Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Ahwatukee

My business had me traveling for 40 years. I have eaten in the great "food" cities of the U.S. Cuisine and Wine matches with any restaurant I have been to. I know, I sound like some hipster hooked on hyperbole, but this is a fine dining experience. Best place I've ever eaten in Arizona by far. Had bacon-wrapped filet with bernaise sauce and my wife had duck breast. French onion soup was primo. But the bacon/bleu cheese brussells sprouts were a total surprise...delicious. You can order a $12 glass of wine or a $2,500 bottle from the extensive and sophisticated wine list curated by a sommelier. Our server, Laura, completed our wonderful night with her skill, courtesy, and knowledge. Attentive, but not obstrusive, she made it even better. It's so rare to see something like this in this generally tired culinary landscape.

The food was wonderful, the service was great. If you're coming for dinner, come during daylight hours to enjoy the beautiful setting! The hotel's architecture is lovely and their art collection is wonderful. If we'd had more time, would have had a drink after dinner in the lobby bar and enjoyed the music. We had buffalo meatloaf and Ga'ivsa with side salads to start.

This place is amazing. The hostess was there and ready to greet you upon arrival. The manager appeared to open the door and welcome you into the establishment. Our Server was excellent. She was there for everything we needed. Had great knowledge of the food and drink items. The music was soft and a vibe. We can’t wait to go back!
