| - One-half bistro, one-half wine store...
This restaurant is basically the back-room for AZ Wine Company. You enter through the wine store (where you can incidentally pick a bottle for dinner from their vast collection), then you make your way over to their dining area. Don't worry -- if you purchase wine from their shop, they will wave the cork fee for dinner.
The cozy (read: teeny-tiny) bistro section, is dimly lit and sparse on decor. But if you happen to love candles and basic black everything, this is the spot for you. Their menu is small, but the dishes are flavorful and well prepared. Their website claims that the food is southwest inspired -- but that's not exactly how I would describe it. The courses are more like French PLUS: French + Korean, French + Italian, French + Southwest... you get the picture. The waiting staff is not only polite, and well informed about dishes, but discreet (i.e. they won't bug the hell out of you while you are trying to eat). This is the perfect place to take a date.
NOTE: The mapping feature doesn't accurately display where this business is located, so I uploaded a pic. It is on Scottsdale Rd (just South of Thomas) in a rather non-descript shopping center, next to a beauty salon.
**UPDATE: It looks like the map has been fixed :)
