Despite the restaurant being largely empty, we were treated like an inconvenience. The staff seemed preoccupied with whether or not we held a membership rather than providing service to a family with two hungry kids. After being seated and then ignored for an extended period while our waiter "checked" if we were allowed to be there, we decided to leave. A truly "family-friendly" establishment knows how to accommodate newcomers. We were happy to pay for a meal, but apparently, our business wasn't "exclusive" enough for them.

It's one of the few spots in North Scottsdale open late! We grabbed a seat on the patio and ordered some drinks. It was a Saturday night and pretty busy, but we were still able to walk in and grab a table without a problem. I stuck with the white wine which is always a good choice in the Arizona heat. I like that they have two pour size options. Our server was so sweet and fun and made the experience that much more enjoyable. I don't think I'll ever visit AZ without a trip to The Living Room!

The recommendations were spot on, exactly the kind of insider knowledge that makes you feel like you're in good hands.

Will absolutely be back!

The atmosphere was unique, the bartenders were genuinely engaging, and there was a real sense of community that made every visit memorable. It became my go-to spot to bring friends from out of town and every single person I brought absolutely loved it! Back then, the cocktails felt intentional and creative, not just rushed out for volume. The staff remembered regulars, conversations flowed naturally, and the whole place had this warm, eclectic energy that made you want to stay for hours. Even on busy nights, it somehow still felt personal. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, the vibe has changed quite a bit. The drinks just aren't as consistently good as they used to be, especially considering the prices now. Service feels far more transactional and impersonal, and the atmosphere that once made this place stand out has faded into something much more generic. It feels less like a neighborhood gem and more like a stop on a nightlife circuit.

I haven't had a drink I haven't liked, you can't go wrong with any of them. The 50 first dates has become my favorite, however. For food, the milk bread is a delicious starter. The chicken tenders are also amazing. Can't wait to go back!

We made our way down the stairs and the hostess was there ready to check us in. We didn't wait at all and got seated right away. Once seated it took a while for the server to come take our order. There was live music going on which kept us entertained for the time being. After about 15 minutes, she finally came over to greet us and take our drink orders. We ordered: 1 WILD STRAWBABY - Ocho Blanco Tequila, Bergamot, Strawberry, Pineapple, Lemon, Almond Milk $22 1 50 FIRST DATES - Bumbu Rum, Cascara, Brown Sugar Date Syrup, Coconut Milk, Cinnamon Sprinkle $22 1 BLUEBERRY MULE - Blueberry, Lime, Ginger Beer $13 The drinks didn't take too long and another bartender dropped them off. Water was never offered to us and was only given to us after we asked. All the other tables were given water once they were seated. Our drinks were good but we chose to just have one each and we left. The live music was great. The musician was playing the piano and kept it fun and upbeat. The inside is pretty cool and unique but service could've definitely been better though. *There's a $10 cover fee per person when there is live music*

Lots of ciders, too! Place is casual, chill and nice service. We ordered some beers and marionberry BBQ wings on happy hour-- these were SO GOOD. Nicely glazed, huge, with great flavor. Absolutely recommend! We also got an order of chicken teriyaki-- this was also excellent! Nicely charred with a tasty, spicy sauce. The rice was also super high quality. I was very impressed by both our food orders and the beer itself. Would absolutely return! I have my eyes on the mac and cheese next time.

The drinks and service were outstanding. Thanks Shayna and Anna! Both nights my partner just said what alcohol he likes and the vibe he was going for (e.g., a refreshing gin drink,) and asked if the bartender could make a drink based on that. The drinks were spot on. The food is good if you're looking for a light meal option. The downstairs restaurant, Proof, is better if you're looking for larger portions/more value.

Brought us a complimentary glass of bubbly to start the evening and didnt let up on service throughout. Prices are not what you expect from a restaurant of this class, plenty of food. Our table ordered pate de foie gras Lobster bisque Fillet (best she'd had) Pork belly Largest portion of Sea Bass Lamb chops Veggies, potato and spinach So much good food. If I, and I will... did it again. Here's what I would suggest to myself. pate de foie gras is so delicate, TX toast overwhelmed it. The table garlic bread was really good... ill ask for more of that toasted Brocolini, cooked more... was very hard to eat. But definitely 5 stars Ambience is great, space everywhere around, plenty of room between tables, live music in the bar filled the restaurant. Dishes cleaned away as soon as you were finished. Note, therea a beautiful patio and fireplace outside for the cooler weather. Call them to book, credit card needed and they used OpenTable. We were seated on time.

I'm gonna give three stars because the service was great at the bar and the server was attentive outside and quick although she didn't know the menu well. I ordered the cheese plate to split with my children and no one knew what was on it when I asked, but I was later informed that I got a tomato jelly and honey mustard as the sauces. To me a $30 cheese plate would not come with a container of honey mustard so I was not impressed. When I asked what cheeses were on it they told me there was 2 different cheddars. There was no way it was a cheddar it was a very soft cheese. I believe it was a goat cheese. The almonds were probably the best part of the whole platter. My husband got wings, which were very big. He enjoyed those and the sauce, and my other daughter got meatballs, which she enjoyed, but thought they were a little spicy, I find that usually when kids order things that are spicy servers will say just so you know that has a little bit of heat to it to which the waitress did not again, I don't think she was very knowledgeable on the menu in general .
