- KKaraPhoenix / Arizona •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe started with a bottle of wine, perfectly setting the tone for the evening. The appetizers—pork belly tacos and black tiger shrimp—were packed with amazing flavor in every bite. The pork belly was tender and savory, while the shrimp was perfectly cooked with a delightful seasoning that left us wanting more. For the main course, we indulged in Korean fried chicken, Wagyu fried rice, spicy noodles, and the standout star of the night: 4 oz of Japanese A5 Olive Oil-fed Wagyu. This was not just a dish—it was an experience. The Wagyu, prepared tableside by Season 7 Masterchef winner, Chef Shaun, melted in our mouths and left us speechless. It was unlike anything we’ve ever tasted, a true showstopper that elevated the meal to another level. We also ordered sides of charred cabbage and roasted cauliflower, which perfectly complemented the mains. Every dish was a masterpiece of flavor and texture. The atmosphere was chic and inviting, and the personalized touch from Chef Shaun made the evening unforgettable. The total came to about $650 for four people—a splurge, but one that felt entirely worth it for the quality, ambiance, and exceptional experience. Three Thirty Three isn’t an everyday dining spot, but it’s a place we can’t wait to return to for another special occasion.

- SScottPhoenix / Arizona •3 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 24, 2024Food for five persons were very good with great services and hospitality.We ate our dinner at five pm and the outdoor dining area were pretty dark as there are no ceiling lights but do have small table LED light lamps and under bench lighting. Some of us had hard hard time reading the menus with low lights but was managed somehow. We will go there again with better daylights.More infoThe Mission – Old Town ScottsdalePrice: Moderate• Latin American• Old Town Scottsdale•4.6
