Had lunch today with the positively glowing Gabi M and she suggested Arcadia Farms. I didn't realize I'd been here before until I parked. I stand by my previous review but am upgrading them to 4.5 stars. They are on the pricey side but I just love a restaurant that is designed for women. So much so I think I'll start a list.
This time I had the California club. Absolutely delicious. I opted for the potato salad on the side and it was really yummy. Gabi had a salad which was too big to finish and it looked very good as well.
We sat on the back patio and it was just lovely. This place has a great deal of outdoor space but it's secluded. None of this "yeah, it's a patio - just try not to breathe the exhaust fumes" mentality that restaurants are so fond of in the valley. So we enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the catchiing up. The catching up most of all.
And since I'm a temporary transplant to Scottsdale I just love how there's loads of wonderful stuff right in my own backyard.
