First and foremost, it has an extensive gluten-free menu. They even have mock flour tortillas. I would consider El Charro's an upscale Mexican restaurant, but the prices are still very reasonable. And of course, they are famous for their carne seca that can be had in various dishes such as tacos. Sì Charro's, I love this place and have eaten at all of their restaurants in the Tucson area.

Sorry for not writing a review sooner. This review is for November of 2021. Better late than never! This was our first time eating in a MOD Pizza. I was so excited when I saw they had gluten-free pizza crust. This restaurant didn't disappoint! The pizza was outstanding! We dined at this restaurant twice while we vacationed in Oro Valley, staying at the Hilton El Conquistador. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor dining. It's a clean restaurant with really clean bathrooms! All of the employees were very friendly with smiles on their faces. That's always nice to see, specially while traveling. We loved MOD Pizza so much we made sure to seek them out in other states while we traveled back to Georgia. (Another great MOD Pizza was located in Terrell Texas!) I can honestly say this is the best gluten-free pizza I have ever eaten!

Absolutely loved this restaurant! The atmosphere was great, with the modern decor and relaxed feel. Our service was top notch with a super friendly server who answered all of our questions. They had so many fantastic options for gluten free food and our server was incredibly helpful with that. The food was outrageously good!! My whole party was so happy with their food. They had the best gluten free bun for a burger that I've had at any restaurant. Would 100% come back here on any return trip to Tucson - don't miss this gem!!

I ordered pizza from here twice. Both times it was floppy and doughy. The first one was Gluten free so I gave that one the benefit of doubt and was also a pick up order. The second order was for delivery of a large pizza regular. It came fast but again I was disappointed with the flop.

We've dined at Charred Pie two, perhaps three times, in the last couple of months. We have found their sandwiches (!!! who knew that a 'pizza parlor' would create such sumptuous fare???) to be outstanding, especially (in my view) the grilled cheese. Wow. Don't be put off by the odd name for it (I have forgotten the exact name, possibly because the name doesn't do it justice). And, my wife just loves the buffalo chicken sandwich. -- Of course, there is far too much bread in both of these sandwiches, but the bread is high quality and tasty. Still, if you are looking to avoid gluten, Charred Pie is probably a place to avoid, as they don't sell much (if anything) that isn't filled with gluten. In any event, on the gluten-OK days, I highly recommend Charred Pie, with the following provisos: 1.) Until Saturday (when we ate there after seeing the moving "Conclave"), I had just thought that the service was slow. It does take 'a while' to get your food. But, then I realized that this is, likely, intentional on the part of the management. Unlike some places, they don't rush you through to get you out. You can take the time to chat and enjoy your food (which, of course, if you take up their real estate for an 'extra' long time, you should increase your tip ....). So, it is a nice, relaxed delivery speed. If you need it faster, you would do well to tell the server you're in a hurry. 2.) I, very, very much, dislike the 'decor' on the inside. Similar to The Parish (Orange Grove and Oracle, NW corner) the management has fallen in love with black painted walls, black ceiling, and 'light' bulbs which put out almost enough light to see the person sitting across the table from you. I exaggerate -- slightly -- for emphasis. But, it may not have occured to the Management that when there is almost no interior illumination, and you have these big 'picture' windows from which a great bit of light streams in, it makes it very hard, for some of us, anyway, to see because of the glare from the outside -- it's like driving with all the cars on the other side of the road having their "brights" on. Your eyes have adjusted to near total darkness, and then you are blinded by a bright light. I like Charred Pie. But, I don't like the milieu.
