  • For my inlaws last evening here in the Valley, we went to House of Tricks in Tempe because they wanted to try it based on a recommendation of one of their friends back in Ohio. The patio area is really pretty and we were lucky to get a table toward the back of the patio because it was a tad more secluded and we had better views of the beautiful flowers in the garden. The only bad thing about the location was there was not a light overhead like other tables on the patio so you had to hold your menu up to the candlelight to read it. The wine list is quite extensive, but we decided to go simple and had the Columbia Valley Riesling which was crisp and smooth. For appetizers we had the cheese plate and the mushroom flan. My inlaws loved the flan and said it had good flavor. The cheese plate was delicious...their was blue cheese, brie, and two other cheeses. All were very nice and there was a nice amount of apples, grapes, and strawberries as well. For dinner, I had a caesar salad and the scallop appetizer. The salad was a perfect size and the dressing was really nice and had a good garlic kick without being overpowering. The scallops were fine...not to die for or worth ordering again, but not bad. There was a little broth on the plate that was very tasty. I could have done without the lima beans that accompanied it. My husband had the sea bass (it comes de-boned for you) which he enjoyed; my father in law had the salmon based on their friend's recommendation which he liked a lot; and my mother in law had the duck which she liked, but she did not enjoy the blackberry vinagrette that came with it. We tried two desserts, the apple crisp and the triple mousse tower, and both were excellent. For two appetizers, four meals, two desserts, and 2 bottles of wine, our bill came to $195 before tip. Our waitress was very nice but service was very slow and not up to par with what you would expect at a place with the level of prices that House of Tricks has. My other negative about HOT is that it is loud when you sit outside. Between the mosque music, the traffic on the streets around HOT, and some other random noises from the immediate area, it is very distracting and takes away from the atmosphere and sereneness of the restaurant.
