| - Love the ZuZu. Everything from the atmosphere to the food. Not to mention their awesome happy hour -- pretty sure it goes until 7 pm, which is longer than most in Scottsdale.
My fiance and I live down the street from ZuZu, but never tried it out for the longest time as it's connected to the Valley Ho Hotel and semi-hidden. I wish we would have tried it sooner to know what we were missing. They have something for everyone whether you want a fun cocktail, an appetizer or a full meal. We always eat in the bar area - it has a great retro vibe with funky chairs and fun wall decor. I'm a fan of their bramble (gin + lemon & blackberry) and the sangria. At happy hour, their drinks are only $5. As for food, I love their seasoned fries, I believe they have some sort of garlic powder on them, and they are served with a delicious chipotle aioli. Very difficult to stop eating the fries once you start. I also loove the chicken quesadilla, which comes stuffed with mango and jalapenos + sides of sour cream, guac & salsa - amazing combination! The burger is also pretty killer. Be sure to get the one with bacon and BBQ sauce, it's finger-licking good.
My fiance and I have only had dinner at the ZuZu once, we tend to keep it as a happy hour spot. If you're looking for a fun place to start your evening, or to unwind after work, check out Cafe ZuZu!
PS - Wine Wednesdays are also a great hit for HH. The first time my fiance and I ever visited ZuZu was on a Wednesday, and they were serving Silver Oak for only $5 a glass. If you know anything about wine, you know that Silver Oak is a very nice wine, sold at Costco for at least $75 a bottle, or upwards of $150 a bottle at a restaurant. $5 a glass at ZuZu was insane and probably what started our love affair with the joint.
