January 15, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

Scottsdale has more spas per capita than any other city in the U.S.—so whether you’re looking for the latest medi-spa technology or a new-agey, bohemian vibe, there’s sure to be something for you. It's a good thing, too—after spending all day touring the beautiful desert, you'll be grateful for some pampering.

What a super spectacular restaurant is this place. It is because of this restaurant I play the fiddle today. The music is extraordinary and the welcoming is heart felt. This restaurant and bar has maintained an incredible music talent and inviting atmosphere since I was 6 years old . I am 51.5 years old today. I plan to attend often and give them my support. This is one of the only places in Phoenix Arizona you can go hear live country music today. One of the band members is famous - he wrote a country hit (Me and You 'sung by Kenny Chesney - this is his career song)'; was a star in a famous country band (McBride and the Ride) is the lead guitar player for a famous country star - when he tours 'Lyle Lovett'. On top of all that I learned the drummer played for Glen Campbell . Wow, what an all star line up. They are kind and have big hearts and they love to build their family legacy of great food, wonderful hospitality and unbelievably live country music.

Rockbar Inc

Scottsdale's most appreciated bar/music venue. Its one of the very few places in Old Town Scottsdale that is known for being a place where even Arizona's professional musicians go on their time off, to have a great time and listen to live music. If your looking for a place with excellent live music, people, cheep drink prices and great service, take the time to stop by and check it out.

While vacationing in Scottsdale recently, we wandered from our hotel over to RockBar the first night we arrived. I guess we weren't expecting such a fun, loud, party town, and RockBar really kicked off that feeling for us. It was the best!! We walked inside to a loud band playing awesome covers, meandered outside to enjoy the warm October evening weather, and eventually headed upstairs to the open-air roof-top bar and patio. We played pool out there, watched sports on their TVs, and even ordered food delicious food (I recommend the pizzas). We had so much fun that even after a full day of exploring town the next day, we ended up back there with friends on Saturday night also! Their staff is outstanding! Seriously, every aspect from our front door greeting from David, to our food delivery by Jack, and our favorites: bartenders Scott and Linds, we were overwhelmed by the friendly attitudes. It's seriously one of the most fun and well-rounded places I've been in a long time! Can't wait for our next visit down!

Hello from the Vin. Yes indeed another review, this time I got into the Matrix fun zone. So now I fuel up my tank and race into the area for some Major good times. Gets busy and that is to be expected with how much is going on there. I suggest planning it like any get away cause I hope to see the place grow in activities throughout the slow hours of business. Yes this is a place that is geared towards making memories for you and your loved ones. I am planning on returning to see if I can bowl. ???? Have fun be safe and dont worry about social distance cause I am confident it is addressed top notch and activity abided by. First off, That's not the easiest task to enforce, I'm sure and I've seen the nice reminders. ???? Any how here are some photos of the staff that makes it happen and complex. ✌☝️NN????

Rusty Spur Saloon

Reviewed By w57chev - Columbia, United States

Everyone who walks around Old Scottsdale looking for a fun afternoon in a cool shady spot with very cold beer and live music needs to check out The Rusty Spur Saloon. Friendly staff, some locals, and some not so locals make up the crowd. The music is excellent talent and good time stuff, but be warned that the afternoons turn to evenings kinda quick here.
