Other than the sold out specials at our 7:30pm seating at Tarbell's I was pleased with the restaurants' favorable aesthetic and crowd. I love an open kitchen where patrons can play audience to rising cooking flames and hot dishes ready to be served.
Cubed ahi tuna and chick peas to start (sounded interesting.) And for my main, the vegetarian dish "made with love" as the menu stated - was indeed.
Not to be forgotten, a beautifully assorted dessert platter on the house as a birthday present and dinner topper boasting a rich array of decadent sweets including my favorite the mascarpone cheesecake with warm rosemary caramel sauce.
Mark Tarbell, I'm hooked and I'll be back for more next time I'm visiting Phoenix's camelback area.
