Please bring back your glass crusty bread for sandwiches. The noble hot dog bread you are trying out is not the standard you need to provide your customers. Thumbs down on the new hot dog bread that you are using for your sandwiches. read more

Pro-tip: The skewers come with your choice of dipping sauce, but you can ask for a sampler of all of them for free. If you're doing a celebration, they give you a small box of four chocolate truffles. The parking garage nearby is free. Highlights: I think Pinyon is a top restaurant in the valley for sure. I've been here twice, but I have very little complaints with the food. My favorites are the chicken skewers which are so tender and juicy and I love the lentil rice that comes with it. The shareable hummusiya platter is really fun. I usually like to get one hummus, the baba ghanoush and the pistachio labneh if they have it. The lobster salad is also really refreshing and delicious. I love the variety of foods that's offered here. The service is also exceptional and they are so kind and attentive. We were celebrating a birthday and they let us bring in a cake and were so on top of bringing us extra cutlery and dishes and even keeping the box for us in case we had leftovers. Lowlights: It's definitely a spendier meal than usual - I would come for celebrations and not just a casual dinner. I think the least worth it items are the patatas bravas because you only get six, the chicken schnitzel because it's a very small portion, the shashuka was overwhelmingly salty. Sadly, our oysters did have sand and some shell pieces in them. read more

Ooof I wanted to like this place so much! Stopped by during brunch on the 4th for their all-day $4 spritz specials. Drinks and service were great, but the food totally missed the mark. Started with the artichoke hummus + pita ($15). The hummus texturally was lush and smooth, but absolutely no flavor. Cubes of artichoke were sprinkled around...but other than that, there was no artichoke incorporated. The pita was honestly disappointing...not sure it even deserves to be called pita. Very doughy, no puff in the middle (was it overproofed...was the yeast forgotten??), with zero char/color; visually and texturally, it resembled a large, undercooked english muffin. For brunch mains, we both got the beef kafta ($26), which comes with 2 fried eggs, potato wedges, and arugula salad. The two eggs eclipse the beef patty, which was completely underseasoned and overcooked. Potato wedges were very good, super crispy and tender, and the arugula salad and eggs were good (but how can you really mess that up). We started with the Sant'Andrea Spritz (HUGE and easily our favorite of the bunch), followed by Take Me to Othos (grapefruit x tequila), then the Huge Spritz (huge, glorified lemonade). I finished with the refreshing Sailboats & Trains (cucumber) which was a perfect close to the meal. Four drink maximum per guest btw... The atmosphere, ambiance and service are all great, don't get me wrong. The decoration is very euro-inspired, and the open kitchen is a nice touch. The food is very beautifully delivered, but that was all that was delivered - no flavor, no seasoning, no consistency. I feel like once Pinyon brings their food quality to meet everything else, they'd be an unbeatable spot. In the meantime, I will likely not come back solely for mains. HOWEVER I peeped their happy hour menu which will likely get me back in the door for oysters + drinks (Sant'Andrea Spritz 4eva). read more

The good: Server was excellent. He was attentive, able to answer questions, and just an overall kind person. The view at night of the rest of the Civic Center was also great. It was had the vibes of an excellent date night. The food looks good and is great for photos. That's why it is 3 stars and not 2 or 1. The bad: The food and its taste. Most of why I go out to eat is the food so that's why this alone takes down the review to 3 stars. Why? We ordered the Pistachio Hummus to start. The hummus itself was good. Best part of the entire meal. The pita bread that it came in was fluffy was bland. To be honest, no different than a good brand of grocery store pita bread. Next came the disastrous entrees. We ordered the Lamb Shakshuka and the Lobster Ravioli to start. The Shakshuka didn't even have egg in it to begin with. The lamb meatballs that were in it did not taste of lamb at all. The shakshuka itself tasted like American chili. The basmati rice that came with the Shakshuka was abhorrent and I don't use that word lightly. It tasted like the rice was cooked in dish water. I am not even joking. I ate it and immediately was grossed out. I even asked my partner what she thought of the food, and unprompted without my opinion said it tasted like they boiled it in dirty dish water. Then came the lobster ravioli. It was creamy but the taste was so subtle, it barely had any flavor. The lobster was there but barely had a taste even with the sauce. So all in all the ravioli was a disappointment. Not at all what was expected. Especially for the price of $42, it was barely any food. After feeling hungry still, we ordered another dish we wanted to try, the Saffron Risotto. Shrimp flavor was good but was overcooked. It made the shrimp hard and chewy instead of soft and juicy. However, like the basmati, the risotto rice tasted also like dish water. This restaurant has a problem where it must use sink water to cook and it shows up in the food profile. Overall it was extremely disappointing and out of the $130 worth of food we ordered, the only food we didn't regret was the $15 pistachio hummus. read more

I've been here twice and both visits did not disappoint. The hummus is so delicious and flavorful. The bread tastes super fresh and is so fluffy. I've had the burger both times because it just hits the spot! My friends said the seafood options were really good and better than expected. Their wines are decently priced and good flavors. Also the espresso martini is incredible. Both visits the servers were very friendly and helpful! read more

Absolutely loved dining here! All the food we got were delicious and I cannot wait to go back to try out other items! The hummusiya is a must get!! It seems like they change this daily and we had five options to choose from. We ended up with the marinated artichoke hummus, baba ganoush, and pistachio labneh. All three were SO GOOD and it came with pita bread. My favorites were lobster salad, chicken schnitzel, linguine and clams, filet mignon skewers! The lobster salad had big chucks of lobster and the dressing was light and made the overall dish very refreshing! Chicken schnitzel was crispy and tender. Only problem was we wanted more of it. The linguine and clam dish was very delicious! The noodles were al dente and the clams were good sizes. Or were. Filet mignon came with rice, greens, and tomatoes. If too rare, they are able to heat it back up to your comfort level. Only thing I was disappointed in were the oysters. We got 6 oysters and all of them had sand in it. When we asked the server they said the oyster types we got are like that.... I love oysters, but having the two types we picked didn't convince me to want more. Parking was easy to find. There's a parking garage right by the restaurant. Highly recommend coming here!! read more

Amazing meal accompanied by top service. We were there 3ish hours and were never rushed out. Although it's blistering hot and 100+ degrees, the indoor/outdoor area is surprisingly chilly. They blast the misters and fans, but they do it in a way where it's not dropping water all over. The space is beautiful. The food: there's hardly a complaint other than its high price, which is within Old Town Scottsdale standards. The order: baba ghanoush, pistachio labneh, marinated, artichoke hummus, lobster salad, papas bravado, chicken schnitzel, saffron risotto, linguine and clams, fillet of turbot, filet mignon skewers, and some oysters The filet mignon skewers along with the dip options were my favorite. The oysters are skippable as they still had pieces of shell on them. read more

My newest favorite restaurant is Pinyon! We came here this past weekend and we were so pleasantly impressed with all the food, service and ambiance of this place. The apps are all delicious in my opinion. The theme is Mediterranean food and appeals to the healthier side but this does not mean the flavor is compromised. My recommendation is try the pistachio lebneh which is a nice refreshing dip to share. The tuna tartare is light and delicious. I ordered the filet skewer and loved it but I tried my friend's dish which was the turbot with slaw and I would get this next time. There is no bad dish in my opinion. We finished off with the baklava cheesecake and felt this was very unique and definitely shareable. read more

Wow...there are many items on the menu that I would like to try! This is unusual for me but I am looking forward to come back to try different dishes. We walked in and were able to walk straight to sit at the bar. The seafood, oysters and scallops, are so fresh. I could not resist the Sunday brunch menu because it had beef kafta with eggs. I ordered a side of rice to enjoy with kafta and eggs. They went really well together since the kafta and its sauce were a bit salty. I was full but they have the best chocolate cake! I need the whole pound of the cake, not just a slice. read more

I've been wanting to try out Pinyon since it is part of the BnR family tree and it did not disappoint! My friend and I came here during Sunday brunch time, ordered a couple of cocktails (can't remember the name but it was blanco + grapefruit with a greek liquer) and some great bites. We started with the artichoke hummus which was really delicious. Great consistency, flavor and you get a good amount to share. We also ordered the yellowtail crudo which had a tremendous amount of flavor. It came with a pistachio drizzle and golden berries, plus fresh greens. For entrees we got the beef kafta with eggs. The beef was delicious and I even really enjoyed the salad it came with. It was dressed in a nice, acidic vinaigrette that cut the fatty taste of beef. read more

We absolutely loved our experience at Pinyon! This is a great spot for dinner with friends or date night, with an upscale Mediterranean feel. They have great indoor and outdoor seating (with misters for when it's hot hot hot out). Our table shared a couple of small plates and got some entrees, so with such a variety of food, I got a great feel for the quality of this restaurant. To start we tried the hummus with steak and hummus with roasted artichokes that came with fresh pita bread - the one with the filet and roasted garlic was my favorite. We also got a shrimp dish that was super garlicky and delicious. My friend and I also thought we couldn't leave without some oysters so we each enjoyed a Pacific and an Atlantic. I was so full after appetizers that for my main I had the tune tartare. This was super unique than any tune tartare I've had before, as it had peppers and some other things mixed inside. Our waitress was great and drinks were good! I would definitely come back. read more

Love this place and it's been only 2 times that I've gone! First time went through a reservation. This is definitely a must if you're planning to go on a weekend for dinner! Second time was on a whim on a Friday night. Of course. The wait was around an hour. You can order drinks while waiting, which almost everyone did since it was so hot outside! But there's patio seating as well as upstairs In addition to the main dining and bar. It's a nice set up. I requested a mocktail and received a really refreshing mocktail. Not sure what it was but I think it had some cucumber flavor. If you love Buck and Rider, you'll love this place too. I really enjoyed all of what I ate! Got my oysters to start. Always so fresh! And then got some lamb shakshuka: really flavorful and tender lamb meatballs. Got an ounce of Iberico ham that came with crunchy crostini and refreshing tomato. Loved the amount of crostinis but the ounce of ham was super slim - they're basically thinly shaved slices. Wish it was more. Nonetheless still tasty if you appreciate the real deal. Also tried the turbot fish - great piece of soft white fish, yummy! Gambas (shrimp) were delicious with the garlic profile. The Loup de Mer was my fave fish- another soft white fish. They cook it perfectly! They have kids menu available. Got the cheeseburger with potato wedges. A little well done for me with a burnt piece. Dessert: get the tiramisu to share! I loved it the first time that I had to get it again! Can't wait to go back! We loved our server which coincidentally got her the second time around. read more

Love Pinyon! I'm from LA and came here twice within a month because I could not stop thinking about their pistachio hummus dip. I believe some menu items change based on the season, but just double check with your server! Everything was amazing, from drinks to food to service. I recommend coming during happy hour (3PM-7PM) because the price for drinks, oysters, and hummus can't be beat. Also, this is the sister restaurant to Buck and Rider so you know it's quality seafood. read more

My girlfriend and I decided to try this spot out during Restaurant Week as we both had been wanting to try it since it first opened. First off, let me say that our serve, Becca, was super attentive to our every need, friendly and even gave us a great suggestion for an after dinner spot which turned out to be a great vibe.9 I ordered the shrimp Louie for my appetizer, the chicken skewers for my main entree and the vanilla ice cream that came with a delicious small cookie! My friend ordered the Greek salad with chicken and loved it. We also ordered a side of pita bread with a spicy olive dip. That dip was delicious. I enjoyed a glass of sangria and a glass of sparkling rose! The food tastes as amazing it looks on the dish. Everything was a flavor bomb in my mouth and absolutely delicious! I am so glad we had a chance to try this restaurant out and cannot wait to got back. read more

Went on a date to Pinyon and sat outside. It's nice because you get a little view of the inside and watch the sunset. The food was pretty good! Out of everything I tried, I'd recommend their hummus. Only get the tomato salad if you're REALLY ready for a mountain of tomatoes. It was a lot for one person. The pan roasted chicken was also delicious and filling. Would definitely come back! read more

A friend and I stopped by Pinyon for their incredible happy hour. They are a sister restaurant to Buck & Rider which was our main reason for visiting. We sat at the bar upstairs which had a great open atmosphere to enjoy the weather. The food was great. We had the hummus, carpaccio and fried feta. It was hard to pick a favorite because I loved them all equally and the portions were very generous for a happy hour. The only 1 star I have to dock is for the service. It wasn't the friendliest and we were never asked if we wanted another round of drinks. I still would return just for the food alone. read more

Great first impression at Pinyon! My boyfriend and I were in the area without dinner plans. Obviously we found ourselves on Yelp and saw positive reviews for Pinyon. So we decided to check them out. We went on a Thursday evening around 6pm and they were extremely busy. Definitely recommend a reservation for this one. We had about a 20 minute wait for first available seating - which was at the upstairs bar. The restaurant itself is super open and connected to the outdoors. The ground level has a large patio. The upstairs is completely open as well thanks to its sliding floor-to-ceiling doors. On a warm spring evening this resulted in immaculate vibes. Not sure what they do during the summer however - I imagine it would be too hot to have everything open. We took advantage of their Happy Hour kitchen specials, starting with the Chicken Schnitzel, Salmon Carpaccio, and Raw Bar Scallops. For entrees we got the Saffron Risotto and the Pan Roasted Chicken. Lastly, for dessert we shared the Baklava Cheesecake. All the food was excellent. It's very hard to choose a favorite bite, but if I had to pick - the Risotto and the Baklava Cheesecake would be my winners. Our server was friendly and explained the menu well. Really solid experience all around - would definitely return! read more

Wow! We came to Pinyon to celebrate my wife's 1st Mother's Day and this restaurant was amazing! It's a 2 story restaurant and we opted for the upstairs area (which we recommend if you want intimate vibes). This Coastal Mediterranean restaurant has the perfect hummus, chicken, and fish dishes you could ask for. Mixed cocktails are fantastic too, but perhaps the best part of this restaurant is the wonderful and friendly staff who are very helpful in picking out your entrees based off your preferences. Definitely need a reservation on a weekend night to come here because of how popular it is, but if you want to impress your date or friends then this is the place to do it! read more

When I come back to Scottsdale, I'm coming back to Pinyon for the hummus and house-made pita. Oh my word. That olive hummus is DREAMY! And I've had a lot of hummus!! We were able to snag some bar seats at the tail end of happy hour. We ordered the special espresso martinis (not sure I'd recommend), hummus with fresh pita, and some delicious cacio e Pepe with shrimp. But what really stole the show was how beautiful the restaurant is! I was mindblown at the size and how the servers seemed to keep up with so many different requests. I can't wait to visit again and try even more options. But that hummus will be ordered every.single.time. read more

Pinyon has quickly become one of my new favorite restaurants in the Valley! It's no surprise since their sister restaurant, Buck and Rider is my other favorite. I've visited Pinyon three times and am always looking for an excuse to go back. Girls night? I'm suggesting Pinyon. Family visiting? I'm taking them to Pinyon. Happy hour? Pinyon. The space is beautiful with an open air design. Pinyon features a lovely patio that overlooks the park at Old Town. There are two bars, one downstairs and one upstairs. The service has been excellent during all three visits. I've tried a variety of items such as different kinds of hummus, house-made pita, shrimp kebab, cacio e pepe with shrimp, seared feta and tomato, crudo, ribeye, and more. I have never had anything bad from Pinyon. Everything is flavorful and portions are decent. My favorite and is a must is the hummus and pita. I could happily make a meal out of that. The pita is pillowy soft and the hummus is so fresh. I think about both often and wish I lived closer to Pinyon! read more

Amazing food and fresh seafood and sister with the Buck and Rider restaurants and others. I was so excited to try this place. The look was so nice and bright with the yellow umbrellas outside and the open door concept to have a view of the outside but still sitting inside. I came here for a birthday celebration for a friend. I was greeted upon arrival by the friendly staff. At 11:30am the place was seated with a few tables. By 12-12:30 the restaurant was filled. Things ordered: -Cold Creek pacific oysters - fresh and a good starter -Iberico Jamon- which is a cured ham from the black Iberian pig. Similar to prosciutto but way better. We ordered 1oz but it looks more like 1/2 oz to us. There were 4 super thin slices and I think 1 oz should have been more like 6-8 slices. The portion of jamon to bread with tomato ratio didn't quite match but nonetheless it was delicious. -Gambas al Ajillo- this is garlic brown buttered oiishii shrimp with crusty bread. Oh so yummy especially with all the garlic. -Shakshuka- on the menu this said it has simmered tomatoes, poached eggs and pork chorizo for $22 but when we got it it was simmered tomatoes with what tasted like lamb meatballs. Really good but we were so confused as to why there was no egg and no taste of chorizo. We kept eating since it tasted good. Later when we got the bill it said lamb shakshuka for $29. This should have been explained by the chef, staff or server as this was blindly charged to us. We still loved the food but could have said something to us about it. - Filet of Turbot- this is a white fish dish with beet chermoula (which has different spices and beets for the sauce) and Lebanese slaw. Love a fish dish any day. - tiramisu - a large rectangle soaked with some alcohol that isn't fully baked in so it had a good strong taste. This was creamy and decadent and to be shared. Birthday friend received a box of vanilla macaroons. They were hard shelled they fell into pieces. Lovely gesture by Pinyon. All in all service was excellent and food was worth going again. Also the parking garage behind is perfect parking directly to the restaurant with a 3 hour limit. read more

We recently had lunch here with friends on a Sunday. The weather was beautiful so we enjoyed the patio. Reservations are highly recommended. The patio is a nice size and reminds me of Europe. The hummus was highly recommended with the fresh pita. I'm afraid they have ruined all other pita for me because omg it was SO good. Fluffy and warm with a slight sear. We really enjoyed the labneh and spiced olive hummus dips. We tried the arugula salad and the eggplant dish. Both were full of flavor and very unique. The eggplant is breaded/fried so a little on the heavier side but the portion is just right. Others in the group enjoyed cacio pepe and mushroom skewers. Our server was friendly and attentive and food came out pretty quickly. I definitely want to come back and try some of the more breakfast items! read more

I have to admit that I was not expecting to rave about this place because of how loud and busy it was at 7:30 pm on a Thursday. We were seated close to the door and the host desk which was crawling with people waiting to be seated and at first we thought this is going to be terrible. But we were WRONG! The crowds quickly dissipated and our lovely waitress turned things around very quickly with a welcoming smile and hospitable attitude. After the first 10 minutes our evening just kept getting better and better. The food was truly amazing. We shared the beef carpaccio, Ibérico Jamón, and one of the hummus flavors. All were spectacular. For dinner, the grilled turbot and the lobster ravioli were exquisite. I had the linguini with clams which was perfectly cooked and tasted incredible, and my wife really enjoyed the risotto. The grand finale was the baklava cheesecake which was out of this world. Although the restaurant was full with a wait list that went on past 9:00 pm, we never felt rushed, or hurried. The service was timed perfectly and the staff were super accommodating. A very nice touch was that the manger came by to wish my son a happy birthday and gave him a complementary box of special chocolates. read more

Pinyon was absolutely everything I want in a new Scottsdale restaurant. Actually good food in a space that also happens to be gorgeous. You would be surprised how many new restaurants miss the mark on the good food nowadays?? Anyways this has been on my list to try this place for a good minute and it did not disappoint! We came for book club with the farmers market happening right outside, which made the whole afternoon feel incredibly curated and charming. The vibe inside is elevated but not stuffy, the kind of place you'd want to linger and we definitely did! ‍ The drinks were excellent, but the star of the table was the tuna crudo. It had this perfect punch of heat and acidity. Spicy, bright, beautifully plated. Exactly the kind of dish that makes you stop mid-conversation and just appreciate it. Hummus was also incredible to share with the table!! 10/10, will absolutely be back. Pinyon was incredible and a new staple my Scottsdale list read more

Such a great Mediterranean concept! The space is beautiful with indoor, outdoor, and rooftop seating, which makes it a really fun spot whether you're stopping by for happy hour or a full dinner. The happy hour is phenomenal and the fact that they offer it on weekends (bar seating only) makes it even better. We tried several items from the happy hour menu including the oysters, shrimp, and one of the hummus dips, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. The cocktails and spritzes on happy hour are also fantastic and well-made. You can tell the kitchen uses high-quality ingredients across the menu. Definitely recommend checking this place out! read more

There were two of us and we shared the hummus, sweet potatoes and tuna. Everything was delicious!!

I visited Pinyon on Easter Sunday and it was fantastic! They're from the same creators as Buck & Riders and it definitely shows in the seafood quality and service. The food selections included a raw bar, hummus menu, and several shareables and entrees. My absolute favorite was the HUMMUS, especially the spiced olive and feta one. I honestly could've just eaten the pita and hummus for my whole meal. The pita bread is fresh and warm too. The gambas de ajillo were also yummy--I was soaking up the sauce with the bread even after finishing the shrimp. The entrees were all delicious as well. Definitely recommend ordering a couple different things to share so you can try everything. The ambiance was also perfect with lots of open air and sunlight. Most noteworthy was our server Palina who was EXCELLENT--she really made the experience so much more enjoyable with her humor and attentiveness. read more

What an absolutely lovely Mediterranean restaurant! This spot was recommended to me by many locals. The restaurant is half indoor and half outdoor. I chose to sit outdoors next to the fountain, partially covered by the shade of the umbrella. The day was sunny and gorgeous. The decor is absolutely stunning. Initially, when I sat down, a server didn't come to greet me for over 10 minutes. However, after that, everything was smooth. I ordered the organic chicken chicken skewers with a side of Brussels sprouts and tzatziki. The portions are very large so be mindful of this when you're ordering. The food tasted incredible and fresh. The chicken was melt in your mouth amazing and cooked to absolute perfection. 10/10. I would definitely come back to try some other items on the menu! read more

Overall we enjoyed Pinyon! We made a reservation but HH works only at the bar which is pretty limited on the first floor. We luckily snagged a spot. We ordered some food on the HH menu. We were going to order three hummuses but our server recommended we swap one out for the schnitzel. We tried the schnitzel and it was a glorified chicken tender...and the breading was moreso like katsu it felt like. The best thing on that plate was the salad. The hummuses were amazing and the star of the show. I also liked the ceviche. The feta block however was drenched in honey and we all agreed was wayyy too sweet. We talked to our server and if we come back we can hopefully request to take it off. It came out to $200 total. I'd come back for HH but maybe not dinner with the price point! read more
