13 Best Italian Restaurants near Anthem

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

“This place is always packed, and all those people can't be wrong. I'm a door dasher, and this place keeps me busy every night. I've had the pizza, and it's good . But it's the staff for me that's important. They are all friendly and efficient.“

“I loved it, food was delicious the atmosphere felt great but even better safe. Anyway it really wasn’t that busy so I got my tables Appetizers in like 3 minutes which was good. Then mainly why this is 4 stars is because it was way less busy than most of the time but still busy so I just automatically assumed that the food would come quick. SPOILER IT DIDNT. It took like 25 minutes. The staff was good ESPECIALLY our sever Jake, but I do want to say sometimes it felt like they just weren’t in a rush to get you served or staff mainly the person cleaning was spaced out for a few seconds. In all the food was great but needed to come faster.“

“Delicious food, excellent service,“

“My husband and I were just here to celebrate my birthday and our anniversary. I just ate the best pizza I've ever had, and the churro dulce de leche dessert is incredible! We can't wait to come back!“

“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“

“We live the food at all the Babbo's. We usually go to the one in North Glendale, but we work in Scottsdale and go to the one at the Pavilions often too. This one up North off Tatum is way out of our way, but we randomly decided to go. Food was great, as usual, service was not so great. The lady serving us was snooty, and never smiled. She also didn't come around often to fill out drinks or bread and oil. Location is in a strip-mall. All you can see is a big McDonald's and part of a car wash. It's not as nice as the others we frequent, but better than the one off 12th Street. That one has the worst atmosphere.“

“Good pizza, but just don't order a pepperoni at the end of the night with a military discount or you get the "thank you for your service" special of EVERY TOPPING THEY HAVE, regardless of allergy. But still top tier taste and killer lemonade.“

“I love this location! Their food is always top notch!

Recently I had the pleasure of not only delivering for them through a very popular food app but also sat down at their bar area for a dinner break near the cash register.

Carson was working it and wow is he impressive! Such a talent with a wonderful personality and excellent customer service skills! He's a keeper!!

Also! They have a special on Spaghetti and Meatballs for $9.99 on Wednesdays and to say it was delicious is an understatement! And their garlic cheese bread...omg so wonderful!

One of their other employees also came over and personally asked me how it was. Of course I said it was super yummy!

The atmosphere is also so relaxing and just a great time!! Great job!!“

“Good pizza and great service. Pleasantly surprised..“

“If you are looking for some NY style pizza this is the place! You can order a slice or a whole pie. You gotta fold the slices! They are big just like you walked into a pizzeria in NYC. Everything we had was delicious!“

“Delicious pizza and live music outside on a Friday nite. Winning on all fronts ! I like that each table has its own heater too. But back to the pizza…generous toppings, loaded with cheese, their sauce is slightly sweet. We added the antipasto salad. It has a variety of toppings beautifully presented. The prepackaged dressing was the only disappointment. Oh, and they have a smoking section. Didn’t realize that til we sat down. As a non smoker I could have done without the 2nd hand smoke.“

“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!“
