Course Restaurant

We went to celebrate our anniversary and got a welcome glass of delicious prosecco! We both did wine pairings, very well paired with the dishes. The presentation and flavors of each dish were so unique and delicious! Definitely add the foie gras if you can, one of my favorite dishes we had. We got to meet Corey, the chef, he was so nice and I could tell the staff liked their jobs and worked well together. We will be back next time we visit Scottsdale!

This place is BONKERS good. Each course had me saying, aloud, "this is the best thing I've ever eaten." I chose the 5-course dinner service (there was also an 8-course offered). The standout for me was honestly the amuse-bouche at the beginning which was a macaron with caviar and crème fraiche, I could've eaten ten and it still wouldn't have been enough. The octopus surprised me as well in its grilled perfection. Shoutout to service team members David, Alex, and Justin who took great care of me during my visit. Pic of bartender Justin's majestic lychee fortune cookie cocktail for my review tax. Seriously though - can't recommend Course highly enough for the 10/10 service, food, and ambience. Can't wait to return!

This place was very highly rated and I know the chef has won multiple awards, so I had high expectations especially when I don’t come across many tasting menus in PHX or superb ones. Taking a look at the menu, I might’ve been underwhelmed with just reading descriptions but I can say these dishes are way more elevated than I expected and enjoyed more than I would have thought. Service was outstanding as well, I believe our server’s name was Kat? Anyways she was incredible and continued to check up on us constantly. My fav dishes of the 8 course summer menu 2025 was surprisingly the BLT (I was questionable about how a BLT was to be fine dining and I usually don’t even like BLT) and the sea bass. But overall I enjoyed all the dishes, so many unique flavors that surprised me like the aerated chimichurri! My fiancé and I enjoyed our experience. Small restaurant seating and a little tight but very intimate.

For my dad Ken’s 71st birthday, we booked a dinner at Course, a modern tasting-menu restaurant in Scottsdale that brings serious fine dining energy without feeling stuffy. The sleek patio dining area is shaded, surrounded by greenery, and has overhead misters that kept the Arizona heat totally manageable. We were comfortable the whole night, even as the sun set and the multi-course magic began. Now, before we get into the food, let’s clear something up. Yes, my dad and I get mistaken for twins. He’s 71 and somehow still aging in reverse. No complaints though, we’ll take it. The $175 tasting menu was flawless. Every plate was beautifully presented and came with a clear, thoughtful explanation from the staff. They handled dietary preferences without a hitch. My mom skipped the raw oyster, and I passed on the strawberry and rhubarb dessert. The kitchen adjusted everything perfectly. Oyster with caviar, crème fraîche, and grape was a briny, silky opener with pops of acidity and richness. The swordfish with guacamole and aguachile came next, smoky and citrusy with guac foam for a fun twist. The manicotti with sea asparagus and lemon-garlic cream was rich but bright. The pasta was delicate, and the lemon cut through just right. English pea risotto with chicken oyster and hen of the woods mushroom was creamy, savory, and earthy with crispy mushroom for contrast. The white sea bass with yellow tomato and squash was perfectly seared with sweet tomato and subtle squash flavor. Lamb loin with fava bean and mint was juicy and paired with a crispy tart filled with mushroom duxelle and greens. The striploin with foie gras demi and baby vegetables had deep, beefy flavor with a velvety sauce that was bold without overpowering. Strawberry, rhubarb, hibiscus, pink pepper, and amaranth arrived as a sculptural dish that looked like it belonged in a modern art museum. Tart, floral, and just a bit spicy from the pink pepper. Not my preferred flavor combo, but it was beautifully done. Walnut with toast and honey cream was earthy, nutty, and warm with a cozy contrast of crunchy and smooth textures. The Pocky-inspired finale with chocolate, malt, vanilla, and cotton candy was playful and nostalgic. The kitchen also surprised my dad with a warm fig cake and candle. Thoughtful and subtly sweet. It was the perfect bite to end the night. Every drink, from creative mocktails to classic cocktails, was clean and beautifully presented. The pacing was spot-on. Just as we finished one dish, the next was explained and served without a long wait. Course is polished without being pretentious. It’s a place where details matter, but the vibe is relaxed. Whether you’re celebrating something big or just want an unforgettable dinner in Scottsdale, this spot gets it right. Just be ready. If your dad looks anything like mine, you might get called twins

This place is the only upscale restaurant where I thought they should have charged more for how amazing the food was. This restaurant only does a tasting menu. Often with tasting menus it feels like the chef is trying to be "weird" or "out of the box" but this was all about perfect food, not trying to be edgy, even when it was items you don't see every day. Every single plate was a masterpiece. There was nothing tacked on, nothing missing, just pure perfection. They even give you a gift bag at the end with waters and cookies for the ride home. I can think of nothing to criticize or change. The Chef has mastered his craft and we WILL be back.

We recently moved to Scottsdale a few months ago, and were excited to learn of this new fixed-menu concept at Course, which some were likening to a Michelin-star experience. I can tell you Course more than lives up to its hype. My wife and I have been fortunate to dine at several Michelin-starred restaurants, both here in the U.S. and in Europe, and consider our dinner at Course this evening one of the top fine-dining experiences we’ve ever had. From the unique cocktails we enjoyed at the bar before sitting down, to the attentive and professional service, and of course through the amazingly creative and delicious menu items, we continued to be blown away by everything Course had to offer. We cannot recommend it enough. If you’re considering dining there, book your reservation ASAP. You will not be disappointed.

UPDATE 2025 - Tucked unassumingly in a Scottsdale strip mall, Course Restaurant is a culinary gem that continues to impress—so much so that we returned to experience their new Summer 2025 tasting and bar menus. Chef Cory Oppold and his talented team view cuisine as a multisensory art form, delivering a meticulously crafted nine-course journey that blends visual elegance with bold, seasonal flavor. Highlights from this season's menu include a savory macaron, a playful snow cone, a reimagined BLT, tender octopus, exquisitely prepared Chilean sea bass, succulent pork loin, and a standout beef tenderloin paired with beefsteak tomato, pee wee potato, chestnut mushroom, and scallion. The meal concludes with a dessert as refined as the courses before it. Don't be intimidated by the number of dishes—each course is thoughtfully portioned, offering just the right amount to savor without overwhelming. And if the food wasn't enough, the new cocktail program, led by bar manager Justin, is equally memorable. Course remains firmly planted on our top 10 list—for good reason.

Superb all around. The staff, the experience and of course, the food... Incredibly well done and very thoughtful dishes. This blows away Monarch or any other fine dining establishments in all of Scottsdale. Justin is the best mixologist in the valley. His craft cocktails are so unique and so well thought out. Justin, you're the man.

Being surrounded by other casual restaurants, a movie theater, etc, I was a little skeptical at what the atmosphere would be. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! Very fine dining, a beautifully coursed meal with excellent drinks. The waiter was outstanding and really went the extra mile with his attention to me and my wife. Knowing they change their menu seasonally we'll be back!

My husband and I have never indulged in a prix fixe meal but we figured our 27th anniversary was a fine time to try one. We were intrigued by the Father's Day Menu which was five courses plus dessert and a mignardise. (A small, final sweet treat. Yes, I had to look that up!) I'll post a photo of the menu and just mention a few highlights, but the presentation of everything was beautiful and tasted wonderful. My favorite round by far was the third course: swordfish steak, cooked perfectly with a tasty sauce, roasted tomato and eggplant purée. Another course I enjoyed was the second: poutine. It looks very basic in the photo - just like a couple of simple French fries. But the crisp potatoes with the cheese, lardons, sauce and scallions all went together very well. The only dish I was somewhat disappointed in was the dessert, which was a PB & J creation. I love peanut butter but I was expecting more from a high-end, expensive restaurant. For what we were paying I'd hoped for something really elegant. It still tasted fine but was very basic. The service here was warm and friendly. We were greeted by a very nice host. We had a team of servers bringing our food - all very knowledgeable and kind. We especially liked our Fork Guy whose job seemed to be replenishing our utensils for each new course. He was sweet! So now the mysteries of the prix fixe meal have been unlocked. Even though the plates are small, I personally feel like it's a lot of food and left feeling extremely full and satisfied. If you want to splurge for a special occasion, check out their menus online to see if they suit you.

I can't say enough about Course. The food is wonderfully creative and delicious, Cory's brunch and dinner creations are fantastic. The restaurant is cozy and inviting. The drinks are out of this world (Justin is a creative evil genius!). The GM Dave is the consummate host. You will never be disappointed dining here!

Chef Cory Oppold at Course restaurant continues to delight with a most impressive, sophisticated and refreshing summer menu. Presentations were superb , service was impeccable and the pace of the meal was perfect.. five stars without question ! The foie gras supplément was absolutely exquisite and Corey my server was remarkable in every way possible !

This was an experience. 11 courses and 2+ hours of dining. It was such a relief to have an actual pleasant dining experience, restaurants recently have been hit or miss. This is definitely a hit. If you love fine dining, come here. It's a seasonally rotating prix fixe menu where classic French technique meets culinary inspiration from around the world. The service is obviously impeccable, with your server tour guiding each course. There is too much to say about the food, but one thing I can say is you won't leave hungry. Although each course is small, the flavor experiences and multitude of courses make up for it. The stand outs for me were the cauliflower, fish and chips, and the steak. If you have a chance to experience this specific menu, take the opportunity. All in all, it's 190$ per person not including beverage choice. If you're looking to impress, this is the place for you. We spent spent close to 500$ (with tip and drinks).

We made a reservation for 12 days of Christmas. The whole restaurant and the staff are so festive. I love every dish. This is the first time that I enjoy everything they served. Now I understand why the chef was named one of the best chef. The restaurant is so tight. The tables and the bar stools are so close together. Sometimes it felt like the staff were walking too close too our table. The parking can be a challenge since they are in the busy business complex.

We made a Fri night reservation so we could have the 10 course meal. Not every dish is going to hit perfectly, but it was a fantastic experience. My husband and adult son were with me and we each had our favorites and our least favorites - and they definitely weren't the same! The service was impeccable and the experience was fantastic.

You had me at Amuse Bouche! What a gastronomical experience for such an unassuming location. Beautiful modern/clean interior decor and pleasantly surprised by the option of patio seating. We dined in mid-February trying the Winter 5 Course Prix Fixe Menu. (Note: 8 Course is also an option at added cost). Wine Pairing +90 Add on - WORTH IT! Amuse Bouche: Celery Root Royale (Caviar, celery, chervil) - Dreamy! Course 1: Ocean Trout (Kohlrabi, granny smith apple, horseradish, dill) Course 2: Stuffed Mushroom Cap - Cremini, Brown butter, Nori, Tofu - Delicious! Course 3: John Dory, potato, manila clam, leek, smoke, veloute - Yummy! Course 4: Squab, Wild Rice, Cranberry, Peet, rosemary, goat cheese (dark meat fowl, it was rich almost like duck). Cooked to perfection. Delectable! Course 5: Snow Dessert: Banana , White Chocoloate, coffee, walnut - Decadent! We loved the amazing staff, stellar service, friendly patrons here were fun and chatty as we experienced some of the same delight together. It's expensive but worth every penny for every bite!

It pains me to write a review like this but I deem it necessary. Went to course this past Saturday with my wife as we were intrigued by the idea of doing a courses out meal. We've had excellent experiences at other places like Cafe Monarch that offer the same type of experience and was hoping to replicate. Unfortunately, course fell short of the mark. There were positives and negatives, but in the end the experience did not live up to the hype or the price. The service was great. All staff members were friendly and knowledgeable on the dishes. The drinks were very good, though we had 4-5 of the melon-infused vodka drinks and felt practically nothing so it seemed a bit light on the alcohol. We sat on the patio which was lovely. But at the end of the day, there was two key factors that were a big let down. First and foremost was the food. Of the 10 courses we had, 3-4 were good. The rest were either just "ok" or just not good. The second issue was the spacing of the courses. There was a lot of downtime between courses. We spent almost 3 hours at the restaurant and were pretty much over it by course 5 or 6. We've eaten at top restaurants all over the world, from Paris to Tokyo to NYC and beyond, and this was the single most expensive meal we've ever had. Perhaps it was an off night? Not sure, but for the price every aspect should have been exceptional, and it just wasn't.

My wife and I have been to Course in the past for a special event. This time we went for their valentine day menu. We also chose to do the wine pairing. Wow! Everything was amazing! The wine pairing made the difference and elevated dinner. It was very pricey but worth it for a special occasion. Service was top notch.

10/10 best fine dining experience I've had in AZ and on par with Michelin star restaurants. The food is exceptional with standout flavor profiles that are creatively combined. Every dish was delicious and unique. The cocktails were superlative - mixologist Justin goes above and beyond to make one of a kind drinks that pair perfectly with the menu. Our server Corey was attentive, knowledgeable and kind. Great service. Memorable food. Fantastic drinks. We will be back.

Fantastic find in our local neighbourhood. Truly fine dining at its best. Service was excellent. The staff were extremely attentive. Big shout out to Alex our server and Jacob who kept changing our cutlery between courses. This is a prefixed menu. We went for the eight course summer menu. The chef truly knows what he's doing. Each course was better than the last and it was difficult to pick a favorite. Something as boring as a BLT was presented beautifully with fantastic texture and flavor of each of its elements. My husband commented that he's eaten a lot of octopus, but the chefs presentation, the texture and taste of the octopus was outstanding. This an expensive little place, but definitely worth the experience. We will be back soon for another special location.

I wasn't expecting this restaurant to be in a strip mall, we sat inside and the windows have some sort of glass cover preventing you from seeing the outside parking lot. We were greeted immediately and sat at our table. The server was nice and prompt. They let us do the 10 course meal with wine pairing even though it was a weekday. The wine pairing was mostly wine with one beer and one cider. We ordered a cocktail as well, but did notice there was a bug in there. By then we already had our first wine so elected not to have them remake it, although they offered several times. It wasn't a big deal but was surprised they didn't take it off the check, not did we ask. The meal itself, we've done a couple prefix meals in other states. I would say this one was good but I've definitely been to better ones. The courses were all beautifully presented, they all tasted good, a couple slightly on the salty side, but overall there wasn't one course that I left thinking about or wanting more of. Overall, it was a great date night and good experience.

A loke. No reason to Go here. What a laugh. We were here last night get and couldn't figure anything out.

This is a review for their Sunday brunch concept! We tried their most recent menu and it started off great but each course felt more ordinary as we moved along. I think we paid for fresh ingredients, great service, and an elevated atmosphere. Sitting inside is also much nicer than sitting on the patio imo since it was a regular patio right in between Pita Jungle and Coconuts Fish cafe. Course 1//Potato Latke: Started off strong with delicious salmon on a warm potato latke. The chive creme fraiche was yummy. Course 2//Tuna tataki: Tuna was fresh and well flavored. Not much done to the watermelon or jicama, felt like just cut slices. Course 3//Warm asparagus salad: Pretty good, but the creme fraiche felt really pretty similar to course 1. Flavors were nice and savory. Course 4//Shakshouka: This is where the dishes started going downhill for me. Felt and tasted ordinary for the most part. The bread crumbs did add a crunchy texture contrast which was nice. Course 5//Monte Cristo: Sadly, it was like a ham & cheese sandwich with fancy cheese. Tasted exactly what it looked like and folks at our table said they could make something similar at home. It was good, but not impressive or special. And the same creme fraiche showed up again. Course 6//Carnitas Huevos Rancheros: Another dish that made us wonder why this whole meal was $75/pp. It tasted fine. Course 7//Milk & Cereal: A fun play on cereal. Panna cotta was nice but again, simple when we expected something more for a highly rated restaurant like Course. Cereal came in a box and was a pie crust with some dried berries. Toys inside the box were fun. Overall, we enjoyed half the meal. Again, service is great. Friendly. Courses paced a bit far out so you have time to chat with company. We expected a bit more for the price point and would not recommend to big eaters as you might still be hungry after as portions were small. Friend mentioned the previous brunch menu was a bit more special.

Came for Morning Would experience. Super nice ambiance, nestled within the strip mall/restaurants. The service was great and server was attentive but wouldn't smile for the life of him. We went for Sunday brunch and the patio was full but the inside dining area was free. I appreciated that the food was all pretty light on additional salt, highlighting the ingredients themselves. It was on the pricey end - $100 per person with tax and tip (mainly paying for the service) since the arrangement of ingredients was on the simpler side and all dishes were 3-4 bites, so a few of the guys were pretty hungry after.

This was my second time having the pleasure to come here. It was just as fantastic as the first time. Food, service, and drinks were exquisite. We did the 10 course fall menu. I love that they have different menus to come and try, it was a whole new flavor experience. Our waiter was attentive and always made sure we knew what we were eating, and made the experience a relaxing one. The food was very exciting and each dish was so unique and flavorful. Not to mention, after all 10 courses we were very full and satisfied. I will say, the "bread" course was a little boring flavor wise, but I really liked the rest of the courses. We also got a little slice of heavenly chocolate cake for my partner's birthday. Overall, it was a great time and worth every penny.

Five stars in every respect, from the moment we walked through the door to the departure. Truly this is like dining in a Napa 5 star restaurant but closer to home. Chef and his entire team are SO talented and considerate. The level of hospitality and detail are unmatched. We go to press in Napa a few times a year and Course is absolutely its sister restaurant in the desert. Absolutely unbelievable and we can't wait to come back!

We came here Saturday evening for an anniversary dinner and were extremely impressed. The restaurant itself is unassuming and tucked away in a strip mall but it might be one of the most exciting culinary things going on in Scottsdale. The summer menu is impressively fresh with nothing feeling heavy. Dishes are on the complicated side and we discovered the true magic is getting a bit of every ingredient in every bite. We didn't love every single course but they were all artfully combined and presented. Each dish is a work of art. Service was great and our server took us back to the kitchen to meet Chef which was unexpected and neat. The only negative things I can say about the evening are... I had a dish with shrimp that was overcooked which was a shame because the shrimp would have been amazing otherwise. The gift bag at the end is confusing. It contained two bottles of water and two tiny cookies. This is definitely a solid option and we will be returning.

I've been to my fair share of highly rated restaurants, but this one might be my new favorite in AZ. My wife and I each got the tasting menu and were able to share the plates that we got that were different. EVERY plate was amazing. It's hard to pick a favorite, everything was plated beautifully, all the flavors worked perfectly together. Our servers were amazing and very attentive. I can't wait to come back again!

Small place in a strip mall. Very clean and not super busy when we went. Sat inside. Our waiter and service in general was phenomenal. The portions are small - really small. It's incredibly well thought out and some unique dishes. A very cool date spot. Big drink selection. Not sure that it would be great for a big party but a date spot yes. Expensive but worth it for a one time deal.

I didn't know what to expect in a plaza with a Harkins movie theater but THIS PLACE IS OUTSTANDING! cannot say enough good things. Yes it's expensive but wonderful for special occasions. Recommending this to anyone with an anniversary or birthday.

Had a fantastic anniversary dinner at Course. Highly recommend for both food and service. Great teamwork made our dinner a delight. Loved all the bites in the 5 course testing menu. Glad my husband was open to testing out the options opposite my choices so we really got to try everything! Left feeling full! (For years we have celebrated our anniversary at another incredible PHX restaurant known for its multi course experience but very happy to discover another great option when we are in town!)

Exceptional food ,exceptional presentation and exceptional service .Dishes were all inventive and creative . Our server Corey was friendly ,helpful and informative .We visited with Chef Cory in the kitchen who kindly took time out of his busy schedule to chat with us .Cant wait to go back again and will recommend to all my friends . One quibble the restaurant is cold ,I'll bring a sweater next time !!

We had a pleasant evening overall, thanks in large part to the excellent service. Every staff member was warm, attentive, and on top of the little details, like keeping our water glasses full. A few of the dishes truly stood out, and dessert was a highlight. That said, for an eight-course menu, we did leave a bit hungry. Some courses lacked the flavor or complexity we expected, and the ambience didn't quite match the fine dining experience one would expect--the casual decor and pop music detracted from the mood. The tightly packed table layout, while understandable given the small space, made the experience feel more cramped than cozy. It was difficult to have a private conversation, as we could clearly hear every word from nearby tables, and the lack of space led to some awkward interactions--like having our server's backside uncomfortably close to our faces while they tended to the table beside us. It's clear the team cares deeply about hospitality, and with a few adjustments to the space and menu, this could be a much more elevated experience.

Took my wife here for her birthday and this restaurant is phenomenal! Easily one off the best dining experiences I have ever had! The service was tremendous and the staff was so friendly. The food was so so delicious and the wine pairing made it even better! The ambiance was really great, and music made the atmosphere so enjoyable. Cannot wait to come back!

We celebrated our anniversary at Course for the first time . The experience was nice , their presentation of each dish absolutely beautiful but not every dish is top notch , a little bit salty for my taste . Outstanding service!

An incredible meal. If you haven't experienced a high-end tasting menu, Course is the perfect place to do it. Each course is bursting with flavor and meticulously thought out. The cocktail program is also underrated; very unique and worth the price.

This was a tough review to write because I was really hoping for a great experience. I visited Course to see if it would be a good place to bring my family for Christmas, but unfortunately, it fell short in several areas, not the food though, it was very good and beautifully presented. When we arrived, they may have been short handed at the host stand--no one was there, and it took a few minutes before a waiter invited us inside. We had reserved outdoor seating, which was nice at first, as we had the entire space to ourselves. The covered patio, surrounded by a mix of real and fake plants, could seat about 40-50 people. However, the experience was disrupted when cars parked nearby and their headlights shone directly into our eyes. A suggestion: adding more foliage at the far end to block out the parking lot lights would greatly improve the ambiance. Another issue was the mosquitoes, which made dining outside uncomfortable. Perhaps some citronella candles or other deterrents could help with this. Service was slow, both with drinks and food. The drinks, once they arrived, were excellent. The food followed a similar pattern--most of it was delicious, especially the cauliflower dish, beef, and fried cod. The presentation of every dish was impressive. However, the pacing of the courses was too slow, especially given the small portion sizes. By the time we finished a course, we were left waiting too long for the next, which affected the overall flow of the meal. While the chef's talent and the staff's friendliness were clear, I would recommend sitting inside for a more comfortable dining experience. Hopefully, with a few adjustments, this restaurant can live up to its potential.

This was a full on dining experience. Each course was tastier than the next perfect sizes small bites, but you were so full by the end service was impeccable!! they really went over the top to make it a super fun dining experience. We ate and drank for 2 1/2 hours highly recommend it.

Outstanding experience! We had the 10 course tasting menu. Every plate had at least one unique taste. The Duck Ham and house made pretzel with goat cheese are examples that were on the 2024 Winter menu. The room is attractive and comfortable. The staff is attentive and helpful. The restaurant is located in a shopping center with ample parking.

We did the tasting menu. We wanted to love it. The only course that was remarkable or memorable was the swordfish. Everything else was good, but not special. This made us both pretty sad because again, we wanted to love it. The staff was all lovely and knowledgeable. You don't want to spend $600 and leave thinking that was ok, except the swordfish.

One of the most fun and delicious brunch experience - definitely a must go place for any foodie! We had the 7-course brunch menu, although each serving was small, each bite had a mouth full of flavor. Everything was so artistically presented on the plate.

Course by Chef Cory Oppold was one of the few fine dining experiences where the value truly matched the quality. The tasting menu was thoughtful, with each course feeling intentional and well-balanced. The food was prepared with care and precision, and small touches like keeping our glasses full and making sure we were comfortable really stood out. It's clear that every detail is considered. We'll absolutely be returning.

Considering all aspects of the restaurant with exception to service, honestly it was just okay. I would not recommend this restaurant unless you are not really that hungry and you want to spend 3 house enjoying very small portions at a high price point. In some situations, it may be perfect but if you have a good appetite, it may be a bit disappointing. Presentation was lovely however, the taste was not exceptional. Desert was disappointing as well. The ambiance was exctremely lacking and yes, to us that is highly important. We sat outside and it was a bit cool but turning a heater on was not offered (even though it was close by) nor were we asked whether we were comfortable. Now, last but not least the wine markup was ridiculous! $150 for a $40 bottle of Chardonnay. This is where I have a difficult time sugar coating the truth. Just unacceptable.

So good we came twice! My fiancé brought me here as a surprise for my birthday & I loved every moment. We opted for the 10 course with the wine pairing and did not disappoint. The service was impeccable & we loved the ambiance. The complexity and variety of flavors for the dishes was wonderfully executed with each course. We met the amazing chef at the end of the night which was an extra special treat. While at dinner I learned they also offered a course brunch which sounded so amazing to me so I booked a reservation for the next day immediately. So many amazing flavors & the drinks got me over my hangover. I'm so excited to go back and bring friends so they too can experience this food art. Shout out to the entire restaurant because everyone was lovely & they certainly went above and beyond to make my night especially special.

Great restaurant. Food and service were great. Cocktails were great too. I got the one that had tequila & lavender in it. We also added the wine pairing to the meal. I shared the wine pairing with my dad as it would've been too much wine for myself. I hope they rotate their menu seasonally & that this place stays in business. It was about a 3 hour meal. You must put a deposit down when making the reservation. The last dessert dish that they brought had a message in a bottle. The message had the check in it, which was funny, but also a bit tacky too. Instead of saying there is a note in there for us they should just say that the check is in there.

Wow! Wow! Wow! AMAZING DINNING EXPERIENCE! A must try! Fabulous concept, incredible food, very unique!

We went to the brunch on Sunday the cleverly call Morning Would. Service was impeccable and the space gorgeous. The first course was the biscuit and gravy take and was phenomenal. Frittata and quiche served back to back was a little similar... the following sous vide egg with smoked caper was delicious. The egg on top expertly and carefully cooked. Yolk perfectly runny. Chilaquiles missed for me and I was excited for it. Missed a heartier corn tortilla note. Corned beef hash plate was ok... but another sous vide egg. One is enough for me in the menu especially with frittata and quiche. This egg white was still a little gelatinous. Beignets and panna cotta passable. I'm sure better for those that have the sweet tooth I lack. Would try dinner here as I can see the skill, innovation and service but this menu was a little 'egg heavy one trick pony' for the price.

Holy hell this place is top notch!! We had the Morning Would 7 course tasting menu and every bite was pure bliss. It was the perfect amount of food, we both left stuffed. Our server Jacob was so well educated about the menu and answered every question we had, and we had a lot because everything was so unique. Plus the chef even came to our table to greet us. I don't know that I've ever had that happen before but it was such a nice gesture and added to the experience even more. I'm a vegetarian and they happily accommodated my diet. My husband is a meat eater and he was so happy the entire meal. He kept saying "this was such a great idea". Definitely the highlight of our trip so far. Every time we come to Scottsdale we will put this place at the top of our list. Our favorites were the corned beef, the Benedict, and the milk and cereal, though everything was absolutely fantastic.

Amazing meal Paced nicely Great service Lovely ambiance Can't wait to return The wagu beef was melt in your mouth

If you get the chance to try Course go for it. You won't be disappointed. The service was impeccable. Our waiter and sommelier were both great as well as everybody else there. The interior was refined and classy and was a great backdrop to delicious food. Every course was unique and different and I got to try food I'd never tried before. I can't wait to see what their menu is next season.

Amazing all around. We had the Sunday brunch and it was beyond perfect. The food course was excellent and delicious. The service was superb. Can't wait to go back

Wow. Just wow. North Scottsdale has a big hitter in the fine dining scene. And Course hit it out of the park in every way possible. The vision of Chef Cory has come to life in an exquisite setting with remarkable food and a warm, friendly and inviting staff. There's not one ounce of pretentiousness here. Make no mistake though, Course is fine dining at its best. The plating. The service. The food. Wow. The food. 10 course tasting menu. A PHENOMENAL wine pairing(if you decide to go that route). Although we did not partake in cocktails...the presentation of all that we saw was spectacular. Every dish was well thought out. Well executed. And the flavors? Again, wow. Just wow. Thank you Cory and staff. I cannot wait to go back.

We have dined at course several times. You won't find better food anywhere. Service is first class and fun! Chef Cory is a remarkable chef and his menus are the perfect balance of refined yet fun. The restaurant is intimate with a beautiful open kitchen. I highly recommend dining at Course!

Odd location in a strip mall but once inside the restaurant that feeling leaves. The first few items (I am delayed in reviewing so not current menu) were excellent (2 were amazing) and the rest were ok. Wine list was sub par (not great selections) and expensive markups which ruined some of the enjoyment factor for me as I ended up getting something that was average at best. Probably not a big deal of wine isn't important part of dinner - or can just stick to hard alcohol instead. To be fair, I need to go back and give it one more shot as I really do want to love it and maybe an off night.

Decided to have celebrate a special day by having dinner at Course and that turned out to be a wonderful decision. We were greeted enthusiastically and congratulated on our special evening, which immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable. I was impressed not only by the food but also the attention to detail. Everyone was knowledgeable about each course that came out and also the wine chosen to pair with each course. The food was fun, visually captivating and delicious. We were there at the end of July for the summer menu and I can't wait to go back to see any is in store for the winter. The location was unexpected as it's in a strip mall that shared a park in. Lot with the movie theater so parking can be quite crowded, but once inside none of that was apparent and it didn't detract at all from enjoying the meal.

Listen, you just don't want to miss this place. The restaurant itself is beautiful, the food is not just good, it's a journey and the service is rock solid. The owner Cory is a friend I met during Covid and his in home dining literally saved us as it gave us the culinary experience we couldn't get when we were trapped in our homes. Cory has now taken this concept and opened Course. The Som Nick is extremely knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor and our server Dino was top notch. Seriously don't miss this place. If you are a goody you owe it to yourself to try it.
