Had dinner at Babbo’s on a quiet weeknight and tried the shrimp creamy garlic pasta. The sauce had good flavor, the shrimp were cooked nicely, and the portion was enough for me—most people could probably get a second meal out of it. The bread was what some might call ‘soft’ but to me it was a strange kind of squishy, but the olive oil and balsamic tasted good and made up for it, and the spring‑mix salad was fresh and felt on the healthy side.
Servers were an eager, younger crew, but they were friendly, checked in on me, and seemed to care. The space itself is simple and no‑frills, but the prices are reasonable, parking is easy, and it worked well for a quick, casual,weeknight Italian dinner.

This is a typical Italian chain restaurant food is meh service was ok because with just one server and a manager for HH took over an hour to get drinks for 16 of us and we were pretty much the only ones there. Babbo tini was good chicken parm special look ok for $9.99 and firecracker appetizer was like some thing reheated that was frozen waste of money. Probably will not go back, I personally make better food.

Great pasta and pizza joint. The place has a fun vibe with great booth seating. Tons of options on the menu with some unique twists on classic dishes. Portion sizes were larger than expected. The family loved it. Definitely recommend.

If Olive Garden had a baby, it would be this place. I mean how can they claim to be an Italian restaurant. The place is very nice, the server was a sweetheart but the food was really awful. I wish I could be nicer but for $115 with tip, we had 2 apps, 2 glasses of wine, 1 bowl of pasta and desert. Wait, the tomato mozz was actually pretty good. Please be better. Could be such a great place.

Whenever in Scottsdale Arizona, we won’t leave town before having dinner at Babbo’s Italian Eatery. Their spaghetti and meatballs are delicious, the people there are kind and attentive and their boss Brandon is the greatest.

Nice restaurant, great bread with olive oil and vinegar as starter. I was in a hurry and ordered the Sicilian pizza which sounded amazing. The pizza was good, but crust a little floppy for my taste. Flavor or crust was good but flavor of toppings just didn’t pop as expected. I will definitely give them another try when I have time for a nice dinner.

First time eating here, I’d have to say the best part of my visit was the kind older customer that gave me and my family some cash for dessert. She has kind words to say about my daughters, however the food , service and overall atmosphere for us was very unpleasant. My dish was dry and the service from our server was very unwelcoming. We felt rushed with the drop off of Togo boxes which we didn’t ask for and the drop off of the check seamed a bit quick. There were only two other tables other than us. Wish the food and service matched the overall atmosphere the building gives off at entrance.

I found the food just OK. Nothing special. It was very much a chain restaurant quality. The atmosphere is drab and depressing. The waitress was efficient and friendly. The best part was the bread and oil served before the food. Next time we are in Arizona I would not go there again.

First time visitor and got the lunch special. Large portion sizes and quick service. The food was highly satisfactory though the salad was a bit over dressed and the pasta over sauced to my palatte. Would definately recommend this place especially with the reasonable price point.
