    For a minute, I thought I got transported to Palm Springs! I finally "woke up" from my dream when I drove to Scottsdale Fashion Square after within 10 minutes lol! The service was about 2 minutes too slow, but I looked back at the experience and wondered if I was just used to being rushed out because other breakfast restaurants always want to seat one more round of guests before closing. I couldn't resist and ordered a honey lavender matcha. Thank goodness it didn't taste like soap. The egg white scramble is more filling than expected in a good way. My husband's breakfast sandwich was loaded with crispy bacon and it elevated the sandwich to the next level! The roasted potatoes were very well seasoned too! I must also mention that both the red and green hot sauces are amazing. I like the green one more, but I know it's debatable. Arizona doesn't deserve this place. I might have just found the perfect menu for my birthday brunch in the fall! I'll be back very soon!

    This place is a delight and a bew favorite for brunch. Fast and friendly service. I had brunch with my sister and we were seated right away. Our drink and food orders were taken shortly after. The menu has a lot of great options and I chose the Beef Po'boy. This was really good. Only needed a little salt and the bread was thicker than I expected. The poem portion was plenty though. I shared a pancake with my sister and loved the maple butter syrup. It was so good. The pancake was fluffy and just the right thickness. Our server Summer was amazing. I love that you can make reservations because this place got busy and we had gotten there at 8am. So be sure to make your reservation ahead of time.

    Everything was absolutely amazing. The service, the food, the ambiance, even the restrooms are cute. Drink: espresso martini was the best I've had very tasty. Food: I had the chicken club it was good but next time getting breakfast. Everyone ordered something different and everyone agreed their food was fantastic.

    What a great find! I love the retro vibe with a modern touch! When we arrived, we were surprised how busy it was for a late Wednesday morning but after our experience we can see why. We were greeted by the hostess team who were all smiles and friendly but Madalyn in particular stood out. There would be a 15 minute wait so Madalyn suggested we wait at the tables in the take out/side area. We ordered bloody Mary's while we waited for our table. The bloody Mary's were very tasty and themix is spot on. Madalyn even delivered our drinks from the take out register. Perfect! When our table became available, we walked through the restaurant and noticed a nice indoor-outdoor seating option which was wonderful it is so nice outside in the mornings right now. We were sat in Kaylee's section and she quickly brought us water and another breakfast cocktail. Kaylee was very friendly and attentive and went through the favorite menu items. The Eleanor has a nice diverse menu but we were all craving Egg Benedict's. We ordered both the Eleanor Benedict and the Egg's Blackstone. Both were delicious. The poached eggs cooked perfectly, the hollandaise sauce light and creamy and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The potatoes stayed crispy throughout the meal. We really enjoyed our experience at The Eleanor and will definitely be back.

    Came here for my daughters bachelorette brunch and we all were so happy we did! It was incredible! We sat outside and our servers were amazing, food was incredible, all of our coffee drinks were perfect! The manager gave us a bottle of champagne to congratulate the bride! We could not have been more happy with our entire experience! HIGHLY recommend!!

    Excellent atmosphere and delicious food! My friend and I met here for breakfast and it was amazing! Very cute place and excellent customer service. We each had the omelette and it was delicious. I really enjoyed my raspberry Matcha. I also got a classic pancake side and the maple butter was incredible! I would definitely go back. It is a fun place to meet for brunch.

    THE ELEANOR @ SCOTTSDALE The bar service was great and the food was good, my family was saying how aesthetic it was the entire time. I would say it was a little pricier but it is a great place for Sunday brunch! Overall 5/5

    First morning in Scottsdale and found The Eleanor. Loved the mid century vibe with its teal, gold and wood tones through most the restaurant. The menu is what caught my attention initially. Their unique takes on classic offerings were something I wanted to try. I had the breakfast hash. Delicious short rib, paired with fingerling potatoes, wilted arugula and brussel sprouts. This dish had a bit too much moisture which killed the potatoes texture. Otherwise the flavors melded together perfectly. The rest of table enjoyed the steak burrito which they raved about. The side of fresh berries was the icing on the cake.

    Solid breakfast choice in the Scottsdale area! We were greeted and sat quickly even though it was pretty full even on a Friday morning. I can imagine a wait time on the weekend because the decor, service and food are all on point. Brightly colored inside and out, mid century modern full of teals, creams and natural woods, the Eleanor is a lovely and relaxing vibe. The menu has something for everyone, from sweet to savory and vegan options as well. I chose the steak and egg burrito. It was much bigger than I was anticipating, easily two meals for me, but full of flavor with tender steak and eggs in each bite. An absolutely delicious breakfast paired with a bowl of my favorite berries- so much better than the average grape and melon fruit bowl. I also appreciated the cup of coffee to go at the end our meal to ensue I had my fill of caffeine for the day. The Eleanor did not disappoint and I'd happily return here again!

    This place is so cute! It's a blend of an old retro diner but mostly a modern feel. It feels light and open and bustling. We came here for my friend's bachelorette and were able to reserve a table for 7/8. Food was great! If I'm being picky, I would have loved smaller and crispier potatoes but the Eleanor Benedict was fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised at the first bite. Wow! My muffin was crispy, the eggs felt fresh, and the ham was thin and tasty. I don't think I could have had a better eggs Benedict! The service was great. Would love to come back here if I'm in the area!

    Love this place! I took my friends from out of town here and they absolutely loved it... I knew it would be the perfect spot to bring them. The portion sizes are generous, and I ended up ordering the same thing I got last time (a classic for a reason). I tried the banana latte, which was yummy but it had more cinnamon than banana. Prices feel fair for how much food you get, and the ambiance is cute and inviting.

    Banana bread latte

    When a restaurant lands on a "Top 10 Best in Phoenix" list, your expectations don't just rise... they put on hiking boots and start climbing Camelback. You walk in expecting fireworks. A choir. Maybe a slow clap from the kitchen. Well... let's just say The Eleanor didn't quite cue the choir. It was good. Solid. Respectable. The concepts? Wonderful. The execution? A little "almost." Like the kitchen got 90 percent of the way there and then decided that was close enough. My wife started with the banana bread latte. Now, the smell? Incredible. If they could bottle that aroma and sell it as a candle, I'd invest. The taste though? Pleasant. Fine. Just not bowl-you-over good. It was like banana bread's quieter cousin. Next up: caramelized banana pancakes. The bananas? Strong showing. Caramelized, sweet, doing their job. The pancakes themselves? Dense. Dry. They needed that maple butter syrup the way I need coffee on a Monday. Once you added the syrup, they became very good. Without it, they were auditioning for a role as paperweights. Light and airy they were not. Then came the steak and egg burrito. This one was a rollercoaster. A few bites were outstanding. "Okay, HERE we go!" energy. Then a few bites later, the flavor just... packed up and left. It had moments of brilliance followed by moments of "did someone turn the seasoning off?" But here's the plot twist: our waitress, Stephanie, absolutely stole the show. Attentive without hovering. Great recommendations. Warm. Personable. She elevated the whole experience. If Yelp allowed half stars specifically for service, she'd get them. Bottom line: I'm giving Eleanor four stars all day. Good? Yes. Very good? At times. Exceptional, life-changing, tell-your-friends-you've-seen-the-light? Not quite. Still worth going. Just maybe leave the hiking boots at home.

    The service was excellent and food was amazing! Would highly recommend for any occasion!! We went for my bachelorette and it was so much fun and the vibe was perfect! Coffee was amazing as well, nothing but great things to say!

I am wondering if they are under new management- the service is not what it used to be. I asked at the walk up counter to order a gin and cucumber cocktail- not on the menu but says they have a full bar. I was directed to order my food and then go and order a drink at the bar. Walked over to the bar, bartender was ringing someone out for patiently waited my turn. He made eye contact and then proceeded to clean the latte machine. When I saw him pick up counter cleaner, I asked if I could order a drink. I started to explain what I wanted. He repeated menu items, I asked if he could only make drinks in the menu. He said no. I asked for a cucumber, gin drink and he then started to rattle off items on the menu. I walked away and didn't order a drink. Food was ok - not like it used to be and WAY smaller portion than when the bowls were less expensive. Very sad, I used to always bring people here when they came to visit. The hostess brought my dog water without asking which was super nice.

    This review is for the totality of the experience…read more I made an advance reservation at Alma Scottsdale for a mid-sized group of 7 to celebrate a special occasion. Our party arrived right on time for our reservation, but we were not seated until 15 min later because our table was not ready. It took about an additional 15 min to get tap water for the table (there was not enough provided anyways), and to place our orders too another ~20 min. The food did not arrive until 30 min later. For context, we eventually learned that the restaurant was short staffed and the bartender was also operating as our waiter. When the food finally arrived, there was a mix-up on what was delivered. We had checked with the staff who delivered one of the dishes: we ordered the "wild mushroom" side, but what we received did not look quite like it. We asked clarifying questions x2, but were assured, "no, it is the wild mushroom." Turned out, it was the mushroom empanada that was delivered to our table, which we originally did not order. The management did rectify the situation upon the conclusion of the event when we were paying the bill, but to us, it felt a bit accusatory as if we intentionally wanted to cause a huge fuss about the final total, which was absolutely not the case. The food in general was delicious. If this was a more standard dining experience, it would have been 4-5 stars just for the food. The service was very subpar, and really colored the entire experience negatively, therefore the two star review. I understand that staffing shortages happen -- fine. My family has worked in food service as wait staff for 25+ YEARS, so I am empathetic. But for management to ring up our bill and then come confront us in an inflammatory manner, making us feel like we were wrong, on an occasion to celebrate something special, was extremely disappointing.

Plenty of seating including an enclosed patio. Bottomless drinks were replenished quickly. Food was pretty decent overall. Eric brought out a complimentary desert for my mom. CONS- There's no valet service on the weekend, parking is limited. I asked if I can bring a small cake and was told they can't hold it in the kitchen only behind the host stand. You only get one flavor of the bottomless margaritas you can't switch flavors. The bathroom stalls have frosted doors with only about 85% privacy, check out my pic for reference. We loved everything but the pomegranate guacamole needed some salt. The Açaí was liquidity. The Wagyu & eggs were good, small meat portion but it was filling after all the shared plates.
