One of the hidden gems of Scottsdale is Maggiano's. This traditional Chicago born Italian restaurant is definitely a must when you want to enjoy a wide variety of foods at a great price.

| Bread is always abundant, warm and fluffy, totally love it |
 |
| You have to ask for balsamic to add to your oil |
When you think Italian food pasta is the first thing that come to mind and we all know that it is hard to find lighter pasta dishes for those who watch their diet closely. Maggiano's offers at least 5 light option on their menu and I have to say that their are all delicious, hands down my favorite is the lighter take zitti dish, delicious turkey sausage baked over zitti pasta with ricotta cheese.

| meat lasagna for those of you who want the real deal |

For us dieters here is the baked zitti, so delicious!

By now you guys know that I always eat dessert right? I always make some room for some indulgence. I have tried their apple crostata and their classic cheesecake and I have to say the latter is my absolute favorite, it's so creamy and light that I eat all by myself without feeling gilt.
Remember I mentioned great prices? Maggiano's offers a killer deal, dinner for 2 people including one appetizer, 2 entrees to dine in and 2 more to take home and a dessert to share; all that for just $40 bucks, I don't think I can get better than that.

| For an appetizer we went for the sausage flatbread |

| their cheesecake is out of this world people, try it. |
I hope you guys out Maggiano's in your must go to list and let me know how much you love it.
