Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Paradise Valley

This was our second time here in the last month. Jordan, who was our bartender the first time remembered exactly what we had to drink a month ago!!! She is so nice and professional The Henry should be proud to have her as an ambassador! The first time was for brunch and it was amazing (the quiche is awesome!). This time was for lunch and it did not disappoint! The short rib ravioli and the club sandwich were both excellent! We can't wait to come back!

Excellent patio table in view if the large fireplace and under the mature oaks. We had brunch with old friends we haven’t seen in a while and the staff let us linger a very long time. My dining partners had brunchy items and seemed to like them; I had a Waldorf salad that was fresh but just okay. I wouldn’t recommend it—-overpriced and very little food. Overall we are glad we went to El Chorro for the ambiance and the beautiful setting,

Outstanding food, drinks, service, staff, atmosphere - the whole package! Highly recommend!

Liked the previous fish tacos better. ……."……………………

Let me tell you about an afternoon that reminded me why outdoor dining in Arizona can be a spiritual experience. Famous 48's patio - and I don't say this lightly - might be the finest al fresco setting in Scottsdale, where the desert light plays across tables like nature's own stage lighting. The BBQ Grilled Drumettes arrived in a presentation that would make a Memphis pitmaster weep with joy. Here was chicken that understood its purpose - impossibly moist, lacquered with sauce that demanded full surrender to the primal pleasure of eating with your hands. When a restaurant provides moist towelettes without being asked, you know they understand the sacred contract between kitchen and diner. The Whipped Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes presented an interesting dialogue about the eternal question of butter quantity. Were they over-enriched? Perhaps. But in an era where many restaurants seem afraid of fat, there's something almost defiant about this luxurious excess. What truly elevated the experience was our server, freshly returned from a road trip and radiating the kind of genuine enthusiasm for hospitality that's become increasingly rare. When staff express joy about returning to work, you know you're in an establishment that understands the true meaning of service.
