The Dodo is definitely a gem in this area. Its decor is beautiful and very intimate. There are beautiful paintings and pictures on each wall and the lights are super cute in the bar and eating areas. There are also lots of plants around to offer a balance of green and brown to the scenery. During our time here, there was a large party taking about half the dining area so the service times were impacted. We came in as a party of 5 with a wait time of about 20 minutes. This was totally fine since we did not have a reservation. During the wait, we partook in their game area which helped us pass the time. All the games were fun, free, and open! Our food was pretty good. I ordered the wings, Caesar salad, and broccolini. The wings were of good size and flavor. The Caesar salad was pretty decent, but the amount of lemon in the dressing was a bit overpowering. I was making pucker faces as I was eating and let my girlfriend finish the salad. She agreed that the lemon was much stronger than other salads, but she enjoys lemon so she was okay with it. I tried her Wagyu cheeseburger (happy hour meal) and unfortunately both of us felt like the meat itself was lacking lots of flavor. My sister ordered the OG chicken sandwich and she said it needed more sauce for flavor. I will confidently say my favorite food of the night was broccolini. The cook was perfect and the flavor was great! I would recommend that side to everyone! As I stated before, there was a large party during our meal, so service time was admittedly slower than expected and we had to remind our server to bring us spoons for our desert, for a to go box, and for a water refill. Since it was busy and packed, I understand it could be difficult so I won't judge it too harshly. I will say one of the food runners, Shaye, supported our table and was very kind and understanding when we flagged her down for something. She really made our experience that much better with her attitude and speed! Given all of the information above, 4/5. Improvements on the food would make it 5 stars for me. read more

Went back again for their steak frites special ($20 on Mondays and Tuesdays 3pm-close). We had kind of a large group (11) without a reservation (which we should have but it was not a planned event). They were able to accommodate us although the hostess was a little rude as we could've just went somewhere else if there was no room. All of us ordered the steak frites and a lot of ours had really big fat pieces so there actually wasn't much "meat." In comparison to the first time we went here, the steak the first time was much better. They also changed the chimichurri recipe which was needed and was really good this time. A few people got the dole whip boozy marg. They said it was a 3/5 as it was inconsistent drink to drink, ex: one got cherry, one didn't; one was more watery than another one. They said they wouldn't get it again. Overall it was a little disappointing compared to my first visit, especially with most of us only being able to eat half our steak. They also changed the plating to the wooden boards which were kind of warped so when we were cutting our steaks, it was shaking the table a lot. read more

Dodobird in Scottsdale is a unique restaurant as it blends a sports vibe and romantic vibe in one. They have really good menu deals throughout the week. We tried the $20 steak frites deal on one visit, and the slugger deal on a different visit. Both times did not disappoint! The steak frites was very flavorful and came with different dipping sauces. The Slugger was humongous and I couldn't not finish the whole thing. The staff was kind and courteous throughout both trips. read more

Came for their streak frites deal on Wednesdays, which is $20 per plate. We got 2 and also a plate of the charred broccolini. The steak was a tad overdone but still tasty. The sauces provided were just okay, but overall the meal was solid. The broccoli was a bit over charred and over salted, but again, it didn't ruin the meal. We ate well. The restaurant was not super busy, there were empty tables around us, but we did not get checked on once, and had to ask a different server for our check, after sitting with empty places for 20 minutes. I do want to come back for their Thursday oyster deal! read more

This place has a fun chill hipster vibe and is a great place to go especially if you plan on having a couple of drinks. The service was good and our server was friendly. It was busy on wing Wednesday unfortunately but as to be expected. Taste: 7/10 Value: 7/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Service: 9/10 Cleanliness: 8/10 Overall I probably would not want to go back but I did not have a bad experience by any means. It is just not the atmosphere I am in the mood for lately which is just my personal preference. If you are into the hipster/brewery vibe this place would be great to visit especially on their wing Wednesday! read more

I saw several Instagram posts about Dodo Bird Kitchen and Cocktails and decided to give it a try--and I'm so glad I did. This is officially my new date spot with my husband. It's seriously that good. I started with the crispy buffalo cauliflower, which was amazing. I also ordered the "adult happy meal," upgraded the drink to their famous Dirty Bird martini, and swapped the fries for broccolini. The burger and broccolini were both fantastic. I also tried the tiger shrimp tacos--again, amazing flavor. My only complaint is that you only get three tacos with one shrimp each and no sides, which felt a bit limited. We finished with the chicken wings, and I have to say--even my husband, who normally won't eat bone-in wings, loved them. That alone says a lot. The only real downside for me was the martini. The taste didn't quite hit the mark, and the portion was pretty small for the price. Overall, the food here is incredible across the board, with just a couple minor drawbacks. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to. read more

We're in from out of town and chose to dine at Dodo Bird for one of our dinners - and I'm glad we did! We had a reservation and were originally seated under a vent that was blowing really cold air right on us. We were moved right away. They have a really cool cocktail book. There are photos of all of the specialty cocktails, along with the descriptions. It's like a soft leather booklet with embossed or stamped writing on the front. Just something different! Our server made some cocktail and food recommendations and we made our choices. Everything was delicious! The only reason I didn't give five stars is because the service was pretty sporadic. Our server was great when she was there though! A bit of time could go by without us seeing her. The vibe is cool! It also looks like a good place to sit at the bar and we'd probably opt for that next time. We'd more than likely go back when we're in town again! read more

So, if you've seen this place on Instagram and you actually think it might be good, it is. We too, we were influenced. Does it look like a spot for a bachelorette party? Sure. But look past it and you'll be fine. The adult happy meal is a really great deal. If you're looking for something to please everyone. We had great service throughout the dinner and our water glasses were never empty. One of our parties ordered the grilled chicken wrap that can EASILY serve two people. The menu is limited, but you also won't know what to choose. read more

For starters, I heard about this $20 steak frites on insta gram and thought wow, What a great deal! I was sorely mistaken. My steak originally came out cold, and for the first time ever I tried to send it back, little did I know that was a bad idea. They just put my steak back on the grill and over cooked it. The server noticed I was unhappy and asked if I wanted them too cook another one completely and i didnt want to be that guy but I agreed. I ordered it medium rare and the second steak (3rd time I was served) was severely undercooked and filled with fat. I would like to say my girlfriend's burger was truly amazing and worth going back for but I wouldn't recommend a steak. Most of the reviews that are bad are about the steak and how it only has fat and barely any meat. The server was also very sweet and apologetic about it but not much she can do, the GM that by the was gave me a totally half hearted walk by apology is the one I actually blame for the whole ordeal. He was not professional and basically ignored me and the table next to me that also sent there steak back for the same reason. All in all unless you're looking for a good burger in a dimly lit cathedral vibe I wouldn't come here. Just go to rt Sullivans! I'm giving it two stars because of the cool chandelier that was a birds nest. read more

$20 steak got me there, first time, last time. The steak was ok, not much seasoning the sauces were kinda bland. Chimchurri was ok, the peppercorn? Just tasted like grease. Too much fat on this steak for me. And then a $1 charge for a side of bbq? And what's up with restaurant fees. Gave it a try. Should've gone to Roaring Fork. read more

Found this spot while browsing Yelp for a happy hour/dinner location during our most recent trip to Scottsdale. Their happy hour menu and daily specials, along with the awesome looking vibes, made Dodo Bird a must try for us! They are located in a strip mall with plenty of parking in front. Their signage is very prominent, and they have a chalkboard menu out front with their daily special and happy hour menu. There is also a large dodo bird statue by the door so you know you're in the right place! Once inside, you forget you're in a strip mall bar-the decor is chic but fun, with lots of plants and art, prominently featuring dodos. There is plenty of seating: low booths, high top tables, and a large bar in the middle with high chairs for close to 18 people. There are several TVs, and they seemed accommodating when people asked to switch to certain games. They have an electronic darts game, Pop-A-Shot, and a Skeech table as well. Their bathrooms are also super clean! The service was great right from the start: Monica greeted us and was quick to give us the rundown of how long they have been open, and her favorite menu items-she even made a point to ask what we ended up with and how our experience was. Our waitress, Bailey, was super attentive, gave us great recommendations, and was very patient with us as we snapped photos of our items. Onto the main event-the drinks and food! Here is what we tried: *DRINKS* - Hot & Bothered (Mi Campo Blanco, Ancho Reyes Verde, Watermelon, Lime, Agave): Loved this to kick off the night! Perfectly balanced heat and refreshing watermelon-I recommend having this before you eat, so it doesn't overpower the flavors. - Naughty by Nature (Grey Goose Vodka, St. Germaine, Strawberry, Basil, Lemon, Ginger Ale): This was delicious! Not too sweet, and the ginger ale makes it taste light. Will definitely order again. - Negroni Bianco (Gray Whale Gin, Luxardo Bitter Bianco, Lillet Rose): I've tried negronis in the past and they haven't been my favorite. This take was a bit different (it was clear) and it was good, but very alcohol forward. - Counterfeit Cantaloupe (Bacardi Rum, Watermelon Liquor, Orange, Lime, Fee Foam, Bitters): YUM! This was really refreshing, and the tropical flavor was perfect. Definitely order this! *FOOD* - Cauliflower KFC (Crispy Cauliflower, Hot Sauce, Dill & Buttermilk Dressing, Bleu Cheese Crumbles): WOW. This was by far one of our favorite iterations of crispy cauliflower. The seasoning was flavorful, the amount of breading was a perfect ratio, and the cauliflower was cooked perfectly; the sauces were also super tasty! If you only order one appetizer, let this be it. - Crispy Spicy Tuna Bites (Ahi Sushi, Spicy Aloi, Avocado Jalapeno, Rice Cake, Sweet Soy): These were decent; the rice was a bit crispier than I've had at other places, but the flavor was good. Be sure to get some extra sides of sauce for dipping. - Short Rib Chili Dumplings (Handmade, Beef Short Rib, Onion, Sesame Soy Garlic): A must order!! These pack so much flavor, and the sauce is an incredible complement. The short rib filling is moist and tasty. Seriously, I could have eaten another order with zero regrets. - Steak Frites (New York Strip, Hand Cut Fries, Peppercorn Au Poivre or Chimichurri): The Monday Special is $20 for their Steak Frites which was a great deal! This was a good entree to split-I only wish we had ordered our steak medium rare as it was more medium plus, but it was still yummy! We also upgraded to the Truffle Fries (Hand Cut Fries, Truffle Oil, Parmesan) and though they brought us regular fries, they quickly grabbed our truffle fries which were hot and crispy. The truffle oil was prominent, but not over-powering. Big thanks again to Bailey, Monica, and the whole team for a delightful first experience at Dodo Bird! Top-tier food and service make this a permanent part of our yearly Scottsdale itinerary from now on! read more

Stopped by this spot in Scottsdale and had a really nice experience overall! The space is super trendy and thoughtfully designed. It has lots of fun details themed to the extinct Dodo bird. The cocktail menu is probably the star of the show! It has great visuals and names for each drink. I did not try any of these but if I did, I would have tried their take on a matcha espresso martini! They also have a couple of mocktails if you're not drinking. Our group tried a few different things including the Clucker Wrap, Chicken Salad, and I went with the All-American Wagyu Burger. Everything was solid! Great flavors and very aesthetically pleasing presentation. Burger was juicy and satisfying and the others at the table seemed happy with their choices too. I liked the onions and pickles. Only critique would be I wish there was some lettuce or tomatoes (I'm sure it probably exists as an add-on). Our server was attentive and prompt, checking in at the right times and making sure drinks and food came out smoothly. I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu, especially during their weekly specials and happy hours! read more

This place probably has the best specials in all of Scottsdale. On Wednesday they have 50 cent wings. The wings were crispy and really big. I had the buffalo and the sweet chili. I wish the wings were cooked mower well done. Next time I will make sure I ask them this. On Wing Wednesday they don't allow you to take wings home. I also ordered the Dodo Slugger. It's a 20 inch hot dog. When they dropped it off at the table I started to laugh because how big it was. They toasted the bread so it didn't fall apart when eating it. The hot dog was all beef and it was good quality. I ordered a few cocktails as well. They had a banana old fashion that was really unique. From the outside the shopping center was under construction, but when you walk in the atmosphere is dark cocktail lounge vibe. They had cool art work on the walls. read more

*Review from Aug 2025* I had a double date with friends when they had 50% off the menu. The deal seemed great and it was our first time dining here. We ordered a bunch of dishes to try: -dumplings -wings -chicken sandwiches -meatballs Everything was mid. The dumplings were decent. The wings and chicken sandwiches were unfortunately really dry. The meatballs were really mushy and the texture was off. My husband tried one of the cocktails and it wasn't very good. I was excited about the sweet potato waffle fries because there aren't many restaurants that offer this, but it was too salty. Service was good but we were unimpressed with the food. read more

We've been here once or twice before but I didn't Yelp it. Overall, this place is worth coming by and enjoying a drink & meal. I was surprised how busy it was on a Monday evening. We didn't make a rez cause it's a Monday!! But apparently this is needed at Dodo Bird. Good for them! The bar was completely full and we were added to the list for a table. Didn't wait too long, about 15 minutes. However, food did take a while to come out. Their weeknight deals seem to be working on getting people in. We came for the Monday Steak out deal - steak frites (NY strip & fries) for $20. I decided I didn't also want a steak, so I opted for the All American Wagyu burger and fries. So glad I did! Loved the burger!! Really great flavor and it's a double burger which I wasn't expecting. Made it perfect for us to share both things. Although I didn't love the steak. It lacked seasoning, and I can't imagine it wasn't salted, bigger unfortunate thing is it was overcooked. We asked for medium rare, and it was almost medium well. And 2 orders of fries was a bit much, these are thick fries. If I had noticed on the menu other sides as options, I would have changed mine. Service was overall solid and I liked our server. Also, personally, yes please do leave a pitcher of water on the table. That way I don't wait long for more water. I wish more places did this. I enjoyed the Banana Old Fashioned from the brown & bold cocktail menu. I want to come back next time for the Thursday sip & shuck oyster deal, and if these are good quality for $1/each then I'll happily update to 5 stars. read more

Ambiance, service & food was great. Perfect meeting mid-week with a good friend to catch up and enjoy a good meal & conversation. Sat at the bar on this trip and enjoyed both a frozen and on the rocks margarita. Both were good. Talking with all 3 bartenders throughout and mingling with others was a great vibe. To eat, I went with the All American Burger, which uses wagyu chuck I believe, with some classic fries. I added a few things like bacon and an egg with it, and it was good. I'd like to see some more fries come with it, as they were just ok. I don't think I got the best batch, more like the bottom batch of fries. Definitely planning to return as they do a lot of great specials throughout the week with food and drinks. Tues... margaritas, Wed Wings, Oysters on thurs & happy hour from 3-6 pm has some great items I'm looking forward to trying. read more

Went to Dodo Bird after seeing some reviews and it was excellent. From the outside it looks like it could just be another strip mall bar, but once inside and the food arrived, it was clear this place was on a different, more well curated level. This ended up being one of those "how is this place this good?" experiences. *Service: the service was stellar. Ella was our server, and this was the second time we've had her, months apart, and she was just as wonderful both times. Super sweet, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. She was always there when we needed her, regularly checking in with just a glance as she walked by, but never hovering. It felt natural and effortless. I could not have asked for better service. *Food: the food was outstanding across the board. Shockingly good for what most people would assume is just a strip mall bar, nope, it's great. The onion bloom was gigantic and delicious. Deep fried, crispy, great sauce, and more than enough for four people to share. The $99 tomahawk steak was absolutely awesome. Humongous, cooked perfectly, well seasoned, juicy, hot, and already sliced for you on a beautiful cutting board delivered to your table. Not exaggerating, the bone was over two feet long. See photos. It was phenomenal. We went to a world class Brazilian steakhouse just days after this, and I would come back here for this tomahawk steak ten out of ten times before going back there. That's shocking for me to hear myself say, but it's absolutely true. We also ordered the "adult happy meal" and it was fantastic. An amazing deal that includes a double smash-cheese burger that was juicy, warm, creamy, Smokey and delicious, thick cut meaty steak fries that were seasoned perfectly, and includes a beer or well drink, all for $20. All the food was excellent. The short rib dumplings were another hit. Chewy dumpling wrappers, stellar meat inside, and a sauce that tied everything together beautifully. Every dish was fresh, well made, and built with quality ingredients. Nothing felt rushed or average. *Ambiance: the atmosphere is modern but very comfortable. Lots of little white lights that make the space feel dim, warm, and glowing. The restaurant wraps around the bar in a large U shape, with plenty of TVs and sports playing, and tons of barstools in the middle, but comfy booths on the outside. It felt energetic but still relaxed and easy to settle into. *Value: between the quality of the food, the portions, the great service, the pricing, and especially things like the adult happy meal and their happy hour offerings, the value here is excellent. I left feeling like what we got far exceeded what we paid. *Overall: this place is outstanding. Incredible service, warm and comfortable atmosphere, and outstanding food across the board. The fact that this exists in a strip mall is almost unbelievable. I want to come back over and over just to work my way through their menu and all their specials. I couldn't be happier we found this place. They have incredible happy hour throughout the week, we want to come back every day and try all of their different specials. Highly recommend this place! You'd be doing yourself a disservice to miss it. read more

I've been to Dodo a couple of times now for happy hour and brunch since moving so close by and it's always a great time. The inside is super cute with a modern vibe and I love the little touches of bird cages and fun decor. Sometimes they have a DJ going which creates a nice upbeat vibe. The prices are reasonable especially during happy hour or on their bottomless drinks. Food wise I'm in love with their Buffalo cauliflower & spicy tuna crispy rice. A super solid local spot with tasty food, also cocktails & friendly service. read more

Where do I even start--the wait, the service, or the food? After years of coming here, it's obvious new management has completely ruined this place. We had reservations for two, yet the hostess seemed clueless that reservations even existed. We watched multiple parties get seated before us while we waited at the bar. Both bartenders were rude and acted like ordering a simple beer was an inconvenience. When the food finally arrived, my steak was mostly fat, and the margarita was one of the worst I've ever had. The entire staff gave off an attitude that they simply don't care. Service is nonexistent, food quality has gone downhill, and management has clearly lost control. Scottsdale has too many great restaurants to waste your time and money here. We won't be back. read more

So Yelpers...here an intriguing gem of a place to check out and hey....if you're lucky, you may see me dining... Get atmosphere. As soon as you park and start your walk to the front. It's nice and open. Window view style...they have great seating but I prefer the bar. The customer service was tip top. Quick and prompt...also educational...lol Now about the food. I didn't know what to try at first. It all looked delicious...and thanks to instagram and sometimes being out in Scottsdale..I figured, why not...and this was why...the food and drinks were superb. Specially the broccolini...lmmfao Thank you Dodo BK&C. Hopefully this brings in more and believe me. It's worth a 45mins drive to sit and dine. So come and check this place out!!! Thank you again!!! I will be back... read more

The food was truly delicious and the waitress was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. We got the Tuesday night Steak and Frits. That said, the wait time for our food was over an hour, which was not acceptable. When we spoke with the manager, he explained that one of their ovens had broken earlier in the day, contributing to the delay. While we understand that unexpected issues happen, it would have been helpful to be informed upon arrival so we could have made an informed decision about staying. To their credit, the manager did offer a $10 discount off the total bill due to the long wait, turned out to be around 10 percent off the bill. Despite the delay, we would still recommend the restaurant for the quality of the food and service, and would consider returning in the future with the hope of a smoother experience. read more

I love the themes of the restaurant, unfortunately the oysters aren't as fresh as i'd like. Would recommend, probably wouldn't return.

First time at Dodo Bird and we really enjoyed it! The ambiance is great, welcoming for everyone, and the decor is amazing. The drinks are reasonably priced, not "Scottsdale" priced, which was a nice surprise, and they were also pretty and delicious. The staff was really friendly, and we even got a complimentary sushi roll! We sat at the bar, and the bartender kept giving us great drink recommendations throughout the night. Everything was great from the atmosphere to the service, drinks, and food. Definitely going back! read more

The soft serve margarita is worth the hype, the food wasn't good- fries are easy but these were overcooked. The wings were nothing special.

I like Dodobird but they go crazy with the up charges and don't give you any warnings... During our last experience at Dodobird, they charged me once for a soda water with free refills (like every other restaurant does) and there was no up charge to sub fries for broccolini on the steak frites. This time around, they literally charged me every time I ordered a refill on soda water with no warning at all and charged $7 to sub broccolini. We would have just appreciated a warning on the no free refills or the significant up charges. There needs to be consistency with what you charge guests. Not to mention there was also a 3% restaurant service fee. We left with a bad taste in our mouth. read more

Dinner for my sister's birthday was great! We ordered glasses of wine from happy hour and an order of the short rib dumplings which was first and really good. Monday is 32oz Tomahawk special of $99 with a salad, two sides, and a dessert. What a great deal. The food was so good. I ordered the fries and brocolini for the sides which were both cooked perfectly. They ha e fresh cut fries which I love. The Tomahawk was cooked medium well like we asked. The butter cake was ok. It was a little too dense but the ice cream was good. The staff and Jamie the GM were great. The ambiance was pretty chill at first but got a little more lively after about an hour when more people showed up. I especially appreciate the daily specials they offer that match the quality and quantity of food. I will be making my way back sooner than later. read more

Upon hearing rave reviews from my family about this place I chose to have my birthday dinner here last night. It was a miss for me, and here is why... Ordered a soda - it was a can. A $4 can of soda. How does a restaurant with a full bar only have canned soda? Took advantage of it being wing Wednesday - we had a party of 8, 7 out of 8 ordered wings. None of the wings arrived at the same time. 2 people were done eating by the time the others received their food. I HATE that. Our server brought out the butter cake for my birthday - super sweet of her and it was delicious. I wanted to try the tomahawk but can't justify spending $100 for a steak and having to listen to people playing basketball in the game portion of the restaurant. I'm definitely the odd ball out with my opinion, but I have zero desire to return. read more

I came here for the first time with a large group (13) after axe throwing and at first, the hostess said they couldn't accommodate us until 30-45 minutes later, which made sense since we didn't have a reservation. We decided we didn't want to wait that long so we reconvened outside. While we decided where we wanted to go instead, the floor manager came outside and told us she would get a table ready for us in 20-25 minutes if we wanted to get some drinks and wait in the game area. She clearly wanted our business and was willing to accommodate us to do so, which was above and beyond. We ordered drinks, and like she said, had us seated within the timeframe. We were able to order appetizers and entrees quickly and the food was great! I personally got the wagyu American burger which was delicious. I also was able to try the tuna bites and dumplings which were very tasty. The tuna bites I preferred over the dumplings. The service the whole time was phenomenal from the manager accommodating us to get seated as soon as possible, to the servers who took our orders and delivered our food. The vibe was relaxed and I loved the warm lighting. Due to the service alone, I will be back. The food being delicious was a bonus! Thank you to everyone that took care of my group! read more

We have seen some reels about the adult happy meal and other deals there. So during a Thursday we went to experience it ourselves. We sat at the bar and it was a fun vibe with a good size crowd in the afternoon. The place has a solid feel and the dirty martini was fantastic! We then had the cauliflower kfc and I am definitely a carnivore but it was really good and my wife loved it. I had the adult happy meal with wagyu smash burger and it was phenomenal!

Stopped in after seeing a few videos of this place online. We came right before the lunch menu started so we went with brunch which overall was a mistake. The French toast was made with thin cheap bread with resulted with it being soggy. The breakfast burrito was all potatoes including some weird purple pieces even though the potatoes weren't purple. We ordered two cocktails and those were ok. They do have some good weekday specials that I would try but I wouldnt recommend this place for brunch. read more

First off this was a blind pick after arriving in Scottsdale. Pulling up to this place in a strip mall both me and my wife were a little hesitant. But as soon as we opened the door, we were very pleasantly surprised. It had a great vibe just walking through the door. Medium low lit, music pumping(but not too loud), beautiful decors throughout. We were seated ordered a couple of the specialty drinks. Both were delicious and beautiful. Our server, I wish I remembered her name was out of this world. Very friendly and knowledgeable, she just fit into the environment . We proceeded forward with wings(which wing Wednesday 6 for $4), bulgogi bao buns, and steak frites. All were fantastic. The only criticism is that though the bao buns were delicious, they did not fully check on the contents and each of the three had a big piece of gristle mixed among the meat. Either way we're only on day two of our 6 day trip and we've already considered making a second appearance here. So far the best place we've ate at(and we're already at half a dozen spots).
