After a day of hiking we were happy to have pizza delivered to our hotel. It arrived on time and just as we ordered it. You can have thin or traditional crust, a choice of cheeses, sauces, and toppings. They even delivered utensils and paper plates for our convenience.

Bianchi's Italian

Reviewed By TimDore

Typically we order pizza to be delivered from Bianchi’s and they never disappoint. However I wanted to dine in and was looking for something other than pizza. My favorite dish when I’m having Italian is Veal Parmesan. In the past where I lived in Oregon and California it was hard to find Veal due to the cost I suspect. So I was excited to see it on the menu. It is served with Pasta with a nice red sauce and the Veal was lightly breaded and cooked perfectly. My wife had Spaghetti and Meatballs and really enjoyed it. There was enough left over of both meals to have for dinner too. We arrived at about 2 pm so after the lunch rush and nice and quiet with great service. I’m glad we live just a couple miles away because this will be my go to place for Italian food. Highly recommend!

This palce prepares the pizza but you cook it in the oven at home.Ordered two pizzas,all meat and a special vegan. Pick up was on time with pizzas wrapped in plastic wrap and instructions on how to cook at home.My wife liked the vegan but ,after following the instructions, mine came out too crisp on bottom and edges. Price was OK but not sure I would order there again. Think pizza cooked in special pizza oven at restaurants are better.

Marco's Pizza

Reviewed By Turpy23

We ordered delivery since we were staying at a resort, & they offer a 10% discount for occupants of this time share. We ordered the combo, which included meat & veggies. It was very good. The sausage was especially tasty. The person who took our order let us know about the special price even though we had no way of knowing about it. Delivery was very quick.

Bottega Michelangelo

Reviewed By Dave B

We have been to Michelangelo's many times in the past. It was remodeled last year with a newer format and renamed to Bottega Michelangelo. The newer format suites them well. We went to Happy Hour there and enjoyed ourselves immensely. The menu offers small bites and drinks at reasonable prices. All the food is great and very tasty. Get there early for Happy Hour as the place fills quickly.

Charred Pie

Neapolitan inspired wood fired pizza and scratch kitchen.

Reviewed By Rita P

This restaurant spot right next to the Oro Valley cinema has had at least 4 restaurants open and fail; this one will succeed. Why? because the menu is simple, the food is excellent, the service is efficient, enthusiastic and pleasant and the location is a draw for folks coming or going to the movies, as well as others shopping in nearby stores. The pizza crust is charred to just the right degree, the toppings are full and not skimpy, the salads are big enough to share. We were too full to have dessert but saw a couple carried by and they too look big enough, and rich enough to share. Everything was fresh and tasted home-made.

This location has always been one of our favorites....spent over $600 here over the last couple months.....but this last visit yesterday (10/5) will probably be our last. We have NEVER HAD SUCH AN INSULTING WAITRESS! Talk about rude....if you look up rude in the dictionary, her picture will be there!My son, his wife and their 2 yr old son (who by the way LOVES the bread sticks). There were 4 adults and one toddler. Only one salad and FOUR bread sticks were delivered to our table..... Really?? My son ordered the unlimited soup, salad and breadsticks. I simply asked our waitress for more breadsticks, when she pointed at the two breadsticks still in the basket and SAID, "you know you STILL have two in the basket!". OMG.....Not that it was any of her business, but we were waiting for our meals and with only TWO breadsticks and 4 adults.....I ordered some extra marinara, it two reminders to get it. By that time I was almost half done with my meal.My son asked for a third salad.....she said, you know that's will be your third salad! Any way enough is enough too many other restaurant choices in Oro Valley...

Carrabba's Italian Grill

Reviewed By Wild_Radek

So the restaurant is less than 1/2 full yet 5 tables that arrived after us were served first. And finally, how long does it take to prepare a ceasar salad? Apparently it’s one hour and 15 minutes. That part gives this establishment a zero. Hopefully it was just an off day.Nevertheless, the food was well prepared and delicious. Decor is a bit dated but OK.Needless to say, we won’t be back.

I hadn't been here in quite a while and was anxious have a nice lunch.While the food was good, there just wasn't much of it, and it's likely that elementary school kids get more to eat for lunch at their school cafeteria. Considering how much they're charging for it, odds are their business will plummet if they continue with the scrimpy portions.
