jade bar, which is located inside the Sanctuary, was recommended to us for their HH and the views of Camelback Mountain. When we arrived, it was a bit confusing, as there wasn't really any signage or staff who were willing to assist in directing us to the the place - the hostess at the elements restaurant was snippy and was just rude for no reason! The setup at jade bar was fine; sitting by the windows is your best bet to get a nicer view; however, there was a wedding that was taking place outside, so we couldn't access to have the option to do an al fresco experience. There was no hostess, and the waitstaff seemed to be limited; we didn't know this was just a 'walk-in and grab a seat at any table' type of a setup - We ordered: +the Truffle Tots - did not expect what this dish was; the romesco sauce was just not good +a California maki roll - the imitation crab meat had an off taste to them, and it wasn't tightly rolled so everything fell apart +and, the Chicken Wings - this was covered in some type of a sticky/hoisin type of a sauce; the chicken was NOT cooked through, and we thought we were going to get sick We ordered the Blueberry Dreams (prepared with buffalo trace bourbon, lillet rouge, blueberry lemon, honey, and ginger) and the Spicy Margarita (prepared with deleon blanco tequila, cucumber, jalapeno, and lime) - both were made very strong and were aesthetically pleasing. The seating area and the chairs could have been wiped down and cleaned better; we noticed stains on the furniture. We weren't checked-in often throughout our experience; we would have liked refills, ordered additional drinks, etc., but it wasn't hapepning. You can pop out through the doors at the back of elements for a better view of the mountains, if you wish. We're glad to try this place out, but not worth going out of your way for it. +underwhelming HH options +inattentive/rude staff +located at the Sanctuary read more

Beautiful bar/restaurant inside Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa. They don't take reservations, so our group was happy to get there in time to snag a great spot with an incredible view of Camelback Mountain! Service, food, and ambiance was amazing and would absolutely recommend. Would love to come back to try Elements, their restaurant right next to Jade Bar. read more

Jade Bar - Lounges Near Me - Paradise Valley, Arizona

Been going to the Jade Bar for years. Love to go for the exceptional service and great cocktails. I visited this last Saturday with my husband, daughter, and a guest that was in town. We were completely disappointed. Service was horrible. No one came to the table to greet us and give us menus. We had to flag someone down to get menus. Then we had to flag someone down to take our order. Once our drinks did arrive, they were not the good cocktails we've come to experience. Don't know if we will be back. Very disappointing! read more

Views views views!!! If u're looking for a chic vibe restaurant bar with gorgeous views, u found it!!! Jade Bar is a gem! I've only had a couple of appetizers here, and I can't say that they were fabulous, as I ordered some pretty plain Jane stuff. The Housemade chips and onion dip, as well as the Vegetable crudite were ok. I wished the dips for both those appetizers had more flavor and kick to them, but, knowing that I ordered some pretty unflavorful dishes, I'll quit my whining. On the other hand, the cocktail was divine! The Lost Dutchman was so tasty & refreshing!! Don't be shy! U can totally eat the flowers that are elegantly decorated in ur cocktail!! Service was great! Our server came by to check on us just the right amount of times!! Price is on the high side, but u're paying for the stunning views as well as u're in paradise valley!!! Go ahead and splurge!!! read more

WOW! Now this place is literally and figuratively a hidden gem!! We wanted to dine at the connecting restaurant and while waiting, discovered this bar! there's a BEAUTIFUL circular view of the mountains and sunset if you time it right. The golden hour there is unreal - great for the girls who are looking for those golden hour pictures as there is a lot of area to walk around the property and get some good shots! There is also a spot to sit outside if there is no room inside, and honestly we preferred it outside because you had a great view of the sunest with a gentle breeze. The servers were quick to check on us even though we were seated outside. read more

Incredible views! We had a reservation at Elements and decided to grab a cocktail beforehand. When I tell you Jade Bar has some of the most exquisite views of Paradise Valley, I am not lying. The drinks were beautifully made and were delicious. I LOVED The Mekong cocktail and had a few of them! I highly recommend this bar and will definitely return for brunch! read more

Beautiful views with sophisticated style and service. The small app menu was perfect for our purpose.

Very nice and the sushi isn't bad. Met with family and friends for an impromptu birthday gathering and everyone had a good time.

The Jade is the bomb for a good energy, sexy sunset eve out. Sunday was the perfect day as bottles of wine were half-off. While I feel some guilt day-drinking, it disappeared when the sun went down and the snacks (fries, and a shrimp cocktail) appeared. Our server, Samantha, was on-game, helpful, and personable. She checked in often, even when we adjourned to be near the outdoor fireplace. While Jade Bar is tops in atmosphere, food, and service, there are a couple of areas of improvement. Table/chair height at booths near window. The seating is either too low, or table too high. I feel like a child sitting at a giant table. I could slide the food from the table top directly into my mouth. Cut the table post, or hand out adult booster seats. Haha. Bar seating is always best in my opinion. Fireplace seating could be optimized (increased revenue). The current four seat semicircle facing the fireplace could be elongated outward with coffee table, to double capacity. Missed revenue opportunity when couple was seated and empty seats occupied w handbag, and dog. read more

Took my mother and sister here for drinks the night they got in. We made it for sunset and found the table right next to the fire. We started off with drinks. The Lost Dutchman tasted even better than it looked, and it was a good looking drink. The French Spy was not as sweet, but also very good. I went with Weller bourbon (a bit pricey but so worth it!). We got a second round of drinks and decided to order some snacks. We ordered the truffle Parmesan fries and the vegetable crudite. The fries were delicious and not too much truffle. The hummus was a generous portion and had a variety of fresh veggies for dipping. Overall love this place and will be going back, bringing all of our visitors here for a drink and amazing views. read more

Stopped by here on a Sunday afternoon for a cocktail and dessert to enjoy the beautiful view of the property. It was busy in the bar lounge, however we got lucky and snagged the last couch space for the two of us. It took a ridiculously long time for our server to take our orders, I had to ask the busser to grab our server for us twice. After we received our drink and dessert, i had to ask the busser again to grab our server so we could pay and leave. The server seem to be attentive with the other guest around us, but rarely check in on us. read more

Tried this place for a sunset happy hour. Restaurant has a great view perched on top of an overlook. Can't really see the sun at as the sun set was left of the view when we were there but we did outside and watch from a different angle. Wry nice upscale place with great service. Happy hour prices were just a few dollars off so nothings special like 2 for ones but the food quality was good. I recommend the vegetable hummus platter Drinks were god as well. Very beautiful setting worth a try. I recommend parking in the self park and walking up as it's nice to see the place. read more

Amazing brunch, good service, and spectacular paradise valley 360 views. I stayed at the sanctuary hotel on premises and had lunch, dinner and breakfast the next day there. The food and drinks are really good, I had the fried egg rice for breakfast, with the thick cut bacon was to die for. Bellinis Mimosas and some monkey bread. For lunch we split the wagyu burger and tequila drinks. At night we picked Rockefeller oysters, ginger soup and wagyu dumplings, for main course we had the sea bass and a New York steak. Good vibe and they have live music. Love it for a weekend gateway read more

Views, service, drinks and live music were excellent! Our server even brought us a complimentary champagne toast when we mentioned it was our anniversary. Nice touch! But, we were not impressed with the food. Had chicken quesadillas and Caesar salad for apps and it was very mediocre. I'd come here again for everything but the food. read more

I am a disabled black female Air Force veteran and was a first responder at the Pentagon during 9/11. I have resided in Scottsdale/Paradise Valley area for 3 years now and I have visited the Sanctuary Spa on many occasions and have dined at the Elements restaurant as well. I find both the restaurant and the spa to be quite calming and serene and have always felt welcomed as a single black female. I saw the Jade Bar on IG a few weeks ago and decided since I had a light day that I would go for a visit. I am a foodie at heart and love dining out. I entered the bar around 2:30 pm on 9/28/23, upon entering, I immediately went to the bar and asked a female bartender if the small tables near the window were open and she said yes and that she would send someone right over to take my order. The place was quite empty with exception of a small party of patrons, all male eating and chatting as I walked over to my table which was directly behind them. There was another woman dining near the front door entrance. I saw a waiter working with the table of gentlemen that sat at the table behind me but never came over to me. 15 minutes went by, and no one came over to ask if I even wanted water. I began to wonder what the delay was since the place was fairly empty. Shortly after that thought, a Caucasian woman came in and sat at a table beside mine, before she could barely get her legs under her table, a waiter approached and gave her water and asked for her drink order. He then turned and started to walk toward the bar, I immediately called him over and asked if I could place an order, he immediately stated that he didn't see me sitting there. To put this in perspective, coming from the kitchen, he most likely saw me before he saw the lady that sat at the table beside me. I am a black female (the only one in the bar) short pixie cut AND I had on a mustard-colored outfit that consisted of leggings, top and long duster. He said he was sorry and proceeded to ask for my order. I was taken aback because I was literally sitting at the table beside the lady whose order he had just took. I asked him how was it possible that I had been in there for 15 mins and had to call him over so I could a drink? He then stated that it had been a busy day, and he was in the kitchen telling his boss that he THINKS he has cancer. I told him I was sorry to hear that but somehow, he had managed to take the order of the woman beside and she hadn't been there for 5 minutes. He offered to take care of my drink overlooking the optics of it all. I asked him did he know how it feels to feel discriminated against due to the color of your skin without provoking any action at all other than coming into an establishment and he proceeded to tell me about how he grew up in Louisiana, I didn't even listen to the story. I later spoke with Paul Carter, Director of Food & Beverage and expressed my concerns. I am never one to pull the race card however, this felt like deliberate racism to me at its finest. It was a very uncomfortable dining experience for the remaining time I was there and very disheartening that this type of behavior still goes on. The lady that sat at the table beside me came over and apologized because she witnessed the conversation and noticed she was served as soon as she arrived. She said she noticed me as soon as she came in because she admired my outfit but yet the waiter said he didn't notice me sitting there waiting for service. I don't expect everyone to understand this review, however, I hope it reaches the audience that needs to hear it. Regardless of race, we should all be treated fairly and feel welcomed wherever we choose to dine. read more

We just wanted a couple of drinks and some appetizers. read more

Ahh! We came here last Christmas in 2020 on recommendation from a local who lived nearby. We had an amazing time that year. All of the food back then, was on the happy hour menu. We came in July 2021, and only the Jade burger was on the food list for happy hour. We came today, and no food was on the happy hour menu, only drinks. We had a good time regardless. We both got the Jade burger. Today, the bread was dry, we asked for medium rare and got well done burgers, it was not as good as we had remembered the other two times. Maybe they taste better when they are discounted... ? The view at the Jade Bar, is so amazing, and it truly makes this place a place to visit, even if all you get are the drinks. read more

Well, I wish I can write more... The location seems very nice enough, I would go so far to say the drive to the location is part of the experience. There was an rather intimidating security guy there at the front gate asking why was I there. I just don't feel like I needed to be interrogated before going to a bar so I turned around and left. Maybe I am just an Average Joe and not fitting to be part this upscale place, but who knows. read more

We went to dinner at elements first and enjoyed drinks afterwards.

Elements Or The Sanctuary as it has been affectionately know for decades, is the closest thing to an exclusive private club / resort that Scottdale has to offer other than the Paradise Valley Country Club. The restaurant is always consistent among the locals and visitors alike. Offering great service, food and unparalleled views of the valley. The Jade Bar is the elegant lively casual accompanying restaurant/ bar when you want to have a quick bite or drink while enjoying the ambience of The Sanctuary. We Wanted a quick bite for lunch on Easter Sunday. The place was nicely attended with many couples and families elegantly dress for Easter. There was live guitar music which was a bit loud. But upon discussing with management concerning the volume, they politely told the musician to turn it down. Afterwards everyone could finally hear themselves talking and enjoying each other more. This is really the only criticism in what is a perfectly enjoyable experience here. Menu options are good and the food is delicious. read more

Had an enjoyable evening grabbing some refreshing non alcoholic drinks to start and a cocktail while watching the sunset views. The bartender came to our table and he was super helpful with a great attitude! However, there was no passion fruit to make any kind of drink, disappointing. Sam our server was very attentive although came across as may have been disappointed that we didn't order more. It was a short visit this time, we didn't need much. The Marrakech cocktail was fabulously on point. read more

Located in the Sanctuary Resort at Camelback Mountain, this bar has comfy seating to take in awesome views of the surrounding mountains. It's also nice to walk around the resort and take in all the beautiful scenic fountains, fire pits and lighting, especially at night. I heard this was an excellent spot to watch the sunset so my husband and I wanted to make sure we got there early enough to do so. We arrived around 5pm on a Saturday to get a good seat. I was a little surprised and disappointed because the bar doesn't actually face west so there really wasn't a view of the sun setting. The ambience and service were nice but we didn't get that "wow" sunset view like we were expecting. Menu here is the same as the one offered at Elements restaurant, adjacent to Jade Bar. It changes to the dinner menu around 5:30pm. To me the two menus looked very very similar. Pricey and not a tremendous amount of exciting selections. We decided to split the Jade Bar Burger, which came served with fries. To me it wasn't worth $19 - but steep prices are to be expected at a touristy resort, I guess. All in all, very nice property to check out but I'm not sure this would be my go-to for dinner, tapas or views in the future. Still, a very nice spot in the valley. read more
