Fun spot. It's not the closest restaurant to me, but that's what makes it great. Lovely desert scenery that pairs nicely with the wine. My friend and I shared the red sangria and we enjoyed it. For our snack, we did the jalapeno corn queso and it was delicious. I think I want all my queso to have corn in it now.
I am here with 4 ladies on a spa getaway. We decided to leave the property for happy hour. We had the most incredible visit. Our server Destiny is truly a highlight of our trip. She was kind, generous and just so fun to be around. The food was also great. The portions are large so we had leftover to take back to the spa with us for lite bites by the pool. This is a must stop by if you're in the area. If Destiny is working you will certainly have a wonderful visit. Enjoy!
Ravens View is an absolute gem. The desert views are stunning and the patio is the perfect place to relax and take it all in. The atmosphere is laid-back yet elevated, making it an ideal spot to unwind. We shared the tomato and burrata stack, which was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The chicken club was also delicious and very satisfying. We also did a white wine flight, and every pour was super tasty and well-curated. Our server was attentive and did a good job making sure we had what we needed, though the interaction felt a bit reserved and not especially warm. That said, the food, wine, and views more than made up for it. We'd definitely come back to enjoy the patio and scenery again.
What a cute space with some amazing views! This space is quite small and intimate so I would highly suggest making a reservation. We didn't realize that they offer happy hour everyday 3pm-6pm and took advantage of that! We went on a Saturday around 4:30 and dined on the outdoor patio. Our server, Caris, was attentive and amazing. She recommended the bottle and board special which was beautifully served and included house wine or sangria, we opted for the blushing sangria which was tasty! I also enjoyed the Desert Daze which was delicious. It tasted like juice lol. We finished it off with a lemon merengue pie. Anyhoo, we can't wait to come back to this place for the fall to enjoy the outdoors by a fire pit and watch the sunset!
The food was absolutely delicious! Cameron was our server, was very friendly and helpful with choosing wine and food. Happy hour prices were great and the portions were reasonably sized. The wine bar is was very modern and clean. The view of the desert was lovely! Really wish they had a location closer to us but we will absolutely travel here and try the sister establishments. Thank you!
Great date night spot, so come for the sunset and mountain backdrop, and definitely make sure to sit outside. They have warmers and blankets to keep you toasty on cool nights. The menu is limited, but the food was tasty. The French onion soup appears to be a popular item. Service was friendly and prompt.
I was in town visiting a friend for the weekend and she recommended Ravens View for their awesome happy hour. We went around 4:30 pm and there were plenty of tables available. The menu wasn't super large but prices were great. We shared a meat & cheese plate, stuffed mushrooms and some sangria. It was all delicious and a great way to start our night. They also have an incredible view too.
We had a fantastic time at Ravens View. I wish we would have eaten in the patio though. The inside was fine but obviously we didn't get the views. Which in the high desert in the evening would have been beautiful. The food was pretty good. I don't think we had anything that was to die for but we really enjoyed our meal. We had the queso to start and it was delicious but we both wished it was a little spicier, hubby had the Panino and enjoyed it and I enjoyed the beefcake burratta salad (capresé salad) it was fresh a delicious although I would have liked it with a little more balsamic. Our server was very sweet and quick to respond. Overall it was a great date night and I've already mentioned it to my mom that her and her golf group would enjoy it as well after a round. They also had live music on the patio the night we went. I recommend checking it out.
This place is a bit of drive but it does have magnificent views of gulf course and mountains. There is plenty of parking and the patio is pet friendly. The menu is very limited and the food did come out later than anticipated. The staff are quite friendly and the overall atmosphere is nice. They do not serve hard liquor but have an extensive list of wines and beer.
This small cosy restaurant is most definitely a hidden gem!!!!!! Nestled in the mountains of Old Cave Creek, near fabulous hiking trails and magnificent views of the Tonto National Forest, this place cannot be missed!!! Happy Hour, a full menu and great drinks, there is so much to choose from!!! Whether you order soups, salads, sandwiches or boards, and so much more, my go-to favorite is ALWAYS the CUBANO!!! The best!!! The service is always great and you can sit inside or out on the patio. Definitely choose outside, with headlamps and blankets if needed, you do not want to miss the beautiful mountain views!!!!!
What a cool place to happen upon. Derek Y. and myself had just finished a hike to Camp Creek Falls nearby. We were leaving the cave creek area and drove by what looked like a well lit home in the middle of the desert. Turns out it was Raven's View wine bar. Just from the look of it from the road I was pumped to check it out. It's a small place that is comfortable and well decorated. They have wine, beer, and cocktails on the menu. They also have food. We already had dinner plans so we decided to try an appetizer, we had the tuna tartar. It was good, a little too much of the sauce made it overly salty, however the fish tasted fresh. The bartender was friendly and service was quick. It seems like a regular place for people in the cave creek area, as the bartender knew many of the people there. Very nice ambiance and wine selection. I did notice they don't have any local wines from AZ, many of them are coming from Napa and surrounding wine areas. However, I love California wine so that was fine by me. Great wine choices. I had a nice Pinot Noir from a winery in the Russian River area. That area has excellent wineries and breweries. Overall, nice time and I'll definitely go back next time I'm out that way.

Destinie was an absolute WONDERFUL server! So sweet and personable. The food and vibes were wonderful as well. Definitely a go-to spot for the family! Will say the red sangria was favored over the white for the table! :) read more

One of my favorite spots in Arizona! The views are spectacular, the food is fresh, beautifully presented and a great value, and I love the friendly staff. A big bonus is the live music they often have - Krystal Waters is so talented, and made our evening even more special. Reservations are recommended so you can get a table with a view, and happy hour is a great value with lots of options! read more

Had a nice experience! Met a friend there for lunch and she was running quite late, but staff was really nice and accommodating. We sat outside on the patio which is really pleasant. I ordered white bean hummus while I was waiting, and it was delicious. But be aware that it has a lot of oil on it (the hummus forms a volcano and it is filled with oil!) If I had known I would have told them to hold the oil. My friend had the pulled pork sandwich, and I had the stacked burrata and tomato salad, which is similar to a caprese. read more

Love this place! Beautiful view, nice ambience, indoor/outdoor seating and pup friendly. Lots of drinks and delicious food to choose from. Daily happy hour is the cherry on top! read more
I was recommended this place when visiting Scottsdale, and I'm so glad we found it! The view here is spectacular being up in the mountains - we even saw some coyotes when we visited. I came here twice during my time in AZ, once for lunch and once for dinner. Both times this place was packed! I'd recommend a reservation - and be sure to indicate where in the restaurant you want to be seated. A note that it can get loud in here, but understandable since it's such a small space. When we came around lunch time we lucked out being able to snag an edge booth. The garage doors were open so we got some nice open air and bright views. We stuck to just ordering drinks since we had come from lunch - I got the Lucky rock SV, which was recommended by our waitress when I asked for a sweeter white. I loved it! It wasn't overly sweet, but definitely wan't dry and bitter so I loved it. My boyfriend ordered the red house sangria and thought it was delicious - we even tried to see if we could bring a bottle back with us, but they don't sell it outside of just glasses. I came back the next night with my boyfriend's mom and grandma for a little GNO, and I loved the cozy night vibe. It was raining, so the garage doors were pulled down. We came just in time for HH, so we ordered the bottle & board special ($28 for a bottle of wine and charcuterie board), queso and margharita flatbread - all was great! The bottle and board special is great for any night out. The queso was creamy and rich, and I loved that it also came with carrot sticks. The margharita flatbread was nothing special, but it was still delicious. Overall, one of my new favorite spots in north Scottsdale! read more
Do you remember those old movies of nomads crossing a desert when they come upon a mirage, an oasis in the midst of dune after dune? Well if those dunes were golf courses you'd come upon the oasis that is the Ravens View. What a gem this place is. Located on the last stop before the Tonto Forest, the atmosphere of the Ravens View is so welcoming. The food they serve is yummy yummy, and the service is five star! To top off the perfect night they have live music that filled my heart. Tonight playing was Kevin Causey, an extraordinary musician who personalized his performance by responding to requests. Ohhhhh how I love you Ravens View. Did I mention I highly recommend? read more

A friend brought me here after our amazing hike at Tom's Thumb. What a great way to end the day. It's a small intimate casual place with great service, delicious beer and wine and amazing apps/ food! We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful view and scenery. Just puts you in a zen calm state of mind. The food was spectacular! We tried almost all the apps and they were all delicious. I loved it here. This will be a place where I come to often and bring all my friends who have not been. read more

A quant little wine bar nestled in the hills of Cave Creek. I came to Raven's View to have dinner with friends. I was a little late due to a prior commitment but nonetheless I was excited to see what the menu had to offer. I ordered the beefsteak tomato & burrata stack with prosciutto and the crab cakes, both were divine. The crab cakes had the perfect amount of crab, bread crumbs and lemon. My tummy was very happy. I ordered a bottle of the Jordan cab from Sonoma (I'm a Cali girl) everything was nice, except I made a mistake on the wine, it was delicious but I thought it was a different price (it's probably time for me to explore the idea that I need glasses lol) Anywho everything was lovely. I thought the service was ok, nothing spectacular. However, my friend told me that they got there about 15 mins before happy hour was ordered. They tried to order but the waitress was dismissive and didn't offer the menu as if it were too late. She only raddled off a few things, they asked for the menu anyway and ordered. I am not sure what that was about. She seemed ok when she served me. But, I have lived long enough to know that some things will never change, at least in this crooked system. I will still to back. It was that good. I rarely give 5 stars I was definitely going to give this place 5 stars, until I heard what my friends experienced. All humans should be treated the same. All money is green and it spends the same. No matter whose pocket it comes out of, that is all... read more
The food was deliciously amazing and the ambiance and scenery was to die for! Had great food over a bottle of wine and didn't want to leave so we grabbed a table outside so we could enjoy the scenery and live music. This is a treasured find and grateful our friend lives in the area and recommended this place! read more
