For some reason the app did not offer that option this time so we had to phone the restaurant.

New to the area and headed out to find great Italian food. And I found it. Boy did I find it…read more There are a few Vito's in the Phoenix area, and all had great reviews and photos that made my mouth water. Ultimately I chose the Mesa store because it was the original and I wanted to see Mesa. We started with a basic garlic cheese bread appetizer and it was great. The calamari was tempting but we'll save that for next time. Wife ordered fettuccine alfredo with shrimp and I ordered the usual Chicken Parmesan which came with a side of pasta. It was actually a harder choice than usual because I walked thru the restaurant before I ordered and so many dishes looked good, as did the pizza. But I went with the usual. Let's start with the wife, which truly speaks to the five stars because she frankly doesn't love Italian food. She eats it when I beg. And she loved it. She actually proactively mentioned she wanted to go back. That's like 7 stars right there it's so abnormal. I agree with her. The chicken parm was fantastic. Amazing. To top it off, our server was great and when I mentioned we were new to the area and it was our first trip she was so nice telling us the history of the original and the other stores, and the manager later stopped by to continue that conversation as the server told her we were new. I mentioned that I live closer to the Scottsdale store, and she said it's the same food and I'll like it just as much. I'll have a hard time deciding which shop to return to - it might be worth the drive to the original just for the ambiance, but I'll give the other a try soon because it was just that good! 5 stars. Or 7 if you ask my wife.

The menu was large, with tons of classic Italian options. Pastas, entrees, seafood - the classics. I tried the Chicken Parm sandwich. It's small! Requested peppers on top and they were barely cooked. I tried others dishes amongst our party and everything was just okay IMO. Limited drink menu and no draft beers available either. It's not a large space, yet the service was very slow. We had to flag our server multiple times. Additionally, the kitchen took a very long time. Maybe it was just an off night, but a lot of waiting. I really enjoyed the ambiance inside. A very homey feel to the whole place. Reminded me of restaurants growing up. I would give it another shot and try other dishes off the menu. But overall, didn't meet my expectations.

We sat at the bar and enjoyed a nice bottle of Chianti and had the Bread board for starters, then enjoyed the Drunken Mussels, and Cheese ravioli with Vodka sauce!

He polished all the wine glasses out of the dishwasher and kept the back bar sparkling!! He's an asset to Sam and Luca!! My friends and I will be returning for Wine Wednesday with 25% off bottles!

My absolute favorite is their fresh Antipasto Salad and warm Ciabatta bread. I highly recommend ordering a side of their scampi butter for the bread. Yum! This visit, I had the Baked RigaTony, and my daughter ordered the Deep Dish Lasagna with marinara sauce. Both dishes were excellent--hot, flavorful, and generously portioned. They also have great weekday lunch specials. The Chicken Cutlet Picatta is another favorite of mine. Great food, friendly service, and a restaurant that's been a longtime favorite of mine.

The drinks are limited if you don't like sweet drinks so I paid full price for a cocktail off the list. When the bill came the price of the cocktail in the receipt was different than was was in the menu on the table. The waitress did change it but a customer shouldn't have to tell you the price is incorrect. The service was good. She checked on us frequently. There was nothing special about the restaurant so I wouldn't go here for date night but I did see other couples there for date night. It's a decent family restaurant.

After enjoying a drink we settled on the Italian fries, which are addictive they come parm, truffle, parsley and a special aioli served hot it's just incredibly good. Each ordered our own pizza, my wife the pepperoni and I the Margarita done Napoletana style. They were amazing, dough was soft, easy chew, sauces were incredible. We both agreed this place has moved to near the top of pizza places in NE Mesa. What is incredible is no one was there, we had the whole place to ourselves, which we couldn't believe no one was there for a happy hour on a Friday. We will be back soon, you should try it, well worth it.

With such delicious food and wonderfully friendly owner, I was surprised more people weren't beating down the doors to eat at this restaurant! But it does have a dated "old school steakhouse" vibe inside, which isn't exactly the ambiance preferred by our younger generations. We thought it was great, though. Give Il Vinaio a chance!
