Orange Sky

This was my second visit to Orange Sky. We took my brother for his birthday and we had the best service. Our waiter was attentive and recommended choices from the menu. The food was very flavorful and uniquely prepared. We will be back

Food was really good, ambience was amazing. Definitely try the king crag dish, it’s on point lol it’s expensive, my bill for 2 people was $ 295 with a $ 30 tip. But definitely worth checking out.

Just a note, I tried advising management of this experience but the customer follow through is non existent.
I’ve been living in Arizona for 20 years and been excited to experience new hot spots. My experience with Orange Sky is by far the worst dining Destination in more than 20+ yrs.
If you truly want to experience the «Total Dinning» luxury, Burbeon Steak @ The Princess is priceless.
I’ve never been in an atmosphere were the server treats you so bad. We made a reservation for the premium table with a $ 200 minimum.
What we didn’t know was we were forgoing to option for the fine dining experience.
I get it & I truly agree these tables are hard to get therefore they require a minimum dollar to be spent. Our server made us so uncomfortable that all we wanted was to get us the heck out of there.
There are so many great dinning destinations in AZ to experience! I’m happy to know Orange Sky is one restaurant that we will not come back to again.

This place is sooooooooooo amazing the views are to die for. I recommend going around sunset so breathtaking. The food the drinks the service was all great I definitely will be coming back again. Such a hidden gem
Best birthday dinner

So it was my husband’s birthday and he wanted a restaurant with ambiance. OK — We had heard good things about Orange Sky so I made a reservation 2 weeks in advance. 2 weeks is not enough time if you want a premium seat. The view is beautiful (if you can see it — we could not from our table) and you must spend at least $ 200 to even reserve a premium table.
Then we get there and immediately told to go to the bar and have a drink. What is the point in making a reservation if I have to wait. (In my opinion it is just a ploy to get you to spend $ on $ 15 drinks… I’m just sayin). While we were waiting for the table another couple came in and was immediately seated. That really pissed me off. I finally made my husband go up to the hostess and complain. About 3 minutes later the manager came over and took us to our table.
When we frequent these types of restaurants we expect a certain level of service. Our waiter was nice but not very attentive. It is the little things — I asked for ice tea no lemon and sugar — sure enough my tea had lemon in it. Then he handed me the sugar packet dish. I told him 3 times I don’t need sugar but he never took the dish away. I asked for bread and that didn’t come until our meal was served. Then he brought us the check and he never came back for payment. Another waitress came over and took it for us. He showed up as we were walking out the door.
The food was o.k. Of course the waiter recommended the most expensive item on the menu and my husband ordered it. (Did I hear the word — UPSELL?) He had the rib eye with crab and I had the scallops. They were o.k. But was it worth $ 200? I don’t think so.

Although I had originally planned this as a business meeting for three; instead of cancelling the reservation, I opted to keep it and convert it to a nice intimate dinner for my wife and I.
As we traversed the long corridor towards the main dining room; my wife commented on the west facing booths for couples, asking why we didn’t get those tables?
I summarily and promptly quipped that I had originally meant this reservation for our foreign business guests, and I didn’t think it was appropriate that we share such an intimate setting.
She chuckled as we proceeded along, and was immediately impressed by the panoramic view presented to us as we entered the main dining room.
We were promptly seated; and Faye, our server, cheerfully greeted us. She went through the customary introductions, and proceeded to take our drink orders. Kyle, her support wait staff, promptly filled our water glasses.
We ordered the Nosh Board, which is a combination of aged fondue, cured meats, and pickles. They were absolutely fabulous, and the inclusion of the Marcona Almonds just added another dimension to this delectable shared plate.
I was quite famished; therefore, I opted for the 17 ounce Rib-​Eye Steak. My wife ordered the New York strip. For our shared sides, we ordered the Asparagus (I love asparagus!), and the Smashed Potatoes.
My steak was quite tender and juicy, and the remaining portion after cooking was quite prodigious. The flavor didn’t quite permeate all the way; probably because of the way that it was prepared, but it was quite delectable, nonetheless.
My wife’s steak wasn’t quite as juicy as mine, and certainly much smaller, but none of this detracted from its overall superb flavor.
Overall, the presentation, care and preparation of our food was definitely superlative. Faye, and her support wait staff were absolutely on point in every aspect — fleetly anticipating our needs as we progressed through the evening’s meal.
And what about the view that everyone comments about?
Well, it’s always quite challenging to articulate the experience that accompanies a personal visual perspective. All I can say is that you need to experience it yourself; especially during a beautiful sunset because it definitely is quite splendid.

I wanted to try this place because of the good reviews… I am very disappointed… I took my boyfriend here for our anniversary and we will not be returning.
Here are the things that went wrong:
— I made reservations for 8:15pm and we were not seated until past 9pm.
— My boyfriend ordered a steak as medium, but it came out well done.
— The dessert with the surprise anniversary message had my name misspelled… I called twice to make sure this was right!
Don’t overpay for mediocre food and bad service!

Started off with the cheese plate, corn soup and pear salad! Tasty delights! I had the Elk, it was delish! My husband had lamb and he said it was great! We ordered side of Kale and sweet potatoes, both are excellent side dishes! Had the chocolate tort with ice cream for dessert — kind of like chocolate and peanut butter! We made reservations for a private booth. It was nice, except you could hear both the piano guy and the piped in 60s music, it was horrible music! Food was great, view ways nice, service impeccable! Save your pennies, it is expensive but makes a Great date night!

Such a hidden gem… amazing views, beautiful dining room, great service and outstanding food! We had a group of 8 people at Orange Sky tonight and had a great experience. I started with the honey poached pear salad with cherries… exquisite, followed by the salmon entrée with the faro, corn, cauliflower and potato sides and we finished up with the chocolate tart with peanut butter (my favorite), coconut lime panna cotta, pistachio cake and chocolate mousse cake — so tasty!

The ambience is perfect! The restaurant resides on the 15^th floor and is surrounded by beautiful views. At sunset you have breathtaking views of the orange sky as the sunsets behind the mountains. There are private booths right at the glass, ask for them when making a reservation. As for the food it is good. We shared the pumpkin seed crusted shrimp, best part of the meal. The bread is warm and the butter is soft. We ordered the 8 oz sirloin and the lamb chops. Sirloin had a nice char and good flavor. The lamb chops were just ok. The sweet potato with goat cheese was tasty and the corn with duck egg was good as well. They surprised us with a chocolate dessert and gelato that was rich and delicious.

Fantastic views. Food was pretty good, I enjoyed my steak a lot, the potatoes on the favorites list weren’t so great, we liked the mashed potatoes better. The bottle of Zinfandel the waitress ordered was absolutely amazing.

I had family in town and brought them to Orange Sky for dinner and we had an amazing experience. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was ideal for a relaxing evening to catch up. Our server Demetrio was so kind and insightful, he made our dining experience one to remember.

We took our team here during Unilocal CM Regional Week and ohhhh my goodness, to say that we were blown away would be an understatement! First, the sunset views and private patios cannot be beat! Talk about romantic!
Now on to the food — They serve yummy warm bread to start. Next, I split the caesar salad, filet, and scallops with a co-​worker. The scallops were melt-​in-​your-​mouth good. Holy yum, I could eat them every day! The steak was also amazing but the presentation left much to be desired. For sides, we split the crushed potatoes and kale. Oh my goodness, both were heavenly and the potatoes even had artichoke hearts in them!!! SOLD!
Although this is a pricey meal, I do think that it is worth it! Great views, great service, great food, what else could you want in a fine dining experience? I hinted at my fiancé that this is a very romantic spot and would be great for a special occasion {especially because he loves sunets}. ;) I’m sure that we’ll be back someday soon!

High above the Arizona dessert sits Orange Sky, a super classy restaurant with a stunning view of the surrounding mountains and cityscape. The meal itself was a three star experience, but when you consider the incredible ambiance, I could have been eating McDonalds and wouldn’t have cared.
I was more than impressed with the atmosphere before we even sat down. We waited for our seats on a glass balcony that protected us from the wind and while standing at the handsome curved bar. Walking to our table, we passed many an elegant private room and some booths with views that would have made for perfect date nights. Our group made reservations far in advance, so we were guaranteed a lovely patio setting with panoramic views.
The service was prompt and consistent. My only beef (no pun intended) was with the beef tenderloin, two four ounce cuts presented plainly and without any accompaniments on a large white plate. Talk about feeling like you didn’t get your moneys worth. The beef was tasty, but it left me hungry enough that I needed sides and to share someone else’s plate just to be full.
That one dish was the only hiccup. Other than that, you can expect a memorable dining experience that you’ll surely be reccomending to friends!

Blown away! The photos on the Orange Sky Unilocal page DO NOT do the ambiance or food any justice. The lighting is super dark & sexy, which makes for blah photos, but amazing in-​the-​moment vibes. So, prepare to be impressed! Also, request a spot out on the patio… you’ll feel like you’re on a luxurious vacation somewhere far far away from Phoenix. Very classy.
Food-​wise, also very impressed. I expected glorified casino buffet food, but Orange Sky was truly gourmet. Steaks were cooked expertly, veggie sides were unique and seasonal, and the prices were actually not that bad. Mains were $ 25 – 40, and the wine list is long with plenty of affordable bottles.
We sat outside on the covered patio, but the inside area is huge if you prefer staying out of that glorious dry Arizona air. There are even private seating nooks, for an extra intimate date night.
I was nervous about Orange Sky being too wannabe-​classy, too pricey, or just lacking character, but I was completely proven wrong. Definitely recommended to impress yourself, a date, or a large group!

Ate here while staying at the resort. Our waiter was great, though the food was just ok. I personally wouldn’t eat at this restaurant next time we’re in town.
The olives I. Our martinis were the smallest I’ve been served in a martini. The salads were not great. My salmon was perfectly cooked & delicious.

I had the elk loin and my wife had the bison. Both were very good. The elk was one of the best tasting meats I ever had. The bison was a little bland and tough comparatively. My wife and I share an accompaniment of cauliflower with cheddar which was very bland. They also have no beers on tap which is an automatic deduction for me. I would go back. The price is as suggests. Expect to pay $ 150 – 200 per couple.

Great service
Steller views
Good food
Had a lovely dinner here. Service is excellent. Food is mostly good. Sampled a few things on menu and found most of the food undersalted. That was easily remedied… although would be nice to have some salt on the table.
The scallops and king crab entrees were outstanding… some of the best prepared I have had. Very fresh seafood and not overly fussed with so the quality shines through! The king crab was shelled which was an added treat for me.
There is also an extensive wine menu to choose from.

A bit over rated. Sure the view is spectacular but that’s about it. We had reservations and still had to wait 20 minutes. Our server didn’t bring us enough cocktail menu (1) for a table of 9. He came to take our order and didn’t realize we were short on menus. I know not everyone needs one but how about 2 or 3 menus, especially with the long list of special cocktails and wine, a girl’s gotta read the list!
The timing of the ordering and drinks seemed to lag. I’ve been to many fine dining establishments before and I get that things are staggered but the first girl got her drink 25 minutes before the last girl got hers.
The food was OK. I ordered the filet «Oscar style» thinking it was only an extra $ 12 – 18 bucks for a lump of crab meat (along the lines of other high end steak houses), the kitchen gave me a King crab leg with a $ 29.00 adder on top of my steak.
It’s definitely a place to impress or celebrate but if you are truly a foodie, I’d keep the cash and spend it elsewhere.

Wahlah! …and then there was Orange Sky! They really pay attention to detail.
Make reservations people. This is not an establishment that you just show up at and expect to get a private room with an aerial view of this great county. You can name drop. They don’t care. You’re not getting past the bar… we’ve tried! So that being said, we’ve sat at the bar on several occasions and listened to the sultry sounds from the pianist.
My last visit, Mr. O’Zandra made reservations. Wh-​what?! I couldn’t believe the views as we walked down the corridor to our table. The patio dining was amazing! The staff was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was perfectly prepared.
Nice date night choice!
