text: I thought the place was near perfect.  Our experience was flawless.  The service impeccable.  \n\nThings i loved about the place:  \nExcellent wine selection.  Not your normal everday average wines that most Phoenix/Scottsdale restaurants try to pawn off on us.  Well selected and nicely priced.  \n\nWe started off with the carpacio... it was beautiful.   Perfectly sliced. It was like butter in our mouths.  Simple, fresh,  high quality meat.  \n\nI had the mussles linguine in a white winegarlic sauce.  It was exquisite.    Just enough garlic to give it a spice and nothing overpowered the mussles.  Again... ingredients were fresh and of quality.  The pasta was perfetly cooked.\n\nFor desert.. the tiramisu.  YUMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! \n\nThe decor was great.  I felt it was a sincere attempt at fine dining while maintaining its personality.    The big round bar in the middle was elegant.. semi flashy but comforable.  The table where all well placed. There is a beautiful wine cellar with a special table for private dining.\n\nAnd of course, Mauricios genuinie hospitality embraces your table from time to time.  \n\nI'm glad to see a restaaurant of this caliber that is not owned by a major corporation  I consider this fine dinning with comfort.
