WINNER: Voce Ristorante

Best Place to Get Wined and Dined

When Leccabaffi chef-owner Michael Lepore teamed with singer Khani Cole and her husband Mike Florio to open Vocé, a sexy jazz lounge and Italian restaurant in Scottsdale late last year, we knew they wouldn’t disappoint. Cole crooned for crowds at the Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort for more than a decade and now continues to sooth our souls at Vocé on Friday and Saturday nights. While she’s doing her thing, we’re plenty content to chew on some of Lepore’s award-winning dishes, like Orecchietti con Rapini e Salsicia (Orcchietti pasta, homemade sausage, olive oil and chile pepper). Or perhaps we’ll just sit back with a glass of vino and get lost in somebody’s eyes. It’s easy to do here, after all. 9719 N. Hayden Road, Scottsdale, 602-609-0429, voceristoranteandlounge.com.
