A Series 12 license allows the holder of a restaurant license to sell and serve spirituous liquor solely for consumption on the premises of an establishment which derives at least forty percent (40%) of its gross revenue from the sale of food. Oregano's Pizza Bistro is an existing business in Flagstaff. If approved, it will be one of the 88th series 12 license in Flagstaff. Series 12 licenses are non-quota licenses.
