| - Is it a get your drink on and flirt your a$$ off, because you look damn good tonight or is it a fine dining establishment...? Well, it is definitely the former but fine dining, mmmm, not so much.
On the bar, seen and be seen crowd, it is awesome. Dress to the nines because it feels like Vegas ladies. People look fabulous and you can people watch all night and not be bored. The drinks are stiff, damn expensive and well worth it.
The food...Denny's sous chef was cooking the night I was eating and was doing a less than slamfastic job. We had the calamari and it was deep fried and resembled calamari in shape only. I had the bacon wrapped pork and was extremely unimpressed. The bacon was thin and slim. The sauce was dark, syrupy and had no particular taste. The ceasar salad was pure Denny's. Cut pieces of iceberg lettuce with a mayo dressing and big croutons. Strangly, marscapone cheese was a common ingredient in many dishes, the sauces and the soup. Given marscapone's bland taste, I didn't find adding it to entrees that innovative or interesting. So, get dressed up, get your drink on, but given the location, the Scottsdale restaurant scene is your oyster, so dine elsewhere.
