General Comments

The full-service restaurant Casa Vicente has easily managed to ascend and occupy the top spot of visited authentic Spanish restaurants in the North America continent, bar none.
Its name can be loosely translated as Vince's House or Vince's Place and it beckons the true atmosphere of Spain that has been faithfully replicated thanks to the highly polished and skilled urban development talents and qualifications of one of its owners. He and his younger brother have practically perfected the art of Spanish culinary dishes, and more specifically those succulent recipes from their Native city of Avila while simultaneously adding to their establishment's food fare an array of top-notch musical entertainment (such a international flamenco dancers and classical guitar players), as well as having added a wonderful pictorial touch to their awesome interior d cor via strategically positioned eclectic artwork for sale.
Casa Vicente's typical menu consists mainly of delicious tapas, great entrees, and mouth-watering desserts, with a tremendous selection of tasting possibilities. There are practically no bad choices here and the main dilemma is to know what goes better with what, or getting the optimal complimentary choices in terms of appealing to mild versus strong palates (Note: Spanish food is not the same as hot Mexican at all!).
In overall terms, one can honourably state that the portions are well measured and presented, the various served temperatures, sauces, and textures are extremely well achieved, and the prices charged are in line with their high level of service, cleanliness, ambiance, and genuine cultural effect (There is always time for the friendly political chat too.).
So, can't afford to go to Europe due to the dollar's current exchange rate? No problem! Take a trip to the Phoenix Metro Area and enjoy a one-day sightseeing tour down to Tucson, where Old Tucson still thrives, Catalina Mountains project majestically, and the gentleness and friendliness of the area peoples will draw you back for more.
