Picazzo's Healthy Italian Kitchen

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!

We went for late lunch, food was excellent. My GF/DF wife had chicken parm for the first time in many years with no issues. I enjoyed pizza while minimizing salt and was very pleased. Would return.

We love this place! My husband and I both have celiac and we have never gotten sick from eating here. Lots of options for vegan as well as an amazing GF menu. I love the Zo’s salad and tomato soup. 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

We love their GF pasta dishes for the kids. But their GF pizza is not good, too thick and too little sauce and cheese.

Celiac friendly?

It was amazing! We had cheese bread, pizza and Chicken Parmesan. It was wonderful being able to order anything off the menu. It all tasted so good I was concerned I was going to sick, but I didn’t!

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

Celiac friendly?

The entire menu is gluten free. (They can make a gluten pizza for your friend:) The menu is extensive. I’ve been several times now and everything is great. Highly recommend for serious celiac like myself.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We ordered 2 pizzas. One was great but the other had been rolled out super thin & the crust was like a dry cracker. But it was celiac safe, even Nima tested.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went here three times on vacation- worth the $!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly?

Everything in restaurant is gluten free. For non GF customers they can order non GF pizza crust if they want. I had GF pasta with Alfredo sauce and chicken. It was delicious. I had raspberry cheesecake for dessert. Staff are knowledgeable and super friendly. I highly recommend the Scottsdale Arizona location.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing Gluten free food and dairy free also and I believe the other major allergies. The pizza is incredible and this last time I had chicken parmigiana that was both gluten and dairy free and it was wonderful. Every time I go, I have to have their exceptional NY style cheezecake, which you would never know is gluten and dairy free. In fact other people I was with couldn't believe it wasn't! Everyone was happy with their meals, although this last time there was a problem with the Chicken Picasa but the wonderful staff took care of everything. They are always very friendly and eager to help and all seem to be very knowledgeable. This is by far, my favorite Gluten free restaurant... and not just in Arizona. Go and enjoy, you won't regret it.

Celiac friendly?

Great kid meals, wonderful pizza, heaven for celiacs.

Celiac friendly?

Thought I found my GF Italian restaurant, but no. We ordered GF pizza and GF pasta, both of which were not very good. Typical GF tastes. Wish it were better.

Chicken Parmesan was very very good. Staff knowledgeable of gf options. Give it a try.

We have eaten here many times and my daughter who has celiac disease has never gotten sick. Great food, lots of choices, and knowledgeable staff. This is our go to place!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love this restaurant! They are super conscious about dietary needs from gluten free to dairy free. They go above and beyond and always ask if you want gluten free options. Amazing, fresh food and awesome desserts too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I got GF funghi pizza and GF focaccia. It was super soft and the pizza was good! The GF pizza is baked in separate dedicated stone oven. I didn’t get glutened.

The pizza was to die for! Service was slow, but the wait was worth it. So many crust options to fit any dietary needs. Staff is very knowledgeable and they have a dedicated stone oven for gluten free pizza. There’s food options for the whole family. I thoroughly enjoyed my pizza and will be dining here again if in Sedona!! Highly recommend.
