Best Waterfront Restaurants in Phoenix

Our server, Destiny, was really attentive and so helpful. We had to toddlers dining with us and she was so patient, as was the entire staff. Food is consistently good and great options. Love this restaurant.

In town for a couple weeks and kept seeing how busy this place was, reviews looked up our alley, so we made a reservation for 8. We arrived early, 4 of us had drinks at the bar, live music was on point, and bar service was quick and well made cocktails. We were sat outside, with the heaters on low it was perfect, but a little loud (the live music was being fed via speakers), we asked and they adjusted them. The waitress was on her game, did fantastic. We had the pretzel / fondue app, and we devoured 2 sets of them. All of us were happy about our food, extremely tasty and well proportioned, except one that just wasn’t good, like maybe hit the heat lamps a bit. A couple of us tried his steak/frittes annd agreed it was not it…. So he started eating off everyone else since it was all good. The waitress offered to remake it fresh when she noticed and we said nah, he had food from everyone and was good. So she offered to take it off the meal (there was maybe 1 - 1 1/2 slices of steak gone and nearly no fries gone). We said that would be appreciated and thanks, and no worries everyone was good. The chef came out then and said he’d fire a new one and we could take it home even if he was fed now, we told him it was really not required/ needed. He then offered dessert, so we took him up on the desert and of course we all ate that up something fierce!!! When the bill came he had removed the steak meal, gave us free desserts and comp’d the apps. That was WAY more then I expected and service showing me how much some people want things to go right. Definitely made me say I’ll be back, and made for a 5 star review.

We had super fun and delicious birthday dinner! Wife has the sea bass and I had the mussels! Both were delicious. Thank you Logan for being a great server. Especially loved his humor when I said, “ I’ve had mussel from all over the world and he quickly replied….we just get ours right out of the canal”. Anyway, great food, service and fun. We will be back soon.

4-Star Review for Bianco in Scottsdale, AZ I recently visited Bianco in Scottsdale and had the BBQ Pork Taco with Pinto Beans and Rice, and I have to say, it was a delightful experience. My food arrived piping hot, which immediately set the tone for a great meal. The BBQ Pork Taco was a standout. The smoky sweetness of the BBQ paired beautifully with the tangy crunch of the pickled onions—an unexpected but perfect match. The pinto beans and rice were equally impressive, evoking a comforting sense of nostalgia. The flavors took me right back to my childhood, bringing memories of eagerly waiting for Sunday dinners after church with my family. The only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is that the atmosphere was a bit less energetic than I’d prefer for an exciting meal. Still, the food and friendly service more than made up for it. I’ll definitely be back to try more of their offerings!

We like the breakfast/brunch very much! Dinner not so. At least in for our dinner, more than 2 times our food was ok. But breakfast, coffee and pastry are really good! Service is always good, too.
