Michelina's

You have to look QUICKLY to spot the restaurant in the mini mall. Lovely atmosphere (large flower arrangements a very nice touch). Apps (stuffed mushrooms were soft and flavorful) possibly a bit pricey, but main dishes (bracciole and cioppina) were excellently prepare...d and more than generous proportions. I'd suggest splitting the cioppino and I'm a big eater. Excellent, attentive service, eager to make adjustments. Good value overall. Read More

After many disappointing meals, I can't believe Ive found the best kept secret in Phoenix right in my own backyard. I finally made it to Michelinas for dinner and was impressed beyond words. The service was impeccable from start to finish. Whether from our server or ...those helping, everyone was attentive without being intrusive. The food is to write home about. It was an experience within itself. Finally a Pink Sauce that isnt watered down tomato soup. The Sauce over the Veal Saltimbocca reminded me of home in the NE (NYC area), not to forget the Veal was so tender I cut it with my fork. They also accomodated some special requests (though I'm sure this would depend on how busy the kitchen was at the time). Definitely a place to remember and repeat for an enjoyable and well rounded dining experience. Read More

Located in a small strip mall, this small restaurant is more like going home to your italian momma. Michelina does all the cooking. And what a cook. She specializes in fish and seafood dishes, but her Oso Bucu melts in your mouth. The pasta is fresh, the sauces mild and... tasty. Try the Osters Michelina as an appetizer. Even if you don't like Osters, you will like this dish. You will find yourself sopping up the sauce with your bread. The wine list is extensive, but try one of the Cianti's with your meal. This is a special place. We think of it as our home restaurant and Michelina as our italian momma. Read More
