The food was excellent. I had the duck, which is probably the best I’ve ever had and the person I was with had swordfish which she enjoyed immensely. The service was better than I’ve had in Chandler.

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.

What a pleasant surprise! We had Easter brunch here rather than at a Scottsdale resort where the prices were outrageous. For a very reasonable holiday price, we enjoyed wonderful food, superb service, and a great ambiance, especially given that it is a lobby restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
