Located at the Phoenician in Scottsdale is the Phoenician Tavern, a casual, lively restaurant that serves lunch and dinner daily. The menu at the Phoenician Tavern is “pub grub,” but one of the diners’ favorites is the Nashville Hot Fried Chicken Bites. These bite-sized pieces of fried chicken come with buttermilk ranch and da garlic dill pickle, with a tang to counter the richness of the chicken. Diners also rave about the dessert here, especially the hot cookie skillet, which is a chocolate chip and pecan cookie topped with vanilla ice cream.

Located inside the Desert Botanical Garden is Gertrude’s, a restaurant that focuses on serving sustainable fare for lunch, brunch, and dinner. Diners can get dinner. The fried chicken at Gertrude’s is some of the best fried chicken in Phoenix, but it’s not the classic take on the dish. Instead, they serve Korean Fried Chicken that comes with brussels sprouts, kimchi vinaigrette, yogurt, sesame seeds, and Korean BBQ sauce. Gertrude’s has a huge outdoor seating area, and the restaurant’s interior has floor to ceiling windows. This allows diners to take in the beauty of their surroundings at the botanical garden.

White Chocolate Grill - Scottsdale

The White Chocolate Grills’ tagline is “an Honest American Dining Experience.” This is an apt motto for the Scottsdale eatery because it features a menu of truly classic American fare: burgers, barbecue, salads, sandwiches, and of course, fried chicken. The fried chicken here comes in tenders, served buffalo style. Tossed in a medium-spicy sauce, they're served with couscous, French fries, and bleu cheese dressing. The stars of the house at White Chocolate Grill are the desserts. The eatery’s name is apt because they all feature white chocolate: the white chocolate brownie, white chocolate banana cream pie, white chocolate raspberry cheesecake, and French white chocolate bread pudding (and a few more). All the desserts are big enough to share, so diners should be sure to leave extra room at the end of their meal.
