We pulled in to the famous Tarbell's to enjoy a great meal. We were pleasantly surprised to find that they were celebrating the end of summer feast featuring crab, colossal shrimp, mussels, clams, sausage, corn, potatoes and corn bread. The Chardonnay and great draft beer was bottomless. We were greeted by Sam a debonair, suave gentleman that arranged for us to sit. We were well taken care of by our waitress. What a great way to celebrate our birthday's! We finished our meal at the bar with creme brûlée and drinks. A superb night to remember.
Superb dinner, superb service, superb wine list! Certainly appreciate that they plated our shared salad separately so we wouldn't make a nasty mess on the plates!
Just wished I had had a different dessert: the cheesecake is an edible bricks laying in your stomach just like that!
Spectacular dining experience. Our friends in Phoenix suggested Tarbell's, and we are so glad. They have a small private dining room which h sears 6 comfortably. Our friends know Mark. The wine list is great. We had individual glasses which were very good, and true healthy 6 ounce pours. I had the Salmon which was excellent. Overall a fine dining experience.
My husband brought me here for our anniversary and it was such a beautiful experience. All of the staff was very attentive and kind. Our waters never got even remotely empty. We had personalized recommendations for wine. Thorough explanation of specials and the menu in general. Our starters came out in a timely fashion as well as the main courses. Meanwhile we had yummy bread and oil with herbs to snack on.
I had a white wine paired with the organic local greens as a starter (10/10) and the grilled organic Scottish salmon for the entree (8.5/10) - I wasn’t a huge fan of the saffron but it’s a personal flavor type thing for me. The salmon itself was cooked perfectly. My husband gives the same dish a 10/10. Everything was beautifully presented. Then, at the end of the night Mark Tarbell himself thanked us for coming and the hostesses wishes us a happy anniversary. It was an amazing experience. So happy to have come here. Thank you to the entire staff. You all are amazing. 🤎
Outstanding restaurant. Incredible food and drink options. Service is amazing. Always my go to for special occasions
The restaurant allows guests to hand-select the wine from the wine store to drink at the restaurant. The staffs were very friendly. The sommelier was very knowledgeable and can definitely help you pick your favorite wine within your budget.
I would recommend you to try the pan seared chicken. The sauce complements very well with the juicy chicken.
Outstanding dining experience! Met here with friends while visiting Scottsdale. Every dish was out of this world. Make sure not to skip dessert, the cheesecake itself is worth a flight back to Arizona!
Very good upscale restaurant with unique offerings and extensive wine menu. The staff were very courteous. Our server had a nice personality without being over the top. All our food was delicious and the cheesecake is something special ( topped with rosemary salted caramel). The tables are a little close together for my liking in this type environment. Overall very pleased.
Most delicious food ever 🤩 great service and great food.. wonderful atmosphere. Great place to take your date 😀 loved the food and wine.

This restaurant probably doesn't need a positive review given its following and history but there are a few things I want to highlight. First, dining at Tarbell's is a luxury experience. The menu is filled with a variety of entrees and other dishes that cover a wide range of tastes. The service is impeccable with people teaming to ensure your every need is met. One of the most unique features is their willingness to split entrees if you are torn between two dishes. In my case, I had the chicken and seared halibut which you can see in the photo I posted. It's a wonderful way to extend your experience without adding cost. If you drink alcoholic beverages then be prepared to see your bill rise considerably. Mixed drinks and wine come at a premium price. That is pretty typical for fine dining. The one dish I cannot recommend is the corn ribs appetizer. Ours lacked flavor and substance although it was interesting to look at. Really more of a novelty dish. I look forward to my next visit there and always appreciate how delicious the food is and the masterful preparation of chicken, pasta, seafood and steaks. It a gem that I hope will be with us for many years to come.
Wow this place is soooo great. They went above and beyond for my husbands birthday. The food was delicious and the service was great
If you haven’t been to Tarbell’s, be intentional, go this week! If you’ve been, you know what I mean! Perfect for romance, friends time or business. They’ve mastered the classy casual vibe, really mastered! Amazing food with presentations so lovely you are reluctant to disturb the view by eating it, but do! Because the taste is amazing. The service top notch. Thanks Javier! Looking out at their patio sent me back to somewhere, I don’t know, maybe Brazil or Europe. The larger than usual high top tables in the bar area are perfect for eating and conversation.
