Any great Phoenix/Scottsdale dining locations?? Open to any kind of food except vegan.
My wife and I were just there in April. Our best meal was at Gallo Blanco in Phoenix. In addition to some nice apps, I had the La Bomba Torta and it was spectacular - just bursting with flavors. And the place is VERY reasonably priced, too.
I'd recommend that if you go any place with "Barrio" in the name, you choose the original: Barrio Cafe on 16th St in Phoenix. Barrio Queen and a few others are fine, but Barrio Cafe is much better IMHO (sorry Ardmore).
We really liked a brewery on Scottsdale Rd near the Tempe line: Fate Brewery. Enjoyed several real good beers and some surprisingly good food.
My wife loves the prime rib sandwich at Houston's in Scottsdale. They have really good ribs, too.
For a beautiful setting, we like to do a late lunch overlooking the 18th green at Grayhawk golf club in north Scottsdale. It's usually packed around normal lunch time, so we go around 2:30.
My wife is a big-time ramen enthusiast and really liked Clever Ramen on Scottsdale Rd.
Enjoy!
