I'm really glad North Scottsdale has a 4 Peaks location to keep it real. I tend to feel less and less compelled toward that area as it pops up with more commercial, crappy, generic restaurants, shopping centers and social hot (not) spots. I'm not big on the overall vibe up there for the most part, but I'm a softie for 4 Peaks. This location was equally as tasty and fun lovin as the Tempe joint but not as crowded. The food, the beer, the staff - all consistent with the original. I was really happy we found a spot to actually sit during a playoff game!
I'll be sure to ALWAYS suggest going here anytime I venture that-a-way. I'd take a microbrew and Thai Hummus over a Coors and nasty nachos anyday.
