Andreoli Italian Grocer

Is there anything chef Giovanni Scorzo doesn't do exceptionally well at his well-heeled Italian market and restaurant? With a show-stopping selection of Old World eats like a fantastic arancino siculo (Sicilian-style rice ball), classic sandwiches, luscious housemade pasta dishes such as the near-perfect seafood risotto, and a tempting selection of scratch-made Italian desserts, the answer, it would seem, is no. Phoenix may not have a Little Italy but Andreoli Italian Grocer in Scottsdale is where all the Italians, and anyone in the know, can go for a taste of the Old Country. Andreoli Italian Grocer does a brisk business in sandwiches, salads and antipasti. Additionally, the store features all kinds of imported specialty items for sale. Americanized Italian food is everywhere, but if you're hungry for something authentic, you’ve found it.
