Probably one of the best Italian restaurants you can go to in Arizona always delicious with a great selection, fantastic staff, and overall phenomenal service, the restaurant itself is nice with a great vibe, so it's perfect for date nights, you honestly cannot go wrong with any of their pastas! Especially with their house red/marinara sauce, if you have not been to Tagliani yet and you love Italian food then you have to make this your next stop! read more

Cucina Tagliani is officially becoming one of our favorite spots! From the moment you walk in, the place is absolutely beautiful it truly feels like you've stepped into another place. The atmosphere alone makes the experience feel special! The service was great, and the appetizers were really good! Unfortunately, the main dish we ordered wasn't our favorite. We got the Pasta Tagliani, I believe the Alfredo with broccoli, prosciutto, and bacon and honestly we messed up with that choice because it just wasn't for us But hey, you can't win them all That definitely won't stop us from coming back, though! My husband had actually been here before and ordered the meatball sandwich, and he said it was SO good that we had to come back together and sit down for the full experience. And aside from our pasta choice, the experience definitely didn't disappoint! This beautiful restaurant is now one of our favorites, and we can't wait to come back and try something else on the menu. read more

We went in for appetizers and a Cesar Salad. We went into the bar. The bartender was amazing! Extremely attentive and fast! Both qualities I love in a bartender! If you've never been here, the bread they serve is the perfect match of butter and garlic on focaccia! We each had a glass of wine kicking off the bottle evening nicely! The Caesar with chicken matched nicely with the focaccia and wine. If you'd like a similar experience, eat in the bar and ask for Kathleen! You can thank me later! read more

Well, how do I begin to write this review? Our server was Tracy, she is amazing and very welcoming. Because of her i had the best birthday dinner. She helped guide us through the menu, recommendations, and overall very friendly/ helpful. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Very flavorful, you can definitely tell it was fresh. Reccomend the lobster dip! The prices of the menu are reasonable and will come again. The atmosphere was so peaceful beautiful. I loved the decor and how well they represented italy. The lighting was low and perfect. Very intimate. The music was enjoyable at a pleasant lvl and not noisy. We left very satisfied! Thank you Tracy and everyone else for making this wonderful. read more

Definitely would love to be able to eat at this place alot more if it was closer! The portions are enough to share ohhh the garlic bread is so yummy. And everything my family and I ordered we loved! Service was nice and friendly and the restaurant has a nice relaxing feel like a little walk through Italy I have never been but it kind of feels like it. It is a bit privacy but Italian food is always a bit pricey but it is good and the flavors leave a taste you want to go back. read more

Always have a great time here.. Greeted when coming in the door. Sat in the bar today to watch the football game. Decide to get the soup and salad today. The salad was nice and crispy on a cold plate. And I always ask for their balsamic dressing. I also had their minestrone soup and bread. So delicious exceptionally on a cold day. The bar area has plenty of seating but all tall table and chairs. Always clean and fresh. The service, food, and cold beer was fantastic. read more

I guess three is the charm. After two bad experiences, gave this place another try. Sat in the bar and there were six other people but it took 20 minutes to get a drink and another 30 minutes to get bread that we were told was in the oven when we were seated A total of 50 minutes before our meal arrived. A Caesar salad was flavorless, the bread that took forever was raw and soggy, a lobster tail that was supposed to be grilled was boiled, rubbery and flavorless, fettuccine was hard and tough, and the service was horrible. Most of the time we could clearly see our server standing in the next room talking with another server. A couple of regulars were even complaining about the service. I would have given zero stars but we did receive one good entree. We won't be returning. read more

Got cut off!! My wife, myself and a friend of ours were there for a few hours. Our server Bea was so gracious and welcoming and never left the table without a smile or a laugh! I got cut off after 4 or 5 drinks and I will say that I was mad. But, understandably a business needs to maintain their insurance. Thank you Bea! You are the reason we will come back again and again. You were so gracious and welcoming we will come back to see you again soon! Have to love a good staff! We may not love the rules but my wife said, we love that girl read more

I want to start by saying the waitress was so friendly and absolutely lovely. She was attentive, and made the experience fun! When my boyfriend and I first walked in, an un-uniformed lady, without a name tag, or any sign of being an employee, sat alone on a bench in the empty waiting room and asked us if we were there to eat dinner. A bit confused, we said yes, and then she got up without a word, and walked away out of sight, and then another woman showed up and took us to our table. There's nothing inherently wrong or upsetting about the situation, it was just strange and a little confusing. The mozzarella fritta appetizer was delicious. The rest of the food was average but still enjoyable, It was just expensive for what it was. I would come again if it weren't for the price. (I will note that you do get salad and bread sticks with your meal though which is a nice touch) read more

Food 5/10 Service 0/10 Ambiance 0/10 Food is fair here unfortunately the service pretty horrible. I randomly came here on a Saturday around 2-3 pm sat alone and no where inside or outside the menu or anywhere did it say they don't accept tap only actually visible card and I use tap for everything. Anyways my bill was 50$ I only had 30$ cash and I was gonna use my tap but they only accept actual card so I left the pasta didn't even touch it gave the 30$ and left the manager was this white man he was absolute garbage acting like he was in a multi million dollar lawsuit had to make a decision of a lifetime like calm down sir. Anyways very bland food and bad service waitress absolutely hated her job I can't blame her though the vibes were so weird and creepy. read more

It's like being in Little Italy. This place is family owned & amazing. Every item is made the real Italian way, Kelly he is the owner & Tiny is the mgr. Arely & ,Riley are great servers. The garlic dressing is homemade,meatballs,the lobster Mac & cheese the best. The chicken Parmesan is real & not frozen, the ice cream is real vanilla. Every food item is amazing read more

I was surprised that we had a 20 minute wait on a Thursday evening but after dining here I realize why. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the parmesan crusted chicken with the squash noodles. My side chick had the baked squash with alfredo sauce. Both meals were very good! read more

Enjoyed great company but a mediocre meal. Servers were polite and attentive. Two of the 4 of you did not like our meals. Panini and salad enjoyed, although French fries were undercooked. The two of us who ate pasta. Both dishes the pasta was overcooked. One had spicy sausage rigatoni. The sauce had no kick and extremely greasy. The worst part of the evening was the filthy restrooms. Not just taking about paper towels and toilet paper on the floor. I'm talks "stuff" on the doors when you close them in the stalls. The smell, the overall neglect. When a bathroom is that dirty I'm concerned about the kitchen. Possibly unfairly, but that's where my mind went. This restaurant has gone downhill, in all honesty it has been 10 mos. Since our last visit. But I think this was our last time. read more

let me start by saying we have been a customer for over 30 years. my expectations were high after not going there over a year. I was a little concerned when the Mexican restaurant next door had on hour wait. But Tagliani's was 80% empty We ordered chicken parmigiana full portion for $26.99. the minestrone soup was great, the service was very good. The issue was Chicken parmigiana' the meat was between 1/8" to 1/4" inch thick with more breading than meat. when I brought to the waitresses attention she told me it's because they use chicken cutlet. in my opinion they should advertise them as breaded chicken cutlet. Not parmigiana unfortunately we won't be back. read more

Came here for a wedding dinner. Was able to try many things. Everything was amazing. Service was fantastic for a large party. I don't think there was a thing that was order that was bad, everything tasted great. Ambiance is great as well. Wish we had a location in Northern California. But visiting family this will be a place we come back for. read more

We ordered to-go chicken parm dinners and the calamari appetizer, along with a couple items off the kids menu. All items were carefully packaged, even extra saran wrapped to be sure sauces didn't leak and were kept warm during transport! Speaking of sauces, theirs must be house-made, even their salad dressing was exceptional. To top it off, pick up time was spot on in 15 minutes. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

The food is fair at best had the eggplant parm tonight it was ok, nothing special. This place used to be great a few years ago. I'm not sure if they have different owners seems the quality has gone downhill and the prices are about $25 per meal. The service was good that's about the positive thing l can say. The restaurant needs a refresh for the ambience is tiresome. We sat in the back banquet area has a big hole in the ceiling tile and chairs look a little worn and need of some cleaning. Not sure if l will go back again sad to say. It was one of my favorite places, but not anymore. read more

We had Red as our server and she was absolutely wonderful (such a funny woman)! Made it an amazing first experience here, as she recommended the lasagna (delicious). We got that, spaghetti, and a slice of cheesecake. It was all very much worth the money. Seating and serving was fast and the place had beautiful decor. Such a nice vibe overall. 10/10 would recommend! read more

When you walk in your instantly welcomed with warmth, kindness and a bright smile the ambiance is like your in an Italian grandma's house. When we go to our table we we're welcomed with a smiling face our Waitress Arelie when we placed our order with the subtle hint of lovely Italian music in the background I got the fettuccine alfredo. It was exquisite with hints of butter. And the cheese ooo the cheese creamy buttery cheese. We really loved this place. Five stars will come back again thank you Arelie!! read more

Excellent service and food. We went on a Thursday evening with our vacation group and were very pleased. Everyone liked what they ordered: pastas, pizzas, salads. Everything was good and made to please. Extra large portions so we all had enough to take home for lunch the next day. Our waitress was very happy and kind and accommodating. We will come back if we are ever vacationing in the area again. read more

My husband and I dined here once and had good sausage lasagna. We ordered a side dish of meatballs and they were good. We ordered an additional side, sausage links, but neither of us liked them. I liked my side house salad and my husband liked his minestrone soup. I liked my Aperol spritz. The white bread was very good: hard crust with soft inside. I liked my Aperol spritz drink. There is spacious indoor seating. The outdoor seating is pleasantly shaded by a patio roof. The service is good. We will return. read more

So my wife, daughter and I were at a phone store WAY longer than we anticipated and were starving. The first place we went to (in the same plaza) had an 30-45 minute wait, so we walked to this place. Service was good, the Drinks were good, but the Pizza was just OK, not bad, not great. Small goat cheese salad we split was actually better than expected, but we were a bit disappointed on the Pizza. I would try a meal instead of Pizza if we have occasion to be back. Hand stretched dough, round, as you had to pick type of base and shape! read more

Delicious food excellent service. Love the atmosphere. We were a party of 6 on our way to a concert at Music Instrument Museum on March 14th. It was between 4 and 4:30 and we were running little late. We explained this to our waitress and she was great.

Third time was not a charm. It was a nightmare. We had been boasting to our friends how great the food and service was. Was, being the key word. We had Gerdy and Parker as servers our first 2 times. This visit was a table of 6, 4 adults and 2 kids. We ordered the large appetizer sampler for the table to start. It was ok, nothing spectacular. The lobster Mac & cheese was amazing our first trip so I ordered the lobster m&c, hubby ordered the ribs with lobster M&C, our friends ordered salmon and baked ziti. I don't know what happened but the M & C was so dry, I took one bite and was done with it. It was only lukewarm warm at best. Hubby's ribs were smothered in bbq sauce then charred so much they were black and burnt. Our friend's salmon and baked ziti were also lukewarm warm. Upon raising our complaints to the manager, we were met with resistance and she was only willing to make us another meal. I'm sorry, I don't want you to remake dry Mac and cheese by warming it up with milk. At this point the only person satisfied with their meal was the 7 year old child that had pizza. This manager was very combative and she was only willing remove the adult meals. Our bill was still $70 and none of us will be back. One of the meals included a drink so we were only compensated for the meal and not the drink. A $4 iced tea was charged. Another complaint came from the men in our party. The bathroom was disgustingly filthy. There was very few towels and little soap in the dispenser. My final complaint is them allowing dogs posing as a service dog. Prior to leaving and after our $150 check, my 7 year old granddaughter was running to the restroom. In order to access the restrooms you have to go through the bar. A couple with their pet were sitting in the bar. As she ran past the dog, it became aggressive and launched at her. This was clearly not an ADA service animal and should not have been in the restaurant. Especially since it was not trained appropriately. After my third visit it would be a hard pass for me to return. This just shows me that it's all about treating the customer respectfully and having good servers and managers. This night was not a representative of such. read more

We came to Tagliani's because the food tastes Wonderful and the serving is plenty. Myra was an Excellent Server, brought our drinks, salads and main courses out quick and the food was hot. Our water was never empty. Nice size sitting area and it reminds us of the Italy we visited years ago. Nice and Cozy! We love this place and will keep coming back. read more

A decades-old and well-established Italian gem with good food and superb service, and an old-world ambiance that makes for a memorable dining experience. Their unique offerings, such as spareribs over baked ziti, mixed with standard Italian dishes, offer variety for any tired palate. While I admit to having better marinara sauce elsewhere, it still stands out as exceptional, and the meat sauce is exactly that-meaty. Regarding the prices of their meals, please note that any items beyond the basic entrée are considered add-ons, but the meal portions are sizable. I will be dining here again, not just to enjoy the restaurant's indoor charm, but also to savor the food in the presence of good company. read more

Located in Glendale in a shopping center is this cute Italian spot. Parking is ample and they offer indoor as well as covered patio seating. Customer service was amazing! Food was pretty good except for their Lobster roll hoagie! The picture they advertise compared to what you actually get is night and day and Very Disappointing! They advertise a Lobster roll overflowing with lobster meat busting out of the hoagie roll! What you actually get is A HUGE hoagie roll with a lot of dressing, lettuce & tomato, with BARELY ANY lobster meat to be found for $25.99!! It was maybe a 4oz tail worth of lobster meat spread thin across a hoagie roll about 9" long! I wanted to have it returned to the kitchen but my mom whom ordered it just decided to settle with what was served. NOTE: DO NOT ORDER THE LOBSTER ROLL! NEVER SETTLE for FALSE REPRESENTATION OF FOOD! Other than the major disappointment of the Lobster roll which lacked lobster meat...everything else was pretty decent in flavor and true to its advertisement. We ordered: Lobster Mac & cheese - good Chicken piccata - good Caesar salad - ok Calzone - delish Pepperoni garlic bread - Must order (a meal in itself) Calamari fritti - delish Zucchini fritti - delish Pasta tagliani - good read more

The place is nice. Our server was great. Polite and helpful. The food looked better on pictures. Although the clam chowder was good. The other things were mediocre, that I would've rather go to Olive Garden. But we wanted try some place new. I got the clam chowder and the Shrimp scampi. They definitely weren't chinchy on the shrimps. All sorts of sizes. I am not sure what all was in it but something didn't taste right with the sauce. My son got the kids pizza. Great in size and he liked it a lot. My husband got the lobster hoagie. For someone who likes seafood. Couldn't eat any of it. It's cold. And he wasn't expecting that. But he felt bad to say anything. The manager did come by but still didn't give us any discount lol. But he did say it wasn't their fault, it just wasn't good. read more

Service great Food not so great We have been going to Tagliani for a few years now and tonight was not up to par. Appetizer not good, scallops added to our meal for $10 up charge were bay scallops, not good. Very disappointing and embarrassing because we brought our San Fran, CA family here and and we highly recommended. Thanks a lot, bring back your previous chef, please or next time we can do what you did at home. read more
