My husband and I travel extensively and love food and wine. II Vinaio is a gem. Service is always friendly and prompt . Cindy is an outstanding hostess with great suggestions. They have one of the best burgers in Phoenix area and the garlic on the fries is fantastic. Howard recommends the green chili hatch humus. I who hate salads will recommend the southwest Cobb salad. Weekend brunch is also good. We travel from East Mesa for well seasoned, interesting food. We stop often on way from the airport for wine and lunch on upon returning to town. The wine and beer selections are good. They are priced for a good restaurant and a better buy than Scottsdale restaurants We can not understand poor reviews because I know the owners would have promptly worked to resolve any issues. It is priced fairly for the quantity and quality of food. Mesa needs good quality restaurants that serve something other than burgers, Mexican, and diner food. The wine and beer menu is extensive. On average we eat there 3 times per month. The ladies restroom is always very clean, but sewer gas does occasionally confront many Mesa locations. I have never found it offensive. Please remember small businesses need opportunities to respond to issues before they are trashed on social media.
