    This was the first time in 6 months that my wife and I had a nice dinner for just the 2 of us. Sandy's was very quite when we arrived at 6:10 pm and the DM Derrick seated us and he was extremely nice, cheerful and had a great smile. We had drinks first, ceviche second, tacos third and then dessert. It was excellent!

    Everyone working was cool, last call at 8 is pretty early, I think it’s more of a lunch spot than dinner

    Location is great, food was very good. Server was very nice and friendly but struggled taking the order. Of course what came out from the kitchen was very wrong. Rather than not eating with my group I ate what was served and what I ate was very good. Even with service hiccup I would return.

    What a fantastic place to eat and relax. What a view too!! We celebrated a birthday and really enjoyed it. Great service including the hostess and server …and excellent food. My Mai Tai was so good too. We are from Scottsdale and this was our first visit to Sandy’s. We will go back to Sandy’s when we visit So Cal again for sure.

    Food was delicious. Host was friendly and very considerate-asked if we wanted to move inside because of the cooler temperatures. Waitress was very good & friendly as well. Second time there in a week. Both times were great experiences. Valet is a little pricey for 1 hr parking though.

    Disappointment long wait for having a reservation while tables sat empty. Parked in the garage the app said to and was informed they don't validate tickets anymore. Constantly felt rushed to be done with the meal

    First time and it was a great experience. Wasn't busy at all when we arrived at 4:30. Waitress was friendly and came around often. The food was very tasteful and I recommend the wanton dip starter!
