The Italiano, the newest masterpiece by Chef Joey Maggiore and his team of culinary geniuses, has announced its official grand opening for Friday, September 20, 2024. Located at 90th Street and Shea Blvd. in Scottsdale, the elevated Italian restaurant will be The Maggiore Group’s sixth concept introduced to the Valley’s award-winning dining scene.
“This is truly our best concept yet! We’re drawing inspiration from every corner of Italy to blend age-old traditions with innovative approaches,” says Joey Maggiore, chef and co-founder of The Maggiore Group and Chef Joey Concepts. “We can’t wait for you to experience our family’s heritage in a new and familiar way.”
The new 7,543 square foot restaurant greets its guests with a charming entry and picturesque doorway. Adorned with limestone and olive trees throughout, the restaurant will feature traditional seating as well as an indoor patio creating an al fresco dining experience that is unmatched. Designed by the creative eye of Cristina Maggiore, The Italiano will elevate the dining experience with the addition of a private dining room with an immersive art installation that pays homage to Chef Joey’s late father’s iconic restaurant, Tomaso’s. Additional design elements include a sky-painted ceiling for guests to sip and unwind under a color-changing canvas that reflects the rising and setting of the sun.
The Italiano exudes an ambiance of casual elegance, blending warmth with sophistication, while offering authentic Italian dishes that transport you to the very heart of culinary tradition in Italy. The menu will feature the flavors of old-school red sauce Italian cuisine with a Chef Joey touch. Interactive tableside experiences will include an antipasto cart where guests can curate their own plate with over 30 different items. There will also be a must-try Limoncello cocktail cart and a Zabaione dessert cart.
The Italiano, located at 9301 E. Shea Blvd., is now hiring for dozens of positions including servers, bartenders, food runners, bussers, expeditors, hosts, line cooks and dishwashers.
