I am a member of a large dinner club that tries different restaurants across valley. I have to say, Cucina Cucina was a pleasant surprise and I would highly recommend them. The waiter was attentive but not over bearing. He allowed us to enjoy the meal but never ran out of drinks or other desires. We had the shrimp appetizer and it was incredible. I had the Rigatoni, my wife had the Lobster Ravioli. The sauce on both dishes was perfect. Often times the sauce is too rich and cakey but this was not the case. Both dishes came out hot and appeared pleasing to the eye. I am a big eater and the serving size did not disappoint. I looked around the table and could see large helpings of each meal. There were 23 of us in all and not one complaint. If I want to be critical, the flour less chocolate cake was too rich for me, chocolate lovers at the table gladly helped it get consumed. They waiter handled the request for individual checks without complaint. We noticed the gratuity was added to each check. 18% seemed less than fair for his service. I think, had he told us the tip was included, he may have received more. I was very surprised at the small amount of patrons, Phoenix has an under utilized gem in this restaurant. Overall, I would highly recommend Cucina Cucina. Lastly, I wish the manager would have come by and introduced themselves so they could hear first hand our positive review.
