A hidden gem in a downtown San Carlos. I recently visited family in Belmont and they raved about Spasso. I instantly knew I had to go try it. We made reservations and we were promptly seated. My family has eaten at this restaurant many times so everyone knew them when we arrived. Our server Eddie was great! He gave us... More

Since the San Francisco Flower Show moved down to San Mateo, we have been searching for a place to have a drink and a good meal after the show. I think we found it. The food was good and reasonably priced and the wine list OK. It was a bit noisy on an early Friday evening as there were several... More

My husband and I dine at Spazzo frequently, so I thought it apprpriate to write a review. This is a neighborhood gem, where the food, wine, service and atmosphere are all excellent. The standing menu has a solid and delicious array of choices, and the specials are truly "special" - from seafood to lamb to risottos - all excellent! Spasso... More

Whenever we are anywhere near this restaurant we drop by for dinner. The food is excellent and always served hot. If there are 5 people in your group all of the food is served at the same time by 2 waiters. The veal dishes are the best I have ever had. More

My secretary picked this place for our office party. They menu prices seemed reasonable so I let everyone choose whatever they wanted off the menu vs choosing a set menu. We spent $850 for 15 people for 3 hours of cocktails and vast quantities of food. Everything was well prepared. The best was the service. So, unobstrustive. Before you even... More

Four of us had dinner at Spasso over the Fourth of July weekend and totally enjoyed our evening. We started the evening at Cask, a wine bar operated by Spasso's across the street, where we enjoyed wine and appetizers. We hadn't finished our wine when it was time to walk across the street but our waiter told us we could... More

Spasso is an excellent restaurant with great food and service. Ask to be seated in Marco's section and you will be treated like royalty. My favorites are the Hummus (apetizer) and the canelloni. The warm cabbage salad is also excellent. I am not a drinker but there's a good selection of wines (Spasso also operates a wine and cheese bar... More
