There were a ton of garlic chunks but surprisingly it wasn't too garlicky. The cheese garlic bread my friend ordered was so good it was the reason I came back with the wife. Today I tried their lasagna, it had a great flavor. The meat sauce was a touch sweet for me but I still rate it highly. The eggplant parmigiana was also delicious. The restaurant is nice and pleasing, the restrooms were classy and clean, and the outside looked very welcoming, perfect for cooler days. With great food, huge servings, and kind staff to match, this will be a regular spot for me 4.5-5 stars.

The drinks are limited if you don't like sweet drinks so I paid full price for a cocktail off the list.

The waitress did change it but a customer shouldn't have to tell you the price is incorrect. The service was good. She checked on us frequently.

It wasn't fresh baked like most Italian restaurants, it was a a couple slices from out of a bag. Our entrees, spaghetti with meatballs and the baked lasagne were very good as was the salad-all very fresh. Our service was ok, but our waitress couldn't get the bartender to make our drinks. We had to ask for them 3 times and the bartender was either not even behind the bar or was just chatting with people sitting at the bar...in other words, the bartender just wasn't working. When we did get them, my husband's drink was terrible. He ordered a dirty gin martini and it looked like the bartender had poured a half a jar of olive juice in his glass. And these were not cheap cocktails. $15 for a martini and $12 for my tall Tito's with club soda...they charged me an extra $1 for my tall glass. We didn't try the pizzas but they looked good coming out of the kitchen. We will go back to try them at some point, but we won't order any of their overpriced cocktails next time.

The $25 trio appetizer was ridiculous with cold fries in a huge pizza box. The side salad with our pasta was $7.50. It's just lettuce and it was tiny. We asked for extra dressing in the side with extra croutons. There were 5 croutons. If they would have left the dressing out of the container they could have given more lettuce, and no extra dressing provided. But the ceasar dressing was so acidic, we couldn't eat. We asked for extra 2 breads as we purchased 4 meals and spent over $100 and were given only 1. Definitely not worth the price and the quality was just okay. Many other choices for Italian, so disappointing!

A Hidden Gem You NEED to Try - Don't Let This Place Stay a Secret!…read moreI've been to Sage & Barrel Craft Eatery a few times now, and every visit leaves me wondering why this place isn't packed every single night. We stopped in on a Monday evening and had the whole vibe almost to ourselves--such a shame because this spot is seriously awesome and deserves a full house! The atmosphere is so vibey--warm, inviting, perfectly lit with that perfect mix of casual and upscale that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. It feels special without being stuffy, great for date nights, family dinners, or just unwinding with friends over craft beers (their selection is impressive--40+ local options with plenty on tap). But the real star? The food. Everything is scratch-made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the care in every bite. Deeply flavorful, innovative twists on classics, generous portions, and consistently excellent. Whether you go for the Nashville hot chicken and waffles, fish & chips, burgers, or whatever catches your eye, it's all done right. No frozen junk here--just real, delicious food that keeps you coming back. Queen Creek (and the East Valley) needs more places like this. Support local, support quality, and help keep this gem thriving so it doesn't disappear. We'll definitely be back--next time on a busier night so more people can discover it! If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and go. Tell your friends. Mondays (and every night) deserve Sage & Barrel. You won't regret it.

There was no smile, greeting, or sense that we were happy to be there. Our server was very nice personally, but the service was incredibly disorganized. What made it even more frustrating was that she only had two tables, and the restaurant was not busy. My husband's meal never came out, and she did not even notice that he was still waiting for it. While we were waiting for his food, she brought us a drink we had never ordered. She also filled my kids' lemonades with water. The food was just as disappointing. The salmon was extremely dry and hard, and the pasta noodles my kids ordered were hard as well. After waiting and realizing my husband's meal was never coming, we asked for the bill. At that point, our server actually asked if my husband was ready to order... even though he had already ordered and had been waiting for his meal the entire time. Our bill ended up being high, which made the experience even more frustrating because we spent that much money and left feeling like we received essentially nothing worth coming back for. We all left hungry. Mistakes happen, but this was not one small mistake. It was a series of issues with the service, drinks, food, and basic attentiveness, especially considering the restaurant was not busy. For the amount we paid, we expected a completely different experience. Unfortunately, we will not be back.

I ordered my usual Italian sandwich, and it was sooo delicious! The olives that came with the meal were also very good but beware they do have pits in them so don't choke on a pit like I did! One of my favorite touches was the complimentary balsamic vinegars and olive oils you can add to your food, they're located near the bar area in the indoor dining room, it was great to be able to try different flavors and customize your foods flavor profile! The service is counter style ordering, which worked fine for us, and we really enjoyed eating outside alongside the beautiful olive groves; Even though it was really hot, they had a massive swamp cooler and misters set up outside that made the heat much more manageable and allowed us to enjoy the scenery. Whenever I run out of olive oil I look forward to coming back to have another round of the soft bread and tasty sandwiches

Queen Creek Olive Mill is such a delightful place to spend some time. Of course, seeing the olives are fantastic, but their infused olive oils and the dishes they create with them are equally worth enjoying. There's something so relaxing about sitting outside in the shaded portion of the property, looking out over the grounds, and even taking a little stroll among the numerous olive trees. I ended up ordering the ricotta eggs on focaccia, and gosh darn, they were DELICIOUS. The white truffle-infused olive oil was absolutely the star of the dish. It added just the right amount of rich, savory truffle flavor without overpowering the creamy eggs. The focaccia was flavorful, perfectly suited for soaking up all those delicious flavors, and made the whole dish feel extra indulgent. My partner went with the bacon, potato, and ricotta breakfast sandwich, which he really enjoyed as well. It was hearty, flavorful, and a great choice for breakfast. Even though we originally came for Garlic Fest, we ended up having such a lovely and relaxing morning just enjoying the property and the food.

The manager was also amazing they took great care of us. I 100% recommend North Italia in Gilbert. The ambience was great as well, everything is very clean and welcoming!

It was NOT what I was expecting... in the absolute best way!!!…read more We went to North Italia to celebrate two birthdays, and what I thought was going to be just another Italian restaurant turned out to be so much more. The ambiance, the service, the wait time, the food -- everything was a 10/10! Would I recommend this spot? ABSOLUTELY. We will definitely be back! I ordered a pasta dish that our server told me was amazing. I've heard that at other restaurants before, only for the dish to arrive and be just... alright. But this one was everything she said it would be AND MORE! You could actually taste every individual flavor. It wasn't one big mashup where everything tasted the same -- each flavor made its own appearance and complemented the others perfectly. Easily one of those dishes you're still thinking about after you leave! The rest of our table ordered a little bit of everything, from pizza and chicken to seafood, and not a single dish disappointed. When they say FRESH! They mean it! They fresh drinks are amazing as well. They were also incredibly accommodating to the children in our group. They provided drawing tablets for the little ones, which was such a thoughtful touch and definitely appreciated by the parents! They also took the time to recognize both birthdays, which made our celebration feel even more special. Between the atmosphere, the service, the attention to detail, and food that genuinely lived up to the hype, North Italia completely exceeded my expectations. 10/10 experience and absolutely somewhere I'd recommend -- whether you're celebrating something special or just looking for a really good meal. We'll definitely be returning! Glad that a random selection just became a staple restaurant.

When I saw the high ratings, I decided to give it a try. In my opinion, Vero has the best Chicago deep-dish pizza. My personal favorite pizza is the Sears Tower since it has a little bit of everything. The Sears Tower is basically their version of a supreme pizza. Not only do the toppings taste fresh, but the cheese and pizza sauce are also loaded with flavor. The servers there are friendly and helpful, and the first time I went, our server was very happy when I told them that Vero was not my favorite place for Chicago deep-dish pizza. They are also more than happy to offer suggestions for some of their most popular pizza selections if you are unsure which one to get. I also liked the atmosphere of the place, as it is nice and low-key, making it a great place to relax during their quieter hours. I highly recommend Vero to anyone who is looking for a great Chicago deep-dish pizza.

We added Caesar salads for a modest upcharge, which was well worth it. The carbonara was excellent--rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The portions were generous enough that we both ended up taking about half home for another meal. Our daughter had the Fig and Pig Pizza, topped with fig spread, mozzarella, goat cheese, caramelized onions, and prosciutto. The combination of sweet and savory flavors worked beautifully, and it was one of the highlights of the meal. To finish, we ordered the chocolate cake, and it definitely did not disappoint. A perfect ending to a great dinner. Great food, generous portions, friendly service, and a warm neighborhood vibe. We'll definitely be back!

We were never checked on to see how our food was, we had to call her over for more water, and had to ask her to remove our plates after 30 mins of them sitting there after we had obviously finished. Unfortunately, we will never go back. Such a disappointing and not cheap dinner. Ambiance was comfortable enough.
