Pizzicata Carefree Pizzeria Ristorante - Pizza restaurant in Carefree - 7212 East Ho, N Hum Rd, USA

Fun little spot. Was slow the day we went in, but the service was friendly and the food and drinks were great. I highly recommend the viola pizza, it was delicious. The pizza crust was really good too, thin, nicely cooked undercarriage,zero flop, nice crunch, great taste, maybe a little too much aioli sauce on top but I still enjoyed it. Moscow mule was good and the kids enjoyed a simple butter noodles. If you are looking for a pizza stop in Carefree/North Scottsdale, check this one out.

Date night with Mrs. V. I have had this Italian pizzeria and eatery on my foodie radar for a few weeks. We were greeted and seated immediately by their friendly staff. We began with the Fritto Misto di Mare (shrimp & calamari) for a starter, which was perfectly prepared, light and delicious. I ordered the meat lovers “Pinsa.” (Pinsa is healthier than traditional pizza) This is the best pizza I have eaten since moving to AZ seven years ago. Frannie ordered Gnocchi Bolognese. AH-mazing! Loved the vibe of the outdoor seating. However the star of the show was our server Peter, who was extraordinarily friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. Also on staff was Mateo, who made you feel like family. I drove to Pizzicata from Gilbert, and it was well worth the 48 miles one way! We can’t wait for the new Mesa location to open!! Highly recommend!!!

Authentic Italian family owned. We had the pizza - very good crust. Eggplant Parma - a bit cold but delish. Tortellini pasta with cream sauce and sausage - very good.The calamari with shrimp was fantastic. Wine selection was good too. Temperature was a bit warm. Open environment. Hopefully they use the A/C when it’s warmer out. We’ll return for another meal.

What a very cute place! Good drinks and a beautiful quiet patio with cute Art around. Perfect when the weather is Nice. Great for Lunch. Server was nice And got us in and out for lunch! Pizza 🍕 isn’t “pizza” But tastes great without the bloat! Less sugar too! Definitely will go back! Parking probably is difficult when it’s really busy. Its tucked away in the back but worth it!

Amazing Roman pizza. Very authentic. Service a bit slow but the amazing pizza made up for it

Nobody called or texted to let me know my pizza and calamari were ready. I picked it up over 20 minutes late on faith it must be done by now. I received it less than room temp "from the warmer" they looked like they waited to start closing to call me and on top of it forgot my ranch I paid for. Great. It'll take a lot to get he to come back here. I regret ordering from here

The food was amazing. Unfortunately the service was definitely lacking. It took forever for the server to come and take our order. Another table waited an extremely long time to get their drink. There were 3 tables with dirty dishes on them the whole time we were there (30 minutes). Finally a guy at one of the tables bused the table in front of him so he didn’t have to look at it. There were only 3 couples and one guy eating so it wasn’t busy. The server was friendly but I don’t think this is a profession she should be in. My husband said he would not keep her in this job. The other gentleman at the next table was complaining to his wife. My eggplant was amazing but in the future I will order to go. Sad since the food and atmosphere are wonderful.

Food was delicious. The gnocchi gorgonzola was creamy and heavenly. For pizza (pinsa) we tried the 4 formaggi, inferno, and viola...all had lots of flavor. Our only complaint is that it was sooo hot inside and judging by the waiter's response this is normal to not have great AC. We truly would have hung around for more drinks and dessert had we not been sweating. We will return because it was yummy but will wait til late fall
