    This was only our 2nd time here and our 1st actually dining, as our 1st visit was cut short due to an evacuation. The place was packed, delaying seating for those with reservations by about 20 mins. Once seated, our server was quick to greet us and get our drink orders, followed by starters, and some samples of various wines. Our entrees were quite delicious, and the portions were not excessive, nor did they leave us hungry. The noise level was vibrant but not to a level that we couldn't hear our own conversation while speaking in a normal tone. The prices were about where we expected for the quality of food. I definitely the PBJ Old Fashion which comes with a sweet red wine back to complete the flavor concept. Amazing! Overall, our server was very attentive, personable, and knowledgeable of the menu. Ambiance was warm, vibrant, and inviting. We did join the wine club to give it a try and look forward to returning to indulge in other menu items that caught our eye. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Look I never leave reviews or read reviews but I’m going to about this experience I’ve frequented Steak 44 multiple times and heard about Ocean 44 had to try it. 1st Staff amazing friendly attentive very helpful and just overall pleasant to be around. 2nd Ambience was great very elegant formal fine dining 3rd coming from a culinary background and has held titles such as sous,executive,and senior executive positions they didn’t not disappoint my only complaint which I really am not complaining my Spanish octopus wasn’t plated like the pictures I saw but the flavor would shut me up immediately … Well done to the Chefs and line cooks amazing job kitchen staff don’t get the appreciation they deserve all the time and you guys were amazing!!! 4th Our server Rian he was great very knowledgeable about the menu and his thoughts and opinions on dishes matched exactly so I definitely will be back and I hope to have the pleasure to have his service again great job guys

    We had a great time. I had a small issue with my food. Both my server and the manager corrected my situation with ease. I appreciate the effort and customer service. Its rare these days and I will support Elephante simply because I know I will leave with the best experience. We overall enjoyed the ambiance. The menu is good. If I had one recommendation for improvement… they have many things that many Scottsdale restaurants already offer for less money… and on the same class of restaurant as Elephante. Seems like this could be a weak point personally. However, I think the restaurant is beautiful, and look forward to coming back and enjoying another great experience! Thanks for reading

    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.

    Celebrating an anniversary, we enjoyed a delicious meal, service was impeccable and vibe was spot on. We started with the lobster bisque and the French onion soup. Both were plentiful and very tasty. French onion soup was cheesy and full of onions and perfectly seasoned broth. The bisque was rich, creamy and full of flavor. The lobster was presented in a large bowl and the soup poured over. Our entrees were the filet mignonette and lobster tail and the prime ribeye. We chose the asparagus and Brussel sprouts as our sides. Both meats were cooked to perfection and flavorful, like butter. Just the right size. The lobster was also cooked to perfection, my personal favorite. The vegetables were well cooked. I preferred the asparagus over the Brussel sprouts. It really isn’t Brussel sprout season, so I will try again when they are inseason. We shared cream brûlée and coffee to finish this memorable meal. We taken to a very comfortable booth decorated with personal menus to take home. As we waited for cocktails our picture was taken and framed for us to take home. Morton’s even comp our desert. Our server Cindy was amazing. We never ask for a thing. She knew, appreciative of her experience. Cindy made us feel welcomed and valued. Amazing service. The Morton’s full service experience! The restaurant is beautiful and has a beautiful view. The lighting was well designed. Most Morton’s are dark and intimate, which we love. Hostess was friendly and accommodating. We arrive 30 minutes early. We greatly appreciated the accommodation. Throughout our experience management checked in to be sure we were enjoying our meal. Not intruding at all. This is what fine dining is all about. Looking forward to our next visit.
