Paradise Valley location that has everything from pizza and pastas to salads and appetizers. Great desserts, too and they are famous for their pizza cookie!!! Friendly staff!! They even have a dedicated to-go area for takeout. Great place to grab a takeout or dessert or eat in and share a pizza and glass of wine.

We got to sit outside on the porch. The host was super kind and had us pick out table as there were may to pick from. Our server, Peter, was professional, friendly, and made us feel like he cared to give great service. He was wonderful! Thank you Peter! Came in for an appetizer and pazookie!

As someone that lived in Arizona for several years, I love Oregano's! It is my absolute favorite chain and the only thing I talked about consistently after moving to the east coast. When I finally had a trip planned back to Arizona after 4 years away, this was number one on my bucket list and I had the whole menu picked out in my head months in advanced. Unfortunately my high expectations were not fully met. My friends and I (a party of 5) got to the restaurant around 7:30pm on a weeknight and had to wait a few minutes for them to seat us. It was not busy at the restaurant, but this was fine. Once we sat down though, we felt ignored by the server. She took our drink order, brought the non alcoholic ones out, and then disappeared for a while. We had to flag down another server to put in our food order. Oregano's is famous for their pan pizza and I was excited to order it. Well turns out...they were out for the night. I was then going to pivot to my second favorite dish - zany ziti in a bread bowl. They had the zany ziti dish but they no longer put it in a bread bowl. It was disappointing but I then decided to try something new - their thin crust pizza. The server taking our order explained that ownership changed hands about 2 years ago so there was some overhaul on the dishes. I also noticed this when we ordered our appetizer, the guaca-tony. It used to be Italian guacamole served on top of pizza crust chips in the shape of a pizza. Instead, the pizza crust was pre-cut up when served to us. Despite all the little food hurdles, everything tasted excellent. If you're able to get the pan pizza, do it! However, the thin crust pizza isn't bad. The guaca-tony still was tasty in the new format. We ended the meal with a pizza cookie for dessert. My favorite thing is getting two different cookie flavors. This location had plenty of parking! Oregano's is super casual so I recommend it for anyone looking for some good Italian food. They sometimes have specials going on for a date night, so get on their email list too.

Pizza Cookie, Chocolate Chip
Laura M.

Oreganos is always good! No matter what location, they are always consistent. The menu is huge so there is something for everyone. The ambiance is great. It's causal, family friendly, with lots of 1950's memorabilia and Sinatra playing in the background. I love all their clever t-shirt slogans. We always get the Oreganos Favorite Salad with the roasted red peppers, kalamata olives, and sun dried tomatoes. It comes with a honey vinaigrette dressing that's light and fresh. I love they serve the salad with chilled salad bowls. Our go-to pizza is the Bistro Classic. We get the 18 inch on purpose so we have left overs because it's just so good! It's a white pizza with a garlic sauce, topped with thinly sliced tomato, red onion, basil, and Italian cheeses. It's perfection! We can never leave without getting a Pizzookie! Oreganos is home of the original Pizza Cookie! Cookie dough, slightly baked with vanilla bean ice cream! My kids like the chocolate chip, but you can also get white chocolate macadamia nut, peanut butter, or do a half and half combination. Their motto is...the key to happiness is friends, good food, and music! Pretty sure they nail this every time!

I had lunch today at Oregano's and it was wonderful. The outstanding part of Oregano's is the service and the people who provide it. From hostess to waiter to bartender, all the employees display an attitude of welcoming and caring. They were so friendly and concerned about customers getting what they wanted; you rarely see that demonstrated by every employee. I think it starts with the manager who was everywhere all the time checking on customers. The ambiance is great because they play old music, Sinatra and others of that era that I cannot now recall but it makes you feel good to be there. The rest of the ambiance is fine but I found myself loving the music. The food was good. I had the Oregano's salad and I enjoyed it but suggest less dressing. I think most people would feel really welcome here and glad they had selected this restaurant. Highly recommended.

My husband & I went in yesterday for dinner. Marissa was absolutely AMAZING!! From the service to our meals everything was GREAT! It felt like a family owned restaurant because everyone was helping everyone. We will definitely be back.

I wanted to have a like review, but the bar counter was dirty. That's not so bad, but the bartender served me a drink without cleaning the bar and then cleaned up the space next to me. I ended up leaving for a new place without eating. There are so many choices in this area to eat that service like this is a no go.

Six Pack Shrimp
Brianna O.

Super friendly staff! We ordered the six pack shrimp as a starter, the meatballs for my toddler and a pizza for us (forgot to take a photo). My son loved the meatballs. The shrimp might have been undercooked a tad, guess I'll find out soon, but wasn't sure. I ate it anyway. Outside was a light pink but the inside was a little glassy and opaque looking. I could tell a shrimp had been cut into, which makes me think the chef checked. The bread was delicious as it soaked up the oil and seasonings. I forgot the name of the pizza we ordered but it had sausage, and a thinner meat on it. Im more of a Napoli/ Neapolitan type of pizza lover but liked the thin crust crunch this pizza had.

Ask the Community - Oregano's

Does anyone know if Oregano's sing for birthday celebrations?

We would love for you to celebrate birthdays with us, but unfortunately we do not sing table side. If you show your server your idea, we will treat you to a birthday cookie of your choice!

Is marinara vegetarian?

Yes. The recipe is posted and it is only vegetables, olive oil, and garlic. Just google Oregano’s marinara recipe to check it out.

I eat here on Thursday, July 13 and got food poisoning from the Caesar salad has anybody else had this happen?

We were greeted by the kindest gentleman at the door, who helped us to our seats and made us feel welcome right away. Then we met Lisa--a Jersey girl with Arizona in her heart! What a sweetheart. We laughed so much with her, and she made us feel like we'd known her for years. Honestly, we couldn't have imagined a better evening with her looking after us. Ask for her section if you go, and don't be shy about asking her for recommendations! The food was fresh and so delicious, and the portions were big! We shared the calamari, a side salad and lasagna, then finished with Italian cookies, tiramisu and a latte. Definitely consider sharing, and save room for dessert! We loved the food, the atmosphere and how welcome everyone made us feel. We've already been telling people to visit and ask for Lisa! Lisa, thank you for all the laughs and for making our night so special. The Sicilian Butcher is lucky to have you. We've fallen in love with Arizona, and this evening was one of the reasons why. Until we meet again!

The service was good, however, I ordered the Ceasar Salad and Margherita Pizza for lunch. The lettuce in the salad was bitter and on the verge of turning yellow, the pizza was good, presentation could be better. The staff was courteous to oblige and correct the issue. Bakery side is lovely, Cannoli's are my favorite and they were scrumptious. Overall, it is a beautiful atmosphere, service was good, food could better for the price. I do plan on returning to the restaurant and bakery to try other menu items.

We enjoyed the $7 wine, the $5 tortellini, and the rigatoni with salmon. We also ordered the Italian chopped salad to go, and it was absolutely the best Italian chopped salad we have ever had! We loved everything so much that we knew we had to come back. Today we returned, and once again, everything was outstanding. We had the branzino special, the Involtini of Eggplant for an appetizer, and the lasagna. The lasagna was actually something we had to try because we kept hearing how the regular patrons always order it. After our first visit, we knew we had to see what all the talk was about -- and even though we were getting it to go, we had to order it! I'm honestly not even a fan of lasagna, but now I can completely understand why everyone loves it. This will be the only place I order lasagna from now on! And the bread with the pesto butter... it gets us every time! So delicious! And of course, Sal deserves another mention. Sitting at the bar with him on our first visit was such a fun experience, and he was a big reason we wanted to come back. He made us feel so welcome and made our first visit memorable. The food, the specials, the atmosphere, and the people are all fantastic. We've already been back twice, and I have a feeling The Italian Daughter is quickly becoming one of our regular spots. Everything has been outstanding, and we can't wait to come back again!

After looking over the menu, we started off with Francesco's frittura to share. This dish tasted fine, nothing outstanding. For our main entrees we ordered the brown butter seared scallops with sweet corn risotto and the shrimp fradiavolo. Both of these entrees were outstanding in their own respect. The risotto was subtly sweet and not heavy or rich. Additionally, the scallops were nicely seasoned and not overcooked. The shrimp fradiavolo was mildly spicy and the spaghetti was perfectly al dente. Since we always have room for dessert, we ordered the tiramisu to share. It was nice and fluffy, and not too sweet, which we prefer. Overall, service was friendly, patient, and attentive. The ambiance was comfortable and intimate with lots of indoor seating and some outdoor patio seating. I highly recommend making reservations in advance if you plan on coming here. After our great experience, we will definitely be back to try out some of their other dishes!

I don't know why the other locations don't offer this as an option. Im not sure when they changed their Italian Farm salad to the Italian Cobb Salad but its very similar and still delicious and refreshing. This has some zucchini, green olives, sun dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, salami of a couple sorts, different cheeses, pistachio mortadella, mixed greens and oregano vinaigrette. I always go for the Roasted Salmon as it's a perfect balance of colors and taste. There were mixed in cauliflower and a bit of broccolini. I would definitely love to have more broccolini though. I ordered this as part of the summer menu which it comes with a choice of their daily soup (which was a creamy chicken soup on a Saturday), Sicilian meatballs, Cacio e Pepe, Simple Salad or Charcuterie plate. I went with the charcuterie plate which had a array of foccicia bread, pitted green olives in an olive mix of rosemary or thyme theme taste, sweetened figs over a soft cheese spread, pecorino cheese I think, candied nuts, a jalapeño forward pickled veggies such as carrots, cauliflower, prosciutto, speck (another type of prosciutto). Other dishes were kids Alfredo pasta, Margherita pizza and the ricotta cavatelli which has lump crab meat and shrimp, mint and lemon olive. Our server was absolutely 100 percent as well as the rest of the staff. This place used to do valet but when we came for lunch there was no valet which I appreciated as the lot is just a regular private parking. This still has the same set up as it was 10 years ago or so with the barnyard type of structure and an open kitchen. Oh how I missed coming to this specific location. I'm ready to eat here again!

The calamari was for sure very different, and honestly it really wasn't that great. I get that they're trying to be different, but I like the calamari originally how it's made, which they made it with a different batter. I will say that the garlic bread was really good and honestly was the only thing I found really good. For my entrée, I ordered the lasagna. It should've been called the soup lasagna. It was so watery!!! And my father ordered the Bolognese. which needed way more time to cook. The noodles were hard! The entrées we're pretty bad, We didn't even take the leftovers home.

First off, this place is in a beautiful area. I was with 2 of my buddies but this place was the percect date night vibe. The scenary was very soft and "southern". It had that "aesthetic" vibe, great for pictures etc. The restaurant is one of a kind and beautiful inside. The booths are very comfortable. My server was extremely polite and attentive, along with knowledgeable. She didn't have the answer to one question I had, so like any good server, she found out immediately. The bus boy/ runner was also extremely attentive. Actively clearing plates and assisting my friends and I. I started off with the ceaser, which was delicious. We shared the meatballs, amazing. Along with the calamari and grilled octopus. Everything was fresh and was served to us quickly. We ordered a pizza to split, the margarita to be exact, and let me tell you it was life changing especially when you are a little buzzed. That may have enhanced my experience a little more. For my entree I chose the vodka pasta, it was one of the best meals I've had in my entire life. The only downside to this place is how pricy it can be, but like all nice places you have to be prepared to spend a lot. Despite that, I recommend this place to everyone. Come in a group if you can, its a fun time. Miss this place and love it!
