Frommer's Review

If you've had to forego this year's vacation in Italy, then don't miss an opportunity to have a meal at this Tuscan villa transplanted to the Arizona desert. Every room in this beautiful, sprawling building is gorgeous and has a distinctive character of its own. The menu is not your standard southern Italian menu, so don't go looking for spaghetti and meatballs (although you might find an excellent papparedelle pasta with lamb ragu). Instead, try the wood-oven shrimp with fennel, prosciutto, radicchio, and lemon or a dish with the house-made sausage or house-made mortadella. In fact, the best thing to do here is order a bunch of dishes and then share everything, as any good Italian family would.
