“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.”

“I’ve been coming to TYF for a a few months now and I just want to say first and foremost I’ve noticed a huge shift in energy. We felt so welcomed and so acknowledged that I had to analyze further into the environment to see what had changed other than the most amazing bartenders they have always had. After a few seconds of evaluating the answer had been provided to me. This lady named Lee. Some of the best ever I’ve ever felt from across the room. She was laughing, smiling, and controlling the energy of the crowd even us from across the bar. Come to figure out she is the new person in charge of TYF… and it came to clear to me at that moment that she is and will always be the most perfect for that bar. Hats off to her and here staff. She clearly cares…it reflects off every movement and decision she makes.. and those reasons are for making TYF better. It is better. Thank you Lee”

“Great cocktails and food with a cool speakeasy vibe. Our cocktails were delicious as were the Mediterranean salad and Margherita pizza. We loved the Wet my Beak and the Down Comforter craft cocktails and the presentation was beautiful. There was a lot of 'Excuse me, but what are you having?' due to the bartenders artistry. We will definitely be back to try other cocktails!”

7 Reserve

4.9 Superb 160 Reviews

6934 East 1st Avenue Suite 102, Scottsdale

“My buddy Paul and I had Reserve recommended to us multiple times, so we finally decided to check it out while we’re in town, and did the 9 course tasting menu with the wine pairing. It completely lived up to the hype. From the second we walked in, the ambiance was amazing and the service was on point. What really stood out to me was how much detail went into explaining each course and each wine pairing. It made the whole experience feel way more personal and intentional instead of just having food placed in front of you. Every course was different, memorable, and really well thought out. The wine pairings made the experience even better. Easily one of the best fine dining experiences I’ve had, and definitely somewhere I’d recommend if you want something that feels special and different from a normal dinner.”

“Myself and friend were visiting from Washington and decided to go the Beverly for some late night drinks and I have to say it was one of the most memorable nights of our entire trip to Scottsdale. The food was amazing, the restaurant is clean, but what stood out most was the staff. Honorable mention to Hannah our server, Karla and Madison as hostesses, and Nathan as support. Their friendly, welcoming, and energetic personality resulted us in not just staying later than expected, but reopening a tab because we just couldn’t leave. 10/10 would recommend, come visit for the food and atmosphere but also the staff!”

“Great place to relax and eat by the pool! We ordered the guac and salsa trio and split a grilled chicken sandwich. I also had a Corona. John was our waiter and was very kind. They even brought us two half servings of the sandwich since we were splitting it. Of course, this restaurant is in a very overpriced resort and the menu prices are pretty high. Overall, a nice experience though. And the views are great!”

“The restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious food. We really enjoyed the burger and fries and the sea bass ceviche, but everything was wonderful…especially for a poolside restaurant (it’s rare to find one that offers good, fresh sushi options!). And the drinks were delicious. Ricardo delivered our food and he was completely lovely, attentive, and professional (I wish he was our server!). Blake/Drake (?) the pool attendant was wonderful - very pleasant and helpful.”

We decided to meet at the hotel restaurant instead, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The service was top-notch, and the drinks were just what we needed. The tacos were delicious! The hotel itself had a great vibe and atmosphere. Overall, it was a wonderful spot to unwind and enjoy some good company!”

20 PINYON – Coastal Mediterranean

4.7 Superb 211 Reviews

7363 East Scottsdale Mall, Scottsdale

“Stopped into Pinyon in Old Town Scottsdale and headed up to the second-level bar for a cocktail. What a great spot to settle in and enjoy the atmosphere! I decided to try the “Up All Night” Martini, and it absolutely delivered. The addition of saffron brings a unique and sophisticated twist to the classic espresso martini, adding another layer of flavor that really makes this cocktail stand out. It’s always refreshing to find a place that takes a familiar favorite and elevates it with a little creativity. Pinyon certainly accomplished that with this one! Definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re an espresso martini enthusiast looking for something a little different!”

Each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, leaving a lasting impression on my palate. The restaurant's ambiance was warm and welcoming, and the service was top-notch, contributing to an overall fantastic dining experience.

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!!!!!”

For some reason we have never gone to Lincoln Steakhouse and I must say it was an amazing surprise. The steak was as good as it gets, service was great and it was clean and had amazing views of camelback. The only thing that we didn't like was the music playing but I look forward to heading back there soon for another steak. I love Steak 44 but I must say the ribeye at Lincoln was better - crazy but true. Give it a try.”

“I came here specifically for a Pho craving and was delighted to find a new favorite restaurant (but not for the reason I expected). My partner and I ordered two rice paper spring rolls (Phat Budda and Chuck Norris) and it was an incredible flavor experience (so much so that by the end of the meal I wish I had omitted the Pho completely for more rice paper spring rolls). Though their Pho is lovely, it was the spring rolls that made us determined to come back for more. Both came with different sauces, the flavor and freshness was bold, and the quality was high.”
