We've visited this place several times and haven't been disappointed once! They have it figured out; from service that makes you feel special to the great quality of wine and food options. Enjoyed watching the near seamless handoff and transition of servers to having Sebastian who provided excellent service and food recommendations. We'll be opening a Winery down the street in Oct 2015 and look forward to building a strong partnership with this fine establishment. Looking forward to future visits and checking out their original site on Chandler. Keep up the awesome work! Wishing you nothing but great success

Used to go to this place before the name change. It was okay then and okay now. Fiancee had the market street margarita. Good generous pour of Patron but way to much orange juice. More like a Tequila and orange juice with a hint of margarita. Tried a few small appetizers. The shrimp and crab cocktail that came with 4 decent size shrimp but only one small crab claw (??) was okay, as was the caprese salad which most of the tomato was ripe, but would have liked to see a slightly bigger portion and a stronger balsamic reduction. Again, okay but nothing that would really wow me. Did enjoy the DJ and the lively atmosphere. Service was attentive as well. I might be back but use this as a meeting place for a group of friends, grab a cocktail and head out to the next place.

I hadn't been here since the other wine bar closed down. The Living Room did a great remodel and the place is very stylish and energetic with an upscale feel. The spinach-artichoke dip and the cheeseburger sliders made for some tasty share-able appetizers. Where things went south was at the bar. I ordered a Union Jack IPA and the female bartender charged me $7 instead of the $6 that was listed on the menu. She said they round up after tax. Well tax in Scottsdale is 7.95% so my drink should have been $6.48 and rounding up to $7 is a blatant ripoff. I'm not sure if she is just a rogue bartender or there is a problem here with management. There's a lot to like about this place but keep a close eye out for bartenders lining their pockets at your expense.

Great place: Comfortable, relaxed, and great customer service with management actively engaged. Very clean including windows, bathrooms, and patio. Live music on Sunday's and a misting system for the patio that is on all the time.

My girlfriend and I came in yesterday for lunch. We fell in love with the decor and overall atmosphere immediately. Upon looking at the menu we found many things that caught our attention and got us even more excited. We started with the spinach artichoke dip, we both agreed it was the best we've had. The presentation of all the food was also excellent. The green chili burger and the strawberry gorgonzola salad were both very flavorful and well balanced! We finished with the cookie a la mode for desert, obviously. Exceptional, easy going service and overall experience!!!!
(5)Jordyn K.
I have been to The Living Room numerous times now and every time is absolutely wonderful. I have had dined in and ordered to go so many times. The awesome fries are... Well AWESOME! The Cobb Salad is also one of my favorites! The servers are so great, very attentive..and make you feel at home! Love Love Love! :)
(5)Todd K.
We had a great time enjoying several of the appetizers as our entree. They all hit the spot. The manager came over and helped (not in a pushy or salesman way) US Make our selections. Kind of like giving us the inside scoop on how to order what we looking for. Most of the items come in threes and there were two of us (you can order an extra one to make a fourth with no fighting. We'll be back.
(5)Donna C.
Love The Living Room! Two visits so far and we were not disappointed. Great vibe/decor, food, drinks, and service on both occasions. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The music was also fantastic. The patio is large and inviting. Our out of town guest, who is a well traveled foodie, can't wait to return! Note that this is a wine bar/cafe and the menu reflects this as it is geared towards apps/finger food with a bit of a twist/drinks. We love the overall ambiance and will be back!
(5)Veronica D.
I heard about this place through a friend and figured I'd try it out. My first time there I had probably one of the best kale Caesar salads I've ever had before. I found myself craving it last night so went there again. This time along with the bomb kale Caesar i ordered the awesome fries--I know fries are fries but these were legit ass fries and whatever sauce that came with them was legit too. Ended the night licking the bottom of the pan our pizza cookie came in . Overall cute atmosphere, good food/wine and great service!
(5)Rosanne K.
Amazing wine bar. Really great wine selection and food. This is the perfect place to meet girlfriends for drinks. Really casual environment and the best music selection on the weekends. The service is really good. This place is a must go!
(5)Jill T.
Ok...food was good. Priced typical Scottsdale over priced. Service was meh...forgot our oysters and everything took a longggggg time...wasn't even a full house.
(3)Megan R.
Great service. Great drinks. The regular behind the bar was a little much though. Shouting that someone rufied him was just absurd. I don't care how much money you spend you shouldn't be aloud free range of the bar area like you own the place
(3)Raquel P.
Excellent! Great menu selection, love the ambiance and the drinks rock! My new favorite on Market Street.
(5)Sharon J.
For ambiance and drinks, it was very enjoyable but the food, not so much. I ordered a prosciutto and Brie sandwich and it was basically made with dry, white bread-like toast, one piece of prosciutto and I think there was some Brie in there. Couldn't taste it....Not quite sure. SO disappointing!
(2)Nicole F.
I have to compliment the service here! Crowded Friday night happy hour, my friend and I were lucky to find a small table in an outside corner - usually this is where the servers forget to come by - but we had great service. A very attentive waitress, our food was served hot and our wine glasses were never empty! :)
(4)Scott P.
So much better than Armitage! Service is wonderful and drinks are priced right. Great happy hour as well. Patio is wonderful. I've only had appetizers, but I have been quite pleased. Give it a try.
(5)Darla L.
This is one of my favorite places. I absolutely love sitting on the patio in the smoothly chairs, relaxing, drinking wine, and eating good food. Everything I've ordered there has been very tasty. The service has been great every time and they are dog friendly. I definitely recommend them for a laid back, enjoyable kind of night. Great for dates and girl time get togethers.
(4)Laura W.
It was an interesting evening. It does have great ambience. Bartenders (ladies) were not very friendly - they did their job, not saying they were bad - just not fun, when you normally visit a place. Food was good - a bit pricey. Happy Hour Wine was priced very well. Introduced myself as a Concierge and, believe me, we can (or not), send a lot of people to restaurant venues and Manager could have cared less. It was an ok evening but not at the top of my list. We were at Flemings on Monday and it was a lot nicer.
(3)Kimberly W.
Delicious brunch! Awesome Bloody Mary Bar! Super friendly service and amazing decor! 1 of my neighborhood favs!
(5)Lauren M.
Stopped by for lunch and loved it! The pizza was on a crispy flatbread which I wasn't expecting but really enjoyed and our server was lovely.
(5)Anna K.
Such an awesome environment! Cool vibe, great service, awesome happy hour prices and Mikey is the best!!!! :)
(5)Eat R.
Ok, let's get real. The music was too loud to talk. The food did not matter because we could not hear each other. We may go back, but I am not rushing back any time soon
(2)Jason B.
Amazing place; love it!
(5)Michelle M.
Great atmosphere! Our waiter suggested a really good Spanish Red Wine that went great with my Traditional and Italian Bruschetta. The French fries and the chocolate fondue for dessert is the perfect night topper! A DJ came on and played some 90's and Top 40's hits. This is a great place for a girls night.
(5)Paulette M.
What a great brunch- the French toast was fabulous and the Chiliquilies were AMAZING-the presentation and flavors of both dishes was exceptional. The Bloody Mary bar allowed one to flavor and garnish with abandon- even strips of bacon! The waitstaff kept our water and coffee cups filled. This was our first visit, but the presentation, flavors, and prices will keep us coming back.
(5)Anna S.
This place has become my ultimate favorite place to go out on the weekends! I love the set up! So chill yet full of energy! The service was amazing! The food..omg! Best place for your once a week cheat meall! Its kind of the new cool lounge to be at in North Scottsdale.
(5)Stephanie C.
Fun place! Just went for a few drinks and some snacks and it was perfect evening! Cool atmosphere, friendly, laid back staff. We're from out of town but if we lived here we'd definitely make the living room one of our regular spots.
(5)Lindsay G.
We had been awaiting the opening of this after watching the slow crash and burn of the former wine bar. We were hoping for a fresh new spot, with great service and a more extensive wine and food menu. The Living Room delivered! We stopped in last Friday night for a glass of wine and were shocked that there was a wait! They were able to squeeze us in the packed patio and we were able to enjoy our drinks there. Live DJ on the weekends is a nice touch. Service was good....needs some work but I will chalk it up to it being new and them working the kinks out! Hoping to try out some food next visit!
(5)Wendi W.
I'm giving The Living Room three stars not because the food wasn't good because it was actually very good. Not because the atmosphere was bad because it was really lovely and very beautifully done. But because the DJ in the corner was playing the music so loud that you had to shout to one another to try and have conversation. Even asked the server and she said they would not lower the volume!! The atmosphere did not lend itself to a DJ but would have been so much nicer to have a single guitarist playing some nice mellow music after all it is suppose to be like in your "living room!"
(3)Sharon C.
We were big fans of Armitage and were anxious to see how The Living Room would stack up. We've now been there 3 times. Love the decor, fun menu, and decent wines by the glass. The only complaint is that last night the music level was so high that our waiter couldn't hear us and vice versa. Our table of 4 (inside) had to shout to hear one another and ended up having to have two one-on-one conversations since a discussion involving all four of us was impossible. I love a place with good music and the song selection here was cool, but the volume was WAY over the top and it ruined the ambiance. Fix that and we'll be back every week.
(3)John G.
I really enjoyed myself. It was the second time I had gone there and both times the staff was extremely friendly. And the food is great too... I had the hummus platter and the chicken pesto flatbread. Thumbs up!
(5)Laura C.
Love this place!! The food is delish, the atmosphere so relaxing, wait staff friendly and attentive. Have introduced several of my friends to this great place and they all love it!!!
(5)A B.
First visit on a Sunday afternoon. Great wine and apps and live acoustic music - cozy pub atmosphere. Manager David greeted us personally and made some recommendations. We will be back!
(5)Marlo H.
Visited for the first time last weekend. The place was packed on a Friday night - granted both the Super Bowl and Phoenix Open were in town. Food was very good. We ordered the prime rib sliders, Korean steak lettuce cups, and chocolate fondue for desert. All were delicious. Service was great - especially considering how busy it was. Our only complaint was the music was too loud. There were four of us at the table, and it was impossible to have a conversation between all of us. Turn down the music and I will add another star! Also, note we were there at about 7:00 pm - a time we want to relax, have a cocktail, and have good conversation with friends. I can see it being louder a little later.... We have driven by on a Sunday early evening and heard live acoustic music/singing; I guess that is more the vibe we were looking for. All said and done, we will definitely give it another try!
(4)Tamara M.
Love this place and happy they are in our neighborhood! I go there both with my hubby or a happy hour with the girls. The service is very good, and they all remember you when you walk in and make a point of coming over to say hi. We mostly go for cocktails , but the food I've tried is quite good as well. Comfortable room with a good vibe! We are regulars !

We have been wanting to try this place since it opened. We had some out of town guests so we decided to take them here. When I got there, there was no seating outside and it was beautiful out so I asked the manager if a spot opened up could we take it? He said of course. When a group of people left, he was on it. Even though they were busy, he was still keeping an eye out. The staff was amazing & so was the food. We had 6 of us and we ordered 6 glasses of wine and the manager came over and said he could save us a little bit of money by selling us a bottle, and I dont think they even have bottles on their menu. I thought that was great! I don't know a lot of places that would do that. Most places want you to spend more money. We were there for about 4 hours, lots of bottles of wine and we had their hummus plate, prime rib sliders, brusetta and fondue for dessert. Our waiter was awesome! We will for sure be back! The only complaint I have is that the happy hour, to me starts too early. My hubby doesn't normally get home from the office until 530. So I told my hubby that he needs to get home earlier so we can hit the happy hour often. Great place!!
(5)Ann Y.
This place was such a pleasant surprise! We had dinner with friends and the food was phenomenal. The waiter guided us through the menu and offered us some exceptional choices. The lamb chops were amazing, they fell of the bone. The salmon was so moist and grilled to perfection. The appetizer of spinach and artichoke dip was so creaming and smooth. The dessert was a fondue of chocolate with chopped up apples, strawberries, pretzels and marshmallows. Omg! It was mouth watering! The music was definitely retro and the atmosphere is warm, quiet and relaxing. This place is a jewel it sparkles like a diamond in the back of a wooden box. This place is a must GO-TO place in North Scottsdale!
(5)Parsa H.
We work in an office and usually order from local places and we decided to give this place a try, the menu looked good enough. So...we ordered 2 of the bacon blue burgers and one tuna melt for carry out. First off they don't write anything on the boxes so we got to guess which one was cooked medium and which one was medium well (we guessed wrong). As I'm sitting there eating my coworkers sinful overly cooked burger I hear a shriek and the girl who had the tuna melt found a freaking metal screw in it.....no lie, a sharp metal screw that she had to spit out. I want to believe deep down that it wasn't put in there on purpose but where in a kitchen would you have loose screws laying around that could just fall into the tuna....first and last time we order at this merchant of death restaurant. Two stars only because the "awesome" fries are actually pretty awesome. Update: they were nice enough to give us a $50 gift card to make up for their attempted murder, 4stars!
(4)Kate K.
I'm a fan of the Living Room in Chandler and this new location did not disappoint! The menu is the same as far as I can tell, and the interior is similarly inviting. There is a HUGE patio, however I chose to eat inside since it was pretty chilly outside. Unfortunately it was just as cold inside... Considering I was the only person in there on a Saturday at lunch time, perhaps it would bode well for them to offer an early happy hour or lunch specials...or perhaps the word just hasn't gotten out yet. I didn't love Armitage, but hopefully the Living Room will succeed here.
(4)Martin A.
One of the owners, constantly hangs out, he should call this high School popularity contest. Did this guy open a place to be popular? I like the Livingroom but it's just weird that this owner hangs out and make people feel pretty uncomfortable, it's creepy. This is a new bar to a neighborhood I have lived in for 12 years, the concept is good but this is a family area and nobody what's to be made to feel uncomfortable by strange and uncomfortable environment. We were over charged for drinks we did not have. The food is average and over priced, there are several other options within the same area that are more reasonable and have better food. Great Party environment and cool to hangout but over all one star is appropriate!
(1)Patrick R.
Really disappointing. Feels like brunch is forced here. Frittata - had a few pieces of sausage, no parm and some spinach. If I didn't put hot sauce on it I would not have eaten it because it would have just been a cooked egg. Over easy egg - came out raw in the middle time 1. Yes we want the yolk runny NOT the white part, sent them back. Came out the same time 2. Eggs are not hard to cook, if you claim brunch figure it out Service - friendly but slow Coffee - sad this was the high point For the amount of breakfast options in the area there are WAY better options

(Lyrics - Divinyls - I Touch Myself) I love Bo Bites, I want you to know me When I feel hungry, I want to go feasting I research myself, I want to go Yelping I order myself, I want you to show me I don't want something else When I think about it, The Living Room Oh, I don't want something else, oh no Oh, no, oh, no This is a pretty hot place for to hangout for some wine and drinks! I came here with a large group of people and the place was popping already. The living room the perfect title to describe the ambiance plus a full on bar of course. It was pretty warm that day so I didn't order any wine, but this is definitely a wine and appetizer joint. I totally went the opposite and shot for a beer and an entree flatbread! Overall, the Big Pig; they call it, is meat pizza. It came along with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and salami. I would defer from the "Big" part since it was appetizer size in my opinion, but it was plated and pretty darn good; salty and savory ingredients atop a warm crusty flatbread along with crushed peppers and cheese. Guess you can say I was the "Big Pig"! I really enjoyed ambiance and plus the service was on top of things. Again we had a large group, but they were able to accommodate us without a skip! If you're ever in the DC Ranch area; I would totally recommend this spot! - Enjoy!

Stopped here for lunch today! Very very cute place to eat. Would be awesome for a Sunday brunch. I love the rustic look outside and the interior decor, very appealing. The people working there were super nice and friendly which is awesome. The menu was a pretty good size. Usually I would go for breakfast, but the lunch looked awesome so I decided on that. I went with my family, and we all found what we wanted pretty quickly! My mom and sister shared a chicken sandwich, my dad got the margherita flatbread, and I got bruschetta. I chose four: traditional (tomato basil mozzarella), mushroom, orchard (apples, fig, brie, honey), and one with goat cheese, pepper jam, and peppers. My meal was so good, I was asked which one was my favorite and I had trouble deciding because they were all so delicious. I think the orchard one was probably my favorite. Sometimes with bruchetta there's too much bread or it gets super soggy and gross, but this one was good. A nice bread to topping ratio. My dad loved his flatbread, and my sister and mom liked the sandwich. I stole a few fries from them and they were good. Portions were a little smaller than expected for the bruchetta and flatbread, but otherwise no complaints on the food. Also we finished with a pizookie which was an incredible decision because it was absolutely delicious. Only real downside was how loud this place was, we had to almost yell to hear each other, and it was not even that crowded. I'd like to go back though! I bet it's a fun place to go at night also.
(4)Emelia W.
Went here with two friends and had the prime rib sliders, the Korean lettuce cups, and artichoke dip. Overall the food wasn't bad but I will probably never opt to go here again. I mean it's not terrible but I think the food was somewhat disappointing considering the price, and it was super LOUD. I felt like I was almost yelling to talk to my friend across from me. Pros- helpful staff, comfy seating, interesting menu choices Cons- Loud music and even louder drunk people, ok food, overpriced
(2)Leah F.
Went here for a double date night with our friends and had a blast !!!! good food good drinks and Great service !!!! We initially walked in and the place was packed so we dined outside the music was blasting inside so of your into that scene this is your place but outside was beautiful they had the misters going to it was not to hot out , The atmosphere is very cozy yet modern. the cocktails were made strong not wimpy like most places. We ordered a bunch of food and shared the pretzel with cheese , 4 orders of different sushi rolls the Tk rolls were amazing we will be back for sure because of those , A great cheese board , and lamb dish and the prime Rib French dip was very good . All the staff was super friendly and attentive and made good recommendations. We will be back for sure :) Thanks for a great date night living room
(4)Gordon L.
Came here to watch game 6 for the first time and they definitely had a great vibe. I was seated right away near the bar. The service was phenomenal and my water was constantly refilled. I had the French dip with the homemade chips that was perfect and a shock top. My girlfriend ordered the cheese/meat board and loved if! Definitely coming back in the future. Great vibes and good prices!

My husband and I came here two days in a row. After we tried it on Saturday, we had to come back Sunday. It was just that good! Originally, we decided to try The Living Room on Saturday because another restaurant stopped serving breakfast at 11am. Lucky for us, the Living Room serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday starting at 9am. The breakfast menu has roughly 10 entrees plus some drinks and sides. I decided to try the French toast with pecans and maple cream. My husband went with the rancher's plate (two eggs, sausage patties, polenta, and bread). We also ordered a side of bacon to share and I ordered a vanilla latte. First and foremost, the latte was amazing. Upon first sip, I exclaimed how great it was and shocked my husband. (I will admit, I am a bit of a coffee snob and it is so hard to find a place that has both great coffee and great breakfast. The Living Room has both. This is a major win in my book.) As for our entries, my French toast was amazing. There were 4 huge slices of bread dusted with powdered sugar and topped with pecans. It also came with a small pot of maple whipped cream and maple syrup on the side. The toast itself was extremely rich and creamy. The center was soft like bread pudding and melted in my mouth. My husband loved it as well and kept stealing bites. My husband's plate was just as good. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the sausage was extremely tasty, and the polenta was great dipped the egg yolk. The bacon was delicious as well. I thought it could have been a bit crispier, but my husband loved it. When we came back Sunday, I ordered the French toast again and my husband tried the chilaquiles with a side of bacon. Both of us also ordered vanilla lattes. One of the waiters recognized us from our previous trip and was extremely friendly. When our lattes arrived, the server asked how the latte was and explained the owner/manager is a coffee enthusiast and wants to ensure everything tastes great. We gushed how great everything was and I even ordered a latte to go when we were on our way out. On top of brunch, The Living Room also serves lunch/dinner and we will have to check that out. However, as far as brunch goes, we had a great experience both times. The food was delicious, the coffee was tasty, and the wait staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new great brunch spot. I will definitely be back and soon!
(5)Pete B.
Looking for new places to go in Scottsdale and found the Living Room. I stopped in for a glass of wine, which was good. Bartender was a nice guy. Would have ordered food, but was distracted by the poor management. These people are completely oblivious to the fact that they're working and no one seems to have control. It's like a college bar. One guy, in a short sleeve gray polo shirt, seemed to be some kind of manager, but was throwing back glasses of beer like a customer and spent the whole time on his phone or socializing with employees who could have been focusing on customers. It looks like a really good place, but it just feels cheap. Too many options to make this a go-to. I think John Taffer would have a field day here.

Great atmosphere wonderful staff. Best thing on menu is pine in sliders just ask for gorgonzola on the side it's overpowers. Brunch is great too

I chose four: traditional (tomato basil mozzarella), mushroom, orchard (apples, fig, brie, honey), and one with goat cheese, pepper jam, and peppers. My meal was so good, I was asked which one was my favorite and I had trouble deciding because they were all so delicious. I think the orchard one was probably my favorite. Sometimes with bruchetta there's too much bread or it gets super soggy and gross, but this one was good. A nice bread to topping ratio. My dad loved his flatbread, and my sister and mom liked the sandwich. I stole a few fries from them and they were good. Portions were a little smaller than expected for the bruchetta and flatbread, but otherwise no complaints on the food. Also we finished with a pizookie which was an incredible decision because it was absolutely delicious. Only real downside was how loud this place was, we had to almost yell to hear each other, and it was not even that crowded. I'd like to go back though! I bet it's a fun place to go at night also.

Went here with two friends and had the prime rib sliders, the Korean lettuce cups, and artichoke dip. Overall the food wasn't bad but I will probably never opt to go here again. I mean it's not terrible but I think the food was somewhat disappointing considering the price, and it was super LOUD. I felt like I was almost yelling to talk to my friend across from me. Pros- helpful staff, comfy seating, interesting menu choices Cons- Loud music and even louder drunk people, ok food, overpriced

Amazing place; love it!

Went here for a double date night with our friends and had a blast !!!! good food good drinks and Great service !!!! We initially walked in and the place was packed so we dined outside the music was blasting inside so of your into that scene this is your place but outside was beautiful they had the misters going to it was not to hot out , The atmosphere is very cozy yet modern. the cocktails were made strong not wimpy like most places. We ordered a bunch of food and shared the pretzel with cheese , 4 orders of different sushi rolls the Tk rolls were amazing we will be back for sure because of those , A great cheese board , and lamb dish and the prime Rib French dip was very good . All the staff was super friendly and attentive and made good recommendations. We will be back for sure :) Thanks for a great date night living room

Came here to watch game 6 for the first time and they definitely had a great vibe. I was seated right away near the bar. The service was phenomenal and my water was constantly refilled. I had the French dip with the homemade chips that was perfect and a shock top. My girlfriend ordered the cheese/meat board and loved if! Definitely coming back in the future. Great vibes and good prices!

I'm a fan of the Living Room in Chandler and this new location did not disappoint! The menu is the same as far as I can tell, and the interior is similarly inviting. There is a HUGE patio, however I chose to eat inside since it was pretty chilly outside. Unfortunately it was just as cold inside... Considering I was the only person in there on a Saturday at lunch time, perhaps it would bode well for them to offer an early happy hour or lunch specials...or perhaps the word just hasn't gotten out yet. I didn't love Armitage, but hopefully the Living Room will succeed here.
(4)Tamara M.
Love this place and happy they are in our neighborhood! I go there both with my hubby or a happy hour with the girls. The service is very good, and they all remember you when you walk in and make a point of coming over to say hi. We mostly go for cocktails , but the food I've tried is quite good as well. Comfortable room with a good vibe! We are regulars !

My husband and I came here two days in a row. After we tried it on Saturday, we had to come back Sunday. It was just that good! Originally, we decided to try The Living Room on Saturday because another restaurant stopped serving breakfast at 11am. Lucky for us, the Living Room serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday starting at 9am. The breakfast menu has roughly 10 entrees plus some drinks and sides. I decided to try the French toast with pecans and maple cream. My husband went with the rancher's plate (two eggs, sausage patties, polenta, and bread). We also ordered a side of bacon to share and I ordered a vanilla latte. First and foremost, the latte was amazing. Upon first sip, I exclaimed how great it was and shocked my husband. (I will admit, I am a bit of a coffee snob and it is so hard to find a place that has both great coffee and great breakfast. The Living Room has both. This is a major win in my book.) As for our entries, my French toast was amazing. There were 4 huge slices of bread dusted with powdered sugar and topped with pecans. It also came with a small pot of maple whipped cream and maple syrup on the side. The toast itself was extremely rich and creamy. The center was soft like bread pudding and melted in my mouth. My husband loved it as well and kept stealing bites. My husband's plate was just as good. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the sausage was extremely tasty, and the polenta was great dipped the egg yolk. The bacon was delicious as well. I thought it could have been a bit crispier, but my husband loved it. When we came back Sunday, I ordered the French toast again and my husband tried the chilaquiles with a side of bacon. Both of us also ordered vanilla lattes. One of the waiters recognized us from our previous trip and was extremely friendly. When our lattes arrived, the server asked how the latte was and explained the owner/manager is a coffee enthusiast and wants to ensure everything tastes great. We gushed how great everything was and I even ordered a latte to go when we were on our way out. On top of brunch, The Living Room also serves lunch/dinner and we will have to check that out. However, as far as brunch goes, we had a great experience both times. The food was delicious, the coffee was tasty, and the wait staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new great brunch spot. I will definitely be back and soon!
(5)Pete B.
Looking for new places to go in Scottsdale and found the Living Room. I stopped in for a glass of wine, which was good. Bartender was a nice guy. Would have ordered food, but was distracted by the poor management. These people are completely oblivious to the fact that they're working and no one seems to have control. It's like a college bar. One guy, in a short sleeve gray polo shirt, seemed to be some kind of manager, but was throwing back glasses of beer like a customer and spent the whole time on his phone or socializing with employees who could have been focusing on customers. It looks like a really good place, but it just feels cheap. Too many options to make this a go-to. I think John Taffer would have a field day here.

Great atmosphere wonderful staff. Best thing on menu is pine in sliders just ask for gorgonzola on the side it's overpowers. Brunch is great too
(5)Mike P.
I came across this place recently and it's now my primary local bar. The atmosphere and ambience of this place really sucked me in. I'm not a fan of big crowds or loud bars, and while this place gets crowded at night you can generally enjoy a nice glass of wine before the rush at happy hour. Definitely a more sophisticated and professional clientele. See Major League Baseball and PGA tour players here a lot. Can't go wrong pairing the Liberty School Cabernet with The Mediterranean Board appetizer. Cheers!
(5)Kevin S.
Great atmosphere - Lots of variety of seating - couches and comfy chairs - including out on the patio. Service was awesome. Seemed to be more of a team than just one person. Any server walking by checked in and helped if needed. Great food. Club sandwich was good. 2 people had the French Dips and loved them. Timing was off for the chicken on one of the salads but minor hiccup in a great meal.
(5)Lauren R.
This wine bar is poppin. Mikey is a really good server. He will take care of you. I don't like the food as much as the drinks though. On Saturday and Sunday there are $5 mimosas and $5 Bloody Mary.
(4)Patrick R.
Really disappointing. Feels like brunch is forced here. Frittata - had a few pieces of sausage, no parm and some spinach. If I didn't put hot sauce on it I would not have eaten it because it would have just been a cooked egg. Over easy egg - came out raw in the middle time 1. Yes we want the yolk runny NOT the white part, sent them back. Came out the same time 2. Eggs are not hard to cook, if you claim brunch figure it out Service - friendly but slow Coffee - sad this was the high point For the amount of breakfast options in the area there are WAY better options
(2)Michael H.
RECOMMEND: we have heard how much fun The Living Room is, so we decided to pop in and see for ourselves. They remodeled the inside and it now looks and feels nothing like the previous wine bar. The vibe and energy are great. This type of spot is welcomed up north and they should be very successful here. The staff is friendly, especially Steven the manager. Cool guy. We grabbed a couple of seats at the bar. I love how they have seats "behind the bar". The drinks are good and not a cup full of ice. I decided to order something to nosh on and selected the meat and cheese plate. Nice selection of meat and cheeses to choose from. We especially liked the fact that they were playing the UFC fight on TV. We will be back!
(5)Karissa A.
I heard good things from several coworkers about this place and took my friends to check it out. We weren't disappointed. The team service concept (we had several servers) seemed a little disorganized and disjointed, but it was Saturday evening so it was understandable that they were busy and not able to be super attentive. The drinks were good and we ordered several apps that were quite tasty. For the ambiance and area you get, the prices are not too bad. The craziest part is the people watching. My group was probably the youngest in the restaurant with the most original unaltered body parts.
(4)Denise M.
Went for lunch with friends and I'd giving the food 3 stars and atmosphere and service 4 stars. We didn't have wine but did have sandwiches which were nothing exciting making me want to return to try other things on the menu. Two of us had the chicken salad aioli sandwich on sourdough, the only kind of bread they have, which was bland, skimpy amount of chicken and even the bread was uneventful. Definitely overpriced. We choose this because our waiter told us this was the best sandwich on the menu! Our other friend got the turkey sandwich and she felt the same about that, bland, with a skimpy amount of turkey between two pieces of boring toasted bread. 3 skimpy sandwiches that totaled $37.00 without tip. I was really hoping this would be my first visit of many but there are way too many restaurants and wine bars in Scottsdale to spend my money at.
(3)Lindsey D.
I'm happy to see that Market Street DC Ranch has a fun spot for N. Scottsdale residents to enjoy a night out with some drinks in hand! Now, while I didn't get to partake in the drink portion of the experience (only a couple more months to go before Baby D arrives!), I did get to enjoy the atmosphere and a nice night out with my husband. The atmosphere here is lively without being too crazy. It's perfect for a date night out or if you are looking for a lively atmosphere without going to a bar or club. Now if you don't like wine, don't let title of wine bar fool you. It's got a full bar and plenty of non-wine options. Their food menu consists of plenty of options to share, including bruschetta boards, flat breads and sandwiches. Their food is good too! I had the chicken salad sandwich and my husband had the French Dip, both which were tasty! We also tried the bruschetta board which I highly recommend. I also noticed that they do brunch on the weekends! Mimosa's anyone!?
(4)Kerri R.
Always the BEST service! Very attentive and happy hour prices are the best! Can't beat the music here either! Love the DJ on th weekends. Great local spot!
(5)Kacey T.
Amazing ambience at this restaurant. They have absolutely delicious sangria and to die for French fries! The food is all very good, delicious bruschetta, and flat bread pizzas. The service was great and the staff was attentive to your needs but didn't feel like they are hovering over you. My absolute favorite thing, they have blankets available for the guests sitting outdoors. I would recommend this for a big party or for an intimate setting! Try it out!
(5)Taylor M.
get the superfood salad with grilled chicken and the meat and cheese board with olives. absolutely amazing. the California roll is delicious as well
(5)Cloey K.
Tonight was amaze balls. It started out with 1 glass of wine, which turned into 4 sloppy ones. Mr. Music Man hugged me, told me he loved me, signed my CD, and committed to having my babies. Meanwhile, I'm selling my best friend, Stephanie to Mr. Space Heater Waiter Manager Mike Man. He was so sweet. She was freezing, so he brought her a blanket, and a space heater in which we thought was a fan until we felt heat. He was very attentive to us, needless to say, and kept filling our drinks till we felt it. I then convinced Stephanie to have a "wet t-shirt concert," multiple times, which I meant "contest" (drunk girl can't speak problems). Did I tell you, I really loved the Mr. Music Baby Maker Music Man #dreamy. Our Manager Mike Man knows how to use hashtags. I then convinced Stephanie to roll up the blanket and put it in our purse, which he loved, because clearly I'm a comedian, and I kept making people laugh like Randy Johnson, and the 3 Coyotes Hockey retirees tonight (p.s. you can have my babies too). No joke. By the end of the night, we ended up in the parking lot convincing them to make us mac and cheese while I was talking to my two eses in spanish. #hashtag. Tonight was legit. The Living Room is legit. Mike was too legit to quit. Mr Music Man - he was on a whole other level (or lover your choice). Very romantic, casual, trendy, chandlier - sia type song, wine, brick walls, and living room. This is our new spot! Faux sho. P.P.S. No one was hurt in the making of this review. I'm feelin' the wine tonight. Clearly. Needless to stay Stephanie got a number out of tonight, and I got a boyfriend...?
(5)Leang E.
We came here as the Breakfast Joynt wait was too long, and so we ended up here for brunch. It was still a great choice as my fritata was delicious, and just the right portion. Coffee refills kept coming, and it was a very chill and relaxing atmosphere. The waitress was nice as well, and the prices were ok. I would love to come back for another meal in the day.
(4)Christine C.
Prime rib sliders were delish Loved the drinks And our server (Matt I believe was his name) was fantastic! Great service/cool ambiance Will definitely be back.
(5)Lucy B.
COCKROACHES! Myself and my three co-workers went for drinks and a few apps. Being in the resort industry, we wanted to check out the wine bar ourselves. Moving forward we will NEVER recommend The Living Room to our guest. When advised waitstaff of the cockroaches, he laughed and said,"Well, we do live in the desert. What can we do." We understand it's the desert, but pretend to care or remove the insects from view. Offer a solution of sorts. The Living Room is an over priced wine bar and glorified Mom hangout.
(1)Kathie M.
I would recommend his place if you weren't too concerned about having conversation with your meal. I thought the food was really great. We went for happy hour and had the bruschetta, lettuce wraps and shrimp appetizer and all were very good. They don't have an actual happy hour menu, just discounts on drinks. All of our severs were excellent. The idea of a living room decor is cute, but we probably won't frequent much unless we sit outside (not a good idea in Arizona's summer heat). It was just too noisy inside for us. Having said that, we are In our 60's, and can remember our parents saying the same kind of thing. So the younger crowd shouldn't have any problem with it. I would say go and check it out!
(3)Marisa S.
What a disappointment! We went to check it out, we sat at one end of the bar where it looks like a large communal table. We had a margarita and a blueberry lemon drop. Yuck, their well liquor must be the worst I have ever had. I imagine that is what gasoline would taste like. We could not finish those drinks. We decided to cut our loses and leave.
(2)Liz D.
Wow so surprised to read such mixed reviews! Our first experience there was great. We started with a big fat hot pretzel and my husband enjoyed the dipping mustards. I added melt brie to dip in. Whilst a touch expensive very delicious. My husband ordered a crispy flat bread with many toppings. I had the Korean lettuce wraps. We both tasted both. Delicious, although the wraps were a little spicy for my taste. We will definately return and taste other delicious offerings. I am usually suspicious of extremely varied menus but everything delivered around us looked wonderful. In looking over the selection I was not too thrilled with some of the sides combined with the protein I would select. Hopefully sides can be substituted! The service was great! Team waiting, smiling friendly faces.
(4)Nancy O.
* good service * good food * decent prices (we missed happy hour) * nice atmosphere. It seems pretentious, but it's not.
(4)Carol K.
I won't be going to The Living Room again. Our server couldn't remember who got what so we had to tell her. Five salads how hard is that? Write it down. Kale Ceasar salad, no meat, not worth the $11. The salad was loaded with salt and for the price not worth it at all.
(1)marty b.
If you like to yell at your companions & have trouble hearing any conversation, like overpriced mediocre food & want to beg for condiments......then this is the place for you!! Sat at the bar & the bartenders were good & did a good job. But are doubtful we will ever return. Too many other better options in the area.
(2)Paul B.
Great atmosphere. The waitstaff was incredible! The food was very good. They have an amazing patio for enjoying the outdoors. We went on a date here and we're very pleased with the food and the service. The atmosphere made the experience that much more enjoyable.
(4)Jordyn K.
I have been to The Living Room numerous times now and every time is absolutely wonderful. I have had dined in and ordered to go so many times. The awesome fries are... Well AWESOME! The Cobb Salad is also one of my favorites! The servers are so great, very attentive..and make you feel at home! Love Love Love! :)
(5)Todd K.
We had a great time enjoying several of the appetizers as our entree. They all hit the spot. The manager came over and helped (not in a pushy or salesman way) US Make our selections. Kind of like giving us the inside scoop on how to order what we looking for. Most of the items come in threes and there were two of us (you can order an extra one to make a fourth with no fighting. We'll be back.
(5)Donna C.
Love The Living Room! Two visits so far and we were not disappointed. Great vibe/decor, food, drinks, and service on both occasions. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The music was also fantastic. The patio is large and inviting. Our out of town guest, who is a well traveled foodie, can't wait to return! Note that this is a wine bar/cafe and the menu reflects this as it is geared towards apps/finger food with a bit of a twist/drinks. We love the overall ambiance and will be back!
(5)Veronica D.
I heard about this place through a friend and figured I'd try it out. My first time there I had probably one of the best kale Caesar salads I've ever had before. I found myself craving it last night so went there again. This time along with the bomb kale Caesar i ordered the awesome fries--I know fries are fries but these were legit ass fries and whatever sauce that came with them was legit too. Ended the night licking the bottom of the pan our pizza cookie came in . Overall cute atmosphere, good food/wine and great service!
(5)Rosanne K.
Amazing wine bar. Really great wine selection and food. This is the perfect place to meet girlfriends for drinks. Really casual environment and the best music selection on the weekends. The service is really good. This place is a must go!
(5)Jill T.
Ok...food was good. Priced typical Scottsdale over priced. Service was meh...forgot our oysters and everything took a longggggg time...wasn't even a full house.
(3)Megan R.
Great service. Great drinks. The regular behind the bar was a little much though. Shouting that someone rufied him was just absurd. I don't care how much money you spend you shouldn't be aloud free range of the bar area like you own the place
(3)Raquel P.
Excellent! Great menu selection, love the ambiance and the drinks rock! My new favorite on Market Street.
(5)Sharon J.
For ambiance and drinks, it was very enjoyable but the food, not so much. I ordered a prosciutto and Brie sandwich and it was basically made with dry, white bread-like toast, one piece of prosciutto and I think there was some Brie in there. Couldn't taste it....Not quite sure. SO disappointing!
(2)Nicole F.
I have to compliment the service here! Crowded Friday night happy hour, my friend and I were lucky to find a small table in an outside corner - usually this is where the servers forget to come by - but we had great service. A very attentive waitress, our food was served hot and our wine glasses were never empty! :)
(4)Scott P.
So much better than Armitage! Service is wonderful and drinks are priced right. Great happy hour as well. Patio is wonderful. I've only had appetizers, but I have been quite pleased. Give it a try.
(5)Darla L.
This is one of my favorite places. I absolutely love sitting on the patio in the smoothly chairs, relaxing, drinking wine, and eating good food. Everything I've ordered there has been very tasty. The service has been great every time and they are dog friendly. I definitely recommend them for a laid back, enjoyable kind of night. Great for dates and girl time get togethers.
(4)Laura W.
It was an interesting evening. It does have great ambience. Bartenders (ladies) were not very friendly - they did their job, not saying they were bad - just not fun, when you normally visit a place. Food was good - a bit pricey. Happy Hour Wine was priced very well. Introduced myself as a Concierge and, believe me, we can (or not), send a lot of people to restaurant venues and Manager could have cared less. It was an ok evening but not at the top of my list. We were at Flemings on Monday and it was a lot nicer.
(3)Kimberly W.
Delicious brunch! Awesome Bloody Mary Bar! Super friendly service and amazing decor! 1 of my neighborhood favs!
(5)Lauren M.
Stopped by for lunch and loved it! The pizza was on a crispy flatbread which I wasn't expecting but really enjoyed and our server was lovely.
(5)Anna K.
Such an awesome environment! Cool vibe, great service, awesome happy hour prices and Mikey is the best!!!! :)
(5)Eat R.
Ok, let's get real. The music was too loud to talk. The food did not matter because we could not hear each other. We may go back, but I am not rushing back any time soon
(2)Michelle M.
Great atmosphere! Our waiter suggested a really good Spanish Red Wine that went great with my Traditional and Italian Bruschetta. The French fries and the chocolate fondue for dessert is the perfect night topper! A DJ came on and played some 90's and Top 40's hits. This is a great place for a girls night.
(5)Paulette M.
What a great brunch- the French toast was fabulous and the Chiliquilies were AMAZING-the presentation and flavors of both dishes was exceptional. The Bloody Mary bar allowed one to flavor and garnish with abandon- even strips of bacon! The waitstaff kept our water and coffee cups filled. This was our first visit, but the presentation, flavors, and prices will keep us coming back.
(5)Anna S.
This place has become my ultimate favorite place to go out on the weekends! I love the set up! So chill yet full of energy! The service was amazing! The food..omg! Best place for your once a week cheat meall! Its kind of the new cool lounge to be at in North Scottsdale.
(5)Stephanie C.
Fun place! Just went for a few drinks and some snacks and it was perfect evening! Cool atmosphere, friendly, laid back staff. We're from out of town but if we lived here we'd definitely make the living room one of our regular spots.
(5)Lindsay G.
We had been awaiting the opening of this after watching the slow crash and burn of the former wine bar. We were hoping for a fresh new spot, with great service and a more extensive wine and food menu. The Living Room delivered! We stopped in last Friday night for a glass of wine and were shocked that there was a wait! They were able to squeeze us in the packed patio and we were able to enjoy our drinks there. Live DJ on the weekends is a nice touch. Service was good....needs some work but I will chalk it up to it being new and them working the kinks out! Hoping to try out some food next visit!
(5)Wendi W.
I'm giving The Living Room three stars not because the food wasn't good because it was actually very good. Not because the atmosphere was bad because it was really lovely and very beautifully done. But because the DJ in the corner was playing the music so loud that you had to shout to one another to try and have conversation. Even asked the server and she said they would not lower the volume!! The atmosphere did not lend itself to a DJ but would have been so much nicer to have a single guitarist playing some nice mellow music after all it is suppose to be like in your "living room!"
(3)Melissa H.
We have been wanting to try this place since it opened. We had some out of town guests so we decided to take them here. When I got there, there was no seating outside and it was beautiful out so I asked the manager if a spot opened up could we take it? He said of course. When a group of people left, he was on it. Even though they were busy, he was still keeping an eye out. The staff was amazing & so was the food. We had 6 of us and we ordered 6 glasses of wine and the manager came over and said he could save us a little bit of money by selling us a bottle, and I dont think they even have bottles on their menu. I thought that was great! I don't know a lot of places that would do that. Most places want you to spend more money. We were there for about 4 hours, lots of bottles of wine and we had their hummus plate, prime rib sliders, brusetta and fondue for dessert. Our waiter was awesome! We will for sure be back! The only complaint I have is that the happy hour, to me starts too early. My hubby doesn't normally get home from the office until 530. So I told my hubby that he needs to get home earlier so we can hit the happy hour often. Great place!!
(5)Laura C.
Love this place!! The food is delish, the atmosphere so relaxing, wait staff friendly and attentive. Have introduced several of my friends to this great place and they all love it!!!
(5)A B.
First visit on a Sunday afternoon. Great wine and apps and live acoustic music - cozy pub atmosphere. Manager David greeted us personally and made some recommendations. We will be back!
(5)Sharon C.
We were big fans of Armitage and were anxious to see how The Living Room would stack up. We've now been there 3 times. Love the decor, fun menu, and decent wines by the glass. The only complaint is that last night the music level was so high that our waiter couldn't hear us and vice versa. Our table of 4 (inside) had to shout to hear one another and ended up having to have two one-on-one conversations since a discussion involving all four of us was impossible. I love a place with good music and the song selection here was cool, but the volume was WAY over the top and it ruined the ambiance. Fix that and we'll be back every week.
(3)John G.
I really enjoyed myself. It was the second time I had gone there and both times the staff was extremely friendly. And the food is great too... I had the hummus platter and the chicken pesto flatbread. Thumbs up!
(5)Marlo H.
Visited for the first time last weekend. The place was packed on a Friday night - granted both the Super Bowl and Phoenix Open were in town. Food was very good. We ordered the prime rib sliders, Korean steak lettuce cups, and chocolate fondue for desert. All were delicious. Service was great - especially considering how busy it was. Our only complaint was the music was too loud. There were four of us at the table, and it was impossible to have a conversation between all of us. Turn down the music and I will add another star! Also, note we were there at about 7:00 pm - a time we want to relax, have a cocktail, and have good conversation with friends. I can see it being louder a little later.... We have driven by on a Sunday early evening and heard live acoustic music/singing; I guess that is more the vibe we were looking for. All said and done, we will definitely give it another try!

My girlfriend and I came in yesterday for lunch. We fell in love with the decor and overall atmosphere immediately. Upon looking at the menu we found many things that caught our attention and got us even more excited. We started with the spinach artichoke dip, we both agreed it was the best we've had. The presentation of all the food was also excellent. The green chili burger and the strawberry gorgonzola salad were both very flavorful and well balanced! We finished with the cookie a la mode for desert, obviously. Exceptional, easy going service and overall experience!!!!

Great atmosphere - Lots of variety of seating - couches and comfy chairs - including out on the patio. Service was awesome. Seemed to be more of a team than just one person. Any server walking by checked in and helped if needed. Great food. Club sandwich was good. 2 people had the French Dips and loved them. Timing was off for the chicken on one of the salads but minor hiccup in a great meal.

This wine bar is poppin. Mikey is a really good server. He will take care of you. I don't like the food as much as the drinks though. On Saturday and Sunday there are $5 mimosas and $5 Bloody Mary.

RECOMMEND: we have heard how much fun The Living Room is, so we decided to pop in and see for ourselves. They remodeled the inside and it now looks and feels nothing like the previous wine bar. The vibe and energy are great. This type of spot is welcomed up north and they should be very successful here. The staff is friendly, especially Steven the manager. Cool guy. We grabbed a couple of seats at the bar. I love how they have seats "behind the bar". The drinks are good and not a cup full of ice. I decided to order something to nosh on and selected the meat and cheese plate. Nice selection of meat and cheeses to choose from. We especially liked the fact that they were playing the UFC fight on TV. We will be back!

Went for lunch with friends and I'd giving the food 3 stars and atmosphere and service 4 stars. We didn't have wine but did have sandwiches which were nothing exciting making me want to return to try other things on the menu. Two of us had the chicken salad aioli sandwich on sourdough, the only kind of bread they have, which was bland, skimpy amount of chicken and even the bread was uneventful. Definitely overpriced. We choose this because our waiter told us this was the best sandwich on the menu! Our other friend got the turkey sandwich and she felt the same about that, bland, with a skimpy amount of turkey between two pieces of boring toasted bread. 3 skimpy sandwiches that totaled $37.00 without tip. I was really hoping this would be my first visit of many but there are way too many restaurants and wine bars in Scottsdale to spend my money at.

I'm happy to see that Market Street DC Ranch has a fun spot for N. Scottsdale residents to enjoy a night out with some drinks in hand! Now, while I didn't get to partake in the drink portion of the experience (only a couple more months to go before Baby D arrives!), I did get to enjoy the atmosphere and a nice night out with my husband. The atmosphere here is lively without being too crazy. It's perfect for a date night out or if you are looking for a lively atmosphere without going to a bar or club. Now if you don't like wine, don't let title of wine bar fool you. It's got a full bar and plenty of non-wine options. Their food menu consists of plenty of options to share, including bruschetta boards, flat breads and sandwiches. Their food is good too! I had the chicken salad sandwich and my husband had the French Dip, both which were tasty! We also tried the bruschetta board which I highly recommend. I also noticed that they do brunch on the weekends! Mimosa's anyone!?
(4)Kerri R.
Always the BEST service! Very attentive and happy hour prices are the best! Can't beat the music here either! Love the DJ on th weekends. Great local spot!
(5)Kacey T.
Amazing ambience at this restaurant. They have absolutely delicious sangria and to die for French fries! The food is all very good, delicious bruschetta, and flat bread pizzas. The service was great and the staff was attentive to your needs but didn't feel like they are hovering over you. My absolute favorite thing, they have blankets available for the guests sitting outdoors. I would recommend this for a big party or for an intimate setting! Try it out!
(5)Taylor M.
get the superfood salad with grilled chicken and the meat and cheese board with olives. absolutely amazing. the California roll is delicious as well
(5)Leang E.
We came here as the Breakfast Joynt wait was too long, and so we ended up here for brunch. It was still a great choice as my fritata was delicious, and just the right portion. Coffee refills kept coming, and it was a very chill and relaxing atmosphere. The waitress was nice as well, and the prices were ok. I would love to come back for another meal in the day.
(4)Christine C.
Prime rib sliders were delish Loved the drinks And our server (Matt I believe was his name) was fantastic! Great service/cool ambiance Will definitely be back.

Tonight was amaze balls. It started out with 1 glass of wine, which turned into 4 sloppy ones. Mr. Music Man hugged me, told me he loved me, signed my CD, and committed to having my babies. Meanwhile, I'm selling my best friend, Stephanie to Mr. Space Heater Waiter Manager Mike Man. He was so sweet. She was freezing, so he brought her a blanket, and a space heater in which we thought was a fan until we felt heat. He was very attentive to us, needless to say, and kept filling our drinks till we felt it. I then convinced Stephanie to have a "wet t-shirt concert," multiple times, which I meant "contest" (drunk girl can't speak problems). Did I tell you, I really loved the Mr. Music Baby Maker Music Man #dreamy. Our Manager Mike Man knows how to use hashtags. I then convinced Stephanie to roll up the blanket and put it in our purse, which he loved, because clearly I'm a comedian, and I kept making people laugh like Randy Johnson, and the 3 Coyotes Hockey retirees tonight (p.s. you can have my babies too). No joke. By the end of the night, we ended up in the parking lot convincing them to make us mac and cheese while I was talking to my two eses in spanish. #hashtag. Tonight was legit. The Living Room is legit. Mike was too legit to quit. Mr Music Man - he was on a whole other level (or lover your choice). Very romantic, casual, trendy, chandlier - sia type song, wine, brick walls, and living room. This is our new spot! Faux sho. P.P.S. No one was hurt in the making of this review. I'm feelin' the wine tonight. Clearly. Needless to stay Stephanie got a number out of tonight, and I got a boyfriend...?
(5)Lucy B.
COCKROACHES! Myself and my three co-workers went for drinks and a few apps. Being in the resort industry, we wanted to check out the wine bar ourselves. Moving forward we will NEVER recommend The Living Room to our guest. When advised waitstaff of the cockroaches, he laughed and said,"Well, we do live in the desert. What can we do." We understand it's the desert, but pretend to care or remove the insects from view. Offer a solution of sorts. The Living Room is an over priced wine bar and glorified Mom hangout.
(1)Kathie M.
I would recommend his place if you weren't too concerned about having conversation with your meal. I thought the food was really great. We went for happy hour and had the bruschetta, lettuce wraps and shrimp appetizer and all were very good. They don't have an actual happy hour menu, just discounts on drinks. All of our severs were excellent. The idea of a living room decor is cute, but we probably won't frequent much unless we sit outside (not a good idea in Arizona's summer heat). It was just too noisy inside for us. Having said that, we are In our 60's, and can remember our parents saying the same kind of thing. So the younger crowd shouldn't have any problem with it. I would say go and check it out!
(3)Tamara M.
Love this place and happy they are in our neighborhood! I go there both with my hubby or a happy hour with the girls. The service is very good, and they all remember you when you walk in and make a point of coming over to say hi. We mostly go for cocktails , but the food I've tried is quite good as well. Comfortable room with a good vibe! We are regulars !
(5)Ann Y.
This place was such a pleasant surprise! We had dinner with friends and the food was phenomenal. The waiter guided us through the menu and offered us some exceptional choices. The lamb chops were amazing, they fell of the bone. The salmon was so moist and grilled to perfection. The appetizer of spinach and artichoke dip was so creaming and smooth. The dessert was a fondue of chocolate with chopped up apples, strawberries, pretzels and marshmallows. Omg! It was mouth watering! The music was definitely retro and the atmosphere is warm, quiet and relaxing. This place is a jewel it sparkles like a diamond in the back of a wooden box. This place is a must GO-TO place in North Scottsdale!
(5)Parsa H.
We work in an office and usually order from local places and we decided to give this place a try, the menu looked good enough. So...we ordered 2 of the bacon blue burgers and one tuna melt for carry out. First off they don't write anything on the boxes so we got to guess which one was cooked medium and which one was medium well (we guessed wrong). As I'm sitting there eating my coworkers sinful overly cooked burger I hear a shriek and the girl who had the tuna melt found a freaking metal screw in it.....no lie, a sharp metal screw that she had to spit out. I want to believe deep down that it wasn't put in there on purpose but where in a kitchen would you have loose screws laying around that could just fall into the tuna....first and last time we order at this merchant of death restaurant. Two stars only because the "awesome" fries are actually pretty awesome. Update: they were nice enough to give us a $50 gift card to make up for their attempted murder, 4stars!

One of the owners, constantly hangs out, he should call this high School popularity contest. Did this guy open a place to be popular? I like the Livingroom but it's just weird that this owner hangs out and make people feel pretty uncomfortable, it's creepy. This is a new bar to a neighborhood I have lived in for 12 years, the concept is good but this is a family area and nobody what's to be made to feel uncomfortable by strange and uncomfortable environment. We were over charged for drinks we did not have. The food is average and over priced, there are several other options within the same area that are more reasonable and have better food. Great Party environment and cool to hangout but over all one star is appropriate!
(1)Patrick R.
Really disappointing. Feels like brunch is forced here. Frittata - had a few pieces of sausage, no parm and some spinach. If I didn't put hot sauce on it I would not have eaten it because it would have just been a cooked egg. Over easy egg - came out raw in the middle time 1. Yes we want the yolk runny NOT the white part, sent them back. Came out the same time 2. Eggs are not hard to cook, if you claim brunch figure it out Service - friendly but slow Coffee - sad this was the high point For the amount of breakfast options in the area there are WAY better options
(2)Bao H.
(Lyrics - Divinyls - I Touch Myself) I love Bo Bites, I want you to know me When I feel hungry, I want to go feasting I research myself, I want to go Yelping I order myself, I want you to show me I don't want something else When I think about it, The Living Room Oh, I don't want something else, oh no Oh, no, oh, no This is a pretty hot place for to hangout for some wine and drinks! I came here with a large group of people and the place was popping already. The living room the perfect title to describe the ambiance plus a full on bar of course. It was pretty warm that day so I didn't order any wine, but this is definitely a wine and appetizer joint. I totally went the opposite and shot for a beer and an entree flatbread! Overall, the Big Pig; they call it, is meat pizza. It came along with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and salami. I would defer from the "Big" part since it was appetizer size in my opinion, but it was plated and pretty darn good; salty and savory ingredients atop a warm crusty flatbread along with crushed peppers and cheese. Guess you can say I was the "Big Pig"! I really enjoyed ambiance and plus the service was on top of things. Again we had a large group, but they were able to accommodate us without a skip! If you're ever in the DC Ranch area; I would totally recommend this spot! - Enjoy!

Stopped here for lunch today! Very very cute place to eat. Would be awesome for a Sunday brunch. I love the rustic look outside and the interior decor, very appealing. The people working there were super nice and friendly which is awesome. The menu was a pretty good size. Usually I would go for breakfast, but the lunch looked awesome so I decided on that. I went with my family, and we all found what we wanted pretty quickly! My mom and sister shared a chicken sandwich, my dad got the margherita flatbread, and I got bruschetta. I chose four: traditional (tomato basil mozzarella), mushroom, orchard (apples, fig, brie, honey), and one with goat cheese, pepper jam, and peppers. My meal was so good, I was asked which one was my favorite and I had trouble deciding because they were all so delicious. I think the orchard one was probably my favorite. Sometimes with bruchetta there's too much bread or it gets super soggy and gross, but this one was good. A nice bread to topping ratio. My dad loved his flatbread, and my sister and mom liked the sandwich. I stole a few fries from them and they were good. Portions were a little smaller than expected for the bruchetta and flatbread, but otherwise no complaints on the food. Also we finished with a pizookie which was an incredible decision because it was absolutely delicious. Only real downside was how loud this place was, we had to almost yell to hear each other, and it was not even that crowded. I'd like to go back though! I bet it's a fun place to go at night also.
(4)Emelia W.
Went here with two friends and had the prime rib sliders, the Korean lettuce cups, and artichoke dip. Overall the food wasn't bad but I will probably never opt to go here again. I mean it's not terrible but I think the food was somewhat disappointing considering the price, and it was super LOUD. I felt like I was almost yelling to talk to my friend across from me. Pros- helpful staff, comfy seating, interesting menu choices Cons- Loud music and even louder drunk people, ok food, overpriced
(2)Leah F.
Went here for a double date night with our friends and had a blast !!!! good food good drinks and Great service !!!! We initially walked in and the place was packed so we dined outside the music was blasting inside so of your into that scene this is your place but outside was beautiful they had the misters going to it was not to hot out , The atmosphere is very cozy yet modern. the cocktails were made strong not wimpy like most places. We ordered a bunch of food and shared the pretzel with cheese , 4 orders of different sushi rolls the Tk rolls were amazing we will be back for sure because of those , A great cheese board , and lamb dish and the prime Rib French dip was very good . All the staff was super friendly and attentive and made good recommendations. We will be back for sure :) Thanks for a great date night living room
(4)Gordon L.
Came here to watch game 6 for the first time and they definitely had a great vibe. I was seated right away near the bar. The service was phenomenal and my water was constantly refilled. I had the French dip with the homemade chips that was perfect and a shock top. My girlfriend ordered the cheese/meat board and loved if! Definitely coming back in the future. Great vibes and good prices!
(5)Kate K.
I'm a fan of the Living Room in Chandler and this new location did not disappoint! The menu is the same as far as I can tell, and the interior is similarly inviting. There is a HUGE patio, however I chose to eat inside since it was pretty chilly outside. Unfortunately it was just as cold inside... Considering I was the only person in there on a Saturday at lunch time, perhaps it would bode well for them to offer an early happy hour or lunch specials...or perhaps the word just hasn't gotten out yet. I didn't love Armitage, but hopefully the Living Room will succeed here.
(4)Debra W.
We've visited this place several times and haven't been disappointed once! They have it figured out; from service that makes you feel special to the great quality of wine and food options. Enjoyed watching the near seamless handoff and transition of servers to having Sebastian who provided excellent service and food recommendations. We'll be opening a Winery down the street in Oct 2015 and look forward to building a strong partnership with this fine establishment. Looking forward to future visits and checking out their original site on Chandler. Keep up the awesome work! Wishing you nothing but great success

My husband and I came here two days in a row. After we tried it on Saturday, we had to come back Sunday. It was just that good! Originally, we decided to try The Living Room on Saturday because another restaurant stopped serving breakfast at 11am. Lucky for us, the Living Room serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday starting at 9am. The breakfast menu has roughly 10 entrees plus some drinks and sides. I decided to try the French toast with pecans and maple cream. My husband went with the rancher's plate (two eggs, sausage patties, polenta, and bread). We also ordered a side of bacon to share and I ordered a vanilla latte. First and foremost, the latte was amazing. Upon first sip, I exclaimed how great it was and shocked my husband. (I will admit, I am a bit of a coffee snob and it is so hard to find a place that has both great coffee and great breakfast. The Living Room has both. This is a major win in my book.) As for our entries, my French toast was amazing. There were 4 huge slices of bread dusted with powdered sugar and topped with pecans. It also came with a small pot of maple whipped cream and maple syrup on the side. The toast itself was extremely rich and creamy. The center was soft like bread pudding and melted in my mouth. My husband loved it as well and kept stealing bites. My husband's plate was just as good. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the sausage was extremely tasty, and the polenta was great dipped the egg yolk. The bacon was delicious as well. I thought it could have been a bit crispier, but my husband loved it. When we came back Sunday, I ordered the French toast again and my husband tried the chilaquiles with a side of bacon. Both of us also ordered vanilla lattes. One of the waiters recognized us from our previous trip and was extremely friendly. When our lattes arrived, the server asked how the latte was and explained the owner/manager is a coffee enthusiast and wants to ensure everything tastes great. We gushed how great everything was and I even ordered a latte to go when we were on our way out. On top of brunch, The Living Room also serves lunch/dinner and we will have to check that out. However, as far as brunch goes, we had a great experience both times. The food was delicious, the coffee was tasty, and the wait staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new great brunch spot. I will definitely be back and soon!
(5)Pete B.
Looking for new places to go in Scottsdale and found the Living Room. I stopped in for a glass of wine, which was good. Bartender was a nice guy. Would have ordered food, but was distracted by the poor management. These people are completely oblivious to the fact that they're working and no one seems to have control. It's like a college bar. One guy, in a short sleeve gray polo shirt, seemed to be some kind of manager, but was throwing back glasses of beer like a customer and spent the whole time on his phone or socializing with employees who could have been focusing on customers. It looks like a really good place, but it just feels cheap. Too many options to make this a go-to. I think John Taffer would have a field day here.
(3)jar g.
Great atmosphere wonderful staff. Best thing on menu is pine in sliders just ask for gorgonzola on the side it's overpowers. Brunch is great too
(5)Michelle M.
Great atmosphere! Our waiter suggested a really good Spanish Red Wine that went great with my Traditional and Italian Bruschetta. The French fries and the chocolate fondue for dessert is the perfect night topper! A DJ came on and played some 90's and Top 40's hits. This is a great place for a girls night.
(5)George W.
Used to go to this place before the name change. It was okay then and okay now. Fiancee had the market street margarita. Good generous pour of Patron but way to much orange juice. More like a Tequila and orange juice with a hint of margarita. Tried a few small appetizers. The shrimp and crab cocktail that came with 4 decent size shrimp but only one small crab claw (??) was okay, as was the caprese salad which most of the tomato was ripe, but would have liked to see a slightly bigger portion and a stronger balsamic reduction. Again, okay but nothing that would really wow me. Did enjoy the DJ and the lively atmosphere. Service was attentive as well. I might be back but use this as a meeting place for a group of friends, grab a cocktail and head out to the next place.
(3)Patrick H.
I hadn't been here since the other wine bar closed down. The Living Room did a great remodel and the place is very stylish and energetic with an upscale feel. The spinach-artichoke dip and the cheeseburger sliders made for some tasty share-able appetizers. Where things went south was at the bar. I ordered a Union Jack IPA and the female bartender charged me $7 instead of the $6 that was listed on the menu. She said they round up after tax. Well tax in Scottsdale is 7.95% so my drink should have been $6.48 and rounding up to $7 is a blatant ripoff. I'm not sure if she is just a rogue bartender or there is a problem here with management. There's a lot to like about this place but keep a close eye out for bartenders lining their pockets at your expense.
(2)Bill M.
Great place: Comfortable, relaxed, and great customer service with management actively engaged. Very clean including windows, bathrooms, and patio. Live music on Sunday's and a misting system for the patio that is on all the time.
(5)Samuel C.
My girlfriend and I came in yesterday for lunch. We fell in love with the decor and overall atmosphere immediately. Upon looking at the menu we found many things that caught our attention and got us even more excited. We started with the spinach artichoke dip, we both agreed it was the best we've had. The presentation of all the food was also excellent. The green chili burger and the strawberry gorgonzola salad were both very flavorful and well balanced! We finished with the cookie a la mode for desert, obviously. Exceptional, easy going service and overall experience!!!!
(5)Mike P.
I came across this place recently and it's now my primary local bar. The atmosphere and ambience of this place really sucked me in. I'm not a fan of big crowds or loud bars, and while this place gets crowded at night you can generally enjoy a nice glass of wine before the rush at happy hour. Definitely a more sophisticated and professional clientele. See Major League Baseball and PGA tour players here a lot. Can't go wrong pairing the Liberty School Cabernet with The Mediterranean Board appetizer. Cheers!

Great atmosphere - Lots of variety of seating - couches and comfy chairs - including out on the patio. Service was awesome. Seemed to be more of a team than just one person.

Wow so surprised to read such mixed reviews! Our first experience there was great. We started with a big fat hot pretzel and my husband enjoyed the dipping mustards. I added melt brie to dip in. Whilst a touch expensive very delicious. My husband ordered a crispy flat bread with many toppings. I had the Korean lettuce wraps. We both tasted both. Delicious, although the wraps were a little spicy for my taste. We will definately return and taste other delicious offerings. I am usually suspicious of extremely varied menus but everything delivered around us looked wonderful. In looking over the selection I was not too thrilled with some of the sides combined with the protein I would select. Hopefully sides can be substituted! The service was great! Team waiting, smiling friendly faces.
(4)Nancy O.
* good service * good food * decent prices (we missed happy hour) * nice atmosphere. It seems pretentious, but it's not.
(4)Carol K.
I won't be going to The Living Room again. Our server couldn't remember who got what so we had to tell her. Five salads how hard is that? Write it down. Kale Ceasar salad, no meat, not worth the $11. The salad was loaded with salt and for the price not worth it at all.
(1)marty b.
If you like to yell at your companions & have trouble hearing any conversation, like overpriced mediocre food & want to beg for condiments......then this is the place for you!! Sat at the bar & the bartenders were good & did a good job. But are doubtful we will ever return. Too many other better options in the area.
(2)Paul B.
Great atmosphere. The waitstaff was incredible! The food was very good. They have an amazing patio for enjoying the outdoors. We went on a date here and we're very pleased with the food and the service. The atmosphere made the experience that much more enjoyable.
(4)Jordyn K.
I have been to The Living Room numerous times now and every time is absolutely wonderful. I have had dined in and ordered to go so many times. The awesome fries are... Well AWESOME! The Cobb Salad is also one of my favorites! The servers are so great, very attentive..and make you feel at home! Love Love Love! :)
(5)Todd K.
We had a great time enjoying several of the appetizers as our entree. They all hit the spot. The manager came over and helped (not in a pushy or salesman way) US Make our selections. Kind of like giving us the inside scoop on how to order what we looking for. Most of the items come in threes and there were two of us (you can order an extra one to make a fourth with no fighting. We'll be back.
(5)Donna C.
Love The Living Room! Two visits so far and we were not disappointed. Great vibe/decor, food, drinks, and service on both occasions. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The music was also fantastic. The patio is large and inviting. Our out of town guest, who is a well traveled foodie, can't wait to return! Note that this is a wine bar/cafe and the menu reflects this as it is geared towards apps/finger food with a bit of a twist/drinks. We love the overall ambiance and will be back!
(5)Megan R.
Great service. Great drinks. The regular behind the bar was a little much though. Shouting that someone rufied him was just absurd. I don't care how much money you spend you shouldn't be aloud free range of the bar area like you own the place
(3)Raquel P.
Excellent! Great menu selection, love the ambiance and the drinks rock! My new favorite on Market Street.
(5)Sharon J.
For ambiance and drinks, it was very enjoyable but the food, not so much. I ordered a prosciutto and Brie sandwich and it was basically made with dry, white bread-like toast, one piece of prosciutto and I think there was some Brie in there. Couldn't taste it....Not quite sure. SO disappointing!
(2)Nicole F.
I have to compliment the service here! Crowded Friday night happy hour, my friend and I were lucky to find a small table in an outside corner - usually this is where the servers forget to come by - but we had great service. A very attentive waitress, our food was served hot and our wine glasses were never empty! :)
(4)Scott P.
So much better than Armitage! Service is wonderful and drinks are priced right. Great happy hour as well. Patio is wonderful. I've only had appetizers, but I have been quite pleased. Give it a try.
(5)Darla L.
This is one of my favorite places. I absolutely love sitting on the patio in the smoothly chairs, relaxing, drinking wine, and eating good food. Everything I've ordered there has been very tasty. The service has been great every time and they are dog friendly. I definitely recommend them for a laid back, enjoyable kind of night. Great for dates and girl time get togethers.
(4)Laura W.
It was an interesting evening. It does have great ambience. Bartenders (ladies) were not very friendly - they did their job, not saying they were bad - just not fun, when you normally visit a place. Food was good - a bit pricey. Happy Hour Wine was priced very well. Introduced myself as a Concierge and, believe me, we can (or not), send a lot of people to restaurant venues and Manager could have cared less. It was an ok evening but not at the top of my list. We were at Flemings on Monday and it was a lot nicer.
(3)Kimberly W.
Delicious brunch! Awesome Bloody Mary Bar! Super friendly service and amazing decor! 1 of my neighborhood favs!
(5)Lauren M.
Stopped by for lunch and loved it! The pizza was on a crispy flatbread which I wasn't expecting but really enjoyed and our server was lovely.
(5)Anna K.
Such an awesome environment! Cool vibe, great service, awesome happy hour prices and Mikey is the best!!!! :)
(5)Michael H.
RECOMMEND: we have heard how much fun The Living Room is, so we decided to pop in and see for ourselves. They remodeled the inside and it now looks and feels nothing like the previous wine bar. The vibe and energy are great. This type of spot is welcomed up north and they should be very successful here. The staff is friendly, especially Steven the manager. Cool guy. We grabbed a couple of seats at the bar. I love how they have seats "behind the bar". The drinks are good and not a cup full of ice. I decided to order something to nosh on and selected the meat and cheese plate. Nice selection of meat and cheeses to choose from. We especially liked the fact that they were playing the UFC fight on TV. We will be back!
(5)Denise M.
Went for lunch with friends and I'd giving the food 3 stars and atmosphere and service 4 stars. We didn't have wine but did have sandwiches which were nothing exciting making me want to return to try other things on the menu. Two of us had the chicken salad aioli sandwich on sourdough, the only kind of bread they have, which was bland, skimpy amount of chicken and even the bread was uneventful. Definitely overpriced. We choose this because our waiter told us this was the best sandwich on the menu! Our other friend got the turkey sandwich and she felt the same about that, bland, with a skimpy amount of turkey between two pieces of boring toasted bread. 3 skimpy sandwiches that totaled $37.00 without tip. I was really hoping this would be my first visit of many but there are way too many restaurants and wine bars in Scottsdale to spend my money at.
(3)Lindsey D.
I'm happy to see that Market Street DC Ranch has a fun spot for N. Scottsdale residents to enjoy a night out with some drinks in hand! Now, while I didn't get to partake in the drink portion of the experience (only a couple more months to go before Baby D arrives!), I did get to enjoy the atmosphere and a nice night out with my husband. The atmosphere here is lively without being too crazy. It's perfect for a date night out or if you are looking for a lively atmosphere without going to a bar or club. Now if you don't like wine, don't let title of wine bar fool you. It's got a full bar and plenty of non-wine options. Their food menu consists of plenty of options to share, including bruschetta boards, flat breads and sandwiches. Their food is good too! I had the chicken salad sandwich and my husband had the French Dip, both which were tasty! We also tried the bruschetta board which I highly recommend. I also noticed that they do brunch on the weekends! Mimosa's anyone!?
(4)Kerri R.
Always the BEST service! Very attentive and happy hour prices are the best! Can't beat the music here either! Love the DJ on th weekends. Great local spot!
(5)Kacey T.
Amazing ambience at this restaurant. They have absolutely delicious sangria and to die for French fries! The food is all very good, delicious bruschetta, and flat bread pizzas. The service was great and the staff was attentive to your needs but didn't feel like they are hovering over you. My absolute favorite thing, they have blankets available for the guests sitting outdoors. I would recommend this for a big party or for an intimate setting! Try it out!
(5)Taylor M.
get the superfood salad with grilled chicken and the meat and cheese board with olives. absolutely amazing. the California roll is delicious as well
(5)Cloey K.
Tonight was amaze balls. It started out with 1 glass of wine, which turned into 4 sloppy ones. Mr. Music Man hugged me, told me he loved me, signed my CD, and committed to having my babies. Meanwhile, I'm selling my best friend, Stephanie to Mr. Space Heater Waiter Manager Mike Man. He was so sweet. She was freezing, so he brought her a blanket, and a space heater in which we thought was a fan until we felt heat. He was very attentive to us, needless to say, and kept filling our drinks till we felt it. I then convinced Stephanie to have a "wet t-shirt concert," multiple times, which I meant "contest" (drunk girl can't speak problems). Did I tell you, I really loved the Mr. Music Baby Maker Music Man #dreamy. Our Manager Mike Man knows how to use hashtags. I then convinced Stephanie to roll up the blanket and put it in our purse, which he loved, because clearly I'm a comedian, and I kept making people laugh like Randy Johnson, and the 3 Coyotes Hockey retirees tonight (p.s. you can have my babies too). No joke. By the end of the night, we ended up in the parking lot convincing them to make us mac and cheese while I was talking to my two eses in spanish. #hashtag. Tonight was legit. The Living Room is legit. Mike was too legit to quit. Mr Music Man - he was on a whole other level (or lover your choice). Very romantic, casual, trendy, chandlier - sia type song, wine, brick walls, and living room. This is our new spot! Faux sho. P.P.S. No one was hurt in the making of this review. I'm feelin' the wine tonight. Clearly. Needless to stay Stephanie got a number out of tonight, and I got a boyfriend...?

We came here as the Breakfast Joynt wait was too long, and so we ended up here for brunch. It was still a great choice as my fritata was delicious, and just the right portion. Coffee refills kept coming, and it was a very chill and relaxing atmosphere. The waitress was nice as well, and the prices were ok. I would love to come back for another meal in the day.

COCKROACHES! Myself and my three co-workers went for drinks and a few apps. Being in the resort industry, we wanted to check out the wine bar ourselves. Moving forward we will NEVER recommend The Living Room to our guest. When advised waitstaff of the cockroaches, he laughed and said,"Well, we do live in the desert. What can we do." We understand it's the desert, but pretend to care or remove the insects from view. Offer a solution of sorts. The Living Room is an over priced wine bar and glorified Mom hangout.

I would recommend his place if you weren't too concerned about having conversation with your meal. I thought the food was really great. We went for happy hour and had the bruschetta, lettuce wraps and shrimp appetizer and all were very good. They don't have an actual happy hour menu, just discounts on drinks. All of our severs were excellent. The idea of a living room decor is cute, but we probably won't frequent much unless we sit outside (not a good idea in Arizona's summer heat). It was just too noisy inside for us. Having said that, we are In our 60's, and can remember our parents saying the same kind of thing. So the younger crowd shouldn't have any problem with it. I would say go and check it out!

I heard good things from several coworkers about this place and took my friends to check it out. We weren't disappointed. The team service concept (we had several servers) seemed a little disorganized and disjointed, but it was Saturday evening so it was understandable that they were busy and not able to be super attentive. The drinks were good and we ordered several apps that were quite tasty. For the ambiance and area you get, the prices are not too bad. The craziest part is the people watching. My group was probably the youngest in the restaurant with the most original unaltered body parts.

I heard about this place through a friend and figured I'd try it out. My first time there I had probably one of the best kale Caesar salads I've ever had before. I found myself craving it last night so went there again. This time along with the bomb kale Caesar i ordered the awesome fries--I know fries are fries but these were legit ass fries and whatever sauce that came with them was legit too. Ended the night licking the bottom of the pan our pizza cookie came in . Overall cute atmosphere, good food/wine and great service!

Amazing wine bar. Really great wine selection and food. This is the perfect place to meet girlfriends for drinks. Really casual environment and the best music selection on the weekends. The service is really good. This place is a must go!

Ok...food was good. Priced typical Scottsdale over priced. Service was meh...forgot our oysters and everything took a longggggg time...wasn't even a full house.

What a disappointment! We went to check it out, we sat at one end of the bar where it looks like a large communal table. We had a margarita and a blueberry lemon drop. Yuck, their well liquor must be the worst I have ever had. I imagine that is what gasoline would taste like. We could not finish those drinks. We decided to cut our loses and leave.

Ok, let's get real. The music was too loud to talk. The food did not matter because we could not hear each other. We may go back, but I am not rushing back any time soon

What a great brunch- the French toast was fabulous and the Chiliquilies were AMAZING-the presentation and flavors of both dishes was exceptional. The Bloody Mary bar allowed one to flavor and garnish with abandon- even strips of bacon! The waitstaff kept our water and coffee cups filled. This was our first visit, but the presentation, flavors, and prices will keep us coming back.

This place has become my ultimate favorite place to go out on the weekends! I love the set up! So chill yet full of energy! The service was amazing! The food..omg! Best place for your once a week cheat meall! Its kind of the new cool lounge to be at in North Scottsdale.

Fun place! Just went for a few drinks and some snacks and it was perfect evening! Cool atmosphere, friendly, laid back staff. We're from out of town but if we lived here we'd definitely make the living room one of our regular spots.

We had been awaiting the opening of this after watching the slow crash and burn of the former wine bar. We were hoping for a fresh new spot, with great service and a more extensive wine and food menu. The Living Room delivered! We stopped in last Friday night for a glass of wine and were shocked that there was a wait! They were able to squeeze us in the packed patio and we were able to enjoy our drinks there. Live DJ on the weekends is a nice touch. Service was good....needs some work but I will chalk it up to it being new and them working the kinks out! Hoping to try out some food next visit!

I'm giving The Living Room three stars not because the food wasn't good because it was actually very good. Not because the atmosphere was bad because it was really lovely and very beautifully done. But because the DJ in the corner was playing the music so loud that you had to shout to one another to try and have conversation. Even asked the server and she said they would not lower the volume!! The atmosphere did not lend itself to a DJ but would have been so much nicer to have a single guitarist playing some nice mellow music after all it is suppose to be like in your "living room!"

We were big fans of Armitage and were anxious to see how The Living Room would stack up. We've now been there 3 times. Love the decor, fun menu, and decent wines by the glass. The only complaint is that last night the music level was so high that our waiter couldn't hear us and vice versa. Our table of 4 (inside) had to shout to hear one another and ended up having to have two one-on-one conversations since a discussion involving all four of us was impossible. I love a place with good music and the song selection here was cool, but the volume was WAY over the top and it ruined the ambiance. Fix that and we'll be back every week.

I really enjoyed myself. It was the second time I had gone there and both times the staff was extremely friendly. And the food is great too... I had the hummus platter and the chicken pesto flatbread. Thumbs up!

First visit on a Sunday afternoon. Great wine and apps and live acoustic music - cozy pub atmosphere. Manager David greeted us personally and made some recommendations. We will be back!

Visited for the first time last weekend. The place was packed on a Friday night - granted both the Super Bowl and Phoenix Open were in town. Food was very good. We ordered the prime rib sliders, Korean steak lettuce cups, and chocolate fondue for desert. All were delicious. Service was great - especially considering how busy it was. Our only complaint was the music was too loud. There were four of us at the table, and it was impossible to have a conversation between all of us. Turn down the music and I will add another star! Also, note we were there at about 7:00 pm - a time we want to relax, have a cocktail, and have good conversation with friends. I can see it being louder a little later.... We have driven by on a Sunday early evening and heard live acoustic music/singing; I guess that is more the vibe we were looking for. All said and done, we will definitely give it another try!

We have been wanting to try this place since it opened. We had some out of town guests so we decided to take them here. When I got there, there was no seating outside and it was beautiful out so I asked the manager if a spot opened up could we take it? He said of course. When a group of people left, he was on it. Even though they were busy, he was still keeping an eye out. The staff was amazing & so was the food. We had 6 of us and we ordered 6 glasses of wine and the manager came over and said he could save us a little bit of money by selling us a bottle, and I dont think they even have bottles on their menu. I thought that was great! I don't know a lot of places that would do that. Most places want you to spend more money. We were there for about 4 hours, lots of bottles of wine and we had their hummus plate, prime rib sliders, brusetta and fondue for dessert. Our waiter was awesome! We will for sure be back! The only complaint I have is that the happy hour, to me starts too early. My hubby doesn't normally get home from the office until 530. So I told my hubby that he needs to get home earlier so we can hit the happy hour often. Great place!!
