| - Like all Oregano's restaurants (I think I've been to all of the ones in AZ), I think the food is A-OK. I have my favorites (pasta and golden wings) and my least favorite (all of their pizzas are pretty bad...wannabe fancy but quite can't make it). I don't particularly like sitting inside because it is loud. And I appreciate the clean-cut, very friendly staff. So I gave the 4th stars because:
1) My husband looooooves Oregano's portions. Yes, "typical American" portions. You could feed a whole third-world village with one of their plates. So the 4th star goes for my husband who doesn't Yelp. Yes, I know, how can I be with him?
2) PATIO. Living in a state with the most awesome Fall/Winter weather in the world, I often wonder why more restaurants don't have appealing patios. I come from the land of "terrazas", which means that all bars and restaurants put tables and chairs practically on the street to attract patrons. And they are always full. I love sitting outside, and with some well-placed misters you can extend the life of a patio for a couple more months. Yet in Chandler I don't find many, sadly. Patio sitting is also the perfect solution for those of us that have children, I don't know, it makes dining with them more relaxing. And Oregano's patios rock. This particular location has a huge one with a giant fireplace and firepits.
