    Chilaquiles with over-easy eggs and gooey cheese
    Tria M.

    Always very good lunch food (with a view), this time tried breakfast. Hubby had an omelette with sausage, and I had the Chilaquiles with eggs over-easy. Some of the tastiest Chilaquiles I've had in AZ, beans and corn were a nice addition. Coffee was hot and tasty served in large le Crueset cups (nice). Great friendly service too! Will be back. A hidden gem.

    Happy hour with friends
    Lea C.

    We stopped in here this week for a happy hour with friends before heading to the Zoo for Roars and Pours. Our friend had reserved a firepit spot for us and just 'wow'- so comfy around the fire enjoying friends, wine and snacks. There was live music as well (he was VERY good!), service was excellent and the sunset was incredible. There is a huge grassy area where kids were playing, and a friend brought her pup so patio is dog friendly. I will say the happy hour pricing wasn't great- $1 off wine- but being on a golf course and with this view of the Papago mountain, they don't really need to provide a deal lol. Excellent spot for a group gathering!

    Fish and Chips

    Came here on a Monday afternoon for lunch with a bunch of mom friends and our kiddos. We had spent the morning at the zoo so this was a convenient, close place to grab food. A couple of the friends I was with come here quite a bit because they can sit outside with the kids, who can run around the nice big grassy area. Anywhere with a space the kids can be loose and free is a HUGE BONUS! I called ahead and made a reservation since there was 11 of us total. They set us up at one of their fire pit areas, that were all fully in the sun. They had umbrellas around but we had to move them, and set them up ourselves. I guess they didn't mind that we moved the umbrellas but they also didn't help us. Service was slow and food was not very good. It's rare I feel this way - I'm not a picky eater, I'm usually very pleased with most things. I got the fish and chips and the fish was tough. My friends said their fish tacos were really dry. I tried my daughter's chicken fingers and they were also tough! It's like they were using bad pieces of meat. The french fries were great. Overall, I don't think it was worth the money.

    I picked this place randomly to meet up with a friend.. I didn't realize this was the golf course restaurant though .. you will see Papago mountains in the background which is nice.. they have a nice patio are that's fenced in.. which is very nice if you have little ones.. They can run around.. they also have corn hole in which you can play.. the service was overall good can't complain about that.. the food was avg though.. nothing really stood out BUT this is a very casual spot.. which is nice and the views Defin makes it worth it to come back..

    A first visit after a baseball game at Papago sports complex. We tried the French dip and the chicken enchiladas. Both were exceptional. The chicken enchiladas had a very nice cream sauce and the chicken was well prepared and very flavorful. Unfortunately, our check got mixed up and there was a little bit of delay, getting our meals. However, they were very accommodating, apologetic and comped part of our meal as a result of their error. This is an awesome space for kids and adults and has a great view. Looking forward to trying their breakfast next.

    Breakfast/brunch menu

    Went here for brunch/lunch on Sunday. Pretty much just go here for the ambiance, and the nice big dog-friendly patio. I really enjoy that they have a nice grass area for you to let your dog stretch their legs, and have low top tables and couches that let you be nearby your dog. Our service was OK. Right after our server brought our waters over, he spilled one all over the table and didn't even say sorry or attempt to wipe it down, just left it there to run across the table! I thought that was pretty funny but no worries since we were outside. My chicken and waffles were a little measly on the tenders and burnt waffles, which I don't understand why they had charred them! Not a huge deal. Oh and they only have Pepsi products. That was truly the only bummer.

    Crawford Cobb salad - Daryl's way with shrimp
    Gabi M.

    If you're looking for a family friendly venue that offers indoor and outdoor space, a fun vibe, great views, etc... you can't go wrong with Lou's. I've been with my family a handful of times and I have never been disappointed. I will say that my first couple of visits, I was a bit underwhelmed with the food, but I think it's gotten better and I have been impressed with it as of late. On a recent visit, I had a Bloody Mary and a Cobb Salad with Shrimp, and some sweet potato fries. My family also enjoyed wings and pizza. It looks like Lou's does a great job with catering to large groups as it always appears to have private functions going on... I need to keep this in mind for future! I will definitely be back, especially now that my kids seem to be taking up golf!

Junior says that they have a special every day something different and it's really good price for the food that you get. OK, let me tell you legend behind chicken wings. What we got was the 12 wings and found out that they fry them dip them in the sauce that you pick, and they grill the wings and re-dip them again for the sauce that you wanted. Very reasonable prices and a friendly crew. Thanks guys. Next time we are in town will surely be back. We told all our family members about your spot here that haven't been and they will be here to visit. Hands Down, I highly recommend that you check out this restaurant.

Got five pieces of zucchini and four mushrooms (2 of which were tiny) and one fried mystery vegetable. They came out way after the wings. Did the kitchen run out of product, or is this really what you get for $9? They were spread out on a dinner plate accompanied by a mound of spinach (to help fill the space?), which made the combo seem even more sparse. Wish server would have tipped us off not to order this. Went to see Brea Burns Sunday night. Show was supposed to start at 7. Opening act went on about 7:40 and played almost an hour = way too much. Came to see Brea and her band but they came on so late on a Sunday night that we left after just a few songs. We love Dirty Drummer but a few bumps in the road on this trip.

The chicken tenders were fire!!! What is lacking on this occasion was service. The server that we had was so unattentative. I have never been in a cocktail lounge in my life and had to beg for drinks. Our server would wait until every drinks was made for all of her tables before bringing out drinks. It was ridiculous. She was nice but seemed high. I ended up only having 2 drinks. We would have ordered more but they have 90min max seating and we didn't event get drinks for the first 30min. No exaggeration. Also one of my drinks I had to send back. My apple martini tasted like soap. It was like they did clean the glass after giving a soap bath. No bueno. So they need to get their service to match the vibe of a true cocktails lounge. Yes it is a 70s vibe but doesn't mean the lackadaisical style service. I would come back and try again. The music, the atmosphere and the food was good. They gotta get these cocktails together and service. We ended up walking to nearby competitors and that was money lost for DDG.

Coach House is a year-round Christmas-themed bar. Located in Old Town Scottsdale, a block or two away from Fifth Avenue, there's a parking lot that was pretty full when I arrived. If you can't find a spot, you can find some free street parking close by (max of three hours). Ambiance (4/5): A lot of holiday pop-ups these days have entrance fees and expensive holiday-themed cocktails. You'll find none of that pretentiousness here. There's no entrance fee and no elaborate cocktails. The reason to visit is the multitude of Christmas lights that adorn both the patio and the indoor area. There are also a bunch of TVs which makes it a good spot to check out the game. It's mostly a patio bar, but there is some room indoors too. As well as Golden Tee and another game. Service (4.5/5): There's a bouncer checking your ID before you come in. From there, there's a larger bar inside where you can order a drink from one of two bartenders (at least when I was there) or a smaller outdoor bar with one bartender (at least when I was there). There's a cash discount (which I always appreciate). What that means is that they don't charge you tax if you pay by cash. While the bar was busy, the bartenders working were efficient. Food (N/A): Coach House doesn't serve food but they did have a Mexican food truck posted up on the patio while I was there. I didn't have any food during my visit though. Drinks (N/A): Since The Coach House is a dive bar, expect a full bar, but don't expect fancy cocktails. Ordering simple mixed drinks or beer is the way to go. They were out of Montucky Cold Snacks so I went with a Woodchuck Cider for $6. Affordable prices in the heart of Scottsdale... I'll take that any day of the week! Speaking of Christmas miracles, while I was sipping my beer on the patio, I saw two black SUVs pull up. A group of people came out of the cars and there was one person who I immediately recognized. Former NBA MVP and multiple NBA all-star Steve Nash! As a big basketball fan, having a brew at the same bar as a Phoenix Suns legend was pretty epic. On Christmas nonetheless.

    Cute dive bar in Scottsdale…read more I like to pop in around the holidays for some festive fun. The place is decorated throughout the winter months and is usually crowded. Seams to be a lot of regulars. I find both the bar staff and security staff to be friendly. Don't expect to find a nice wine or any but they have plenty of beer and can make most cocktails. They do have mini bottles of Cook's sparkling wine if you are looking for some bubbles but no prosecco. Hit it up for the holidays for the lights and fun crowds.
