HOW IT STARTEDFour brothers and 30 years ago- a small Italian restaurant was born in Tempe, serving beef subs, Grandpa Cesare's sausage recipe, Grandma Cleone's spaghetti sauce, cheesecake, and our original deep dish pizza. Our little Nello's grew into an award winning "Best of Phoenix" restaurant year after year, after year... after year. Family recipes, family genius and family drama all keep Nello's going 30 years later to new generations of pasta and pizza connoisseurs.A FEW THINGS THAT MAKE NELLO’S AHWATUKEE UNIQUE:We are the only Nello’s location to use a wood fire oven, which was imported from Italy.Our pasta is made in-house daily.We stretch our own mozzarella.Some of our meats are smoked and cured in-house.All desserts are made from scratch in-house. We support local Arizona farms by purchasing their seasonal produce whenever possible.

    The cocktail menu is very appealing; Nello's has really upped their bar offerings. The food is as always, terrific. We had pizzas, 2 items off the children's menu which were generous portions for them, garlic bread and a chicken gorgonzola salad. The gelato/cookie dessert was devine. Our server was excellent without being intrusive. Nello's used to be in our rotation but since they moved out of Tempe, we fell away from them a bit. We need to get back there more often.

    I gave this restaurant all fives because I wasn't expecting delicious food at an airport restaurant. They surprised me in several ways. One, they are next to an FBO and have a fantastic view of the airplane ramp and all the planes. Two, they decorated the inside with aviation-themed items. The wait staff was responsive and attentive. The food was casual and good, and the prices were decent. They have a great selection of beers and plenty of other drinks.
