DeFalco's Italian Eatery, Grocery & Deli

The absolute best grocer and eatery around. We always get their pizza doughs in the fridge and make at home pizzas, or just the Chicago and Reuben. Excellent customer service and the best cannolis in town. Long Live DeFalcos!

The food here is absolutely amazing. Try the fresh tomato, mozzarella salad. Sometimes a small wait in line, sometimes you're waiting for a table. But it's well worth the wait.

How many others have driven up / down Scottsdale road and seen DeFalco's and thought "I really need to try that place"!Well this was the day that I finally made time to stop by after reading the menu Great little market / restaurant with amazing fresh meats, cheeses, salads and authentic Italian dishes. So happy we made the time and stopped by to have our "linner" (lunch / dinner). IYKYK when you're over 50 lol

It's been a couple of years since I've been back here, and they rearranged the store so that it's more open and flows a little better. The grocery's to shop for are on the right side and seating to dine in is all on the left.When you come in there's a deli counter for pickup or if you want to just order meats and cheeses, then the regular line forms towards on the left. We came in at lunch time and got lucky with a table for four since someone was leaving as we got there. We snagged the table and and I jumped in the line, that moved pretty quickly, to order our pizza, past, and arancini. We ordered the 16 inch "The Romulus" Diavolo style with hot giardiniera for $28.99 and the pizza came out great. You can also opt to order it with jalapeños instead of the giardiniera. The crust on the pizza is perfect and holds all the topping pretty well. My only meh thing about it is the pizza comes out dripping wet because of the veggies in the hot giardiniera. Other than that, it was really good. When you take a slice, it looks like you're filming a commercial because it's so beautifully stringy and tastes so great. The arancini was $8.99 for a ball the size of my husbands fist and came out super crunchy which contrasted so well with their house marinara sauce. The filling to rice ratio was perfect and the filling was so good with peas and ground beef.My daughter had a whole order of the fettuccine Alfredo for $17.99 and came with a side of garlic bread. They must have done away with the side salad it used to come with, which was a disappointment. The pasta was so good and the sauce was amazing. All in all a great meal, but the prices have gone up significantly but worth it if you want some Italian food that tastes like it was from a grandmas kitchen. Perfectly tasty!

We've heard great things about DeFalco's, so we finally stopped in. Our sandwiches were delicious! The employees were helpful, the place is casual and has a nice market to look through. We enjoyed ourselves!

I finally got to try out this deli place. I went in to get some takeouts after work and I was amazed by how many options they had on the menu. Even though I studied the menu on Yelp before going, I still felt hard to choose between different options since everything looked so good. The server was super nice especially after knowing it was my first time there. I got a pizza and two small sides of pasta salad. The two pasta I got were recommended by the server and she said they were both on the top seller list. There was only one size for the pizza, and it was a little bit pricy to be honest. However, the pizza was indeed tasty and fresh. The size was big enough to feed two people for at least two full meals. I heard so many good things about the sandwiches there and I hope to try them out soon.

Who knew such an amazing Italian deli existed in Arizona? This deli and shop is super cute, with very friendly and helpful employees. Their menu is big and has so many choices! Hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, salads, deli salads, and pasta. Pizza, and calzones. They have a big drink selection and nice dessert and pastry case. I had an Italian sausage sandwich with peppers and onions topped with mozzarella. (Their sauce and sausage are house made.) I also had a cannoli, which was delicious, and the filling was smooth, and the shell was just perfect as it should be. It definitely compares with the cannolis in Bostons North end. The chicken parmesan was the best I've EVER tasted.. the cheesesteak was divine as well.The seating area was nice, especially outside. If I were local, I would be a weekly regular.

Great sandwiches, good customer service. This place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The last day we were in town, before driving back to Colorado, my son requested DeFalco's again. Looking forward to going back when we are in Scottsdale again.

Tasty! I've heard a lot of hype for this restaurant. Ordered on DoorDash (or was it GrubHub, hmm) for lunch. I ordered an Italian Soda, Meatball Sandwich and Tiramisu. Food came pretty quickly and was still warm-ish. Everything was good. The Tiramisu especially. I would order from DeFalco's again.

Had this for the first time the other day and can say it was a letdown. I had a calzone, and it simply tasted bland. Not to mention, it was incredibly greasy. I was expecting more considering the prices they charged. The portion was huge, but that's about the only positive thing about it. I had some tiramusu, which was pretty good. The staff was also really friendly
