Upscale restaurant, on the expensive side but worth it. Great place for a special celebration. Our server Ramone, was wonderful. We had the oysters, grilled shrimp, chopped salad, fish and chips, scallops and steak frites. All were delicious.

We are super picky city dwellers visiting Scottsdale for November. We have struggled to find the right combination of ambiance and great food. Tonight was a big hit - we had oysters, shared a crab cake, steak frites, fish and chips and a key lime pie slice. Martini and an excellent Manhattan plus a little wine. We are big fans of our new favorite spot!
