Restaurants near Salt River Tubing

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!

Dinner at Ember is always an excellent choice for a special night out. The service is prompt, attentive & cordial. The servers are knowledgeable, forthright, & energetic, especially Jean (Frenchie)!

Really impressed. We first came for breakfast and were pleasantly surprised. We had breakfast burrito, eggs benny, and omelet. All great. Quick service and friendly staff. Then we came back for dinner. I saw some recent mixed reviews so was cautiously optimistic …. Impressed. First they were quick with everything, water, drinks and bread. We ordered an app, salad and dinner and it all came appropriately and efficiently. Multiple staff members deliver the food so nobody has to wait. It was hot, delicious and perfect portions. We had the burger, salmon and short ribs. Then we splurged and enjoyed banana cheesecake and bread pudding. Yummo! I’m certain we will go again before we leave.

One of our very favorites restaurants for many years . Excellent food. Nice variety. Great service. Very reasonable.

The restaurant is in a beautiful location. The sunset was beautiful. The Thanksgiving dinner was superb. I wish we could go more often..but we live In Chicago... burrr
