Restaurants near Paradise Heights

Perfect evening at the perfect spot. Great food. Patio can’t be beat; well-lit and warm even at ~50 degrees. Alex did a great job taking care of us. The sliders (I think we tried them all), rotisserie chicken, prawns, burrata and prosciutto, buffalo chicken waffle fries, sangria, old fashioneds, brownie dessert…, everything was perfect. Thank you Mo for introducing our friends to your restaurant. We’ll all be back soon.

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.

Another successful dining experience at the Italiano. We opted for the Festival of the Fishes which was a special 5 course meal. Loaded with seafood, and other dishes..the only dish you pick is the entree. I ordered the Swordfish even to the server said it wasn’t her favorite, but out of the other 3 choices it sounded good. The description didn’t match what I received tho.. It looked like 3 rolled up breadsticks. The actual swordfish was very thin and wrapped around some ground Saleme…it didn’t look appealing at all. Would not suggest or tbe menu needs to be more clear. Everything else was very good, except the weird sticky cookie type crackers they served with the Rainbow cake for dessert.

Food was amazing! Pasta strascinati, lobster pappardelle special, veal saltimbocca, and osso bucco were all fantastic. Can’t miss. Our waitress was great but service was a bit slow at the end. Definite hit in Scottsdale area!

Great food. Great service. Spectacular view. Great ambiance. A bit pricey but worth it. Will make it a regular stop.
