Spiga Cucina Italiana

Led by renowned Toronto restaurateurs, Fernando and Paula Esteves, and the best chef you’ve never heard of, Marc Martinez (North Italia), Spiga Cucina Italiana is set to bring the best of both Italy and the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal and Spain) to Scottsdale this November. Housed inside a sweeping commercial space that’s been transformed brick-by-brick into a gleaming yet rustic-accented Mediterranean masterpiece in the heart of north Scottsdale , this all-new restaurant & lounge will serve up fresh takes on classic regional Italian fare, all with a smoky, wood-fired twist. Handcrafted by Executive Chef Martinez, expect hearty, house-made southern Italian pastas and slow-braised meats; wood-baked, Neapolitan-style pizzas; whole-roasted, Sicilian-style seafood; and traditional northern Italian risottos and grilled meats – plus a 2,350-bottle wine collection featuring rare Iberia wines from Italy’s sun-drenched Mediterranean neighbors, Portugal and Spain.
