| - The service here is beyond impeccable. It is an art form. They are themed like a 20s movie, the uniforms are black lace dresses with tiny black and white frilled aprons and adorable. The upper level balcony is tight but cozy and overlooks Scottsdale Rd and 3rd. The menu is laid out like a script with plot twists and main story lines...
I ordered the four course tasting (up to seven are available) and made it chefs choice. My server, Loren, was beautiful beyond stunning and elegant as well. And so too were all the staff and my nearby dinner guests as well! They have a reverse happy hour which means this could be a good late night stop.
My first drink was the corpse reviver (appropriate as I was reading the hunger games as I was dining alone and lots of corpses in that book that needed reviving... and got it...), and it was refreshing like a lemonade. The GM even came out to say hello and share some excitement. And all the while, the music was great!
My first course was the inside out caprese which was amazing and complex and quite large for a tasting item! And the olive oil dust on it was unique and fun! It was followed by a perfectly sized sea bass over a bed of farrow, something I would never have picked, but man it was GREAT! I told Loren that I was avoiding sugar, so I wasn't interested in drinks with sweet and sour or simple sugars... she laughed and talked about how amazing their ingredients were and brought me my second drink... and it was delicious. My third drink was a blueberry cobbler if I remember correctly. I could pick my second drink off the menu, but can't recall the name now and apparently some of my notes didn't survive the night. :)
After the sea bass I was served veal, and quite a large amount of it too. One piece on a bone, the other two not. I am not a veal fan, but I ate it and as far as Veal goes, it was right on. My final course was the Prime steak and it was absolutely perfect. I avoid prime rib and rib eyes as I don't like fatty meats, but this one was trimmed perfectly, just full of amazing flavor and no fat at all visible. And the mango gelle was great!
Not only did the GM pay me a visit, but other waitresses came out to say hi, and then the owner! And then the chef! It is a rare treat to get to talk to a beautiful waitress, her wonderful colleagues, her GM, the owner and the chef all on your very first visit! Without a doubt, service is their number one mission and so is elegant unusual food!
This has moved into my number one spot for a pre bar hop dinner in oldtown and I will be going back again soon!
