Cibo E Vino

Friday, January 6th, 2012

We had dinner last night at Cibo E Vino at 34522 N Scottsdale Rd # D1  Scottsdale – 480-595-6600. This little restaurant with a great new patio is worth the drive.  We met, the owner, Chef John Collura, who made us feel at home.  We started with a pizza, there are so many types, that you may need to munch on some of the bread sticks with the homemade marinara, wait, better yet, order the pepperoni or spinach rolls.

ADDICTIVE!!!! Worth the drive alone!
