Sonata's had a booth at the Scottsdale Culinary Festival with a unique dish- Kepta Duona. Explained as a crispy rye bread with duck fat aioli and Havarti cheese sauce. This was one of the best tastes at the fest and w had to try the restaurant. Went there last Saturday and sat at the bar... From the moment we walked in the door to the time we left the experience was amazing. Easily one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant... Our bartender/mixologist's name was Will. It's not very often where you find someone as passionate about their trade as Will. We told him we came in because of the experience at the festival. Will took us down a path I will never forget. He made the most amazing drinks and walked us through the menu. Words can't explain how good this guy is at mixing drinks. They were all unique and delicious. The Kepta Duona was so good it would be worth making a trip just for that...
The restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday evening. Our understanding is they had challenges when they first opened... if you're reading this and you were part of those challenges, I'd highly recommend you give it another chance...
