Who knew Asian food could be so much fun. Sens epitomizes all the reasons why you should skip Scottsdale restaurants and just head to downtown Phoenix.
Executive Chef Johnny Chu as created a hip restaurant atmosphere complete with great service (the servers gladly make recommendations and are attentive), a wonderful atmosphere complete with a DJ that plays hip mood music (my husband tipped the DJ just for playing the Selectors, I guess it brought him back to his college days); and the most deliciously creative Asian food on the planet.
To give you and example of the creativity, we tried a spicy tofu and vegetable dish (a chef special of the night) with a decidedly Asian flavor, served with taco chips a-la salsa-like for dipping. The combination was suprising and delish!
Parking can be found in the rear of the building. If that is full and you have to park on the street, be aware that the meter-natzi is ever vigilant and exercises her/his authority liberally, so feed the damn meter.
