We ordered at the counter and got a number before getting our own table (wasn't difficult since there was plenty of seating). We ordered the Rochelle Rochelle and a seasonal grandma slice which was a mushroom and caramelized onion square. For $23, the Rochelle Rochelle was HUGE and so worth it. We split a sandwich between the both of us and it was just the perfect amount. Piled high with crispy onions and filled with flavorful beef, the sandwich was a beast. The pizza slice was my favorite since it wasn't super heavy but had a strong mushroom/truffle flavor I loved. I do wish there were more onions in the slice but it was delicious nonetheless. Overall, I would definitely come back for the sandwiches since they have many options! Ratings Rochelle Rochelle: 4/5 Seasonal grandma slice: 4.5/5

This place had been on my list for the longest time, but I rarely make it out to this area during…read moretheir open hours but recently I was lucky enough to be in the area after an appointment and finally got to try them out! 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!

It absolutely pains me to have to do this but it's been bothering me for a while and I cannot just…read morelet it slide. I've been coming here religiously for 4.5 years since moving to AZ. My two favorite dishes that never miss are the Lasagna and the Chicken Parm. Like clockwork, it has always been impeccable. Sadly my most recent experience will likely be my last experience. I ordered the Chicken Parm and when it came out there was something missing from my plate. Instead of the usual Rigatoni Pasta with Vodka Sauce there were a couple of stale chunks of potatoes and some sorry looking asparagus spears. I asked the bartender where is the pasta. She responded that it no longer comes with pasta and that I could order some at an additional charge. It was at that moment that I knew I would never return again. Never in my entire life have I ever ordered Chicken Parm at an Italian Restaurant and not have it come with pasta. That is like ordering a hamburger and it doesn't come with a bun. Then they tell you that you are more than welcome to order a bun at an additional cost. It was like the ultimate slap in the face. I understand that businesses are under financial pressure in these tough times. I can assure you though that this restaurant does not suffer from this fate. There is simply zero excuse for this type of behavior from ownership. Their meals are already priced near the top of the market here in Scottsdale, and rightfully so as their food is top tier. But to raise prices and then remove a staple item off of the menu is asinine. Again, I really do not like writing negative reviews for businesses because I am a fellow business owner as well. However the consumer in me cannot stand for this type of treachery. I am sick and tired of paying more and getting less. This is not meant to deter others from experiencing this place. It is meant to let management that loyal customers are dissatisfied with their business practices. Finally, I am not a cheapskate either. I always tip at least 30% which is way above the average. I am not tone-deaf, I sympathize with restaurant staff and wage gaps so every little bit helps in the service industry.

We ordered house wine and a pizza, calamari, and grilled veggies from the Happy Hour menu. Our only disappointment was the pizza this time: really doughy.

If you come here you must - must - get the calamari as it's always swell (that was a typo but I love that word "swell"). We'll be back to continue to sample more menu items and enjoy their lovely patio after the weather comes to its senses.

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!
