Jac’s Pizzeria replaces Nello’s in Scottsdale It’s a story of a family-owned pizza parlor making way for a family-owned pizza parlor. Jac’s Pizzeria & Pub has replaced Nello’s Pizza at First Avenue and Scottsdale Road in Old Town.

And yes, there’s plenty of pizza on Jac’s menu, in East Coast-style thin-chewy crust courtesy of chef Donald Rini, formerly of Camelback Inn.

The lineup reads pretty straightforward Italian, though owner Colter Dustin does sneak some jazz in among the pepperoni rolls, eggplant Parmesan and chicken Alfredo.

Bruschetta, for example, gets the works, loaded with prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, black olives, basil and Italian spices under a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar. There’s potato soup studded with Italian sausage, a hoagie loaded with homemade meatballs, and classic pasta carbonara.

Pizzas, meanwhile, come slathered in homemade sauce, and in toppings including spicy salami, spinach and feta.
