    Zeppole with prosciutto, figs, and honey maple butter
    Michael V.

    Went here for Jazz night. Loved the two playing the jazz, it was peaceful and very elegant feeling. Classy. The espresso martini was the best I've had, and the porn star and spritz were tasty as well. Champagne wasn't my favorite but I'm not super familiar with champagne so maybe that's just me. We also got the zeppole and they were fantastic. Very salty prosciutto, but very yummy. Our waitress was extremely attentive which was refreshing. Only two complaints really. The jazz stopped for almost half an hour, which was right in the middle of our time slot, so that was a bit of a bummer since we missed most of the jazz while there. And also just the price for me. The drinks are $20-30/each, which makes sense for the location and I don't blame them, but just not ideal for the average joe such as myself. Definitely save it for special occasions.

    Great place

    This place was fun. The drinks were great and the bartenders and servers were great. Very cozy atmosphere. Have to go back fir the disco dancers!!

    Went there in a slow day, which works out perfectly. Service as a result was fast. The drinks were great, and the apps were good too. The espresso martini lacks the depth of flavor of the coffee. The cucumber are good, but not the most inspirational. It feels like plain cucumbers. Ambience wise it's great. Definitely would recommend for the setting.

    Elephante was busy so I popped over to Bar Bambino for a drink and food. The espresso martini was strong but good! I ordered some tuna bites and those were amazing. I want to come back again as the vibes & music are amazing. DJ was playing disco - house music. Super chill. Speakeasy.

    Checking out an experience @barbambino Fell in love with the dark, dim intimate setting. The music selection is perfect. Customer service was top notch. It's definitely worth dropping in for an evening cocktail and some lite bites. The zeppole and French fries with truffle aioli were a hit! The deconstructed Bellini comes with the peach flavored caviar bump.

    Went to check out Bar Bambino for a girl date after dinner at Elephante. First - ambiance in here is 9/10! Love the vibe with the disco ball, decor, low lit, and intimate. Our Elephante server mentioned there were dancers but our Bambino server clarified it's after 9:30/10pm so didn't get a chance to see them. Only reason I can't give 10/10 for ambiance is the seats are a little uncomfy. My friend sat on the booth and is taller, she mentioned she was uncomfortable for the arrangement. Drinks - 10/10. If you don't see something that speaks to you, ask your server and they'll customize whatever! Our server was very accommodating and knowledgeable with what they had, what they could make, etc.. She made excellent recommendations based on what we described we liked. Didn't try any of the food since we had already eaten dinner before, but I would definitely come back to the spot. Our server also mentioned that they are going to start having jazz nights and even magic nights in the fall!

    Went to Bar Bambino in Scottsdale and it definitely had a Total Vegas vibe. There was a girl performing with a cosmopolitan drink which added a fun energy to the night. The space felt more like a basement club with low ceilings, which made it cozy but also a bit tight. We wanted to stay, but they were asking for $100 per girl which didn't feel worth it for what the place offered, so we ended up leaving. If you're looking for a high energy, party small-club experience, this might be your scene, but it wasn't the right fit for us.

    bar bambino was veryyyy cute!! definitely a hip spot....prices were ridiculous though i got a negroni and it was $23 my friends got one of their waste management open drink specials w tequila. and then one of my girls also got their burger and fries and said it was really good! it looked great! this is definitely a "once in a while" spot...for the vibes and atmosphere.

    Such a cute spot but small! I would recommend getting a table if going. We were a walk in and there wasn't a good spot to stand. The atmosphere was so fun and elevated. They had Gogo dancers with disco ball heads! The drinks are good and strong.

    WOW WOW WOW! This is everything you want from a speakeasy. You check in at the front, right by the Elephante host stand then you are escorted into a 70's style lounge full of comfy seats and a giant disco ball. The cocktail offerings are similar to Elephantes and a snack mix is provided. We each had an espresso martini - specifically the Lavande - which is a DREAM of a drink. This is a must for a chill spot to get a drink!

    Paper plane and shrimp appetizer

    Found bar bambino on yelp and made reservations online for Sunday as Saturday was full. Once inside it was not busy and there was plenty of empty seats, could've got in without a reservation. The bar lounge area was dimly lit and very nice inside, 70's music was playing and not too loud so you're able to have a conversation. Our cocktail waitress Jayda was a beautiful tall gal who looked like a supermodel, she was friendly and attentive, did not rush us at all. Drinks were very good, had a paper plane and wife had a cannella martini, shrimp appetizer was pretty good, denos were a little pricey but it was worth it.

    Set up reservations on a Saturday and so glad we did. Place became busy quite quickly, not sure if they take walk-in's but wanted to play it save. Love the vibe in here. Glass top ceilings, wood and a semi dark ambience. Good music, comfy lounge chairs and a very attentive staff makes for an amazing speak easy bar. Definitely a classy feel, perfectly for Scottsdale. Drinks were grate, but I will say as other speak easy bars have gone, they rank about a 4 out of 5- delicious but a little pricey and not super strong for the price. Regardless I like how they provided some snacks which not too many bars do so that is definitely a plus! I would return again for a fun night or date night!

    It was a bit loud but on weekends they have a DJ and dancers / entertainment. I would recommend making a reservation before hand. Very fun and good food and drink!

    I had heard about Coach House from several friends and by some pure luck, I ended up at this dive…read morebar on Christmas. A Christmas miracle of sorts. Coach House is a year-round Christmas-themed bar. Located in Old Town Scottsdale, a block or two away from Fifth Avenue, there's a parking lot that was pretty full when I arrived. If you can't find a spot, you can find some free street parking close by (max of three hours). Ambiance (4/5): A lot of holiday pop-ups these days have entrance fees and expensive holiday-themed cocktails. You'll find none of that pretentiousness here. There's no entrance fee and no elaborate cocktails. The reason to visit is the multitude of Christmas lights that adorn both the patio and the indoor area. There are also a bunch of TVs which makes it a good spot to check out the game. It's mostly a patio bar, but there is some room indoors too. As well as Golden Tee and another game. Service (4.5/5): There's a bouncer checking your ID before you come in. From there, there's a larger bar inside where you can order a drink from one of two bartenders (at least when I was there) or a smaller outdoor bar with one bartender (at least when I was there). There's a cash discount (which I always appreciate). What that means is that they don't charge you tax if you pay by cash. While the bar was busy, the bartenders working were efficient. Food (N/A): Coach House doesn't serve food but they did have a Mexican food truck posted up on the patio while I was there. I didn't have any food during my visit though. Drinks (N/A): Since The Coach House is a dive bar, expect a full bar, but don't expect fancy cocktails. Ordering simple mixed drinks or beer is the way to go. They were out of Montucky Cold Snacks so I went with a Woodchuck Cider for $6. Affordable prices in the heart of Scottsdale... I'll take that any day of the week! Speaking of Christmas miracles, while I was sipping my beer on the patio, I saw two black SUVs pull up. A group of people came out of the cars and there was one person who I immediately recognized. Former NBA MVP and multiple NBA all-star Steve Nash! As a big basketball fan, having a brew at the same bar as a Phoenix Suns legend was pretty epic. On Christmas nonetheless.

    Cute dive bar in Scottsdale…read more I like to pop in around the holidays for some festive fun. The place is decorated throughout the winter months and is usually crowded. Seams to be a lot of regulars. I find both the bar staff and security staff to be friendly. Don't expect to find a nice wine or any but they have plenty of beer and can make most cocktails. They do have mini bottles of Cook's sparkling wine if you are looking for some bubbles but no prosecco. Hit it up for the holidays for the lights and fun crowds.

    We went to Outrider for Sunday brunch because the reviews claimed it was the most spectacular…read morerooftop spot and the best place for brunch. Honestly, I have no idea how it got those reviews. Maybe they're paid, I'm not sure, but based on my experience I would not go back. The biggest issue was the service. We arrived and were told to sit anywhere we wanted. After sitting down, we waited about 20 minutes and no one ever came to our table. No greeting, no water, nothing. Eventually I had to walk up to the bar and ask what the procedure was. Do we order at the bar? Do you have table service? No one could give a clear answer. They just kept saying, "If you want, you can order here." That's not the point. If I sit down at a restaurant, I expect someone to come to the table and explain how things work or take our order. If the system is that you order at the bar, just say that clearly so people know what to do. The drinks were also very mediocre. Nothing special at all. Honestly, they tasted like something you could throw together at home with soda, alcohol, and ice. The surprising part is that the food was actually phenomenal. The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing. The dishes were delicious and probably the best part of the entire experience. But great food alone isn't enough to make me return somewhere with poor service and forgettable drinks. My recommendation is don't waste your time on a Sunday brunch. There are plenty of other brunch spots with good food and good service.

    I checked out Outrider Rooftop Lounge for drinks on a Wednesday evening at 7:30 p.m. It was patio…read moreseason in Phoenix after all, so I had to take advantage of the opportunity. Located inside the Canopy Hotel in Scottsdale, I didn't have trouble finding free parking right outside of the hotel (I wonder if the same holds true on a Friday or Saturday night). After parking, take the elevator all the way up to get to the rooftop. Ambiance (4/5): Pretty awesome. I love a good rooftop. Outrider has a good deal of comfortable seating which is always a plus in my book. It's an open air bar, so there's also some seating by the bar which is semi-covered. There's even a firepit of sorts, but only one. Would be cool if they had more. The best part though? The view from the rooftop. You can see the mountains in the background and old town Scottsdale. I imagine that the absolute best time to stop by is during a sunset. Service (4/5): Our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive throughout. She did a great job making us feel like we were right at home. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior so I can't comment on their food. Drinks (4/5): Outrider has a nice selection of craft cocktails. While I was intrigued, I stuck to beer. Not a huge selection by any means, but there are a decent number of craft brews, including a handful I had never tried. The beers are fairly priced. If you're looking for a nice rooftop, Outrider is a great choice.
