Tasty Kabob

Elegant Persian cafe serving authentic Persian food. Fragrant, heaping platters of chelo kabob koobideh and joojeh kabob will help restore warm American-Iranian relations. The signature dish is zereshk polo, a special rice mixed with barberries and saffron. Try the homemade doogh, an unsweetened yogurt drink, but remember: It’s an acquired taste. The Persian ice cream […]

The Tavern

Based on memories of the French wine bars that chef/owner Mark Tarbell frequented while apprenticing in Paris, this wine shop and bistro offers mostly American favorites: The wedge salad is a nice starter, as is a better-than-average spinach dip. Solid entrees include superb chili con carne; octopus tacos; and truffle comte bikinis-crustless, toasted mini sandwiches […]

Taxi Inn

The drink selection at the Taxi Inn is limited to beer and wine, but that doesn’t seem to matter to its patrons. Everyone’s having too good a time soaking in the dive bar ambiance and sucking down Pacificos and Tecate to care about the fact that the only mixed drink being served are Micheladas (a.k.a. […]

Ted’s Hot Dogs

It’s true: The hot dogs here are out-of-the-world terrific: Plump and juicy and cooked just right; crispy on the outside and moist and meaty on the inside.

The family-owned 16th Street torta hall has been around since 2002, and offers nearly 20 tortas in mini, regular, and super sizes. We recommend the […]

TeHaru Sushi

The exterior of Haru Sushi is deceptively fortress-like, but inside it’s spacious and cheerful, with a sprawling three-sided sushi bar surrounded by a sleek conveyor belt. Grab whatever strikes your fancy, or order directly from the compact menu of sushi standards. At the end of the meal, they tally your bill based on how many […]

Tell Your Friends

Located underneath The Americano in north Scottsdale, the speakeasy-style lounge Tell Your Friends is accessed through a descending staircase and a red mirrored hallway. Inside, red velvet drapes, floral decor and a shimmering gold ceiling and bar set the tone. Live musicians perform as expert mixologists shake and stir unusual cocktails behind the bar. Try […]
