  We went here to do the tomahawk, both of us have never had it. It was cooked perfectly to medium rare. However was not seasoned. Also new to chimchurri sauce and it was literally oil and parsley. I thought it had fresh garlic and other seasoning in it but apparently not here. Our meatballs were on the cold side. The frozen drinks were yummy! There was a weird smell when we walked in. Also the 4 table to our left had a baby and was throwing toys hitting my feet. The 4 table the right, the woman dropped, spilt her whole beverage and glass and that beverage came flying at me. So unfortunately not the best experience. Visually appealing, cool looking spot.

  Pretty disappointing experience. Went for a birthday brunch with my girlfriends & almost feel catfished by what is posted on instagram vs reality. We ordered the French toast sticks for the table. The description on the menu said it was thick cut French toast, sticks with cinnamon sugar however what we received is a few pieces of plain white bread French toast very thin and cut up into pieces. Secondly, we ordered a breakfast sandwich that was supposed to come with a side of breakfast potatoes per the menu they came with french fries and lastly, we ordered the breakfast burrito. The bacon was chewy the breakfast potatoes inside the burrito were sweet potatoes, which is different from what breakfast potatoes are and we got the burritos served with a side of ketchup. I’m not sure what burrito is supposed to be eaten with a side of ketchup. They said they did not have salsa which again was odd, and lastly, we ordered the Dole whip mimosas which came in a glass that did not look like a mimosa and it was not that great. Would not go back purely for the deception.

  Well for serving over priced and not that great of drinks, the food was also overpriced and not that great. There’s really not one thing that would make me go back. Steak and frites not great, chimchurri sauce is not just parsley and oil, and the steak was unseasoned and not sure how you’re cooking the steaks but it looked microwaved.. and took forever. The drinks… idk how you screw up a margarita but again flavorless, and please learn how to rim a glass cause a pinch of tajin on the rim ain’t cutting it. And for the special soft serve drinks which were not like the pictures on IG they were very small, to upgrade dole whip to Malibu in it was $5 is actually crazy. Service was okay, and reserving and getting a big party was a good experience. Sorry guys in Scottsdale you have to step it up, that was no where near the service or taste I would expect for $115 meal. Which it wasn’t even two meals we split the steak frites, and got 2 cokes and 2 margaritas and a dole whip drink.

  We went for happy hour a week ago. It was our first time and we enjoyed it. My husband had the oysters and liked them a lot. The smash burgers were juicy and tasty. The lemon pepper wings were yummy. They had a wonderful flavor. The cocktails were very good but a bit slow coming out. The district manager, Steven, came by and talked with us. The manager, Ariel, was so nice and she checked on our table as well. Ella was a sweet, helpful and informative waitress. We had a great time. The music was good and had the perfect volume. We will definitely return.

  We tried Dodo Bird tonight, and while there were some positives, overall we left disappointed. Our server was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive, and took the time to help us choose items from the menu, which we really appreciated. Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to the prices. The portions were much smaller than we expected for what we paid, and the flavors just weren’t anything special. I also ordered the $17 soft-serve margarita, and it tasted more like frozen yogurt than a margarita. If there was alcohol in it, it wasn’t noticeable at all. The service was definitely the highlight of our visit, but because of the portion sizes, pricing, and overall food quality, I don’t think we’d come back.
