Course

After years of honing his craft at some of the best dining establishments in the Valley, chef Cory Oppold forged his own path with Course. From the outside, this little restaurant is just another tenant in a Scottsdale strip mall. But inside, the experience is fully fine dining. During the evening, Course offers tasting menus with small bites that rotate throughout the seasons. Tuesday through Thursday, the meal consists of five courses. On Friday and Saturday nights, customers get the full eight-course experience. In January, the chef was named a James Beard Award semifinalist.
