Ahwatukee • (480) 706-4070

“Boomers looking for love know about Va Bene, one of the most swinging places for the mature set in town. It starts with one of the best happy hours in the Valley, from 4pm to 7pm. Tuesday through Saturday and all day Sunday and Monday. Appetizers are half-off and include excellent Italian dishes such as basil-and-prosciutto-wrapped shrimp in roasted pepper cream sauce - no soggy nachos here. Martinis come at rock-bottom $3.50. The over-50 set comes from all over the Valley for the scene here. One reason why, perhaps: In a feat of engineering, the center bar was specially built so there are no posts, giving free and clear 360-degree views.”
