Outstanding Quality

by TLee at Citysearch

People who know quality will appreciate this restaurant. The flavors and seasonings in the food make you ask for more. I have been to the finest restaurants in Phoenix and Scottsdale and I can tell you that the food here is memorable. I can always tell when I've had a good meal because I will remember the taste and crave it until I go back. That is what the food at Bobby's is like. The excellent food would be enough, but the atmosphere is truly beautiful and the service was equally top notch. The entertainment is fun and enjoyable. The prices at Bobby's are competitive with other restaurants of this quality. I would highly recommend this dining experience.

• Pros: Best tasting food in the valley
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?

Not impressed

by PhoenixFun at Citysearch

Our server was very friendy and helpful in explaining the specials and reviewing the menu. This was our first time dining here as we were out to celebrate a birthday and wanted to hear some jazz. I am willing to spend some money for a superb meal, however, Bobby's did not meet my expectations. Actually, disapointing considering I spent $150.00. I will not be returning to Bobby's, nor would I recommend as a place to dine. The "jazz" music was anything but jazz and sounded like karaoke. No offense to the performers, but Bobby's touts jazz, but you couldn't tell.

I guess I am looking for that "wow "experience when spending my hard earned money on a dinner, which I like to do from time to time. I worked in several fine dinning restaurants through college and know what the experience is supposed to be for a customer. Bobby's missed the mark with me.

• Pros: Service was good, as the wine
• Cons: Seafood not fresh and the jazz sounded like a karaoke bar

One of the best meals and time i have had in the phoenix area. Had the fresh halibut was cooked perfect my date had the filet very tender and the Bearnaise sauce was great. Great wine list, after dinner went up to the lounge for after dinner drinks and listen to the entertainment very good.

Service was very attentive.
