So, I've been wanting to try AZ 88 for awhile now, and this Friday this was the spot chosen for double date night... yay. With all the hype about this place I felt like we were in for a treat, but unfortunately, we all left wondering what the heck everyone is talking about.\n\nAs far as the restaurant itself, it really is a cool place. I loved the decor and I heard the bathroom was awesome (from the Hubs). The patio and bar looked very inviting and were packed on a Friday night. Our service was so-so. I didn't think our waitress was too friendly, and it seemed like we were trying to cheer her up somehow... it was weird. Also, my husband was served a flat beer, but she did replace it, which was nice. The food itself wasn't anything special. I did like my AZ 88 chicken sandwich, but everyone else wasn't impressed with what they got. I found the side items that were served with the sandwiches somewhat odd- cold veggies, fries and some fruit...\n\nBasically, I think I would go back just for drinks, but being this is a north Scottsdale bar they are quite expensive. I'm pretty sure I'll just save my money for some of the other awesome restaurants in the Old Town area.
