A co-worker and I showed up late to a team dinner here and after squeezing into spots at a big round table, I had limited time to peruse the menu and order. Keeping it simple was the plan so, Wedge Salad, 10 oz. Filet and Baked Potato seemed like a good way to go.
The salad was an appropriate amount of fresh lettuce vs. the quarter of a huge head of iceberg some places serve. It came with bacon and diced tomatoes and some very good blue cheese dressing. The steak was cut somewhat thin and seemed small for a 10 oz. portion and was closer to medium than the medium rare I ordered. This helped lead to a less than juicy piece of meat. The baked potato was just fine as it's pretty hard to mess that up and came with butter and sour cream which was OK but it would have been nice to have been asked if I wanted that on top.
All in all, I give Village Tavern a high 3 stars and would be ok going back. Not a destination place for me however in a town with the dining options Scottsdale has to offer.
