What a great luncheon date, bridal/baby shower, girlfriends-catching-up setting. I adore the patio, with its plush cushioned seats and even more so, the inside is adorable. We had just arrived in Scottsdale after a 22 hour trip and wanted somewhere to sit and relax for a little bit. We came upon Arcadia Farms and took our luck without a reservation. Luckily the hostess helped us out and as we weaved through the somewhat tight seating, I knew this was my kind of place. She led us out on to a back patio and in to another little seating area where there were women talking over glasses of white wine and amazing look lunch dishes.
We sat and were brought water and offered Apricot Iced Tea--of course I chose to try it, it sounded fantastic (and I wasn't disappointed). After looking over the menu (and having a hard time deciding) I chose to try the Pesto Shrimp Salad, while my mother got the Turkey and Brie sandwich. Both were phenomenal, the pesto and the shrimp were both spot on to make a simple salad more flavorful and exciting. It was a perfect light meal after a long, long car ride.
