- GGenevaVIPSeattle / Eastern Washington •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFirst time dining here - it was wonderful! The service, cocktails, apps and mains were on point! Tommy biscuits are to die for! So good! The restaurant has a cool vibe to it - the cherry on top is that the restaurant is Anthony Bourdain inspired. We’ll def be back!More infoThe EndsPrice: Expensive• American• Old Town Scottsdale•4.5
- DDouglasPhoenix / Arizona •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe had a chance to meet friends / colleagues who were in Phoenix for a family event. We wanted to meet at a place where we could have a conversation while enjoying great food and a wonderful overall experience. The service team, the team in the kitchen, the feeling connected to the restaurant, along with every contact point is designed to deliver consistent results. My first experience at Lon's was in 2006, and it remains my favorite place for this experience. All the best to each of you!More infoLon's at The HermosaPrice: Expensive• American• Paradise Valley•4.8

- DDanaVIPPhoenix / Arizona •19 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWasn’t expecting much as it’s a new highly anticipated concept in a very competitive market but I was blown away by the food, service, decor and ambiance. Well done all around. Clear elements of proper training, well curated menu that is not overdone - simple and approachable with an emphasis on quality and flavor. Staff is professional- refined dining experience without the stuffiness. Decor is top notch- felt like an elevated beach house in the desert. Consistency will need to be the name of the game from this point forward…can they sustain the same quality in all aspects going forward…not sure but will definitely be back in the hopes it does.More infoÉlephante ScottsdalePrice: Moderate• Italian• North Scottsdale•4.6
- MMarkVIPPhoenix / Arizona •167 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoWhat an outstanding experience! We sat at the bar and Mike took great care of us-we had excellent cocktails crafted with Hendricks gin and raspberry to start- We split an order of the Cacio e Pepe Arancini and wonderful entrees. I had their new addition of Lumache Norcina with sausage, rapini and a wonderful crema. Delicious! My wife had scallops with added on cippolini onions. Mike paired us with a great light red wine and it was perfection! Cynthia also added to the dining experience by helping us out a lot. Go!More infoNorth Italia – ArcadiaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Central Phoenix•4.6
