Lol at the down vote. I guess someone hates pizza.

Valley Ho 10 years ago was the shite, great pool scene before pools were trendy. The fine dining restaurant they had, Trader Vic's I believe, was very good.

For OP, not really an upscale place but great food and location (next to Fashion Square):

Roaring Fork, LINK, worth going just for the Green Chile Mac & Cheese.

Roaring Fork is really good and they have a great happy hour special. Their food portions are pretty generous as well.


You can get a massive burger and fries off their happy hour menu for only $10


ETA: One of the guys in senior leadership at my husband's work visits their Scottsdale office once a month(the guy lives in Boston). He will go with my husband and others to happy hour and they frequently go to Roaring Fork.

No I apparently have a serial downvoter.
My Valley Ho experience was more like 20+ years ago...the place was decent, but a bit down at the heels, long before mid-century modern had become chic again. I was traveling with a coworker whose parents had been married/honeymooned in Scottsdale 30 years before, and she persuaded the hotel shuttle driver to take us to the resort where her parents were married. It (can't remember the name) had devolved into total kitsch, with a vaguely tropical theme, with a parrot on a stand in the lobby. Total weirdness, with ancient people hanging out, eager to chat with anyone who paid them a scrap of attention.
