Since 1987, New York Bagels ‘N Bialys in Scottsdale has been serving some of the Valley’s best real-deal New York bagels. How? First, they boil the dough before baking, which gives it a sturdy crust and doughy middle. Ah, perfection. The sandwiches are huge and delicious, and there’s even a bar here, so you can […]
For a taste of the old neighborhood, but with better ambiance and nicer service, Tutto Bene is the best. All the favorites are here: homemade soups, pizzas, fresh pastas (lasagna is out of this world!), and gorgeous tiramisu.

There’s nothing fancy about Nick’s. But who needs fancy when you can get superb homemade pastas and outstanding pizzas at wallet-friendly prices? Both the fettuccine with sausage and gnocchi smothered with Gorgonzola are remarkable. So are the pizzas, with their wonderfully thin, chewy crusts and vigorous toppings. The white-chocolate tartufo is a sweet way to […]
Who doesn’t love pizza and beer? The classic combination is the starting point and calling card for Night Owl in south Scottsdale. This is the sort of spot you wish would open in your neighborhood.

Way-cheap, very satisfying Vietnamese eats, in a pleasant, casual environment that features red umbrellas hanging upside down from the ceiling and blue walls hung with black-and-white photos taken by the owner’s father. The specialty here is pho, a hearty soup of rice noodles and broth, traditionally using beef, but these days it also incorporates seafood […]
We started coming here for the strawberry and goat cheese salad, and before you could say “Modern Italian Cuisine!” we were headed straight into a plateful of Margherita pizza (crushed tomato, fresh mozzarella and chopped basil). From there it was only minutes before we were calling for shrimp fettuccine, served with broccolini and a spicy […]

For more than a decade the fine folks at NYPD Pizza have been putting their ovens to good use, feeding the Valley’s masses. With a large menu of pizzas, calzones, sandwiches, pasta and wings, you’d be hard pressed not to find a selection to fit your Italian-style cravings. NYPD offers great lunch deals and a […]
Run by Long Island’s Ziegler brothers, this place proves that your name doesn’t have to end in a vowel to run a first-class pizzeria. Excellent thin-crust pizza (try the NYPD Blue, heaped with ricotta, eggplant and roasted peppers) and one of the town’s best calzones. If you can handle dessert after a few oversized slices, […]

For those needing a break from the slots or roulette, this glorified kiosk on the floor of the Talking Stick casino churns out some surprisingly tasty seafood dishes. Grab one of the 19 available seats and watch the cooks prepare your seafood Creole, Louisiana gumbo, and Cajun-style boils in just minutes as you sip on […]
We haven’t broken out the measuring tape, so we’ll have to take Octane Raceway’s word that it’s the largest indoor kart-racing facility in the United States. It certainly looks large. Even the check-in area is big. Two race tracks can hold 50 drivers at a time. We have to be patient because we know we’ll […]
