Great sushi, nice variety of sake and cocktails. Gets busy, as the bar is also popular as a meeting place.

Restaurant is on the side of AZ Wines, where you can select your wine before or during your meal. Corking fee applies for the waiter. Food is eclectic, unusual and outstanding, one of our favorites.

Eating establishments of all kinds. All on the outskirts of the mall parking lot are great. For really casual dining, there's a nice food court on the lower level of the mall.

This restaurant has access to the most extensive wine selection in the Phoenix valley. The food is great, and often exotic! Good atmosphere, a little pricy.

Sightseeing

This is the original property where Frank Lloyd Wright brought his students for instruction. Try to schedule a 3-hour tour for maximum content, however avoid the heat of the day during the summer!

Drinks & Nightlife

The bar at the Valley Ho is a hoot! All very retro looking. The huge lobby fireplace and seating is great for intimate discussion as well as for large groups to gather. Best to valet park.

Everything Else

This is the closest Casino in the Phoenix Valley to our home. It's principally slot machine play but an OK environment. It's not Las Vegas, mind you, but a nice place to hang for a while.

This is the casino furthest from our house, about 30 minutes away. The drive there is very scenic, particularly after you leave the development and get to the desert. Great slots, sushi bar, bingo.
