greasewoods flats ,scottsdale
 
I read about this restaurant in a few sites and it sounds fun. Is it an appropriate place for dinner for me (mom) and my 13 yr old daughter? we will be staying at the 4 seasons, which I believe is close.
any other more casual/ fun suggestions if this is not a good one? we do not want to drive far, and do not need a fussy place.
thanks

nearby is Pinnacle Peak Patio, the oldest cowboy steak place in Scottsdale. I think Reata Pass restaurant is also open. It is very near Greasewood.

Greasewood is perfect for your situation. Friday and Saturday nights could be a little raucous for a 13 year old, but kids are allowed with a parent. This is one of my all time faves for tourists.

Pinnacle Peak Patio is pretty touristy, but I guess you are tourists, after all! Reata Pass is fun too.

Its a fun place but please be prepared. I am not sure what you read about it..but here is my impression....Its mostly a biker bar, with a mix of tourists. Burgers and fries are pretty much the only thing on the menu and the bathrooms are pretty nasty....That being said - there is usually a good musician/band playing and on colder nights a big campfire going. There are picnic tables set up all around and its a neat place to sit and chat with people you dont know...

We are grandparents. Our son and family have taken us to Greasewood along with their young children a few times. We enjoyed it and will go again next time we visit them in Cave Creek. The crowd did not seem rough at all.

bikers? yeah, maybe doctors and lawyers on 30k harley Davidsons, but real bikers, i think NOT!
