Not at all impressed. A friend and I were recommended this place because it has fast wifi. We went there to do homework and write, and let the server know we would be there for a while, hoping they could put us in the back and out of the way. They put us right in the front. No problem, it wasn't very busy, right? Wrong. Even though there were PLENTY of areas to sit for incoming guests (not sure why there were any incoming guests, this place is awful), we could hear all of the front of house staff standing around the host stand blatantly bad mouthing us and complaining that we were there too long. The thing that most upsets me is WHY offer free wifi if you are going to bash people who use it! Furthermore, once confronted, the server then came back and lied when we had CLEARLY heard her. Don't bother going here. The food is decent (I really loved the mozzarella sticks) but the service is horrible and unacceptable. I'm sad that I'll never go back because those mozzarella sticks were amazing! Get it together Native New Yorker!

We got food poisoning here! Big disappointment because our food and experience was so wonderful. We both had the tasting menu which had two fish dishes on it. My suggestion would be to stay away from seafood when you are not by the ocean!

The service at this restaurant is horrible. My friend and I had wanted to go to the Phoenician lobby for burgers, but they were going to close, so we went here. Basically, Delux is one of those places that charges you Phoenician-like rates and puts on the same kind of politically correct show with the fancy-pants decor, but the service is at the same level as McDonald's. First of all, the service is slow. And the waiter was moderately unpleasant from the beginning. And they sat us at a tiny table for 2. So far, no big deal. But then the impatient staff comes over and kept trying to take away our dishes. "Are you finished with that plate?", the waiter asked, when I was only half finished with the burger. Eventually, they swooped in and took the plate out without asking. They also took other stuff of mine and threw it away. The manager is some girl barely out of high school with a sassy attitude, and even before I explained my situation, you could tell she could care less. (She eventually found some of my stuff, then lied and said it hadn't been in the garbage.) Then, when the server sees me leaving no tip, he starts swearing at me, and when we leave, he makes a point to open the door and say "Thanks for nothing". Little did he realize that since I put the meal on my credit card, my friend left the tip in cash. A 22% tip. So much for service. We could have gone to the Phoenician and they would have blown us kisses even if we didn't tip. And if they would have taken my stuff and thrown it away without asking, they probably would have given me a free room. That's the difference between real class and service, and fakers like the kind who work at Delux. I am never going back ever again, and I'm sure until the doors close, no one at Delux will care about my return, or that of anyone else's. Customers seem to be the impediment to their running what would otherwise be, in their opinion, a great restaurant.

Tucked into Old Towne Scottsdale, near to a Philly Cheesesteak place, is a nice little place called Rockbar. The name says it all. It is a place to go and have a few drinks and listen to some great music. Lately, they have been featuring Hucklebuck, an awesome coverband, and the place always gets jumping when they are on stage! The drinks are good and strong, and not badly priced. No food is served, but they do allow you to order from the Philly Cheese steak place, thru their computer, and they will deliver it to you in there. Gluten/Celiac note: No cider beers here unfortunately... must stick with the hard liquors.
