    This is one of the loveliest and most elegant -- yet hip restaurants we go to when we visit Scottsdale. We had a wonderful server and the manager stopped by during our meal to say hello. The bar is beautiful and we sat at a high top table for 4.The steak was prepared perfectly to our request. It was delicious and served on the wicked hot plates was amazing. It is expensive but well worth it when taking time to enjoy a bit of luxury! We'll be back!!!!!

    From the appetizer to the dessert, everything was delicious. Highly recommend the caesar salad. All portions are large enough to share or so what we did, and take home the extras!

    Outstanding. My server, Sean, made the experience at Americano unforgettable. The food was incredible, but it was Sean who brought a certain flair and unrelenting wit to the table that really engrained this night into my memory. His recommendations and genuine honesty perfectly guided me through the dinner, and I feel that my experience was specially curated for me specifically. The ambiance was dark, yet comfortable. The wine and whiskey selection was divine. Every menu item that graced my fork was perfectly executed in the kitchen and every bite felt heaven-sent. Chef Beau is an absolute legend for this one.
