The new expanded Pescada is awesome! Visually pleasing, friendly efficient staff. We were promptly seated and quickly greeted by our server. He was professional and knowledgeable about the menu. After our drinks were served( rather slow bar service for the waitstaff), we were informed in detail about the specials. Our orders were taken and arrived in perfect timing, giving adequate time for drinks and conversation. Food for all four of us was excellent! Great evening, we'll be back soon and offen! read more

Pescada is a newer seafood restaurant in North Scottsdale that gives off a Mediterranean seafood vibe and has a beautiful restaurant perfect for dining with friends, family or the special someone. I would love to go for happy hour and apps, the environment is very lively with outdoor seating when the weather is nice! We started with the Trio of Dips, the whipped ricotta was delicious and the sourdough loaf was amazing and still warm. Great way to start your meal! The Portuguese Stew was our favorite dish, the white fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce paired perfect with the vegetables and fish. I ate it together with the rice, Calabrian chili, and herbs that came with it. The short rib agnolotti was another great dish that melted in your mouth and had a great cambozola cheese that added a lot of flavor. Great visit, look forward to going back! read more

Great spot in DC Ranch. Nice seating areas both inside and out; patios have plenty of heaters. The bar and lounge area had a good vibe. Service was nice and the food was delicious. Lobster Bisque was great ...cognac (cream) was listed in the ingredients, which always makes a better bisque. The vegetables in the Charred Vegetable Plate were so tasty and the broccolini was amazing. The Chilean Sea Bass was good, as was the cauliflower-potato mash. The Beef Tenderloin Skewers were just okay; the presentation was a bit stark and the beef a bit grisly (almost impossible for tenderloin). Overall, a nice outdoor experience so we will likely return. read more

We have been there many times between the first time, but this time might be our last time. Zander was our waiter and was fabulous. I love the changes of the remodel. It's absolutely beautiful inside. The food didn't lead up to our expectations. We've been here many times before but when you experience one out of seven things was really good. The rest of it for what they charged, the amount for the money, the taste, the quality was very subpar. Our tab was over 300 before tip! The experience was not worth the money! So sad. I just CAN'T recommend it. read more

We love this place! The new bar is beautiful. This has been our go to for HH for the last couple of months. We have also dined in the main dining room (which was excellent), but we prefer the vibe in the bar area. The bartenders are all so friendly and the HH menu is excellent. We love the chicken, lamb & shrimp skewers. We haven't been in on Tuesday yet for their oyster special but we plan to try it soon. We love all of Sheila's restaurants. She takes great pride in running excellent restaurants that we continue to frequent on a regular basis. read more

Great service and delicious food! The beet salad was so fresh and delicious. For the main dish we had the short rib pasta and the Moroccan Chicken Skewers. Will definitely be back. read more

Really pretty restaurant, friendly staff, interesting menu. LOVE their huge selection of tinned fish. Your choice served with a few slices of bread, pickled nibbles, butter and two kinds of salt (yum). Order with a glass of cava (on HH) and you have the perfect girl dinner. They serve a few n/a options which is appreciated. We also tried the dip trio. Bread was tasty, and comes with more salty butter, but I wasn't a big fan of the dips- creamy and good for spreading, but not super flavorful. Roasted beets and burrata is big enough for a few to share. Pasta paperonata [sic] is served hot in a pretty bowl. All of the portions are large and good for sharing. Lots of other tasty sounding things on the menu. Nice place if you live in the neighborhood but didn't love it enough to drive all the way there again. read more

I really do enjoy Pescada so much. My true rating is a 4.5 so I rounded up to 5. There's aspects of it that are well beyond a 5 but it's not perfect. I really enjoy myself every time we come here. Sitting on the patio is nice and quiet. The vibe is chill and relaxing. I'm fond of the menu. There's always a variety of things to try and I like that because I get so tired of the usual Scottsdale steak and potato scene. The service is always quite good and I personally enjoy the nice touches like the Mediterranean vibes on the table settings and atmosphere. Cocktails were probably the best part of the experience. The Bar never disappoints. I tried both the Rose cocktail and the Sicilian one (base was a fig vodka with blood orange ginger beer). Both were nice but Sicialian was definitely better. I was expecting more of a rose flavor from the Rose drink but it was heavy on lemon. My husband enjoyed Golden hour cocktail. For dinner, we started with oysters. I believe their oyster selection and service is the best in the area (and better than the places that have Oyster in their name). However We ordered the Thai chili mignonette as an extra accoutrement. It arrived frozen (not ok) and was not spicy at all. Total disappointment bc it sounds good on the menu. We also were upcharged for the tablespoon of horseradish which was a little disappointing. I assumed it would come with the 8 oysters we ordered and not something we even care that much to have. But the oysters themselves were divine and the regular mignonette was quite good. For another starter, we ordered frito Misto which was a calamari appetizer with cauliflower and other items. The server told us in advance that it was heavily fried (I asked when we were ordering) and she was right. It was way too breaded and fried for me (and in my opinion for a restaurant of this type) but my husband liked it. I normally order a salad as a starter and I wish I just did that because I generally enjoy their salads. And eating heavy bar-type food before dinner is not my thing. For dinner I had the branzino which was very good. My husband enjoyed his swordfish (breaded). We were too stuffed for dessert and nothing was wowing us on the dessert menu. Overall a nice evening, made most pleasant by the cocktails and oysters. Next time I would like to try a more tapas style dinner. I also saw they were offering canned fish and that also peaked my interest! Will be back read more

Beautiful new oyster bar located inside of Pescada. This new addition is called Sheila's Oyster Bar. Beautiful aesthetics, great music selection, fresh quality seafood with stunning presentation. I enjoyed our visit and we explored quite a bit of options. Oysters are a must, the scallop main course was a hit and the sea bass was phenomenal. read more

As someone who is gluten free because of celiac disease, finding restaurants that have extensive options and knowledgeable staff (our waitress Paige) is the best feeling. My boyfriend and I stopped by on a whim for the raw bar and a drink but ended up having a lot of fun just trying different things. Everything we tried was delicious and fresh. The flavors all complemented each other well and the occasional hint of spice was a nice touch on the chicken skewers. As someone who has worked in fine dining/upscale resorts, Sheila and her staff have an insane eye for detail and presentation. The entire restaurant is immaculate and you can tell she hand picked everything including the backsplash tiling of the bar. If you're looking for an intimate date night spot or a beautiful place to people watch, definitely try it out- gluten free or not. read more

Love this little gem! We stopped randomly to grab a quick bite on Easter and ordered some skewers (lamb and chicken) and a salad. I paired the food with a glass of Pecorino which was really delicious. Fast and very professional service. We decided to sit outside, they have a cooling system in the patio so it doesn't really get super hot. Can't wait to try more things soon!! read more

They've recently redone the spot so my mom and I had to come back for a visit with their new decor and menu. Went with the salmon and a mocktail and they were both delicious.

Great ambiance, they did a great job with the updates and I'm sure we'll be back read more

Sheila, you did it again! I was blown away by my first visit to Pescada, a most charming coastal Mediterranean restaurant with a very creative and delectable and fun menu that underwent a very extensive and lovely renovation and expansion ! The staff is so welcoming and professional and the patio is delightful and dog friendly. Thank you Jarrot , Cole and Trey for being so kind and pleasant. The menus are stunning look at and offer something for everyone at approachable price points plus Delectable appetizers, and expertly crafted drinks. I chose a Mojito and Duck confit agnolotti as my entree and they were both exquisite. Their tin fish menu is particularly impressive along with the cocktail and wine list. Altogether a superb addition to Dc ranch marketplace. I look forward to returning very soon! read more

We went for a date night! What a great romantic spot. Nice Mediterranean style menu with lots of seafood. We shared the mussels and oysters, then had the Spanish charred octopus and the sea bass. We also had fun cocktails. Loved their actual dishes and plates. Super excited to check it out after the expansion is done this fall! Can't wait for the new oyster bar and more patio space. It looks like they will be updating their menu and their tapas menu as well. Aperitivo hour here we come! read more

Sheila (owner of Pescada, Vic & Ola's. Alma, etc) has done a great job with the recently remodeled Pescada that is lovely, golden and warm. Felt really comfy after a warm greeting at the door. Good service from our waiter, Kayla. But we go out to eat and drink, and at Pescada we got excellent Coastal Mediterranean food for a reasonable price. Our starters included the olives and a lovely Tri-color salad with arugula, endive, and radicchio tossed in a light vinaigrette. For dinner the artichoke risotto was excellent as a side to our linguine puttanesca and the Chilean Sea Bass on cauliflower mashed and brocollini...the cauliflower mashed was delicious as was the Sea Bass., linguine and risotto. One last thing: Our cocktails were really good, and the price for the entire meal was reasonable {under 200.) Way to go Sheila...we will come back and try out your new Oyster Bar next door! read more

Don't go to Happy Hour at Pescada. They now reserve the entire bar for the people they want to sit there. If you are not part of the Jordan favored you are not allowed to be seen at the bar. We really liked this place but they don't want everyone in their restaurant. The last time we sat at the bar, Jordan chose to ignore us, until he had to wait on us. You have to bring him in presents to be in his group. There are so many better places than Pescada in North Scottsdale, don't waste your money or time. Best of luck Pescada!!!!! read more

I have to be honest.. this is one of my favorites in N Scottsdale and we looked so forward to seeing and experiencing Pescada after its extensive renovation and opening. My husband & I had a reservation for Valentine's Day night .. something of a 'anniversary' for us .. as it was a first date for us. I was looking forward to getting out finally as I have been recovering from a severe accident I sustained in early January and this would be one of my first real nights , ( and tests!) out. We arrived for our reservation and waited about 20 minutes past our reservation time - my husband finally asked if we were okay & even said that we were fine for any open table. We were sat near the door, which we agreed to. We started with one waiter who took our drink order- than another came about 10 min later & he apologized- retaking the order. We ordered the Salmon Dip-Roe & Chips & also the Bacon Wrapped Dates to start along with a Cava and cocktail. I was not impressed with either of the starters- both were entirely too salty. The caviar came with no caviar spoon or way to serve it or the dip and I asked for it -- the server said he had not seen that spoon with this. But there was no way to serve either of the apps ? Do we use our fingers?? Or the chips ? FWIW, caviar or 'roe' is to be served with a caviar mother of pearl spoon or it ruins the taste of the caviar if served with metal. My husband's cocktail was odd - a fig - mezcal creation which just fell flat on the palate. My entree was the Blue Crab Lemon Pasta and my husband had the Stuffed Sole -- a special for the night. My entree was served hot in a Staub on a saucer (?? ) -- I had no utensils for several minutes while waiting for our waiter to return or anyone for that matter -- and my husbands sole was warm to the touch and super bland -- my entree again - over salted. We had ordered a bottle of Fleurie for dinner which our server tried to serve while we still were having our cocktails & I declined the bottle and now we had our dinner ( albeit me no utensils) and no wine and empty water glasses. The wine finally came and I didn't love it as it appeared to be oxidized and the waiter should have caught it. I thought I would let it sit for a moment after tasting it and if he returned I would say something. That said when he did return which was one time at the end of our meal -- my husband leaving most of his fish and my saying I didn't like the wine .. he took it away. We did love the Chocolate Caviar- a unique chocolate budino dessert served with crisp cookies. I felt Pescada was over booked and the service showed. The ambience was loud .. SO loud with the music which I don't remember before and we didn't care for this time. We want to hear each other speak not the sound of club music grinding in our ear which is not why we go to dinner. We love Pescada because it has such a Spain meets Portugal vibe so I truly hope this was a over busy night with just a silly bunch of mis-steps on service because we were super disappointed in so many ways. From the food - presentation of the food and wine - and reading the guests -- like when they don't eat or drink it's a sign and you need to fix it and ask. read more

Pescada is comfortably classy with certified flavor adventures on all the dishes we tried. Lovely decor in the outdoor pavilion style area that connects through the central bar to the main restaurant. I got the scallops which were divine. In my photo you can see four huge scallops resting upon a bed of butternut squash puree, foraged mushrooms and pomegranate arils. The kale is great too. Texturally this was a really thoughtful dish. Others at my table enjoyed the swordfish Milanese with a zesty aioli that had a bit of kick, again dynamic! The Chilean sea bass was tasty too. I have to recommend my scallops above all. The bacon wrapped dates, sourdough boule, and fritto misto also made for great apps. The burrata with golden beets was a crowd pleaser. Great contrast with the earthy beets. For dessert the pear cake with ice cream and caramel was warm, cinnamon forward and a home run. Thanks Pescada. read more

Great restaurant with friendly staff in a very nice plaza. We enjoyed the delicious food on their beautiful patio. We started with oysters and they were great. As appetizer we had the seafood medley with shrimp, calamari , zucchini and broccoli. Not quite a fan of the heavy tempura batter. I thought it was a bit excessive . The dipping sauce however was finger looking good. Their Greek salad was quite nice with a unique presentation. We had the halibut and the sea bass and both were delicious. The portions are quite big. Overall we will definitely go back. read more

We are regular customers at Pescada and thoroughly enjoy our experience every time. From the food to the atmosphere and especially the staff. From the General Manager Jarret to our favorite bar tenders Cole and Jordan to all of the staff, the experience it outstanding. Chef Joshua is great and we love both his specials as well as the regular items on the menu. We were regulars before they renovated the restaurant but now love it even more with the newer Oyster bar and expanded dining area. If you haven't checked out this North Scottsdale gem, what are you waiting for? :-) read more

You HAVE to get the bacon wrapped dates! Best dish I've ever had in my life! The crab croquettes were very bland, not much flavor. Same goes for the pasta. The lobster rolls were so good, totally worth it. The vibe inside was decent, nothing memorable. The service was also pretty good, no complaints. It's not a place I'd be itching to go back to but it was definitely good. 7.5/10. Thank you! read more

We actually came here on two consecutive nights. The first was Thursday and we sat at the bar on the patio and were served by the super friendly bartender Jordan, then Friday night with friends. The cocktails that are on the happy hour menu are not very good. They are gin-based drinks using tonic waters that are so aromatic and floral that you can't finish one. Luckily Jordan saved the day and made me a much more well-balanced and less floral tasting drink. We enjoyed the different take on bacon wrapped dates these were almond and Cambozola cheese stuffed sitting on orange marmalade. The mini grilled cheese were not browned they just seemed like hard pieces of a narrow baguette with more cheese in them. They were tasty although too greasy. The "salmon" deviled eggs really didn't taste like salmon, yet they were light and still flavorful. There were some large salmon roe eggs on the top and maybe that's what they meant by salmon. The house made squid ink pasta with shrimp was very flavorful although overpriced for just a few shrimp in a small bowl. The octopus was seriously underwhelming. One single grilled tentacle on a bitter, unbalanced green sauce with 3 tablespoons of a diced potato, onion and olive mixture. It didn't eat well together and we don't recommend it. The crabcake with shaved fennel was good however we've had crabcakes with less of a homogenous texture. It seemed like the crab had been really over mixed and it didn't look like lump crab. The flavor was good although the shaved fennel was a little boring not having been dressed with anything. The summer cappeletti with mini pattypan squash and sautéed mushrooms was light with good flavor. The halibut was watery, somewhat mushy and lacking flavor and was not up to par for a restaurant that has fish in its name! The steak tartare was not a good choice. My bad for ordering that! The egg yolk was too large for the amount of meat and the texture of the beef was disappointing - there was some connective tissue and really chewy pieces. It needed cornichons and more flavor in the meat itself. The crunchy pieces of bread served with it were very tasty. The ciabatta was too oily however the salt on the top was tasty, and the whipped crab was a light change of pace to butter. The hazelnut gelato was perfect in flavor and texture - not too soft. The chocolate mousse, was sinfully smooth and light. To match the price and upscale ambiance the savory food needs to be better. Based on only getting two of the sweet dishes the dessert offerings seem solid... Will we return? Not sure based on hearing that they are closing for four months to redo the interior space and make it much larger. Hopefully they keep the same ambiance and the savory food gets better. read more

My husband found this spot randomly when we were discussing where we would love to have our first anniversary dinner. We checked the menu and saw a lot we would love to eat and also saw that they had their happy hour even on Saturday until 6pm and they had their Frito misto along with drinks on there! With the pricing a little on the higher side, we thought even enjoying one hour of happy hour would be good. I did only give this 4 stars because their website did not advise that happy hour would only be on the patio and at the bar. Also when we were ordering, I was telling our server that the happy hour pricing was great so we ordered a couple drinks and the Frito misto. At the end of our dinner, we were told that happy hour pricing was only at the bar and the patio. We still enjoyed the food so that was not such a bad thing but it did make me cringe a bit since she knew I was looking at the happy hour menu and she could have mentioned at that point that the happy hour was not for the inside portion of the restaurant. Outside of that, the food was incredible. Probably the best spaghetti and clams I've had! The anniversary card was also a good touch for a coupling for next time. The ambiance was pretty comfortable and cozy. The decor was nice and we did get a huge booth. I would like the patio next time for happy hour and great weather. read more

What a wonderful setting and picturesque restaurant. Exceptional staff, Dan our server went above and beyond with our special ingredient requests and also with the couple next to us. Very attentive. Food was wonderful, everything we ordered was perfect. Pescada is set in the Market area off Pima, the whole complex is unique to Scottsdale/Phoenix and a beautiful setting at night all full of lights. Many restaurants and bars, stores too. Pescada has a huge outdoor patio open to the bar area with heaters as well as a beautifully decorated interior. Most of the food served is seafood but a few meat dishes are available like lamb and ribeye. read more

Pescada is a hidden gem, Spanish style, in the DC Ranch marketplace. Excellent seafood that also includes a selection of Spanish tin specialties. You must try the grilled Octopus appetizer. They recently renovated and added an oyster bar. The wine list is extensive and esoteric. Most importantly, great food and great service. Pricey but well worth it! read more

We came to Pescada for happy hour and were blown away. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely outstanding--Chris did an amazing job and made the experience even better. Every dish we tried was excellent: the oysters were fresh and briny, the calamari perfectly cooked, and both the lobster bisque and Moroccan carrot soup were rich and full of flavor. We topped it all off with the seafood paella, which was absolutely phenomenal. The cocktails were just as impressive as the food. Pescada is a must-visit in Scottsdale, and we can't wait to return. read more

We were very impressed with Pescada. The atmosphere, the service, and the food overall. The best mocktails we have found in Scottsdale! Nowhere comes close. The food was amazing. I will say my salmon was overdone (they said medium but it wasn't) but my husband's halibut was perfection. I'll just skip the salmon next time maybe. I highly recommend. read more

We had the best night at Sheila's Oyster Bar. We had the olives, bread and butter/olive oil, eggplant caprese, crab croquettes and pistachio cheesecake and every bite was delicious!

This was my first time at this restaurant last week and I absolutely will be back, it was a little windy outside, but we tried to sit on the patio anyway, and we were out there for a bit until we ordered our entrées and then we decided we wanted to go inside and our server and the staff were so accommodating and nice even though it was a little difficult! The food also was incredible. All of us loved all of our dishes that we had carrot, bruschetta, basil, clam spaghetti, mahi-mahi, special, fish tacos everything was excellent and fresh.! I also really enjoyed the ambience of the patio and since we went inside, got to experience that as well very comfortable relaxing setting. Just a great vibe altogether. read more

My daughter and her BF intended to treat us for Happy Hour, as she was craving mussels. Me and GF were craving the Gambas al Ajillo... although neither dish was to grace our table due to Arizona Restaurant Week menu taking priority. We debated ditching for another option, yet stayed. The drinks were hand crafted and flavorful (and beautiful) although slow to make it to the table. Food around the table varied as minds were preset on the Gambas. The seafood paella was a worthy substitute. The kiddo had a Seafood Stew and her man had Branzino, both from the Restaurant Week menu. Lindsee was a true professional and cheerful as our server. She was a key reason for us staying on. While the dining room and patio were busy, it was not a slam crowd, so questioning why slower in drink/food delivery, hence the 1-Star deduct. Will report back following a successful Happy Hour visit! (Note. I rescued my daughter paying the tab, as not HH prices). read more

I am just blown away! What a beautiful spot! The decor is amazing and so is the area around Pescada. We had amazing, attentive, and super friendly service by Rachel when my gym partner and I came for restaurant week (night of Sept 24). Pescada has an amazing selection of food and drink. There are tons of cocktails I would be glad to come back and try, but my gym partner and I had our respective glasses of red and white wine which were delightful. We started with the "Crisp Artichokes and Lemon" and "Papas Bravas & Salmon". WOW! The artichoke appetizer was a flavor explosion, and the papas bravas had this amazing texture and taste that is indescribable. For entrees, we got the "Sugar Pie Pumpkin Risotto" and the "Lobster Mezzaluna". Both of these dishes blew us away. We were so full at this point but it was hard to stop eating - everything looked and tasted just amazing. The desserts, "Roja Creme Brulee" and the "Lemon Almond Cake" were a great end to the night. Everything was super pretty you almost just don't want to eat it! Thanks for such a great night! I WILL BE BACK! read more

Wow! I have nothing bad to say about our visit to Pescada. We are just sad we don't have one back home. They provided great service. We sat on the outside patio, which was beautiful. The food was amazing: fresh and delicious! We had the oysters (which were so fresh!), mussels (these were okay), focaccia (yum), basil spaghetti and clams (tasty, but would rec another dish), paella (husband loved this), and sea bass (which was the best sea bass I've ever ordered; slight crisp on the outside and tender buttery like in the middle- like whoa). Like I said, sad to not have one at home. We look forward to visiting again next time! read more

Pescada is a beautiful restaurant that looked to have a ton of potential but fell short in multiple areas. Upon walking in the hostess greeted us with a smile, was very nice and let us pick our table. Our server came over promptly and was courteous, personable, and told us about the menu and the region of food they serve. The surroundings were well thought out and the restaurant was visually well done. The music choice on the other hand didn't match the interior vibe. They were playing pop cover music, think Brittney Spears but not sung by Brittney, that seemed more fitting for a kids trampoline park than a nice restaurant. We started off with a half a dozen blue point oysters that were decent, not great. We've eaten oysters all over the country and these fell flat comparatively. After our appetizer we ordered our mains, Halibut for my wife, a Caesar salad, and the Blue Crab pasta for me. The Caesar salad was delicious, the dressing was one of the better ones I've had. My only fault here is they bring you a head of romaine on a plate, not cut up. The head is large and when trying to cut it on the plate with a butter knife, it goes everywhere. The fantastic dressing is already drizzled on the head of romaine so it gets a little messy. I'd order it again and just ask them to cut it up. The blue crab pasta is also very good, it needed a little bit of salt and pepper, but once added, it too was delicious. This is where things went south. This is a fish restaurant which was touted by the server for its fish dishes flown in daily. The halibut comes out and was overcooked and very dry so my wife sent it back to get remade. We hate sending stuff back because that means we don't get to eat together, but if you're paying $51 for Halibut and it's not right, what do you do? They took the whole dish back and tried again and by the time the new dish came out, I was almost finished with my meal. The second attempt was under cooked and still fridge cold in the middle. We asked to send the manager over so we could talk to him and he came over promptly. We showed him the raw fish and he started saying that he understood our first fish was over cooked and that this time they wanted to make sure it wasn't. He acted like he couldn't understand our issue so I had to explain to him that we wanted the fish cooked properly so that it is flaky, tender, and moist not dry or raw. He asked if he could remake it a third time or get us something different so my wife asked to see a menu. My wife and I understand that Halibut is a lean fish and can be difficult to cook properly. She was really looking forward to the Halibut and was the reason why we came to this restaurant in the first place. We passed on letting them try a third time and told our server, who was very understanding and apologetic, that we would take our bill. We left the restaurant and went to SumoMaya for their Miso Seabass which I can't recommend enough. read more
