Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Phoenix

This was a really good experience my first time being there it was really busy for a Saturday of course that probably why the noise level was high. We were also sat next to a birthday dinner , but we didn’t mind at all!. The food and drinks made up for everything. They gave us special food that they were just putting on the menu and a complementary dessert. The waiter Luke was absolutely amazing , barely had to wait on anything everybody was very nice!! 1000/10 will be recommending to everybody I know! Can’t wait to come back !! 

Food was very good. Though the service of the waiter was the real reason for this review. This is a very spendy place to eat. Bill was over $800 for just my wife and myself and we didn't eat that much food. Service by the waiter was phenomenal. Very knowledgeable and very attentive to our needs and requests. That really made the evening special. The food was very good, though not really worth the cost. Really was the waiter.

Cafe Monarch was a outstanding experience. Starting with free valet parking, the restaurant has a peaceful fountain by a French door entrance. The hostess greeted us kindly and showed us to our seats at the bar. We prefer bar seating as we can sit side-by-side and have a more personal experience with the staff. The bar has an amazing assortment of liquor including full ranges of gin, vodka, whiskies and scotches and accompaniments. Our two bar tenders were very friendly without being intrusive. They let us get settled in with complementary bubbles and explained the dinner menu. The menu is a Prix Fix offering with a choice of either four or eight courses. The quantity of food on the two menus is nearly the same, so we chose the eight course dinner with more small bite choices on offer. As we needed to make modifications due to gluten and caviar allergies, the kitchen did an excellent job of adjusting the courses. We had chefs treat oyster, the autumn soup; sesame tuna; shrimp with grilled pineapple, avocado and radish; diver scallop with squash and pine nuts; a pleasant palate cleanser with lemon sorbet, berries and hibiscus; pork belly with apple, current, peppers and goat cheese; lamb chops with carrot, spinach and brioche; and A5 Wagyu filet mignon and short rib, bell pepper, and broccolini. Desert was a Chocolate cream with cookie. We had the Petite Fours with coffee and tea. At $290 it was a worthwhile and outstanding feast. We are planning to return to Cafe Monarch when next in Phoenix.

A "one of it's kind" dining experience with a energetic vibe, excellent food and drinks, and a relaxed atmosphere when enjoying time with family and friends.
