- BDBigDavevipDenver / Colorado •23 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoOur server was amazing! The $85 ribeye wasn’t an $85 steak, but it was delicious. The appetizers were all very nice, the green beans that accompanied the steak were superb! I tried the pork chop that my friend ordered and it was probably the best pork chop I’ve ever had! Ever! I didn’t mind sitting on the patio, but for $400 for 4 people I didn’t care for the picnic tables and bench seating. I would have expected tables and chairs at their price point. But overall it was most excellent and I’m looking forward to returning.More infoOcotilloPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown Phoenix•4.5
- DHDanielHvipOrlando / Central Florida East •17 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI was sad the pork parmigiana is off the menu - but it did force me to finally try something else. We had the Caesar, pork and veal meatballs, pork belly with the beans, Italian fries and the rigatoni. Everything was incredibly delicious as always. Drinks were tasty. Our server Eric was really great and made some great recommendations- I still didn’t make it to dessert!!!! I’ll have to take one home some time.More infoMora ItalianPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary Italian• North Central Phoenix•4.6
