My wife and I stopped by for lunch and decided to share the arugula salad, heirloom tomatoes, a prime rib sandwich, a chicken sandwich, and crème brûlée. Everything was absolutely fantastic! The chicken sandwich alone makes the drive from Scottsdale worthwhile, and the other dishes were fresh, well-balanced, and expertly prepared. You can definitely tell when a chef prioritizes local ingredients over generic suppliers, and that was evident in every dish we tried. I'm eagerly looking forward to dining at Confluence for dinner and exploring the rest of their menu!

If I lived closer I'd be there every week even if it was just a small bite and some of the great selection of wine. She made us some of the best Old Fashions we've had. Please support this gem.
