POV: You just discovered the most scenic steakhouse in Scottsdale ✨
📍 J&G Steakhouse
6000 E Camelback Rd
Scottsdale, AZ 85251
We recently visited J&G Steakhouse at The Phoenician and had such a great dinner overlooking Scottsdale. The raw bar and tuna tartare were standouts to start, followed by the wagyu tomahawk ribeye and a lineup of amazing sides. My favorites were the potato gratin, roasted mushrooms and mac cheese. Between the delicious food and stunning views, this is the perfect spot for a special night out in Scottsdale!

Every Day Happy Hour in Phoenix ✨
We heard Blanco Cocina & Cantina 🌮☀️'s new happy hour is now available every day, so we had to stop by and check it out! We ordered a few of our favorites, including their Chips and Queso and Chicken Taquitos. We also tried some of their new happy hour menu items including the Chicken Pastor Skewers, Tuna Tostadas and the flight of three mini frozen margaritas for $14!
Happy Hour is now Monday through Friday from 3–6 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m.–2 p.m. ✨

People are lining up at 4 a.m. for these pastries… and after getting a preview of the full menu, I totally get the hype. 🥐

I recently stopped by and got to try the full lineup of ’s creations, including the pain suisse, croissant, viral cookie, and other laminated pastries the bakery has quickly become famous for!
Everything was buttery, flaky and layered to perfection. It’s no surprise they’ve been selling out within just a few hours of opening 💫
Open Wednesday through Sunday from 8 a.m. until sold out… and yes, people really are showing up before sunrise!
