This week: The Mint at The Mint
The Mint in Old Town Scottsdale has only been open for three months, and on any given Saturday night, the 7,000-square-foot space is already packed wall to wall with Scottsdale elite.
Tricked out with lounge decor, hi-tech lighting, and a spacious cabana-style patio, The Mint is Old Town Scottsdale’s new black.
