Panzano

Our first visit on 5280 Week, we were so excited.

It turned out to be an overpriced less than ordinary restaurant.

We were disappointed on the quality of the food, the look of the restaurant.

The portion size was the most disappointing of all the size of our entree and desserts were beyond sad... :(

I often choose Panzano's for a special lunch meeting with clients and have never been disappointed. The menu changes according to the seasons, the service is fast and thoughtful, and the atmosphere is quiet enough to have a meaningful conversation without being too quiet. Their roasted brussel sprouts appetizer is to-die for, and I nearly always order their grilled eggplant and goat cheese panini and leave with leftovers. Although I've never been there for dinner, I imagine it'd make a nice date-night destination.
