    Food and service was awesome. We went for Sunday brunch, our first time trying this restaurant. Very clean and you can tell by watching the open kitchen that this is a well run restaurant. Everything is made from scratch, including the ketchup. We plan on going back for dinner next time. But I highly recommend the brunch menu.

    Tasty meal in an Eastern USA setting. The small restaurant is a g that we will return to. The salad was delicious. Beef medallions were trendy and mouth watering. Wait staff an A+. All in all a wonderful experience.

    One of the best restaurants in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area! We dine out more often than we eat at home, and our meals at Rusconi’s stand out as exceptional. We are consistently impressed by the special dishes the chef adds to the menu as well as our favorites (beef tenderloin with truffled Mac and cheese and green beans, salmon cooked to perfection with a blackberry glaze with brussel sprouts, exceptional premium aged beef). The fresh ingredients are top-notch and the flavor combinations are creative and delicious. The entire staff is extremely pleasant and friendly, enhancing our dining experience. Thank you for years of memorable meals!

    I love Ruconis and eat there once a year during my annual visit to Arizona. It is an excellent restaurant in all respects. This year I was anxious to try their Tomahawk Tuesday special. Unfortunately, although the giant steak looked wonderful, it wasn’t as tender or flavorful as I expected. I will continue to eat there, but will not order that steak again.
