Why go
Tash is a practical Scottsdale dinner pick when location and ease matter more than a documented chef, awards, or wine-list reputation. Book it for a low-friction evening near Talking Stick; compare Orange Sky first if the night needs a stronger special-occasion feel or a more serious wine-led decision.
About Tash
Tash is a Scottsdale dinner option with a smart casual dress code and a limited public profile. The clearest planning facts are its evening schedule and the days it is closed, so consider it a dinner-only listing unless the venue confirms otherwise directly.
Plan for an easy evening, not for a research-heavy splurge
Tash is best evaluated on basics rather than on claims about cuisine, chef, awards, pricing, menu format, or beverage program. If your group needs a specific experience, confirm those details with the venue before making plans.
Details are not available for a wine list, pairing format, tasting menu, or named chef. If those details matter to the night, compare your options carefully and check official sources before committing. Other options to consider include Orange Sky, Blue Coyote Cafe, and Blue Coyote Cantina.
Use the schedule to your advantage
Dinner is the relevant meal. Tash is open Monday from 5–10 PM, closed Tuesday and Wednesday, open Thursday from 5–10 PM, open Friday and Saturday from 5–11 PM, and open Sunday from 5–10 PM. Lunch service is not listed.
For a weekend dinner, planning ahead is sensible because Friday and Saturday have the latest hours. For Monday, Thursday, or Sunday, the listed window is shorter, so build the rest of the evening around a 5–10 PM schedule.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Tash reads like a destination restaurant shaped by its resort corridor address: expansive in scale, deliberately composed and built to stand up to the dramatic McDowell Mountains and high desert sky. The room leans toward ceremony rather than casual stumble-in dining — arrival and setting are part of the point. Mediterranean-focused cooking and seafood-forward signatures anchor a menu that suits a polished, slightly opulent evening. The overall feel is romantic and resort-minded: you come for both the plated moments and the landscape that frames them, with service and pacing tuned to a more formal resort tempo.
Best For
This is a place for evening occasions that matter — date nights, celebrations and group dinners tied to a resort visit. Because Tash is framed as a geographic destination rather than a neighborhood drop-in, it works best when you plan to make the meal a focal point of the night. Mountain views and the resort corridor context underline that it suits guests who expect attentive service and a composed dining experience. Dinner is the obvious booking, especially for those seeking a polished Mediterranean menu in a scenic, ceremonial setting.
Ordering Tips
When you arrive, orient your order around the menu’s standout items: the Paella Mixta and Lobster Ravioli are signature plates, with King Salmon and the Flatbread Pizza rounding out the highlights. These selections underscore the kitchen’s Mediterranean and seafood emphasis and give a clear sense of the restaurant’s strengths. Given the restaurant’s destination positioning and service tempo, allow time for courses to arrive as part of a measured evening; prioritize the signature dishes if you want a representative tasting of what Tash does best.

Restaurant context
How Tash compares in Scottsdale
Tash is the easier dinner choice when the group wants convenience around Talking Stick and does not want to fight for a reservation. Orange Sky is the stronger cross-shop for a special-occasion mood, especially if the table cares more about setting and a higher-touch evening than simple availability.
For a casual meal, Blue Coyote Cafe and Blue Coyote Cantina are better fits when the priority is a relaxed, lower-pressure night. Tash makes more sense when dinner needs to feel a little more adult than a quick casual stop but not as planned-out as a splurge reservation.
If value and group flexibility matter more than ambiance, compare it with Spinato's Pizzeria and Family Kitchen or Grassroots Kitchen & Tap Scottsdale. Those are safer choices for mixed-age groups or diners who want a familiar format; Tash is the pick when the group wants an evening dinner setting and easy logistics.
