    Service was great. A little bit too noisy for me sitting at a high top in the bar area. Beautiful restaurant. Food was great. Thank you.

    I'm a recent transplant to Scottsdale and I had the pleasure of eating at the Americano again. We decided to post up at the bar. They offer a great selection of spirits and cocktails.. I started with an espresso martini which was fantastic. The food was the star here and my buddy and I split the pork belly, oysters, and Peter sent out some sweet corn agnolotti when I asked him what I should try... I'm still dreaming about the pork belly. And I haven't had better sweet corn anything than when I unfortunately lived in Lancaster County, PA for a bit. That, with some lovely whiskey and cocktail choices from the bar ensured an enjoyable evening. So much so that after dinner we decided on a nightcap at Tell Your Friends downstairs. I must say, with it being so close to my office in Scottsdale for when I'm in town, I'm definitely going to become a regular at the Americano. Peter McQuaid is an amazing chef, Ashley and Tyler are fantastic bartenders. The food, service, and quality is all top notch!

    The food was a bit uneven — the pulp was flavorful and well done, while the tuna tartare lacked seasoning and felt flat. The salmon was fine but forgettable, and the king crab pasta stood out as the highlight of the meal. Overall, the experience felt overpriced for the quality. That said, the service was warm, attentive, and knowledgeable, with particularly good wine and desert recommendations.

    I was disappointed with the entrée I ordered my steak, medium rare and a steak came out cold and had absolutely no redness inside. Also, the sauce is tasted horribly. I will never come back again. 
    The AmericanoResponded on June 13, 2025
    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. It’s important to us to know when something doesn’t align with expectations and a steak served without the proper temperature and flavor balance is not reflective of what we aim to deliver, and I appreciate you bringing that to our attention. We’re always working to refine every aspect of the guest experience, and feedback like yours helps guide those efforts. Should you ever decide to visit again, we’d love the opportunity to show you the standard we strive for every day. I will leave my contact with you so we can hopefully host you back again soon!
