Raven's View

Had a great time. Service was a little slow but the view, drinks and food killed it! We will definitely return, especially when a little warmer. Highly recommend the deviled eggs and the poke bowl. Moscow was great!

The vibe is awesome. Food was great. We were there for happy hour which had some good deals.

Great food, service, and drink menu. Totally yummy and feel at home with friendly staff. Don't miss Glade on music night!

Great food, happy hour, and service!! We loved the board and bottle special, Mac n cheese, & French onion soup. The patio is lovely as well. Can’t wait to come back!

Great lil spot. Back of Cave Creek AZ close to Bartlett Lake n Golf Course. Lil Wine Bar . Got there just before rush (4pm) staff is very friendly. Good wine list. Their House Chard "Simply" is light refreshing n flavorful. Great place to bring your pup

Sure this is a wine bar but they also have a small selection of beer, including local brews. We split a very tasty flat bread and a chick pea salad. I don’t really think they have a “chef” back there but the food was pretty up scale. Really friendly staff and they were kept busy. I suggest they watch the door better since the hostess was multi tasking and sometimes left people waiting. Nice bar seating, as well as plenty of inside and outside seating. Easy access just off Cave Creek road. Crazy thing though, the Waze app took us through backroads and a housing development for some reason. Great place to hang out for a minute.

I found this little place by accident, I was enjoying some off-road fun, a bit later than I expected just outside scottsdale. And was hungry. Googled restaurants and it was 5 min down the road... Food, Service, and environment. Was Awesome . Definitely a must stop.

This wine bar is a great place to hang out at on the weekends. I had the Cuban sandwich that was great. They have many wines to choose from if you're a wino. The scenery from outside is beautiful, it overlooks Troon North's golf course with mountains in the background. Like I said, a great place to escape for a while.

What a great little restaurant and meeting place! Food and the music was so wonderful. Great indoor and outdoor dining. Really enjoyed our time and evening.

Fantastic brunch with friends in Cave Creek. Loved the sunsets at the private wedding event and delicious menu, pasta meatballs, salad and fresh bread. Elegant and polished aesthetic.

June 18, 2023: Dropped in @Raven's View on Dad's Day! Fantastic service from Lana! Visited with Super Cameron! Excellent Food & Wine! We had a BLAST! Fabulous Experience...A Great Customer Focus! The food speaks for itself....so does the awesome location, the personnel, the service! Can't wait to try KiKi Rae's in downtown Cave Creek...another Kym style restaurant! We will be there! ****************************************** Great Happy Hour! Super Customer Service. Love the Changes Made since Kym came on the scene. She made a Great Footprint in our Desert with the Raven's View!

This place is so good! After playing in the snow I wanted to fly into this coup. The beer was cold the the food was hot! I got the Italian grilled cheese and soup, it was delicious! My friend got the Bartlett French dip and I think that took the prize. So freaking good! I can’t wait to come back, just sad I know the snow will be gone.

Had a great time & excellent service & food while getting yo see some amazing live music by Glade Wilson on the outdoor patio, unbelievable views. Food was great, the Thai Salad w Ahi Tuba was awesome, as well as the meatballs, I will most definitely be back!!

Enjoyed an evening at the Raven. Stars were out, service was great. We loved the atmosphere and had the chicken ravioli and cobb salad. Charcuterie is great there. Would highly recommend this establishment.

Service was fast, staff is very friendly and attentive. Food was really good. The place is kind of small so be prepared and make reservations. They had heaters and blankets on the chairs.

Awesome experience. Experience service, food was fantastic. Krislyn was our waitress and she was phenomenal. Chef stopped by our table after I gave him a thumbs up as he was walking by and we praised him on his food.

Great experience. Unfortunately the wild fire was close. I hate seeing the Arizona desert on fire. Great food and atmosphere. Will be back for sure.

Very good food and service, atmosphere superb 👌 waitress very polite will recommend this place and will go again

Reserved a table on the patio for happy hour. There are several tables inside, at the bar inside, at the bar on the patio outside, on the patio and to the left of the building. There are heaters as well as blankets on the patio. We shared a bottle of House red and a charcuterie board. They also have gluten-free bread!! It was delicious. The views are beautiful! There is live music as well.

Will definitely be our new go to place. Atmosphere, service, food and servers were a 10. Employees are very fun but, extremely professional at the same time. The wine selection covers almost everyone's wants.

After driving by Raven's View for months during early morning rides, we finally stop in during their normal business hours. Boy were we impressed! The staff (Preston), the drinks, and the food was 1st rate all the way. We will be returning and anxious to try the other dishes on the menu.

This was a wonderful place for a nice lunch had great service and good selection of wine , and Panini's for lunch. I had gotten the Cubano Panini and French onion soup.

Had family in from Wisconsin and knew we wanted to bring them to Raven’s View. We were able to sit outside and enjoy our charcuterie board & wine along with that spectacular view!! Wow!!

Amazing service and views! I was very pleased by our experience and will certainly be back. The food was delicious!

Great food and views are cool. Owner gal was very impressive in the way she helped out and interacted with her diners.

I recently made a reservation here after seeing it in the past while driving to and from Seven Springs. Especially at night, when the lights from the restaurant really catch your eye in the otherwise dark, remote stretch of road. It’s definitely out there. Probably one of the furthest northeast spots still considered Scottsdale. This distance is part of the charm. The location offers beautiful desert views, and the building itself is eye catching, especially when it’s all lit up in the evening. We came for happy hour and ordered several appetizers, which were all excellent. The entrees were also very good flavorful and well prepared. It’s a peaceful, scenic place to eat, with a view and ambiance that really set it apart from most restaurants in the Valley. If you're looking for a unique destination that feels a bit off the grid, Raven’s View is worth the drive.

First timers here for an early dinner on 1/17/25. What a charming place it was. Food was fantastic and the service was excellent. Bre, our waitress and server was very good, very friendly and very accommodating! We had 5 appetizers and all were very good! We sipped on prosecco and red wine samplers. A lovely evening was had at this remote and beautiful backdrop desert landscape location. Best to arrive for lunch and leave right after sunset as the night drive back to Phoenix can be a bit long and woozy. We will be back!

Such a great place to enjoy stunning views, a great meal, and live music. Happy Hour is the perfect time to enjoy this spot, with lots of featured items and great prices. The staff is always so accommodating, and we never feel rushed. The perfect place to enjoy an Arizona sunset with a great glass of wine! Reservations are recommended, and dogs are welcome on the patio.

New favorite place in this area. Like the "out in the middle of nowhere" feel, like you know a secret place to go. Good wine selection. Interesting decor/atmosphere. French onion soup was warming and delicious on a chilly day. Will be back to sit around the fire tables with friends soon.

They were slammed for valentines day, but they got us in. The resturant was fun and the view was beautiful. The food was great. I'd love to go back.

Amazing experience if you visit during sunset, in fact it is magical. Dog friendly. Only reason I did not give it 5 stars is they had a live singer inside and he was way too loud. To the point that you could not hear others talking to you, so we were forced to leave, as the outdoor patio was full. But I will go back when they do not have annoying live music.

Fun little unique place to visit. I like the flights of wine, they have excellent choices. The meat and cheese trays are fun to try with interesting cheeses and pair well with the wine. We has the beef sandwich, the bread was really toasty and cheesy. The pretzel sticks with cheese and ground mustard were good. The deviled eggs were quite good there were tiny bits of jalapeno in them which was an added surprise. I'm not a huge fan of deviled eggs but I would recommend these. The pitcher of white sangria was enjoyed, I recommend this, it wasn't too sweet, very refreshing and lite. Our only problem with the visit was that we had requested a table outside - we were seated inside but told if something opened they would move us, something did open they said they would move us and then came back to tell us that someone else got our table.. My husband was quite disappointed by the way this went down.. it's understandable since this is a tiny place with not a great amount of seating to be had. The problem was that we were told we were moving to the table outside and then it didn't happen.

Wow, this place is COOL. A fancy dive-in wine/bar cafe in the middle of nowhere. Live music, and amazing views amongst the quiet, gorgeous surroundings. We wish we could have sat outside for longer, but there were so many flies we had to move indoors. Luckily there are beautiful views indoors too. The food was pretty good, but there were a few things that could have made it great. The pretzels were warm on the outside but still a bit cooler on the inside, though the cheese was very good. I am used to having pretzels served, soft, and hot. The sangria tasted more like a wine-flavored tea and my panini was on the bland side, though the texture and ingredients were en pointe. I just feel like for the price point, all of the flavoring should be perfect. I most enjoyed the side salad and the onion soup -- the flavors were great. I'd come back with friends if we were in the area.

We came here to see the sunset not realizing you don't see the sun setting from the patio area. That was a bummer! The place is very nice though and inside decor was great. Excellent appetizers during happy hour! Nice vibes with live music.

I should preface I completed an exhaustive hike nearby before entering Raven's View. We were a large group and had an opportunity to sit at the bar but ended up with a table near the front. In a matter of minutes the place became PACKED! Unfortunately, it led to our service becoming sporadic, taking 10-15 minutes to get water, followed by a delay in getting our food ordered and eventually actually eating. We noticed others who entered after us, leaving having finished their meal. It was discouraging but something remained consistent. The staff was incredibly apologetic and sincerely made an effort to acknowledge their errors. The food was also tasty and I got the impression I might return and have a completely different experience. That is if I'm out in the middle of nowhere North Scottsdale.

Not sure how this has a 4.6 rating other than the server and the view. The "wine bar" doesn't have any big reds by the glass. The Argentina Malbec was average at best. Ordered the margarita flatbread. That is something to avoid, ironically this is what was recommended. First the bread was burnt all around the edges. Somehow the bread was cold and the cheese wasn't melted yet the bread burnt... For an unknown reason it was drenched with balsamic vinegar. This left it so tart and vinegar tasting it wasn't worth eating. What a shame, the location is fabulous otherwise this is definitely a 1 star.

We were excited to take our visitors here but it was not great. The view was mid but the food was good. The hostess was really off putting and made us feel like we were trespassing. When we walked in she basically asked what were we doing there… umm we would like to be seated for food and drinks for happy hour? It was absolutely empty. She made a big production of “looking” for a table for us and took us to a spot with a reserved sign. All the tables have reserved signs, it slowly filled up as we watched other people have the same experience. We did not feel welcome. All the views from where we were was of parking. It’s a beautiful area in general (we live near there) but there are other places to appreciate it. Dog friendly! Meatball sliders - great Ceaser salad - good French onion soup - good Happy hour prices - very good

Great wine and beautiful views, but the host and waitstaff were unfortunately very unwelcoming from the moment we walked in. We even had reservations, yet we genuinely felt like we weren’t wanted there. We still stayed and supported the business, but the service left a lot to be desired. Sadly, we most likely won’t be returning because of the staff experience.

Beautiful wine bar in a gorgeous location however the hostess was arrogant and less than inviting as was our waitress. We had the whipped ricotta, which was amazing but not sure we would go back due to the inhospitable staff.

We went back to Raven's View and we were actually thrown out of the restaurant..... Two hour maximum stay🤔.. Never happened to us before. The locals are the bread and butter of every restaurant but some don't care... My Cobb salad was very strange... Chicken lunch meat and shredded Mozzarella... mmmmhhh?? 😕
