Over the past several years, Scottsdale has shaped up to be quite bourgeois - and the Estate House reflects that. Nestled in the heart of downtown (the new section, not Old Town), this is a good place to go if a) you want to try to impress a dinner date or b) you'd like to enjoy cocktails with friends on a commercial outdoor patio.
The live band - specifically Miles David Lancette Studio 5 - on Friday evenings is really good. They help set a relaxed but fun tone to the Upstairs lounge where mint limeade mojitos can kick start a bourgie sort of night.
