Federico's Grill

One of the worst tasting food I’ve ever had. There was no taste. One star is for customer service but otherwise taste is zero and price is too high. They serve a $7.99 bottle wine at $26 a glass. I never go this negative on my reviews but the missing taste here made me write this. We had Bruschetta, Ravioli and Gnocchi.

What a find!! I’m from the South Bay but currently live in Tempe AZ. I was traveling back on business but was also visiting with family. Looking for dinner on my last night in town, my BF and I wanted some Italian food but near Alvarado-Niles area. We decided to try something new instead of the typical restaurant chains in the immediate shopping/dining area. Just 10 min from our hotel in a cute antique part of town, known as Niles was this gem of a place. They have fantastic service, food and rustic decor, which made it feel cozy. We had an unforgettable night thanks to the authenticity of the staff and service. Again great food, wine knowledge and hospitality of staff. Definitely will be back on our next visit!

My gosh this place is horrible! I genuinely feel like their reviews are paid because this place does not deserve a 4.7 rating. We came here a few weeks ago and the food was horrible. The bread was stale and the service made me never want to come again. Our server, I dont know if its Fredrico himself, was drunk as a fiddler. Prices I dont care about as long as the food is good, but this place was an absolute waste of money. I wish Niles gets better restaurants because I feel someone needs to buy this restaurant and make it worth eating it. I highly recommend any place but here. What ticked me off the most was that the food was bad and the guy came to us about 5 times in a span of one hour to ask how the food was. the bald guy was too chatty. I was hoping to spend a quiet evening eating out with my SO, but this guy not only brought horrible food and wine but also made the evening unbearable. I am never going here again!

When you walk up to this restaurant, you may think it is a hole in the wall; but you would be wrong. The inside is beautiful and colorful. It's an intimate restaurant with beautiful, handmade tables. They have an ecclectic art collection. We were greeted by very friendly staff. Everyone is so nice. Our food was prepared perfectly and tasted so delicious. They were so excited to show us the patio and basement which aren't open yet. We will surely be back!
