  2. Rank 2. Fabio On Fire

    Italian Pizza

    Fabio Ceschetti, a third-generation Italian baker from near the Swiss border, runs this neighborhood trattoria in Peoria where the pizza arrives blistered and chewy from a pizzaiolo who actually cares about the dough. The silky house-made porchetta and delicate handmade pastas—like lasagna layered with besciamella and ragu—are just as compelling as the pies.

    A cozy Melrose spot in a midcentury furniture store where chef Nico Zades builds the entire menu around Arizona ingredients—Sonoran wheat pretzels with guinea hen butter, elote pasta with local cheese, grass-fed beef at brunch. The adjacent Bar 1912 speakeasy leans into the same hyperlocal obsession with cocktails built on foraged pine liqueur and Arizona-sourced spirits, all served in a sophisticated but entirely unsnobby room.

The burritos are the essential order, though bowls, tacos, and breakfast round out a menu built on flavors that linger.
