    When the food came out it was Luke warm at best, everyone’s food was barely mediocre. Great server! Getting drinks from the bar was like pulling teeth and we were sitting in a bar booth. Very disappointed for the money. We’ve been to Italiano before and loved it!

    Thank you to the phenomenal staff who made my Mother’s birthday such a great occasion! You helped me adjust our dinner reservation upon arrival, and helped to secure a reservation downstairs for an after dinner drink. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience at both locations!

    I have made several visits to the Scottsdale location and it never fails to impress. David was on the money with service and recommendations. The beef shank was fall off the bone and enough food for 3. Thanks to David and GM Jaqueline.

    Service was outstanding. Focaccia was very good as was the meatballs. My wife had the Wagyu bolognese which she liked a great deal. I had the filet, ordered it medium rare with a side of bernaise. The filet temp was medium, the server brought me another and asked me to cut into the middle. It was medium rare, however as I cut bites away from the center, the meat was medium to medium well. I didn’t say anything and ate half of it. The bernaise was gelatinous, not creamy, and I couldn’t detect any tarragon reduction….disappointing.

    An absolutely exceptional experience at Americano! My son and his best friend picked Americano to celebrate their last day of 1st grade. Everything far exceeded expectations. The staff were wonderful and treated both the boys and moms like royalty, all while being friendly and playful. Food and drink were top tier and we all hugely appreciated the special cookies to celebrate!! Americano team, you absolutely outdid yourselves!!! Thank you so much!

    The service was spectacular, food was delicious, and ambiance was romantic but not too dark. Would definitely go back! Prices are high, but you get what you pay for.

    We live five hours away and are already planning when we can return. This was probably our best dining out experience anywhere, ever! The food was fantastic: bone-in veal parmigina, homemade tagliatelle with wagyu beef. Somehow, the service was even better! When we made the reservation, we mentioned that we had a celebration. When seated, we were immediately asked what we were celebrating-a wedding anniversary-and all four of us were offered champagne (complimentary). At the end of the meal, a beautiful dessert was brought out with an anniversay note to the couple. On top of all this, the decor is strikingly beautiful. Highest possible recommendation.
