So I should start out by saying - I have been to Oregano's countless times. It's ALWAYS a great experience, and definitely one of my go-to places. I should also mention that if you're looking for light / healthy options, you might as well not read my review. What we ordered was in no way light or healthy... But DANG was it good!
Our server was extremely friendly and on top of it. I never have a problem with poor service here though (one of the many reasons I love it). My friend and I started out with the boom dip. BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP EVER. I promise... Get this. For our entrees, we really wanted to try something new since we have had pretty much everything on the menu. We noticed a gentleman at the table next to us had ordered a delicious looking pasta dish, but we couldn't identify what it was on the menu. We asked our server what he had ordered and his answer completely changed the game forever... Chicken Parmesan but he had subbed the marinara on it for Alfredo sauce. OK WHAT... THAT'S GENIUS. We said "why the heck not" and went with the mystery man's creative creation. It was just as amazing as it looked and my friend and I both agreed that we found our newest guilty pleasure (second to their pazookies).
So like I said, not somewhere to come if you're looking for healthier options. But I will never regret a good Oregano's binge. The prices, the portions, the staff, it really can't be beat. AZ is so lucky to have a joint like this in nearly every neighborhood in the valley!
Warning: Wait times may be long on Fridays and Saturdays. Sometimes they try to compensate for this with Pizza appetizers while you're waiting!
