Ocean 44 truly exceeded every expectation! What started as a simple night out for dinner turned into one of the most memorable dining experiences we’ve had. No birthday, anniversary, or special occasion, just the two of us enjoying a nice dinner together. From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional. Our server, Shane, was absolutely fantastic! He was attentive, patient, personable, and offered excellent recommendations throughout the evening. His level of service made us feel genuinely welcomed and appreciated. We also had the pleasure of meeting Kenzie, the manager, who personally stopped by our table to warmly welcome us and share a brief conversation. Such a thoughtful touch that speaks volumes about the hospitality at Ocean 44. But what truly blew us away was something completely unexpected. When we declined alcoholic beverages, we casually mentioned that we were expecting a baby. We thought nothing more of it. To our surprise, at the end of dinner, the team presented us with a beautiful gift bag containing a brand-new outfit for our baby on the way! We were absolutely speechless. This wasn’t a planned celebration or something we requested. It was simply a genuine act of kindness that meant more to us than they could imagine. As if that weren’t enough, we even received a courtesy phone call the following day to check on our dining experience! This is hospitality at its finest! From the front of the house to the kitchen and everyone working behind the scenes, the level of care, attention to detail, and genuine customer service was remarkable. The food was incredible, the atmosphere was beautiful, but the people are what truly made this experience unforgettable. A huge thank you to Shane, Kenzie, and the entire Ocean 44 team for going above and beyond. You didn’t just provide us with a great dinner; you created a memory we’ll carry with us as we prepare to welcome our little one. Amazing all across the board! You’ve earned customers for life!

We had such an incredible dinner at The Mission in Old Town Scottsdale last night! Everything from start to finish was top-notch. Our server, Marissa E., and her team were fantastic—so attentive and welcoming throughout the evening. We started with the table-side guacamole, which was a highlight, and the margaritas were absolutely phenomenal. For the main course, the 12-hour pork shoulder tacos were life-changing—so tender and perfectly seasoned. We’re already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend.

O live & Ivy is such a gem. I love the setting on the canal. The variety of seating options is great. The service is amazing. I always make this a part of my Scottsdale visit.

Kind staff delicious food. Everything we tried was excellent

Great service, very attentive with making sure we had everything we need for the table. Went for brunch and the table monkey bread was new and one of the best breakfast/brunch items I’ve ever had!
