restaurants mesa or near - grad. dinner

Help!!! I need a restaurant for 12 people celebrating my graduation, next weekend. I live in California and spent a day wandering last december. I am considering Riazzi's (patio - hope it doesn't rain), Tempe, Tutti Santi Chandler, or Bavarian Point,Mesa. Graduation is in Mesa. I just noticed Citrus Cafe but do not know prices. Trying to keep it within a budget. Thanks for all your help Hurry the responses.

Hi! I've been to Riazzi's and Tutti Santi's and out of the two, I would for sure choose Riazzi's. The patio is gorgeous, and the atmosphere is really great. I always have a great time there. The food is good and priced really well, and there's more menu choice than Tutti. Tutti's is nice, but it's not really a "party" place. Hope it helps! ;)

Thanks for your input. I guess Bavarian point will be out of the running! sandy

Riazzi's was wonderful...food as well as service and the temp. on the patio was perfect for an early evening dinner. Only complaint was the lasagna was spicy. sandy
