Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Litchfield Park

Exceptional food, atmosphere. My place to go for special occasions.

Went for the fixed price Valentine’s Day special. The environment is so classy and elegant and romantic. The food was excellent, outstanding, fresh, …. There’s not enough adjectives to describe how wonderful the meal was. The service was outstanding and also very discreet. Water glasses filled promptly and our server came by to check on us throughout the night. When dinner was over I remembered the exact words he said. “Is there anything else I can do for you to have a perfect evening?” Yes the food is pricey but I will return soon because the overall experience is stellar.

This restaurant is a real gym! They have a beautiful patio with lots of flowers, umbrellas, and space heaters for the chilly nights. We ate indoors in the adobe main building because of the morning rain storm that passed through earlier. It reminded me of many of the buildings in New Mexico, where I’m from. The furnishings and artwork inside were gorgeous. We ordered off the brunch menu and found some very creative selections. The service was outstanding and we are planning to return in about three weeks. :-)

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.

Great fresh food with an interesting menu. Love the guacamole that is made fresh at your table. It’s spendy but on par with most restaurant prices in the area. Friendly staff.
