Pizzicata: THE BEST ITALIAN FOOD IN AZ?! AZ’s First Certified Pinsa Romana Spot! What’s a Pinsa?



Craving authentic Italian in Arizona? Look no further than Pizzicata!
Pizzicata brings the taste of Umbria to Arizona, with their delicious family recipes and warm hospitality. They’re not just any Italian restaurant – they’re the first official pinsa restaurant in Arizona, certified by the Authentic Roman Pinsa Association!

What’s pinsa? It’s a type of Roman flatbread that’s lighter and easier to digest than traditional pizza. It’s made with a unique blend of flours and undergoes a long fermentation process, resulting in a crispy crust and airy interior.

Ready to experience the taste of Italy in Arizona? We certainly love this place!

Imported oven from Italy I cannot wait let’s go check this out hey guys we are here in Mesa Arizona North Mesa it’s still Mesa it’s very North and this is a a brand new authentic pizza Italian actually not just this is crazy and they have the the

The the napole style it’s called pizata yeah pizata and they have it’s in Carefree and it’s also in Cave Creek and third restaurant they just opened a month ago and wow the food looks incredible it’s busy here as well they came from Italy in 2018 directly here so

This is legit yeah all right and let’s just get started cuz I’m hungry um we’re going to start with a traditional cheese pizza sure we have a slice of traditional cheese pizza why because our kids needed cheese pizza so let’s taste it Go the dough nice and thin it’s just like you know this is made my hand and she was saying look at the bubbles inside of the dough itself that’s how you can tell and now they they um you know it’s a little floppy it’s not crispy but they

Said that’s that’s what how it is right this this is a really good thin crust pizza that has a nice soft crust and the cheese is sauce it’s so good no one of the kids finished the whole pizza already no they finished two pizzas all

Right do we want to stick with a pizza so this pizza is the Versace I like how they name their pizzas though the Columbus the Versace the Leonardo they have different names this guy has meatball and a whole bunch of ingredients that I can’t pronounce but let’s go

Oh wow this is It’s like a work of art the crust it’s so soft I know but I mean all the flavors on top too like from the meatball the meatball to whatever they drizzled on top here I mean this is this is incredible it’s great wow the flavor

Man wow I I’m speechless I’d say normally I like the the harder I love Crispies but but this is this is so oh so good I’m coming back here for this mix it right here wow this is unbelievable man now that the wood fire oven that they have it’s real wood and

Uh they imported that from Italy this is I’m I’m still in shock of the flavor of this pizza it’s crap okay next up the mon monat and this is the like pizza dough that’s fried yeah they give you three little different variations and it’s like they they drizzle this one has

Pesto and what is this what is this Bata pesto and then this one is like a honey some type of honey thing going on here I it’s so soft soof oh wow the dough is so soft that because this is all right there you go I’m B oh bro the [Applause]

Soft I’m I’m in heaven right now this is this is amazing all right and these are lamb skewers and it’s made it’s it’s variation is from the owner’s mom’s town where she’s from so she said it’s very very very traditional y I’ve never had an lamb skew at an Italian restaurant in

My life so there we go oh that is really good I’ll tell you why because the Char on it the Char on it is perfect you still taste the lamb you still taste little bit L it’s tender it’s it’s flavorful I mean they just probably don’t give enough honestly no they serve

It on a bad a yeah um try to be healthy right and they give some of this bread with it too to make you not healthy but this is probably handmade bread dough too mhm it is wow this is this is I’m all right Hy this is the

Pinza now pinza is a little bit different because it’s a different dough and actually they has like less it has soy Wheats and something else in it but it it makes it a different blend and they’re the only certified re restaurant they said in Arizona for pza I don’t

Know who certifies it but they’re certified they’re certified and you can see the Crusty sticker right yeah and it doesn’t flop it’s crispy this one is called the uh Viola so it has avocado sun dried tomatoes some chicken some evu which is extra virgin olive oil thanks

Sean he taught me that and it has pesto all right I’m excited there you [Applause] go wow definitely flavorful that flavor of pesto is nice the CR is definitely different it’s a crispy crust yep but I heard that like even like the avocado on it the sundried tomatoes it’s just like

Really good combination and they have so many combinations of things here but they said this is a healthier pizza so I guess we could eat more of this one good so you have to get all the pizzas when you come here all the pizzas too short rib ravioli it’s not just a

Big chunk of short rib they actually take the short rib and stuff the ravioli with short rib with short rib inside and it’s all handmade everything here is made from scratch this is this is not your Chef boy Rd here all right all right here we go
