AZ 88 is a great spot in Scottsdale for cool vibes and a cool atmosphere. It is located at the Scottsdale Civic Center and the patio over looks the Scottsdale Center for the Arts. If you are looking for a good patio in the area, definitely check it out.
The menu is good, tries to be interesting but it's just variations of appetizers, salads and chicken sandwiches. It's a casual menu with an upscale twist which is nice for the area. The prices are pretty reasonable also. Salads and Sandwiches are $12-$14 and the portions are a good size. The drink menu is also very impressive with tons of wines, rums, and craft beers to choose from.
We started with the house made chips with lox and cream cheese on top. Huge portion but I think they forgot half the lox. Interesting dish but I probably won't order it again. I had the AZ 88 salad for dinner which was great! It's a chopped salad with grilled buffalo chicken on top. The sandwiches come with waffle fries which is always a plus in my book!
