Mahi Mahi tacos were absolutely delicious, probably our favorite of the night. We also really enjoyed the eggplant, steak, happy ending sushi roll, guacamole, Margherita's, Mojito and for dessert we had the sticky toffee cake, so much yumminess in one night we practically had to be rolled out of there!

We celebrated my husband’s birthday on Christmas Eve. Everything was wonderful. We had the branzino fish. It was prepared exceptional. Our waitress was very efficient and endearing. The last thing I would mention is the noise level. So many restaurants in Scottsdale play very loud music which brings up the level of sound to make it unable to talk to someone sitting right next to you. Ocean 44 was perfect. We could slightly hear the music but enjoyed talking to each other
