Roaring Fork is an American Western Bistro. We utilize a combination of ingredients indigenous to the American West and locally grown, including produce, to capture the 'spirit' of the west. The restaurant offers a comfortable, laid back environment that includes friendly professional service and the highest quality food. A great deal of attention is paid in creating the recipes and always using ingredients that are found in the American West. Western cuisine is not a ceremony; it's a celebration! The robust flavors and the courage to try something different is what we are all about. We would like to invite everyone to experience our 'spirit' while enjoying our food and hospitality.

    The Roaring Fork's Wood Fired Cooking captures the spirit of bold American cuisine, creating flavors that crackle with a rugged edge. In the Old West, the best food was prepared on a simple wood fire. This same spirit, freshness and flavor are at the heart of every dish we serve.

    We had the most lovely experience at dinner Saturday evening. It was my birthday celebration and the staff certainly made me feel special. Our server Val was one of the best servers we’ve had anywhere. She was very personable and gave us so much great, funny attention. Dinner was delicious and the brownie dessert was to die for.

    We celebrated our anniversary with a lovely meal tonight. The restaurant was very busy, but the service and food were excellent. We highly recommend the rotisserie chicken, the salmon and the brownie dessert.

    First off, I have to say our server was WONDERFUL and made what would have been a generally bad experience into a positive one, so thank you. The food was also very good. Our complaint is with the hostess and her lack of ability (or desire) to accommodate what we perceive to be a simple request. We had realized the day of that we made a reservation around the same time with another group of friends who were also in Scottsdale to celebrate my husband's 50th, so when our table arrived, we asked if it would be possible to be seated close to the other group. The hostess was quick to say "no; it wasn't possible". So fine, we understood as the restaurant appeared full and we didn't plan this in advance. However, upon minutes after sitting down at our table, the one next to us vacated, before the other (same-size) group arrived. So we asked again if the other party of 4 can please have the table beside us. She again said no, as it was reserved. After our friends arrived, they were sat at another table. As the table beside us was still open, we (and they) asked if they can be swapped and were told a firm no. What made this entire situation worse was the fact that the table beside us remained open the ENTIRE TIME WE WERE THERE, as if to add insult to injury. We find it difficult if not impossible to understand why they could not accommodate a simple table swap if the table we wanted was to be empty the entire time anyways?? Seems poor customer service. I have been in the hospitality industry for years, and this is no way to treat customers, particularly because it doesn't put the restaurant or any of its employees out in any way? For this reason, we will never be back nor will we ever recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    Year after year I continue to come to Roaring Fork and it never disappoints. The 22oz bone in ribeye was one of the best I’ve ever had, the ahi tuna was cooked perfectly with exquisite flavor. They accommodated allergy needs for two people in the party flawlessly. We will continue to chose this as our favorite restaurant in Scottsdale.

    We walked out. Very pedestrian place anyway. We arrived a little early for our reservation, the girl at the front door greeted us and said “give us a few minutes’ and after standing there for 10 minutes with 0 communication, we left and went to Vecina, which I’d highly recommend if you like really great food and service. Roaring Fork, however, we’ll never know - they blew it - we’ll never be back.

    Great food here and solid happy hour. Great service and attention to detail as well! Good atmosphere sitting down to eat in eating portion. A bit dark back there but manageable with phone light.
