I had to get on here and review Maggiano's in Scottsdale because the service we received was so outstanding! \nMy daughter decided to go here for her 13th birthday dinner. When we arrived, on a Sunday night, we were surprised that there was a 20 minute wait. We decided to have appetizers and drinks in the bar while waiting for our table. The manager asked what we were celebrating and we told him. \n\nWe were seated just as we were finished with our apps and drinks and the manager handed my daughter the specials menu specifically. Printed on the menu was a little note at the bottom that said Happy 13th Birthday. I know this was an easy thing for them to do but it really made her feel special. \n\nOur server was excellent. He steered my husband away from the wine they were featuring and offered a taste of it. My husband agreed that the house special was not up to par and the server suggested a wine that was much better and less expensive! My daughter and I split the Gnocci and we were surprised to learn that when you order off the Classic menu, you get to choose another item that they wrap up and send home with you! Like you are a guest at their home! The gnocci were very good and one serving was more than enough for the two of us. We also shared the Caesar salad which was good too. My husband had the chicken Parmesan which comes with a side of spaghetti. I enjoyed his meal too. \n\nWe were deciding what to do for dessert when our waiter came and cleared the table telling us we needed to make some room for some items. (Hint, hint). A few moments later a large platter of their dessert sampler plate arrived with candles lit. It was beautiful! And the bar brought over a virgin chocolate martini that was equally exquisite. Keep in mind that we ordered none of this. The manager decided to make our celebration special, and he hit the mark! The dessert and drink were comped but even if they had not been, it would have been worth it. \n\nThe food is great, the service is excellent! \n\nO
