Village Tavern has done it once again! They have exceeded my expectations. Jessica, our server, was a welcome beacon of light, always smiling, always happy. My wife, Donna and I, could not have been happier with the way we were treated. From the hostess/manager who seated us with charm and hospitality, through Jessica, ever-present but only when deemed appropriate, all the way around, ending with the manager making sure we were fully satisfied, this was a Saturday luncheon par excellence we will not soon forget! Our privacy completely respected, yet our server, Jessica, just seemed to be there the moment we required her presence. Her attentiveness and friendliness were beyond compare! We highly recommend this restaurant as it is OFF THE HOOK!

4.5 star experience, but rounding up for delicious food! Staff at check-in were friendly & welcoming. The restaurant was very busy, with lively ambiance. I ordered filet mignon, which was so tender that I cut it with a butter knife. Service by server Shawn K was efficient, but not very personable. I would definitely return for another delicious steak.

I recently enjoyed a delightful dinner with friends at Village Tavern in Scottsdale, AZ, after a productive day showing commercial buildings in Phoenix.
Upon arrival, the atmosphere was inviting, and while the hostess could have been a bit warmer, our server truly shone. I was initially impressed when she took our orders without writing anything down, and she flawlessly remembered everything!
My friends raved about their meals, and I was eager to share my experience as well:
Clam Chowder**: While I found it a bit rich and thick for my taste, the flavor was delightful, especially with a dash of Tabasco.
Fish and Chips**: The fries were tasty, but the fish could use a little enhancement to reach its full potential.
The standout of the evening was undoubtedly our server, who provided exceptional service throughout our meal.
Overall, my friends and I had a fantastic time, and I’m giving Village Tavern 4 stars, primarily for the outstanding service!

We had an amazing experience at Village Tavern! We started with the roasted cauliflower, which was absolutely heavenly — perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The veggie burger was fresh, tasty, and one of the best we’ve had in a while. The fries were crisp and delicious too!
A special shoutout to our waitress Emily, who was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made the experience even better. Great place, great food, and wonderful service all around. We loved it so much we ended up leaving an 80% tip — they truly earned it!
Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for quality food and genuine hospitality.

Our server, Art, blew us all away with his knowledge of the menu, the restaurant’s history, and, in particular, his awesome familiarity with Oregon wines! He was compassionate, empathetic, and sympathetic (as I witnessed the delicate and thoughtful way he assisted a physically challenged gentleman in a nearby booth). Additionally, he treated us with patience and tolerance, affording us ample opportunity to delve into the vast menu. He was always polite and soft-spoken. Art was attentive without being intrusive. Art ensured that we thoroughly savored our elegant dining experience. That is to say nothing about the food and beverages portion of the evening. Art was so completely and totally engaging, that we almost forgot we were hungry and thirsty. My wife said her halibut was prepared the best she has ever tasted, not to mention that the fish itself was absolutely beyond compare. I myself reveled in the Blackened Chicken Alfredo; and, the balance and freshness of the spices was perfect. Our house guest and my daughter’s soulmate, visiting from Japan, adored her Mediterranean Bowl. All three dishes were beautifully presented. The lovely evening was topped off with key lime pie, my absolute favorite, especially when made from scratch, accompanied by Dreyer’s Vanilla Ice Cream. Finally, my wife and our beloved friend shared your scrumptious carrot cake!

We enjoy our visits to Village Tavern and it is our favorite restaurant in Scottsdale. We usually arrive with 6-12 people in our party. The atmosphere, service, food and location are the reasons we frequent this establishment. We usually order the spinach salad and it is so delicious. The dishes are presented beautifully, the seating is comfortable and the parking is easy. Stormy, our incredible server, was welcoming, kind, humorous, friendly, efficient, positive, professional and attentive. She treated us so well throughout. We will continue to be loyal customers because our dining experiences are always excellent.

Had valentines dinner there. Steaks were excellent. Service professional. They gave us a valentines card! Very popular restaurant and bar. Highly recommend it.

Meals were excellent. The seat level of the booth was a little higher than optimal but they didn’t all look that way. The place was quite busy so our server seemed a little rushed but took care of us well. I would recommend it and would return.

We recently visited The Village Tavern for the first time and had a mixed experience.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by the hostess, Alivia, who asked if we had a reservation. While that’s a standard question, we watched an elderly group in front of us receive a rather curt response from her when they explained they had difficulty making a reservation online. Her sharp reply, “I was just asking if you had a reservation, you don’t need one” came off as cold and unwelcoming. When it was our turn, we told her we had a party of four and asked about seating options since we’d never been there. She seemed visibly annoyed by the question and was generally disengaged throughout the interaction. As the first point of contact for guests, I’d highly recommend some customer service training, or at the very least, a friendlier demeanor. We all have off days, but being visibly unhappy in a customer-facing role leaves a sour first impression.
Thankfully, our server Cayden turned things around. He was kind, attentive, and made helpful suggestions throughout our meal. The food arrived quickly and was overall enjoyable. We started with the artichoke dip, a small serving of dip but a very generous pile of chips. Despite the imbalance, the dip was hot, cheesy, and flavorful.
The kids’ menu was a standout, great variety and surprisingly affordable (cheaper than a McDonald’s kid’s meal!). The new crispy buttermilk sandwich was a hit, and the sweet potato fries were perfectly crisp. The French dip was also delicious, with generous portions that left us full and satisfied.
The drink menu is extensive, featuring wine, liquor, cordials, and craft cocktails. We visited during brunch, where they advertise $2 off certain cocktails, although that discount wasn’t applied to our bill (we didn’t mention it). They also offer half-off wine on Wednesdays, which wine lovers will appreciate given their large selection.
The atmosphere is dark but elegant, very clean, spacious, and with great acoustics. You can actually enjoy a conversation without shouting.
Overall, it’s a solid spot for food and drinks, with great service at the table but a rocky start at the door. If they could improve their front-of-house hospitality, it would make for a much better overall experience.

Everything we ordered was really good. Only let down was the mashed potatoes that lacked flavor.
