About Gertrude's by Tarbell's

Gertrude’s by Tarbell’s is a popular, modern restaurant located near the entrance of the Desert Botanical Garden, often busy and lively. The restaurant features a light, airy atmosphere with a long bar on one side and windows on the other, offering both indoor and outdoor seating, including a spacious covered patio. Under the leadership of Chef Mark Tarbell, an Iron Chef winner, the menu offers gastropub-style dishes with Southwest flair, classic salads, tacos, burgers, and elevated dishes. Highlights include the Deviled Egg Salad Wraps, Caesar Salad, and Crispy Duck Confit Tacos, with the menu offering two duck confit dishes. The Tiger shrimp dish has been praised as one of the best meals in Scottsdale. The wine list is somewhat limited, with no bottles of red wine under $50, but the drinks, especially cocktails crafted by attentive bartenders like Ted, are highly recommended. Service is generally friendly and efficient, with some notes about challenges in getting drinks initially. The outdoor patio is loved for its vibe, though it can get warm later in summer without misters. Overall, Gertrude’s is appreciated for its great food, relaxing atmosphere, and excellent service, making it a top choice whether visiting the Desert Botanical Garden or looking for a nearby dining spot. Special touches like complimentary lemon meringue pie add to the memorable experience.

Chef Tarbell was so sweet, meeting several of the customers, helping out the staff. On top of that the food / wine was outstanding! Highly recommend Gertrude's and the Chef's new menu, definitely will be back

In May, my husband and I took a thrilling trip to Phoenix, Arizona, to see the Rolling Stones! It was our first road trip as newlyweds, and we were excited.

As a gardening maven in Phoenix, I suggested visiting the Cacti Botanical Garden. As dinner time rolled around, we decided to eat at the on-premise restaurant Gertrude's, expecting a pleasant dining experience with my husband and friends. Instead, we were met with some of the most appalling and outright racist treatment...read full review

Best food we’ve had the whole trip!
