| - My girlfriend was in from out of town and we wanted a good, romantic dinner. I just moved to Scottsdale for business and being from Chicago, I wanted a good spot. House of Tricks was marginal at best. First of all, everyone claims good ambiance. Not what its hyped up to be. We were sat in this very small dining room immediatly when you walk in. The worst part was that there was no music or background noise at all. We felt like we were in a library. With only 2 other tables, it was very awkward all night. I'm not saying we were looking for some chic modern place, but no noise, literally, was very weird. We were turned off from the get go, but stuck it out. The food was pretty good (scallop app was delicious), but the overall atmosphere ruined the meal. The service, again was just ok. Our waiter was a bit too attentive. Overall, I'd look elsewhere before going. Not at all what it is hyped up to be, especially for a $200 meal.
