Our first time here, and we were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant doesn't look like much from…read morethe outside, but as they say looks can be deceiving. The interior spoke of old world dining. A quaint and charming decor that told a story of old Italy. The service was quick and friendly. Our waitress was efficient and personable. You could tell she enjoyed her job. We indulged in a house Merlot that had a fantastic flavor. We tried the appetizer sampler platter that was just the right size for the two of us. Our entree's were prepared with great care and tasted of wonderfully fresh ingredients. The portion size was just right for us. We did not partake in any desserts, but the list looked just yummy. Just a great location in Old Town Avondale. We are looking forward to our return to try something new.

My daughter & son-in-law & grandchildren were down for soccor games last weekend, as they often are. I ordered the Family Love (4 individual meals @ $10 + $4-$6 if you want a protein plus it came with a family-size salad & garlic bread. I ordered extra pasta & protein for my son-in-law, but it wasn't needed. It was very much enjoyed later! We were all blown away with the delicious, homemade taste, the portions & how fast they were ready. Pasta Love was easy to find, very clean & the owners were friendly & very accomodating. I'm going back this week just for myself because I can't wait to try one of their traditional menu items.

This was one of those amazing spots we just kind of stumbled into, and it ended up being a…read morehighlight of the trip. The first thing that stands out is the massive, beautifully maintained outdoor seating area. It's covered, pet-friendly, and thoughtfully designed with fireplaces and privacy walls that give each table a more intimate feel. There's even an outdoor bar where you can grab a drink while you wait or just enjoy the atmosphere. Inside, the décor is incredibly creative. Butcher knives and custom cutting boards line the walls, and the open kitchen showcases hanging meats so you can see everything in action. The bakery area adds another layer of charm, with rolling pins and whisks hanging from the ceiling, it all feels intentional and immersive without being over the top. The menu is just as fun and different as the space itself. I started with the Sicilian wedge and then had to go for what they're known for, the handcrafted meatballs. You can mix and match meatballs with different pastas, but the real showstopper is the "meatball carousel." It lets you sample multiple meatballs with their recommended sauces, all presented on an elaborate Ferris wheel-style display that turns heads across the restaurant. It's a full experience, not just a meal. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. What truly made the night, though, was our server, Mia. She struck that perfect balance of fun and professional, engaging, attentive, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with. She guided us through the menu, made great recommendations, and brought a level of energy that elevated the entire experience. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it shows. For dessert, we went with the traditional Sicilian cannoli stuffed with Nutella and a lemon tart that was so good I'd honestly consider flying back just to have it again. This place delivers on every level, atmosphere, creativity, food, and service. I'll absolutely be making this a regular stop anytime I'm in Phoenix.

We enjoyed our full experience. Easily made reservations via Open Table (a must with a two month old baby!). We ordered the meatball Ferris wheel as an appetizer. It was so unique and fun! Although the classic meatball ended up being my favorite. I got the chicken parm and it was delicious. I love their red sauce! The only thing I was bummed about is that I love their marinara so much that I wanted to get the rigatoni with marinara as my side. However, they don't allow you to sub the sauce. It came with vodka sauce and I'm not a fan of that, so I opted for the side salad. Wish they'd allow you to sub the sauce. After dinner, we went next door to the Sicilian Baker and ordered an array of treats. Their tiramisu is a must! I've had it twice now and it's some of the best tiramisu I've had (topping even slices I've had in Rome!). The girls helping us were Riley and Tatum and they were very helpful. Even gave us some free mini cannolis. Yum!

Reservation was honored promptly Started with the Butternut Squash Soup- OMG! The boss had the Caesar salad (yes you can get a half). Fresh, light and crispy. Choice 1. Sunday night lasagna. Meaty, flavorful with the braised short rib. Hard to describe, but didn't feel "heavy". Choice 2. Vodka Rigatoni. A little spice and heat. Chunks of sausage. Rich sauce, and a slow, mild after-burn. Both 5 star. The trouble started with the dessert menu - how do you choose? We landed on the Brookie Sundae. The food, and ambiance is well worth the trip.

The choices where pizza hut, olive garden and here. this place had 4.4 stars so I said lets give it a try. walking in i was a bit concerned because no one was doing anything but you cant judge a book by its cover. we grabbed a menu, sat anywhere. we choose to sit near the tv where my boyfriends favorite program was on. there was sound on the tv so he was happy about that. we walked to the front ordered and the staff was nice and attentive to help the young lady. as soon as we ordered they brought out two side salads and bread knots which where so soft and fresh. super unexpected. our food took no longer than 15 minutes for both. me and my boyfriend where super impressed by the quality of food they delivered. i enjoyed looking at all the poster on the walls and the decorations they had! If im ever back on this side of town I will be back ASAP. I may even drive this far as my new pasta spot! Boyfriend tapping in here. i took one bite of my meat lovers calzone and audibly said, "OMG WOW" after just a bite of cheese and bread. the food, service, and atmosphere was truely wonderful!

The pizza was absolutely delicious, and there's a reason this place has nearly a 5-star rating--they truly deserve it.

Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. If you haven't tried Argentos yet, I definitely recommend stopping by and giving them a try!

That's when we learned that they cook the chicken in the fryer (good to know) He took that off our bill. We shared the tiramisu for dessert which was also awesome. Overall a good experience and I will be going back again.

We were also so grateful that they were able to put certain items of the dish on the side depended upon our preferences. Unfortunately, there was a girl who walked by who was very sick and we had to endure the experience, but management asked if we wanted to be reseated which we appreciated. The food here is always so amazing especially if you're a gluten-free girl the gluten-free noodles pair very well with the pastas in my opinion. Lastly, right now they have a banana butter cake and that is probably the best thing on their dessert menu! So tasty, just the right amount of banana and crispy on the outside!

And if you don't know about their affiliation with the dog rescue Almost There, you should. From what I understand, Almost There came first and it sits behind the pizzeria across the parking lot. For our daughter's 16th birthday, we took her and ten friends to do puppy yoga. It was awesome and the girls had a great time. Plus the instructor Meg was super chill and the volunteers made sure the experience was enjoyable. Then we walked across the parking lot for an equally amazing lunch. Pizza to the Rescue isn't an ordinary pizza joint. Think elevated. The eclectic interior is hard to describe. It's got a mid-century modern vibe with a mix of boho and tiki lounge. Sitting at the bar, my wife and I took it all in, admiring the decor, sipping our adult beverages, and allowing the girls to celebrate behind us on the patio. The service was excellent. Our server, the bar tender, the busser, and others all worked together as a team. It was also a sight to see. Now the food was unexpectedly good. Seriously, our roasted artichoke heart appetizer belongs in a fine dining restaurant. And so does the pizza. The variety and creativity is impressive, and the pizzas were delicious! The best part of this is the fact that 25% of Pizza to the Rescue's proceeds go to Almost There. Do yourself a favor and go try the pizza. And maybe pick out a puppy to take home with your leftovers. This review was generated entirely by my brain and not AI.
