Are you looking for that one place that has it all? Well, I found it at Spasso's. Spasso's has great food, friendly and attentive service, casual but hip atmosphere, an energetic martini bar, and weekend afterhours with karaoke and dancing, Spasso's offers all this without the crowds or high prices.\r

On the menu you will find tasty traditional italian dishes; my pick being the Lasagna, as well as extremely flavorful creations such as the 12 oz Flat iron steak with sauteed mushrooms and gorgonzola cheese served with choice of roasted veggies, pasta with your choice of sauce, or homemade roasted garlic mashed potatoes. And that's just one of many. If you can't find what you're looking for on the menu, tell the server what you want and they are happy to accomodate with suggestions or even your own personal creation. You really can't go wrong. Don't forget to save room for dessert. The homemade tiramisu is to die for!\r

Looking for a little night life. You have to check out Spasso's Friday and Saturday nights. Starting at 9:30 a great DJ shows up, the lights go down, and the restaurant transforms. There's a nice size dance floor, great music and karaoke (Fri only). Order a specialty martini from the Spasso's Blue Bar and pick out your favorite song to sing. They also serve appitizers till midnight.. I gaurantee you'll have a great time.\r
Date night at Spasso's? I'm in.\r

Spasso's is the hidden jewel of Orange County. But don't tell too many people, I'd hate to have to give up my favorite booth on Friday night.
