    My friends and I have been going to dinner at a Different Pointe of View for years. We have been there for holidays and on various personal occasions like birthdays. We have always been 100 percent in agreement that all these celebrations were outstanding. We intend to go back as often as possible! I would add that we are also in 100 percent agreement that you have one of the most outstanding wait staffs in all of Phoenix! 😊😊

    Great food and a spectacular view of the valley. We decided to book reservations for Christmas 2024 Brunch and we were very impressed with the service & food. Unfortunately our reservations were booked the week of Christmas so the only option available was for outdoor seating. Winter in Phoenix can be a bit cold when dining outdoors so they were nice enough to provide blankets to guests seated outdoors, which we thought was excellent. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely dine sometime again.

    Absolutely perfect. My boyfriend and I are visiting from California and I wanted to bring him somewhere memorable for his birthday…this place made the cut!! We love the ambiance of the sultry atmosphere but even greater than that was the thoughtful and expertly orchestrated plates. Our server was so wonderful also. She was extremely knowledgeable and offered amazing suggestions. Couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!!
