Very nice place, great patio setting with large bar. Octopus appetizer was great. Procutto pizza with fig was outstanding at a fair price.

Went there with my wife yesterday. The owner and his wife sat with us. They are incredibly kind and humble people. Ambiance is great. Service was awesome. Food was delicious. I can’t wait to go back !!

Lovely place, great food, great service but NOISY indoors… if you have any difficulty hearing when the ambient volume is high, try to get an outside table.

I’m shocked by the high ratings this place has received. We really wanted to like it. Staff was very kind and helpful. The food is abysmal. The bread tasted old and dry. The homemade pasta was chewy and hard. We had four different meals and none of us were impressed. Fresh Parmesan was a nice touch and they didn’t skimp but I’m digging deep to find praise. Cocktail was mediocre too. Ugh so sad. I rely on reviews to pick places. Hopefully if you do go here you’ll enjoy it more than we did. I hate writing bad reviews.

We not only had delicious food, but our waiter was seasoned and superb!
This restaurant used to be one of the best. The menu offerings were incredible. Not only did the menu get cut back to a bare minimum the quality was subpar. The shrimp was so overcooked and dried out, and put into a soupy base which was awful. I wish I would've known this cause the soupy base is not what I expected. The veal piccata, looked good but also not the best. The sauce it was served with also subpar. Picatta usually served with lemon and is light and this was heavy with no lemon! Taste not the best. I took my friend here because I told her how good this was. Extremely disappointed. Not coming back and not recommending to anyone again. Parking sucks too!

Food was good. Would like to go back and try again. Way too loud in area by kitchen. We did not order apps or dessert cause of sound level. Next time I would sit in front or patio.

Fantastic appetizers. Risotto Funghi was delicious. Martini was perfect with the proper ice crystals present upon serving.
Spiga Cucina is an authentic Italian restaurant in North Scottsdale that has a ton of Italian dishes on the menu and I was able to try a few of my favorites! The restaurant has a fancy feel and is great for a date or friendly dinner occasion. The Ossobuco had a great presentation and was super tender. I loved the Pollo Parmigiana and the chicken had an amazing crisp/flavor to it. Both appetizers were great, I especially liked the Polpette (meatballs).
Absolutely delicious Italian food. Hubby had the short rib stuffed ravioli and I had ricotta and spinich stuffed agnolotti. Both out of this world! We can't wait to go back!

Food was great but the service was slow and the restaurant was very loud. We had the Spiga salad, which was delicious and sizable. Then we shared the bufalina pizza and rigatoni with vodka sauce, both of which were really good. Prices were a bit high but no different than anywhere else in Scottsdale. Would definitely go back but many sit on the patio to avoid the noise!

I made 7 pm reservations. Two out of 4 were there before 7. The other two arrived at 7:02. We checked in without the other two and were told we had to wait. You gave our reservations to someone else and we had to wait - 15 minutes. Unacceptable. You really need to treat your customers a little better.

great food. great location. seemed understaffed. great wine selection, excellent pasta, it competes with the excellent Italian restaurants of the East LA, and Midwest, which are difficult to find in AZ.

Great birthday dinner! The risotto are pasta dishes were awesome, and the service perfect, but the tiramisu was worth the drive from Ahwatukee.
