jade bar

Pippo (our bartender) was incredible, the service was 10/10. His energy was so inviting and lively!! The place itself is so nice. It has live plants, comfortable seating, but still a “home town” bar kind of vibe. Great mix of modern, and old fashioned. We will definitely be back.

Terrific bar with great views. The cocktails are very good as is the food. A very good happy hour. The staff is very friendly as well.

We didn't stay at the resort. We ate dinner elsewhere and came here for cocktails. Haven't been here in a while. The atmosphere in the bar is very nice. Nice view of outside from a big window you look out at. Service was average, but drinks were good. People were very friendly. Too bad it was raining because they have a very nice outdoor space. We enjoyed ourselves.

I have been coming here for years and had loved it, but in recent years did not have a good experience. I mentioned this to their new manager named Brady when he started and let him know about the service challenges we were having with unresponsive staff he asked that we give another chance. We returned this past week and must say — things were different and he has made some really great changes. Our experience this past time was better than ever with not only the food, but really responsive and kind staff. Thank you to the resort for hiring someone with experience in this business in great customer service!

Food is amazing same food as elements restaurant. Service was also wonderful and so were the drinks \. Sunset is to die for but gotta go see it from the restaurant pool area

Met some people here on a Saturday morning. I have never been her before, it was easy to find and valet was fantastic. There were so many things to love about the experience. First, the views were gorgeous. Surrounded by mountains, ON a mountain you could see far and wide. Second, the drinks and food were delicious. Third, the service was spectacular and top notch. Lastly though, the prices do reflect all of this so bring your no-limit credit card. 😉

Great spot for a drink with a view! Stopped in for happy hour and enjoy the atmosphere. Staff were friendly as well.

Amazing evening here at Jade Bar. Great cocktails (Hanzo is tremendous) and food (lobster bisque, burger, and shrimp cocktail off the charts). Best thing of all: our waitress. Made everything better! But didn’t get her name:(

WOW! Now this place is literally and figuratively a hidden gem!! We wanted to dine at the connecting restaurant and while waiting, discovered this bar! there's a BEAUTIFUL circular view of the mountains and sunset if you time it right. The golden hour there is unreal - great for the girls who are looking for those golden hour pictures as there is a lot of area to walk around the property and get some good shots! There is also a spot to sit outside if there is no room inside, and honestly we preferred it outside because you had a great view of the sunest with a gentle breeze. The servers were quick to check on us even though we were seated outside.

Views views views!!! If u're looking for a chic vibe restaurant bar with gorgeous views, u found it!!! Jade Bar is a gem! I've only had a couple of appetizers here, and I can't say that they were fabulous, as I ordered some pretty plain Jane stuff. The Housemade chips and onion dip, as well as the Vegetable crudite were ok. I wished the dips for both those appetizers had more flavor and kick to them, but, knowing that I ordered some pretty unflavorful dishes, I'll quit my whining. On the other hand, the cocktail was divine! The Lost Dutchman was so tasty & refreshing!! Don't be shy! U can totally eat the flowers that are elegantly decorated in ur cocktail!! Service was great! Our server came by to check on us just the right amount of times!! Price is on the high side, but u're paying for the stunning views as well as u're in paradise valley!!! Go ahead and splurge!!!

Incredible views! We had a reservation at Elements and decided to grab a cocktail beforehand. When I tell you Jade Bar has some of the most exquisite views of Paradise Valley, I am not lying. The drinks were beautifully made and were delicious. I LOVED The Mekong cocktail and had a few of them! I highly recommend this bar and will definitely return for brunch!

Cool place with a great view. If you're in the area, stop in and grab a drink. They have a small menu as well.

What a beautiful place to celebrate New Year's Eve or any other time of the year! We celebrated Nee Years Eve, we had excellent service. Bottle service and the staff treated us very well. All the people around us had great vibes at the Jade bar

Taken all the favorites off the menu (Mekong cocktail and the Korean fried chicken sandwich). Only reason to go is the view. Service is still great.

Tried this place for a sunset happy hour. Restaurant has a great view perched on top of an overlook. Can't really see the sun at as the sun set was left of the view when we were there but we did outside and watch from a different angle. Wry nice upscale place with great service. Happy hour prices were just a few dollars off so nothings special like 2 for ones but the food quality was good. I recommend the vegetable hummus platter Drinks were god as well. Very beautiful setting worth a try. I recommend parking in the self park and walking up as it's nice to see the place.

Let's talk about views and cocktails! The Jade bar is always a solid choice at the sanctuary resort. It's a really cool bar with views of paradise valley. Very romantic and great spot for a date night or time to catch up with a friend. The service and staff are fantastic!

Had an enjoyable evening grabbing some refreshing non alcoholic drinks to start and a cocktail while watching the sunset views. The bartender came to our table and he was super helpful with a great attitude! However, there was no passion fruit to make any kind of drink, disappointing. Sam our server was very attentive although came across as may have been disappointed that we didn't order more. It was a short visit this time, we didn't need much. The Marrakech cocktail was fabulously on point.

I love this place! My husband and I had our after party from our wedding here 8 years ago and it was fabulous! We also stayed at the resort a couple of nights before heading out to our honeymoon! We decided to come back and celebrate where it all started! We both had cheeseburgers and they didn't disappoint! I had the Lost Dutchman for a cocktail and it was delicious! I didn't care for the fries--over cooked--but the views made up for it!!

The Jade is the bomb for a good energy, sexy sunset eve out. Sunday was the perfect day as bottles of wine were half-off. While I feel some guilt day-drinking, it disappeared when the sun went down and the snacks (fries, and a shrimp cocktail) appeared. Our server, Samantha, was on-game, helpful, and personable. She checked in often, even when we adjourned to be near the outdoor fireplace. While Jade Bar is tops in atmosphere, food, and service, there are a couple of areas of improvement. Table/chair height at booths near window. The seating is either too low, or table too high. I feel like a child sitting at a giant table. I could slide the food from the table top directly into my mouth. Cut the table post, or hand out adult booster seats. Haha. Bar seating is always best in my opinion. Fireplace seating could be optimized (increased revenue). The current four seat semicircle facing the fireplace could be elongated outward with coffee table, to double capacity. Missed revenue opportunity when couple was seated and empty seats occupied w handbag, and dog.

Took my mother and sister here for drinks the night they got in. We made it for sunset and found the table right next to the fire. We started off with drinks. The Lost Dutchman tasted even better than it looked, and it was a good looking drink. The French Spy was not as sweet, but also very good. I went with Weller bourbon (a bit pricey but so worth it!). We got a second round of drinks and decided to order some snacks. We ordered the truffle Parmesan fries and the vegetable crudite. The fries were delicious and not too much truffle. The hummus was a generous portion and had a variety of fresh veggies for dipping. Overall love this place and will be going back, bringing all of our visitors here for a drink and amazing views.

Views, service, drinks and live music were excellent! Our server even brought us a complimentary champagne toast when we mentioned it was our anniversary. Nice touch! But, we were not impressed with the food. Had chicken quesadillas and Caesar salad for apps and it was very mediocre. I'd come here again for everything but the food.

I am a disabled black female Air Force veteran and was a first responder at the Pentagon during 9/11. I have resided in Scottsdale/Paradise Valley area for 3 years now and I have visited the Sanctuary Spa on many occasions and have dined at the Elements restaurant as well. I find both the restaurant and the spa to be quite calming and serene and have always felt welcomed as a single black female. I saw the Jade Bar on IG a few weeks ago and decided since I had a light day that I would go for a visit. I am a foodie at heart and love dining out. I entered the bar around 2:30 pm on 9/28/23, upon entering, I immediately went to the bar and asked a female bartender if the small tables near the window were open and she said yes and that she would send someone right over to take my order. The place was quite empty with exception of a small party of patrons, all male eating and chatting as I walked over to my table which was directly behind them. There was another woman dining near the front door entrance. I saw a waiter working with the table of gentlemen that sat at the table behind me but never came over to me. 15 minutes went by, and no one came over to ask if I even wanted water. I began to wonder what the delay was since the place was fairly empty. Shortly after that thought, a Caucasian woman came in and sat at a table beside mine, before she could barely get her legs under her table, a waiter approached and gave her water and asked for her drink order. He then turned and started to walk toward the bar, I immediately called him over and asked if I could place an order, he immediately stated that he didn't see me sitting there. To put this in perspective, coming from the kitchen, he most likely saw me before he saw the lady that sat at the table beside me. I am a black female (the only one in the bar) short pixie cut AND I had on a mustard-colored outfit that consisted of leggings, top and long duster. He said he was sorry and proceeded to ask for my order. I was taken aback because I was literally sitting at the table beside the lady whose order he had just took. I asked him how was it possible that I had been in there for 15 mins and had to call him over so I could a drink? He then stated that it had been a busy day, and he was in the kitchen telling his boss that he THINKS he has cancer. I told him I was sorry to hear that but somehow, he had managed to take the order of the woman beside and she hadn't been there for 5 minutes. He offered to take care of my drink overlooking the optics of it all. I asked him did he know how it feels to feel discriminated against due to the color of your skin without provoking any action at all other than coming into an establishment and he proceeded to tell me about how he grew up in Louisiana, I didn't even listen to the story. I later spoke with Paul Carter, Director of Food & Beverage and expressed my concerns. I am never one to pull the race card however, this felt like deliberate racism to me at its finest. It was a very uncomfortable dining experience for the remaining time I was there and very disheartening that this type of behavior still goes on. The lady that sat at the table beside me came over and apologized because she witnessed the conversation and noticed she was served as soon as she arrived. She said she noticed me as soon as she came in because she admired my outfit but yet the waiter said he didn't notice me sitting there waiting for service. I don't expect everyone to understand this review, however, I hope it reaches the audience that needs to hear it. Regardless of race, we should all be treated fairly and feel welcomed wherever we choose to dine.

Stopped by here on a Sunday afternoon for a cocktail and dessert to enjoy the beautiful view of the property. It was busy in the bar lounge, however we got lucky and snagged the last couch space for the two of us. It took a ridiculously long time for our server to take our orders, I had to ask the busser to grab our server for us twice. After we received our drink and dessert, i had to ask the busser again to grab our server so we could pay and leave. The server seem to be attentive with the other guest around us, but rarely check in on us.

Well, I wish I can write more... The location seems very nice enough, I would go so far to say the drive to the location is part of the experience. There was an rather intimidating security guy there at the front gate asking why was I there. I just don't feel like I needed to be interrogated before going to a bar so I turned around and left. Maybe I am just an Average Joe and not fitting to be part this upscale place, but who knows.

The valet guys were very nice. We wanted to sit in the lounge but couldn't find room. No one there even looked at us much less with a greeting or a smile. They had plenty of time but just looked away as if we weren't even there. We passed by the dining room and were greeted nicely but weren't there to eat dinner. We just wanted a couple of drinks and some appetizers.

Good service, and food is ok but the atmosphere makes up for the average food. The views are the best in the valley. I love this place. Sometimes they have music.

Amazing brunch, good service, and spectacular paradise valley 360 views. I stayed at the sanctuary hotel on premises and had lunch, dinner and breakfast the next day there. The food and drinks are really good, I had the fried egg rice for breakfast, with the thick cut bacon was to die for. Bellinis Mimosas and some monkey bread. For lunch we split the wagyu burger and tequila drinks. At night we picked Rockefeller oysters, ginger soup and wagyu dumplings, for main course we had the sea bass and a New York steak. Good vibe and they have live music. Love it for a weekend gateway

Worst service ever. Sat there for 30 minutes waiting for a drink. Our server came by 4 times and kept telling us she was working on it.

A great spot for drinks with amazing views both day and night. Every drink we ordered was spectacular and delicious. The food is also amazing, and pretty large portions. The crudite comes in a gigantic portion and all veggies were very fresh. Truffle fries are to die for and are nice and crispy thick cut pieces. But the best part was our server, Aspen. We came in all at one with a ten top and she took great care of us with a genuine smile the whole time. She even remembered some names and created great conversation. She's a great addition to your team and look forward to coming back for a happy hour soon!

The bar has a wall of windows with a beautiful view! The staff treated us like royalty. It's located in the Sanctuary Camelback resort which has lush landscaping. The drinks were good as were the appetizers. Highly recommend!

Great service. Smooth old fashioneds. solid happy hour lost with good names by the glass - score the ZD pinot. The food is tasty and lite. atmosphere is classy. this is the real deal.

Stopped by with friends to have a drink after dinner. Great place to have a drink with friends and relax. Nice ambience and good service.

We always go here for cocktails before Elements. The cocktails are always uniquely crafted and elegantly presented. The clientele are resort casual to dressy. The views are 1 of a kind.

Ahh! We came here last Christmas in 2020 on recommendation from a local who lived nearby. We had an amazing time that year. All of the food back then, was on the happy hour menu. We came in July 2021, and only the Jade burger was on the food list for happy hour. We came today, and no food was on the happy hour menu, only drinks. We had a good time regardless. We both got the Jade burger. Today, the bread was dry, we asked for medium rare and got well done burgers, it was not as good as we had remembered the other two times. Maybe they taste better when they are discounted... ? The view at the Jade Bar, is so amazing, and it truly makes this place a place to visit, even if all you get are the drinks.

Best place to take someone special on a special occasion. Zauron is an excellent tender and the salmon was the best I have ever had . Zauron was who we let order for us and I recommend you do the same .

We went to dinner at elements first and enjoyed drinks afterwards. We definitely need to come back at sunset and enjoy the view as this picturesque backdrop could be one of the best bar views in town. If you have the time to enjoy a beautiful drive a beautiful spouse great drinks and dinner this location has it all.

Cute little cocktail bar love the view great after dinner spot you can also order a desert and sit on the patio when the weather is nice

Elements Or The Sanctuary as it has been affectionately know for decades, is the closest thing to an exclusive private club / resort that Scottdale has to offer other than the Paradise Valley Country Club. The restaurant is always consistent among the locals and visitors alike. Offering great service, food and unparalleled views of the valley. The Jade Bar is the elegant lively casual accompanying restaurant/ bar when you want to have a quick bite or drink while enjoying the ambience of The Sanctuary. We Wanted a quick bite for lunch on Easter Sunday. The place was nicely attended with many couples and families elegantly dress for Easter. There was live guitar music which was a bit loud. But upon discussing with management concerning the volume, they politely told the musician to turn it down. Afterwards everyone could finally hear themselves talking and enjoying each other more. This is really the only criticism in what is a perfectly enjoyable experience here. Menu options are good and the food is delicious.

Went for happy hour (after 4pm) and select drinks were only $10! The food was also delicious (I wish there were food for happy hour though) and we had an amazing view on the outside patio. The waitresses and waiters were also attentive and gave great service. Everything was fantastic.

Excellent location for a drink and watching the sunset. I recommend the blood orange vodka cocktail

The food and drinks were very good. Came here for happy hour and tried most of the hh menu. Everything was very good, but my dad had been drinking titos soda and the last drink he got was casamigos soda. He is allergic to agave and had one sip. The bartender fixed his drink, but our server never acknowledged the mistake and our bill still showed the more expensive casamigos.

Wonderful drinks and spectacular views of the sunset! The menu was so creative and also very fresh and tasty!

The cocktails are tasty and the ambiance is great. You can look out over the city, enjoy a fire and they'll even bring you a blanket if you're cold. A hidden gem. It also benefits from the "dark sky" rules in the area that allow you to see the stars at night. Great place to begin or end a date. We've eaten at The Sanctuary (the restaurant at the same hotel) once and it was just as lovely.

Came here after a really relaxing spa day, and chaos ensued. When we arrived there were only two other people seated at the bar and two tables. Maybe two other tables joined throughout the two hours we were there. We were greeted kindly by the bar tender who was responsible for the entire bar area and restaurant drinks. It quickly became obvious that he was in over his head. The first sign of trouble was huffing and puffing around the bar, forgetting the alcohol in one of the cocktails. We had to remind him of our order multiple times, and struggled to get another round of drinks. When our food came, I asked the food runner for share plates and a side of dressing, to which he responded "I'll get your server." Needless to say we had to ask the bar tender five minutes later. Overall, the bar tender's constant obvious exclamations of disdain for the lack of support he had made this dining experience very poor. $200 later and we left far more stressed than we entered. One star food, one star cocktails, one star, the view. Definitely come here BEFORE your spa day.

Jade Bar is a hidden gem! If you haven't been to Sanctuary at Camelback, you really must go! The Jade Bar has nice live music and a really swanky intimate feel with cozy groupings of comfortable seating. The views are spectacular, the lighting is low for a nice Happy Hour or date night. Lots of people don't know about this place and if you are looking for a great alternative to the typical noisy bars, this is the place for you!!

Super Loud. Best cheeseburger and fries I ever had. Jasmine was the greatest waitress, made us move away from the loud section without us even asking.

Great food with an amazing view of Paradise Valley. Don't pass on the opportunity to have Ken make you specialty cocktail!

Views are amazing, our Sunday was amazing. The gentlemen playing his acoustic guitar just added to the experience.

I love this place! Great food, great drinks and a beautiful view. The service was very good and prompt as well

AWESOME!!! Atmosphere, service & food were all amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience dining there

Our server Sam was absolutely amazing and the food and drinks were excellent. The squash soup and pasta with lobster were both delicious.

Ice in the urinals. Unreal service. Beautiful views. If you have enough drinks and play your cards right, free hot tub sesh at the end as well. cheers.

Unbelievable, the view the cocktails were fantastic. Our server Charo, I may have this wrong but she was great and very attentive. I had the best Bacardi 8 "Ocho" Manhattan ever! Go early, stay for dinner and take in the sunset.

Ambiance, service, and views 10/10. Between the casual open seating of the Jade bar to the Formal seating at Elements you cannot go wrong!

Pretty disappointed. Came here for happy hour (like we always do) and the food we always get- $9 butter burger special- was 3x the amount it usually is. 2 appetizers and one burger with no alcohol $100 tab- we won't be back. Shame bc the view is incredible.

Most of my time while in Phoenix/Scottsdale I was looking at Camelback Mountain. While checking out the Sanctuary resort, I was able to see the beautiful city while on Camelback Mountain. Sooooooo pretty! Seriously. I arrived to check out their restaurant/bar right at sunset and it was an absolutely gorgeous view. My visit wasn't very long, unfortunately. It was a quick stop en route to dinner but we were able to hang out long enough for a drink. As food was being served, my eyes were in awe with how delicious everything looked. My brown derby cocktail was delicious but what really made this experience great was the views sitting atop the mountain. There was live music. The look was contemporary. The vibe was chic. On top of all the beautiful people, you can see the pool, part of the city, and the sunset. Rumor has it a lot of celebrities come to Sanctuary/Jade Bar... if that's your thing to see them out and about. As nice as this place was, I can see why.

Super cool spot to take in a beautiful sunset or to enjoy someone's company for a night out. Great food and drinks! Probably not quite a 5 star, more like a 4.5. But since it's definitely better than a 4 star and there are no half stars, I'm going with five stars!
