no sauce, but much better!

The other night Rene and I had a craving some good Italian pizza and salad. First place that came to mind was Sauce. Of course we wanted to bring Whiskey along but I had a feeling I should call ahead... GOOD THING! I asked if dogs were allowed on their patio and the man on the phone said "Ah, no they are not... because of that law..." and then he hung up. LAW? What law? If there is such a law I would definitely like to know about it! Anyone? I understand about animals not being inside for health and safety reasons, but always figured it was the choice of the owner if our fellow canines were allowed on the patio.

So, I move on to our next choice: 3 Tomatoes & A Mozzarella (Miller/Pinnacle Peak Rd), and it was such the better choice! Since the previous experience I decided to also call ahead to check on their pet policy. The wonderful owner answered the phone and when I asked if well behaved dogs were allowed on the patio she happily said "of course! We always welcome dogs!" So nice, a breath of fresh air to feel so welcomed.

When we showed up 10 minutes later the host told us we could go around to the patio where we happened to be the only ones out there (very nice and quiet). After we sat down the owner came out and welcomed us with a big smile and pet Whiskey on the head. Two minutes later she brought him a nice bowl of cold water (what service!). We enjoyed our night with great food, a glass of wine, a quiet view and sunset to die for... all while our mutt was by our side.

I am sure this place will become one of our favorites!
