Our Serbia Kaia was outstanding, she provided excellent customer service. All 4 meals we had were excellent. We had a nice booth which made it much easier to talk to each other. We are never disappointed with Spassos

We heard about this place from TV. Made reservations and drove from South Metro. Were seated at a strange shaped table. The fans were on high. We asked to move and we had to switch waiters. The new one was not interested in being at work at all. Very disappointed and tired of mediocre food and service around the Twin Cities.
