We learned about this restaurant from a recent review in the AZ Republic. We just got back from an early dinner and it was authentically Italian!!!! The bread was truly Italian, chewy crust and not sweet. The food was very tasty and delicious. The dessert sampler was amazing. Great place, not expensive and the chef Sal and his wife Dina (the owners) are delightful and very welcoming. Will definitely be going back soon. A great find in the east valley!
