Choose from freshly made pastas, wood-fired pizzas, and house-made desserts, or opt for entrées like wood-roasted lamb chops and vegetables, or some of the best cioppino in town. Packed with fresh mussels, scallops, calamari, and jumbo shrimp (all from local purveyor, Chula Seafood), in a hearty marinara sauce, the dish can also be ordered with tagliatelle pasta. Most entrées are finished in the wood-fired oven, so a kiss of smoke brings all the flavors together beautifully. Chef/owner Fabio Ceschetti is always around for quick “ciao!” from the open-concept kitchen in the middle of the restaurant. The friendly staff can help you decide between the huge lasagna, with its homemade pasta, Bolognese, and besciamella, or gnocchi, available with pesto, Bolognese, or four-cheese sauce. Neapolitan pizzas are how Fabio made a name for himself, and his are as classic as they come – thin, charred, light, mouthwatering. A list of excellent Italian wines for any budget accompany the menu as well. Fabio on Fire still provides online ordering and contactless, curbside pickup, started during the pandemic. You might miss that friendly “ciao!” from Fabio inside, but you can still taste the love in every dish. 300 W. 5TH ST., SANTA ANA IZALCO-RESTAURANT.COM 714.973.0554 32 MAY 13TH - MAY 19TH 2021 | PHOENIX NEW TIMES | EAT 2021
