- LLisaVIPLas Vegas •15 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe went to dinner for Valentine’s Day and we had the best time. Starting with our server, Chris, he was amazing and so much fun. We had the salt and pepper shrimp appetizer, maybe the best cocktail sauce ever, teriyaki salmon, and the short ribs. The salmon was amazing, and I’m not a salmon fan. I think if I was to order that for myself, I would ask for little or no sauce. Salmon was so good it doesn’t need to taste like anything else! Ow the short ribs we heavenly. With horseradish cream and mashed potatoes. So good I want more now!! And finally, the warm butter cake. Holy helicopter there are no words for how good that was. I cannot wait to go back. Do yourself a favor, ask to be seated in Chris’s section. You won’t be sorry!!More infoPaul Martin's American Grill - ScottsdalePrice: Moderate• American• Old Town Scottsdale•4.5
- JJimCoastal Georgia •11 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe celebrated our 32nd Wedding anniversary, and as usual, the experience at Elements was outstanding. Our server was professional, knowledgeable, and helpful without being intrusive. The ambiance and surroundings are superb. Our starters and entrees were exceptional, and the chef's anniversary dessert was out of this world. Overall, a 5-Star experience. My only complaint- and this is about almost every restaurant we've patronized lately- was the inappropriate music selection--much too contemporary and improper for a fine dining experience. Please use simple background jazz at a lower volume. Your guests will appreciate it!More infoelements at Sanctuary Camelback MountainPrice: Very Expensive• American• Central Scottsdale•4.5
- JJulieVIPDetroit / Eastern Michigan •12 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had a wonderful meal on a Thursday evening. Just two of us. It was bustling as they have a solid happy hour daily 3:30-6:30. Started with beef tartare and octopus. Loved the endive vessel for the tartare instead of typical bread. Next course, gigli pasta - so simple yet full of flavor. I enjoyed the portion size for two people (smallish), allowing us to try a number of dishes. We are not big eaters but enjoy a variety. Lastly, as an entree we shared the branzino. Perfectly prepared, filleted, no head, no bones. The sauce was a compliment but did not take away the taste of the fish. Highly recommended! Service was spectacular too.More infoFat OxPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Central Scottsdale•4.6
- AAlexisVIPPhoenix / Arizona •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoThe Ends is an incredible restaurant. I love that they don’t use any seed oils and instead focus on cooking with tallow. The food is amazing, and I think their pasta is better than any Italian restaurant here in the Valley. I know everyone says this, but the Cacio e Pepe is definitely something to write home about. It’s really, really good. Almost equivalent to the one I had at Osteria Da Fortunata in Rome. The thick noodles and sauce are very similar. Absolutely delicious. We also had the mushroom pasta, meatballs, Hamachi crudo, and beet burrata. All excellent. The only downside was that they were out of multiple dishes, which was a bit disappointing. However, they made it up to us by giving us a $45 gift card, which we appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend it to friends and family.More infoThe EndsPrice: Expensive• American• Old Town Scottsdale•4.5
- CCharisseVIPPhoenix / Arizona •54 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe had a wonderful dining experience because of the professionalism of Rachael the restaurants manager. The restaurant had so many new hires but because of Rachael, she made the restaurant run like a top. I wish to also mention one of the Gaucho servers named Guzman who made our meat preparation just perfect. Because of the wonderful experience we had we are looking forward to our next visit.More infoFogo de Chao - ScottsdalePrice: Moderate• Brazilian• Central Scottsdale•3.8
