"At Joya spa you can get everything from your run-of-the-mill pampering to cupping ($190), IV therapy ($150), and hypnotherapy ($199)."

IV therapy?

Been awhile since I've been to Chris Bianco's place: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/west/...on-t-miss.html

He also has a deli/sandwich place Pane Bianco: http://www.pizzeriabianco.com/our-team

I hit up Piazza Bianco a year and a half ago and I'd rank the pizza as in my Top 5 ever eaten.

For a fun brunch or coffee, this is a favorite spot of mine: http://www.lagrandeorangegrocery.com/

The weather will be perfect for eating outside too.

I went to Pizzeria Bianco (I'm assuming the same place?) for lunch about 2-1/2 years ago and thought it was just ok. Very overpriced for what we got.
It was summer, and a late lunch (1:30 or so), no line.
(my #1 pizza place is a small place around the corner from Carlo's Bakery in Hoboken, NJ. no attitude, and much less $$$ than Bianco).

If you want good food in metro Phoenix, there's far better, with much less drama.

Actually, I can't recommend Fez enough. Good food, decent prices, and now they're close to downtown. I've never been disappointed with a meal there (new or old location).
