text: This is probably my favorite spot in Scottsdale Kaz is awesome I love that it is hidden and hard to findonly people who know it is there go in They have the most extensive wine list I have ever seen which at first was intimidating but ultimately there is something for everyone They have bottles ranging from all the way up to how could you not find something that you likennIn addition they have a great menu of tapas and plates that are great for sharing They continuously update their menu to reflect the seasons and their wines by the glass change constantly I used to go every week and the list was always differentnnI usually go on Mondays and Thursdays for the live jazz Monday is a woman who sounds like Etta James she is fabulous and on Thursday they have a band that is probably the best jazz band I have ever seen You can call ahead and reserve a couch which is great for a group there is a minimum but it is pretty easy to meet with or more people who are eating and drinking I love the darkness it is very intimate It is a great date spot when the music is not playing it does get a little loud but awesome for say a group of fournnThe only complaint I have is about the service sometimes it is a little lacking but this is not the type of place you are in any rush to get in and out of so it is ok The atmosphere wine and food more than make up for it My other issue is with the cover charge I realize it is because they have live music but I feel like cover charges are for clubs I think they should have a minimum check amount and if you go over it you do not pay cover otherwise then you pay just a thought Still not a big enough deal to keep me from coming back week after weeknnPeter Kasperki owns Kaz and he has quite a few restaurants he also owns Cowboy Ciao Mexican Standoff Digestif Sea Saw and has more coming I have only been to Cowboy Ciao and Digestif but I really like both of them as well He knows what he is doing I have lived in the valley my whole life and I have yet to find a place similar to Kaz it truly is great especially in a sea of not so great places in Oldtown ScottsdalennOh and they are open until two and they serve until two No oh its we are shutting down for the night They will even let you order food until as long as you eat quick
