Hello friends!! If you haven't given Tratto's a try, then you're missing out!! The pasta is fantastic, fresh, and full of flavor. I can't say I have a favorite, because I LOVE them all. I still have yet to find one I don't like. Restaurant atmosphere is cheerful and upbeat, with lots of great chatter and eating. Service is fast, efficient, consistent, and friendly!! I recommend, highly! Grade: A read more

Tratto can be tough to find! We walked past it before finding it again. We came here for a friends birthday and saw Mr and Mrs bianco. The restaurant was super strict and said we couldn't have the cake that we brought. Mr Bianco originally said yes so he gave us some desserts which were great. Overall food is good but not excellent I would say. The green beans were way too overcooked and not enough flavor. Portion sizes are small. My pasta I got was very good! Prices are expensive. read more

I was at Tratto last week for the first time, visiting family from out of state. The ambience is fantastic and Chris Bianco was in house. From the first bite of bread; ricotta with honey; a salad and then the amazing bucatini peppery pasta- OMG just delicious. Every morsel. We ordered the grilled pork chops with Mclendon apple slices; and the ranch pioccolo chicken with lemon. Perfection!!. We also ordered two desserts for our party of 4 to share. One was an olive oil drenched cake beyond delicious and the second a chocolate budino, outstanding. Chris Bianco came over to our table and was the nicest, friendliest host. We spoke for a few minutes and he made a fantastic meal even more special. I can't say enough about this stellar dining experience. We can't wait to back the next time we visit. The service was fantastic as well. read more

Tratto - Grilled pork chops DELICIOUS !!!!! - Italian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I've been here a few times now and it's always good! The menu has seasonal dishes so there's Anaya's something new to try. This time we had some drinks (the daiquiri and mezcal one) which were both yummy, and we got the Cacio e Pepe and the seasonal pasta dish which was really good but small. We also got the chicken which was super yummy, though the sauce it came with was a bit salty. The bread and whipped ricotta and the little gem salad were delicious too. We also got the asparagus which has a good leek sauce and then the potatoes which weren't bad but weren't out if this world either. Overall a good dinner and we'll be back! read more

I've been here before when they were at the downtown location and already loved it--especially the cacio e pepe (my favorite!) and the service. Somehow, coming back after the move was even better. Melissa was an absolute gem--knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The chicken was hands down the most flavorful, perfectly seasoned, least-dry chicken I've had at a restaurant. And the tartine for dessert? amazing. The whole menu feels really uniquely crafted and grounded in local foods. The open kitchen is such a quaint, intentional detail that pairs beautifully with the interior design of the space. Wish I'd taken more photos. 12/10 night. Thanks, Melissa & kitchen! read more

Frickin Netflix... Yeah, we noticed this restaurant because of Chris Bianco's episode of ChefsTable Pizza series, and we bookmarked it for a special occasion. We came in with too high an expectation, or maybe we had appropriate expectations that should have been met. Either way, its a one-and-done. The Chicken Liver appetizer was tasty and a delicacy, but the ratio of liver to bread was a bit high for our palettes. The Limoncello Negroni was tasty but stronger than we anticipated. The fettucini al limone had some spice due to the chili flakes. Fresh pasta in a delightful sauce. We did appreciate the NY strip, whatever seasonings the chef used made the crust fantastic. And the single quartered russet potato with cheese shavings and rosemary paired well with the steak, but the price point was well outside the experience. And based on our waitress' reaction, we can safely assume that chef Bianco doesn't often make an appearance. The night could have been saved had the valet followed through with his promise to bring us the Porsche Cayenne instead of our Kia Soul. read more

Came in for the pasta and unfortunately not worth the money. Mr. Bianco should stick to pizza. The focaccia was not very soft. The whipped ricotta was fine. The cacio e pepe was ok along with the rigatoni. Everything was fine. Didn't blow me away and I had high expectations. For the price it was very average. read more

Triple digit temperatures make for some perks! Had walk in availability on a Friday night to try another of Chris's restaurant.

My friend was raving about this place and she took me and other friend here. She definitely wasn't wrong!!! I let her order everything since she knew what was good. We got Cacio e pepe and pork chop. Pork is usually not my top choice but their pork chop was absolutely delicious!!! And their cacio e pepe was probably the best I've ever had. I love that their sauce was not too heavy and it was just right. Tables are nicely spaced and their decor is nice. Service was great as well. Overall a great restaurant! read more

We had an incredible dinner at Tratto! The server took care of us throughout, as well as a number of people who took plates, brought food and checked on us. We never felt ignored. The place was super cute, yet spacious compared to many trattorias. The kitchen was open to the beautiful bar area. The tables, chairs and decor felt like I was eating at my grandma's house, in the best way possible. It set the tone for a delicious meal. We started with some drinks. I got the Prosecco by the glass, which was perfectly chilled, bubbly and slightly sweet. My companions ordered a New York sour, which came was a little outline of New York in the foam, and the Negroni. We also got the focaccia with whipped feta and honey. The focaccia was so buttery, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. If we weren't ordering a ton of other food, I could just eat that as a meal. For the table, we got three pastas -- ravioli, bucatini amatriana and the cacio e peppe. All pastas were cooked perfectly al dente with perfectly paired sauces. My favorite was the cacio e peppe. The pecorino gave it a creamy yet nutty flavor, perfectly balanced by a little spice from the black pepper. For our protein, we got a small order of the pork chops with apples and a creamy sauce. I didn't have much room from the pastas, but from the bites I had, the pork chops were cooked well, despite being thin, and the sauce added some extra moisture and dimension. It was a tad salty, but it worked with the apples. For desert, we split the sticky toffee pudding. It was dense and sweet and I have nothing bad to say about it! We also ordered a bottle of wine for our meal and were impressed by the selection. There was a good variety Italian reds from light to heavier bodied. Most importantly, a good mix of medium bodied reds to compliment the variety of dishes we ordered. read more

Love Pizzeria Bianco and Bar Bianco, and now they've got that Chef's Table hype. So I was extra excited to finally try Tratto. The appetizers were great, but the pastas, which is what you come for, were overseasoned and undercooked - definitely under al dente (coming from someone that lived in Italy for a bit). The cacio e pepe was way too salty, and I needed 4 of the tiny glasses of water they serve you to counter 1/2 of it. The fettucine al limone was so greasy and swimming in oil, it made my stomach hurt just looking at it. We could barely taste lemon, the chili flakes were so overpowering (and we love spicy foods). The cocktail was watered down, and everything was overpriced - especially given the area. Terrible location, did not feel safe parking, and did not want to valet out front. Super disappointed. read more

Celebrating my Dad's birthday and Italian was his choice. Several years ago we had a very nice meal at Tratto and elected to return. Reservations are a must and the stand alone builing is old with a cool/ simple vibe. The old tin ceilings tiles and simple decor add a nice ambiance. It feels like a good Italian meal awaits. We started with an order of garlic focaccia bread with EVOO that was very tasty, especially the top garlicy crust layer. The waiter brought us cool watermelon cubes with aleppo pepper and salt garnish. It was simple, refreshing and great punch in the mouth. We will be stealing this idea. GREAT JOB! The seared chicken livers, fig jam, and rosemary on a grilled piece of sourdough bread was great. The California stone fruit salad with tumeric, mint marinated cucumbers, burrata and pistachios was amazing. Again, another crunchy and delicious tasting, light summer salad that will completely shock you. Each bite has a unique flavor profile and should be on your must have list. The buccatini all amatriciani with guanciale, and pecorino romano was good, but a bit salty. Our final dish was the fettuccine al limone with garlic, butter and parmigiano reggiano. Another good meal, but not memorable. The wait staff was a bit aloof, removing plates while some of us were still eating and a bit pushy to get us paid and out the door. We were early diners and the place was busy but not packed. I think Tratto is one of the better Italian restaurants in the Valley. Creative meals, good portions, different tasty flavors, innovative, but the staff needs to learn to read the table. I will be back and recommend the staff "pump the brakes" and let the patrons enjoy the evening. Tratto is not a dine and dash establishment. read more

I was there with my husband last week. We were looking for a place to go for a date night and heard great things from friends. The food was not as great as we had hoped. The pasta was too salty, and I like salt. To counteract the salt, we decided to splurge on dessert and get one of everything... and oh, my, GOD. We are from New York, so we had high expectations with the Cheesecake. And it was TO DIE FOR. The little chocolates were a-dor-a-ble! Overall, I would come back, but just for the dessert. read more

Had dinner at Tratto for first time Sat night. If I owned this place I'd shit can the hostess. Unfriendly arrogant obnoxious. No smile no greeting. Horrible intro to your establishment. Had the bread and pasta appetizers both excellent. Little gem salad excellent. Pork chops and chicken, chops very thin but flavorful. Chicken not so much. Dry little flavor. Fingerling potatoes, cold hard bad. No real liquor, no Tito's or Bombay just some home made brands that were weak. Desert the chocolate pudding fabulous. Dinner including $70 tip $426. Not a spot I'd come back to. Just had dinner at my Italian daughter, materially better in each category, but venue lacks intimacy read more

From the moment you enter this neighborhood gem, you know you are in for a treat. It's warmly lit by soft candles with an open kitchen. The team graciously moves about the dining room, creating a buzz that's pleasurable. From the hospitality, to the flavors and portions, Tratto excels at creating a memorable experience. Highly recommend for locals and those willing to travel for a wonderful dining adventure. And those that enjoy wine will love their list! read more

Came here for a birthday dinner for my mom last night and everything we ordered to eat was truly delicious and amazing. Unfortunately I just felt like the service was lackluster and unenthusiastic. When I made the reservation online, I noted we were there for a birthday celebration. When we arrived the hostess was kinda quiet so I said "we have a birthday reservation!" No happy birthday was uttered and we were quietly taken to our seat. When our server came over, she was also very quiet and when I made another point to mention we were celebrating a birthday, she also didn't say anything in regards to that and kept things very short and not sweet. No one was outright rude, but man... no one was cheerful or excited to be there. Like I said, food was fabulous & flavorful but I was disappointed in the bland service. read more

Once you eat in Italy....you become a harsh critic. Is this fair? I have to speak my truth (insert clown emoji) My favorite Italian restaurants should combine a delightful ambiance with simple, quality ingredients. This place does not hit it for us. I had to rest with my experience, and read some other reviews, because I wanted to love this place. I saved my visit for a special occasion, my bday. 1) Ambiance: I think the decor inside is just beautiful . I lived in LA, grew up in CA, and this made me feel like I was home. Gritty outside, lush inside. I love this. 2) Drinks: We sat at the bar. More on the seating later... The Montepulciano was overly fruity, and my husband felt his red was just Meh. 3) Direct server was friendly...more to follow 4) Food: Lemon Pasta w/red chili flakes. Would not order again. I felt the lemon was heavy & reminded me of a Italian lemon desert. My hubs felt same. Crispy potato app was not crispy at all & was reminiscent of the 80's potato skins served in an Irish pub. Kinda mushy. The accompanying aoili was bland. The porchetta sandwich 5/5, fantastic! There were a few things that really turned me off about this place. I never walk in to a restaurant and feel like they are lucky I've chosen the place. Having said that, I do not expect the staff to make me feel like I'm lucky to be there. We arrived just after 5 for HH. A Friday evening. The bar, which has lots of seating was completely empty, and only only one other couple arrived by the time we left. The hostess (she looks like a very tall Wednesday from the Adam's family, and was pretty smug, directed another staff member to take us to the bar and seat us at the corner. We literally were not sitting next to each other, but had the corner of the bar between us. I did not feel like a birthday girl at all :( The bartender proceeds to say that she is so excited that we get to have "this experience." I don't know man...Back in the mid 2000's when Pizzeria Bianco was named the best Pizza in the Nation, I tried several of their locations...I don't get it. I do not know why I expected more for my money at this place. I've read comments about the location...Uber would be the way to go. We railed from midtown & walked...with my gray hair, I felt like I was taking my life in to my hands. Luckily all was good & despite my review, that porchetta sandwich would not be a bad last meal to have in a beautiful place. You can also get this at Pane Bianco, but the HH price here can't be beat. read more

The food was delicious and the ambience was charming. We were celebrating our anniversary and unfortunately the server really soured my experience. We ordered cocktails, an appetizer, pastas, and later, dessert. All portions were quite generous and I had leftovers. When ordering, our server made a face and said, "Is that all you guys are getting? People usually order more." We explained that we didn't want any more food at the time, and she scoffed and slapped her order notebook shut like she was angry with us. We both thought it was really weird, especially after we asked to make sure it wasn't a prix fixe menu. There seemed to be expectations that surprised us, and I wish the attitude would have been more hospitable instead of making us feel uncomfortable. The other staff seemed polite and friendly, though. read more

Amazing pasta and food! Service was outstanding too! Loved the decor. Can't wait to go back!

We enjoyed the old location as a refreshing break from the endless chain restaurants in metro Phoenix, but after this visit, we won't be back. Even at half capacity on a Wednesday at 5:30, the noise was overwhelming. We asked to be moved to a quieter area, which helped, but I can only imagine how loud it gets when full. The food was the real letdown. The gem salad was just okay, until we hit large flakes of salt that made it unpleasant and overly salty. The cacio e pepe was also very salty with a strange aftertaste. The pork chops were small and lacked flavor. The broccolini was nicely charred, but the sauce didn't work. We decided to cut our losses and skipped dessert. Service was good, and I wish we had said something after the salad, but we assumed the rest would be better. It wasn't. We enjoyed similar dishes at their previous location, so I'm not sure what changed, but this visit missed the mark across the board. read more

The newest creation from Chris Blanco, a recent James Beard Award recipient. Tratto is in an industrial area near downtown that is being reclaimed. Excellent revolving menu options. Our 4-top shared the big salad and a variety of small plates. We did try the chicken (really it was a Cornish hen) small portion for the price. Great service. Great craft cocktails but over priced for sure. This place is a winner. read more

The downside: central Phoenix isn't necessarily the safest area... The upside: Tratto is a hidden gem nestled in downtown-ish Phoenix.The food is stellar! The bread appetizer is INSANEly good, so I ordered a 2nd. The salad with the pomegranates was great, so I also ordered a 2nd. The chicken was spectacular. The salmon dish was another pleaser. Carrots and potatoes side dishes were yummy! My only advice: make the trip to Tratto! read more

New location. New review. Tratto was moved into an old warehouse east of downtown PHX. You might want to double check your car is locked, a super sketchy area. Empty lots are adjacent. A bizarre location for such a high end restaurant. The interior is beautiful. It felt like a movie set. Vaulted ceilings, exposed brick, open kitchen concept. The menu concept is family style Italian and the menu is divided into 3 subcategories. We ordered the focaccia with whipped ricotta to start. Nailed it. 5 stars. We then shared 2 of the 3 pasta dishes available. Amazing. What was underwhelming were the expensive pork and chicken dishes. Our group consisted of 4 people. My question is- how is this family style when each portion is so small? No doubt this is quality over quantity but I think I would have left more satisfied if I ordered individually. read more

There are a handful of restaurants in the Metro area that we love going for special occasions. Not that we don't go to these places for just everyday life occasions, but we especially go to these Chefs because of the not only their incredible skills but also their humanity. They are family to us! As part of my Birthday Tour which typically lasts for a month, we had to start with the chicken livers and the gem lettuce salad. Next the pasta course .. tortellini and then the special salmon with a citrus honey spicy glaze! We were surprised by birthday cake but we added panna cotta and an espresso and cappuccino to our feast. Erin, Cassidy, and Chef Jose and his crew took incredibly good care of us and we brought some pork chops home with us to continue the celebration in our house. Chef Chris Bianco, thank you for the great presence that you have always brought to the community! Dr. B and P read more

Great service, yummy drinks and the most amazing food. A sweet environment that is conducive to enjoying your friends. We will return.

Excited to experience Tratto's Italian menu from James Beard Award-winning chef Chris Bianco. Incredibly flavorful courses, beautiful presentation and excellent pacing. Victor was a great server and menu navigator. Some Yelp reviews have been critical of Tratto's portion sizes and price points. Those were not issues for our dining group. We started with the Market Salad (Arugula, Frisee and Apples), Focaccia and the Seared Chicken Livers (with Plum Jam and Fried Rosemary) from the Antipasti menu. From the Primi section, the superb Rigatoni (with Spicy Pork Ragu) and from the secret menu, the signature Cacio E Pepe (made with pasta water, pepper and cheese). From the Secondi section, the incredible Thin Cut Pork Chops (with Apples and Fried Sage), with a side of the Wood-Roasted Mushrooms. We had a great meal and can't wait to return. read more

A Love Letter to Italian Simplicity, Arizona Soul, and Summer on a Plate As a longtime devotee of Chris Bianco's pizza temples in Scottsdale, I already knew his culinary instincts were nothing short of divine. I even had the pleasure of meeting the man himself at his weekend takeover of Che Fico in San Francisco--a master at work, radiating passion and humility. So when my wife and I visited my sister and brother-in-law over the 4th of July weekend, Tratto was non-negotiable. And it was, without question, the most soul-stirring meal we've had in years. Let's talk about the food. We ordered like we meant it--family style, like the Bianco spirit demands. 1. California Stone Fruit * Turmeric & Mint Marinated Cucumber * Burrata * Pistachio. This was sunshine and texture in every bite. The stone fruit was perfectly ripe, the cucumber added a bright, spiced crunch, and the burrata? Dreamy. Creamy. Cooling. The pistachio added just the right toasty snap. A dish so fresh, it felt alive. 2. Bucatini all'Amatriciana * Guanciale * Pecorino Romano. Bold and deeply satisfying. The guanciale was salty and crisp, the tomato sauce intense and just fiery enough, and the bucatini captured it all like a sponge with perfect bite. The Pecorino Romano tied it together with its salty tang. Classic, but never basic. 3. Fettuccine al Limone * Garlic * Butter * Parmigiano Reggiano. Bright, elegant, and deceptively simple. This dish whispered flavor instead of shouting. The garlic was soft and fragrant, the butter and cheese made it luscious, and the lemon added that sharp, clean edge that lifted every bite. My wife and I kept glancing at each other like, How is this so good? 4. Polenta. Silky, golden, and soul-warming. Like someone cooked you comfort in a bowl. A perfect canvas between courses, grounding everything else with its quiet perfection. 5. Wood-Roasted Mushrooms * Lemon * Thyme. Earthy and aromatic, kissed by smoke and char. The lemon and thyme added brightness and complexity, but the star here was the incredible meaty texture. These mushrooms could convert a carnivore. 6. Fig Leaf-Wrapped Halibut * Heirloom Tomato * Colatura * Herb Salad. A show-stopper. The halibut was buttery and perfectly cooked, delicately perfumed by the fig leaf. The heirloom tomatoes burst with sweet acidity, and the colatura (that beautiful Italian fish sauce) gave the dish a subtle anchoring depth. The herb salad added freshness that brought the whole plate into perfect balance. 7. Chocolate Cherry Cake. Dense, dark, and decadent--but never too heavy. The cherries gave it a juicy brightness that made it feel indulgent and summery all at once. The ideal finale--and the very best cake I've ever had in my life. The atmosphere: Warm, intimate, unpretentious--but with a quiet confidence. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, proud of what they were serving, and rightly so. The whole experience felt like dining in the home of someone who really knows how to cook--and loves doing it for people they care about. Bottom line: Tratto isn't just a restaurant. It's a reflection of Chris Bianco's relentless pursuit of purity, balance, and honest-to-God deliciousness. Already counting the days until we're back. read more

Imagine being so full of yourself that you mock the elderly for being cold in your restaurant. Note: This happened in January when it was colder in Phoenix. I wasn't going to say anything about this experience until big shot Chris Bianco decided to disrespect my elderly parents over our request to shut the garage wall that made the very expensive dining experience unpleasant in 43 degree weather. The first time I went to this restaurant was a year ago in the winter time with three other people, and we had an excellent experience, great food, and great atmosphere. There were no open windows. We weren't freezing at our table and it was a lovely dining experience on par with the cost. The second time I visited the restaurant was in the summer, again perfect temperature. Great experience. So I was assuming the 3rd experience would be better. My parents are big fans of Jimmy Kimmel and really enjoy Chris Bianca's other pizza restaurants so I thought it would be fun to take them to Tratto. We were surprised when we came in and it was freezing inside the restaurant. My parents are in their 80s and are extra sensitive to cold and unpleasant temperatures while dining, especially when dropping $100 a plate. So we asked the waitress if they could shut the giant garage window that was creating cold drafts throughout the restaurant. And she said they keep it open for the pizza ovens. I explained that I was here in the winter last year, and the window was not open and that we were cold. We were ignored, nothing was done. After that, I thought to myself well we will only be dining here in the summer. Well, apparently our complaint got back to Chris Bianco.. the owner. As we were ending our dinner and starting dessert we noticed other patrons putting their jackets on due to the cold. So we put ours on too.. as we were cold. At that point Bianco came over and talked to the table behind us and made a purposely very loud obnoxious comment to them, but directed at us, Mocking us for wearing our jackets inside while we were eating dinner when it was 60° outside. Well actually, Chris , it may have been 60 degrees at 4pm, but by 8pm it was 48 degrees and by the time we left it was 43° outside. Not actually open window weather for a fine dining experience. Number one, I was shocked the owner of the restaurant would mock his own customers so they could hear it and number two, both my parents are in their 80's and my fathers walker was propped up behind him. So he's mocking handicapped seniors. What a nice guy!! We are from New Jersey, and have been to many fantastic Italian restaurants from Trenton, NJ to New York City to San Francisco and Los Angeles. I can tell you that none of those restaurants ever treated their customers with such disrespect, as famous big shot Chris Bianco. To come over and actually mock the elderly for asking to be comfortable during their very expensive dining experience is beyond the pale. So we won't be going back in warmer weather or colder weather. Chris can just take his open window and shove it. read more

He is one of the top chefs in the country. This wonderful place is special and treat it as such. Take your love for a special night out It is not the most expensive but it is not inexpensive. The wines are carefully selected. The menu is so delicious that when we have been there we were never disappointed. The service knows the menu and will help you if it is a hard choice. I love the ambience. It is not ostentatious you will feel comfortable being there. Please enjoy. read more

I've been a fan of the marvel that is Chef Chris Bianco for some time now. My friend was able to get us a reservation for the bar, before we headed over to the Footprint Center. We arrived just before six and were taken straight to our seats. The restaurant isn't all that big, which I liked because it provides an intimate vibe. The bartender was super friendly and provided such wonderful service. My friend and I decided to split some plates and as you can tell in the photos below, we had a decent variety. Mamma Mia! If I could eat one dish for the rest of my life, it would hands down be the gnocchi. I think I teared up a bit because it was that good. I had to try my hardest not to devour the entire serving, because I was supposed to be splitting this with my friend. Order this dish! Chef's kiss! I will most definitely be back and highly recommend making a reservation well in advance, as there's limited seating. Very close to the Footprint Center and they offer complimentary valet. Bravo to the team here and Chef Bianco on creating such a great spot with phenomenal food. read more

What a great experience! We went on a Friday night with an 8pm reservation and were seated at our favorite seats at the bar. Kaitlin crafted perfect cocktails for us; the best Manhattan my wife had enjoyed in a long time and the perfect Martini for me. We split the gem lettuce salad, agnolotti and fettuccini with mushrooms. Utterly delicious. Ash made the entree suggestions and she also picked an excellent wine. Aly helped with everything as well, and Erin not only runs a tight ship, but is the perfect hostess. The ladies all made us feel very special and took great care of us. Tratto is a wonderful place to dine with phenomenal food and hospitality- we've already made our next reservation. Go! read more
