. We knew nothing about it and thought the name kind of goofy, but we went because a local person said we should try the food. This restaurant is the best Italian restaurant we have ever eaten at. The ingredients and their mixing produce sublime and delicate yet pronounced flavors. The salads compliment the pasta and pizza dishes beautifully and, frankly, are stand alone fare. We didn't know what to expect and once we tasted the food were sad that at that day, we were the only ones in there for dinner. Crazy, this is an amazing restaurant, an hospitable wait staff, and a chef who really really knows how to bake Italian food and create interesting salads. We thanked her profusely for being there. What a gem.

We stopped here for a late lunch and had a pineapple & pepperoni pizza which was very tasty. I also really liked the Arnold Palmer I ordered. All of the ingredients tasted exceptionally fresh. The service was friendly and efficient. The owner was there and came to chat with us which was really nice. She recommended some local hiking spots and sites to see which was a very nice added bonus as we are travelers.
