About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Great for happy hour
HOW IT STARTED
Four 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.

    We had a special which is not on the regular menu. It was St Patrick’s Day and and a corned beef sandwich. The meat was sliced thin, the fat trimmed off and it was delicious! Maybe the best one ever!
