Tía Carmen Is the Perfect Scottsdale Resort Restaurant
Tia Carmen is about as pretty as a hotel restaurant can get. Every detail is well thought out—so many textures, so many details, such a nice flow. And if you show up as a vacationer or a staycationer, the vibe is just about perfect. You can casually flow in, flow out, pop to your room for a sec, and head over to the incredible J.W. Marriott pool for a swim.
Sauvage Wine Bar and Shop Is Like Hanging at Your Coolest Friend’s House
Sauvage is an interesting little place. At its core, it’s a wine bar—specifically, a natural wine bar with perhaps the most interesting wine list in town. Go pick up a bottle one day after work. You’ll love it. But once nighttime hits (or sometimes during morning popups!), it’s really more of a true hangout. A place you can go grab a wine and politely dance to some DJ playing something that’s not your typical club music.
Pyro Is Japanese for the Fancy Steakhouse Crowd
Pyro is what happens when a trendy restaurant group decides to dabble in Japanese food that’ll appeal to people who might not normally spend top dollar at a Japanese restaurant. Like sure, you could spend gobs of money at Shinbay or Shimogamo, but if sushi isn’t really your thing and you’d really prefer American portions of protein (as opposed to 4 oz. A5 Wagyu plates), Pyro is the ticket.
