    Really enjoyed Richardson's, love the vibe at the restaurant. A little problem with the food in that something was requested not to be put on the plate, which the waiter noted, and yet it appeared. The dish had to be taken back and fixed. Since we were with another couple we asked for separate checks which was denied. We were told that the best they can do was split the check in half. Very odd in this day. Something I think they need to fix.

    We enjoyed our visit to Z Tejas mainly because of our excellent Server, who is friendly and helpful. For booking our table, we got a free appetizer, which was much appreciated. Our food was excellent, margaritas excellent. I only gave it four stars because I was disappointed in the cornbread delivery. It used to be a large pan now it’s little tiny individuals that have about two bites to them. I love my cornbread and want more! They did bring out extra one asked, but that is an afterthought. Otherwise, I highly recommend this location in Scottsdale.
