| - Traveled to Phoenix with an Elite soccer team, and selected this restaurant for it organic and gluten free options. We were seated in their outside dinner area, which fit our group comfortably (25 people). There were outdoor heaters and a very attractive outdoor fire, which kept us warm on a cool Phoenix winter evening. I agree with the other reviews, that the wait staff could use a little more service training.
Advice: Smile and check on your guests more frequently.
Food: The walnut, blue cheese salad was absolutely incredible. Sliced of strawberries, tear drop tomatoes, walnuts, tangy with balsamic vinegar. We ordered the Napolitan(super thin crust) Naples Margherita, olive oil, tomato, basil, and a healthy dose of garlic. Delicious pizza, and thin crust, so the pizza was too filling.
Organic and gluten free pasta? Sounded strange, but I tried the Shrimp scampi dish, which was made with organic quinoa and gluten free focacia. The texture was slightly different from any high end Italian restaurant, but the taste of the pasta, sauce, and shrimp was exceptional. I enjoyed every bit, and highly recommend this restaurant.
