Very good salad and pizza! It was a little pricey but thats what you get with good food. The coconut water option was yummy too

For many years, I have lived near a Picazzo's Healthy Italian Kitchen location. I used to visit it quite often and for some reason, I stopped going until recently. I went recently and have been pleased by the food, the service, and the promotions. It still has the charm from way back when but feels like a bit of a new restaurant with new menu items and specials. During my early visits, I remember ordering pizza (often pepperoni) along with baked wings, where we could choose up to 2 flavors. I remembered Parmesan flavor though that is no longer one of the options. On recent visits, I have taken advantage of their great lunch menu which is served daily from 11 AM to 3 PM. You can order a la carte pizza slices or else combos including pizza, salad or soup, and a beverage or pasta, salad or soup, and a beverage. My favorite pasta is the chicken piccata, which is also on the lunch combo menu. I am looking forward to trying the Baked Brie and Hot Honey Fig & Salami Pizza on a future visit. If you go to the Picazzo's Healthy Italian Kitchen website (https://picazzos.com), you can find menus including the regular menu, the lunch menu, vegan menu, healthy menu, and drinks and desserts. You can also find nutrition information, specials, online ordering, gift cards, location information, information about the restaurant, and more. You can also join the loyalty program at https://picazzos.com/loyalty-program. You get $10 just for signing up, $10 for your birthday, $10 for every 175 points earned. This particular location has plenty of parking and is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 AM to 8 PM and Friday and Saturday from 11 AM to 9 PM. They also have a healthy hour instead of a happy hour which are weekdays from 2 PM to 5 PM. You can get $2, $3, or $4 off various drink options and $2, $3, or $4 off various food dish options. Definitely check it out if you haven't been there before! read more

First time at this Picazzo's location but the same great customer service and yummy food! This is the second time I've celebrated my birthday at Picazzo's. The food is consistently good and a gluten free girls dream! We started with the cheese bread, it was delicious. My friend and I both got the meaty meaty pizza (mine cauliflower and hers on regular crust) and wow it was delicious and we both had leftovers to take. We ended with the only gf tiramisu in AZ, the perfect way to end the meal. Our server was very attentive even while bartending a full restaurant. Whether you're gluten free, vegan, or just looking for a delicious meal.... Picazzo's is the way to go! *Happy hour goes until 6, I believe it's everyday. read more

Picazzos is an awesome healthy Italian place!! Sometimes Italian food has too much cheese and is too heavy, picazzos perfectly curated these same dishes to be healthier versions! Super solid little dinner meal and an amazing cobbler dessert!! Service was good, I came before closing time and sat at the bar. The ambiance is smaller low key vibe. read more

We got pizza while I was in town visiting friends. I'm not vegan but I was intrigued by the vegan mushroom Florentine pizza and had to try- it was amazing! The crust was fabulous and airy- Neapolitan style, I'd say. The toppings were so well done- the garlic cream sauce was amazing, with whole cloves of garlic in it. The roasted tomatoes added the perfect acidic touch. The vegan mozarella was difficult to identify as vegan, it was that good. So glad I chose this one! We also all shared a big Caesar salad, and the dressing really blew me away- so delicious and garlicky! My friend is gluten free and was thrilled that the croutons are gluten free. Would definitely order from again! read more

We have frequented this Picazzo's since moving to the neighborhood a year and a half ago for happy hour - was one of our favorites. Very disappointed the happy hour now ends at 5 so we can't come after work anymore. read more

Went here for a late lunch and had the best experience! Our server, I believe Carlisle, was awesome. He was so helpful and had great recommendations. Loved that they had such a variety of lunch combos and many veggie/vegan selections. Will definitely be back when I'm in town again. read more

I live in scottsdale and I rarely explore restaurants in the area this restaurant is located. My friend lives nearby, and yesterday she suggested we stop here. I was really surprised at all the options including vegan, but I liked that the items were organic. I tried the Cobb salad? (I think that's what it's called) and I loved that it had pistachio, corn and lots of items. The salad was delicious. I was eyeballing everyone else's dinner and the pizza looked fabulous.So I will have to return and especially with my kids because they are pizza fanatics. read more

We went on Saturday for a date night and it didn't disappoint! The whipped ricotta appetizer was amazing. My husband said it was in his top 5 appetizers he has ever had. Our dinner was lovely, the service was exceptional, and the drink menu was versatile. Their gluten free options were so flavorful and it was a great experience. read more

We had a great experience. Service was excellent. They have plenty of vegan and gluten free options if that is your thing. We sat outside and they did have heaters if you get cold. It was a great experience. I had the Thai chicken noodles which was excellent. Artichoke dip was very good. Definitely try it out. read more

First time coming to this location. Love coming here for HH, they have it daily from 3pm-6pm. My favorite thing to get is their GF cheese bread. It wasn't fluffy and moist like their other locations, was a little bummed about that. Almost tasted like it was over baked. I also LOVE their pizzas, I got their HH pizza with Portugese sausage. It was perfect from the ratio of the sauce to cheese, not to mention how great their crust was. My BF ordered their GF pasta, the spicy southwestern chipotle. I'm just not a fan of their GF pastas but my BF didn't mind it. read more

This is our first time at this location. We love Picazzo's! what made todays visit special was Rogelio & Bri. Rogelio greeted us outside and was very helpful before our server, Bri met us on the patio. They are a dream team and made our visit lovely. i would recommend Bri as a server and recommend showing favor to both of them as they truly deserve it. Thank you Bri & Rogelio!!! read more

Being of Italian heritage & 7@ years of age, needless to asay I have enjoyed pizza from all over the worls, particularly from NYC & Italy, but this afternoon we decided to dine at Picazzo's on Cactus near Tatum. For no reason we ordered the "Vortex" pizza! Oh my God, what was delivered was manna from Heaven!!! The crust was exquisite and the flavors of pepperoni, sausage, olives, carmelized onions & red peppers melted in your mouth. I HIGHLY recommend Picazzo's and enjoy a glass of Sangria with it! read more

Lunch specials are a good deal: slice of pizza, soup, beverage. Puttanesca pizza was superb! Great combo of ingredients including artichoke and olives, with flavors blending perfectly on a thin crust that did not make me miss gluten at all! The soups we had were Tomato Basil and Italian White Bean w/ Kale. Both tasted bright and fresh, but both were a little heavy on the tomato which overpowered the other ingredients and could have been a little less thick. My tea was too watery but my friend's was fine. The service was attentive and the server answered all our questions thoroughly. The restrooms were clean and the toilet seat had a handy handle the likes of which I've never seen before.This is a very handy location for attending events at Theater Artists Studio so I'll definitely return for the surprisingly delicious pizza! read more

Came in for happy hour. Was told it ends at 5 now. Maybe update your website. Won't be back.

What glutton free??? How is that possible. Hard to believe a whole menu of gluten-free items. I have hit paid dirt. The selection of vegan dishes and meat dishes was overwhelming. The vegan meatballs tomato pasta was fabulous. So rich and satisfying. Friendly staff, great food and reasonable prices. read more

I've lived in the area for nearly a decade and only recently started coming to Picazzo's! I always forget it's an option, but happy to be making it a regular now. Picazzo's offers modern-Italian fare with a few fusion options on their menu. Everything is exceptionally fresh and is able to cater to vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and allergy-friendly diets. They have an full plant-based vegan menu that nearly mirrors the regular menu. While their menu is vast, we have our favorites. My wife and I love to share the Mother Earth salad (the candied walnuts are SO good) and the Elote pizza on a GF crust. Their GF is crust is truly one of the best I've ever had! Their pastas, also all GF, are delicious. My favorite is the "meetball" marinara. Service is always friendly and attentive. Even when it is packed, we rarely have to wait very long to be seated. They do offer outdoor seating, and now that it's cooler, I am excited for that option. The spcae inside is a bit squishy at times, but the atmosphere is laid back and family friendly. I highly recommend Picazzo's if you want Italian, but you want to keep it on the healthier and lighter side! read more

Lunch special consisted of a half bowl Ceasars salad with no dressing. Terrible. Pasta was in a tiny, 5 inch diameter bowl! Terrible ripoff. This joke was $17. was so offended paid my bill and left everything on the bar. Worst food value in years. Picazzos is cheating the customer. read more

Highly recommend this place! Their servers are on top of it, they are attentive and friendly. They always ask if there is any food allergy they should be aware of which I think is thoughtful and proactive. The food is so fresh, I don't think we have ever ordered something that was not tasty here and we have been a couple times now! I always like to start with a spinach artichoke dip, it's so tasty and comes with fresh veggies and their delicious bread. The pizza does not disappoint! The Bianca, one of my favorites, is a creamy pasta full of flavor, and comes in a big portion too so you may even have leftovers! Meatball bolognese is another great dish! If you don know what drink to order, their Sangrias are great! read more

eeee yum! what a happy, healthy meal i enjoyed at picazzo's for my birthday! i much prefer this location -- it's so ambient and cozy, especially compared to the louder, more spread out vibe of the north scottsdale one. i enjoyed the vegan mushroom pesto pasta with zoodles and i really appreciate not being up-charged for my plant-based meal or the zoodles. the service was incredibly friendly & attentive, and although there was only one chef in the kitchen at the time i came, i was eying everyone's food and it all looked amazing -- including my own, of course! i'm dying to come back for more! i ordered the same for my omnivore boyfriend, only with regular noodles, and he loved the food from here! to finish it off, i was given a free cheesecake!! it's the first one i've ever tried (as it's vegan) and it was soo nutty and tasty!!! my one note is that i vastly prefer vegetables to grains, and i subbed raw carrots for hummus with my hummus plate. the plate is about as big as my fist and i only got 6 baby carrots to eat it with. every time i asked for more, i was given a little petri dish of exactly 6 baby carrots & charged 1.50 more per each. slightly annoying, but i don't mind because the vegan options are amazing and i sincerely thank you for having options that keep beautiful creatures off our plates. read more

I've wanted to write a review for some time now. Picasso turns out to be the one place that is on the top of my list. The salads are wonderful and they taste very clean. They seem almost prepared with love and that's got to be kind of difficult, especially on a busy day and they do not skimp on anything. Love the dressings. When my children say hey mom, we're picking up something at Picazo's. What do you want? I am a very happy camper and I'm so hard to please. read more

I love and am so grateful for Picazzo's. Such a great place for people with GF sensitivities where we can eat "normal". Tonight we started with the focaccia with whipped ricotta then shared the spicy peanut chicken pasta which definitely packs a punch. It was pretty slow for a Monday night but the same great service you can always expect. read more

In today for take out for our team lunch. Everyone decided on pizza. Since my coworker and I came to pick up the food we added Baked wings with carrots and ranch dressing. Yum! The associate who took our order, Javier, is very personable. He's quiet yet friendly. Very engaging conversation before the next guests arrived to be seated. I selected a Meaty Meaty pizza with Alfredo sauce. My other coworkers ordered: a Naples Margherita with olive oil & garlic and added ham, a Meaty Meaty and a Hot Honey Fig & Salami. The wings were baked a little too long. Everyone loved their pizza. I enjoyed mine. Half came home for dinner and my husband had a couple slices. He loved it and even commented it was better than a local pizzeria. We need one in Surprise. read more

Service excellent, ambience, nice and food, well, just ok.. We were a party of 4 adults and one child. Our server was quick to come to the table to greet us and give us the menus. The options looks promising. We ordered spinach artichoke dip for an appetizer, three Bianca pasta and one pizza puttanesca, we also got one side of salad. The spinach artichoke dip came hot with crispy bread and veggies on the side. It was possibly the best dish we had. Unfortunately, the pasta and the pizza did not impress us. The pizza dough was nice and fluffy but the toppings were kinda lacking, it felt literally like toppings on a bread. The pasta had so much garlic, it was so hard to finish it, it was super overpowering, we couldn't taste any thing else. The side salad was not great either. It didn't have much flavor at all and was pretty expensive. We understand that this is a healthy restaurant providing options for vegans, gluten free individuals as well as diners who prefer a healthier choice but we were hoping we were going to like the food more, given the great reviews that we've read. For our meal, we paid over a $100+ without tip. Between the food and prices, this place didn't hit the mark for us. read more

We knew we wanted to eat here by the smell of the parking lot. We smelled the intense garlic on the wait to the barber and had to come back. This place was pretty solid. It's pretty dark inside so I had a hard time seeing the menu. We started with the brakes brie. This stuff is reason alone to come here. It comes with fig James, crisp apple slices, and whole roasted cloves of garlic. Then we split a spicy Calabrian pizza. It comes with pepperoni, whipped ricotta and chili solid. Nothing came home. Service was very attentive and they offer gluten free and vegan options for those looking. read more

Delicious pasta and so easy to order as a gluten free diner. I'm not personally vegan but they also have a purely vegan menu, so this would be the best of boat worlds for someone gluten free and vegan. The pasta itself is indistinguishable in flavor and texture from regular pasta, and the flavors of the food are great. I got the lunch combo with pesto sausage mushroom pasta with a mixed salad and am leaving feeling quite full. Great for groups. Service is good and they are very accommodating for substitutions. Would definitely return read more

This is a go to spot for date nights! Brian and I love the atmosphere, food, and the service is always amazing! The food is served on time and the ingredients aren't anything short of fresh. Everyone is so inviting and it's truly an experience to eat there. read more

Average good and abive average prices (even when compared to other similar concepts). Stopped in for dinner last week while spouse was away traveling. Had a pizza and a small side salad. Added a iced team to. With tax and tip my bill was $44.17. Absurd! $9 side ceasar and $22 personal size pizza with toppings are a ripoff. read more

Stopped by on a Friday night and the parking lot was busy. We sat on the patio and it was a really nice experience. The service was great and super helpful. They have a full page of vegan options on their menu not only can you get pizza, but they also have pasta, bowls, salad appetizers, and desserts. We decided to get Vegan Zos Chopped Salad and the vegan elote pizza. Both were so delicious and was the perfect mix of delicious salad with a great ranch and pizza! This vegan elote pizza is one we have had to go before and non-vegans have said it is delicious too! The cheesecake was vegan too and it was great to have so many vegan options. I will absolutely be back as they have a lot on the menu. They also have some great lunch specials which sound amazing too. A wonderful place to being plant based, vegan, gluten free vegetarian or meat eaters, something for everyone ! read more

I really just love the well thought-out menu here. Great starters, big salads, unique pizzas, and satisfying pastas... All gluten-free, lots of them vegan. It was really busy, I totally forgot it was Saturday and dinner time when I walked in as a solo, but they were kind to give me their last small table anyway. I wanted comfort food, so linguine with turkey meatballs and a Caesar salad was perfect. Although it was busy, every single server and host were very courteous and smiling the whole time I was there. read more

So happy that they had both vegan and gluten-free dishes. The vegan spicy chipotle chicken was very spicy and yummy. We also got the funghi florentine pizza without the mushrooms on the gluten-free crust. The combo of veggies and sauce was good, the vegan cheese was just a little too chewy for my taste. We placed our order to-go since it was almost close time, and the staff was super sweet and accommodating. read more

I'll be honest. I cried with happiness when we popped into Picazzo's. You know a restaurant is good when it doesn't need to advertise that it's gluten-free. It's just a great restaurant that happens to be gluten-free and serves Italian food with the best of them. They're a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but don't let that scare you. You won't be able to tell. Their homemade focaccia is light and fluffy and served warm to the table. The spicy southwestern chipotle pasta lives up to its name. I've never had a spicy pasta that was spicy and this delivered. It was delicious. Run, don't walk, to Picazzo's. You won't regret it. read more

Picazzo's is a place I am glad to have tried, because now I know to never come back. Aside from the food runners, everything about this location was, in my opinion, terrible. When we entered we noticed Picazzo's had a somewhat intimate vibe, which was nice! Then we were greeted by a kind hostess. She took us to our table immediately and wedged us in a tight corner where we were rubbing elbows with another table; super awkward. After too long our server took our drink order, and after way too long he brought finally our drinks. The server was crazy slow. After we finally received our drinks we placed our order. First to arrive was the cheesy bread. It looked perfect but had a taste of the complete opposite! Imagine taking a bite of a week old, dry biscuit covered in cheese; this was Picazzo's cheesy bread. It was so bad that I would have sent it back, except our server was MIA, so I just need up eating it. Followed shortly by the "cheesy bread" came our entrees. The pizza flavor was delicious! We went with the Hot Honey Fig pizza. Again, the flavor was epic, however, it was on the same bread as the "cheesy bread" which ruined the pizza for me. We also order Rigatoni and a kids Mac n' cheese, which were nothing special. As for service, the food runners were awesome. My drink was empty for a while, and without them, I would have only had one drink. Which to me is unacceptable when I'm paying $4.50 for an iced tea. The server was terrible who seemed only interested in upselling items. Once he took our order, his visits to our table were over. read more

Kids took us here while we were visiting. Since hubby is gf - Italian food has to be the hardest food to find that tastes "normal." The restaurant was nicely decorated (on the smaller side ) and had a nice patio where we ended up sitting. Service was lovely and put up with all of our questions. Ordered several appetizers- food that usually doesn't come in gf options- that was delicious - meatballs, cheese bread and spinach artichoke dip. We the settled into our entrees- hubby got lasagna, the three of us got different pizzas the spicy Calabrian, hot honey fig jam , bbq chicken and the funghi both gf and " normal" and the son got a gf pasta - all delish. The cool thing was that they let us get half and half on the pizza so we tried several on one pizza dough! We did have an issue with ordering a pizza with a substitution and not getting it correctly but it was quickly refired and we left with a brand new Pizza that made for a great next day snack. Overall food and service were terrific and can't wait to come back soon!! read more
