   We went during restaurant week, and the food was amazing! There were also some wine tastings available from their distributors, so that was an added bonus. We'll be back!

   We had such a great dinner at Pinard Wine Bar & Restaurant! The vibe is cozy but stylish—feels like a little European getaway right here in Scottsdale. The food was seriously amazing. I had the Parisian Chicken and it was one of the best dishes I’ve had in a while—a juicy Frenched chicken breast with garlicky mashed potatoes, mushrooms, crisp haricot vert, and a rich, savory mushroom cream sauce that tied everything together. The wine list is impressive—over 40 options by the glass! You can choose from curated red, white, or sparkling flights, which is such a fun way to try something new. Our server was so helpful and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming. Already planning our next visit. This spot is a gem!

   There were 7 of us at the table. We like good food at any price. This was not it, very average. We were expecting a bit more upscale on taste. We had fried artichokes which were ok, the tenderloin skewers were over cooked and tough, the med salad was somewhat tasteless, the gazpacho was grainy and lumpy with little tomato flavor the garlic over shadowed the flavor, the sea bass vera cruz was excellent. Do not plan on going back.

   So bad!!! Service wasn’t just bad - it was non existent. We don’t see our server again after we placed our order. It took over an hour to get our food & and our 2 very different dishes tasted exactly the same - both no bueno. Very unfortunate. We really wanted to love this place. Def not going back.

   Outstanding night at Pinard! 5-star experience all the way around!! Such a beautiful atmosphere on the patio. Our server Shawn was so attentive and helpful with entree, cocktail and wine selections. Chef didn’t miss a beat tonight especially with his delicious spin on short rib ravioli from the specials menu.

    We went here with another couple last night and had a wonderful time. This was our first dining experience here and I have to say the food, service and ambiance was top notch! Its so appreciated when service is welcoming, helpful and kind. We spoke at length with our waiter Sean, he did a truly wonderful job. We ordered 4 different apps all done very well and tasted good. Dinner entres were also very tasty, the sea bass, veal chop and the Chef's special which was a ravioli stuffed with braised beef (a few ravolis were a tad under cooked but still good) also had some martinis and a nice bottle of white wine to accompany our meal. The lemon jello like dessert recommended by the waiter was Ah-mazing! We will definately be back again and telling more friends about this establishment!

    Thank you, Rita! We’re so glad your first experience with us was such a memorable one. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance—and that Sean made your evening even more special. We appreciate your kind words and your thoughtful feedback on the ravioli, which we’ll be sure to share with the kitchen. And we’re thrilled you loved the lemon dessert—it’s a hidden gem! We can’t wait to welcome you and your friends back again soon.
