Restaurants near East Aster Villa

The food was delicious. Our service was also great. We had Regan and she was awesome! It was a little loud on the patio, but it was also very busy. My only complaint would be that they charge $10 more for a bottle of wine in the restaurant than in the tasting room, even a bottle I was getting as a gift, to go. Other than that, we enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner and we will definitely return when we're in the Phoenix area.

Thanksgiving dinner. My wife and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously. First of all, it's a beautiful space; comfortable tables, tasteful color scheme and excellent lighting. Larger room than we envisioned. We opted for the Pasta Fagioli as our appetizer; "sidebar"....we had dinner several weeks ago at Volare in downtown Chicago and thought the Pasta Fagioli was the best we had ever had. It was remarkable at The Italiano and is the new standard bearer. For dinner we had the NY Strip Steak Parmigiano and the Fleet and Sausage Cacciatore. Both outstanding and cooked perfectly. Surprisingly, they don't offer a simple pasta as a side dish (which my wife likes) but the chef accommodated. Also delicious. If we have a small complaint it would be with the attentiveness of the server. Nice man and very helpful, when requested. Otherwise, we waited too long to have our table cleared and leftovers boxed. Small issue but there is little room for error at these price points. Great wine list. We enjoyed the 2023 Balade Pinot Noir ($85). Before tip, all in, $240. We look forward to dining at the Italiano again. I should mention the beautiful lounge area and piano player. Perfect.

WE had the best experience at Dominick's for a team business dinner. I had requested a quiet area and they were able to make this work for us, which I extremely appreciated. Nick, our waiter for the evening was INCREDIBLE! His recommendations were fantastic and accurate. Love how they are a good team and they work together to give out an excellent customer service. Definitely will be returning in the future. Thank you for the amazing service and experience.

It was mynson and my birthday and there was no acknowledgement of our birthdays even though it was on the reservation so that was disappointing. Otherwise, the food was good.

I always love going to Culinary Dropout! The food is fantastic and the atmosphere is so fun! It is not possible to Not have a great time! And, the service is always top notch!
