Restaurants near Cartwright Plaza Shopping Center

Excellent experience every time i come. food is delicious and cooked to perfection. service was attentive and friendly. a little loud but i was sitting outside, nothing that the restaurant can control. beautiful ambiance otherwise. loved the valentine’s day menu. coffee cake was incredible. overall great experience, no notes.

Bacanora lives up to the buzz——lively, yet intimate. Casual and effortlessly cool. Friendly, knowledgeable, efficient waitstaff. Super background music that keeps the energy up but doesn’t drown conversation. And the food! We ordered elote, calabaza, and mole-crusted ribs with frijoles and cilantro salad. More than enough for the two of us, but we made room for flan. All delicious and different. And the cocktails! We had an old-fashioned-type and a classic martini-type, both with Mexican spirits. It’s worth the effort to score a reservation.

We love Steak 44! The service, attention to details and the food are impeccable! We treated ourselves to an early Valentine’s dinner last night. Hannah our original server heard me say something about the noise and graciously offered us another table. We were sitting next to large tables that were having a great time. It was so kind of her to take care of us. Jamel was our server at the second location and he was also so professional and engaging. Our food was delicious! We started off with the cone caviar. Perfect. Then Boo had the caesar and got the wedge. Both so tasty. Then we both ordered the bone-in filet. I explained how I wanted charred hot pink and Boo wanted red. We were both delighted on how perfect our steaks were. I also got the truffle butter lobster topping. OMG! Divine. Our dirty martinis were fantastic as was the espresso martini. Boo got an awesome dessert with ice cream and caramel and cake. Everything was great! Thanks 44 you never disappoint!!

We were early for reservations and grabbed seats and the bar for a couple of drinks while we waited. Our manhattans were excellent and our table was ready within 5 minutes of our reservation. We sat near the kitchen so there was some noise, but we enjoyed the atmosphere. The restaurant is huge so there’s plenty of room to find something more intimate. The scallops were fabulous, and my husband enjoyed his grain bowl with salmon. We finished with the butter cake and practically inhaled it. 3 cocktails, two entrees and a side plus a dessert for less than $150? We will absolutely be back!

General consensus from the party were outstanding. Appetizers were next level which included the bone marrow, bluefin tartare and the king crab stuff oysters. It really set the tone for the rest of the mains. Service was great from the staff and kept the tables clear and drinks full. The only exception to the meal was some of the mains. Over cooked and undercooked steaks that appeared to have been sitting for some time. Coming from a place where we have world class steak, the inconstancy we experienced was disappointing given the prices charged and what precluded this portion of the meal which many raves about. Overall pleasure and happy to recommend.
