"One word: Crab Cake.\n\nI know this is a corporate type cookie cutter restaurant, but it is hard to deny the pimp that is Eddie V's.\n\nFirst of all, they have live music and hire good musicians. I know, cause I've played here. A particularly great night to come is Sunday, as \"The New Wrecking Crew\" throws down some out jazzy noises, but everyone playing there is legit.\n\nSecond, everything I've eaten there is top notch. \nMaine Lobster Tacos... oh yeah.\nTruffle mac and chac is banging.\nSteak carpaccio is killing it.\nI haven't even touched on an entree' yet.\n\nThey have a sushi bar too.\n\nThe one thing that pushed this joint over the edge for me is the crab cake.\nThis is the most glorious crab cake you will get in AZ. Crabby as hell with just enough other stuff to hold it together. The crab is fresh and high grade. Man it tastes so good, I'm about ready to go get one now.\n\nDid I mention they have Duvel? That's right if you're going to have a limited selection of beer, go for the gusto.\n\nThe service here is great and the management is incredibly nice... I don't think I've worked as a musician at a restaurant that has nicer management.\n\nThis place is expensive, but it's definitely well worth it."^^ .
