   The day after Valentine's Day 730pm seating was the busiest I've ever seen this restaurant. Several large parties inside and out had the servers and kitchen very busy. Our server, James, was excellent. He explained that the kitchen was very busy and orders were taking a little longer than usual. We understood and appreciated the info. He brought the food out as soon as it was ready. Our filet mignon steaks were delicious and cooked perfectly. House salads and asparagus were fresh and tasty. The cheesecake for dessert was perfect. Before we left, James gave us a coupon to use for our next visit, which we appreciated. Great food, great service. Highly recommend.

   I usually enjoy Paul Martin's. However, I went on Mother's Day and for Valentine's Day and my experiences on both days did not meet my expectations. On both days, the menu was limited. This was for sure not communicated on their website for Valentine's Day ... I checked since I had been surprised at Mother's Day. Items on the menu for Valentine's were also more expensive than shown on their regular menu. Food quality was below average ... maybe due to the larger crowd size. Calamari was oily and over cooked. The Chicken Parmesan and Fettuccine looked like cafeteria food and the fettuccine was cooked too long. Bright spot? The service was above normal ... as usual. I've learned my lesson, though. No more Paul Martin's on holidays.

   Great service and a fun vibe. We had our entire family for dinner and everyone enjoyed. The steaks were amazing.

   This is usually one of our favorite restaurants in Scottsdale. We decided to celebrate every individual members birthday here this year, too. My son’s was first in January and it was wonderful. Mine was yesterday. All I can say is that you probably do not want to come here for any holiday, and I’ll add, the day after. Service-bad- too much to write here. Food- 3 overcooked steaks, terrible cocktails, an undercarmelized crème brûlée, and part of a toothpick found in the soup (as a reminder, this is a chocking hazard). We thought the waiter may want to know this as it was only a small part of the toothpick. Well, he treated us poorly after that. I want to add that I have the funniest family that knows how to turn anything around and they did. Too bad the staff at PM’s didn’t feel a bit more joyful yesterday. My daughter’s birthday is coming up at the end of February. We’ll be going elsewhere.

    Pasta came out luke warm and was cold within 3 minutes. The fish I was served was over topped with teriyaki sauce you couldn’t even taste the fish. The rolls as our app also came out barely warm and was cold within a minute. Very unfortunate to bring my Valentines date to and spend that much…might as well of went to Ocean 44 with those prices and it be worth it.
