We had our rehersal dinner at the one in Chandler.  We loved it! Everything went perfect with the private room and the food was wonderful   If you want a menu just pick one up at the closest one to you.  Their menu is kind of confusing but we called them with all of our questions and and got answers right away.  If you have any other things you would like to ask I would be happy to answer them for you.

I just picked one up last weekend.  I can scan it in and email it to you if you would like.  However, you can also email the event coordinator via the link on the website and they will respond.  They may be able to send it to you.  I have been emailing them, however, I did not request an electronic copy.

Glad to hear that other people are using and have used them.  I am really excited to have my rehersal there!

Scooter, how many people did you have at your rehearsal dinner & approximately how much did it cost you? I'm thinking about having our rehearsal dinner at Grimaldi's for the bridal party/out-of-town guests, but we might have appx 50 people so I wonder if they'll be able to accommodate us or if having that many people will take me out of rehearsal dinner budget. TIA!

I have never been to any other Grimaldi's locations other than the Chandler one so I don't know the size of others ... but I know the Chandler one can accommodate that amount.  They have a private room with an attached private patio overlooking a nice water lake feature.   We had 45 ppl at our rehearsal dinner.  I really don't know the final cost because the in-laws paid the bill,  but it was very very reasonable vs. anything else we looked at.   You order everything ala carte..  an example we had 2 salads, breadsticks, 10 different pizzas and 2 desert canollies We did choose to serve alcohol so they did charge an extra 100.00 to have a bar tender in the private room and then we just paid for what people consumed.   Hope this helps you out..  let me know if you have anymore questions.

We used the Grimalidis in Old town, and it was FABULOUS!  I really can't say enough about how wonderful they were or how wonderful the food was!

The ONLY qualm I had was the $100 fee they charged JUST so you could access alcohol- this included if any of your guests went into the main restaurant and ordered from the bar- they would tack on $100.  I understand why they do it, sort of, but our RD was on a Thursday night in June- and this was non-negotiable.  In the end we decided to just not have alcohol and went over to a bar afterwards- but it's revenue they missed out on.

Thanks Ladies. I did talk to the catering manager and will be considering the north Scottsdale location. She did email me a copy of the catering menu. My problem is I am really overwhelmed with last minute wedding details and am having a hard time deciding on the menu selections for our rehearsal dinner.

LOL um ya we booked Grimaldi's at the last moment- literally I think we finalized on June 5th for our June 11th dinner

When all else fails, default to what they're famous for- everyone LOVED the pizza and barely touched the pasta type stuff we provided, everyone wanted the pizza
