    This was our third Happy Hour Dining experience and, once again, it was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed the delightful pleasure of service from Mel the first two times and today we found Cara great as well. All of the staff at this restaurant are professional and very pleasant. We have been exploring all of the food items on the Happy Hour menu and each one is very special. The chilled Blue Point Oysters are always included in whatever we ordered ... and they are the best we have had in Scottsdale. Modern Mussels were very plump with a well --balance and delicious delicious broth. The Dungeness & Blue Crab Cake was small but delicious as well ...and enough when you are also enjoying other menu items. Today I had the best French onion soup. Plenty of melted cheese, and the onions and broth were excellent. I am not a dessert eater but will never pass up a perfect key lime pie and it was worth every calories which I enjoyed after taken home a nice size leftover. We will look forward to dining and exploring the full menu items.

    My wife and I had high hopes for this restaurant. The initial reaction to the venue, atmosphere and seating areas was very positive. The highest point was that service was really great. Unfortunately, the food was extremely mediocre. Some were outright inedible. Oysters Rockefeller and I do not believe they have ever tried them before they made them. Or the chef hasn’t been exposed to goo ones before. 2/10 Ceasar Salad. Extreme garlic. Totally unnecessary. 3/10 Crab cakes. They tasted bitter but not in a good way. The sauce that accompanied it was subpar. 2/10 Truffle Parmesan Fries. Pungent. The sauces were ok. 4/10 French Onion soup was probably the best out of everything we tried. 7/10. Wish the restaurant luck as they at least have an amazing front end staff.

    Can’t recommend Modern Oyster strongly enough! Last night had the restaurant week menu of the most amazing Caesar salad, yummy grilled shrimp with fresh veggies and lemon pepper pasta, and key lime pie with blueberry to die for! Don’t miss the chance to try Modern OBCH during restaurant week. Or any time! You won’t be disappointed. 👍🏼

    2nd time eating here. No issues. Service was good, food was good, ambience was just right. Owner stopped by to check on us, and we got a free Wedding Anniversary dessert. I am looking forward to eating here again. Sorry I am not a big foodie writer, but it is worth the trip to eat here!

Fish and Chips there are amazing as is the Sea Bass entree.... do yourself a favor and go in and try it out.... you won't be ! I must also add that I absolutely love the playlist in that restaurant. The music added to the entire overall experience. thank you Modern Oyster and Chop House I will be back...

    My husband and I had dinner at this restaurant. We arrived 30 minutes early but we were seated immediately. The person who waited on us was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food came swiftly and was delicious. We had the key lime pie which we were told was made by the owners daughter. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. We intend on visiting again.

    #1 recommendation - different music. The music totally aged this place and made it uncool. Music was the 80s or older type that you hear at a diner or hotel bar. Food was decent. Service was decent. But pacing was way off. Spent two hours and left full, but it wasn’t anything special and we probably wouldn’t return.

    Modern was a wonderful experience for us! Food (especially our oysters) was incredible as was the service. We happened to be there for “Throwback Thursday” so bottles of wine were half price— so fun! And, the beautiful patio seating really made it special. Such a great night and will definitely be going back very soon!

    EVERYTHING was EXCELLENT! Every thing we ordered was delicious . We had a salad, oyster sampler, brussel sprouts and cream corn. The food tasted good, perfect temperature, presented well and reasonably priced. The Chef came over at our request so we could Thank him personally. We were a party of 3 and we all loved our food. The bacon French toast bread pudding was to die for. Yummy! Everyone was very friendly and attentive. Every time I visit Scottsdale I will be going to the Modern Oyster Chophouse. 110% worth it!

    Sadly some menu items we enjoyed are no longer on the menu. Protein portions are too large, such as the 22 oz. steak. Oysters are a dozen minimum except for Rockefeller which is a half dozen. We were seated in the bar despite requesting standard seating. No entertainment the Saturday night we visited which we used to enjoy.

    I am concerned that this new location may not be the best. Our reservations were on a Wednesday evening at 6. Not many tables were filled. When we left, the room was vacant. Beautiful set up tables, but no people. Very dark inside, staff was all dressed in black. Food was good, but extremely expensive for the small potions offered . Don’t know if they will make it! Sad

    Modern Oyster is a first class dining experience ... not only serving the best oysters in town ... but a great selection of creative seafood and fish. And if someone in your party prefers something other than seafood, the menu includes a broad selection of prime beef, chicken, pork with great sides and salads to choose from. We also understand that the desserts are homemade and very special. This was our first visit and we sampled yummy crabcakes, fried oysters, very tasty mussels and the best oysters during Happy Hour. All delicious and with excellent presentation. Our server, Mel, was first class as well and a great asset to this wonderful family-owned restaurant. The more casual atmosphere is welcome but don't let it fool you ... this restaurant is still high-end on the par with Eddie Vi's, Flemings and Ocean 44 to name a few. We look forward to enjoying the full menu options.
