“Awesome food, great patio, awesome beer display and selection, creative wine program. Very fun vibe. The staff was great. Will be back!”
“Another great experience last evening. Food and beverages were phenomenal as always (shrimp cocktail, yellowtail sashimi, steaks, sides). Our server, Taylor Guzik, was fabulous...knowledgeable, friendly, attentive...an absolute delight! Many thanks Taylor for the Anniversary deserts...decadent!! We always sit in the bar area to listen to and appreciate the fine musicians. Last night was no exception. Renee Patrick, Nicole Pesce and their drummer were as good as it gets. Many thanks!!!!!!”
“I would recommend everything about this restaurant. Your experience starts with the staff at the front, everyone is on point and attentive. I didn’t see a single time that the wait and floor staff left the area without seeking eye contact from other diners. Then ….. the kitchen. Watching during a mid-service rush, you will see the calm energy that only comes from a great team culture. Everyone focused on each and every detail. Nothing goes out that doesn’t meet the team’s high standards. This kind of brigade can only come from one thing. The Chef….. Cory Oppold has always led by example. He showed everyone how deep his character was during the “Sack Lunch” and In-Home dining year. I don’t think there is anyone I would rather work beside in a kitchen than Chef Cory. The Food…… Every component adding to the story… some whispers, some screams…… taunting, flirting, enticing the culinary listener to turn the page in anticipation. Beautiful food that is as exciting to taste as it is to look at…… winner winner Squab, John Dory, and Steak dinner!! You owe it to yourself to go experience Team Oppold in action, you will never be the same again”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“I just spent my first time going to Ocean 44 and I must say, this is one of the best restaurants I had ever been to. When I took my wife there they really took care of us. Any questions we had about the menu they made sure they walked us through the whole menu so knew how everything works. They took care of us just as good as being at a life loan Doctors office. I definitely recommend this place and especially to take your date to.”
“We received a box of croissants as a gift from Andreoli Italian Grocer. The box itself was a masterpiece featuring the acclaimed Chef Giovanni Scorzo, showcasing the delectable items inside. These croissants melt in your mouth like a sweet delight when prepared correctly. If you’re looking for something extraordinary, I highly recommend this as a gift.”

“Amazing, unique, satisfying….. we loved it. The well curated menu made for a great meal to celebrate a milestone. My wife and I celebrated our 22nd Anniversary with Shinji Kurita and his team. It was a dining experience where each dish was served with specific intention and we enjoyed every bite. The presentation and personal touch provided for each course was memorable. We highly recommend it.”
“So cute & clean. The food is always delicious. Breakfast burrito is my favorite one ever.”
“This is the finest Italian restaurant in Phoenix area and I have been coming here for spring break for 20 years and I will be back for the rest of my wife The ambience, service from Marcos impeccable and I felt for first time I was in Roma without flying 9 hours Marcellino the James Beard is a gem”
“If your any kind of vendor, stay way clear they are flakes and do NOT pay bills.”
“We were there on a school field trip. We learned about keeping horses, medieval oaths, and how jousting went in the old days. Great time!! My throat still hurts from screaming TEAM RED!!!!”
“Visiting friends from out of town, we had great food, wine and service! We had a great experience. Chris made it extra special. Thank you again!”

“Phenomenal experience. Location, ambiance, food and service were nothing less than spectacular. Everything was outstanding. The food was exquisite and the service was incredible. The atmosphere of the restaurant is lovely and would make anyone’s dining experience even more enjoyable. This is by far one of the best dining experiences we have ever had.”

“First time visiting YC’s in Tempe. The Food was great with a large selection of veggies and sauce. The employees were very friendly and went above and beyond helping us. The manager was very friendly also and spent some time talking with us about our home state of Alaska. We now live just outside Casa Grande and would love a YC’s Mongolian bbq in Casa Grande area. There is nothing like this in our area.”

“Great sports bar with a good selection of food. There are tons of TVs, making it an excellent place to watch sports. Both the indoor and outdoor seating areas offer plenty of space, so it never feels too crowded. Overall, a fun spot to grab a meal, enjoy a drink, and catch the game.”
“Having dined here several times, I can confidently say this restaurant continues to impress where it matters most — the food. Each visit reaffirms its standing as a place that knows how to deliver bold, authentic flavors and a well-balanced dining experience. On my most recent visit, every dish from our table was spot-on, beautifully prepared, and deeply satisfying. The kitchen remains the restaurant’s strongest asset — consistently turning out vibrant, flavorful plates that celebrate Italian cuisine without pretense. The cocktails arrived promptly and were well-crafted, setting the tone for an enjoyable meal. The wine list deserves a special nod: it offers a thoughtful selection of Italian wines that are both excellent and reasonably priced — a rarity that regulars will appreciate. Ambiance can vary depending on the night. At times, the tables feel a bit tightly packed, and the noise level can climb higher than comfortable. This visit, however, was more balanced — the addition of live music created a warm, convivial atmosphere, and conversation flowed easily. Service, unfortunately, remains the restaurant’s weakest link. Our server spoke so quickly that explanations about the menu were rushed and unclear, and attention throughout the meal was uneven. While this lack of polish doesn’t overshadow the exceptional kitchen, it does detract from what could otherwise be a near-perfect dining experience. In short, come for the food — it’s worth it. The culinary team continues to deliver excellence on the plate, making this a restaurant that earns repeat visits. But with a bit more focus on service refinement, it could elevate from “very good” to truly outstanding. Bottom Line: ⭐ Food: 9/10 – Consistently excellent, authentic, and flavorful 🍷 Drinks: 8.5/10 – Strong cocktails and a well-priced Italian wine list 🎶 Ambiance: 8/10 – Lively, sometimes loud, but charming with live music 💁 Service: 6.5/10 – Rushed and inattentive; room for improvement 💰 Overall Value: 8.5/10 – Excellent food at fair prices Verdict: Go for the cuisine — and hope the service soon matches the kitchen’s brilliance.”
“Even when slammed, this place knocks it out of the park EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I’ve never once been disappointment in the food, friendliness of the staff, or quality of service.”

“If you are lucky enough to get here when they have pistachio cannolis you should definitely get one for yourself, not to share. The most delicious little treat! Lightly sweet and a perfect filling wrapped in a nice crispy crust! Phenomenal! If you want to have a dance party on your taste buds get one!!”
“I Eat Breakfast There Every. Single. Day. They Make Me My Favorite Dish 'Huevos Con Tomate'. Always Made Fresh. Always Served Hot. The Staff Is Extremely Friendly Especially The GM 'Jay' Who Seems To Remember Everyone's Name Who Walks Through His Door. One More Thing, Since September I Have Lost 25lbs Sticking With This Place And That Dish. My Name Is Rick Robbins And I Am #TheCushionKing”
“My daughter brought the grandkids over and we went to the park. Afterwards we all went to McDonald's to get lunch and let the kids explore the playground. Alas, the playground was closed for some maintenance. We ate, and as always the service and food were great. There is quite a variety of food choices at price points to fit anyone's budget. The kids were disappointed about the playground but we had a great lunch and a great family time together.”
“Wonderful food and the presentation was amazing! Servers were very friendly and make sure you have what you need, even boxed our food for us! Ps save room for dessert the cannolis and the pumpkin cheesecake were delicioussss”

“Mascara Taco Shop has my whole heart! I keep coming back again and again, and honestly, that says it all. My go-to order is the rolled tacos with the side fries in the bowl — every single time it hits just right. What keeps me loyal isn’t just the food, it’s the consistency. I know exactly what I’m getting every visit, and it never disappoints.
Being family-owned makes such a difference — you can feel the love and care they put into everything they serve. I genuinely appreciate this place and the people behind it. If you haven’t tried Mascara Taco Shop yet, do yourself a favor and go. You’ll see why regulars like me never stop coming back!”
“We brought my daughter here for her 18th birthday. We had the lamb vindaloo, chicken tikki masala, and chicken biryani. The chicken biryani was delicious and spicy. It was my favorite. The other two were very good. I didn’t love the vegetable samosas- they were very dense.We also didn’t love the desserts. However, the garlic naan was amazing. Our server was super attentive and helpful. It was a fun find. However, the atmosphere was a tad more casual than I expected.”
“The spring rolls were so fresh and the sauce...their homemade sweet &sour sauce sprinkled with peanuts, was amazing. Got the Gai Kua, waiter’s recommendation, over my usual Pad Se Ew and so glad I went with this. The flavors are like a party in your mouth. Also tasted the Shrimp and asparagus special, equally as good. And the portions...very generous! Wish I would have had room to try the mango and sticky rice...next time!”

“We stumbled upon this place while visiting Scottsdale. What a great experience. The food and service were excellent. The chopped salad, meatloaf, and salmon were all delicious. Our server was friendly and knowable about the menu. Made great recommendations and even let us try the famous salad. We will be back during our stay and any future stays.”
“Absolutely fantastic. Truly a hidden gem. Off beat motel setting opening into a delightful bar area and resturant. Service is great. Food is inventive and delicious. The chef is charming. One of the best meals in Arizona! Tasting menu is a lot of fun. And ALOT of food. And the cocktails are expertly made as well.”
“Service was outstanding considering a Friday nite and fully packed restaurant ! Quick and efficient service. Ribeye and fries fantastic. Ribs a bit undercooked but with sauce, it was nice. Hoping to have a glass of frangelica liqueur but not available. Shall return soon.”
“found out about The Stand about a month before my trip to Tempe and I've been thinking about it nearly everyday since. Made it there minutes before they closed today. I was expecting to be let down - nothing can live up to those expectations! But they exceeded it by miles! Bad thing is I only get to this area once a year!”
“Our favorite place since moving to Scottsdale! Authentic, charming interior, classy and the food is amazingly delicious! The Management and staff set the tone for the experience of dining here. Rentu (spelling ?) the General Manager delightful and personable and Cody our server for Christmas Eve dinner, superb. 5 stars all the way!”
“Anytime me and my husband come to town we make it a point to visit Postino (Highland) as often as possible! They have amazing gluten free bruschetta boards and paninis! Great food for a great deal. The servers have always been incredibly friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to come back the next time we are in town.”
“First time dining at Uchi. Wow! Amazing food and beautifully prepared. Every bite was a delicious morsel.”
“Relaxed vibe with great food and solid service overall. The pork belly and grits stole the show since it was so good and perfectly cooked that it basically outshined everything else on the table.”

“Indulge in one of their amazing cocktails, choose the octopus for the first course, and enter dreamland from there. Last night was the latest A++ dinner where everything was done perfectly, and danced on our tastebuds like magic. A very special place, and there’s a reason why people are inspired to exclaim ‘best meal ever’. Life is short, go this week, Highly recommended.”
“Had a truly excellent experience yesterday for brunch on the patio. It started with the hostess seating us which was very professional and courteous. Alexis was our server and she was amazing. Found out during the end of our meal that she had only been working there for two days. She was as knowledgeable and professional as she could be. She checked back numerous times to see if we needed anything. The brunch burger was amazing. So many flavors inside one bun! The Bloody Mary’s were spot on! We dont live here but if we did this would be a regular spot for brunch, business dinners or just a great date night! In todays world of lousy service and subpar service, this place is a shining star!!!!!”
“I have found a legitimate broker who has helped me in so many ways in the aspect of forex & cryptocurrency. At first, I was really skeptical that it won't work but I still kept the faith going until I saw a recommendation about Mrs Craig Vanessa who changed my financial status from grass to grace. Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year. If you are looking for a change in your finances, then connect to Mrs. Craig Vanessa today on WhatsApp through Facebook via Mrs Craig Vanessa”
“The sourdough and whipped ricotta w/ honey was amazing!! The Branzino was very good and the pistachio cheesecake is hard to beat. We had two great bottles of wine that were half of on Thursdays.
Everyone was very nice but they definitely seemed understaffed. We waited about 5 minutes at the front before someone finally checked us in, they person who seemed to be filling the waters kept passing our table and we had to flag down the hostess to get more water. Also, personally, I am not a fan of restaurants that allow non-service dogs to be in the main indoor dining areas.
Overall, this place had great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Just seems to need more staff during restaurant week.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Ends and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Here are some highlights of my visit: Ambiance: The restaurant boasts a warm, inviting atmosphere that perfectly balances elegance and comfort. The tasteful décor, soft lighting, and pleasant background music created an environment that was both relaxing and sophisticated. Service: The service was impeccable. From the moment we walked in, the staff was attentive, friendly, and professional. We were seating at the bar and our bartender was knowledgeable about the menu, provided excellent recommendations, and ensured that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. The timing of each course was perfect, and we never felt rushed Food: The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the food. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. We started with a few appetizers which was a delightful blend of fresh ingredients. Overall Experience: The Ends exceeded our expectations in every way. The combination of excellent food, outstanding service, and a delightful ambiance made for a memorable dining experience. Thank you and we can’t wait for our next visit”
“I was here for my birthday 8/25/24 with my girlfriend. It was an absolute delight! I had the grass fed ribeye, medium well, and it was probably the best steak I've ever had. That's saying a lot for a guy living and being from Chicago. The ambience was top notched and the customer service was great! I can't wait until I'm back in AZ, I will definitely return here. This is a 5 star restaurant. -Marcus”
“First time in. WOW! It was amazing. Beautiful spot with a great patio. Had Scallop Crudo, Foie Gras, Octopus and Strawberry-Marzipan Shortbread. All beautifully plated and delicious! Nice bar and excellent wine program; I had an excellent glass of Grand Cru Riesling from Alsace France. Service was excellent; professional and friendly. Owner May even stopped by. Impressive! Can't wait to visit next time in AZ!”
“Everything is incredible here! Jonathon was a wonderful host for the Garden Spritz Lunch Event, and Jason from Bacardi added unique info and insights into all the creative drink offerings. Please offer more of these, especially a bourbon offering in October!”
“My experience at the Lincoln Steakhouse and Bar was phenomenal. We sat at the bar where Jonathan, Wayne, and Ricky provided excellent service, delicious cocktails, and wealth of knowledge about the restaurant and resort history. When they learned of a set of birthdays in our group they presented a complimentary surprise which really cemented their service and attention to detail. 5 stars and 10/10 recommend the Bar at Lincoln Steakhouse!”
“We enjoyed the atmosphere, even though we did not have reservations we were seated within 10 min. The wait staff (Wolfe and Cayden) were very courteous and professional. The food was outstanding, we particularly enjoyed the tuna tartar appetizer, but everything else (grouper, salmon, mushrooms) was delicious. I mentioned it was my wife's birthday, and they brought out a beautiful little Signature Butter Cake. This was a wonderful dining experience for us, we will we back!”
“Excellent Customer service! The owner Mitchell Fox is a class act. Definitely my go to business for all of my Cigars. Look forward to visiting his Lounge when I am in Arizona. I hear it's the best.”
“Absolutely fantastic. Truly a hidden gem. Off beat motel setting opening into a delightful bar area and resturant. Service is great. Food is inventive and delicious. The chef is charming. One of the best meals in Arizona! Tasting menu is a lot of fun. And ALOT of food. And the cocktails are expertly made as well.”

“Absolutely LOVE this neighborhood hangout ... and it's not even IN my neighborhood! Locally brewed beers (even nonalcoholic rootbeer) on tap; Mythic Goat's amazing coffees; a fabulous deli; kitchen producing paninis, fresh-baked croissants, and killer cheese/salume boards ... I could go on!! They have Trivia nights, the locals do Game Nights (Mexican Train Dominoes are the current obsession); there are wine tastings ... I DRIVE to come here several times a week.”
“Had to check this place out after seeing it on the TV. We were not disappointed. we had the chicken strips with sweet potato tots.Such fantastic tasting food. Will definitely be here again. And the owner seems like such a great guy.We had great conversation.”
“I’m not one to post about my restaurant experiences (this is my first review), but I have to tell you about Liz Modern Asian. The owners are charming and welcoming, setting me up for a wonderful meal and experience that didn’t expect.
The food was deliciously made to order, and the quality of the ingredients and the value was unbelievable! My favourites were the Chinese Chicken Salad with Walnut Shrimp, and the Shrimp Special Noodle with garlic! The noodles, especially, while so simple, reminded me of the noodles my mom used to make when I was growing up. They had me at noodles.
Other reviewers are right - this is a place worth visiting, and the owners know how to treat their customers making them feel like their invited guests. I’m not from the Phoenix area, but I will be back in the short time I’m here, as they went far above what I’ve ever experienced in a first visit to a restaurant!
Well done!”
“I love this coffe place, the ambient is unique! My only suggestion is to add some healthy balanced dishes to the menu...I will not have somewhere else for food. I enjoyed their orange juice and coffee.
A note about customers: I noticed a few dog owners with their dogs coming in. It is an outdoor setting, but still watch out for dog allergies if you have them acute. I cannot tolerate dogs inside the house, but outside I am ok.”
“A big shout out to Urban Cookies Bakeshop! We ordered 120 cupcakes for my daughter’s wedding and they were beautiful and delicious! Everyone raved about them! It was easy to order them and were well boxed. Everyone was so wonderful to work with. Highly recommend them!! Thank you for making her wedding a great day!!!!”
“I've been to many coffee shops in town and this place has the best coffee/lattes/matcha in town.. it's super smooth, easy on the stomach and the coffee beans packs a punch if ur needing to get stuff done!! If you're looking for finest lattes in the land this is your place!”
“Our favorite place since moving to Scottsdale! Authentic, charming interior, classy and the food is amazingly delicious! The Management and staff set the tone for the experience of dining here. Rentu (spelling ?) the General Manager delightful and personable and Cody our server for Christmas Eve dinner, superb. 5 stars all the way!”
“LAMP is simply the best wood fired pizza in the valley. It’s exceptional.”

“We visited for lunch today and it was absolutely wonderful! The prices are unbeatable and the quality is outstanding! I’m a big guy and I could not even finish my meal, but it’s going to make for a great night snack tonight lol”
“Found you all the way from Canada! Our client praised you for the delivery fresh and hot, right on time. I hope we will one day come down personally to taste the incredible food!”
“Unique atmosphere. The food was amazing.. great veggie options. Service impeccable. Special Thanks to our server Noah and busboy Mike”
“My husband and I went there for the first time last week and had the most delicious meal! By far my favorite Italian restaurant in the area”
“I first heard about Yasuo Sushi as I was a big fan of Sushi Vibe in Uptown Phoenix plaza, which I think is owned by the same people and they advertised Yasuo on the shared menu. Once I moved to Scottsdale, Yasuo was much more convenient.
My family and I love their sushi, beer, rock shrimp, spicy edamame, etc. When my parents visit, they always want to go to this place at least once, if not more.
The beers are large, so good for sharing. The rock shrimp has the perfect amount of sauce and spice drizzled on. And you really cannot beat the lunch deals/prices or the happy hour prices. Service has always been very fast and good. All employees always are hard at work and very pleasant.
You may have to wait for a short time if it is busy, but never for very long. Parking can be challenging at times in the plaza, but eventually you’ll find one, might just have to walk a bit.”
“We have been eating at Ajo Al's for years. The food is consistently good and served promptly. We typically sit at the bar and the service from Oscar R has been outstanding. He is engaging and makes the dining experience excellent.”
“We brought my daughter here for her 18th birthday. We had the lamb vindaloo, chicken tikki masala, and chicken biryani. The chicken biryani was delicious and spicy. It was my favorite.

“A perfect “hole in the wall” Italian joint. The food is delicious. The service is good and very friendly staff. Love the down to earth attitude. Try the Stromboli with added onion and peppers. Poetry in da mouth.”
“We enjoyed a fabulous dinner at the chef’s tasting table. Each course was amazing, service was exceptional and the overall experience was A+. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something a little different in a beautiful setting.”
“Smooth jazz was super relaxing and very sweet bartender, Amera, was so helpful in telling us the most cost effective ways to get the wines we wanted to try! Highly recommend”
“Simple yet amazing!!! Me and my family had a wonderful experience for lunch today. From the appetizers to the lunch meal, you couldn’t go wrong with anything you ordered! One of the best meals I’ve had since being here.”
“Excellent drinks, the service was top notch and menu is varied, sophisticated, and delicious.”
“Update....
It's been 3 years of great food and amazing experiences with everyone who works at this gem of a place in Scottsdale. Tonight we got to enjoy Georgia (again) in the bar area for Happy Hour and she is always the most positive ray of sunshine! ☀️ The perfect end to our week. The Limoncello martini is always refreshing as is the Tangerine Dream that my hubby loves. But the blackened salmon HH tacos and oysters are out-of-this-world!! Can't wait to go back more often to see Georgia during the summer months! 💛🐟🐠💙☀️
3 years ago:
Our first time here! We were so excited to try something new and new it all really was! The first thing you'll notice is when you walk in, it's a little escape from the desert to a seaside location (LOVE!). The soothing colors and assorted decor of the restaurant gave this desert girl a buzz of interest. I was immediately in a happy mood. Georgia was our server in the bar high-top tables and she was so pleasant to work with. She was attentive, kind, great at recommendations, and a willingness to make sure all was made to order. We had the ahi ceviche (YUM), the grilled artichoke, and the fish stew for our dinner. All was spiced perfectly, cooked perfectly, and looked amazing on our plates. We also had a chance to meet Robert, the manager, who gave us some great background about the restaurant. How lucky are we in Scottsdale to have such a fantastic California gem here? We will be back again and again and again! The hosts are so welcoming and upbeat...you'll feel amazing from the moment you step in the door!
Cheers!”
“Awesome food and excellent wait staff, shout out Todd! This was my family's first couple of visits here, one was a larger group celebrating a bday dinner, and another for a small number for brunch, and the ambience was awesome each time. The next move is patio dining, looks like a Gorj type of scene & great place for cocktails & such. We SHALL RETURN...good job Los Sombreros, let's get it!! 😃”
“Classy spot that focuses right in the center of Old Town. Great spot to have a few drinks, go on a date, or even just to stop in while having a walk in the park!”
“We hosted a fabulous 30 person birthday dinner at the Oliver and everything about the evening was perfect! First and most importantly, everyone’s food was delicious and our guests couldn’t stop talking about the evening…how wonderful the service was, the great vibe and the fabulous food. I cannot recommend the Oliver enough for a night out and/or a private event. We’ve done both now and each visit has been over the top great. Highly recommend!”
“I was very impressed with the unique offerings at this quaint, out of the way eatery; the menu appears to have something for just about everyone. We stopped by for lunch this week which was the first visit for both of us. I ordered one of the Vegan options and my lunch companion ordered the new French Dip, both dishes were exceptional and the service could not have been better. Of all the new restaurant finds I have come across over the past few years, this place tops my list. Looking forward to my next visit, there are so many unique menu options I am eager to try!”
“Enjoyed lunch today, from bruschetta to marinara parmigiana everything was delicious. Server Morgan S was friendly and helpful. Worth the trip from east valley!”
“My mom made reservations for us at noon, and when it reached 12:15, we still had not had a server acknowledge us or take our drink orders so we waved the first one we saw over. She apologized profusely and took our drink orders even though she was not our waitress. She said she would find out what the issue was immediately. When she returned with our drinks, she apologized again and said there was a miscommunication and our server would be over momentarily. When our actual waiter came over, he also apologized multiple times and was very pleasant. He took our order and was very polite and conversational. When he served us our food, he also brought an additional appetizer (one that I had already eyeballed on the menu but decided against… the melon salad) as an apology for our wait. We had already forgiven him, but this went above and beyond and we were very impressed with the impeccable customer service.
We ordered the filet mignon skewers, served with Mediterranean rice and lentils with a side of chimichurri. It was PHENOMENAL. The flavor blew me away. We also ordered the spicy olive hummus which was also exceptional. And the melon salad that he comped was absolutely delicious.
I wish I remembered our servers name! We were there on 4/6/26 at noon, and we sat in the outdoor area.
Kudos to Pinyon and its staff for making what could have been a disappointing experience into an exceptional one!”
“We were greeted with friendliness when we walked in the door. The items on the menu were diverse and creative, with a mix of more standard fare. The food was delicious with an enjoyable mix of seasoning and well cooked fare. The wait was appropriate for the cuisine. A wholly pleasing experience.”
“Not sure what to say other than everything was stellar. Beautiful night, superb food, and fantastic services. Top Notch all the way around. Great for a special occasion.”
“My husband and I love this place . Everything from the salads, meatballs, pizza, soup is all very good . We travel to AZ very often to watch our daughter play softball. I am very sad and disappointed though. I had a pair of AirPod pros that had fallen out of my purse about a month ago . I didn’t realize this . I pushed the find my device and it said they were at Pomos . Two young men said ohh ya we have them they have been here forever . They descried them to me . I said yes those are mine . Then upon getting them out of the bin discovered they were no longer there . Sad that employees are the only ones with access to lost items therefore it had to be an employee take them . They were a gift from my husband so makes me very sad and disappointed.”
“Went here on my lunch break. Hubby picked it out. Glad he did! Great service, best burger ever! And the Coleslaw! Amazing!”
“Looooved it! Nice atmosphere, great tasting food, wine and fresh challot!! Todah Achim!”
“The atmosphere is great. They got a great staff, the food oh my God is so delicious I highly recommend this restaurant if you are traveling from Texas to Arizona. You need to stop here I highly recommend it. I give it 5 star.”
“had a blast hanging here for our girls bach!! went crazy for the eagles and they fully supported it! kaitlynn was our server and from the start we said she was great and it just got better! she deserves a raise. great atmosphere and great staff! GO BIRDSSS”
“We had went for Valentine's pre fix menu which was very reasonable. The decorations were awesome with all the balloons and a photo both that was a nice touch.”
“We were driving back to West Valley and came across this place. Glad we stopped...best hollandaise...EVER! The food was excellent, the staff were attentive and kind. Jessa was our server...very sweet person. We will be back!!”
“Fantastic food! They are on Resy which is really nice for Amex card holders. Love the Chicken Tikka Tacos and the Samosa chaat- the apps are great! Highly recommend.”
“Comfort food don't get any better than this. Big portions, services are over the top, leave with a full stomach and a smile.”
“Toscana was a great experience for our party of 6. The ambience was quiet and elegant. The service was excellent and timely. The food was very good and very well prepared. The menu was varied, but a bit limited. The wine and the wine list were excellent. This is a higher end restaurant for Scottsdale and highly recommended.”
“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.”
“I had such a great experience at Curries! The food is incredibly authentic and full of flavor, every dish tasted fresh, rich, and thoughtfully prepared. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients, and everything we tried was absolutely delicious.
The service was just as impressive; friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing. It made the whole experience even better. The drinks were also fantastic and paired perfectly with the meal.
This is definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you’re looking for amazing Indian food!”
“The food was so tasty & delicious! The best garlic naan there is ! ? My new favorite Indian spot ! definitely worth the drive ! I ordered a strawberry margarita & it was one of the best drinks I’ve had in a while!”
“I've been here a couple of times before for a slice. It was good,not amazing nothing to write home about but a decent slice. Today I went in and noticed they had hotdogs. Got damn these people have perfected the hotdog. I know where to go to get a good dog. Portillos has a good dog. Detroit Coney has a great dog as well but this is something different. Its a tiny pizza place in a shopping center that should be named hotdogs not ipizza.”
“My husband and I had a lovely time on our first dining experience tonight at Zum Treffpunkt! Schnitzel was amazing! Bonus, our server Melanie (who was amazing) is from the same town as me in Germany! 🇩🇪💕”
“Indulge in one of their amazing cocktails, choose the octopus for the first course, and enter dreamland from there. Last night was the latest A++ dinner where everything was done perfectly, and danced on our tastebuds like magic. A very special place, and there’s a reason why people are inspired to exclaim ‘best meal ever’. Life is short, go this week, Highly recommended.”
“I goofed! The bartender who makes a great Cosmo IS hector! My mistake still a great drink.”
“Service was outstanding considering a Friday nite and fully packed restaurant ! Quick and efficient service. Ribeye and fries fantastic. Ribs a bit undercooked but with sauce, it was nice. Hoping to have a glass of frangelica liqueur but not available. Shall return soon.”

Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year.

“Amazing food and drinks! Taco Monday is a must! Great vibes. Elise won’t let you down!”
“Muito bom e original. Aconselho vivamente. Parabéns. Espero que tenham sucesso.”
“Went for my birthday and my mother's birthday it was very busy but even though it was busy everyone took care of us all the servers were great and the gauchos we're amazing they listened to all of our requests and got them out as fast as they could thank you fogo de Chao for an amazing experience”
“The sourdough and whipped ricotta w/ honey was amazing!! The Branzino was very good and the pistachio cheesecake is hard to beat. We had two great bottles of wine that were half of on Thursdays.
Everyone was very nice but they definitely seemed understaffed. We waited about 5 minutes at the front before someone finally checked us in, they person who seemed to be filling the waters kept passing our table and we had to flag down the hostess to get more water. Also, personally, I am not a fan of restaurants that allow non-service dogs to be in the main indoor dining areas.
Overall, this place had great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Just seems to need more staff during restaurant week.”
“Fabulous welcome, sushi, sake and service! First visit but we will definitely be back! We had the Gyoza, Salmon Carpaccio, the OMG roll and the Sex and the City Roll. All were delicious. While we were waiting we were treated to a taste of the chefs special. Really good!”
“incredible food, helpful front desk, the young man was very friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. I was feeling under the weather so we took our food to go, but would have loved to sit and enjoy food and a glass of wine...next time. noodles were heavenly!!!”
“The meal was awesome. Huge portions for a very reasonable price. Lots to choose from. We went on a Monday morning and unlike the weekend, there's was no waiting.
The entrees are big enough to share so be sure and bring a friend or you'll be taking home enough for another meal.
It's very casual so you can bring the whole family, including your rowdy kids.”
“This is the best restaurant I’ve ever been to ! Trish treated us like family and was very accommodating!! The food and drinks were delicious!! Please come to Peoria ! We need you closer to Deedra and I ! Sunday was a great day ! I’m so happy Deedra brought be to experience your hospitality and your food !! Thank you for being Amazing!! ❤️”
“Parma has delicious Italian food in a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Service is friendly and attentive. The food came out promptly. Our appetizers and entrees were very tasty and reasonably priced. We would absolutely come back to try other dishes!”
“Relaxed seafood spot with my personal favorite tuna melt sandwich. They mix in some green chilis with the tuna which takes it to a whole nother level. Also the aioli has a really good flavor, but it is potent so use it sparingly”
“My wife and I attended the mini Chandler High class of 1983 reunion held at this fine establishment. The day and weather was beautiful to sit outside in the courtyard and visit with old friends. The food was delicious, nothing but rave reviews for everything made in house from the pizza's to the hummus made with cannelloni beans. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, atmosphere and Social interactions at Craft 64. Suzanna the manager went above and beyond making our reunion enjoyable and her service and staff are to be applauded for a job well done. Thank you!”

“Naked BBQ catered my country rustic backyard wedding for 50 people and I couldn't have been more impressed. Delivered right on time, and even stayed to help and ensure the food was transferred to my chaffing dishes and set up accurately for the best service for all. They were so helpful and amazing. But enough about them, the FOOD is off the charts! Meats are all out of this world, but their sides are the icing on the cake. Coleslaw, mac n cheese, potato salad, cornbread, etc. Looking for amazing BBQ delivered for a party, these are your guys! Look no further..... I did my own tasting with 4 other competitors, and Naked BBQ won, hands down.”

“Had a truly excellent experience yesterday for brunch on the patio. It started with the hostess seating us which was very professional and courteous. Alexis was our server and she was amazing. Found out during the end of our meal that she had only been working there for two days. She was as knowledgeable and professional as she could be. She checked back numerous times to see if we needed anything. The brunch burger was amazing. So many flavors inside one bun! The Bloody Mary’s were spot on! We dont live here but if we did this would be a regular spot for brunch, business dinners or just a great date night! In todays world of lousy service and subpar service, this place is a shining star!!!!!”
“Came here for dinner last night for the first time. I was very impressed. The drinks were nice and the food was amazing. The staff was super friendly and didn’t make us feel rushed like a lot of other places. We ordered dessert at 9:55 not realizing that they closed at 10 and nobody from the staff made us feel rude or pushed out the door. The steak and lobster were both great on top of having probably the best creamed spinach I have ever had. All around great dinner.”

“food was delicious the location is very well decorated and everything looks so upscale decorated. the best part was our service we received from Linda hands down the best server we have encountered in quite a while. she was so nice very pleasant and great service all around. you have a customer for life and will recomend her and the Restaurant with all my friends and family”
“This place blew me away. The coffee was great and the service was exceptional. They must be doing something right because the place was packed on a Saturday morning with lots of happy customers. You can see they’ve clearly built a culture around the cafe. Their focus on clean food and healthy living is refreshing and we need more businesses like them taking holistic well-being as seriously as they are. A new staple for me when I’m in town. Highly recommend.”
“This cafe is a great local spot to visit if you are ever in Arizona. The aesthetic of the place feels very comfy and gives local vibes. The friendly staff is a plus as the service was wonderful. This place is great to meet up with friends, relax, or even have a quick business meeting. The coffee is high quality and tastes amazing. The coffee taste is slightly different and tastes a bit sweeter than other comparable coffee places. They even have different types of designs that go on top of the coffee. This place also provides healthy organic options for drinks as well which is great for health conscious individuals. Besides the drinks, you have the choice to get some local bakery items along with your coffee as well. I personally did not try the baked goods but heard they were great from other people. I would say the average amount spent here is between $5-15 per person depending on if you get a snack. The cafe is in a small town so you could also grab a coffee and a snack then go shop or check out other local stores. The entrance was a little confusing because it was in the back of the store. Bright Side Cafe is inside of The Mercantile which is a little boutique shop. The only entrance was towards the back if you wanted to be right where the coffee shop was. If not, you would have to walk through the entire store to get to the cafe without any signs showing you where to go. On their Google listing, they should have the parking situation and directions on how to directly get to the cafe. This would make it a lot easier for people to find if they just park in the right spot instead of walking through the whole store.”
“My mom made reservations for us at noon, and when it reached 12:15, we still had not had a server acknowledge us or take our drink orders so we waved the first one we saw over. She apologized profusely and took our drink orders even though she was not our waitress. She said she would find out what the issue was immediately. When she returned with our drinks, she apologized again and said there was a miscommunication and our server would be over momentarily. When our actual waiter came over, he also apologized multiple times and was very pleasant. He took our order and was very polite and conversational. When he served us our food, he also brought an additional appetizer (one that I had already eyeballed on the menu but decided against… the melon salad) as an apology for our wait. We had already forgiven him, but this went above and beyond and we were very impressed with the impeccable customer service.
We ordered the filet mignon skewers, served with Mediterranean rice and lentils with a side of chimichurri. It was PHENOMENAL. The flavor blew me away. We also ordered the spicy olive hummus which was also exceptional. And the melon salad that he comped was absolutely delicious.
I wish I remembered our servers name! We were there on 4/6/26 at noon, and we sat in the outdoor area.
Kudos to Pinyon and its staff for making what could have been a disappointing experience into an exceptional one!”

“I tried this place out and wasn’t sure what to order. The guy behind the counter (I think his name was Spencer) was super helpful and friendly. He explained the menu and some of the items I was interested in and I decided on their “Best Drink Ever.” I can see why they call it that, it was delicious. Great place, great staff. Will be back.”
“❤️❤️Absolutely loved this place! The berry cobbler matcha is unreal — so unique, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Their latte was also amazing. The ambiance is super cute, trendy, and cozy, with tons of seating, which makes it perfect for hanging out or working.
I came yesterday at 5 mins after 3and didn’t realize they had just recently changed their hours. Even though they had already shut down their machines, the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. I told the girl I had driven 40 minutes to come and just wanted to snap a few photos to show much sister how cute it was inside — and they invited me in anyway and even offered to make me a cold brew. That kindness alone made my whole day and instantly made me want to come back. (Next weekend so my husband can drive me again lol)
The quality, uniqueness, and genuine hospitality here are unmatched. Thank you so much for making my day — I can’t wait to come back for my cobbler matcha again! 🫐🍓🍵”
