text: I was recommended here by a friend and was unimpressed considering the price and location The food was tasty but not the best Italian I have eaten The service was a disappointment the staff seemed frazzled and overwhelmed even though it was not super busy as they were able to seat a party of with no reservation right away nnThe prices were on the high side but it is Scottsdale so what can you expect The location was great and the parking was easy If it were busier which right now Scottsdale is pretty low in visitation this year then in most I can see parking being a problem but fortunately it was notnnThe ambiance was not comfortable at all Really noisy and I cannot remember if they played music or not as you can barely hear the waiter The staff was not as knowledgable or provided any wine recommendations either You would expect that from a fine dining establishment nnDefinitely not dining here again but it was worth a try
