    Rusconi's is our absolute favorite fine dining restaurant. Wonderful food in an unpretentious atmosphere. This visit did not disappoint. After enjoying lemoncello cocktails we started with beet salads. This was followed with our favorite entrees, grilled salmon with blackberry glaze, accompanied by Squealing Pig Sauvignon Blanc. Finally we split a Dark Chocolate Bread Pudding for dessert. Our favorite server Fritz was in rare form keeping us entertained while providing outstanding service. Before leaving for the evening, we made reservations for two more evenings in the next few weeks! PS- when "foodie" friends visit Arizona, they request a visit to Rusconi's

    This was our first visit to Liberty Station. As we entered, we found the decor to be warm and inviting. Our server visited the table shortly after we arrived. She was very knowledgeable about the menu, offering suggestions, and was attentive during the whole meal. A happy hour menu was offered, so our first drinks were at a reduced price which was a good value. We had the wings on the happy hour menu, which were not the best value, however, they were nicely cooked and flavorful. The walleye fish was very good and the accompanying roasted potatoes were outstanding! The trout was a little fishy, however, the green beans and potatoes sides were tasty. Our friend felt the pork dish had a really good flavor, but contained far more pasta than pork, which was not to his liking. All entrees were moderately priced. We did not have dessert. We enjoyed the experience and will definitely return to try some of the other menu items.

    Excellent service by our wait person Laine. Our dinner was delayed but well worth the extra wait. We split our dinner which thoughtfully came on separate plates. Our entree was compted due to the delay. Not necessary but we were grateful. Drinks very good.
