    We celebrated my Mother's birthday and had a wonderful meal with the restaurant week menu. The short ribs and beef tenderloin were excellent. Do not miss the peach white chocolate bread pudding. It was decadent! So good!

    We have enjoyed dining here for years, especially during AZ Restaurant weeks. Our entrees of grilled pork tenderloin with blackberry balsamic glaze accompanied by fingerling potato salad was outstanding as was the blackberry cheesecake with salted caramel. A shout out to our waiter Fritz who was efficient, accommodating and fun! The only drawback was the level of noise.

    We were surprisingly delighted from the moment entered the restaurant till the time we left. The hospitality and service were the best we have experienced since moving to AZ. The food selection, presentation and flavors were terrific. Looking forward to our next visit!

    Rusconi’s is one of our “go to” places over many years. We’ve tried most everything on the menu and it is always fantastic. Service is personable and excellent. They consistently put out the complete package of it all - food, service, personal touch. It is a smaller place but we regard it as cozy, the table spacing is just fine for a wonderful private and evening. The place is busy- a testament to outstanding cuisine and service and pricing very reasonable. Haven’t tried it? You need to do so! Consistently great!

     Michael RUSCONI is my favorite chef. His imagination and creativity is continually expressed through the food that he serves. For example, this past weekend we took my wife Traci to Rusconi’s for Mother’s Day brunch. The menu he developed for the event included a shrimp snd lobster crabcake, his famous take on beef, short ribs, and a variation of his fsmous pork tenderloin. All were fantastic. The deconstructed smoked salmon plate was truly work of art.
