08.20.2010: Talking Stick Casino

There is a new remodeled casino about 5 miles from our house. So, one day, in between out chaos and travels, we decided to check it out...a mini-"stay"cation. So we went over there to explore the casino & hotel...and check out the restaurants...oh, and have a few drinks and play a few slots! It turns out to be a gorgeous casino/resort. It has nice little bars (with good prices), nice views, lounges, very clean...good slots! So we explored & took some pics. We will definitely be back for drinks & mini-getaways! There is also a restuarant on the top floor called "Orange Sky". It is arguably the BEST restaurant in Phoenix! The views are amazing, there is an awesome bar area with live music & floor to ceiling windows....and thats all before you even get seated. So, on the dinner & the lobster bisque....best I have ever had....moment of silence in honor of the bisque. Ahhhhh...

Then the steak....holy moly...takes a pretty good steak to impress me...as I have had my fair share...but this one was amazing. In the top 3 easily!!! Then the sides.....mmmmmmm! Service was fabulous! Wine list was extensive and very well priced. Oh, and George Benson was eating at the table next to us. All in all....a great amazing experience!!I hope it never loses that amazing feeling, as we will definitely be going back again soon!!!!

Disclaimer....no, I was not paid to review the restaurant...but wouldn't mind some comps for the props...in case anyone is reading! :)

View out the side...to the north west-ish
