“This was our second time dining here. We had a fantastic service team, thank you Noah, and staff. Great recommendations and your timing was excellent. The food,which was two different “pizzas”, was fantastic. The portions were generous and priced fairly. The live music was positioned on the outside patio which allowed a quieter indoor setting if desired. This place is really good.“

“We visited Blu Burger with our two kids last weekend, and it was delicious! We started out with the Crispy Brussels Sprouts- those were the best and even our 3yo loved them! I had the Metropolitan Burger and my husband had the Steakhouse Wagyu Burger, both so packed with flavor and each element complimented the next. Our kids each enjoyed a build your own kids burger and they loved the sweet potato fries. The service was excellent- we were well taken care of our whole visit. We will definitely be back soon!“

“We love coming here for breakfast! It’s a little trek from Peoria but totally worth it. Every single crepe is absolutely excellent! Today we had the yin and yang and a couple savory ones too! Very delicious. The bagel breakfast sandwich is my favorite because they make the bacon just right. Both hot and cold coffee are always a hit too, especially the white chocolate. All the girls this morning were working so hard and were so busy yet still extremely welcoming and communicative! Thank you guys ❤️“

“Best Steelers bar in the world!“

“The Organic Bread Cafe is a hidden gem! You can really taste the difference that 'homemade' makes; the bread has the perfect crust and a soft, airy center. We come here specifically for the sandwiches, which are always packed with flavor. You can tell they use top-tier organic ingredients. 10/10 recommendation!“

“Friendly, delicious and timely. I love this place!“

“Such a cute brunch spot! Pastries are amazing and the food is delicious! Specialty coffees are so cute and wonderful selection. My go to spot for sure!“

“Even without sampling the food on this latest visit, it’s clear why this place remains one of the area’s most consistently buzzing destinations. The energy alone tells the story—tables filled, glasses clinking, and a steady rhythm of conversation that signals a spot beloved by locals and visitors alike. The drinks program continues to impress. Wines are well-selected, offering both dependable varietals and intriguing pours for those who enjoy exploring beyond the usual. Cocktails are balanced and thoughtfully executed—nothing overwrought, just smartly made and enjoyable. Service matches the standard: efficient, friendly, and tuned in without hovering. The only recurring frustration lies in the seating—finding a comfortable spot, especially with a party larger than two, can feel like winning a small lottery. Still, once seated, it’s easy to see why so many linger well into the evening. Bottom Line: A go-to destination for happy hour and casual wine gatherings. Excellent drinks, a convivial crowd, and lively ambiance—just be prepared to wait a bit for that perfect table. Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) – Exceptional drinks and atmosphere; minor seating woes keep it from perfection.“

“Great good! Emma was the Best! Great live music, listening to Arizona Ave.“

“Always a pleasure coming to JJ's. The staff is super friendly, the deli is immaculate, and the food has been great every time we've been here. Came in this morning for a late breakfast and noticed that they had Italian Wedding soup today, so we ordered our breakfast and got some soup to go... Fast forward to late lunch/early dinner... HOLY COW, do yourself a favor and get this whenever they have it! Such good flavor and a bit of zing.“

“I can’t say enough about the Papa Murphy’s on Cave Creek and Tatum. Fast and fresh at a great price, and the owners are all about going above and beyond in customer service. I have never had anything short of an exceptional experience, even the kids they hire get it, and are excellent employees. We make our weekly visit every Tuesday for $10 pies.“

“This has become one of my favorite local places to eat. 1) Breakfast all day! 2) The food is ALWAYS fresh and prepared well 3) The staff are very friendly and professional.“

“Located a mile from the Four Seasons Scottsdale, there aren’t a lot of good options around Troon. SWAN delivers excellent and fresh sushi. Owned by a Japanese couple, they maintain excellent standards and prices are more than fair.

Full bar and Sapporo on draft for $7.

Nice outdoor terrace with plenty of heaters.

Overall, excellent sushi restaurant with other options including miso black cod, noodles and chicken.“

“Nick's is my goto Italian restaurant. There are a lot of Italian restaurants in Scottsdale but Nick's stands out because of the consistency and classic Italian entrees. Their gnocchi is the best I've had outside of Italy. My favorite entrees are the veal picatta, Marcela and parmasean.

Their tiramasu is the best I've had anywhere.“

“This has been my go-to Starbucks since I moved here last year. I’ve always had great service and a lovely experience.
The staff here go above and beyond.
Today, I accidentally placed my mobile order to a former favorited location in my app- all the way in a different state. The manager (or owner?) here made my drink complimentary when it was my mistake. Those little things go a long way to really make customers feel valued and I appreciate what the team here!“

“Our son is here visiting and loves Mexican food. We took him to dinner at Jalapeño Inferno and it was a great experience. Both the food and service were excellent and the atmosphere very nice. We'll be dining there again and we highly recommend it.“

“Had a nice lunch on a Saturday and the highlight was our server, Aubrey. She was solo bartender, server & hostess. Acknowledged us right away even though she didn't see us walk in because she was in the kitchen picking up other orders. Professional, prompt and attentive service. Two thumbs up for Aubrey.“

“OMG. The best food ever. Lovely Owner. I highly recommend. ❤️❤️❤️ love you Gigi“

“Love the Caramelizer and the rebels.“

“I recently dined at Ofenda Mexican Grill, and it was great from start to finish! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. The service was top-notch; our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Even during a busy evening, we never felt rushed.
Overall, a 5-star experience! If you’re craving authentic Mexican flavors in a fun setting, Ofrenda is a must-visit.“

“fresh food everyday, polite on point service“

“As the second time we have gone to the restaurant, I can say that both times were a great experience. The ambience was nice, the food was delicious, and the white staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely be attending the restaurant again soon!“
