Hot Daisy’s popular pizzas include pepperoni, the Italian Stallion with several types of meat and red onion, and the Elote pizza with roasted corn, cotija cheese and chipotle oil. Customers can also build their own pizza with a variety of toppings, including spicy giardiniera, artichoke and egg. Coe likes to get creative with daily specials. A native of Virginia, Coe has lived and worked in the Roosevelt Row neighborhood for many years. She is thrilled to see the Arizona culinary community’s growth and the explosive increase in new businesses and restaurants in her area.
