    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

    We enjoyed a superb dining experience last night to celebrate my friend’s birthday. We did have to wait about 10 minutes or so for our reservation to open up, but in all fairness, they were inordinately busy but once seated, the service was superb. The wait staff is clearly very well trained in territory, and we found that service was like a well oiled machine, and our server took great pride intending to our table. I was a bit disappointed to learn that the hamburger sandwich I looked forward to was for reasons unknown, not available. The server stated they had run out, which for me was the first. So I settled on the roasted chicken and it was actually quite good, and my friend had the chicken salad that was also excellent and the restaurant was kind enough to offer my friend a scoop of vanilla ice cream to commemorate her birthday. I would not hesitate to return because this is an extremely well run restaurant with a top shelf staff. I absolutely recommend this restaurant.
