two words: FRICKIN YUM!
Whenever the boyfriend and I drive down Scottsdale Road the boyfriend ALWAYS has to mention that he wants to try out Defalco's...so, last night I did my homework and yelped Defalco's before giving it a go. I decided the reviews were pretty damn awesome and that I would have to go by for lunch.
Ok, this place...so amazing. It's seriously like Italy decided to give birth to a small little grocery store in the middle of a pretty lame plaza to grace Arizona with its presence. It's got racks and racks of Italian wines, balsamic vinegars, Italian breads and sweets. They've also got some frozen pasta to cook up in your own home. Anyway, let's get to the good stuff. As many have mentioned it does get packed during lunch so expect a wait.
The boyfriend got a full chicken parmigina sandwich. It was pretty good and a HUGE serving. He got it on the soft roll and they do not skimp out on the chicken. The roll was filled with perfectly breaded chicken breast, topped with a simple, yet flavorful marinara sauce and of course...so cheese. YUM. Like I said it was pretty big and filling and it was $7.50.
I took fellow Yelpers suggestions and got a half order of the beef cheese steak with mushrooms, onions, and peppers. Heaven in the mouth for $5. Enough said.
One star off for the wait but it was worth it!
