I live in the North Valley and made the trek to Central Phoenix to give Restaurant Progress a try. To say the least, I was not disappointed! Finally a spot that doesn't have a massive menu filled with the same ole, same ole. The spot is cozy with warm, fresh decor that makes you feel warm and inviting with great music playing in the background that was not too loud that set the tone for a great meal. I highly recommend starting with a mixed drink professionally mixed by a skilled mixologist. Every dish I had was very fresh and prepared with care with spot on presentation and delicious. I would recommend anyone to venture out of your comfort zone and try some of the foods that you wouldn't ordinarily try as this is not your ordinary fare. Great spot to bring your special someone!
