Finger foods and affordable craft beer are the order of the day here. Located on the second floor, this beer garden and wine bar technically is not in an attic, but it’s high enough in relation to surrounding buildings to offer great views, even when you’re seated inside. The dark paint and dark wood furniture […]

This historic landmark nestled in the shadows of Squaw Peak Mountain offers signature dishes like spinach and chicken burros and picadillo fajitas (not to mention a chimichanga that puts all others to shame) as well as specialties like the cheesy mushroom-and-chili Hamburguesa. Magnificent chow for reasonable prices.
During the pandemic, most restaurants switched from full service to takeout. At Authentic EthioAfrican on McDowell Road, the team did just the opposite. During the downtime, the restaurant transformed from a takeout-only spot into a sit-down destination complete with wooden furniture and decor brought directly from Ethiopia, a new cocktail list and a traditional coffee […]
Same food, different location from the old-school-cool space in a former IHOP on Central Avenue that evoked Roman Polanski’s Chinatown in decor and comestibles. Alas, the kitchen at the Central Avenue locale fell victim to a fire in late ’05, closing the place for the next year. The new spot looks more like a Swiss […]
At stylish Avalon – located in an unlikely part of south Scottsdale — executive chef Travis Watson caters to guests at the adjacent 3 Palms Oasis Resort with standards like steak and Caesar salad, but adds a few twists to his California-meets-Mediterranean menu, like calamari “frites,” polenta-stuffed prawns, and lovely desserts that reflect his pastry […]
Local cuisine and our knowledge of Italian desserts have grown over the past 40 years thanks in part to Avanti, which opened in 1974. The owner is likely to stop by your table to chat about what you ordered or to boast about the interior, all black-and-white offset by blood red walls and zebra-striped fabrics. […]
With a name like Awesome Cookie Company, you’d expect nothing short of, well, awesome from a cookie. Luckily, the cookies deliver on the name, even though there are only two flavors available. The most popular option, the cranberry oatmeal, kind of tastes like a really fancy enlarged Cookie Crisp, which is baffling because it isn’t […]
Mark Nichols thinks about flavor. The chef and pitmaster opened Arizona BBQ Company with his wife, Colette, in Gilbert in 2017. Mark has a classical culinary training from Le Cordon Bleu. Nichols applies his training to the process of cooking meat. The result is that European technique and American cuisine merge.
The interior of AZ Kabob House is cheerful but not lavish, and the menu includes less traditional fare, like Greek salads and hummus, but their Persian specialties, like tender, ground beef kubideh kabobs served over saffron rice; homemade doogh, a salted mint and yogurt drink; and gormeh sabzi, a lamb and herb stew, are some […]

Did someone say martinis? At this park-front bar in Scottsdale, you can get a London favorite Pornstar Martini with vanilla vodka, passionfruit, lime juice and a shot of Champagne. If that’s too fruity for your taste, there are always the classics, such as the espresso martini and Manhattan. But AZ/88 is not your regular neighborhood […]
