As COVID-19 restrictions ease, Picazzo’s Healthy Italian Kitchen is serving up a solution for those looking to shed any lingering “Quarantine 15" pounds. Picazzo’s, located at 7325 Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard, is an Arizona-based family-owned healthcentric restaurant, offering a menu of salads, entrees, pasta and pizza. The eatery fuses modern-Italian cuisine with bold flavors of Asian, Mediterranean and Mexican ingredients.

Boasting other locations in Sedona, Tempe, Gilbert, Paradise Valley and Arrowhead, Picazzo’s serves 90 to 95 percent organic produce. It sources whole foods rich in nutrients for self-described “Healthitarians” – including gluten-free diners.
