    Came to the viral chicken Caesar wrap place and it was quite good! We got the mac and cheese (delicious), and the Caesar and buffalo wrap. I would get the Caesar wrap again, however the buffalo wrap wasn't buffalo-y enough for my tastebuds and the onion slices were thick! Very cute place with an upscale vibe, on the pricier end, good for a night out! Staff was lovely!

    Went for a very special occasion and tried this place out for the first time. Alea was our server and was very sweet and Accommodating to every request! If you come, please ask for her and you'll be guaranteed a great time with good service and even better food :)

    Wonderful place. Great ambience and the bartender is a sweetheart. Gigi was so helpful in choosing what to order and what drinks to pair with it. Food was amazing. Love that the tots are done in Beef Tallow instead of oil. The Happy Hour is unbeatable. We will definitely be back!

    We've been to Born & Bred in Chandler, thought it was pretty good and this would be a nice "meeting the middle" spot to connect with some friends who live on the other side of town. Overall, meh, here's why... *Service: friendly, nice, prompt, attentive. * Food: Relatively mediocre. For a place that has a pizza oven, it didn't seem like they've spent enough time designing the pizza itself to taste amazing. The margarita pizza was average in flavor, texture, ingredients and overall enjoyment. My Pork Bolognese was simply "alright spaghetti", tasted fine, nothing outstanding, exciting or noteworthy. Another person got the Aftermath burger, it looked great, he said it was decent but didn't like the bun, said it was "a lot of bread". The Chicken Caesar Wrap looked decent and two in our party said it was good, but nothing terribly special. *Ambience: It's a smaller, more intimate setting than the Chandler's far more open, modern and energetic feel. This isn't a bad thing. Integrated bar and dining area. Clean, decent. Nothing spectacular, or terrible, comfortable and nice. *Value: The menu items aren't priced excessively, they just weren't great, so the value feels lower than it likely is. *Overall: solid three stars. Good service, decent atmosphere, decent food, acceptable value. I wouldn't rush back, but wouldn't avoid it.

    Not my pizza cause I ate mine already but you can see this is fab!

    Came on Tuesday and they have happy hour all day! Got a strawberry mocktail. It was good. Also got the burger and it was delicious. Also my sister got the ceaser wrap and it was good.

    I came here around 4:00pm on a Friday with a friend after a fun afternoon of shopping. Our server took our order without writing it down. She later came back to verify our order, and she had remembered it wrong. We were skeptical that our food would come out correctly, but fortunately it did! We got the Aftermath burger on happy hour, which came with one burger patty instead of two. We had tried the jalapeño burger at Aftermath not long before and loved it, so we had high expectations for this one. The burger patty was consistent and had the same crispy edge that we enjoyed. We added the beef tallow fries as a side to the burger, and they were pretty good. We also tried the Margherita pizza. The crust held up well. There was not enough mozzarella though. Some slices had a good amount, and others barely had any. The pizza was decent overall, but I wouldn't order it again.

    I was so excited to try the Caesar wrap here, however the lack of chicken and dressing, made it a little underwhelming. The wrap definitely has potential, as the restaurant was encompassed with wonderful, fresh bread smells. The accompaniment of pasta salad was an interesting choice and not something I got to pick. I wanted to add avocado to the wrap, but they forgot it. The service was great though and carry out was perfect. The wrap did not get soggy and the lettuce and cheese tasted fresh and light.

    This place is fantastic. Amazing drinks, amazing happy hour, amazing service. Our bartender, Gigi, was so fun and helped steer us towards some delish menu options. The smash burger was a hit, and the ceasar wrap with the pepperoni pizza crust was so unique and delicious. Was my first time visiting and I'm now a Big fan of this spot, excited to return on my next az trip!

    What is Born & Bred all about? Good food and great customer service. The location was recommended by one of the locals and I'm glad we gave them a try. The atmosphere is chill and restaurant offers plenty of indoor and patio seating. We visited during brunch and were not disappointed by the food variety. Their menu was tailored to fit the time of day. We ordered the breakfast sandwich and breakfast bowl. The only negative was they didn't have coffee available and we had to wait until some was brewed. For a place that is open for brunch, coffee is a must. Both the bowl and the sandwich were delicious and the eggs were cooked perfectly on the sandwich and bowl. The short ribs in the bowl were perfectly seasoned and added a nice touch to the meal. The sandwich was served on a huge plate with a side of fruit and because of the plate size, made the entree seem small (which it was not). Looked odd to get such a big plate for a breakfast sandwich. Overall, the restaurant is good for all times of the day and serve up delicious meals with decent prices. Give them a try!

    Stopped in while visiting town. Came mid afternoon on a Sunday so we were provided with the brunch menu. I went into it thinking I wanted the Caesar wrap. However after learning it may be a bit anchovy heavy I decided against it. The antipasto salad was a great substitute for getting my greens. The pizza was also fairly tasty. It was fairly dark inside for an afternoon. I wish they had offered at least a pasta on their brunch menu. I really wanted to check that out. The service was fairly helpful. Only disappointment was a can of soda so I wasn't able to get refills of that.

    My family was visiting from Chicago and had seen the Chicken Caesar wrap on TikTok, so we were excited to finally try it. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm--our server was friendly and attentive, and Chef Kareem truly made the experience memorable with a surprise dessert at the end, We ordered a variety of dishes, including the Godfather pizza (my personal favorite), the Americano with sausage, and a classic cheese pizza. Everything was delicious, but the real standouts for our table were the garlic knots bread service and the meatballs--both were absolute hits. To wrap up the evening, my father ordered an Old Fashioned, I had a cosmopolitan, and my mother enjoyed a lemon drop. While the drinks were well-made, they leaned more on the sour side; I tend to prefer sweeter cocktails, so that's just something to keep in mind depending on your taste. Overall, Born n Bred offers a beautiful, dimly lit atmosphere that's perfect for a cozy family dinner or a relaxed night out. We had a great experience and would definitely return.

    Came back here with my lovely girlfriend again last month, joined this time by my mom and her boyfriend Eric. We had a great time overall, it was quieter night for the restaurant and the music was chill. Our server was accommodating and we never waited too long for anything. I just drank some water but my girlfriend tried one of their specialty cocktails called Lady Luck. My mom had their German beer which was called Hefeweizen/ Halfway to Hefen. I had kept seeing the Aftermath burger all across my instagram timeline and I was glad to finally try it, it was delicious and did live up to my hype for it, though it was pretty pricy. I would get it again though if I came back here. My girlfriend got the Ragazzo pizza, which came with barbecue sauce, red onion, grilled chicken and cilantro, that she quite enjoyed as well. I had advocated for our table to order the crème brûlée cheesecake this time around (I'd had it my prior time here, and couldn't stop thinking about it since) though we ultimately decided to go to Handel's next door instead. Our experience here was overall pretty pleasant and the food is definitely the main factor drawing us back to this place, besides the fact that the interior is nice and clean, and the service is always more hit than miss.

    When we first discovered this spot back when it was Liquor Pig, we came specifically to try some…read morecocktails, and then spontaneously ordered the bone marrow poutine on a whim. What we didn't realize at the time was that we had stumbled upon one of those dishes that would stick with us! So when Liquor Pig closed, we were genuinely sad to see it go, but then delighted to learn that the same chef was spearheading Wayward and, most importantly, that the legendary bone marrow poutine made its way onto the new menu. And thankfully, it's still just as memorable! The bone marrow is incredibly luscious, rich, and decadent, and the whole dish is the perfect indulgent pairing for Wayward's creative cocktails. The portion is also a great size for two people to share, especially since it's definitely a rich dish. We also tried the Jaew Chicken which was tasty and definitely a little different from what I'd normally order. It was a nice addition to the meal, but honestly, the poutine is the reason we'll keep coming back to this place! While walking through the restaurant, I noticed quite a few tables enjoying the bone in short rib taco board and those portions are serious. That platter could easily feed four people, so it's definitely something to keep in mind if you're dining with a group. All in all, I'm happy that Wayward has kept one of my favorite dishes from the Liquor Pig days alive. If you're looking for creative cocktails with something rich and indulgent to snack on, do yourself a favor and order the bone marrow poutine!

My family and I came to check it out, and we all really enjoyed it. The menu is such a cool fusion of Asian and Mexican/Latin flavors -- definitely different, but in the best way. We ordered the pork carnitas board, and it was AWESOME. Calling it "carnitas" almost doesn't do it justice because the pork reminded me more of a super meaty pork belly -- tender, flavorful, and there was a TON of it. There were four of us sharing, and we still had leftovers! The homemade blue corn tortillas were amazing, and I loved all the different sauces. They had that Asian-fusion flavor with a Latin spin that somehow just worked. And give me ALL the pickled veggies! The pickled slaw and vegetables added that perfect tangy crunch to the rich pork and really balanced everything out. The kimchi rice on the side was another fun touch and went perfectly with the whole meal. It's a small, laid-back spot, and there was a one-man band playing acoustic guitar and singing some great classic songs while we were there, which made the atmosphere even better. Nothing stuffy or overdone -- just relaxed, good food, good music, and a really enjoyable night. Definitely glad TikTok led us to this little hidden gem. I'm happy we tried it, and I would absolutely go back!

Now I realize that the 2026 was a Summer Olympics and Curling is part of the Winter Olympics, but we didn't care Upon entry to go to the host stand and tell them what you're looking to do (activities vs bar/waiting). The space is relatively open and you can immediately see the fully stocked bar, the bowling area, the back axe throwing lanes, and the enclosed curling lanes. We opted for a package that got us unlimited games (any) for an hour. We started with curling and we didn't need any special clothes or shoes. We were lead to a lane and it's set up like shuffleboard (you can stand on either side and there's two separate color stones). There's ice where you glide your stones and you stand on rubber for traction. You can glide by hand or use a piece of equipment that is essentially a stick to help push and guide your stone. There's an attendant on duty to help any stones that are stuck or that don't make it down the lane The experience was awesome. We've always wanted to try curling, but it's difficult to find somewhere that is set up to let you do that. We were amazed that we finally tried it in a desert of all places. There are no brushes like in typical curling, but you still get a sense of the Olympic activity. The bowling was fun too, but it's a smaller version like you might see in some novelty bars. Axe throwing was that of typical ax throwing. You had a couple different sizes of axes, there's lanes and you throw at a wooden target. They had computers to input your name and keep track of points. It was sometimes difficult to stick the wooden target, but it was fun We didn't try the food or drink, but everything looked good. The staff were very helpful. It was a weekend, and it wasn't overly crowded which was nice. Overall it was a fun experience Some tips: If your stones seem to be getting stuck down the lane, ask the attendant to move you to another lane. That's what we did and it made all the difference Explore the rest of bustling Old Town Scottsdale. There's literally something for everyone, and definitely check out the Frybread Lounge for some great Native American fusion cuisine Chee

There is a lovely huge lighting fixture in the corner, and an atrium with tables and lots of hanging plants. There's a bar and a couple of lounge areas with sofas and TVs. We ordered a sparkling water and a peroni beer. The water was more than the beer surprisingly. For appetizer we ordered the Roman Style Meatballs and Agreed Provolone Sticks.

My son ordered the Godfather sandwich, served with house made potato chips and a pickle. I didn't try his, but he said it was quite good. For dessert we got chocolate chip gelato with a delicious lemony cookie. Our server was polite and attentive. He added the nice touches--every time he came to check on us he ruled our glasses from the bottles on out table. I would say everything was fine at Sexy Roman.

On top of being on his knowledge game, he was extremely attentive and handled our table of 7 with ease all while having a full section. He made our dinner so fun, being playful but without skipping a beat on his work duties. You could tell the other tables were enjoying him as well. As mentioned, the food was wonderful per usual, you can never go wrong with their raw bar. Extremely fresh and tasty. I will continue to frequent Pinyon, and I now will probably skip the bar and ask to be seated in Jordan's section any chance I get.

    Had my birthday dinner here and I couldn't have picked a better place! We sat at the bar upstairs…read moreand service was excellent. It was busy but didn't feel over packed. We got the filet hummus and the pita bread , it was delicious. Tons of flavor and good portion. The pitas and hummus is a must! 10/10! The shrimp ant risotto was also very good cooked perfectly. The baklava cheesecake is the best I am so glad we got it I am not a fan of sweets but this is just the perfect balance. They were sweet and put my name of their birthday board. Great find and would come back here many many times.

    Dodo Bird Kitchen and Cocktails has been on my list of places to try for Happy Hour, Wing…read moreWednesday, Oyster Thursday and Tomahawk night!! Let me start off by saying my first 2 visits were not the best. In fact, This place was sitting on a 3 star rating for a while, but my last visit picked up and made up a little. I waited to wrote this review in hopes that they would redeem themselves from my first 2 visits. The first time I came, I had Lemon Pepper Wings which came to me after a very long wait. When I finally got them, they were basically naked wings, like without any seasoning. I asked for the seasoning and one of the bussers came and brought me a cup of it. I sprinkled the wings with it but when I took a bite, they were SALTY AF!!!!! I then had to shake off all the seasoning to be able to finish them. SMH. I also ordered some Sweet Potato Fries which oddly came to me within about 3 minutes. I almost finished them before I finally got the wings. I was seated at the bar and since it was packed, I sat in the only open seat which happened to be between 2 gentlemen. The guy to my left was ready to go and when he asked for his bill, they had charged him for my stuff. Super weird because we clearly weren't together and I wasn't even talking to him the entire time. He kindly alerted them and they adjusted his bill. My second visit the next day wasn't any better. Went in with 2 coworkers for $1 oysters and Happy Hour. We ordered some cocktails which took forever again, and when we asked about them, we were told they didn't have the blended margaritas ready, so she offered us on the rocks instead. We said okay since we were thirsty on a Thursday. We tasted each other's drink and they tasted exactly the same, even though we ordered different ones. I also ordered a 2nd round of 6 oysters for myself which I never got. I had to let our server know that I never got them, so she took them off the bill. Our server wasn't very friendly and she just looked like she wanted to leave. My 3rd and latest visit is when I had the Tomahawk. My friend and I started off with oysters, then ordered their huge Tomahawk, which came with a variety of sauces and a side of French Fries. This time, we came in a little later, around 730 pm or so. It wasn't as busy, so maybe that's the perfect time to go. Service was great that last time, and our drinks were perfect. Overall, it's a cool place and the decor is pretty gnarly, but I feel like they do need to work out some kinks. Prices are average but Happy Hour is where it's at. The Tomahawk special is $99 on Mondays and Tuesdays I believe, and they come with 2 large sides (we went on a Thursday so we didn't get that special). The last visit brought up my 3 stars to a 4. I'll come again, but I hope they stay consistent!
