Best Restaurants for Foodies in Arcadia

We arrived early for our reservation and while we were waiting we found 2 seats at the bar. Since it was comfortable and the same menu was available we decided to eat at the bar. Good choice as Joe was our bartender and was very attentive. We started with the mussels and then I had Gnocchi, which was excellent and my wife had Gigli, also very good. We finished with Tiramisu, which was killer good. Overall a very enjoyable Christmas Day dinner.

Having dinner at Fugo this Christmas was just a wonderful dining experience because of the fantastic General Manager Mimi & her excellent staff which consists of Rachel her asst. mgr., Eddie customer ser., Gaucho Guzman who brought us fantastic filet mignon & a host of other great employees which made our dinner absolutely the best. The service that Mimi who is a hands on General Manager makes this restaurant a gem with a 5 star rating because of her expertise & having her staff deliver excellent customer service. We highly recommend this restaurant.

I wanted to take my wife to a nice Christmas dinner and we chose Orange Sky on a whim, not knowing what to expect. They were not offering a pris fixe menu for Christmas but their regular menu offered exotic meats, such as Antelope, Bison, Wild Boar, Ostrich and Mike, our server was STELLAR. He took excellent care of us, guiding us through the menu, and making my wife feel extra special (her birthday is Christmas Eve). I specifically chose an early reservation to enjoy the sunset, and the views did not disappoint. The black garlic oysters were my personal favorite, while my wife enjoyed the sausage. Mike paired our food with several excellent wines from Italy and France. I wanted an espressotini with Baileys and Orange Sky was happy to make my dessert cocktail a little creamy, the way I like it. I would LOVE to come back to try their smoked prime rib or dry-aged meats soon.

Great find in Scottsdale! During an overnight stay in Scottsdale my wife and I were attempting to find seating for dinner on Christmas Eve. We originally booked another restaurant then made the call to switch to Grassroots even though the only seating available was on the patio. We were not disappointed. The Noble bread service was a great start and the soup of the day, a chicken broth type soup with poblano, jalapeño and other seasonings, was exceptional! My spouse had the Waldorf chicken salad, also very good, and the shrimp and grits, an unusual choice for me, was quite delicious. We ended our meal with their key lime pie, and I would highly recommend it. All in all, Grassroots was an outstanding experience - great service, great food and nice atmosphere.

What a pleasant experience!!! We came here on Christmas Eve for dinner and all the way from the food to the service it was all amazing! Beautiful restaurant, everything is so spaced out yet it can accommodate so many tables/people. The laaarge outdoor patio was also very nice to go out to after for a drink. We ordered quite a few menu items for just the two of us because we simply could not resist trying a variety of the menu items and not a single complaint ! This place was stunning during the holiday season and so nicely decorated. Thank you for making our Christmas Eve even a bit more special, we will be back!
