Every time I go back to AZ I try and make it a point of visiting! This place is so wonderful. My husband and I have gone on a couple dates here, and their hospitality is Extraordinary! They are family owned and the food is homemade ( in house of course) it's fresh, it's freshly made ice cream, their desserts are delicious. HIGHLY recommended.

Wow!!! This place is epic. It reminds me of back home!!! The food was beyond amazing. The owner waited on us. Everything came out fast & fresh. Atmosphere is conducive to eating at your Italian uncles house. I suggest the smoked chicken rigatoni, and the petite syrah.

I've been here several times, and their food is always great. However, this time, I have been watching my carb intake and was not looking forward to finding something that met my diet needs at an italian restaurant. I was surprised by the options I had, plus I could substitute any pasta with vegetables. I had the chicken cachitori with vegetables and I was so happy with it!! I was praising my dish the entire time I was eating ( and I don't do that!!). It's probably my favorite dish of all time!!

Went for dinner and were seated immediately. Ordered Calamari for an appetizer and Chicken Alfredo with a side of Garlic Bread. Personally was not a fan of the Calamari, it was pretty chewy and the sauce was too 'watery'. The Alfredo and garlic bread were very good. The bread is very thick and filling and I am glad the butter was warm and not served frozen. Overall I liked it.

This Italian dream was a true hidden gem for us. We recently moved to the Bell area and we stumbled across this restaurant Vicky is absolutely wonderful. kind and funny. Made us feel like we had been there before Natalino is the owner. He was also very kind and you could tell he took pride in his food I had veal marsala and my husband had the salmon. It was so delicious. The best i have ever had and The flavors were so fresh and made me want to order it for my family dinner. the dim light was such a beautiful ambience just enough light that you need it is very romantic The whole staff you could tell they loved what they are doing We will definitely return again

Take notes, restaurants. Good service is defined by my experience here. I ordered a dish and asked if it was spicy. In response I was asked "do you want it spicy?" Hell yeah, and it was great. When asked if I want a drink refill, I said not yet. The person actually listened and waited, and was responsive when I needed a refill. He then only refilled when my glass was about as empty as it was when I got my first refill. At the time I was driving, so I didn't drink at the bar, but next time I'm definitely giving that a shot.

Very good food here. I had the chicken parmigiana, and added a few meatballs on the side for good measure. Sauce was delicious and tasty, and the chicken was cooked just right. The meatballs were quite a treat. The bread was a nice complement to the meal.

Food was pretty good and the waiter was super nice. Their bread and their cake were my favorite! Only downside was they didn’t offer to refill my boyfriend’s drink.

I have lived near Natalianos for years and never went there, but finally the last two weeks me and my wife decided to go and it was great. I had the Chicken Parmesan the first week, it was great, tender and great Sause, then I had the Lasagna and that was great also, my wife love the clams and salmon. Highly recommend this place. Wayne

Wife and I pass this place all the time and decided to try it out.We ordered bruschetta as an app. The bread was nicely toasted, great garlic flavor. I order the veal parm and my wife got the lasagna. My veal parm was delicious. The veal was cooked well, the tomato sauce was flavorful and there was plenty of melted mozzarella. My wife loved her lasagna. The meat sauce was very rich and flavorful and the pasta was tender. For desert we tried the cannoli. The cannoli shells were crispy and flavorful. The filling was creamy and sweet. I highly recommend them.

Took myself out to dinner and enjoyed a peaceful time on their patio. Prices were average. Everything tasted good from the wine, to the food, to the cannolis. Definitely will be going back. Service was very nice and timely. I enjoyed looking at the palm trees and lookout mountain in the distance.

OMG the most homemade in house made items. Sauces ( family recipes) rosemary, in house bread made, deliciously crafted normal Italian food. Good food with good sizes and good prices. Menu esay size.

This place has awesome food every time i go there!! The service is AMAZING. The owner remembered my name the second time I came there, and his suggestions were spot on...I have had the clams there and they were special; the Pizza was tasty, and the Chicken Parmesan was outside of this world!!!! I have had other stuff too, and EVERYTHING I have had has been exceptional!! This place has indoor and outdoor seating and I can tell others like it too, because he always has people there.. The place is huge so i did not worry about being socially distant as there is plenty of space to accommodate!! Get there soon and get there often!!!!

Best Chicken Parmesan sandwich ever tasted. Chicken was so tender and the sauce on top was great just perfect balance with the cheese. I would love to be able to buy the sub roll also but forgot to ask. The sub roll the cheese, the sauce the breading, the chicken perfect together. This is what a sandwich should taste like.

So very delicious, I couldn't take a pic this time, ate it to fast. The rigatoni Bolognese worth the money. Went back for a second visit to add some pics. Homemade quality, healthy, and filling food. Very replenishing.

We had a nice lunch here, midweek. I had a chicken parm sandwich with fries, my wife had the sausage/peppers on top of angel hair. Service was very good. Never had an empty water glass. Nice toasted bread with the pasta. Really great flavors on the chicken parm and sausage. Not much of a wait for the entrees to come out. Finish it off with a large cannoli to share. If I had to order again, I’d probably get a full size pasta or chicken parm, as they’re so delicious.

Superb authentic Italian food. We had the lasagne and shrimp garlic pasta, both were very flavorful and seasoned to perfection. The owner is engaged and hands on with every table, makes you feel at home. Deserts were amazing and made in house. We will most definitely make the drive back! Thank you Natalino for your hospitality and amazing food!

This place had some good food. I wasn't a fan of the Fettuccini Alfredo but other than that, it was good. The prices were expensive( to me)
