I was very pleased with my evening at Blue Martini. My visit was for a friend's birthday on ladies night. (Yes, she is a lady) The ambiance and decor were excellent. The stage behind the bar is great, I did not feel the usual Scottsdale-Arizona cheese from Blue Martini. It almost felt as if I were in another city for a moment. (Then some silicone walked by) The bouncers were welcoming and professional. I did not see one Affliction shirt, the label I detest and see upon Scottsdale commoners. Yes, I know Blue is in The Phx . Our Pocahantes looking waitress was friendly and attentive. I will return, though I hear City North is struggling.
