Pomo - Phoenix

I don't usually go to Italian restaurants but going here I don't regret it! I tried the Gramigna homemade pasta and it was really tasty! I also tried an appetizer that came w/ shrimp (I forgot the name of it) it was also very good, definitely would recommend them both. And the service was great as well! Even though the restaurant was very busy, my server Leilani was very helpful with the menu and always made sure to check up on me if I needed anything. Will for sure be coming back!

We ate here twice on our trip. The pizza and pasta are very tasty and the server was attentive and polite. Highly recommend!

Recently moved to the valley and this was the first place I tried! The food was pretty good, but I will say, I had an excellent experience with the staff! Everybody was very kind. The restaurant is very walkable and easy to find.

Just yum! We ordered the formaggi and the Pomo pizza. Also the honey and ricotta focaccia appetizer. The focaccia was so soft and delicious! Add the ricotta and honey and it's just a match in heaven! So delicious! For the pizza- the crust was the best part! So fluffy and delicious! The formaggi was definitely the better pizza. The Pomo just tasted basic. Still good but I preferred the formaggi. Each pizza carries six slices so definitely doable for a hungry person or to share. We also got the torta Nutella. Now I usually hate Nutella but this slice of chocolate goodness was warm and melted on the tongue. It came with vanilla gelato which just pairs with it perfectly. Totally recommend getting dessert.

The service was kind of blah but not super terrible.

I want to hope this was a fluke experience, but yikes it was overall terrible. We were a party of 6 coming in to have dinner last night, our waiter took our order and didn't course appetizers. All apps and main courses hit our table within 6 minutes of placing our order. The honey, prosciutto appetizer was good but it seemed like the restaurant and kitchen were both just in a rush. My husband had the gnocchi dish but it had no texture at all- it was baked to mush and burnt on top. The pizza was passable, but soggy in the middle. Our waiter came back to fill our waters around when he also dropped our check. Waiter was definitely trying, just seemed inundated.

Overall I was very disappointed and would not return.

Get the GRAMIGNA BOSCAIOLA! It's the green and yellow mushroom pasta that is highlighted on the menu for a reason! Personally, I think that the other pastas fall a little short but this one is to die for!
Our server with the British accent was super friendly and funny, but service was a little spotty. I don't think it's all on him though, they look like they could use another server on the floor.
We had outdoor seating on a great day and I have no complaints about that!
However, the bread is NOT complimentary. I wouldn't mind otherwise but it wasn't on the menu so it was a bit of a surprise when the bill arrived.
The vibe is casual date night, or a great place to take someone you haven't seen a while.
They also make a great mocktail!

First time eating here, first time at Phoenix. They were getting pretty packed at 6pm but we had a reservation so got seated right away. They had amazing variety of pizza/pasta. The only thing I didn't like was that the pizza itself was a little soggy because it was thin crust. However the crust itself was great. It's very loud inside and a bit chaotic. I think it would be okay for medium groups as the place itself is pretty small. It has some good outdoor seating as well.

The service... 10/10 for sure! Definitely had a great time eating here and the ambience is great. Our server was super patient and welcoming going over their popular dishes!

As for the food itself... it was decent. The dishes were great and my party loved the service, but we often found that we have had better Italian food.

What we got....

Bruschetta Crudo, Figs and Honey - comes in two big pieces, but we requested for it to be sliced in half for sharing! It was yummy.

Burratella - this pizza was personal size, but perfect for sharing along with other dishes. The pizza itself was good, but nothing special. They did offer a spicy dipping sauce on the side for more flavor.

Tagliatelle Bolognese- the portion may seem small but it is definitely filling! Taste exactly as you would imagine for a red sauce pasta.

Gramigna Boscaiola- the Noodles/pasta were a bit firm. The sauce was good but can be heavy overtime as you eat. It was okay, I would opt to try something else next time. Though it may just be my tastebuds that find this dish ok!

Pomo is an authentic pizzeria that delivers the traditional feel and flavors of Italy's most beloved places such as Naples. A true classic in the Valley and each bite is an immersive cultural experience. Thank you for your hospitality and consistency in quality and unforgettable experiences.

A group of 6 of us enjoyed a fabulous lunch- beverages, appetizers and the best gluten-free pizza I have had in 2 decades! The other 5 members of the group did not require gluten free, but were happy with the pizza as well. Our staff member Zoë was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient but never made us feel rushed. I'd love to return again!
