- LLogan1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoMy girlfriend and I came to Roman God of Fire for her birthday dinner, and we had an amazing experience! The service was outstanding from start to finish, and the staff made us feel so welcomed. Everyone was extremely friendly and attentive, which made the night even more special. The atmosphere was great, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate her birthday. Definitely a memorable experience, and we will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend!More infoRoman God of Fire$$$$• Italian• Tempe•4.6
- KKevinGoldIndiana •73 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe had such an incredible dinner at The Mission in Old Town Scottsdale last night! Everything from start to finish was top-notch. Our server, Marissa E., and her team were fantastic—so attentive and welcoming throughout the evening. We started with the table-side guacamole, which was a highlight, and the margaritas were absolutely phenomenal. For the main course, the 12-hour pork shoulder tacos were life-changing—so tender and perfectly seasoned. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.
