This is a cute little restaurant tucked away in the corner of a plaza, quaint decor featuring stars if the 50s/60s, Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, etc. Oldies music and karaoke some nights. Excellent Italian food, warm bread that you can't stop eating! Best is very reasonable prices, nightly specials and wonderful $7.00 lunch offerings.Don't miss this place!

A little restaurant and bar that serves sandwiches, hamburger, and salads. A wide variety of food items like fajitas, nachos, and wings. The wings tasted frozen not fresh. To add a salad to any entree is $3.99 a bit too much money in my book for a side. The food was okay but not fabulous.

You can order any combo of ingredients and they make your pizza right in front of you. Then it is cooked in a wood burning stove and delivered to your table. They also have salads and various bruschetta choices to round out the meal. Although they are personal pizzas they are large enough to share. The farmers market pizza was full of vegetables and very good as was the meat lovers pizza. We're glad you enjoyed your Farmers Market Pizza and Meat Lovers Pizza. Thank you for the 4 stars, and we hope you visit us again soon.

We love the food here especially the salads. They are very accommodating with special requests, had to have the cheese on the side. Our waitress was the best. Bellinis are always refreshing and the best in the Valley. We like to sit inside because there is a glare that comes through the windowed sun room that really bothered all 4 of us. It seems to come from other store windows and parked cars.

Stopped by for a late lunch early dinner at about 3:30 pm - was informed that they change over the coal at that time each day and no pizzas would be available until 4:30 pm - although they did have salads and desserts.....we wanted pizza so left. Would have appreciated the "no pizza available" situation noted on their website.

Twisted Italian is an Italian based restaurant that goes outside the scope of traditional Italian. While the restaurant's focus is primarily on traditional Italian food, it also goes where most traditional Italian restaurants do not, which make it a bit T

My wife and I have been here several times and never been disappointed. This time we had bruschetta as an appetizer. My wife really liked the sound of the scallop appetizer so she had that as her meal along with a slice of my pizza. I love their pizza! Our waiter kept us entertained by telling us the best places to go when we visit Italy. Even though it was warm, we chose to sit on the patio which was nice and quiet.

I saw this restaurant on Triple D...Diners, Drive-Inns and Dives. So I was curious to see if this pizza joint had a different style of pizza compared to Chicago or NYC pizza. The pizza crust was over cooked in spots, brunt on the edge, yet kinda of soggy in the middle. The sauce was mediocre at best and they did not have anchovies, which is the piece de resistance for a pizza. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is located in the heart of old town Glendale which has many options for a meal in case one is not interest in pizza!
