Splendid neighborhood Eye-tie joint, with a 1940s theme, kickass spaghetti and meatballs, and cannoli so sweet, filling, and inexpensive that you’ll consider moving to Fountain Hills so you can have them regularly. The pizza is Brooklyn-worthy, and a half-dozen of those garlic knots, and a glass of vino, and Chef Tony may have to pry […]

This long-running Tempe favorite has been housed in several locations in the Mill Avenue area, but folks always seem to find it – the staff has been there forever, and is nicer than your own family. Imagine Cheers, only Sonoran restaurant style. And, come to think of it, even friendlier.

Cool sushi bar/restaurant serving Japanese and Korean food. The sushi, especially the nigiri sushi, is of pretty high quality, and Takamatsu also offers Korean table barbecue.
