Bar: Beer & wine

A Yelp review singles out the chicken caesar pizza and mac and cheese as the best dishes at Sauce Pizza & Wine, a casual Italian-American spot in Scottsdale. The atmosphere is after-work friendly, with outdoor seating that's dog friendly. The menu focuses on fresh, farm-french ingredients with a fusion twist, though one reviewer notes the food is mass-produced rather than authentically Italian. Beer and wine are the only libations, and the wine is described as passable.

This place works best for a quick, unpretentious meal. The crowd tends to be laid-back, and the 11am to 9pm hours (10pm on weekends) make it an easy stop for an early dinner. If you're looking for something more upscale, you might prefer FEZ nearby. But for a low-key slice of pizza or comfort food without the fuss, Sauce delivers. Just don't expect fine dining or extensive wine selection.

Located in Scottsdale, this casual spot fits right in with the area's laid-back dining scene.

“Not so Sauce”

It's fine for a fast meal, but the service isn't great. The chicken caesar pizza and mac and cheese are the standout items. The wine is okay, but I wouldn't come here just for a glass. Worth a try, but don't expect to be impressed. Everything feels pre-made and suits the concept, but it's not authentic Italian in any sense.
