Food was absolutely made with love!! Totally amazing!! The chef personally brings out your food, and you can tell he takes great pride in his craft. read more

A perfect experience. The food was excellent and the portions were very generous. The outdoor seating is nice, especially in the evening. Service was prompt and they were a great help with deciding what to eat! I had the ribeye and it was so refreshing on top of the couscous and veggie medley. The carrot cake for desert with candied ginger was the best carrot cake I had ever had. I also enjoyed her chicken spring rolls. With an ever changing menu I look forward to returning whenever I am in town. read more

Tiny restaurant tucked in the between some old town random shops. Food was pretty good. All local ingredients. For the price I would say I was definitely left wanting more. Glad we tried it out, but not a place I'd be coming back to time after time. read more

To begin the staff was sooo friendly and the service was top notch. Ashley was an awesome waitress. All of the ingredients used are fresh so the menu changes every month due to what is in season. I loved the pasta dish the most. The portion sizing was very generous. I would have loved more seafood options on the menu. They have indoor and outdoor seating, it's a nice intimate space. read more

This is easily the best restaurant in what is an underrated city from a culinary perspective. The food, the service, the wine, the ambience there isn't anything constructive that I can say! I think there are two things that really set this place apart from the rest. Two things that allow me to confidently proclaim that FnB is unequivocally THE best; the staff and the food. Staff - the service here is without comparison. They are are attentive, authentic, passionate, and joyful. Everyone seems to be happy that they are there, happy that you are there, and happy that they can provide you with a wonderful experience. The front of house people are second to none in this respect. Food - the things they do are nothing short of mind blowing. You can come here every week (we have for many stretches) and order enough food to 6 people, and NEVER have the same dish. More impressive, everything you try is a hit. You will read the menu and think "that won't possibly work" but somehow, miraculously, inexplicably, it does! It defies reason, but time and time again, the food is amazing. Go here, try things, go here again. If you are only in town for a few days, you should honestly come here twice. It's that good. Make a reservation, it's a small space and is always busy. read more

One of my favorite restaurants anywhere, ever! I've been there twice, only because we live 3 hours away and they are usually closed when we are in town, but.....,the second time we went in, we were remembered! Wow! The place is quaintly small. The food is farm to table fresh, seasonal, and so simply perfect! I love that they use locally sourced foods from the region. This place is PERFECT!!!!! read more

OMG--this is a must-go restaurant. It's not your average dining experience. The menu changes weekly, sometimes even daily, depending on what's in season and the chef's creativity--which explains why you won't find it online. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality. Every dish had incredible texture and layers of flavor--honestly hard to describe, but absolutely wow. My husband even said it was one of the best salads he's ever had. The roasted carrot spread and dip created the day we arrived was outstanding, and every dish we tried impressed us. We also had the chance to meet one of the owners, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even more special. Joana, our waitress, was so friendly and helpful. She gave great recommendations and didn't just push the most expensive options, which we really appreciated. It's a small, local, chef-owned spot, with a wonderful ambience so definitely make a reservation. Easily one of the best meals I've had in Scottsdale. read more

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining outside at FnB for a sunset dinner Friday night. Chance, the waiter, took good care of us checking in multiple times during the evening. I found bottles of wine and bubbly to be reasonably priced so decided on a Spanish sparkler for appetizer and dinner. The James Beard award winning chef certainly dazzled with a perfect blend of expertly cooked vegetables along with with our entree's. My wife had the middle eastern chicken and I truly enjoyed the grilled wreckfish/tilefish. To have wreckfish/tilefish here in the desert was a special treat! Would highly recommend FnB to anyone looking for a special evening out or a relaxed evening atmosphere for dinner in downtown Scottsdale. Enjoy! read more

Let me start by saying that with most of my meals the thing remaining on my plate is usually the vegetable. That's the thing about FnB -- they somehow make veggies of all kinds enjoyable, in fact desirable! Of course, they do offer meat centric dishes as well, but these too are enhanced by the added plant-based flavors. My first course featured rutabaga. I admit I felt like I was taking a chance since this was something I don't ever remember eating. They served it with ginger creme fraiche and chives and all of a sudden I was considering converting to become a vegetarian. Next, I enjoyed a salad with oranges, cucumber, pickled red onion, mint and feta. What can I say -- it was delicious. My main course was "chicken paprikash", with a nicely spiced sauce, fingerling potatoes, dill and sour cream. Once again, the vegetables made this one of the tastiest chicken entrees I have ever eaten. We finished off with a butterscotch pudding which again was very enjoyable. Now let me mention the service. This is a small restaurant, and you feel like you are being welcomed into someone's home. Carla, our server, was actually a co-owner of the place. She mentioned that they also run a small winery and we might be interested in trying some Arizona wine. It was a great suggestion -- the wine was a perfect match with the flavorful entrees. She was very helpful in selecting our courses and shared some interesting information about the restaurant's talented chef and the real farm to table approach they follow. All in all this was a truly enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend it -- even if you also aren't a big vegetable fan. We will definitely be back. read more

This is the first time I am doing this, I am giving an extra star to FnB, Sooo 6/5 I wanna thank the chef and the servers for making such an upscale experience for me. The plating in this restaurant is humble, you don't see fancy plating but not a single dish in this restaurant is something you have tried before. The level of creativity and genius I saw with these dishes is to a level that I can't even express. The ambiance is also very very cozy but charming. I can just say one thing, PLEASE GO TO THIS PLACE. Don't leave this world before going there at least once. I am still shocked by what I had here, It was all WOWs And as always, the best dish goes to the pork tender loin which was served with peach... GO NOW (NOT LATER) read more

Love the whole farm-to-table concept. Thank your for accommodating our bachelorette party this past weekend. The food was fresh and delicious. We were told by our sever that the plates were tapas style but they were actually big portions and we ended up over ordering and we couldn't finish our food. The steak was amazing! And we love how unique your menu is! read more

FnB - Gastropubs Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

This place is hard to find unless you know Old Town Scottsdale well, so leave sometime to wonder around looking for it. They charge $20 per person to hold your reservation, but refund it promptly when you show up. Menu changes often and features a lot of vegetarian choices. We ordered stuffed squash (my favorite dish), persimmon salad, mushroom momos, pork and paprikash - all were great! Norwegian salmon spread thing was not so good - a big piece of lox on top seemed out of place. The space where we set was very dark and it was hard to see food presentation or what we were eating. For example, lox pieces on top of salmon spread looked like tomato slices... Overall, this is an interesting place to try. read more

Gotta plan ahead for reservations, booked through Tock. The full cost of the Tock reservation is refunded when you show for your reservation. Evening sun really beats down for people facing west when sitting outside, so plan your timing. The menu constantly changes, so asking our server for recommendations had a disclaimer that they haven't tried many items. Everything was delicious. Portions are huge, which is pretty awesome. On the cocktail menu, ice pop literally is a boozy popsicle and not just a interpretation of a childhood popsicle drink. Parking garage a few steps away, free parking. read more

The food is pretty amazing with vegetable forward servings. It was a hit with our group as every plate was shared and finished completely. Great service and cool location. FYI it's located behind some building and a little hidden. I would go many more time when visiting Scottsdale. read more

Food is delicious. Fresh, innovative, with generous portions. The chef is vegetarian, so she's able to tweak dishes to make them vegetarian for you. The menu changes regularly, but fortunately the butterscotch pudding is always there. Pacing is a bit off. There are long waits between courses, and the seats are very hard - bring a cushion. The waitstaff are very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. read more

I am confused The decor, the seating, the menu & the food. Everything is confusing ? Service was good though. I wanted to like it because it's vegetable forward and reading the menu I was very excited which probably made the disappointment worse. The beans and "steak" was like tasting a can of bushes baked beans. The shrimp on the cabbage was grilled yet cold? I was confused as to if this should've been an entree or an appetizer because the cabbages were huge. The fennel fava bean chicken was fall off the bone but I think it lacked salt and it was overpowering. Pana cotta was good though! Their alcohol selection was much better than the food! read more

FnB is a family favorite, so I made a reservation when my parents were in town. My parents enjoyed trying two glasses of white and two glasses of red and guessing which was from Arizona and which was from anywhere else in the world - they love the wine list and the waiter did a great job with their selections. Our food was great as always - we loved the salad of grapes with dates, pomegranate, pistachios, mint, and blue cheese! The fresh pasta and the pork loin were our other two stand outs, but we enjoyed everything we ate. We got to sit in a new to us part of the restaurant by the kitchen, and I really enjoyed seeing the chefs at work. read more

FnB - FnB menu from October 11 - Gastropubs Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Such an adorable area and great atmosphere. All the wait staff were very nice, helpful and friendly. It's a tough reservation to get and they do require $20 down per person. I guess all that really just hyped up this place in my mind and I ended up being underwhelmed. However, I will say the heirloom carrots were delicious! The sweet potatoes were tasty as well. The pasta entree had a decent flavor, but nothing exciting about it. I felt the same was about the flourless chocolate cake we had for dessert. Overall, the food had great flavor and I may have loved it more if there was been scallops or halibut on the menu. I saw this on previous menus and had my fingers crossed! read more

FnB - Cute patio with a warmer for each table - Gastropubs Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

If I could rate this place 10 stars I would. WOW WOW WOW one of the BEST RESTAURANTS IN ARIZONA!!!! I'm an Arizona native and I can't believe this is my first time coming here. I don't even know where to begin this review because everything about our dining experience was PERFECT, like pure chefs kiss perfect. Our waiter Ricardo was so sweet and attentive! Such a great first impression. His explanation of the menu was so helpful. Everything from the drinks, to the starters, to the entrees were immaculate. My favorite dishes were the Brussels sprouts/chicken/& pasta dish. The ginger- zero alcohol drink was delicious! I'm drooling writing this review and I will be telling everybody I know about this place. Absolutely incredible vibes, service, location, and food. read more

Yum!! My friends treated me here for dinner for my birthday! Overall, I enjoyed the food and experience, though I'd likely spend time exploring other restaurants instead of returning. Don't get me wrong - the staff was friendly, and the food was good, but it fell flat as a great 5-dining pricey dining experience that keeps me coming back. We were seated on the right side of the restaurant... which I swear didn't have AC access. It was so warm in there for our entire dinner, whereas a walk to the bathroom / our exit was much cooler in the other areas of the restaurants. Our meat option was fine; the vegetables are the star here, and I would opt for a vegetarian dinner if I ate here again. The menu is seasonal and rotating... but a few thoughts on what we had: - Radish salad: the rest of my party did not like this, but I enjoyed it. It was basic for the price, though. Halved and shaved radishes with some feta and a small dollop of sauce. - The shredded carrots were delicious - like a buffalo bbq veggie. Though it was a bit too spicy. - Pickled shrimp - it was good - Cauliflower salad is more like a cucumber salad with a few cauliflower pieces. Still good, though. - Pork Dish - I enjoyed the sauce, meet felt a little overdone. - Cocktails were great! I don't know what to call the style food/restaurant. It's pretty eclectic and it's lacking a full identity. read more

Global flavors collide on the menu at FnB, a chef-driven restaurant located right in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale! Our waiter was super passionate about the food, describing several of his favorite menu items in vivid detail! We followed each of his suggestions to a T in selecting from the seasonal menu, divided into small plates, vegetable sides, and mains. To start, we had the rosemary socca, a chickpea flatbread from Italy/France, paired with a cardoon relish and Calabrian chilies. The socca had a really crispy texture (though it was a bit on the oily side), and this was my first time trying cardoon, a vegetable from the artichoke family, which reminded me a bit of celery. The socca dish had a slight spicy kick to it from the chilies and was also served with a lightly dressed side salad of simple greens. Next, we tried the Red Kuri Squash from the vegetable section of the menu--this dish was made of roasted squash topped with pomegranate vinaigrette, pomegranate seeds, dukka (an Egyptian mixture of nuts and spices), and chunks of feta cheese! While definitely a creative dish, the squash turned out a bit dry and undercooked, though the combination of all the other ingredients added great Middle Eastern flavors. Finally, for our main dish, we had the mafaldine (a ribbon-shaped pasta) mixed with a spicy Thai curry lamb ragu, escarole, green beans, potato slices, and herbs. This was definitely a creative dish, mixing elements of both Italian and Thai cuisines, but the flavors weren't quite on point. While aromatic, the Thai curry was rather bland, and the pasta was cooked longer than I would've liked and had lost its al dente texture. Overall, the service and atmosphere at FnB were definitely highlights, and while the approach to the globally-inspired menu was definitely creative, the execution on some of the dishes fell a little short. read more

Vegetable Centric We had one meal outside our hotel and choose FnB, a favorite among locals and known for their farm to table menu It's a very vegetable forward menu with more items featuring locally grown produce and probably my most vegetable-heavy menu since I dined at Daniel Patterson's Coi in San Francisco Portions are quite generous and we were soon overwhelmed with our order of 2 items per person Thankfully, everything is fresh, delicious and well-done with highlights being the roasted carrots, lobster mushrooms, Atlantic swordfish, and Peruvian chicken soft scrambled duck eggs, chanterelles, thyme, buttered bread $17 / hatch Chile relleno, crow's dairy goat cheese, peruano bean relish $18 / chilled smashed eggplant, white beans, tomato, red onion, chives, preserved lemon $14 / fresh pasta, corn, jalapeño, bacon, basil, young pecorino, green onion $28 / Peruvian 1/2 chicken, roasted red fingerling potatoes, spicy green sauce $32 / Atlantic swordfish, lobster mushrooms, Marcella beans, summer squash, tarragon $36 FnB (Scottsdale, AZ) Dining is indoor only and reservations are available on Tock with a refundable deposit read more

This is my favorite restaurant. Wonderful food, staff, and vibe. I am not typically a lover of vegetables, but here, they frequently overshadow the proteins. We typically make a meal out of sides/veggies because there is so much good food to try. read more

I'll be honest-- at a glance, the veggie forward menu didn't look very exciting to me but our server at another Old Town establishment recommended FnB highly so we gave it a try. Well after our amazing meal, I have no doubt that I'll be dreaming of the velvety sunchoke potato soup for awhile after leaving Scottsdale! It was so luxuriously creamy and one of the best soups Ove ever had. The citrus braised pork with beans and rice was another standout dish. I wish we had room to try dessert but we were so full after two apps and one main. The portions were quite generous. Would definitely come again next time we are in town! read more

FnB came highly recommended and it did not disappoint! The food is incredible. I will be back!

It is wonderful to return to this iconic restaurant The menu has grown but remains fixated on locally raised produce Definitely plan ahead and make a reservation. This is very special restaurant read more

One of my favorite restaurants in the Phoenix area, FnB never disappoints. I used to come here pretty regularly for lunch (a slammin' deal) when I worked in the area, and only recently was able to experience dinner here for the first time. It was spectacular. Would highly recommend making reservations for your visit, as there are a limited number of tables and the space can fill up pretty quickly. We came for my boyfriend's birthday, and he was absolutely thrilled about it. He has a gluten intolerance, but our waiter was super knowledgable and able to deftly guide us on dietary restrictions for any of the dishes. We opted for a tasting menu of sorts, getting a bunch of the small plates. Everything was so so good, but the chili in particular blew my mind. It was like if chili and chicken tortilla soup made a delicious hearty baby. Beer, wine, and cocktails are always reasonably priced and we've never had a bad one yet. The food itself is definitely on the pricier side, but well worth it for the freshness of all of the ingredients and how truly delicious everything always is. I'm not even a butterscotch person, but I couldn't resist sneaking a few bites of the boy's butterscotch pudding that he ordered for dessert. Don't miss out on FnB!! read more

I've heard a lot of really good things about this restaurant and finally managed to go. I was disappointed. First, we were sat at the absolute worst table at the restaurant; a table that really shouldn't exist. I was certain that I would be bumped into during my entire dinner and I was. I did ask the hostess for another table and she replied by saying "We're pretty booked up tonight", no fewer than three times, as she walked between six unoccupied two tops. She did manage to accommodate but, by then, we were already settled at the crap table. The service was good, but the cuisine was oversold by those with lofty recommendations. We started with the Hatch Chili Relleno. The flavor was amazing. The heat was perfectly balanced. The accompanying chickpeas were cooked 'Al dente' to perfection. They added a welcome texture to an otherwise soft chili. The amount of goat cheese included threw the dish out of balance. It wasn't a huge problem, but shaved some points off of the dish. Our next dish was the butternut squash, which came highly recommended by our veteren server. He had to serve it in advance of our mains due to a lack of space on our minuscule crap table that shouldn't exist. It was OK, but far from great. The included einkorn gave the squishy, probably over-cooked squash some much needed texture. Not a super impressive dish and really kind of boring. Next up - entrees. We found the pasta, in the shape of malfadine to be even more boring than the squash. They included whole strips of generic bacon, which did nothing to add structure to a flat dish. I'm not sure what else to say about this dish other than I'm amused at how such a simple undertaking could be so underwhelming. The sea bass was also pretty boring, but was mostly saved by its accompaniments. It was dry, so it needed the broth, and the stewed tomatoes offered some relief from the fish's bland flavor. Another boring dish, but I'm equally amused at how they managed to dry the sea bass. This is one of the most overrated restaurants in the state. read more

One of the better meals I've had in a while. The staff was absolutely incredible so knowledgeable and friendly. We started with an appetizer of a variety of radishes, the best chickpeas ever, and the best spread i can remember all with a toasted bread that you would think was a little too toasty but went great with all the ingredients. For dinner the grouper with the mushroom broth and bok choy could not have been better. The broth had us both fighting over the spoon and I don't want bok choy cooked any other way. The acorn squash was so well seasoned and the micro greens on top were so dang good. I can't wait to see what this place brings with their ever changing menu. Highly recommend. read more

We had a delicious dinner at FnB, with food and service that were both better than expected! We ordered multiple items from FnB to share, and all of them were quite good. All of the vegetables are really fresh - I highly recommend the crunchy spring vegetables. Service was exceptional, and our server went out of his way to make sure we had a wonderful experience. Drinks were well crafted, with fun alcoholic ice pops and nice cocktails. Oddly enough, the hyped-up butterscotch pudding was the least exciting part of the meal (though not bad). Would definitely come back! read more

FnB - Grilled vegetables - Gastropubs Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Charleen Badman chef at FnB was just named Best Chef--Southwest by the James Beard Foundation. We waited two months for a prime time weekend reservation--before the award was announced. On Saturday, we definitely felt like we had the best table in the city. FnB in located on a courtyard in Old Town. It spans several rooms with the bar to the far left--it's open seating if you don't want to wait two months. We were seated at a table by the window in the right most room. The decor is sparse but bright. Our strategy for ordering was simple--stick to apps and small plates so we could try as many things as possible. Badman has been called "the veggie whisperer" and well over half the menu is vegetarian. We got the falafel, the grilled asparagus, the celtuce, the spaghetti squash, and the butterscotch pudding. The polenta under the asparagus was one of the best things I've ever eaten. It was creamy with just a little crunch on the edges. The richness of the egg yolk soaked in and paired perfectly with the asparagus. It was wonderfully elevated comfort food. The spaghetti squash was our other favorite. The tomatoes were tangy and perfect with the sweetness of the squash. Then there was the butterscotch pudding--it was about half whipped cream and half very sweet pudding put it all had about the same texture. It was divine. FnB was worth the wait and Badman has definitely earned her laurels. read more

FnB Restaurant is a contemporary restaurant located in the arts district of old town scottsdale. They offer a farm focused menu of innovated globally inspired dishes that are meant to be shared, entrees, cocktails and a wine menu that focus on Arizona Wines. Some offerings on the menu you might not be familiar with such as "Farcous" (French Chard Fritter), Celtuce (Obscure stem lettuce), Bagna Cauda (warm hot Italian Dip) and many others but don't worry you server will explain. The menu is broken down into cold sharing plates, warm sharing plates and entrees. The menu showcases vegetables but also offers meat proteins embellish with extraordinary vegetables. It's always difficult to decide on what to order because they offer so many things that sound delicious. I like to order two - three sharing plates..and at least one dinner for two people but often my husband wants his own dinner and we have the most amazing leftovers to bring home. But I figure I don't go here as often as I want to so I try to make the most of my visit. Whatever you order they start you off with our best locally made bread called Noble Bread and serve it with High Quality Olive Oil. Tonight we started with the Radish Salad that was made with the freshest fanciest radishes that don't taste sharp like super market radishes. They were dressed in caper anchovy dressing with pumpkin seeds and sweet dates. It was a light and delicious salad. We also shared the Salmon Gefilte Fish Plate. Everyone out there would love gefilte fish if all of them were made like this. So fresh and mild with a light as a cloud texture with fresh herbs. Also on the plate were pickled beets with a really delicious flavor that I'm not familiar with, pickled eggs, beet horse radish and buttered matzo. It all went together really well. If you like fish you should get the fish dish because it is always fresh and prepared as well as the finest places in Vegas. Tonight I tried the Mexican Grouper...It was so fresh that it just melted in my mouth. It also was over the top delicious with a bountiful pile of vegetables and fancy herbs. My husband tried the Veal Loin and we shared a sharing plate of Corona Beans....Even the beans were like no other....Really plump and sweet in a broth with bright herbs and flavorful provolone cheese. Sadly I was way too full to order dessert but I usually do because dessert is always great here. Actually I ordered too much food and I had a large box and a small box to bring home. The Chef for many years now has been nominated for a James Beard Award and this year (2019) is a Semi Finalist. The restaurant is small and is usually busy so you need to make a reservation. read more
