    Fire-Baked Focaccia Fire-Baked Focaccia

    This place is awesome. The decor & music are a vibe. Etta's food is delicious and worth the wait. Our server was busy and I felt we waited 20 minutes for a water refill...thankfully other staff help out with water refills.

    The restaurant is pretty and great atmosphere, but unfortunately the food wasn't good. We ordered focaccia for appetizer, it was a little bit bland. For the Wagyu, there was too much sauce on it and you couldn't taste the original meat flavor of wagyu, and it didn't even taste like wagyu! The gnocchetti was also nothing special, but not disappointed as wagyu. The best dish we had was grilled asparagus, it was aromatic and tender. Overall, the server was very friendly but the food was disappointing (considering about the price).

    Once again, we ventured in, and found ourselves reminiscing... December 29, 2024 We sat at the bar... And had a glass of champagne with lunch. It was a wonderful way to spend the day, and a nice way to end the year. Sitting at the bar, gave us front row seats to the art of bartending when there is a full staff on hand. It was like watching a play. A really good one. I had the amazing Etta's Chopped Salad. My dining companion had the Dry Aged New York with a side of Hearth roasted carrots and said he couldn't wait to come back and have it again. It was a little on the expensive side, but worth the splurge, and it's the holiday's! ... Fast-forward to today, a nothing special day, other than lunch at the bar at Etta.

    Went to Etta to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. This was my second time back since the renovation and new menu. This time instead of a side booth we had a table on the floor in the back, didn't love it. It was also very loud. Ran into the same issue with ordering. Our server made us give our entire order right away. You aren't allowed to put in appetizers and then your entrees after. It really annoyed our group!!! We all ordered dirty martinis and they came in very tiny rock glasses, odd choice of glassware and not worth the price. We ordered the flaming burrata, house baked focaccia, and oysters to start. The flaming burrata is lite table side and fun! Our table ordered the grilled branzino, ora king salmon, ricotta pillows, and lobster gnocchetti with grilled asparagus as a side. Food was good but being asked to put your entire order right away isn't! What a bummer!

    First time in and we got the bolognese, the Parmesan crusted truffle filet, and truffle fries. The menu seemed small. The food was good but nothing out of this world. The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice- somewhere you'd go for a celebration. This restaurant seems more about the atmosphere than the food.

    Brunch 4/19/25

    My friends and I had reservations for brunch here last Saturday at 1:30pm. Place is easy to find and there is valet right out front ($15, not complimentary!). We were seated right away near the dj. Place was bright and cute inside. Even the patio was cute. I've been here before for dinner but it was before they redid the place and menu. The brunch menu is definitely pricey. It's crazy that the drinks with the added decor and effects is an additional $25 on top of the drink price!! We passed on that. Our order: Rebel Rebel cocktail $18 Place of Faith cocktail $19 Transformation cocktail $19 Mimosa $16 Shrimp Cocktail $25 Hamachi Crudo x2 $26 Focaccia French Toast $27 Spicy Rigatoni $29 Ocean Plateau for 2 $165 Cocktails were good and pretty. Loved the hamachi crudo! Hamachi tasted fresh and the sauce is different from other places that normally use ponzu. I believe the one here has a tangerine sauce. Had a bite of the french toast and that was good but I prefer savory over sweet for my meals. That would be a good dessert though. My spicy rigatoni had really good flavor but I would say it is way overpriced for a pasta with no meat. My friend's ocean plateau looked fresh and delicious. I didn't really want to pick at theirs but did try a few mussels since they couldn't finish it and it tasted pretty good. Overall, the food was good, place was cute, and I loved the music the dj was playing. Service was great for the majority of the time up until the end when we didn't see him for a while. My only main issue was the flies! We were indoors but there were multiple flies flying around. Kinda sucked that valet wasn't complimentary too and for some reason, valet left my window down after parking my car... definitely not okay! I only know this because my car app shows everything

    I had been here once before and really enjoyed the food and drinks, so I came back with a group for my birthday. Decided to try one of the theatrical drinks to celebrate. The Secret Garden Box was beautiful and pretty cool with the fog/smokiness, but honestly it was not worth it. You get to choose from one of two cocktails that are already on the menu. The props are only there for like a minute then taken away. I thought they would leave it there to be admired for a bit longer. The cocktail was good and didn't need the theatrics and up-charge. For food, the Flaming Burrata is a must-try. They light it up at the table, and it adds a nice smokiness to the burrata. My favorite main dishes are the Spicy Rigatoni and Grilled Iberico Pork. I've had both twice now, and the flavors were consistent. A friend recommended the Ricotta Pillows, which were so good! Light, fluffy, and airy. The Uni Roasted King Crab had great flavor, but it's not something I'd typically order. The Lobster Gnochetti was collectively our least favorite. Something was just off with the tomato sauce flavor. The restaurant provided a free birthday dessert with a beautiful red presentation. I was surprised that there was a bit of cake hidden inside of the whipped cream. It's like Funfetti cake, which I love. The Tiramisu Cheesecake had great flavor but very dense. Lemon Tart was pretty good. The Carrot Cake was surprisingly good too - a lot of places make dry carrot cake, but not this one. Unfortunately, the raspberry sorbet had no flavor, very watered down. Service was a bit slow. They waited so long after taking our drink order to come back and take our food order. One of my family members got there a bit late, ordered her drink, then waited like half an hour for it. Overall, the food was good, but the experience did not meet expectations.

    We opted for the bar this time and I think we enjoyed this menu better than the dinning room menu! The pizza was so delicious and don't get me started with these fries!!! We got there right when they opened at 4 so they did let us know that their menu was limited until 5 but it wasn't a problem for us.

    Entrance

    Visited Etta with friends for brunch recently and had a great experience. The front entrance has a cute "Etta" floral sign which is great to snap a pic or a few selfies. The inside reminds of Tulum, light, airy, and some greenery. I love that they have a Dj during brunch as well. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was very good as well as the drinks. I only wish they had more selections on the brunch menu. Our waitress informed us brunch is new for Etta, so they are still developing the menu. I'll definitely have to come back during dinner time and try some of the dinner items.

    Came by on a Monday evening for an anniversary dinner. It was our first time back since they've renovated. Love what they did with the place. We were seated immediately as we already had reservations. Menu had a nice variety of options. Started off with the flaming burrata and the Caesar salad. Both were great and the Caesar now has a special place in my heart. The ribeye, ricotta pillows, uni roasted king crab, and sides all came out at shortly after our starters. Everything looked amazing. The pillows were delicious; the ribeye was decent; uni roasted king crab was divine, but I wish the portion size was a bit more; roasted carrots and potato purée were darn tasty as well. Overall, a good experience and our server (Taylor) provided impeccable service. Will be back for brunch soon.

    Went for my husbands dinner tonight and it was a good meal . We started with a few drinks the legacy and an expresso martini . For appetizers we have the focaccia bread, meatballs, and a Caesar salad for entrées a few of us have the chicken Parm one of us had the Imberco pork and the filet mignon. For sides we ordered some Veal Bolognese Parmesan truffle fries, and asparagus.dessert was really good we had the lemon tart and tiramisu cheesecake. Service was good , I do wish they offered dinner specials since the menu is so small.

    Grand slam pizza
    Holly J.

    I usually come here for dinner (which I love) but decided to try their brunch this past weekend. I ordered the eggs in purgatory and it's basically a shakshouka. I quite enjoyed it, but did wish there was some protein besides eggs to go with it. The texture ends up just being eggs with a tomato soup. My bf got the grand slam pizza which I thought was delicious! A little heavy on the runny eggs but all the flavors were great! We also ordered the monkey bread, which I don't really recommend. It was more on the dry side and not anything special. While brunch was good I think their dinner is better so would recommend coming here for the dinner menu instead.

    Fire-Baked Focaccia
    Brittany H.

    I really excited to go here for dinner. The ambiance of the bar and the restaurant looked awesome. We had an 8p reservation party of 3. We were sat in this private section away from the ambiance with larger parties. Both tables had young children there 6-10 year olds. Meanwhile the larger dining room had the dj and the ambiance we wanted. When I asked the host where the fun area was she said oh on the other side and walked away. Haha. We decided to just have appetizers because we wanted a fun night with adults. Flaming burata is tasty and nice presentation Meatballs were just okay Really liked the focaccia We later went to the bar and had more drinks. Drinks are pricey but much better vibe. We had a lot of drinks I can say the bartender did a good job on the drinks.

    Ask the Community - etta

    Does the new Etta have any GF pasta or any real GF alternative options? What about vegetarian? Both?

    Yes there are a few GF options.

    Can they accommodate dairy allergies?

    Yes

    Does anyone know if they have Glutten Free options?

    No. And very little vegetarian. No vegan. That are not into servicing their customers needs and they don't care.

    Do you take reservations for happy hour seating?

    Hello, Happy hour is walk in only

    Do you have gluten free options?

    Yes

    I understand you have unique straws?

    We do! We have reusable metal straws with unique phrases engraved on them!

    Is Etta reservation only?

    No but reservations are highly advisable

    Does the restaurant apply a surcharge to the guest's bill which is intended to provide health insurance for your employees? If so, what is the caliber of the insurance? Why isn't the cost of the insurance taken out of revenue from sales?

    Wow John, thanks for bringing this up. Etta is happy to remove this surcharge upon request? Seems to me, patrons should be asked if they want to contribute. Yes, I'm sure Etta loves their staff. But patrons shouldn't have to pay for their staffs…

The biggest difference was the ambiance. The music was so loud that it made conversation at our table difficult, and the tables were placed very close together, making the dining room feel a bit cramped. It lacked the relaxed, inviting vibe we've come to expect from the Gilbert location. We started with the Cacio e Pepe Arancini, and it was every bit as delicious as we remembered. Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and full of flavor, it's still one of our favorite appetizers. We also shared the Little Gem Caesar Salad, which had just the right amount of dressing and was fresh, crisp, and satisfying. For my entrée, I ordered the Shrimp Scampi, which was delicious with perfectly cooked shrimp and great flavor. Around the table we also tried the Agnolotti Pomodori, which was very enjoyable, and the Spicy Rigatoni, another solid choice with just the right amount of heat. Dessert was the only real disappointment. We finished with the Banana Caramel Butter Cake, but unfortunately it was quite dry and didn't live up to the rest of the meal. Although this location didn't have the same atmosphere as Gilbert, the kitchen still delivered several excellent dishes. I'd happily return for the arancini and pasta, but I hope they turn the music down a bit and give diners a little more breathing room between tables so the overall experience is as enjoyable as the food.

It's equally perfect for a date night or a relaxed dinner with friends. Two of us ordered the "Beef Bolognese," and we were both speechless after the first bite. I've had Bolognese at some of the best Italian restaurants, yet this version is in a league of its own. I honestly don't know what Chef Dom Ruggiero does differently, but somehow the sauce has an incredibly special balanced flavor that's impossible to describe until you taste it. It's absolutely sublime. I can honestly say I'll order it every time I come back and recommend it to everyone I know. Our friend ordered the "Crispy Chicken Sandwich" and loved it. The chicken was perfectly breaded, wonderfully crispy on the outside, and incredibly juicy and tender inside. She said it was so good and so were the seasoned fries. My husband chose the "Ibérico Pork Skirt Steak," and every component of the dish worked together brilliantly. The pork was unbelievably tender, and it was served with Japanese sweet potatoes, apples, cashews, sesame seeds, cabbage, and miso. Every ingredient complemented the others beautifully and rested on an outstanding creamy base. It was one of those dishes where each bite makes you tell everyone at the table that they have to taste it. The service was just as impressive as the food--friendly, attentive, and welcoming (from the hostess to the server). Hush Public House has mastered that rare combination of exceptional food, outstanding service, and an atmosphere that's warm and comfortable either at the bar or table. If you haven't been yet, go! It's one of my favorite restaurants in the Valley.

It did not disappoint - this is actually a second-story restaurant so you can see the runway and planes! I'll note it is at the far end of the runway, so it would be MOST ideal to sit outside at the end of the patio for plane watching. Two, the service was impeccable on a Saturday for brunch. Is everyone who works here in a good mood? The energy is bright, light and airy, the service is attentive but low pressure. Three, they LOVE PETS. I'm not a pet owner but while I was there two people brought their pets along and one was a golden retriever puppy. This wouldn't matter but puppies can obviously cause a nuisance indoors - this staff did not mind. They were not in a slow service part of the day but they treated the pets like patrons and it actually created a really relaxed, collaborative atmosphere. I will note this though because if you're not an animal lover/ are afraid of dogs, their acceptance is a little more than the typical "pets outside" policy. Four, the food. It was beyond exceptional, and it's funny because the typical airport diner isn't elevated. But this is Scottsdale, and we had really delicious, beautiful food - actually fine dining presentation but in these cute mismatched kitschy dishes which brought it back down home. Lastly for anyone who loves birding, you wouldn't think an airport is a great spot but there is actually wildly diverse population of birds in the Volanti entrance. Trust me. I would not only love to go back but I think bringing a visitor here would be the best time.
