​
Calling all sushi lovers! Scottsdale-Road.com can't get enough of Bisutoro Sushi Bar and Grill. Our recent visit proved to be one of the best sushi experiences in the valley. The skilled sushi chefs at Bisutoro use top-quality ingredients to craft some of the most flavorful rolls we've had the pleasure of devouring. Simply put, the food is fantastic!
​
While the cuisine exceeded our expectations, the service at the bar left room for improvement. Drinks took nearly 25 minutes to reach our table, hinting at an under-staffing issue. Despite this hiccup, Bisutoro is definitely worth a visit. The cozy atmosphere and high-quality sushi make it a top choice for a delightful dinner or a cozy date night.
If you go, don’t miss out on their signature cocktails. We highly recommend the Muy Thai and the Sezchuan Sour—both are fantastic and will leave you wanting more!
​
Scottsdale-Road.com loves Bisutoro's menu and highly recommends it for sushi lovers seeking a memorable dining experience. IT'S HOT!

Scottsdale Road DOES NOT recommend Corrado's
At Scottsdale-Road.com, we love good Italian food, so it's unfortunate that Corrado's didn't quite measure up. We did find one highlight on an otherwise average experience - the wait staff were friendly, accommodating, and attentive. The owner/chef was present and couldn't have been more gracious. We always love to highlight the small business community in Scottsdale, but when we have to call attention to a less than satisfactory experience, it's an unfortunate reminder. Corrado's - it's not so hot. . .

The menu boasts classic offerings like prime rib and filet mignon, complemented perfectly by a generous portion of sautéed mushrooms.

Don't be surprised when you enter Durant's through the backdoor via the kitchen—that's just how they do it here. It's a unique and charming start to a classic dining experience, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.
The experience at Durant's is wonderful, with tasty food and impeccable service—the trifecta of dining out. With all this going for Durant's, you'd think it's the perfect restaurant. Well, almost. According to Scottsdale-Road.com, the price of dining here is quite high. For the money, there are at least a dozen other steakhouses in the valley that we’d recommend over Durant's. It's definitely the atmosphere that makes Durant's worth at least one visit. Enjoy your experience, and tell them Scottsdale-Road.com sent you.

Scottsdale Road DOES NOT recommend Corrado's
At Scottsdale-Road.com, we love good Italian food, so it's unfortunate that Corrado's didn't quite measure up. We did find one highlight on an otherwise average experience - the wait staff were friendly, accommodating, and attentive. The owner/chef was present and couldn't have been more gracious. We always love to highlight the small business community in Scottsdale, but when we have to call attention to a less than satisfactory experience, it's an unfortunate reminder. Corrado's - it's not so hot. . .

Scottsdale Road Likes Durant's Restaurant
​
Bluewater Grill is indeed a highlight for seafood enthusiasts. Located in Phoenix, this restaurant offers a memorable dining experience with a diverse and exceptional menu. Some standout recommendations include: the Barramundi Special as well as the Blackened Swordfish - both exceptional while being distinctly different. We started with the Grilled Octopus and just knew it was a prelude to even better things to come.
​
Bluewater Grill also offers a variety of signature cocktails including the Coconut Margarita which comes highly recommended by the staff at Scottsdale-Road.com.
Bluewater Grill not only excels in its seafood offerings but also in its outstanding service. From the warm welcome at the door to the final bill, the staff ensures a top-notch dining experience.
