A collaboration between Experience Hospitality founder Bobby Werhane and Chef Craig Wallen (Lupa Trattoria, Convivio), Spasso serves authentic Italian food utilizing high-quality local and specially imported ingredients. The varied menu includes rustic fare such as hand rolled pastas, house cured meats, and flawlessly baked breads. Spasso (Italian for "amusement") is the perfect spot to enjoy a convivial atmosphere coupled with delicious food, excellent service and an exciting, well-edited wine and cocktail program developed by Bar Manager Fernando Leon and Head Bartender TJ Siegal.
With the same style and sensibility that she delivered in the rustic ambiance of dell'anima and the contemporary elegance of L'artusi, Brooke Maples has created an inviting, warm space with modern touches for Spasso. Utilizing natural colors and materials, such as reclaimed barn wood and hand pounded metal creates a laid-back environment perfect for enjoying dinner or simply indulging in artisanal wine and beer at the bar. With an open kitchen design, the entire 65-seat restaurant is warmed by the scent of hearty Italian ingredients and the light clang of cooking.
