Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in North Central Phoenix

Had the opportunity to take my daughter, her husband and their French foreign exchange student to dinner with my wife and I. All three are vegetarian while my wife and I are not. Everyone was able to find exceptional dishes that exceeded their expectations. This has become one of our favorite restaurants in Phoenix and its proximity to Sky Harbor makes for a great place to take folks from out of town when arriving in the late afternoon or early evening. Never disappoints

Loved the atmosphere and wonderful service. And the food was delicious!

From the moment we arrived starting with the valet parking to the moment we left, the entire night was amazing!

We truly enjoyed Bluewater Grill. Our server (Maddie) was excellent. She was funny, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The food was really good. I had the seafood Louis salad. It was too much for me to finish and had lots of crab and shrimp along with fresh greens, avocado, egg, tomatoes, cucumber s, and a great dressing. My wife had the almond crusted trout almandine. They served it with a caper lemon butter that was delicious. We also had the oysters Rockefeller as an appetizer. It was also good. The star of the evening was the warm crusty sourdough bread and butter that rivaled San Francisco sourdough. It was so amazing that we bought a loaf to bring home and bake here. Great restaurant with lots of fish options. Reasonable prices and welcoming staff. We are going back there soon.

“One bite transported back to Rome!” My friend told me about this place and urged me to visit and compare with my recent trip to Italy. I am so glad I listened! I ordered the Carbonara, the Bucatini was perfectly cooked and the Guanciale was a great addition to balance out the entire dish (ok I’m getting hungry again), my friend had a spaghetti with red sauce she said had the perfect amount of sauce the was so flavorful. We enjoyed a bottle of Amarone and great conversations with the bartender JP and GM Steph. This place is so welcoming we will be back to try the pizza, that the table behind us was raving about!
