Phenomenal food, great, imaginative cocktails with a well crafted wine list, and an atmosphere that manages to be both casual and intimate. I highly recommend the outdoor seating area in the back and the house-made ramen which was the best I've ever had. If I lived in the area The Upton would would absolutely be my go-to restaurant.
The Upton is a delightful slice of authenticity in the fake plastic palm tree that is Scottsdale.
