Well that was disappointing...
The second restaurant choice for us during the Spring Arizona Restaurant Week was Spasso Pizza & Mozzarella Bar in Phoenix. This was another prix fixe menu option, priced at $30/person. If it wasn't a prix fixe menu, I would have said Spasso was extremely overpriced. By the way, this isn't exactly fun to write so I won't spend much time on it.
First Course: Shrimp Calabrese (SALTY!) & Fried Calamari (decent)
Second Course: Dover Sole (the sauce was the "highlight", not the fish) & Barrcone (more like pork schnitzel than center cut pork loin)
Dessert Course: Tiramisu (whoops, they didn't have any)....so Chocolate Mousse (Chocolate cool whip) & Creme Brulee (actually not too bad)
Wine: The best thing I can say about it is that it looked like wine.
And the worst part of it was that we were there for close to two hours because of the slow service. And this wasn't a two-hour dinner restaurant. At least the weather was nice on the patio dining area...and the bread they served (after we had to ask for it) was fresh!
