Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Arcadia

We are native New Yorkers, blood, born, bred and breath! We've been in AZ since 2016 and never before our dinner at The Italiano have we found a place that feels like home! Other places have good food, service or ambiance, but never all three. When you walk into The Italiano, you feel like you're in any of the boroughs or LI, with the warm lighting and amazing smells, not to mention the beautiful decor of the blue and white that permeates all aspects of the restaurant. Once seated, our waiter Nate, was so warm and personable. You could tell he loves his job and his endorsement of the entire menu was not for any other reason than because he truly believes the food is phenomenal and as an east coast boy himself, he knows good food AND never to BS fellow east coasters. Needless to say, everything we ordered was more delicious than the previous dish! No one in AZ can do veal, except Chef Joey! No one can do Spumoni, except L&B and Chef Joey! No one can do home, except NY and The Italiano! Don't miss the chance to enjoy THE BEST dining and culinary experience in AZ. THE FOOD IS BY FAR THE BEST ITALIAN FOOD OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK. Ask for Nate - he's awesome. And Eddie, the manager, is a doll! One of the best nights we've had here in AZ!

This is one of our favorite restaurants, especially to celebrate a special occasion. We love the patio since the inside is a bit too loud for our liking but this time we were seated at a round table in a "private" dining room off the patio and it was perfect for our group of 6 celebrating a birthday! Service is always excellent and the food was off the charts delicious - the beef filet, short rib, salmon, muscles and bacon wraps were outstanding - and the focaccia with pesto dip was superb! Our server brought out a special birthday treat (warm butterscotch cream cake) and it was divine! Highly recommend Olive & Ivy and wish we had one in LA!

A classic ! Always amazing food , service, and ambiance. Enjoyed a cozy Thanksgiving tonight and it was a great time.

Best views you can find period. The steak and lobster were good but I've had better. Drinks were outstanding as well. Service is very good. Will defiantly be back

Really great experience at this restaurant. The server (can’t remember his name) from NY was outstanding and made the experience memorable. Loved the Baja tacos and the pumpkin bread pudding.
