This is a very very long over due review. Last Valentines day my husband and I did not make plans (he is an emergency doctor). When he was able to come home early I was so excited, however I knew that every place would be booked. We have been to La Torretta before, and Italian is my favorite. I called and spoke to the one of the owners and he was SO nice. I explained our situation, how it was impossible to make reservations in advance due to our situation and he was so kind on the phone.. told me not to worry, to come on in and he would make it work. We arrived at the restaurant, had a lovely drink at the bar and waited for our table to be ready. The food here is amazing and the service was impeccable. I could not have asked for a nicer Valentines day dinner with my husband. The restaurant is quaint and the decor is perfect. If you are considering a restaurant in Scottsdale for Italian food, skip the big chains and go to this family operated restaurant. They truly care about their customers and it shows!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!
