I have been to Proof twice and really enjoyed the experience. The service was great. I went with multiple friends and we all shared a variety of dishes. I've tried the mozz bites , artichoke dip, meatballs, Caesar salad, caprese salad, and the Alfredo. I thought the pasta was good, not the best but I would definitely return. The appetizers were honestly the best part and they do have great happy hour deals that are definitely a huge draw. Their $7 spritzes are also absolutely delicious. read more

Proof - American Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Coming here for the first time, valeting the car, and walking down the dark outside corridor to find Proof reminded me of the Amangiri in Utah where all the lights are kept low at night to allow for enjoyment of the night sky. The restaurant itself has a unique route 66 feel to it and the menu is something you are not going to find anywhere else -- at least not at the same time. All unique items for the most part but at the same time comfort food that is familiar in enough ways to make you want to try everything. There were no disappointments sharing the Pretzel Knots, Fried Green Tomatoes, and Spinach Artichoke Dip. For the main course the Beef Short Ribs were a winner for me. Having stayed several times right next door at The Rocks I am surprised it took me so long to find this little gem right next door. read more

Although a chilly evening, patio dining was perfectly comfortable with electric heaters strategically placed in the ceiling above. Oversized scarves/wraps were available if necessary. Love that extra touch! Appetizers: Fried Green Tomatoes w/ Crab Remoulade and BBQ Rib Bites. The tomatoes were heirloom which I think stood up well to the cornmeal and frying. The flavors were great, but I think the portion size was a little on the skimpy side. Definitely wasn't large enough to share alone. The rib bites were served in a small cast iron skillet. These babies were fall-off-the-bone tender and very flavorful. I had to hold back to save room for dinner! Dinner: I ordered the Chicken And Waffles w/ Bacon Brittle, Peach Bourbon Syrup, Cayenne Maple Butter. Let me just say...I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur when it comes to chicken and waffles...and Chef Jesse got it right on the money!! If you prefer BONELESS fried chicken on a BELGIAN waffle...go elsewhere for the Gringo version. But if you want an AUTHENTIC Southern preparation and flavors with an updated twist, this is the place! The chicken had a substantial, crispy batter and the meat was juicy and tender on the inside. It was served on top of a large, thin & tender waffle. But what made this dish extra special (can I underline extra special?) was the bacon brittle garnish and the cayenne maple butter. The cayenne butter replaced the hot sauce that I would have normally requested. It was buttery, spicy and perfectly balanced to the sweet bourbon syrup. And since I was going all out- I ordered the ham hock southern greens on the side. They were smokey, tender and very flavorful. I would have preferred a TAD bit of pot liquor though. "Pot liquor" is the seasoned liquid left after boiling greens. Otherwise, I was impressed Chef Jesse! Very impressed! My colleague ordered the Blackened Salmon with Mixed Greens and Crispy Grit Croutons. In case you don't know what grits are, its just hominy. Sister to polenta. How cool of the Chef to make croutons out of it. Wow! I didn't try this dish personally, but let's just say he practically licked the plate. Wine: Try the 2009 Iconoclast Cabernet. Great value by the bottle and incredibly smooth. Desert: Spiked Root Beer Float. To my surprise, it was served with big nut-less brownie bites on top. Took me back to being a kid! I thought the atmosphere was warm and inviting...buzzing even. It was family and group friendly. The server's uniforms were attractive and the service was very friendly. Enjoy! read more

Nothing quite like a good Mother's Day brunch - and this place is Proof (ha ha ha). Proof is a great breakfast spot at the Four Seasons Resort in Scottsdale. While it is somewhat distant to the valley at large, I enjoyed its charm and the fantastic service we received here. We were seated immediately upon arrival, surprising given that we were arriving at 11am, which I thought was catastrophically late for a Mother's Day brunch layout. They had an a la carte menu filled with various standard breakfast options. I debated ordering a simple omelet from here, but after taking a look at the great buffet spread they had laid out, I was quickly won over and signed up for that instead. Proof had a fantastic selection of fruits, croissants, meats, seafood, and all manner of typical breakfast accompaniments you've grown to know and love. And of course, they also had an omelet station, which I quickly took advantage of. The highlight was probably the S'mores waffles, which were deliciously sweet. Our waiter was excellent, constantly checking up with us, filling water, and clearing plates (I made several trips to the buffet so this was definitely necessary). Two (very minor) complaints. The omelet station was completely swamped with orders. They let us fill out paper forms with what we wanted that we could leave with the chef, who then had the omelet delivered to us later. However, there was only one person working the counter, and he was struggling to keep up. It probably took about a half hour to finally get my omelet, but I can't complain too much since the rest of the amazing food kept me occupied in the meanwhile. Secondly, it's the Four Seasons Resort, and they only have valet parking - something I really dislike at any location. However, it just comes with the territory at a place like this, and this restaurant is probably worth it in the end. I highly recommend Proof, and I'd be interested in stopping by at a different time of the day, perhaps for Happy Hour, which was advertised as having free candied bacon! Great food, great atmosphere, great time! read more

Best Huevos Rancheros anywhere! Lunch is really good but dinner can be hit and miss. Overall, I recommend this restaurant.

Excellent breakfast spot and ambiance.....definitely pricy (hence the surroundings) the service was very good and efficient. My partner did the build your own omelet, I thought it tasted average but he enjoyed it. Fresh fruit on the side and we split a short stack which was extremely light and fluffy. I split the green chile pork Benedict with a friend which was a fantastic portion, flavorful pieces of pork, perfectly cooked eggs and peppers that gave it a nice zing. My mother got the half grapefruit torched and yogurt. She enjoyed it kind of hard to mess up. Our other friend had the salmon and avocado bagel which sounded boring BUT it actually had a hard boiled egg, cream cheese spread, avocado and onion on an everything bagel which gave it a nice compliment to a boring plain bagel ( I am ordering that next time) great breakfast/brunch spot, your tastebuds will thank you but your wallet probably won't (oh well) read more

How the mighty Four Seasons Troon has fallen as we have stayed here and ate here for the past 20+ years. Proof used to have delicious wonderful but pricey food. A recent visit on March 6 at Proof for breakfast I was dismayed that the buffet brunch is no longer served, another pandemic casualty. We stayed for breakfast - I ordered the fried chicken in a biscuit ($25) but to get an egg that was another $5 and the orange juice was only $10. Two of my family ordered the short rib skillet also very pricey but the meat had little flavor and actually contained little meat as it was mostly fat - I surmise that the chef lacked a knife to trim off the fat. I have eaten at the Four Seasons in NYC, Beverly Hills, Westlake, Maui, Jackson Hole, Vancouver, Washington D.C., San Francisco, Palo Alto, Whistler, Nassau Bahamas, Boston, Chicago and Dallas, but Troon has to shape up to join in that level of fine food. read more

I enjoyed the pretzel knots and cheesy dip. I also enjoyed the 1/2 rack of ribs-though it wasn't served hot. It was sent back to be redone and re-served properly. However by that time my two dinner guests had already finished their meals over that time. My meal was properly comped. We had a delightful server, Autumn. Nice relaxing atmosphere. I would definitely return. read more

Amazing food and atmosphere. My family loves when we go here for any meal. And the four seasons walk after is pretty special. Always a hit.

We had a WONDERFUL time at Proof. We brought a visitor there with us and the meals we all had were, as usual, perfect but what stood out for all of us on this visit was the service! The Proof Team, led by manager Brian, saw to every need professionally and with kindness and generosity. Would recommend this place to anyone for any occasion read more

Made an early reservation at Proof for a birthday dinner for my mother in law. We had a perfect seat overlooking the beautifully landscaped Four Seasons & mountainous views all around. Actually, any seat outside is spectacular, you can't go wrong! We recently moved to Cave Creek from the North East (Connecticut). I ordered the pomegranate glazed salmon. I usually take pictures of my food but instead wanted to enjoy the company and the scenery of the evening. Perfect food choices from the Deviled Eggs, Salmon entree right down to the dessert. Make sure you save room for their homemade pies and ice cream. I enjoyed the S'mores sundae with graham crackers! Yum Yum! Lovely evening from the attentive service right down to the food! Unbeatable value for the price as well as the breathtaking Sonoran desert views. Will definitely be back! read more

Went here on resort with my friends for dinner our first night here in Arizona and could not have had a better experience. Our waiter really made our night with his high energy and hospitality. We went with the appetizers starting with their famous pretzel buns and lollipop wings. Both we fabulous. Although do be careful, the pretzel buns are very addicting. When it came to order our entrees we went with all forms of sandwiches. I went with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich and my other friends went with the Babe on a Bun and the burger which name is slipping my mind. We decided to go "splitsies" which we split our entree to get a flavor of both worlds. I was able to try both the Babe on a Bun and the crispy chicken sandwich. Both were very solid meals. Only thing we both agreed when enjoying our meals was the sauce on the chicken and marinade on the beef was very sour and acidic. It was not foul but the flavor was very strong and carried over a lot of other elements in the dish. Overall though great dishes to order. We wanted to go big and end the night with dessert. Once I saw the Caramel S'more Chocolate Cake I was sold. I split it with my other friend and we were in bliss. The cake was moist and flavorful and the marshmallow on the top had a wonderful texture combo with the soft cake and gooey peak. They stick Graham crackers on the sides and I made a s'more with the cake. Definitely recommend. We also ordered the cookie trio they had and they tasted splendid. Can really taste the genuine form scratch flavor in each bite. Overall if you want to have a nice time on the resort here at 4 Seasons don't sleep on the in house restaurants. Just be sure to have some deep pockets. read more

A really lovely casual restaurant at the Four Seasons. The food is always good, the service dependable and awesome, decor and vibe very Arizona and lovely. There are great views if you can sit outside in good weather, there is also a covered patio as well as beautiful dining inside. Love the vibe and decor of the restaurant and it is very family friendly. You won't be disappointed dining here I am sure, and just being on the property is fun. It is a great stop for locals as well as visitors. read more

The decor is absolutely darling. The barbecue is the best in Scottsdale and there's also help healthy options for vegan and gluten-free.

My favorite restaurant in Scottsdale! Great for breakfast or dinner. The service, desert views, outdoor patio & tabletop shuffleboard are the bomb. For breakfast, you can choose the tempting buffet with omelet station or order from the menu. Kids can get pancakes with M&Ms, blueberries or chocolate chips. The huevos rancheros are spicy and fab. Steak & eggs is delicious too. My daughter's waffle was light and fluffy - so good! For dinner, start with their buttery pretzel bites with cheese sauce. Their steak was one of the best I've ever eaten - cooked to perfection with morels and cippolini mushrooms. My son declared the kids' hamburger the best of his life and ordered it two nights in a row. Save room for dessert, for sure! The chocolate hazelnut pie with brûlée banana was salty & sweet & chocolatey perfection. My son flipped for his Cereal Shake. All ice creams are rich & made from scratch, as are their chocolate, caramel and strawberry sauces. read more

I was in Scottsdale last week and Proof was by far the best meal we had all week. The 'smoked babe on a bun' pulled pork sandwich had great flavor and was so delicious. For the summer they even have a wine down Wednesday special that allowed us to enjoy a nice bottle of wine for only $40! The real star of their menu though is the dessert. We enjoyed both the french toast cheesecake and salted caramel chocolate cake, and you will not find anything like it anywhere else! In addition, our server Giovanni was the most genuine, engaging server I think I've ever come across. He was able to describe any item we inquired about in great detail, and you could tell he has a great passion for his job. Aside from that, he just has a great personality all around! If you dine at Proof, definitely request Giovanni as your server. We look forward to going back next time we're in Scottsdale! read more

I'm unclear as to where all the four and five stars come from here, and my guess is that they are resort guests. When you are on vacation, you feel differently about things. You'll be OK with getting gouged because you're in a holiday or vacation spirit. I understand that, so let me add a review that is purely from the local community. I like the atmosphere there. The environment is nice and its a pleasant stroll through some nice landscaping to get to Proof. But let's face it. Once you are sitting at a table or out on a patio, it's just like any other restaurant and deserves to be rated against others in the same category. Would you be asked to add a few pieces of chicken to your lettuce salad for $12.00 at other restaurants? (That's not the price of the salad, that's the ADD ON price for some protein). Are you kidding me?? You'd be laughed out of the restaurant business. Would you be able to get away with a regular (nothing special) burger, no sides, for $26.00? No way. Our meal tasted fine. The service was OK, no complaints. But what we have here, at Proof, is pure price gouging. Someone has decided to buy into the "massive inflation" label our economy is getting right now. Yes -- the $600K house down the street just sold for $1.2 million. But does that REALLY translate to burgers for close to $30 and beers at $11 and $12? C'mon, let's get realistic. The Four Seasons has decided to shaft you for all they can get, and you're eating it up. read more

Let me start off by saying that my wife and I had our wedding reception here in February 2008 and our planer was Ms. Regan and it was flawless!!!!! Just what you or anybody would expect of a "Four Seasons" Now moving to yesterday (Sunday the 29th November 2020) Oh how things have changed for the WORST!!!!! The check in was fantastic! Then it was off to Proof for dinner for 4 and one of the 4 was my 96 yr old after-in-law, so we decided to eat outside to watch the sunset at 17:30 and our server and his helper started us off with ice tea and water. Then we ordered an appetizer which was very good. Then about 45 mins. later we ordered our dinner. We had NO idea it was going to take an hour and 37 minutes for our dinner to get to us!!!!! The server kept telling us it was they got hit hard? Then He said it was the Chyna-Flu? As this was going on........I had asked our server if we could have one of their portable heaters moved over to our table? He then said that he would have to ask his manager??? What???? Then we had asked our server what did his manage say? He said he forgot to ask???? Then 20 mins later we asked him again. And then another 20 mins later!!! So we had asked 4 TIMES TOTAL!!!!! And it never came!!!! Keep in mind! The portable heater was only 21 feet from our table!!! Then after all this and over an hour and 30 mins after we had ordered! I got up to go see if they(The Four Seasons) could bring my father in law some fruit or bread or rolls to nibble on since it was taking so long to get our food. And at that time, our order finally came out! YES a full hour and 37 mins before we finally got to eat!!!! Out of all the Four Seasons we have been to all over, this was the worst service my wife and I have EVER HAD AT ANY PLACE WE HAVE STAYED!!!! INCLUDING ANY AND ALL OTHER HOTELS AND RESORTS WE HAVE STAYED AT!!!!!!!! In closing, some one is definitely sleeping at the switch!!!! This is a direct reflection of the management team! All the excuses and not an once of willingness to make things right! My wife has a business with 39 employees and she too has been hit hard! But she works harder than before because of this year with out excuses and with out punishing her clients. I know that they got hit with more than what they expected. but then you adapt and work a bit harder and smarter. We are here till Sunday and I told my wife it's going to be DoorDash and or me going to get our food here. read more

Food is well done but not commensurate with the price charged. If the dishes were all $5-10 less I would eat here 5 times a week. They may want to consider a locals discount card like other resorts do. read more

We used to love having brunch on Sundays after our early hikes at Proof. Unfortunately, for the past two times, we have been turned away (not in the nicest way) even when the restaurant had a lot of availability. According to the Four Seasons, locals aren't accepted it over there anymore unless you get a room. How discriminating is that? Isn't Four Seasons supposed to be recognized for it's "great" customer service? Well, extremely poor customer service we would say. read more

The most amazing hole in wall find! Comfortable indoors and out! Good is plentiful and reasonable. Please never sell out or change!

Recently discovered this place when we dropped in for lunch. It's tucked away in the middle of the Four Seasons Resort and has indoor/outdoor seating options. In the bar area, there's a full size shuffleboard game....I haven't seen one of those in years. Since the weather was awesome, we decided to sit outside. Once we settled into our seats, we ordered: Pretzel Knots, $5 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/proof-scottsdale?select=tEOMXcR_1x4capEjfg95GQ#tEOMXcR_1x4capEjfg95GQ Spinach Artichoke Dip, $12 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/proof-scottsdale?select=cHgbvJk7pe385t5t3tmQeg#cHgbvJk7pe385t5t3tmQeg Potato Bacon Chowder http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/proof-scottsdale?select=k2VePOrtCCwCYr7nhoIWuA#k2VePOrtCCwCYr7nhoIWuA Rueben, $19 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/proof-scottsdale?select=0nhrBqQLKZFsJybz5vDfUw#0nhrBqQLKZFsJybz5vDfUw http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/proof-scottsdale?select=6VHXCBHgODNkyqgAlACGWw#6VHXCBHgODNkyqgAlACGWw The Pretzel Knots and Spinach Artichoke Dip arrived first. The Pretzel Knots are amazing! They came out warm and fresh and have a nice Queso Dip to compliment it. The Spinach Artichoke Dip was bland...disappointing. The hard, cruton-like sticks that came with the Dip were very salty...perhaps that's why it tasted so bland to me? The Potato Bacon Chowder was outstanding.....rich and creamy, it hit the spot. For the grand finale, the Rueben came out....and boy was it good! My colleague ordered the same thing, except he got Onion Rings and I got Fries as a side dish. The Onion Rings are thick and juicy....and sweet, very good. The Fries were very good too. Service here was outstanding....what you'd expect for a 5 Diamond resort. Return Factor - 91% read more

My boyfriend came home from a trip and said he saw this restaurant Proof in the US Air magazine that we had to go try. I was a little skeptical because I don't usually think of airplane magazines as having good recommendations, although I do want to buy a large portion of the SkyMall catalog. Anywho, after seeing the menu, I couldn't wait to go. I'm so glad he read that article! It's at the Four Seasons in Northeast Scottsdale. Definitely park at the valet in front of the lobby. It's complimentary and puts you pretty close to the restaurant. When we walked into the restaurant, I immediately loved the atmosphere. It's a rustic cabin meets modern style. There are comfy couches to sit around and lounge in, a long bar, and most importantly shuffleboard! I love shuffleboard! We had reservations since it was Saturday night, but it wasn't too busy and we probably didn't need them. We opted to sit on the patio, which has a great view of the mountains. Unfortunately, it was night and we couldn't see much, but I bet this would be a perfect place to watch the sunset. Our waitress came over pretty quickly and explained the menu/concept. The chef was inspired by his US travels, so there is something on the menu from every state whether it's food or drink. The drink menu is over 16 pages, but I was boring and settled on a Fat Tire Imperial IPA which was delicious. My boyfriend got the draft root beer, and even though I'm not a soda fan, I definitely stole a few (several) sips. We started with the duck fries- french fries, shredded duck, gravy, and AZ cheese curds. It was every bit as amazing and decadent as it sounds. By that point, I was already getting pretty full, but it didn't stop me from ordering the chicken & waffles. It comes with a spicy syrup and peanut brittle. The flavors all work really well together, and I almost finished the whole thing because I didn't want to stop eating it! My boyfriend got their burger which is confidently called "We Have the Best Burger." I don't know if it's the best, but it was damn good. Vermont cheddar, smoked ketchup mayo, bourbon molasses onions, and deep fried bacon. DEEP FRIED!! It was gluttonous and oh so tasty. Needless to say, we were way too full for dessert, but I definitely plan on trying some for future visits! read more

The service here is 5 stars, but wow I was dissatisfied with the food. Ate here a couple times while here for work and the only thing they nailed are their fries and pretzel bites. Cesar with shrimp: barely any dressing, shrimp over cooked and not properly deveined. Peppered feta appetizer: how does feta have no flavor? It's naturally salty and it tasted like nothing. Charred broccoli: meh, fine. Short rib skillet: also meh, again with the amount of ingredients I was left wondering where the flavor went. Chicken and biscuit: literally a rock for a biscuit. Ended up just eating the chicken - it also came with the saddest looking fruit. I wouldn't normally leave a review as the food is mediocre, but it's a Four Seasons and the prices match that, so I should be getting stellar food for a $26 breakfast. They need to revamp their kitchen. read more
