SearsuckerThe feel of the restaurantThe feel of the restaurant is very nice. The menu was unique, and well thought out. We were there for lunch, and both enjoyed our food. We had the burger and the steak salad. Would definitely go again,and would like to go for dinner, and spend some time in the bar. It also had a nice feel, and is large.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMInfreakincredible!Second time to eat here. Just incredible food and service! Had the sangria, nice and light and the sweet hot squid was unbelievable both times. Had the kale caesar salad and it was sooooo delicious. Only weak point was the free cupcake for my friend's birthday that was dry and lifeless. Over all a 15 out of 10.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWhat a Menu!This is a very large restaurant that, in my opinion, has everything going for it but one big thing. Great location, a great bar, very good staff, good ambiance and very good food. The one thing that frustrated me and made my visit less than excellent was a menu tries to be so cute describing the dishes with catchy words that you cannot tell what the dishes are. If there were only a dozen or so items on the menu it would not be so bad, but there are many, many items that after you look it over it becomes overwhelming.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic restaurant!!This is my new favorite. Great menu with delicious choices! Happy hour is great too - good wine list, great small plates and great atmosphere.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMCulinary ExperienceMy friend and I like to try a lot of different things so we opted on the small pates. All were very flavorful but a little too rich (and I love rich). We had the braised short ribs, squid, pork belly and the quail. I’m pretty adventurous but the quail in the jar was a little much. Next time I would do just one of the items we selected and then go for something to counter balance the richness.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMSecond VisitThe Phoenix location was just as good as our first trip to the San Diego original. My wife and I both had the Mahi TNT - an outrageously good piece of fish with crab and horseradish mixed on top. We added the bacon grits as a great side dish. Inventive dishes at Searsucker continue to amaze. You have to try the donughts and chocolate for dessert - crazy good.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic food!Try the steak salad at lunch (I haven't been for dinner yet) - the brie croutons are fantastic! Pulled pork sandwich was absolutely delicious as well......great atmosphere and I look forward to trying it for happy hour too. Great menu at lunch. Definitely worth checking out!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMWe read about Searsucker inWe read about Searsucker in the New Times and selected it for our weekly date night, which also happened to be birthday night. We loved the place. The food choices are varied, creative and will excite foodies. We wished for bigger appetites so we could try more things. We opted for a smorgasbord of small plates, rather than the entrees, but we'll go back to try the entrees soon enough. Our waiter was great - present when we needed him. He also helped us with the menu, which is full of things with names that don't really give away the dish, and foods I've never heard of. I particularly liked the drink list. Whomever designed the drinks is pretty creative, luring me away from my standard glass of red wine. Highly recommended!5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary dinnerThe champagne for dessert was a nice touch, but I would have given them high marks in any case. The bartender was very good and mixed a couple of martinis for us very well. The salad was crisp, dressing delicious. Main courses were hot, tasty and shared. We split a dessert and both thought it was a wonderful place and would definitely return.4/30/2013 12:00:00 AMSearsuckerWe were excited to visit Searsucker as the chef is one of the hottest chefs in the US right now. The menu was daunting but we got through with the help of "Tim" our waiter who looks like Taylor Hicks. The food was really exceptional and the portions very generous even for the small plate items. We sincerely hope Searsucker grows in popularity and is successful. The location is somewhat difficult and is a destination restaurant...not one that is in a mall or downtown Scottsdale location. The office type location is different but the restaurant is beautifully appointed with high energy atmosphere. Good luck to them and to the chef!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMInterested in trying Malarkey'sInterested in trying Malarkey's restaurant after hearing about the opening and then watching him on The Taste on ABC.
Searsucker is a fantastic restaurant. The food was creative, delicious and quality of the ingredients was top-notch. Searsucker is the new gem in old town scottsdale and moves to the top of my list in the area.4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was great service as usual.It was great service as usual.

Interesting and tasty menu - we only had appetizers but they were all great. And then we shared two desserts - the donuts and chocolate terrine which were both amazing!!!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMLunch was Luscious!Went with my Mom for lunch--requested comfortable seating which the hostess was glad to accommodate (Mom has had six back surgeries). They put us at a large booth for six, so we had plenty of room. I ordered the steak salad and Mom had their Cobb salad. The greens and dressing were PERFECT, the brie croutons were to die for and the french fried onions topped it all off. My steak was cooked perfectly as well {medium rare}. Mom enjoyed her Cobb as well, it had large pieces of bacon and looked yummy. Look forward to a return visit soon.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome spot for foodies butAwesome spot for foodies but only if you also like loud music. Very trendy, open atmosphere with tasty cocktails and a wide vareity of chic American eats.

We had a great server who was polite and helpful. Restaurant had a dj playing a wide variety of music. Very fun place to dine! I will return!4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMAnnoyingly LOUD MushcThis restaurant has everything going for it EXCEPT the annoyingly loud music. They actually have a DJ set up in the bar area! There is no way that I will ever come back to this restaurant or recommend it to anyone because of the DJ. It made it very, very difficult to have any sort of conversation with our friends who were in town for a visit. At the end of the evening, we all agreed that the place had great food, lovely atmosphere and wonderful wait staff and that the music was way too LOUD!4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was our 30th Wedding AnniversaryIt was our 30th Wedding Anniversary. We wanted to try something different. Searsucker was the choice and it was a good one! We enjoyed every minute and every taste. We ordered drinks, fries, bone marrow, duck, wine and cauliflower. All were fabulous! Our server was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We will definitely return!4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMheat it up!The food was kinda cold all the way around, from apps to main course. Our service was excellent!4/1/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing!I loved the smalls ie appetizers! We only had three but it wa enough to fill us up and didn't need anymore good. The service was excellent!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food, excellent serviceMy friend and I on a spring training trip booked a last minute reservation at Searsucker and couldn't have been happier. The upscale restaurant didn't look twice at our dressed-down baseball outfits and we were rewarded with an amazing meal. I highly suggets starting with the chicken and waffles - fantastic! And the duck 3 ways was delicious. All of our server's suggestions were spot on!3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother level of DiningWhat a gem!! Wonderful food,ambience and service friendly courteous without being too familiar and "in your face".
A dinner experience which I want to share with friends and family in the future.
The food was delightful. Fresh,tasteful and exciting with many innovative ideas and flavours. Cool, relaxing ambience and comfortable seating.
Wide ranging wine list with a couple of French classics.
All this at very, very reasonable prices. My only fear is that it will become so popular I will have to book months in advance.3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMLots of great flavors. MayLots of great flavors. May I suggest trying lots of smalls and sharing an entree. Be sure to try one of their signature cocktails.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place and wonderfulGreat place and wonderful food. My only compliant is having to pay for valet parking. At this level of an establishment, it's surprising they would charge their customers to valet park. Also, the Red Velvet cake was disappointing. The cake was very moist but frosting was flat, which is really the highlight of any red velvet cake. Maybe add some cinnamon to the frosting to pump it up. Just my 2-cents! :)3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMBuild-up and delivered, likeBuild-up and delivered, like eating at a nightclub, DJ and all but they back it up with service and food.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AM
