    We stumbled into this restaurant while in the area enjoying massages. We were here for lunch & their lunch menu & drink specials were not to be beat! My husband and I shared a piece of their large slice pizza, & shrimp scampi. I had an arugula salad and he had a cup of their minestrone soup. The soup was delish & tasted like it was made with love! The broth was so flavorful! Pizza was also delicious! We had a side of their homemade ranch and that was also very good! My glass of sangria tasted like it needed a bit more time in the fruits, so not the most flavorful sangria I've had. Our waiter, a young man, was wonderful and attentive. Restaurant has a full bar area and seating, along with plenty of indoor B and even outdoor seating. Italian music is playing in the speakers and on Fridays and Saturdays, they even have live music! We will definitely return!

    Pizza and so much more. We came for lunch and ordered pizza and dang it was delicious. Our server Tony was excellent and provided us with some of their best dishes. We sat outside while listening to some Sinatra. Indoor dining looked great as well. Will definitely return

    Garlic knots brought to table when we got here!

    Super nice staff, delicious food. Tender calamari in light batter. Great sauce on ravioli and pizza. Pizza crust had a crunch on the very bottom that I loved and though it looked thick, it wasn't, which I loved. The crunch was not burn but baked just right. Coming back! Highly recommend! Oh... Clam chowder had robust flavor! Loved it.

    Spumoni !!!

    Mama Mia...this place has Fantastic Italian food!! It has that old school vibe that really sets the mood. Our Server April was amazing. We had the cheese Ravioli, Lasagna, pizza, and Shrimp parmigiana. And for dessert we had Spumoni and cheese cake. All were delicious and we would highly recommend.

    Ok first off SERVICE here was amazing. Our waiter was so attentive and helpful and gave some great recommendations. The food is absolutely delicious and we could not get enough of it. The pizza was so good!!!! The spicy marinara sauce with the calamari was so goods the restrooms were very clean and so was the dinning area. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the calm chowder was so full of flavor. Absolutely one of the best places we have gone to. Highly recommend if you live in the area or are visiting Tucson, you need to come here

    A cool Italian restaurant in Marana with a calm and quiet atmosphere. The food was solid and the service was great. I ordered the garlic knots, clam chowder, and Fettuccini Alfredo, all were good! I'd definitely come back, especially to try their pizza.

    Chicken Piccata
    Barb G.

    Recently in Tucson so made this a dinner stop. Friend had made a reservation and when we arrived we were told that the table she was giving us was just finishing up and minded if we wait for a minutes. Well, that turned out to be about 15 minutes and it wasn't until we went back up to jog her memory that we were still waiting, she sat us. The food here is incredible and tonight I tried the Chicken Piccata with a small Caesar Salad. Their dressing for the salad is so creamy and thick and full of that great Caesar taste. The lettuce was crunchy and fresh. The Piccata was so good and ended up squeezing some more lemon over the dish. It's more than enough to feed two people; they give you two, thin breasts along with a big portion of pasta. Friend ordered some of their garlic knots, which come with marinara sauce. These were really good, crunchy outside and fluffy inside and the sauce is so good and tangy. Love this place so much and can't wait to get back down to Tucson for a meal here!

    We went early, about 4pm. Place was quiet but it was happy hour. The place is clean and staff were friendly. My wife had a crostini special with Brie they have for February and I had the chicken parm. We both had drinks before and they were good. My meal came with soup and I had minestrone and it was packed with all kinds of veggies, beans, and pasta. The knots were tasty as well. Both of our meals were excellent but I've not had chicken parm anywhere else to compare, but it was good tasting. I would recommend this place for sure.

    Spinach and Cheese Calzone
    Leah G.

    We came in for lunch and were seated promptly. Our waiter was attentive and helpful, and the ambiance was nice but not too upscale for a casual lunch. I got the small plate of eggplant Parmesan with linguini and my hubby got a calzone. Everything was delicious and fresh! The eggplant was crisp and well seasoned. We will be back!

    Always delicious! Our servers were GREAT! The food was EXCELLENT! The live music was SPECTACULAR!!!! This time we sat in a booth which was super fun! We enjoyed so much wonderful food! I would say it is very reasonably priced for a mom and pop restaurant with live music! I highly recommend! Call ahead though because sometimes there can be a wait!

One thing that was a bummer was that they wouldn't turn on sports when we asked. They said that the owner doesn't allow sports to be played? The World Cup was on so I feel like an exception could've been made but oh well. Now I know not to come here to watch sports.

It's a fun and also elegant atmosphere with the zebra theme clearly exemplified across the space. I would have to say this is one of the coziest bars I've been to, the furniture and seating is really supportive of a long-term visit. There are other levels, lower and an upper level besides the main space, but be aware that if there are parties, they can typically take up different areas. Our bartender, Sarah was fantastic! The way that she handled all of the guests and the busy field was incredible, so calm and collected, and furthermore making some really incredible drinks. Heads up that the online drink menu is not the current drink menu, I couldn't remember all the names of our drinks and put those in the photo captions, so when I checked on the website, the menu was showing something different other than what I saw at the bar. Out of several places I've been to, I'd say the mixture of flavors and details in the drinks are quite unique. I'll be back for more one day

Same charms, different bartender, and new summer (May) craft cocktails that have become quite substantial (see pic of double-sided menu).

We are both on a mezcal discovery kick and ordered the Black Cathedral ($16) and the Girl Dinner ($16). Each was as described (pic) and delicious. We had dinner plans and needed to leave at 5:15 - just as things were picking up. We'll definitely be back sooner.

We started with the ABG salad that surprised me because I'm usually not a big fan of Gorgonzola, but the combination of green apple, pecan brittle, and cheese worked really well together and made for a great balance of flavors. For the pizza, we ordered the mushroom pizza and added pepperoni. The sauce was excellent I believe was some sort of a garlic/oil white sauce the mushroom portion was generous which I absolutely love, and the crust was exactly what I look for crunchy on the outside while still soft and slightly sweet inside. My only minor complaint with the toppings is that the $4 pepperoni add on felt a bit light, we only had a 2 or 3 slices per piece. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that our pizza was just slightly overcooked. The bottom was charred all the way around; wasn't burnt to the point of sending it back, but definitely left in the oven a minute or two longer than it needed to be. It wasn't busy when we visited, and it seemed like the employee rotating pizzas was a little more focused on chatting with FOH coworkers than keeping an eye on the oven. I've worked in pizza restaurants for nearly a decade, so I may be a bit more particular than most customers. Realistically, if our pizza had come out even a minute earlier, it would have been a 10/10 meal. That said, I enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back. The quality is there, and I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu in the future.

Had to park illegally in front of the Credit Union to pick up my pizza. We ordered online (you actually have no choice if you want to pick it up) where you're not able to customize/do half, so it was cheese with added meatball (a +$5 up charge) - total bill with tax, 29.71 By the time I got the pizza to bring home, (wait in the restaurant for pick up depended on a waiter and there were three of us - in between which he was serving tables their drinks) the bottom of the box was soggy and the pizza was cold. Even before we heated in a hot oven, it was overdone, really salty and no meatballs- see the photo - instead there was a tiny bit (less than 2 oz) of hot sausage on an overdone pizza. Not anything close to decent or what we ordered. Don't kid yourself, this is not NY pizza by a long shot. The search continues.
