This was our first visit. After reading a lot of reviews here, I was hesitant about going. But, they were so wrong! This place was top notch Italian food and service! Everything from the homemade bread, salad, coffee, appetizers and main dish were very good!...Along with a dessert shot of Sambuca at the end! Best calamari hands down! I had the gnocchi and it melted in my mouth! Fair prices and full dishes! We cannot wait to return!More

Scottsdale Location: shocked on the way the “owner” Oscar responded to us: We had a reservation for 8:15. We arrived at 8:05. They told us the table was not ready Another couple arrived at 8:15 with a reservation at the same time as us They...sat them immediately. We still were told to wait We complained to the “owner” Oscar. He claimed the other couple had reserved a specific table. We have been dining here for 20+ years. We know Nina. Never have we reserved a specific table Oscar was not only arrogant and nonplussed about ir but he lied about the specific table. I told him I felt discriminated. This by definition is discriminatory behavior. We left and Oscar laughed and said “I’m Italian, I’m a minority”. This behavior and attitude is absolutely unacceptable.More

The vongole needed more umph. More garlic and wine. I’ve had much better clams and pasta. Everyone enjoyed their meal. But no wow factor. To get to the next level they need to really up their game. They seem to be on cruise control. This...place would not survive in NYC or LA.More

Traditional Italian seemed to be most appealing this evening, so we decided to revisit Tutti Sante, walking in. It would have been better if we had made a reservation earlier. We were initially seated at a high top in their outdoor dining area, waiting for...a no show to get a table. We got lucky, and we were seated at a table about 15 minutes later. My wife ordered Tortellini Panna Rosa, and I ordered Lasagna Bolognese. My wife thought the Tortellini was a little salty for her taste, and I agreed. She really liked the bite of my lasagna I gave her, and I really enjoyed it, particularly the taste of the fresh in-house pasta. Serving staff were attentive, and made our dining experience enjoyable, we'll come back again.More

Whatever you do, don’t make your reservation on Open Table. The restaurant called two hours before our reserved time and said they didn’t have a table for us. They blamed it on Open Table…at any rate be careful when you reserve.

We came here for dinner and had a really good meal. We started off with the calamari fritti. It was very fresh and a healthy serving size. We then ordered the chicken Parmesan and Taglioni Bolognese both with house salads. There was nothing but a...bed of lettuce and two tomatoes for the salad. I would like if they could throw in some onion or carrot or something to give it some flavor. The entrees took a very long time to arrive but they were delicious. The pasta is hand made and you can taste the difference. We wrapped up dinner with coffee. The coffee is very good but $5 for a standard cup of coffee is pretty expensive. Even Starbucks doesn’t charge that much. We paired the coffee with mini cannolis. Best cannoli filling I’ve come across in a long time. The service from the staff was excellent. Overall, it’s really close to our house so we will go again but with a few tweaks this place could be awesome.More

I’m surprised this restaurant was given such a high review. The dining room table and chairs were very close together. The bread was okay but average. I could not finish the salad…not much flavor, one cherry tomato cut in half, greens that were not cold...and not crisp at all. My ravioli was okay but I would rather have a firmer pasta like the ones at the store.More

A OVERPRICED Disappointment was huge. I’m really not sure why this place is popular? Are people just under the pretense that they heard it was good so they think it was good? Do they not know what real ITALIAN food is? What they served was...pretty pathetic at least the food we received. The tomato soup was really bland, didn’t have much flavor, nor the taste of tomatoes,Campbell’s from a can had more flavor! The manicotti with sirloin was with some not so good sauce and ground beef. I guess that’s what they call ground sirloin (ground beef) Lasagna, let me tell you about the overpriced lasagna. It was the worst that we have ever eaten, shame on you to give lasagna such a bad name. Over cooked, soft, bland, no ricotta, and had a hint of nutmeg, boring. Jackie our server was great and the second good thing, was the Aperol spritz? We did enjoy the atmosphere but it’s not enough to return! I’m upset! I JUST CAN’TMore

We have been going to Tutti Santi, twice a month, for the last seven years. We always sit at the same table, at least until the last few times. They continue to try putting us at a different table even though we make a very...specific request when we make the reservation. We also make the reservation at least a month in advance, especially in the busy season. The hostess was completely rude and unprofessional. We finally talked to the manager who was professional and helpful. We love Tutti Santi as it is our neighborhood go to restaurant. The food is always good and the servers are terrific. We certainty understand it is busy season but we have been a loyal customer for a long time. They are very happy to have our business in the summer. PLEASE fire the hostess before you lose your core base of customers.More

Our new favorite Italian restaurant. We sat at the bar and were so well taken care of by Jody. What a professional. Knows the menu and wine list cold. I love veal parmigiana and though I did not see it on the menu, they will...make it for you and it was fabulous. Started with a great Ceasar. My wife had the pasta trio and loved it. To top it off great cannoli. We love this place so much, we are going back on 12/27 with our family. Dined on 12/23. First visit but will not be last. Only drawback; we live clear across the country in Arlington, VA. Also, not overpriced at all. If you love old school made in house awesome Italian-American cuisine with amazing service, please go.More

Way over priced for the quality of the food. Pasta was so over sauced as to be ridiculous. Pasta was undercooked, not al dente, just not cooked enough. Veal dish was a hot mess The menu read that veal was served with a mushroom sauce,...but in reality it was more a plate of mushrooms covering three small, thin slices of veal. It was as if they were trying to hide the veal. This dish, too, was over sauced. Swimming in liquid which made the veal soggy. Veal was certainly not the star of this dish. Service was spotty with no less than four servers visiting our table. Wines by the glass were so overpriced. I've been drinking Italian wines for more than 40 years and know the prices. I understand the need to make a profit, but charging $12 for a glass of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo that sells at Costco for $12 a bottle is over the top. Why is a restaurant even serving a wine that is available at Costco? I'm baffled by the reviews. The food was not even mediocre. It was highly disappointing. I've eaten all over Italy from Sicily to the Veneto and I know Italian food. This ain't it. This is more of an American take on Italian food, over the top on everything.More

Lovely restaurant. Don’t let the location in a strip mall give you the wrong impression. The gnocchi was the best I have ever tasted. Like fluffy little potato pillows. Service was superb.
