This is worth the trip to have drinks on the terrace and enjoy the view. The service was outstanding. The food was overpriced and nothing particularly special. With a group of 4 we shared the Caesar salad, gnocchi, Napa cabbage salad, the manzanilla salad, and the shrimp. It was all "ok" but not remarkable. Skip the food and enjoy the drinks and the view! read more

The ambiance was so beautiful The severe were so kind and so attentive they even went out and took picture of us for my special moment where I became a fiance. They give us champagne to celebrate on the house. They were like oh if you want pictures outside we'd be happy to help take them and I didn't know it was because my fiance had put it in the reservation. They were on top of things the food was delicious and very very intimate vibes. read more

The service here is not good. My mom and I came in around 8pm on a Tuesday night for dessert and had to wait 30 minutes after ordering our dessert just to be told that the one we wanted wasn't actually available. After ordering a different one, it took another 30 minutes for that one to be made and it was good, but not worth the wait. The portion was really small, too. Our waitress did not refill our waters at all. We ended up having to go up to the front to ask for our check because she was nowhere to be found. Another waitress handled the check while our original waitress was cleaning the silverware. The restaurant was not busy so the service really should have been better. The inside of the restaurant and rooftop is nice and gives a pretty view of the sunset and city skyline, but the actual building that the restaurant is in feels really outdated. Overall, I was pretty disappointed with this restaurant considering it's located at a nice hotel. I probably would not come back. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for awhile. We came here to celebrate our anniversary, and I'd say this place is a little challenging to get to. It's up on the hill at the hotel with narrow and steep roads and can get congested quick with too many cars. It was dark when we came so it was hard to see where to go, and you have to go up a bunch of stairs, and they had a private event so we weren't sure where the actual restaurant entrance was. When we got to the top of the stairs, the hosts were talking to each other and didn't even greet us when we walked up as they were in the middle of a conversation so we didn't even know if we were in the right place. We had to greet them first, to tell them we had a reservation. Then getting to the table, the views are absolutely stunning here. They welcomed us with 3 different types of bread and 3 different spreads which were all incredible but the focaccia was my favorite. Our server was great and helped recommend some of the most popular dishes and we went with the Prickly pear salmon, the 63 degree egg, and the NY strip. The 63 degree egg appetizer was super unique, flavorful, and delicious I'd highly reccomend that. Then my prickly pear salmon was AMAZING. It was so buttery, and melted in your mouth and was nice and sweet with the prickly pear glaze, and the bamboo rice with it was delicious too. My partner ordered the NY strip and unfortunately he said it was just an okay steak, and had better elsewhere so wouldn't recommend that one. The potato cake was interesting too but almost tasted a little sour like there was sour cream in there, it was still good though. Then they brought us out some chocolates & strusel for our anniversary which was sweet. Water was always filled here, and service at the table was great. Docking a star though for the initial encounter with the hosts was not that great of an experience and I'd expect better at a fine dining establishment like this one, also for the not so great steak. read more

This place has the best view in Phoenix. Has amazing ambiance too. All I can say is WW. This restaurant is tucked away up a hill near a hotel or some sort of Resort.The food was good but the menu is pretty small. The presentation was lovely, as they crisped my salmon's skin and added it as garnish, which tasted like a potato chip-might I add.The waiters were awesome and the drinks were as well. But you'd better have your coins in order if you plan on visiting this place. It's beautiful! Awesome idea for a date night. I would recommend making reservations. The website states that they have a dress code, but I saw people dining that looked as if they had just come from the pool or the club. I would definitely recommend, and will definitely return on my next Phoenix trip. read more

Can't beat the view at this fine dining restaurant! Waitstaff were attentive and had great recommendations. The specials of the day had run out before our reservation, but it goes to show they are highly sought out dishes. Menu was very flavor-forward with layers of delicious components. The scallops and filet were top-notch choices. I was drooling over my friend's steak topped with luscious lobster butter, but wasn't upset that my seafood dish and the addictive pieces of bacon scattered throughout. Grabbed dessert to-go. My friend said the carrot cake was the best she ever had, and my chocolate cheesecake was so rich and smooth. Overall, great experience in all components - atmosphere, service, and food. read more

Okay gang, The food is 100% a la carte, so when you get your 6 oz $60 filet, don't expect it to come with anything - so my wife and I just had hunks of meat, no sides (which are $14-$16/each. That said, they claim to be "shareable" but I'm not paying $14 for mashed potatoes. The view, the atmosphere is super unique, so I do recommend! Maybe eat dinner elsewhere and just get an appetizer and drinks with your reservation? read more

The experience doesn't start inside the restaurant. My beautiful girlfriend and I found the perfect parking spot with a view of the beautiful cityscape. Once we made it to reception they were quick to find our reservation and seated up immediately. I really wish I had the names of the two team members that assisted up with having an amazing night. 02/16/2026 8PM. Thank you to my servers. They welcomed us and had a super friendly vibe. I didn't just feel like a customer, I felt like a guest. Customer service was 10/10. They were extremely attentive and respectful. The food was amazing. From breads, wine, appetizers, entrees, and lastly dessert. Breads were amazing, complemented with a butter, pesto, and sweet fruity cream cheese. Btw they aren't skimpy on the quality of their bread The Malbec we had was amazing, perfect temp, and extremely clean glasses. Making sure the wine was to our liking, my girlfriend and I do enjoy our wines. Big thank you for making my girlfriend happy. Appetizer: FRESH! The beef tartar was fresh, beautifully presented. The love of my life truly enjoyed her Parmesan Black Pepper Gnocchi. OMG you guys elevated our standards of what Gnocchi should taste like. Best way to describe it would be "the softest most light mashed potato as a tiny pillow, covered in a amazing black pepper sauce" Entrees: Beautiful, NY strip was perfect temp, and delicious, potato cake was amazing! My queen had San Marzano Tomato Coconut "Korma". SHE LOVED IT!!! Thank you for assisted me on making our first Valentines Date and dinner amazing! We love you guys!!! Dessert: Not going to lie, we were full but how could we say no. Creme Brûlée was amazing, fresh vanilla seeds were visible, perfectly caramelized crust on top, topped with fresh Raspberries and Blueberries. Thank you guys. OKAY so if you took the time to read my review you are probably asking the price. I was expecting to pay $300+. Nope it was only $230 for a $500 dinning experience. Make sure to tip your servers generously and please just enjoy yourself here. The servers are amazing, the view is spectacular, and lastly it a place that even photos won't do it justice. Thank you team Different Pointe of View for making that night amazing. read more

Different Pointe of View - The view from outside - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

recently visited Different Pointe of View, and while the experience overall was enjoyable, it's clear that you're primarily paying for the stunning view -- not the food. The outdoor patio offers an incredible atmosphere, with breathtaking scenery that truly makes the visit worthwhile. Sitting outside and taking in the views was by far the highlight of the evening. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the setting. The dishes were average at best and seemed like something I could have easily prepared at home. For the premium prices being charged, I expected much higher quality and more creative offerings. That said, I'm glad I had the experience, but this is more of a "go for the view, not for the food" type of spot. Worth a visit if you're looking to enjoy a beautiful evening outdoors -- just temper your expectations when it comes to the meal. read more

Come for the drinks, stay for the sunsets! Having left Zona 20 years ago there are few places I miss. This is one. Staying at the Pointe for a few days to visit friends, we always started the evening at this stellar bar and restaurant. A little on the high end, but not overly, the service quick and friendly, upscale yet casual. The views of downtown, especially at night, are spectacular. One thing about Phoenix are the big skies which lend to incredible sunsets. This night was no exception. Perfect place for a romantic evening or get together with friends, it's a must! read more

This restaurant is perfect for a date night or to celebrate something extra special! The views are spectacular! You get a full city and mountain landscape. Get there early to really take it all in because the moment you step out of your car you'll want to have your camera out! The food was delicious! We had the crispy potatoes, broccolini, & the New York strip (steak was off menu and they may not have it all the time) and I recommend it all! I had the Rickarita to drink which was great! The service was superb and everyone was attentive and kind! Can't wait to be back! read more

Came to Different Pointe of View for the first to celebrate an anniversary and had an awesome experience. Starting off, the view is amazing! The restaurant is located at the top of a mountain and has amazing views from every side. They have balconies and patios to go out on to take pictures and just chill and sip on a drink while enjoying the view. It's very peaceful and beautiful to look at. And the restaurant has a pretty upscale vibe with huge windows that let you see the landscape and PHX downtown while you eat. It's definitely a really good spot to take a date. The waiters and staff are also excellent and very knowledgeable when it comes to the menu. Our waiter gave great recommendations and even though it seemed like he was running the whole floor, it never felt like we had to ask him for something. The food here was excellent as well! Both my girlfriend and I ended up getting their steak as our entree and "the mirage" as the drink. Steak was cooked very well and was really savory and the drink tasted great. They also provide really tasty bread as an appetizer and their dessert was delicious as well. Definitely recommend! read more

The most unprofessional experience in our life. The food and atmosphere is not enough to get away with lack of professionalism and service. Our daughter went there before prom and told the waiter the group had prom plans. The restaurant was having technical issues and couldn't accept credit cards. They were not notified when seated until it was time to pay. The process took so long, they missed their prom completely. You need 2.5 hours to have dinner there, due to the shuttle that needs to be taken in order to even get to the restaurant. This was unbelievable and unacceptable. Our four girls spent $75 on prom tickets they never got to go to. read more

Views are phenomenal, beautiful city lights and romantic dining setting. The service was great, our server was very attentive and friendly.

We stayed at the Hilton Tapatío Resort and decided to try this restaurant. We made a reservation for Sunday but only 830pm was available. We were greeted and seated right away by the friendly host. The service was fantastic, Richard was very helpful and attentive. The food was amazing !! We ordered a lobster bisque, it was one of the best I had and bone marrow which was very tasty. We also had the Prime fillet which was cooked to perfection and risotto was delicious End the night with the Tahitian Vanilla Bean cream brulee. It was heavenly Ambiance was beautiful, it was a perfect night and Richard offered to take a picture of us outside with the city view. Will definitely come back !! read more

To take all aspects into consideration (location, food quality, ambiance, price, service), it's worth it for the entire experience. In comparison, you're going to probably spend around the same amount at other nicer restaurants (the ones with many branches and locations) but for the quality of food you're getting here makes it justifiably worth it. I had dinner with my friends on our weekend trip for total of 5 of us. The service we received was welcoming and kind; they reassured us when our food was coming. I got the pork chop and it was incredibly filling and delicious. When our server said it was the biggest entree on their menu, it's true. I would come again and try more things on their menu. Definitely a great place to go when you're visiting from out of town or you're going to be celebrating an occasion. read more

My husband and I went to Point of View for our 52 nd anniversary last night. We first experienced on our 50 th wedding anniversary and fell in love with the whole experience and decided that each year we would go there to celebrate. Last night was both wonderful and disappointing I ordered the fillet. The presentation was wonderful but the first bite was not the experience I was anticipating The fillet wasn't seasoned at all. Not even salt. Our wonderful waiter, Trevor, asked what was wrong He said no problem I can switch this out for the Chilean Sea Bass (which he knew I had the previous year and loved). I felt terrible about sending the food back but he assured me it was ok. Soon this chef from the kitchen came out with a piece of chiliean sea bass on a plate from the kitchen with none of the sides. No potato cake or vegetable It wasn't pretty at all just a piece of fish on a plain white plate. I didnt say anything because I didn't want to ruin the evening or upset my husband. The Chilean sea bass was fantastic. However I got up the next morning and wished I had said something. I think the dish was around $70 . Some people eat at restaurants such as Pointe of View all the time but for us we only go once a year for a special occasion On a positive note each year we have the same waiter, Trevor. He is wonderful. None of the above was his fault. But if you happen to Go to Pointe of View ask for Trevor read more

Atmosphere and view is bar none, closely followed by the service and solid food. The outdoor patio and floor to ceiling windows indoor give you an absolutely stunning view of the mountains and cityspace. Highly recommend getting a reservation around sunset and getting there a little early to take in the views. Service was amazing! Ian and Tyler took amazing care of us. They came over enough to make us comfortable and and ensure our water was filled but not enough to be annoying. They also clearly explained all the dishes, gave wine pairing recs (Ian is also a somm which was wonderful). Tyler even saw us taking selfies outside and came to take a pic for us with the amazing background! top notch The biggest thing that surprised us was the portion of the food - in a good way! Typically at higher end places the portions are smaller but we left stuffed and even took some home! starting with the bread basket and trio of dips/butter delicious were offered more (complimentary) but made the smart choice to hold off for dinner. We also tried the pork belly app which was huge and could've been a meal on its own. Highly recommend the watermelon salad - so refreshing and flavorful. The duck was tender and paired very well with a nebbiollo and the filet was huge! we greatly enjoyed our experience, easily could have stayed there longer and was surprised the bill was not higher (we live in DC where this dinner would have been 5x what it was) read more

Many places lately charge a premium rate for their foods and deliver a not so premium experience. This is not the case at Different Point of View. The food and service is exceptional.

Notably, it is a very short list and DPOV does not disappoint. read more

Our server Austin gave exceptional service, he was very attentive and made sure we had a wonderful experience.

We ordered the braised pork belly for an appetizer which was ‍ I ordered the Icelandic salmon for my entree and my s/o ordered the duck. The salmon I had was the best salmon I've ever had.

I cannot speak to the decor, views or food. I had a reservation that I made several weeks in advance. Two hours prior to my reservation, I received a call from a staff member confirming my reservation but was told the terrace was booked and I wouldn't be able to access it during my reservation. When I expressed my disappointment- as I am a tourist in town - the staff member became rude. She basically implied me that if I was going to just order "appetizers and drinks" to not come. In addition, she told me that my order had to be placed prior to taking any photos. I had been looking forward to my reservation for weeks, but cancelled after my poor experience with their customer service. read more
