Best Family Style Restaurants in Arcadia

The customer service here is excellent! My daughter graduated from Purdue and she was surprised when the server approached and congratulated her for her accomplishments! I ordered Espresso martini. Although the bar was backed up they were able to provide us an update on everything and a complimentary other Bev for waiting. We also asked for recommendations and they made server was knowledgeable. We ordered Stracchino which literally is amazing! Heated pano with honey cream on side so soft and smooth with a sweet kick from honey. Then we ordered Truffle Pasta which was delicious. Handmade noodles with butter sauce and truffle shavings. Finally we had the Pavlova Dessert. It literally melted in my mouth. The sauce was a bit tangy but it’s because the delicate white shell is sweet to balance. I may want to add a slight drizzle of chocolate sauce next time. Definitely will be back! I want to try the other pasta Vodka sauce next time and am addicted to the Stracchino. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

The food, service and ambiance were good. My guest had not been before and she was impressed.

We arrived early for our reservation and while we were waiting we found 2 seats at the bar. Since it was comfortable and the same menu was available we decided to eat at the bar. Good choice as Joe was our bartender and was very attentive. We started with the mussels and then I had Gnocchi, which was excellent and my wife had Gigli, also very good. We finished with Tiramisu, which was killer good. Overall a very enjoyable Christmas Day dinner.

We celebrated my husband’s birthday on Christmas Eve. Everything was wonderful. We had the branzino fish. It was prepared exceptional. Our waitress was very efficient and endearing. The last thing I would mention is the noise level. So many restaurants in Scottsdale play very loud music which brings up the level of sound to make it unable to talk to someone sitting right next to you. Ocean 44 was perfect. We could slightly hear the music but enjoyed talking to each other

Food for five persons were very good with great services and hospitality.We ate our dinner at five pm and the outdoor dining area were pretty dark as there are no ceiling lights but do have small table LED light lamps and under bench lighting. Some of us had hard hard time reading the menus with low lights but was managed somehow. We will go there again with better daylights.
