**DiMaggio’s Italian Restaurant in Scottsdale is an absolute standout and an instant favorite.**
This stylish new spot opened in **McCormick Ranch just a few weeks ago**, and it already feels like a destination. We arrived on a Saturday night and chose to dine at the bar since the dining room was fully booked — always a great sign. The space has a **speakeasy-style New York Italian vibe**, with both indoor and outdoor seating that feels upscale yet inviting.
From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The entire team — from the host and bartenders to the bussers — was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. We were personally greeted by **General Manager Alexandra** and **Chef Brandon**, which speaks volumes about the pride they take in both the food and the guest experience. Every interaction contributed to one of the **best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time**.
We started with a glass of **Chianti** (a must at any great Italian restaurant), followed by **freshly baked bread and olive oil**, made in their **wood-fired oven**, which you can actually see in action.
The **Eggplant Stack appetizer** was next — a beautiful tower of fried eggplant, fresh house-pulled mozzarella, prosciutto, roasted red peppers, green tomato, arugula, and balsamic. Incredible flavor and easily sharable for 2–3 people.
For our main course, we ordered the **Bone-In Veal Parmigiana**, served with a side of house pasta. This was a nightly special and not on the menu — and without question, it was the **best veal parmigiana we’ve ever had**. Perfectly tender, beautifully balanced, and cooked with obvious care.
After dinner, we were treated to **complimentary house-made Limoncello** — I had the **Blood Orange**, and my wife enjoyed the **Traditional Limoncello**. Both were outstanding. We finished with a **lemon cake and fruit compote** — light, not overly sweet, and the perfect ending to an already fantastic meal.
**DiMaggio’s has officially become our new go-to Italian restaurant in Scottsdale.**
If you appreciate excellent food, thoughtful service, and a great atmosphere — **do not miss this place. We will absolutely be back.**
