Picazzo's Healthy Italian Kitchen

Overall, food was pretty good. Lost stars for lack of kids food and not great service. Almost entire menu is GF, dedicated pizza oven (another oven for gluten pizzas), only serves GF pasta. One of my celiac kiddos didn’t eat anything as the first meal wasn’t great and then by the time they brought out the replacement (after a reminder), she wasn’t hungry anymore and we were all done. Probably would do take out for the pizzas or adults only.

99% of the menu is gluten free for celiacs! Absolutely amazing variety. Our server was not very friendly and gave minimal GF info. The food was pretty good, but a little overpriced. Overall a good, not outstanding, experience.

Good food. All GF (pasta, apps, salads, pizza crusts) except pizza crusts that contain gluten by request. Dedicated GF pizza oven. When I called to ask about prep, they were a little confused given everything is gluten free (with one exception). We ate there multiple times and did not get sick.

What a surprise to find a gluten-free restaurant that isn’t your typical small establishment with questionable food results. I had the gluten free Chicken Parmesan with pasta and green beans. My husband had a (non-GF) pizza. In this place, all the food is GF except for the non-GF pizza crust which is baked in a separate pizza oven.

Stopped in for lunch and glad we did. They have a lunch special w a slice of pizza and soup or salad. Opted for the tomato soup. The slice was huge as was the bowl of soup. We could have shared one lunch special.

Everything was excellent. And, everything is gf. They do offer non-gf pizza they cook in a separate oven, but idk why they bother. Their GF pizza is some of the best I've had.

Enjoyed nibbles of baked chicken wings and the spinach artichoke dip. Brought take out to nephew of chicken Parmesan and he said if we didn’t tell him it was gf, he wouldn’t have known. It was that good! Will be back our next visit!

I went to Picazzos two times while on vacation. The food was pretty good. The Pizza was okay while the pasta was AMAZING. They have plenty of options and have a high amount of knowledge about celiac which was great for me. The workers were friendly and seemed like they enjoyed their job.

While the cheese bread and broccolini were fantastic, the GF pizza left something to be desired. The dough wasn’t risen and quite flavorless. Quite a disappointment after such flavorful garlic bread. My recommendation? Give the cauliflower crust a try, because the regular GF crust is 👎🏼

Everything was amazing! We had cheese bread and the artichoke dip. Best artichoke dip I've ever had. I had Caesar salad and chicken parm. Caesar dressing was sooooo good. Chicken parm was enough for 3 meals. My husband got gf pizza. It was very good. He's leery of gf food but loved everything! Service was great. Even the t-shirts the servers wear were about being gf!

My husband enjoyed the baked vegan chicken penne. Very knowledgeable staff, great service and wonderful food. They have several locations and we have enjoyed 4 of them thus far and we will be back when visiting Phoenix!

I have been going here for years with my GF family and the food is always great. It is our favorite restaurant in town. The only thing that has gluten there is the “original crust”. They need to change the name of it though, to avoid confusion.

We visit Scottsdale at least once a year and we always eat at Picazzo’s at least once, usually twice. The food is delicious and I’ve never had a bad reaction. My favorites are the lasagna and the pesto ravioli, items I can’t usually get anywhere else. Although they do offer regular pizza, everything else on the menu is gluten-free. Picazzo’s is my favorite Scottsdale restaurant.

we have been customers here for 11 years now, and our son with celiac has been fine, until last year when he became extremely ill from gluten--twice. maybe there has been a change in management because there is an obvious problem with prep in the kitchen. we always emphasize the fact that our son has celiac when placing orders and ask that the food be prepared safely and to wear fresh gloves. very disappointing as this was our favorite restaurant

The food here does not disappoint. I had the Mac and cheese and it was heaven. This visit we had sub par service as they only had one server for the whole place. But with a little patience and understanding we had a delicious safe meal.

All gf, easy to do gf, too. This is my second Pizarro's visit in the last 3 days. Amazing! Wish there was one near me. Great food! Focaccia and brie app. Sangira. Linguine and turkey meatballs. All terrific. Reservations for parties of 6 or more. This place makes me feel so safe... I just might fly in to eat here again.

Delicious! Dined at this location several times during my stay in Scottsdale. Loved the salads, the pizza and the desserts! OMG! Favs were fig and Gorgonzola pizza and tiramisu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

It’s so refreshing to see a place where hubby can swallow most of the menu without any issues for cross contamination or being glutened. He ordered the GF pizza which is made in a separate oven. The quality is great and emerge pizza flavor is really good. I ordered a white bean and kale soup and it was really good. We also had the cheese bread which is to die for. Highly recommended

Awesome chicken parmesan. The lasagna looked good. GF cheese bread is tasty.

Feels good to order from a place and not have to worry if it has been cross contaminated. Everything we had was great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Was sooo excited because everything on menu was gluten free....but evidently NOT..I ordered the gluten free pizza and a Caesar salad, and was assured by server that I would be fine...well I was soo sick, something got cross contaminated. I didn't realize they had regular pizza crust until I heard another table ordering non-gluten free crust..ugh..So if you are going to do a true gluten-free restaurant do a completely GF restaurant. If someone wants a regular pizza, who are not Celiac they have millions of choices...I do not....

Celiac friendly?

No

We went to the Sedona one last week and Gilbert today and the food is fantastic. So much gluten free choice - we were really impressed and will defiantly be back. A great choice of food and gluten free beer

We visited last week. My husband follows Celiac diet. This place was very alert friendly, however we had a terrible waiter, did not pay attention to our orders or act as though he cared about allergy concerns. Very inattentive, however the safety of the menu and attention to allergies of the restaurant did make my husband feel safe. He had no adverse reactions after eating and the gluten free options were delicious.
