Visited this tucked away gem on a business trip to Scottsdale. Charming dining room decor and a patio dining area to enjoy a meal al fresco are what greets you along with a friendly staff.
To maximize our visit we ordered 4 entrees to share. The burrata is surprisingly authentic -- ooey gooey texture just like in Naples and framed by the sweetness of grapes (maybe go a bit lighter on the grapes ... a little goes a long way) and the peppery edge of arugula. The pepperonata with egg over potatoes had a nice touch of heat just after a big burst of flavor. The burger was a bit unwieldy -- more like a patty melt on grilled bread rather than a burger "proper" -- but the patty was flavorful and cooked to a perfect medium. The grilled cheese with bacon and mushrooms was a table favorite -- earthy & smokey flavors made this childhood favorite a bona fide "grown up" meal.
This small taste piqued my interest for where dinner menu adventures might take me. Unfortunately that will have to wait for another visit -- hopefully that will be soon!
