They do not have a huge tasting room down there though, so this location is Scottsdale is the only place to try their wines (unless you make an appointment at the vineyard in Pierce.) They run a very small operation but have been around for a while. My husband and I came here on a Saturday around 415pm and there was plenty of seating available. They offer indoor or outdoor seating. Parking is on the street, or in one of the nearby garages. There was also valet parking available on Saturday evening but not sure if thats always available during the week. We choose to sit inside at this cute corner nook area. Lots of fun wine decor everywhere. They had four wine flights to choose from and also offered glasses of specific wines. Food is also available for purchase. Michael was super nice and knowledgeable about everything. I choose the Volcanic Flavor Burst flight and my husband chose the Taste of LDV. We each shared our wines to taste more. Both of us loved the first wine from each flight, his being a white Viognier and mine a petite Syrah. We bought a bottle of each. Since we had dinner reservations, they held our wine for us and we came back to pick it up afterwards. We will be back and might even try to check out the vineyard down south.

Stopped by LDV Winery during the wine trail. Overall, it was just okay…read more The staff was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated, and the vibe was decent relaxed but nothing that really stood out. The wines themselves weren't very impressive to me, especially the reds. They lacked depth and complexity and came across a bit flat compared to other spots on the trail. Drinkable, but nothing that really stood out or made me want to take a bottle home. With so many stronger wine stops in the area, this probably wouldn't be one I'd go back to.

Date of visit: June 6, 2026…read more This was one of the visits on our Arizona Food Tour and while I don't drink wine (or anything, really) we had a lovely experience here at the Aridus Tasting Room in Old Town Scottsdale. Giovanni (or Gio for short) was a cute and wonderful host, explaining the various items on our tasting board--cleverly shaped like the state of Arizona, of course--as well as the various things he was serving my mom. Mom is by no means a wine connoisseur, and she definitely prefers the sweet wines over the dry ones. But she managed to find some things that she didn't mind during our stay. For me, the delicious cheese and salami was wonderful and while I didn't love the NA Aperol Spritz, I appreciated the opportunity to try it.

This was my first and last cooking class for Sur La Table. This experience was a gift from a friend…read moreso I felt obligated to stay. Overall, this had weird and unpleasant vibes. TERRIBLE INSTRUCTOR * Even after addressing that a majority of the class were new, the instructor kept speed-reading through steps. * When students asked her to repeat steps, she sounded inconvenienced. * When a student was slower than others, she would laugh or sigh loudly then talk about it with her assistants. * When the instructor asked students about the flavor and some didn't like it, she got offended. * At one point, the instructor was rushing steps and leaving some students behind, eyeing people down and being overtly impatient by going to other students that were fine on their own. * When talking about allergens in food, she kept dismissing people and insisting the dish needed it, which felt insensitive. * When people mentioned the room was too noisy and we couldn't hear instructions, she visibly looked annoyed. I'd recommend a headset and sound system for the room so everyone can hear instructions. FOOD TASTED MEDIOCRE * When a student mentioned that there wasn't a lot of flavor in the dish, she misunderstood this as "you didn't put enough (spiciness)". No, this is lacking other spices. It's bland. It's the same blandness as just salt on chicken. This is a dish I've made before and have had multiple times at authentic restaurants. Even without the (spiciness) element at said restaurants, this iteration was gross and bland. It felt modified for consumers that don't like Thai flavors. TERRIBLE SETUP * Near the end of the class, four pans on high heat were right next to each other on the burner. This meant that a group of people were cheek-to-cheek and elbow-to-elbow while cooking on high. It would have made more sense to have a heat plate at each station, or have the groups cut in half (or two stations' ingredients combined) to prevent crowding. * When cooking in the kitchen with a crowd of people, we were asked to put metal dishes next to machines that were taking up more than half of the counter, which made it more crowded. It felt disorganized. * The class was estimated to take 2-3 hours and it only took 1 hour since they kept rushing us. It was already a big red flag when the instructor said that Trader Joe's food is so flavorful... but her pretentious and condescending attitude made the class very unpleasant. I wouldn't recommend this if you're new to cooking and or trying to learn a new recipe. There are more friendly chefs and instructors out there.

Today, I called to confirm we were signed up for the Father's Day "Special" which was offered with pizza, and if we could order a 2nd bottle of this "special" wine, in advance. I was very rudely told by the manager, their online reservations were turned off, and there was no reservation for us. He then said, I should have known that they weren't accepting reservations, especially if I didn't receive a confirmation! It was offensive as I make a number of online & phone reservations, without getting a confirmation, and have never had a problem. Why should the customer assume that your reservations are turned off? There are a number of ways this manager could have resolved the situation, but he chose to blame the customer, which especially under these circumstances, (& in the restaurant business) is never okay. Never-the-less, there are so many pizza/Italian restaurants to pick from, we will be patronizing them from now on.
