| - I really wanted to like The Herb Box but the whole experience was honestly just not good. We went for brunch on Sunday and it wasn't too busy yet, the patio was pretty much full but no one was sitting inside.
Between the three of us, we got cold brew coffees, the stuffed french toast, the bourbon french, and the market blt.
The food took a while to come out but we were seeing other people's food come out of the kitchen so we knew it wasn't just us. When we got the food, both of the french toasts were yummy (i fell like it's pretty hard to make sugar topped carbs taste bad), but the market blt left something to be desired. The pancetta was actually just bacon bits and the bread tasted really stale and was crumbling in my hand while trying to eat it. The side of fruit was some melon chunks that weren't juicy and were fairly hard.
When we finished eating our waiter pretty much disappeared on us and after about 15+ minutes of trying to get his attention, we were finally able to flag him down to get the check (prior to the end of our meal he was great so it may have just gotten really busy?).
Once we finally got the check we noticed that several of the items cost more on the receipt than what they said on the menu. We pointed this out to our waiter, but instead of getting a new receipt that had the correct food prices, he credited us the difference. Normally this would of been fine except for we were splitting the check which made things weird- it also made us wonder if they had changed the prices but hadn't updated the menu yet, or why they didn't have those food items in the receipt system.
Although the lunch items sound good, there's too many other great eating places in the Scottsdale area for me to go back again.
