- CCurtisVIPLos Angeles •30 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThe food was simply outstanding. While pricey, this one is definitely worth it. Every item we had was delicious and creative. We particularly loved the New Style Sashimi and the King Crab Tempura Amazu, while also enjoying the Black Cod Butter Lettuce, Roasted Cauliflower, Salmon Nigiri, and the Toro Scallion Roll. Topping it off at the end were scrumptious deserts - Bento Box and the Whiskey Cappuccino. The service was similarly top notch.More infoNobu ScottsdalePrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Old Town Scottsdale•4.6
- SSamVIPIndiana •35 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe enjoy this restaurant immensely. The service is OUTSTANDING as is the food and ambience. Beautiful restaurant and everything you would expect from one of this caliber. We enjoyed a custom seafood tower with shrimp, snow crab legs, oysters, and stone crab claws. All fresh and delicious! We also enjoyed their oven roasted clams and beef tartare. Main course included waygu ribeyes, filet, A5 Japanese waygu, and more stone crab claws as they were in season. Wine list is very good and we enjoyed both white and red. Great job! We’ll be back.More infoOcean 44Price: Moderate• Unspecified• Central Scottsdale•4.9
- CCindyVIPPhoenix / Arizona •19 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoI introduced a friend to Moxies for lunch and she loved it as much as I do. We each had a lunch salad. I am gluten challenged and was provided a "Gluten Friendly, Vegan, Vegetarian" options menu in addition to the regular menu. My friend is pescatarian and found many options available to her. Our server checked back with us several times, we never felt rushed, and had great service too. The restaurant is beautiful, but lots of hard surfaces so a little loud, but we were still able to visit without problems hearing each other. Great spot for lunch and dinner.More infoMoxies - ScottsdalePrice: Moderate• American• Old Town Scottsdale•4.8
