Reata Pass Restaurants

We ate in the lounge and our server Crystal was wonderful. She is so nice and engaging, made things very enjoyable. My appetizer was the Involti eggplant and it was so good. My wife had a Greek salad and really liked it. She ordered the Carni pizza, it was delicious. I had the Halibut puttanesca and requested the sweet corn risotto which they fixed for me. It was fabulous and I would definitely get it again The gentleman playing music in the lounge was very good and engaged the crowd, we had some good laughs.

Vic & Ola's is our favorite high end Italian restaurant. It has some wonderful Italian Cuisine that is hard to find, like Osso Bucco. Try the Artichoke side dish or their Burrata and tomatoes. They also have a wonderful wine list with a large selection of Italian and other European wines, something that is not too common in the California wine influenced Scottsdale area. We have sat indoors and most recently on the outdoor patio which is lovely and quite comfortable with all the high end heat lamps. We will back soon!

A Toast to Jackson, Cash, and Preston's Steak House At Preston’s Steakhouse, a night to remember, Warmth in the air, though it’s late December. Jackson and Cash, with attentive care, Made our evening beyond compare. With smiles that sparkled and service refined, Every detail handled, nothing confined. Glasses refilled before they ran dry, Questions answered with a gleam in the eye. The burgers were divine, cooked to perfection, Each bite a journey, a savory connection. But the true star came at dessert’s call— The Double Chocolate Brownie, the crown of it all. Rich and fudgy, a cocoa dream, With ice cream melting in a heavenly stream. A sweet finale, pure delight, Capping the meal with joy that night. Here’s to Jackson and Cash, a duo supreme, Part of what makes Preston’s a dream. For service, flavors, and memories shared, A place to return, always prepared.

Talavera is a special place for special occasions ! We were celebrating a first wedding anniversary and were seated overlooking the wonderful view of the setting sun. The menu was an interesting mix of Spanish and steakhouse and we chose two appetizers to share -steak tartare and pan con tomate. While we waited with our drinks we were brought an amazing amuse bouche and without requesting a lactose free one for me- such a thoughtful gesture. The amuse bouche and the appetizers all were mouthwatering and prepared us for the high level of cuisine to come. Afterwards three of us chose the paella and one the trout. The individual pan paellas came chock full of seafood with the requisite crispy rice at the bottom of the pan! The saffron broth over the trout was so flavorful and the fish well prepared , as were the innovative sides of grilled asparagus and patatas bravas. We felt like honored guests, as the service was attentive and respectful. As we were deciding whether to go on with dessert, they brought a charming special dessert treat of chocolate and cherry filled hearts for the happy couple. What a wonderful end to our special celebration. The gorgeous Spanish guitar music only added to the romance of the evening. We will be back for our next special occasion.
