If you go to Spago the tasting menu is the only way to go, IMO. If you order a la carte most dishes we tried are overpriced for what you get.

Was there last week for lunch and had the 5 course tasting menu. I highly recommend going the tasting menu route as I have found that this is where Spago shines.

The amuses were delicious especially their tuna tartare in a sesame cone.

Favorite savory dish was toro and yellowtail sashimi.

Fave sweet/dessert was gingersnap gelato.
