    This wasn’t my first choice but we were sure happy we ended up here. We ordered steaks and they were perfectly cooked, the sides were delicious as well but what put this place over the top for us was the service. Andrew was our waiter and he was great, the entire staff was. After dinner I asked for the manager to let her know how satisfied we were with our dining experience. Next time we visit Scottsdale we will be sure to return here.

    First time to try out this spot and I'm glad I did. The prime rib sandwich and truffle fries were delicious. Service was excellent and the restaurant had a cool vibe going. Good crowd for lunch but easy to have a conversation with my lunch partner.

    We shared the kale ceaser salad, chimichurri steak, and the veggies enchilada for date night. Everything was great. We also coveted our neighbors' truffle flat bread. We'll be back for that for sure. Limited wine menu, however, didn't disappoint. Nice casual evening

    Another wonderful dinner at Olive & Ivy! We ordered the crispy brussels sprouts as and appetizer and it was an excellent start. We also split a beet salad, and it didn’t disappoint for those who love beets. My wife then ordered the chicken scallopini and she loved it. I dined on the filet and it was cooked perfectly. The sauce was delicious and the scalloped potatoes which accompanied the steak made it a totally enjoyable meal. Service was again outstanding. Certainly will be going back during our stay in the Scottsdale area.
