    We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at the Wrigley Mansion. The service, food, and atmosphere were terrific. What a welcoming experience you have going to the Mansion for a meal or just a drink. Thank you for another great time.

    Excellent experience. Not cheap but I wanted a top notch experience in a breathtaking setting. Christopher's far exceeded our expectations. The service from all the friendly servers left us never wanting. The wine list was extensive and the wine stewardess was a great help. The staff worked with me to taylor our food selections and timing of the arrival of the dishes which varied from what I ordered online. The food was very creative and very flavorful. We enjoyed all the dishes and the artwork and chemistry involved. Christopher is incredible with his creations. His personal visit capped the evening. If you're looking for an incredible dining experience you will not be disappointed at Christopher's.

    The best meal we have ever had in Arizona, perhaps anywhere EVER! We started with the Large Seafood Tower, We also had Filet Mignon with Chimichurri Sauce and side of mushrooms, the Filet was the best! Prepared perfectly, 2 in our party asked for medium rare and we shared a medium and WOW. On point. Twice stuffed Lobster Baked Potato was such a rich delicious add on. The service was the best I have ever experienced. We loved the beautiful ambiance and the quiet atmosphere to converse with friends. Im without words....11 out of 10!!

    An Unforgettable Dining Experience! Sandfish Sushi is hands down one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment we sat down, the ambiance was welcoming and sophisticated. Instead of choosing from the menu, we decided to let the chef take the lead—and wow, what a decision that was! Every dish was a masterpiece, carefully crafted with the freshest ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The chef’s selections took us on a culinary journey, introducing us to flavors and combinations we never would’ve thought to try. Each bite was a delightful surprise, and you could taste the passion and creativity behind every plate. The service was impeccable, with the staff making us feel like VIPs the entire evening. If you’re looking for more than just a meal, but an experience, Sandfish Sushi is it. I can’t recommend it enough and will definitely be coming back soon!
