| - Hey, this may be a poor man's Postino, (I wouldn't know, I haven't been there yet) But this place is GOOD.
Wine, good, and always a great special during happy hour:bonus. Food, very good. Service, attentive, conversational, not snobby (in Scottsdale, you should get some sort of medal for that)
I had a fried egg sandwich the first time I went. Amazing. Fries....they may in fact be what the bible refered to when it said: Manna rained from heaven. They are that good. Dusted with garlic, parsley, grated peccorino, lemon zest, and some other equally addictive goodness.
Second visit, had a burger. Cooked perfectly, topped with bacon, fried egg, wonderful artisian lettuce. MMmmmm.
Both times, had a great red wine. Can't make this man happier than to serve him a solid deep bodied red wine with his meal, and 5th was definitely up to par on that end.
Also both times, had their bruschetta plate, Tried different flavor combos both times...Memorable favorites were the steak and horseradish, and chicken salad. The sweet ones like apple and honey with cheese were a hit with the girls.
Gotta say I am a big fan of this place. Gets noisy on Friday nights, but what the heck, it's a bar with live music in Scottsdale, duh.
In all, highly recommended.
