In Phoenix for a Rock N Roll Half Marathon and we picked this restaurant based on reviews and menu. We always eat pasta the night before a run! The service was phenomenal, the food was amazing, the portions were perfect and the manager stopped at our table to check on us and was very personable!Portions are amazing at this place. The food tastes great, fresh and delicious. Options for vegetarians available. Can be used for business meetings too! If we lived here, we'd definitely go back!

I really wanted to give this restaurant 4 stars, however it's just not there; they need more professional management (you'll experience this when you go). Also, the food was overcooked (vegetables were soggy), ...so that's not good. However, 3 stars is good and I'm 50/50 in returning.

The service is friendly, the food is good although they use an over bearing spice on everything that ended up not setting well with most of the party. The fact you have to listen to a 1 minute and 20 second recording before you get the option to try and get a person. We will be back because of location and being able to have the backroom to ourselves. I wouldn't go there outside of the event though. Its not that great to be worth the drive. But if you live close it's decent.

Truly one of my FAVORITE restaurants in the entire area! Great food, super service, wonderful attention to detail, and a superb family-friendly setting! Inside and outdoor seating, a Tempe family-owned establishment! ♡

The atmosphere here is great, it was very quiet on a Sunday which was surprising. Our waiter was very attentive and polite. The food tasted great and the portions were adequate. I will definitely return and I highly recommend you check out the quartiere.

Enjoyed the food, ambiance is casual and inviting. Service could have been better. Understaffed for a Friday night, we had to wait several minutes for our drinks. Surprised the bartender let them sit and did not take the initiative to bring them to the table.

Amazing food! I'm not usually a big fan of Italian food but this was next level! The braised shorr rib ravioli was so good!

We had a wonderful experience on Friday evening. I had been here year's before when it was a different Italian restaurant under a different name. I decided to take my girlfriend there. Bri our server was great. It was not extremely busy and so she even allowed us to pick a nice booth that we wanted in a section that had no one in it. The free opening bread was incredible. It was a sourdough french combo or something. With a light garlic oil lightly drizzled on top. We asked f

It was a sourdough french combo or something. With a light garlic oil lightly drizzled on top. We asked for a second loaf because it was very delicious. Then we split the Mediterranean pizza with the feta and kalamata olives. So fresh, so light yet so filling. The crust was perfect. The service was perfect too. Bri kept coming at just the perfect time to check on us. They left the cork bottle of water at the table, which was very Italian. My gf has been there and she said that's exactly how they do it in Sicily. Needless to say, we will be back. We have already discussed making this "our" place as our go-to romantic highest-quality food and service restaurant.

Yum! First time visiting this place last night, loved the vibe, lighting, music and food! It is really cute inside - The complimentary bread alone I could eat that all day! It was soft, warm, doughy and just delish! I ordered their chicken Alfredo which has a poblano sauce and their enchilada corn chowder, my fiancé got the the chicken parm with a salad, all the food tasted amazing! My favorite was the Alfredo sauce with roasted poblano it was not spicy and made for a different Alfredo experience. We also got some dessert to go - cannoli and tiramisu. Would recommend this place for groups, date night. We will definitely be coming back :)
The service was good. The atmosphere was peaceful which allowed for conversation with our friends and the food was quite good. All around good experience

Stopped by for dinner, it wasn't busy or slow. Ordered appetizers and drinks, at 90 minutes in, dinner still wasn't served, so we asked to get the food to go. We still had to wait for them to box it up, i signed for the bill before we got the food. Way too long for a casual restaurant

Tried for the first time this evening. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our server was able to answer our questions about meal prep, which I especially appreciate as I have some food allergies. Salad was nice and fresh and the entrees a decent portion and tasty. We will be back.
