Best Restaurants for People Watching in North Scottsdale

My partner and I ordered the Fennel salad special was amazing hope they include for a regular. We both ordered the Carbonara and it was the best I’ve ever had before!! Would definitely order again. Being an interior designer just wish they would do more in the dining area on the walls. Just seems so bland and unexciting. I could definitely see some black and white large photos of Italy and perhaps the family. Some free advice lol!

We were seated for our Valentine’s Day dinner five minutes early even though this was probably the restaurant’s busiest date of the year. Our waiter, Mike, is a veteran and a pro. He was very helpful, wasn’t full of himself and his knowledge and understanding of the menu as well as the type of dining experience most of his customers expect from such a we’ll know establishment, was impressive. There was nothing we asked him for which he wouldn’t have moved heaven and earth, to get for us. We had the sea bass and 8 oz. Filet as our main courses. The cut of the filet was prime and it tasted like it. It was a perfect medium rare. The sea bass was also moist and wonderful. What a great surprise this dining experience turned out to be. This was the best meal we had over our three previous nights in the Phoenix valley. Thanks Mastro’s.

We had lunch here to celebrate Valentines Day. We had the Dungeness Crab Salad, fries and 1/2 dozen oysters. We ordered the west coast oysters and they were delicious. The salad was generous, fresh with a light dressing. Very good. The fries were hand cut and fresh out of the hopper when brought to our table. One order was plenty for two of us. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. This was our first visit and we will return. Highly recommend Zinc Bistro.

Excellent food and service. Grass fed steak was excellent. Our servers (Kacie and Jessa) were friendly and efficient and very pleasant.

Wow! I had an idea of the sports book, and gaming set up, the big screens and wager opportunities ...but the restaurant and food blew me away! What an awesome experience. Great wait staff (Bobbi) and simple bar food taken to a high end level!
