I really wish I could give FNB more than 5 stars. The upscale but casual atmosphere is perfect. Our waiter had that combination of being laid back but helpful and attentive and only asking once "Is everything OK?" Of course the food was the superstar. Vegetables were so fresh and well seasoned and the watermelon salad was one of the best dishes I have ever experienced but everything was delicious and perfectly prepared. read more

I had the opportunity to try this James Beard winning spot in Scottsdale, AZ, and it was quite an experience The restaurant itself is almost a restored work of art. The dining area is fairly cozy in that there aren't that many tables. The dim lighting makes this a great date-night spot The staff were professional and friendly enough. We were given time to pursue the menu, and all of our questions were answered. The dishes are fairly hearty, and make good options for sharing. The wine list is fairly extensive, and you will more than likely want a glass or two or more with your meal Charleen Badman (one of the chefs) is considered the "veggie whisperer," for the amazing ways she is able to celebrate and prepare locally grown produce, and I will say we were very impressed. All the dishes were gorgeously plated, and they tasted incredible We had a couple mishaps with our order, but all-in-all is was a lovely dining experience Some tips: You will definitely want to get a reservation. This is a highly sought after location, there are limited seats, and they are only open 5pm-10pm Tuesday through Saturday Try as many dishes you can, and if you're part of a group consider sharing family style Cheers! read more

If you're looking for a place in Scottsdale that reminds you how exciting vegetables and thoughtful cooking can be, FnB absolutely delivers. We came in for dinner and were advised to order 3-4 dishes for two people, which at first sounded like a lot--but after seeing the menu we quickly understood why. Everything is designed to share, and each dish feels intentional and layered. The snow peas completely surprised me. The lemon had this deep caramelized quality that almost made me pause and ask, what exactly am I tasting? The miso created a savory richness that balanced the brightness of the citrus in a way that felt totally new to me. It's the kind of flavor that sticks with you and immediately makes you wish you could eat it every day. Next was the fresh pasta with roasted carrots, bacon, and goat cheese, and it was pure comfort without feeling heavy. The goat cheese was creamy rather than sharp, which made the dish feel decadent but balanced. And oddly enough, the roasted carrots ended up being my favorite part--they added this subtle sweetness that tied everything together beautifully. We almost skipped the braised chicken leg and thigh with fennel, Sicilian sausage, and heirloom beans because we thought it might be difficult to cut and share at the table. That concern disappeared instantly. The chicken literally fell apart the second the fork touched it--no knife needed. The beans and chard underneath were the real drivers of the dish though: hearty, flavorful, and a perfect complement to the richness of the chicken. It felt like the kind of dish that's rustic but executed at a very high level. One helpful tip: three dishes was more than enough for two people. The dishes we ordered were extremely hearty and honestly could have fed three to four people, especially if you're planning to save room for dessert. Unfortunately we were so full (and happy) that we had to take some food to go and skip dessert this time--but after this meal, I'm already looking forward to coming back just to see what's on that dessert menu. FnB is the kind of place where the ingredients shine, the flavors surprise you, and every dish feels thoughtful. Definitely a spot I'll be returning to. The space has a relaxed, neighborhood feel--unpretentious but clearly focused on great food and a great dining experience. Also a 10/10 cup of hot water read more

Always a good experience at FnB! Went for a casual birthday celebration and Chad made it all the more special with his uncanny recall of all names and faces within the mix of patrons. Thanks for your hospitality, Chad! FnB is the perfect spot for sharing is caring - check out the roasted chicken if offered and the summer squash! Both were fabulous as was the Pinot Noir and the Blanc de Blanc. Highly recommend the butterscotch pudding to finish off the meal. read more

Really unique dining experience with an impressive wine list and great cocktails. The chicken spring rolls and smoked salmon appetizers were delicious. That may be the best salmon dish I've ever had in my life! The halibut main course was a little bland, but man, that salmon more than made up for it. There was quite a bit of a wait between the appetizers and entrees, but the drinks & ambiance were nice, so I didn't mind too much. read more

The place was disgusting. It looked like it hadn't been dusted in years. plates hanging on the walls chandelier everything in the bathroom overall it's pretty dusty. The food tasted wonderful. I hope that it was clean. Our server was great. She was very attentive, young man that gave people water. He never let it run out. read more

Chad is a very talented and personable bartender and made us great cocktails! We also had one of the fab apps that was delicious! Very inventive things they do with veggies here! We would have had dinner here but their reservations system charges you to make a resy and while it's only 2-3 dollars it's the principal that I would have to pay money for them to let me set a time for me to come patronize their restaurant. I took off one star for that issue and had dinner elsewhere. read more

I reviewed 1,300 restaurants on this site and out of the gate this was easily the best dining experience I have had in this decade. Borris, our waiter, is the most experienced waitstaff who curated what became the most memorable of meals. We ended up having 3 dishes from the vegan side and two from the meat side. Standout stars were the roasted carrots, the warm citrus salad, and the pasta: best we have ever had. A wonderful wine list with true depth, including a rose from Arizona. Can't say enough great things about here. read more

As soon as you enter the Craftsman Courtyard and walk into FnB, it feels like an oasis from the Scottsdale traffic, shops and galleries. This boutique and neighborhood style restaurant adds to the ambiance. The menu changes seasonally. There were 13 appetizers and only 4 entrees. The menu names were quite unique so we had to ask our server German A (I believe that was his name) for assistance. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The server's assistant was also attentive by constantly refilling our water. We decided to order 5 appetizers and they were large enough to share among the three of us. We ordered the Ajapsandali, Malawach, Asian Pear & Butternut Squash, Lamb Riblets and Lobster Mushroom Frittata. They were all delicious especially the Frittata. read more

Went here for a birthday celebration and had a really wonderful experience. We got there 5 minutes early and were seated immediately by a very friendly host. The inside of the restaurant is really cool with huge stained glass windows and interesting decor. We ordered a bunch of food to share as a table. We definitely over ordered but everything was delicious. To start we got the naan, kale falafel, the watermelon salad, and salmonrejo. We split that between the four of us and it was so good! The naan and red pepper spread was amazing! Then we split the lobster and mushroom frittata, smoked chicken thighs, and the pasta dish. My favorite dish of the night was the chicken thighs, which were smoky and delicious! The desserts were a chocolate pecan tart and semolina cake with blueberries. Overall great experience and we will be back again! read more

Went here for a joint birthday dinner celebration after a friend recommended it as their favorite restaurant. I fully agree with their assessment! The whole experience at FnB was amazing, from the diverse menu to the friendly and knowledgeable services. Everything here is local to Arizona and paired with Arizona wine. The portions are filling, even for the appetizer sections. The menu changes seasonally as well. We loved the delicate squash, potato cauliflower soup, spicy broccoli, and the pork. Everything was so delicious. Don't skip the bread either, they bring out a huge plate of bread from Barrio (top bakery in Tucson) and anything you don't finish can easily be brought home. Would have loved to try dessert but we were too full from everything else. read more

My friends and I went to Scottsdale for a girls' weekend, and we were excited to try FnB and their vegetable-forward menu. We ordered a bunch of different entrees, including Mexican street carrots, kohlrabi with apple, fava beans and the pesto risotto. I was adamant about getting something a little larger / more filling, and they were all so happy that we got the pesto risotto since it was delicious. We had the lemon cake for dessert which was tasty without being too heavy or rich. The only downside about the location is that for some reason, the acoustics are a little tough and it can get loud very quickly. read more

I have no idea how I haven't posted about this restaurant yet but, it is one of the best restaurants in Scottsdale! This restaurant always has inventive, beautiful, fresh dishes. It is an amazing spot for people that are wanting to experience something intriguing and different for the usual palette. Also, if you are vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian this is a great choice, but they also have some incredible meat dishes as well.! I do not have enough good things to say about this restaurant. Check it out when you are in old town and especially if you have company from out of town and you really want to allow them. It's also so lovely to walk around old town checking out some of the galleries and having fun little cocktails along the way treat yourself.! read more

Really nice dinner here with my sister on a Friday evening in May. We did make a reservation, but there were some open seats inside while we were there. Love that they keep the menu new and fresh, and that there were a lot of vegetarian options. We split 2 salads and a fish dish and that was the perfect amount of food for the 2 of us (and a glass of wine). We really enjoyed everything we ate and the service was very good. read more

Every dish we had here was amazing! I really love how vegetarian forward the menu is, and even the meat options were amazing! We got a chicken dish as well as the dishes pictured and the meat was so tender! The drinks were also amazing, I'd like to come back and go to the bar sometime. The waitress and hostess were so friendly and sweet. Great experience read more

FIVE STARS ALL AROUND! The service was absolutely amazing - the owner's wife was so friendly and wonderful. I was climbing down from Camelback Mountain (true story) and wasn't going to be able to make my reservation time so I called (yes, from the top of the mountain...) and she was so sweet and accommodating. Since I was eating by myself, she also offered to let me order half-portions of some of the dishes (if it was possible to split them). The place is pretty casual but very cute and was well-occupied for a Tuesday night. Note: you do have to put a deposit down when you make a reservation and they'll refund it. The pasta OMG. It was so so so good! Perfectly al dente and the sauce was YUM. The mozzarella was a little hard to pull apart so I might recommend ricotta or burrata instead (although I'm not a huge fan of mozzarella in general so I'm a bit biased). The beefsteak tomato appetizer was on point! It did have a strong coriander taste in some places so just be aware if you're not partial to that taste. read more

Went to FnB a second time - this time not just for dessert and drinks - and they delivered! Every dish was super delicious - and the dessert and drinks were great again! Highly recommend FnB! read more

- Pickled shrimp: 3/5 similar to a shrimp salad with celery, onions, parsley served with crackers, a bit sour for my taste - Tilefish w sweet corns, hazelnuts, pears: 4/5 great texture of the fish, the corn bed was abundant in texture and went well with the fish - Peruvian chicken thigh w chili sauce, melon etc: 5/5 crispy, flavorful chicken thigh, delicious. I've never had chicken thigh with fruits like melon before. quite interesting but it paired quite well. Overall food is 4/5 The reason I gave them only 3 stars was because of our table being under an open staircase... While we ate, there are people going up and down the open staircases with our food just 2-3 feet below it! It's disgusting thinking about if any dirt from their shoes could have fallen to our food. I lost the appetite then... read more

The food here was very good. The menu changes regularly so the dishes never stay the same. The service was really good as well. I love a vegetarian forward menu. However, when we went in March, we had a vegan friend in our group and the menu definitely had less vegan options than usual. They could adjust the dishes but I wish they had a few more designated vegan plates. read more

We ate dinner here on NYE and had just a lovely experience. The food was delicious and seemed to only contain the freshest ingredients. The pasta with butternut and lentils was one of my favorite pasta dishes I've had. Everything is veggie forward which I absolutely loved. The service was wonderful. The ambiance is homey and intimate, but upscale. You feel like the chef is cooking only for you. Would highly recommend! read more

We came here with friends on the recommendation of a coworker. All four of us loved the dinner and appreciated the suggestion to try it out. We started with the shaved summer squash with basil pesto, Parmesan and pepitas. It was a light and delicious dish. Our server shared how they flew in their salmon from Alaska so I thought it was worth a try. It was delicious and the portion was generous. It was perfectly cooked with great flavor. My husband went with the niman ranch ribeye which had quite the presentation on the plate. My husband had no trouble finishing the dish as the meat was prepared perfectly with great flavor. The restaurant is on the small side so we'd recommend having reservations. Recognizing they change up the menu during the year it gives you more reason to return often. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed dinner here a few weeks ago! As an omnivore who loves vegetables, I was enchanted by the options and flavors on our table. Service was incredibly warm and kind, and the decor was rustic and inviting. Please stop by if you are in the area!! read more

The service was lovely, and the wine selection was great. The food was good, but not outstanding, and I felt like everything was just kind of missing something... hard to put my finger on it. I would come back and give it another shot though, especially since it was so easy to make a reservation. read more

FnB is a wonderfully creative restaurant that takes the farm-to-table approach to a whole new high-quality level. Dishes are so tasty, service was on point, and the place is very pretty and upscale. Overall, it was a great little discovery for us. They even welcomed our baby, which is very appreciated because that's uncommon at fancy spots. They provide complimentary bread and olive oil. Then you order a bunch of plates to share, so it's a fun culinary journey. It was all unique and delicious. Highly recommend everything we got: Stuffed squash Salmon rillettes White beans and ricotta Seabass Chocolate cake with ice cream Some cocktail that my husband got Hibiscus Big Marble non-alcoholic drink It's no surprise that they are considered one of the essential restaurants of Scottsdale! read more

Food, fresh, original and healthy. Service with Joanna was incredibly accommodating and attentive to every detail. What a delight she was!!

The space was cute and the service was lovely. I came on Halloween and they gave me a ghost cookie! One of the reasons I came was for the wine list because I wanted to try AZ wine, which I did at a tasting room prior to my reservation at FnB, so I ended up getting a cocktail that was clear but full of flavor. The food was delicious and well balanced across. The salad had a nice bright acidity to it, and the fish dish was cooked just right and the sauce not too heavy. read more

Tiny restaurant tucked in the between some old town random shops. Food was pretty good. All local ingredients. For the price I would say I was definitely left wanting more. Glad we tried it out, but not a place I'd be coming back to time after time. read more

Just Delicious! Fresh as can be, beautiful presentation, fair prices and a very talented chef! The menu changes daily. At our table of five, we all tried different things and NO ONE was dissapointed! Fantastic meal. Beware, the "small plates" are not that small! Chef Charlene, we will be back! read more

If you're looking for a nice sit down restaurant with an eclectic menu then FnB should be added to your list. Be sure to make reservations in advance as the location isn't incredibly large and they do their best to space out the different dining areas. Their menu changes based on the seasons but during this visit there were great protein options such as the grouper. In addition the grouper I got the preuvian rolls, cabbage, lamb manti, and pecan chocolate dessert to end the night. The preuvian rolls had a nice crisp and I also enjoy the grilled cabbage/feta combination. The grouper was hearty and filling and not something I usually see on menus so it was a must try. My favorite of the night was definitely the lamb manti with the combination of the lamb and pomegranate seeds. It didn't have a gamey flavor and has a nice pop of acidity. The pecan chocolate dessert was so rich but was balanced with the ice cream on top. It's a great dessert to get and with the rest of the meal I left stuffed! read more

Cozy inside with cute outdoor seating - staff was super nice and accommodating and were able to seat us way earlier than our reservation time (we were starving lol) Food: Grilled broccolini [5/5]: super yummy and crispy - honestly think they can be spicier! Loved the crunch of the pistachios with it as well Latkes [5/5]: i loveee latkes and these were perfect (smelled and tasted delicious). Super crispy on the outside, hot and steamy on the inside, pairs nicely with the sweet applesauce. Mushroom momos [4/5]: really yummy if you like mushroom and dumplings - taste profile reminded me of a moussaka. The momos were't super juicy though so definitely not like the traditional south asian momos. Mexican corvina [4/5]: really delicate fish, cooked to perfection- the corn/salsa is super sweet and pairs nicely with the meat. Wish the skin was a bit crispier but overall really yummy Brioche doughnut [5/5]: yum! Soft and cakey, tastes of fall (would skip this if you're not a fan of cakey doughnuts) - i heard the server suggest to another table that they can order the doughnut with the pudding and dip it, something interesting to try if you go :) read more

OMG--this is a must-go restaurant. It's not your average dining experience. The menu changes weekly, sometimes even daily, depending on what's in season and the chef's creativity--which explains why you won't find it online. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality. Every dish had incredible texture and layers of flavor--honestly hard to describe, but absolutely wow. My husband even said it was one of the best salads he's ever had. The roasted carrot spread and dip created the day we arrived was outstanding, and every dish we tried impressed us. We also had the chance to meet one of the owners, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even more special. Joana, our waitress, was so friendly and helpful. She gave great recommendations and didn't just push the most expensive options, which we really appreciated. It's a small, local, chef-owned spot, with a wonderful ambience so definitely make a reservation. Easily one of the best meals I've had in Scottsdale. read more

A perfect experience. The food was excellent and the portions were very generous. The outdoor seating is nice, especially in the evening. Service was prompt and they were a great help with deciding what to eat! I had the ribeye and it was so refreshing on top of the couscous and veggie medley. The carrot cake for desert with candied ginger was the best carrot cake I had ever had. I also enjoyed her chicken spring rolls. With an ever changing menu I look forward to returning whenever I am in town. read more

We checked out FnB for dinner tonight and were blown away with the quality, presentation, service, and overall experience. It's very clean and modern, with a nod to our local resource of timber (flooring to tables to meal presentation) along with comfortable seating (we sat in a booth with fuzzy pillows). It appears they have live music, as a mic and chair were set up in the alcove above the entrance. We ordered the special (whole rack of ribs plus two sides served on a chunky wooden cutting board) and a "small" plate of dirty pork fried rice...and oh my gosh. The latter was unlike anything I've ever had...pretty much a taste explosion that has me hooked. The ribs had a dry rub and were cooked perfectly, and the mashed potatoes and veggies (likely locally grown) were delicious. We wrapped it up with dessert - chocolate mousse and cheesecake...also amazing. This family of three took home leftovers...and we only ordered one entree and a small plate to share. If you haven't been to this conveniently located spot on Jackson St, you should check it out. There's something for everyone. read more

This is easily the best restaurant in what is an underrated city from a culinary perspective. The food, the service, the wine, the ambience there isn't anything constructive that I can say! I think there are two things that really set this place apart from the rest. Two things that allow me to confidently proclaim that FnB is unequivocally THE best; the staff and the food. Staff - the service here is without comparison. They are are attentive, authentic, passionate, and joyful. Everyone seems to be happy that they are there, happy that you are there, and happy that they can provide you with a wonderful experience. The front of house people are second to none in this respect. Food - the things they do are nothing short of mind blowing. You can come here every week (we have for many stretches) and order enough food to 6 people, and NEVER have the same dish. More impressive, everything you try is a hit. You will read the menu and think "that won't possibly work" but somehow, miraculously, inexplicably, it does! It defies reason, but time and time again, the food is amazing. Go here, try things, go here again. If you are only in town for a few days, you should honestly come here twice. It's that good. Make a reservation, it's a small space and is always busy. read more

One of my favorite restaurants anywhere, ever! I've been there twice, only because we live 3 hours away and they are usually closed when we are in town, but.....,the second time we went in, we were remembered! Wow! The place is quaintly small. The food is farm to table fresh, seasonal, and so simply perfect! I love that they use locally sourced foods from the region. This place is PERFECT!!!!! read more

To begin the staff was sooo friendly and the service was top notch. Ashley was an awesome waitress. All of the ingredients used are fresh so the menu changes every month due to what is in season. I loved the pasta dish the most. The portion sizing was very generous. I would have loved more seafood options on the menu. They have indoor and outdoor seating, it's a nice intimate space. read more
