Everything was wonderful, the service food the restraints was cozy. The only improvement to give it 100 percent would be to change the music. When going into and authentic Italian restaurant I am gearing up to hear Italian music or old rat pack style music, not R&B or smooth jazz. They get that right it’ll be my favorite spot!

A fantastic restaurant with truly authentic pizza. They were very attentive to my husband's lactose intolerance and prepared a special Italian aglio e olio pasta for him, which was excellent. For dessert I had their homemade strawberry cheesecake and it was outstanding. Highly recommended.

Tucked away in Scottsdale, we stumbled upon the most perfect gem - Pino’s
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every single bite tasted like it came straight from Italy. The pasta was fresh, the sauces were rich and full of flavor, and the service was nothing short of exceptional.
If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience with charm, soul, and unforgettable food - Pino’s is amazing!

We were visitors to the area and did a Google search and found Pino. We were not disappointed. We were greeted at the door and promptly seated. Marco, the proprietor and grandson of the founder of the restaurants, explained their concept to us. I ordered one of the summer specials Tagliatelle Bolognese with meatballs (all fresh made including the pasta). My husband had the shaved prime rib which was served on fresh made bread with fresh French fries. We also enjoyed the Farmer’s Vegetable Plate which was par cooked in the wood fired oven - they were amazingly fresh with the use of olive oil and minimal seasonings. As we completed our dinner Marco offered us ice cream - it was the La Bomba! It was gelato at least 2 types of chocolate with a cherry in the center with of the globe dipped in crunchy chocolate coating.
(Of note, the tagliatelle bolognese was made exactly as I was taught at the Cooking School of Florence.)
The food and service was amazing. Everyone we mentioned Pino to for the remainder of our stay in Phoenix had been there as a regular, knew Marco and every person recommended the restaurant. If and when we are in the area, we will be back and we will tell anyone visiting the area to eat here!

11/2/25 My brother and I went here for dinner and ordered 2 pizzas. Mine had mushrooms olives tomatos basil and buffalo mozzerella, the pizza was good there just seemed to be a bit too much crust as seen in the photo. My brother had a bacon pepperoni and sausage cheese pizza, he enjoyed it. We split a tiramisu and chocolate mousse for dessert, both were really light, sweet, and enjoyable. Overall the food was good here. I did notice throughout the meal that they did try to get you to buy more be it salad, bread, or coffee. They have a ton of wine variety here so if that is your thing this place has it.

Without coupons, we would have missed the opportunity to discover the nearby Pino restaurant...we hadn't been to the west side of the Scottsdale 101 shopping area. Delicious salad (toasty zucchini slices made it wonderful) and great pizza. A hidden gem for a craving for pizza and Italian.

Open 17 years? How have i never come across this place before now. I had a great experience. Very nice place. Great music and i love the open kitchen. I was very glad to see a wood fired pizza oven. I was searching for a new place to try some pizza (I’m running out of places to try) and i wasn’t disappointed here. I was greeted by a older gentleman and felt right at home. Service was spot on. I can’t remember my server’s name but he was so professional and knowledgeable about pizza and wine and food I thought he was the owner at first. I always try a margarita when trying a new place. Crust was flavorful and crispy with a nice chew to it. Not burnt on the bottom which i was glad to see. Sauce was a bit on the sweet side but very good and tasted very fresh and light. Not too heavy on the seasonings. The only downside was the sliced tomatoes, which don’t belong on a true Neapolitan style margarita. But it worked. Also i needed a side of fresh basil to add to the pizza. The menu looks amazing and i can’t wait to go back and try more. The patio looks very comfortable so when the weather cools off i think I’m going to be a regular at this place. 💯 recommended!!!!
Amazing bread and crust. Great pizzas and really good service! Thank you for a delicious meal!

We couldn’t leave PINO without trying their desserts, and they were just as incredible as the entrées!
Dessert highlights:
Crème Brûlée – Perfectly caramelized on top with a smooth, creamy custard underneath.
Tiramisu – Light, rich, and full of authentic flavor.
Gelato (Cookies & Cream + Mint Chip) – Both were amazing, creamy, and refreshing, the perfect sweet finish to the meal.
Bedouin Mint Tea - prefectly brewed and nice and hot. This tea is wonderfully cozy and smooth.
Every bite was indulgent and unforgettable. PINO’s desserts aren’t just an afterthought — they’re a must-try experience that rounds out an already perfect evening.

We had such a wonderful dining experience at PINO in Scottsdale! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service was attentive and professional. Dining here makes you feel like you’re part of an Italian family gathering — cozy, inviting, and full of heart.
Food highlights:
Vegetable Lasagna – Truly one of the best I’ve ever had. The layers were soft and perfectly balanced, the sauce was incredibly flavorful, and serving it in its own skillet made it extra special.
Fettuccine Alfredo – Creamy, silky, and rich without being heavy. A classic done perfectly.
Spaghetti Aglio e Olio – Simple yet outstanding. The garlic flavor was bold but balanced, creating an authentic, unforgettable dish.
Everything was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and beautifully presented. Between the amazing food, cozy ambiance, and the feeling of being welcomed like family, PINO is easily a 5-star gem we’ll be coming back to often!
