Charged 50 cents for extra salad dressing when there was very little on the salad initially. Restaurant was not busy (5PM) and still service was slow and staff seemed more interested in chatting with each other.

Pizzas are amazing!! So fresh and crispy right out of the fire ?Kid-friendliness: They are very kid friendly. The pizza maker threw flour the glass window where me sets up the pizzas. She jumped and we all had a good laugh!

This is in the main part of Verrado in Buckeye. The atmosphere is really nice, as it looks over a nice little park and it's decorated nice on the inside. The service was also good and very attentive. The food was average. My wife and I got individual pizzas and felt like we could have gotten better pizzas at mod pizza or blaze pizza for cheaper. Maybe an off night, but we will try again.

High prices here. You pay for the location . Outside seating is very nice and the view of the park lovely. I don't go here often because of the cost.

I love Ciao Grazie. I love cannolis. I love pizza. Anyone rating less than 5 stars is probably used to dumb American pizza, which is an entirely different product.Also, I’ve been pregnant both times I’ve been here so you know that this review has not been clouded by wine brain. Just clear headed honesty.

I love this place it's the only Italian restaurant in this area and it's always full but it moves rapidly. Their appetizers and their food is so good. I had the meatballs for appetizer and all meat pizza for dinner and it was delicious. Their pizza is so good they have a variety of special pizza and I'm going to try all of them. Their variety of wines and drinks are great. You will not disappointed.

The worst pizza I've ever had at a restaurant. In fact I've had better frozen pizzas!! Our pizza tasted like a saltine cracker with tomato sauce on top and the meatballs were way overcooked and lacked any flavor. The service here was slow, there was only one person working that was seating people and serving on a busy Sunday at lunch time so not sure what was up with that as well. I'm not sure how this place has the rating it has. I expected better due to the area which it is located in an upscale part of Buckeye, Verrado on Main Street. The prices certainly reflect better than we were given. Also they charge a 3% up charge to use a credit card which was not disclosed to us and if we'd known we would have used cash. We will not be returning here ever.

Overpriced!! Food is average at best. ordered 2 Margherita Pizzas(which were incredibly small for the $$) 1 Chicken Parm(ok)& a $12 Cesaer salad (which consisted of a handful of romaine & Dressing. No Croutons or Parmasean Cheese, (looked more like a complimentary salad for the Chicken Parm meal). Would not recommend, & this isn't our 1st time here. Food is still overpriced & skimpy portions all around.

The food was decent at best. The appetizer was the highlight of the evening. The server seemed like he was not "feeling it."But the Rockstar of the whole evening was the young lady bussing the tables. She was on top of her game that night. Within one minute, she was at the table bussing and cleaning it. If I could, I would've tipped the busses rather than the server.The bang for the buck just wasn't there for me nor my wife. I am doubtful we will go back.
The food taste really good but the portion size was not my favorite spent $100 and was still really hungry the hand salad that we got I could grab it with one hand if I wanted to and that was like $13 for a salad that was like the size for a kid me and my wife just moved to Verrado but won't be coming back to this location. Better pizza places save your money. Service was very polite and sweet. On the upside

Super friendly staff. Everything I've had from here is excellent. You can tell it's actually cooked and not just warmed up. One of my favorite spots.

First time coming here, wanting to try something on family night and really don’t like leaving bad reviews, but I would not return to this restaurant. I will start with the positives, the server we had was extremely nice. I told her my preference in drink and she had an amazing old fashioned made. I had two! But, the food lacks heavily. We ordered the Al Fresca pizza and the crust was like eating a cracker. The cheese was non existent, but maybe we ordered the wrong one. There were other tables that ordered pepperoni pizzas and they seemed to be more pizza style and inviting with the cheese pull you get excited about with having pizza. We also ordered the chicken Alfredo. Pasta sauce was beyond flavorful. Most delicious dish we had. But the portion was like off a kids menu. The portion was so small. My daughter loved her Cesar salad and my husband enjoyed his drinks as well. We were sat next to the bathroom and the smell of chemicals was overwhelming. We also witnessed a worker cleaning off a table spraying cleaner on the salt and pepper shakers. Seemed non observant and inconsiderate. It was also so quiet you can hear other people’s conversations. Just overall disappointed. Especially with a 3% charge for using credit card. This made me laugh cause the 5 dollars to make me use my card made me take out of the tip. Again, waitress was great but overall disappointed and won’t be back. I would not recommend if looking for a wood fired pizza.
