Food Scene

Amazing environment and variety of food, unique shop with gifts, books and fun things. The bakery section is the best in the valley. You can get all meals, even pizza, and they have wifi and you can sit anywhere freely.

Unique environment, great for casual but nicer than the average restaurant.

Another restaurant where you don't have to dress up yet the food is top notch and the service is as well. Known for their steaks. The patio area is gorgeous. Also, the pricing isn't outrageous. LGO (La Grande Orange) and Chelsea's Kitchen have the same owners.

Fast wifi even though the place is packed. Iced coffee is great here. There's barely a sign out front, so you'll have to pay attention when you go here, or you'll pass it. Special place.

Whoever owns this put a lot of money into it. Open 24 hours and great environment. Food is great here, too. Went on the weekend and the DJ was really loud and the speakers weren't tuned properly to the space, but other than that, it's a great work place since it's open 24/7.

I love coming here and getting tacos and the chips are my fav. I get it with their queso dip. If you get the tacos, get the pico de gallo on the side or it'll make your tacos soggy. The other salsas and guacamole are super spicy.

Voted America's best sandwich. My two favorite sandwiches are the homemade meatball sub and the The Bobbie, which has turkey, stuffing, cranberry, and mayo. It's like a Thanksgiving dinner at your convenience. They make everything fresh, never frozen, and at a great price to feed multiple people. Be sure to get the correct size sandwich or you'll end up with a 20 inch long for yourself.

Want a cheeseburger? Smashburger is fresh and better than fast food and it's cheap to eat here because there's no tipping spot when you get your receipt.

Shopping

If you want to get designer swimming trunks for $2, this is your place! Nordstrom has different levels of clothing. This is where they'll dump all the random stuff that doesn't sell, excess items, accessories, and returns. You have to be in the mood to be here though. People will fight for items like Ugg boots and it's jam packed with stuff everywhere!

This is the best TJ Maxx, ever. It's a secret one where the items from the Scottsdale Fashion Square mall go to. It's a little bit ways down, but soo worth it if you're looking for actual mall quality items, like Tommy Bahama, for example.

Parks & Nature

No one really goes here, but once you cross the street and look at it, it's a nice path with grass everywhere. If you want to do a long walk or jog outside, this is a great, peaceful area!

Entertainment & Activities

Fun experience with large leather chairs and food service at your seat. Food is fine, better than average fried food and basic sushi, and it's a super cozy theater. I recommend buying tickets online before going and picking your seats online. It's usually sold out.
