GREAT FOOD CRAZY FUN PLACE

by jo3841

THIS PLACE IS LIKE A SCENE FROM NEW YORK. THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, THE ATMOSPHERE WAS WILD AND VERY ENGAGING, THE PEOPLE WHO WORK THERE ALL SEEM TO BE HAVING A GREAT TIME. THE MUSIC ALTHOUGH A LITTLE LOUD WAS TOTALLY FRANK SINATRA, AND DEAN MARTIN, ALL WE DID IS LAUGH WITH THE OWNER WHO SEEM'S TO JUST GET A KICK OUT OF MAKING FUN OF HIS CUSTOMERS. IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE

  • Pros: VERY ENTERTAINING

What a great place...

by Amy411

My family (all 16 of us) and I came to this restaurant for a graduation celebration. The waiter started us off with some wonderful appetizers. Everyone had a terrific entree'. And, when it was time for dessert, the waiter took my 6 yr. old nephew into the kitchen to get his own ice cream. He is still talking about that. The rest of us split a few different choses. My favorite was the terramisu. The place was very busy, and even though we took up alot of space, we never felt rushed or like we needed to go. The service was excellent! I would highly recommend this restaurant. I'm sure I'll be going back many more times.

  • Pros: service, food, price

What a wonderful experience!

by BethVarley

My husband and I were recently in Scottsdale and stumbled upon this Old Town gem. From the minute we came in, we knew we would be back again. We are both sports fans and there are 5 TVs. We were able to watch the hockey playoffs as well as a few different baseball games without going to a "sports bar".The service was fantastic. The waiters make you feel like you are the only one in the room. Not knowing much about wine, but wanting to enjoy a bottle, our waiter was very knowledgable and chose for us. The food was absolutely delicious. We started with an appetizer of fried artichokes which were great, then my husband had a seafood pasta dish and I had the Halibut piccata that I am still trying to duplicate at home! We split a dessert which was just perfect. The atmosphere is so upbeat and exciting that you can't help but have fun. We were told that the business has been around for over 30 years with the same owner. I can certainly see why this place has staying power. I, for one, hope it's around another 30 more!

  • Pros: food, service, atmosphere
  • Cons: none
