11 Best Italian Restaurants near Anthem

“They have the best meatballs. My go to for lunch when I’m in the area.“

“Idk if it was just a lucky night or if they have new staff, but they hit the mark tonight. My family ordered pizza for tonight's football game, and it was DELICIOUS. I didnt feel like I needed to blot down grease, the pizza was cooked perfectly, and so delicious I actually finished my entire small. Good job barros and I hope this continues.“

“Why you should visit this Olive Garden: friendly greeting upon entering, decor is like all Olive Gardens warm and the aroma of Italian food. Great service, good food, well laid out with a roomy feel.
I chose to sit at the bar, Emma greeted me with a friendly smile, handed a menu to me and asked about a beverage to start. I chose Calamari as a starter, which was good. Sauces were very good. I asked for a Blue Moon and a water. Emma recommended the Shrimp & Chicken Carbonara (sauce was excellent)!! It came with their house salad and breadsticks which is always good. A lot of food, so I took some home. Emma is very courteous, attentive, making sure I was doing okay, great bartender and server. My overall experience was excellent!! I highly recommend visiting this OG..“

“Food was delicious, staff was friendly, great atmosphere“

“I had no idea of what to order.. I let the cashier make my picks. very pleasant and sweet. Her choices were really good. thanks“

“Wow, what a surprise! From the outside you just can't tell how good this restaurant is. Nice surprise! Friendly staff that helped us choose a favorite. Pizza was super yummy. And they brought out bread while we waited on order (like the way you get chips & salsa but it was bread & red sauce). Loved it!“

“The Barro's on Dove Valley, in the Fry's shopping center is FAR superior to the one in Anthem. This one puts plenty of toppings on, and the Anthem store hardly puts ANY on, even when you order extra! I will be coming to the Dove Valley Barro's from now on!“

“A great neighborhood pizza place! They serve pizza by the slice for lunchtime at a great price. Barro’s on Cave Creek Rd is very supportive of local school groups like our high school band, and always willing to host a restaurant night to help us out. (Fast turn on getting the turnout numbers and check too) We absolutely love our local Barro’s Pizza! And yes, of course the pizza is delicious. Win-win for everyone, and scrumptious pizza. 🍕🍕❤️❤️“

“Great pizza 🍕 and service“

“I'm a Chicago guy, so I only eat pizza there. Arizona's garbage water is why it's 4 stars. But, the bartenders and servers are great! They're outgoing and engage with customers in such a personable manner. The atmosphere has been super fun and we've met some great people each time we go! Having spent quite a few football Sundays there, we probably spent more than the average person due to drinks, but that's common at places you spend 4-5 hours at. The outdoor patio has live music certain nights and is big enough to handle large groups. The karaoke can be pretty entertaining when people think their Donny & Marie Osmond or whatever they were singing. Hey, sometimes it happens after a few cocktails.“

“Its run by a bunch of kids on their phones but I guess what else are you going to do as a kid working... the pizza doesn't quite live up to the Ray's name... just falls short of being excellent but it's still really good. Nice specials. Soda machine was down and they only had canned pepsi... which is a crime in my opinion. I'd eat hear again if I didnt want to drive all the way to Stevies lol“
