This was a fantastic experience. The food was incredible - I have never experienced something at this level. The staff was amazing and the Chef came out to meet us for one of the courses. It was great observing how the Chef and staff interacted which other very calm, organized and passion to deliver excellence with everything they did. Very Happy - thank you for making a birthday celebration perfect and memorable.

About the restaurant
Enjoy a taste of original wood fire pizza from Italy right here in Scottsdale curated by our very own Pizziaolo, Chef Chris . All dough and ingredients prepared fresh daily to excite your taste buds from one of the most popular pizzerias in Phoenix and Scottsdale since 2012. Try our house signature pizza, our Valentina, specially blended red sauce, perfectly cupped pepperoni, Calabrian chile, fresh mozzarella and finished with our locally source hoeny.
Truly and experience you will tell everyone about.

Voted 1, 2 and 3 over the last 6 years as the best pizzeria in Arizona. Voted number 1 on the Wizard of Za's top 100 list 5 out of last 6 years. Voted People Choice top 3 in Phoenix twice in four years.

This little spot is a spot out of old Italy. Inside is small, yet robust with character and highlighted with our open kitchen atmosphere.

About the restaurant
Every ingredient that goes into our menu must be of the highest quality. Our prime-grade beef is part of what makes us the steakhouse Scottsdale residents and visitors are talking about. We offer several different sizes of cuts, and our chef has crafted numerous toppings to enhance your experience. Our side dishes perfectly complement our entree selection, and many guests often rave about our Alaskan king crab mac and cheese and our corn créme bruleé. We also serve a selection of fresh seafood from our raw bar, such as freshly shucked oysters, Maine lobster tail and iced Alaskan king crab. All of our steaks are served a la carte, letting each guest personalize their plate. Our full bar offers an extensive wine selection.
