We love this place for wonderful southwest Mexican food. I’d say don’t fill up on the chips and salsa but they are both too good not to.

Sugar Bowl
4005 N Scottsdale RdA fun iconic local ice cream parlor that will not disappoint.
This place is our favorite for brunch. We have had the gourmet pancakes (the banana bread and mixed berry ones are both amazing!) and they do something magical with their eggs. The omelets and scrambles are so light and fluffy. I also highly recommend their avocado toast if you are looking for something lighter. Don’t miss this stop for breakfast. They serve lunch too but we always get breakfast foods.
