    Complimentary "fresh from the oven"bread
    Debbi P.

    Beautiful restaurant, located at the Scottsdale Quarter. Very friendly, welcoming staff, with excellent service. Fabulous happy menu with elevated food and drinks. When they start you off with the incredible complimentary bread, you just know it's going to get better and better!!! Our meal did not disappoint!!! Reservations highly recommended!! Parking nearby as well as valet service. A great first experience!!!

    This risotto was amazing.

    We went to Guest House this past weekend and absolutely loved our experience from start to finish. First, the decor - you walk in and are welcomed by an upscale, coastal Mediterranean vibe that for me, personally, made me want to gut my house and redo it :-). Then came the service. I have Celiac and rarely have I had a server that walked through an entire menu with me, noting what was gluten-free and what could be made gluten-free. It went from me thinking I only had a few options to then not being able to decide. We ordered the Wagyu Pastrami (we absolutely recommend this), my husband had the pork chop, and I had the squash risotto (I am eating the leftovers as I type this). For beverages, my husband chose two different Bordeauxs (both great) and I chose the The Gryphon - I highly recommend this as a honey butter-infused bourbon is the way to go. While we had no room for dessert, they do have a gluten-free sundae in case dessert is more your speed :). The meal is on the pricier side but completely worth it!

    Although there's valet, the Scotsdale Quarter has nearby and free garage parking. What's neat about The Guest House is that they have have 4 distinct eating areas: the bar area, outside, a long hallway, and a large room with round tables. It's pretty neat how each area has a different sort of decor and atmosphere. Note that The Guest House is part of the InKind selection of restaurants. It's an app that basically gets you 20% off of 180+ restaurants in the Phoenix area. I suggest waiting for a Costco sale on InKind gift cards to get even more savings (generally 35% off). I tried out a Butcher's Cut, spicy rigatoni, and a warm toffee butter cake. I found it odd that they don't have a menu for their desserts; you have to ask for it to be told to you orally. My bill came out to be $131.59 (includes tax and tip). I would have loved the steak filet to come with a few small sides. The spicy rigatoni wasn't even spicy, and the toffee butter cake was warm and delicious. The complimentary bread was also nice. The server was kind and congenial. The only hiccup there was that it took a long time for my dessert to be served to me.

    Ice cream sundae

    We had dinner here on a Thursday night and it was quite busy in the main dinning room although lots of seating in the bar area. The menu was more meat and pasta forward, but we shared the ceasar salad, cauliflower main, steak, truffle fries and asparagus. They also brought us some fresh bread which seemed like more of a croissant bread. The bread was delicious but definitely buttery, the highlights for me was the salad and the FRIES- I think these were the best fries I've had in a long time, so good that I ate the whole portion and we had to pack the cauliflower and asparagus to go. I would have been completely satisfied with just a order of fries and the salad! We did end with the sundae which was huge and being full on fries we left majority of it! Will definitely be back!

    Took our friends for dinner and had a great experience start to finish! We had been to Etta in that building and were not fans. TOTALLY different experience now! HIlights for apps were the Charred Moroccan Beets and the pear and Gorgonzola salad. ȚHe shrimp cocktail was awesome. One of our friends loved the Tuna and Cavier cones. The entree star for me was the spicy rigatoni while my wife got the chicken tenders app and parm truffle fries. The impressive looking dessert was a miss ...but that was the only one. Kaleb B was our server and a star! He gets 5 stars as well. Great guidance thru the menu and kept my wife's drink full (top priority for her) A++ Overall!

    The guest has is an amazing upscale experience in the kierland area. We ordered the seafood platter for two and were overwhelmed by the amount and variety of food. The steak tartar bites were delicious, and we also ordered the corn pudding which is not pictured but would highly recommend. The only thing we didn't love were both of the cocktails we ordered from the cocktail menu, so we opted for classic cocktails instead.

    The Guest House (took over the old Etta space) is a visual masterpiece. You don't just walk in; you descend into a world where the lighting makes everyone look like they've just finished a green juice cleanse and the bass is just loud enough to make you give up on talking about anything significant and start talking about another round of tequila. I went for the "Don't Be A Prick," which is served in a glass cactus because, of course, it is. It's a spicy mezcal situation that tastes like a desert sunset and questionable decisions. It's the kind of drink that makes you feel like you could successfully start a podcast or lead a desert expedition, right up until you try to stand up, which I learned the hard way. Pro Tip: Wear your "good" shoes. Not your "I'm going for a walk" shoes, but your "I might be photographed near a velvet rope" shoes.

    Live entertainment!

    My husband and I like to go out to dinner with one of our favorite couples at least once every couple of months. This time we decided to come here to The Guest House and it was wonderful! We were promptly seated for our 6:30 reservation! Our waiter, Colton, was marvelous! He made great suggestions, and he was very attentive without being intrusive. The ambience is stunning and it's beautifully decorated, which makes for a perfect date night. Now let's talk about the food. I had the ribeye top-cap and it simply melted it in my mouth! It had a slightly smoky flavor and was charred perfectly. I had them cook it at medium rare plus and it was perfect. My husband and the other gentleman with us, had the bone-in ribeye. I watched my husband take his first bite, and he looked as though he was having an out-of-body experience! He closed his eyes, as he began to rock side to side and moan a little bit! He said it was that good! I also had a lobster tail for an appetizer and we also. We had several appetizers, including a crabcake, shrimp cocktail, and a lobster tail. All were wonderful. For dinner we had bone in ribeye filet mignon and I had the ribeye top-cap!! BAAABY!! Let me talk about that ribeye top cap for a moment! Stunning! Wonderful! Outstanding! Delicious! Melt in your mouth goodness! Did I use enough adjectives for you? If you can't tell, I loved it! We also had a side of crab meat and a side of king crab. For dessert we had the butter cake with caramel sauce and it was outstanding. We thoroughly thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed our food in our time here, but it wasn't cheap! Our bill for the four of us was $1,150 but it was well worth it!

    Steak
    Myshell G.

    The was really good. The bread wasto die for. My steak was good, not my favorite compared to other places in AZ. We enjoyed our meal. It's not dramatically different from Etta. Still beautiful decor. Service was consistent at the bar to the table, starting with the welcome.

    We came here for a group dinner and it's a beautiful restaurant! The food was also absolutely delicious and I really appreciated our waitress acknowledging if an entree / appetizer was shareable or more single serving. I had an experience the night before where an entree was so small and I was disappointed at how expensive it was for so little food. They also have very pretty whimsical presentations of their food and drinks. It was on the quieter side when we went but overall nice experience.

    Cacio e Pepe with side of fried chicken
    Reena R.

    We were excited to try The Guest House, which recently opened in place of Etta. It was WPMO weekend so we expected it to be busy, but we had reservations so we were seated fairly quickly. The restaurant has beautiful ambience. It is dimly lit and has trees inside. Very pretty. Our servers were very friendly. We had one in training, and the other was more experienced and helping out. The drinks are unique. The people next to us were sharing a really large drink, I think with cotton candy in it. They brought out bread which was so flaky and delicious. It looked so pretty, I had to take a picture of it. We were hoping this was a sign that dinner was also going to be delicious. The butcher's cut steak was cooked well. However, the scallop ceviche, which was supposed to have yuzu, lychee, lavendar, and lime flavors was rather underwhelming. I would say the same about the cacio e pepe and spicy rigatoni, which was nothing special considering the price. The most disappointing dish by far was the Chicken a la Raj. It sounded so good. It is supposed to be a chicken served in a pastry shell with curry. Instead they gave us a fried chicken. They should not have that dish on the menu if they can't serve it right, or should explain it is fried chicken on the menu. We had also ordered chicken with our cacio e pepe, assuming it would be grilled chicken, but they gave us the same fried chicken cut into strips. Extremely disappointing. As much as we wanted to like this restaurant, it did not live up to our expectations.

    Birthday sundae
    Rose C.

    I came here for a birthday dinner on a Sunday night. We had a reservation so we were seated immediately. It was dimly lit inside with soft music. Although it had a intimate ambience it was a large dining area. Our server was nice and personable. The bread they give is so buttery and soft with sea salt flakes. Three of us shared the 35 Oz tomahawk steak. It was cooked really well. I also like the parmesan truffle fries. I took star because there were some items that were forgotten. Also the pricing is a bit much. But overall I do think its worth coming here for dinner at least once.

    Butter Cake
    Kimberly C.

    We had a lot of fun here! The ambiance was perfect...the remodel is beautiful, there is fun background music, but you don't feel like you are in a club. Everyone who greeted us at the hostess stand were just lovely. Our waitress was lovely as well! The cocktails were fun! We did a few of the theatrical drinks and appetizers for fun and they didn't disappoint! The shrimp cocktail was divine- their cocktail sauce, the best I've ever had! The brioche bread was beautiful and beyond delicious. We tried the Mac and cheese and Brussel sprouts- all will be ordered again! The chicken tenders are amazing and the butchers cut was a hit for all! We will definitely be back!

    What's left of my lobster appetizer!

It did not disappoint - this is actually a second-story restaurant so you can see the runway and planes! I'll note it is at the far end of the runway, so it would be MOST ideal to sit outside at the end of the patio for plane watching. Two, the service was impeccable on a Saturday for brunch. Is everyone who works here in a good mood? The energy is bright, light and airy, the service is attentive but low pressure. Three, they LOVE PETS. I'm not a pet owner but while I was there two people brought their pets along and one was a golden retriever puppy. This wouldn't matter but puppies can obviously cause a nuisance indoors - this staff did not mind. They were not in a slow service part of the day but they treated the pets like patrons and it actually created a really relaxed, collaborative atmosphere. I will note this though because if you're not an animal lover/ are afraid of dogs, their acceptance is a little more than the typical "pets outside" policy. Four, the food. It was beyond exceptional, and it's funny because the typical airport diner isn't elevated. But this is Scottsdale, and we had really delicious, beautiful food - actually fine dining presentation but in these cute mismatched kitschy dishes which brought it back down home. Lastly for anyone who loves birding, you wouldn't think an airport is a great spot but there is actually wildly diverse population of birds in the Volanti entrance. Trust me. I would not only love to go back but I think bringing a visitor here would be the best time.

We booked a reservation ahead of time so we're able to snag a patio seat which was the best for plane watching.

Here's my ratings for each menu item we tried: Tenderloin sliders 5/5 Meatballs 4/5 Take off trio 2/5 Tiny tuna 3/5 Tacos 3/5 Our server was just okay this visit, we would've liked to order more but once our food came he didn't check on us again until we had asked for our bill. Overall we still enjoyed our meal & I would come back again.
