Such a great spot to either finish or start a day at the mall. Love starting off the meal with their popovers. Salmon tacos were also fabulous read more

NM Cafe - Salmon tacos - Cafes Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Server was nice popover was ok. Then it went downhill unfortunately. I received a BLTA and was excited to eat it until I opened the sandwich and discovered rotten spinach on it. And that was that for me. Attention to detail and caring about your food presentation as well as quality control would've prevented this! read more

Neiman Marcus Cafe has very nice spacious patio. The weather was perfect for it too. We ordered a Cosmo to enjoy. It was refreshing and they didn't skimp on the alcohol. The popovers were really yummy with strawberry butter. I ordered shaved salad with chicken. Chicken was moist and warm...delicious. The salad itself was bit dry though. It had light miso dressing and could've used little more. However, it had lot of good ingredients such as pepitas, raisins and dried cranberries. The Salmon entree had moist filet of grilled salmon with some random sides. Not sure how hard boiled egg fit into this picture but it was good with the sauce. The service was excellent. Appreciated our waitress and her helpers. Enjoy! read more

The popover with strawberry butter is a special treat. Among other delicious items from which to choose, the tortilla soup and the tuna salad are excellent. The beverage selections are unusually good. The service is flawless. The hosts and the servers are remarkably friendly and accommodating. The ambiance is inviting and fun. Treat yourself to this hidden gem for a perfectly enjoyable lunch. read more

Great... on the very rare occasions they're ever open when I'm at the mall. Honestly I don't know how a food business (*with a bar* no less) thinks it's ok to be always closed on Sundays, and as I just learned yesterday, close on weekdays at 3pm. I was excited to enjoy a late lunch and showed up 10 minutes apparently too late. Either commit to being a *real restaurant/cafe/bar* or just give up and cease taunting us with your dysfunctional and chronically disappointing presence. read more

The ambiance was nice. This cafe was clean and modern looking. The service was great from the greeting through the entire visit! Great waitress!! The food was so so good and the place was comfortable! NM burger, fries, Tuna Melt, the popovers, the broth, the orange cranberry desert and the cappuccinos all fantastic. Will be eating there again! read more

Always consistent. My husband and I stumbled upon this cafe by accident and we both love it. Great menu and they bring fresh, hot popovers and chicken broth upon your arrival. Classy move, we feel. They pour a descent drink and offer a full bar as well as wine and champagne. I am ADDICTED to their truffle fries! Their cream of mushroom soup is not to be missed as well. My husband loves their Cesar salad. They also serve a pretty decent burger for you meat eaters. This is a pop in and pop out kinda place. Very relaxed and low key. You know this place is really good when you see employees eating there. read more

The popover and consommé are worth it alone. But the egg salad, tortilla soup, quiet calming ambience, desert chocolate, and friendly service ...well it's just a lovely place. read more

What a fun girlie place to lunch! We took a break from shopping and relaxed here. We were seated on the patio. Great ambience. We started with a complimentary broth and yummy puff (like a big puffy crusty popover) and their strawberry butter. Their drink special was a margarita, the server gave us a taste but we decided it was a little too sweet so we each had a buttery Chardonnay. We wanted something light for lunch so we both had a bowl of soup. I had the tomato basil and my friend had the tortilla soup. Both were delicious. There were lots of options to choose from, salads, sandwiches, etc. This place is always a delight! read more

This place is awesome! Food is delicious and the customer service is simply the best! We had Rod and he is such a wonderful guy! His customer service skills were by far exceptional. Try the bread, it is gluten free and delicious. read more

Popovers, salads, and sandwiches... yes, please! Not sure why it took me all these years to make my way to NM Cafe, but better late than never... It was somewhat of a special occasion as this may have been my "last lunch" with Lindsey F before the baby arrives, so I wanted to try somewhere new. While it was a bit of a splurge, I was super pleased with the experience. (I guess you have to expect that going in, just as you have to expect when shopping at Neiman Marcus!) Stephanie was our waitress and she was awesome. She refilled my Arnold Palmer and water several times without me even asking... I was in love at first bite with those popovers and berry butter... I even contemplated asking for a second one, since my first one was so delicious, but my chopped salad was very filling, so I didn't want to overdo it. Lindsey seemed to enjoy her veggie wrap sandwich (which she added turkey to) and sweet potato fries. I'm not watching my diet right now since I'm eating for two, but I do like the fact that they put the # of calories on the menu for each item. There are plenty of healthy options and everything that I saw being served looked fresh and delicious. I will definitely be back to NM Cafe again real soon... it may even become a regular in my rotation of favorite lunch places near work and home. read more

I was really looking forward to attending my birthday celebration with my friend at the cafe. I love Neiman Marcus, so I expected a five-star experience. Upon arrival, we were asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside on the patio. We made the wrong choice! The inside is busy but the outside heaters were so high we were sweating. Also, there is no view so you are not missing much by sitting inside except for more room. The waiter was very busy as they were understaffed. We were initially served with soup tasters, but I thought they were tea or cider, so I took a big sip and almost choked on the salt. (The waiter should have told us they were soup, not tea or cider!). I then ordered a beet and goat cheese salad, but the beets were undercooked, and there was very little goat cheese. My friend ordered the french fries that were also undercooked. I do plan to go back to this venue for a glass of wine, but I don't recommend the food. I have had much better popovers in New Jersey (more egg/less dry), and I will sit at the bar next time. Finally, they ran out of Sav. Blanc, so I hope to have a glass next time! @toastofluxury read more

This was my first time here. I had heard so much about how fun it was to catch a quick bite there. What a disappointment ! We were directed to a tiny, tiny table . When I sat down I felt like I was literally sitting in the lap of the person to my right. We hardly talked over lunch as there was a total lack of privacy The conversation from the people next to us overwhelmed us. The chicken salad was tasteless. The turkey on the sandwich was also tasteless. The tomato vegetable soup was nice, but could have been served hotter The popover was an interesting alternative to the usual bread roll. Although I would suggest during baking vents are put in the sides to allow the choux pastry to breathe and dry out. There was to much uncooked dough inside The strawberry butter was rather tasty. The chicken broth that we were presented with on being seated was very salty and added nothing to the dining experience read more

Perfection! Discreet patio with socially - distanced seating. Servers who are friendly and work as a team. The spiced iced tea is heavenly. The NM burger is great (add avocado). The spicy mayo is delicious. And of course the one and only chocolate chip cookie. Served warm so the chocolate is melting. A must-do experience in Fashion Square! read more

Visited Scottsdale last week and had lunch here. Best salad, server was Joe and the Manager was so nice, Ron. Great staff, great food!

Wow! I've been coming to this mall for years and did not stop into this cafe until now? Cute, modern decor, great food and service! Our server ( Ginny I think) was delightful, my salad was delicious and the manager was really on top of things. I'll be back! read more

Great atmosphere and wonderful service. Excellent quality of food. I love the popovers. The crab louie is wonderful. All the servers are very personable and friendly. I will definitely be back! read more

Many have raved about this place so we decided to pop in on a break from shopping to have lunch. It's a dull and rather lackluster restaurant where the seating is too close in proximity and a real lack of privacy; in other words, uncomfortable. The Popover with Strawberry Butter was unimpressive, the Strawberry Butter slightly redeemed it. Although, after one bite I put it to the side. We ordered a tasteless Chicken Salad and Turkey Sandwich with Tomato Vegetable and Chicken Tortilla Soup. The soups were tasty and the Chicken Tortilla had a good amount of kick. The Turkey was dry and tasteless, making it hard to eat and I found myself swigging water with each bite. Both the lettuce and tomato were not fresh and the bread...hard. Unfortunately, will not be returning to this establishment. read more

I'm actually writing this review because I called and asked for a manger after I got home with my Togo order and I've given it a week and no phone call! This is normally the best hamburger in Scottsdale but the two I ordered for my son and I were both burnt to a crisp! Blackened!!! The burger and the bun were both black as night! Normally they would be a delicious char but not burnt like these were. I also ordered 2 pieces of cake and the only had one in there! Popovers and butter were above par as always! Hey NM call me and make our burgers right! read more

I don't know how Neiman Marcus can associate with this cafe. Really off brand and bad for business. I love NM Cafe in LA,SF,Houston, NY....but what is going on at this location? Really gross food and decor. Reminds me of a cheap hotels continental breakfast lounge, except that would be cleaner and more space between tables.This location is a mess, staff have no customer service skills and are dressed in workout attire. The place smells bad which is a common complaint with customers walking by located next to the restroom. Complained to the manager about a bad experience and he was just as if not more so worse than the establishment. Neimans no longer has high professional standards like it once did. Shame read more

Hidden gem! Those who don't know better may never happen Across the Cafe at Neiman's! The food is fantastic and the service is first class. Leave your pretense behind when you dine here, you won't need it. Good food, great service and atmosphere! It's the closest I have found to a private club without having to actually join one;)! read more

Fancy ladies with a few gays sprinkled in. This is NM Cafe! Popovers. Prawn and avocado salad. Glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Make your reservation under Candy Spelling's name. You will get the BEST table. Works every time. read more

I'm shocked I haven't yet reviewed a cafe that I've been frequenting since before the sushi invasion and even Nordstrom came to town! Yes, I am talking about the one and only Neiman Marcus Cafe. My Mom introduced the cafe to me in my younger years and I remember sitting with her and her friends and acting like a lady who lunches with the big girls. Whether it's the cafe in Scottsdale or the one overlooking Union Square in SF, the Neiman Cafes all around have one thing in common: delicious food and mouthwatering popovers! This afternoon, Gabi M and I must have been on the wave length, because we both thought to try one of the high end retailer's cafes for lunch. Since Gabi had never been here, we decided that today was the day to visit the NM Cafe. I'm so glad we did because I have a sneaking suspicion that moving forward, I won't just be visiting this cafe with Mom but now with Gabi M as well! So where shall I begin? This is a spot for ladies who lunch. If you're lucky enough to do some retail therapy in Neiman Marcus, this is a great cafe to rest your weary shopping feet. Or, if you just like to window shop and dream, the cafe is a great option to do so and still experience the fine Neiman Marcus service. Now I will share a little secret with you, Neiman Marcus is also owned by Bergdorf's in NYC (or vice versa), so the service and quality is pretty much the same. Fresh popovers accompanied with berry butter are placed at the tables moments after you sit down. Whether I'm enjoying the tortilla soup, a salad or sandwich, the food at the NM Cafe is always spot on. This afternoon I had the veggie wrap and added turkey. I was pleasantly surprised when a side of delicious sweet potato fries showed up with it as well! And for the calorie conscious, here's a great side note: NM Cafe lists the calories next to each item on the menu. It makes me think about what I'm eating that much more. I personally enjoy dining on the patio of the cafe since the seating inside is a bit more cramped, but since it's unbearable to be anywhere near the outdoors right now, we sat inside and it was quite lovely as well! But if you visit during nice weather months, definitely choose the patio. I'm a little selfish when it comes to this secret gem known as the NM Cafe, but since I love Yelp so much, I decided to share my love of the NM Cafe with my fellow yelpers. Visit and you won't be disappointed! read more

To enter Narnia all one has to do is step into a wardrobe. The NM Cafe, however, requires a small traipse through the Neiman Marcus men's section. Finding this hidden gem is well worth it because delectable sandwiches, soups, and salads await you! This is the perfect place for a lunch that will easily fit into the hour that most companies give for a noon break. It is quick, filling, and just a great place to relax. The simple decor and color usage almost gives NM the ambiance of a day spa. I got the grilled cheese with broccoli cheddar soup and a side salad. It is out-of-control yummy. The sourdough bread that the sandwich comes with has the most perfect flavoring! The tomatoes pair well with the melty cheeses too. The desserts are beautiful looking, but I have not had the chance to sample anything yet. I can't wait to try the cupcakes though! Forget the adventures in a smelly old wardrobe and get lost in the men's department. Perhaps you'll find your way into this fabulous little cafe. read more

Fred's at Barneys is closed "for the summer", but I'm glad I remembered the cafe at Neiman's. It is really hard to find - I had to ask directions from the cosmetics salesperson. Turns out it's on the main level, go through the men's dept, all the way to the back to the far left corner. If NM Cafe has slow sales, it's only because half their potential customers gave up before they found it. Even though it was still about 100 degrees out, we chose to sit on the mostly enclosed patio and were comfortably cool. Gave our drink orders and, what is this? An angelic figure floating by our table offering softball sized popovers? Ok, maybe not an angel, but at the very least I'm sure she's related to the tooth fairy or some other pleasant mythical lady with wings. Popovers were huge and served with strawberry butter. Yum. So we had the turkey panini that came with side salad and balsamic dressing (pretty good but hard to eat and the dressing lacked flavor) and grilled cheese with soup (omg good). I was hoping my buddy the popover fairy would return, but alas our encounter was to be but once this time. This is such a relaxing place to have lunch; especially when you compare it to the other options at Fashion Square. The servers were all very pleasant, and every so often models wearing the NM clothing would weave through the tables, stopping at each to describe. It was fun pretending with them that I could ever in a million years afford to buy anything they wore - or would want to! It was still fun to look. NM Cafe is about the same price point or less for lunch as the other sit down restaurants at the mall, so it's a great option to keep in mind when you need a break from Fashion Square. read more

Who knew there was a Neiman Marcus' cafe?? It's a bit hidden (near the Men's department) but the menu options are great! The popover was fantastic and they bring it out with a strawberry butter. DIVINE. Ordered a fancy grilled cheese sandwich that came with a side salad. The portion was perfect for lunch. Seats are a bit limited indoors but they have a nice patio outside. Service was perfect. read more

The popover with strawberry butter was actually really good and better than I expected. My soup was forgettable, but my french dip and fries were tasty. Service was fine. It was overall a nice experience...it was interesting to be eating amongst the NM loyal clientele and models in extravagant gowns (for an event I suppose). I wish they gave complimentary cookies like Paradise Bakery, with the urban legend around their cookie recipe and all. I wouldn't come back unless it was with someone who wanted to experience Neiman Marcus' lunch though, as the food wasn't that amazing considering the price and limited hours. Or maybe if I was with a Neiman Marcus President's Circle shopper who wanted to earn more points by treating us for lunch. read more

Great place to fill your popover craving. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. Ordered the crab & shrimp Louie. The seafood was fresh and the salad was filling. I asked for the dressing on the side to control the amount. The cafe is great bc you get complementary consommé, a huge popover, and a piece of chocolate. Next time I'll save room for dessert. read more

We were plannng to go to Nordstrom Cafe but the spa receptionist insisted we go here. I won't soon forgive her. It's a tiny space, it reminds me of little hole in the wall diners growing up in the south. The menu is not extensive by any means. The service was average. We ordered two bowls of the soup of the day and two iced teas. The soup was good, equal I would say to Cafe Zapatista soup. Our bill was 37.00! More expensive than Tiffanys Cafe in New York City. I will never go back. Please forgive me Nordstrom Cafe. It was the fault of the receptionist at the spa, she needs to get out more. read more

First time here. Food fresh and well seasoned. Staff pleasant and informative. Enjoyed visit.

This might be one of those little known about, or rarely thought of places to eat in the mall, but its actually quite good! I had a southwest salad with chicken and a cilantro lime vinaigrette. Everything was very fresh and tasty. They have a number of sandwiches, couple soups, and hot pasta dishes to choose from as entrees. It is cafe-style, so you grab a tray and make your decisions as you go through the line. The bf got a creme brulee that looked really good and was loaded with vanilla bean. Servers refill your drinks and bring out any hot food you might be waiting on. I will definitely keep this place in mind next time I want a salad in the mall! read more

We were very disappointed in our lunch. It's a very tiny place and not comfortable. They try to act like a high-end restaurant but look like a tiny fast food place. My chicken salad sandwich was just okay with the bread sagging and not able to hold up the ingredients. My husband's portabello mushroom sandwich was terrible. The mushroom was oil soaked and not edible. They are way over-priced for what they serve. The popover you get is good and if you like that kind of butter the strawberry butter is flavorful. We won't be back and won't recommend it. read more
