I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
How would you like to travel to Italy without leaving the Grand Canyon State? One way to do that is by dining at an Italian restaurant. And if you love pasta, you can enjoy some of the freshest pasta in Arizona at Michelina’s Ristorante. This Phoenix-based Italian restaurant is a hidden gem you must try!
Tucked away in a small plaza at Shea and the 51 is an Italian restaurant that's easy to pass by. However, Michelina's Ristorante is a hidden gem that's worth finding.
The restaurant was opened by Michelina DiSibio who is originally from Gesualdo, a small town near Naples, Italy. The food served here reflects her Italian background. Additionally, several pieces of art adorning the restaurant's walls feature her hometown.
The pasta is fresh and satisfying. Honestly, there's nothing better than a heaping plate of pasta sometimes, right? Try the Angel Hair Pomodoro or the Linguini and Meatballs with marinara sauce-- such classics!
Michelina’s is located at 3241 E Shea Blvd. in Phoenix, AZ.
