We had a party of four people and the tapas concept was a new adventure for some of our group. The spanish chorizo and shrimp tapa was ordered by one party member while the rest of us shared a small caesar, chicken curry tapa, smoked scallops tapa and a pork schnitzel entree.
Our waiter Barry, recommended the tapas and was willing to accommodate what we were sharing and not sharing. It worked out wonderfully.
The caesar dressing was tangy and delicious. The sauce in the chicken curry had a ginger peanut combination which surprisenly complemented each other and the chicken was tender and juicy. The brie lended a salty goodness and creaminess to the scallops and potato. The scallops were seared perfectly. The gravy on the pork schnitzel was flavorful, the potatos cooked just right and the red cabbage side was not too sweet and enhanced the pork.
We decided to try the restaurant as part of the Arizona Restaurant Gift card we purchased at Costco. We had just watched a game at Scottsdale Stadium and the restaurant was a bit of a drive but well worth the effort. Be careful, there is a photo enforced speed trap on the way there so go 45 MPH.
We were lucky to get a table without reservations because we arrived early. By the time we left, the restaurant was packed. Our waiter was attentive and service was efficient. We were able to talk to both owners and they were delightful. It is not often we go to restaurants where the owners are an integral part of the operations.
I wished we live in the area because this restaurant would be a regular alternative.
