It's decent. Portions are very small and the price is pretty high. Nothing was particularly flavorful or good. Everything I had was 4/10. Overall very underwhelming experience.Service was great and it was cute inside but would not come again.

The bartender was so knowledgeable about the food and had great customer service. The food was amazing I had a pizza the bread was cooked perfect and taste was one of the best I’ve had in AZ! My husband had a meatball pasta and loved the fresh taste of the meat and sauce. We just moved here and purchased our first home together this will be a regular spot for date night !

Mimi Forno! An Italian hidden gem! Here's my 2 cents. Whenever I go to a restaurant especially if it's something like MiMi Forno, I do a little homework first, and I did. This place is a cool find. It's in a Shopping Center in the middle of nowhere on Baseline and 35th Avenue, beautiful mountain views. It deserves its own parking lot! Heck, TBome has their own....JS! This owner, from Italy, started this restaurant after he started his farm, which is also in South Mountain. The farm has 300 olive trees and he makes his own olive oil. He says he spices it up. I asked for a bottle of it at the table, just so I could try it. It's really good, it's not spicy like they said. I kind of shook the bottle up to stir up the spices so I could try to see if it was spicy, because I really like spice, it wasn't. Now for the pizza. This pizza oven is copper, it's beautiful, it's from Napoli. My mother and the lady that I went with have been to Italy a dozen times,they told me that this was the best pizza they've ever had in the United States. It really was good. We had two 12-inch pizzas, Cappricciosa and and there were three pieces left between the three of us so if go there, keep this in mind. We had the Salsiccia, and the cappricciosa. Yum! The olives on the cappricciosa were a nice touch. They make their own gnocchi and they make their own spinach ricotta ravioli and pappardelle, we didn't have that, but we will next time. Their wine list is exceptional. My mother had a glass of Chianti and loved it. During Happy hour, it's $4 a glass, by the way, which is Monday through Friday. I asked the chef, who is from Italy and barely speaks English, because when doing my research on the place, I discovered that the dough is a 75% hydration ratio, so I asked him how they come about that. I can't exactly repeat it but it is fascinating science and the guy does know what he's doing. Save room for dessert, because the cannolis were delicious! If you order them, you get three little cannolis. We also had the tiramisu, scrumptious, creamy, perfect. They have a three dessert special for $22 and it's worth every penny. There were three of us. We loved it and you will too. We will be going back there regularly!

I ordered 2 lasagnas and polpette, this was my first time coming here and I couldn’t wait to try the lasagna. I had taken my first bite and it was ice cold like it has just came out of the refrigerator and it tasted old.

The place was packed when I got there, so I knew I was in for a treat. Lasagna bolognese, chased with a mimosa was a great dinner choice for me. Looking forward to eating there again when i'm back in town to try something different.
