Mamma Toledo’s The Pie Hole - Phoenix

I have purchased five pies from here over the past nine months for various occasions, and each one has been exceptional. While the price might seem a bit steep, the use of high-quality ingredients and generous portion sizes justifies it. These pies are definitely superior to generic store-bought options. My favorite is the banana cream!

We decided to order one of each quiche to take home, which was a huge letdown. The quiche was dry, lacking flavor, and had an excessive amount of crust for a quiche. The dessert pies on the menu sounded appealing, but overall, this is not a place I would recommend for breakfast! P.S. To Mamma: You weren’t there, so please note that we were NOT offered fresh quiche as an option. We had assumed we were getting it fresh.

My husband, who loves key lime, finished that pie completely, and I must admit it had a good flavor, even though I'm not personally a fan of key lime. My niece tried the mixed berry pie, and it was decent—not overly sweet and definitely better than the PB chocolate. Would we return? Honestly, probably not. I'd be more inclined to drive the 45 minutes to Rock Springs Pies instead, but this place isn’t terrible, so you might want to try it yourself. Overall, it was just okay. On top of that, the girl who checked us out wasn't friendly at all—no greeting or acknowledgment whatsoever. And to make matters worse, a guy came in a few minutes after us with two dogs. In a bakery, really?! It was off-putting, and she didn’t even ask him to leave them outside. If I hadn’t already paid, I probably would have walked out. While I understand it’s not the owner’s fault, and I saw the sign prohibiting pets, it’s still surprising. I have pets myself, but I would never bring them into a restaurant or bakery! Who wants to deal with dog hair in their pies, unless it's from their own animals? Restaurants and bakeries should definitely not allow pets, especially considering the potential for allergies or simply the risk of animal hair in food. Anyone with pets knows they shed the moment after you clean, so having animals in a bakery is just plain unappetizing!

My husband is a stickler with his lemon meringue pie. He is only a fan of his moms lemon meringue pie recipe so when I went to mama Toledo and saw all the great reviews I knew it would be great! I got a few of the mini pies to include the lemon meringue pie and my husband said it was amazing and tasted exactly like his mom made! Thank you for making his Father’s Day one to remember! We will definitely be back!

I walked in as a first time customer and explained that to them. They asked a few questions and then made a recommendation on a pie they thought I would like. I tried the raspberry cream pie. Oh my goodness it was so delicious. I can not wait to go back and try more flavors.
