Restaurant Openings: Meat the Ball

In celebration of National Meatball Day on Saturday, March 9, Stefano Fabbri, the man behind Pomo Restaurant Group’s Pomo Pizzeria, Luna Gelateria and Mora Italian, has announced the opening of a new restaurant, called Meat the Ball. The concept is set to open its doors on Thursday, March 21, at the Biltmore Fashion Park.

“I’m thrilled to introduce Meat the Ball, a mini restaurant with a big personality centered on the quintessential meatball and its street food friends. We will have authentic recipes prepared with locally sourced and organic products to celebrate today’s healthy dining, Italian style,” says Fabbri.

The 1,500 square foot Meat the Ball is a full service eatery with a retro theme and touches of pop-art reminiscent of a ‘50s diner. Priced in line with casual dining, it is the perfect place for those who want to escape while choosing front row seats along the kitchen-bar combination counter to converse, watch and be served directly by the chef who is cooking the meal and the bartender shaking the drinks.

Meat the Ball’s menu includes a meatball lineup consisting of spicy sausage, salmon, veal, cauliflower and more. In addition to the unique meatball options, the restaurant offers appetizers, handmade pastas, salads, sandwiches, soups, salads and desserts.

Meat the Ball will be open Monday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. in the Biltmore Fashion Park (2502 E. Camelback Rd., #148 A & B) in Phoenix. For more information on Meat the Ball, visit meattheball.com. You can also follow them on Instagram, at @Meat.The.Ball.
