The inside is a dark, intimate setting with a variety of different types of seating options which was cool. There is also an outside patio. Service was excellent throughout our visit. Loved being able to make a reservation online. They have a ton of drink choices. The cocktails were delicious and very well made. We also order a half order of bruschetta. Wow, fantastic and perfect for splitting! Would recommend! BlackSheep has a great vibe and ambiance. Perfect spot of date night. Can't wait to come back again!

I've already been to their quiche and pies bakery a few times now - I'm over 30 minutes away, but just try to find excuses to get there! Anyway, the wife and I were looking around for a different steak experience - something a step up for a special evening. Obviously, Scottsdale, Phoenix, and Chandler have some swanky places - dress up and all. But figured if Quiches and Pies is great, Cuisine and Wine can't be worse, and it didn't disappoint. The dining room is a cross between casual and formal - you can dress up, or you can be casual. Excellent wine selection and viewable as you walk in. Friendly, unassuming but professional service. You don't feel like you have to pronounce everything with a French accent. I had a French Pinot, and the wife a glass of white (forgot the name.) Appetizer de jour: stracciatella. The cheese is called cheese described is burrata (I researched it) and its the outer casing fresh mozzarella with a creamy cottage cheese like consistency. Very mild. Served with bruschetta and prosciutto. Main course: Wife - Filet mignon wellington - absolutely excellent. The filet was tender and juicy. The pastry - light and flaky and delicious! Serviced with Gratin potatoes. Excellent. I had duck with a cherry sauce. Served with very thinly sliced fried potatoes. Excellent - my only critique, duck was just a little tough. Desert: I had Pain pardu - bread pudding with carnalized apples. Light, soft, not too rich. Wife had a chocolate lava cake - like eating a chocolate mousse truffle. Excellent. Nice change of pace. Looking forward to going back maybe around Christmas to try something else on the menu. Its not cheap. Was it worth the price? Yes - nice atmosphere, excellent food, great wine selection. Nice place for a special occasion.

I had a glass of the cabernet on HH ($10.50 for a 9 oz. pour) and thought it was very nice. We also had garlic knots, which were just ok for me. I like them softer and more buttery. I expected more tomatoes and stuff in the Diavolo Shrimp but the shrimp and broth went nicely with the crusty bread. I also got Margherita pizza, which wasn't my favorite but this is very much personal preference and I am very picky about pizza. Too much cheese and not the right cheese. But a nice amount of basil! My friends had the chicken parm and the short rib pasta and enjoyed them. They had a chocolate mousse as a dessert special which was tempting but alas I had over ordered already. Our server was attentive and friendly. All in all a nice neighborhood option with a varied menu for different preferences.

Hubby especially loved the artisan cheeses, so we went to get a couple of our favorites, the Port Wine Derby and Shropshire Blue. Mahfam greeted us and was super friendly as usual. Unfortunately they were out of both cheeses. She did have a small chunk of Shropshire Blue left though and gave it to us for free! Mahfam recommended a different cheese for us to try and it was excellent so we got half a pound. Hubby ended up loving her recommendation even more than the other two. Mahfam knows her cheese! They also offer gourmet charcuterie boards plus sandwiches and salads. This is just a very cool little place to discover new cheeses, and gourmet goodies and leave with something you didn't know you needed. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the cheese selection.

My wife and I came here for a lunch date on a Friday. No wait for seating. Service was friendly,…read morecourteous and checked in often. They made good food and wine recommendations. We had bacon dates to start. These were tasty but not quite like we imagined. They were sweet and salty which was great. The blue cheese stuffing didn't quite jump out like we expected. For wine, my wife likes sweet wine. She tried the Riesling first, then the Moscato. Moscato was hands down her winner, it was sweeter. For me, I tried the Murphy Goode red blend and I enjoyed it a lot. Good balance, complexity, and smoothness. For the main course my wife had the Pasta Bolognese. It came with rigatoni noodles. The sauce was nice and thick and coated the noodles really well. It had a big robust flavor but wasn't overpowering. I had the Chicken Saltimbocca. The sauce was a bit on the sweet side for my preference due to what tasted like a bit of balsamic, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was well cooked and tender. We tried a cannoli for dessert. The thing was huge! Shell was thick and crunchy. Filling was moderately sweet with a subtle brightness to it (like a touch of lemon). Ends were dipped in chopped pistachio.

The…read moreatmosphere is modern, warm, and inviting, making it a great spot for a date night or special occasion. One of my favorite parts is the wine tasting area right in the lobby. Cooper's Hawk produces an impressive variety of its own wines, and being able to sample different selections while waiting for your table is a really enjoyable touch. The lobby also has a retail area with beautiful glassware, wine accessories, and unique home décor and knickknacks that are fun to browse. We enjoyed a flight of four red wines before dinner, along with the crab, shrimp, and lobster bisque and their signature pretzel bread. For our entrées, we ordered the surf and turf featuring pistachio-crusted grouper and a bourbon lacquered pork chop, along with the shrimp and scallop risotto. The dishes were beautifully presented, with a nice variety of ingredients and flavors. What I particularly appreciate about Cooper's Hawk is that the experience extends beyond just sitting down for dinner. Between the extensive wine selection, lobby tastings, shopping area, and polished dining atmosphere, they've created a place where the entire evening feels like an experience. Our server was very nice and explained the menu to us. Definitely worth visiting, especially if you enjoy exploring different wines and appreciate a restaurant with a little something extra to offer.

My favorite, though, was surprisingly the Espresso Martini. Since they don't serve liquor, I was a little skeptical when the bartender recommended it. I believe it's made with some type of cider, but somehow it really does taste like an espresso martini, topped with cinnamon and spice. So good! The bartender was really nice, and I loved their "Employee of the Year" display featuring the dog. Clearly good people! My only complaints were the limited parking and, unfortunately, the smell inside. It was pretty musty, and that was really the only reason I couldn't stay for more than one drink. Otherwise, it's a fun, casual neighborhood spot that I'd definitely come back to -- especially for another one of those espresso martinis!
