The 15 Best Restaurants In Scottsdale, Arizona - Scottsdale - The Infatuation

"This trendy Mediterranean restaurant strikes the perfect balance between a lively party vibe and a spot where you can actually have a conversation. Even if your Old Town bottle service days are behind you, you’ll likely appreciate the espresso martinis or the deep house playlist that might keep you bouncing in your bar seat. The whipped eggplant, dripping in olive oil, is the move (think of it as the more decadent cousin of your favorite hummus) and served with an oversized, puffed-up puccia bread that looks like it could float off the bar at any moment. The wood-fired pizzas are also non-negotiable (order the one with hot honey). And when your tab comes, you’ll probably convince yourself that another round of mezcal espresso martinis is necessary, and see how you can scheme your way into the secret cocktail lounge, Bar Bambino." - lauren topor
