Ok, I screwed up. Set up a business meeting for four people at 7pm at Tommy V's without a reservation on St. Patty's day (I forgot about it, along with forgetting to wear anything green) and during Cactus league/spring training in Scottsdale, Arizona. (From bad to worse.)
What did the manager do at Tommy V's? He found me a great table on the awesome patio and was gracious about it. Just for that wonderful accommodation alone would be enough...but hold up! The food was excellent (the eggplant, wow!) the wine and beer selection was great (kick ass happy hour prices) and the service was outstanding (thanks Tyler.)
This was my first time here along with one of my four guests and we all really had a nice time...and don't forget it was a business meeting! I am looking forward to going again if my experience ends up being like my last gig, it'll be worth it.
