| - Although there were a few minor problems, this place produces wonderful pizza. We started our meal with a wine and small bites special. The wine was pretty good but the server indicated that the small bites included meatballs but included fried raviolis instead. I think it is generally bad form to make such substitutions without informing the customer ahead of time. The fried mozzarella and zucchini were not very good. The breading was very oily, as if the oil temperature was too low, and not flavorful. The marinara was fresh tasting, but needed additional seasoning. The pizza was very good, simply done and cooked to perfection. We had the arugula, prosciutto, and Parmesan pizza. It was very tasty, but could have used a bit more salt. I also would consider putting the pizza back in the oven for just a few seconds to wilt the arugula. The crust is good, not the amazing sourdough that you might get at Bianco's, but much better than some other pizza places in Scottsdale. The interior of the restaurant is very comfortable and nicely decorated. The many bar seats and well-spaced tables make for a nice dining experience. Overall, this is a great place and worth a return visit. While not the best pizza in town, it is certainly close and with a few tweaks it could be close to the best.
