Sassi:
The essence of Old World charm

Sassi Combines Arizona’s breathtaking views with Old World architecture and the ambiance of a Southern Italian villa to deliver the perfect location for exchanging vows. The cuisine, furnishings and atmosphere at Sassi have been handcrafted to provide the ideal location for rehearsal dinners and weddings and delicious receptions in North Scottsdale.

Once a simple farmhouse, Sassi has been transformed over time as a premier event venue and destination restaurant that will leave your guests in awe. The garden lawn offers a romantic site for outdoor celebrations of up to 150 guests, who will marvel at the panoramic desert views. receptions can be held in one of five restaurant rooms, depending on the size of your party—the library is especially lovely. A private event room, suitable for larger celebrations, opens with an intimate foyer which leads to a warm space appointed with fireplaces and wood beamed ceilings. A covered patio offers beautiful views of Pinnacle Peak and the courtyard below.

While the aesthetics will please one and all, it is the cuisine that truly sets Sassi a world apart from other destinations. Executive Chef Peter De ruvo brings Italian flavors to the desert with his handmade pastas, fresh fish, pork and poultry cooked to perfection in the traditional southern Italian style. Customized menu offerings ensure that your guests are treated to a one-of-a-kind experience. Since Sassi is consistently rated as one of the most romantic restaurants in the Phoenix area, it seems fitting that it should also serve as host to some lovely wedding celebrations.

The staff at Sassi strives to bring a couple’s dreams to fruition, from specialty linens and entertainment options to recommendations for overnight accommodations for your guests. www.sassi.biz
