Terrace area for a cocktail at sunset before dinner was lovely...great service and wonderful ambiance. Dinner table outside was also nice, thanks to the hostess for suggesting. Food was mixed. Sea bass and duck were ok, my risotto was very salty with far too much garlic. Waiter seemed to be in a very big hurry, scurrying around to the point of distraction. I would skip dinner and go for sunset on the patio!!

Our dining experience was superb! Everything was very tasty. The service and quality of the food were top notch. The view was lovely! We truly enjoyed our evening at Different Point of View. Highly recommend!
Best experience! We spent my wifes birthday there and first of all i required a valley view table which was accomplished by the servers. They have a rich wine menu selection and the food was outstanding. We highly recommend the salmon, perfectly cooked and seasoned! The service was above and beyond! Thank you!
Celebrated my wife's birthday here. Just moved to Arizona, first time at this restaurant. Absolutely amazing food, service and views! Would definitely recommend. They had a nice lounge area as well where we continued to hang out, enjoying the beautiful view and sunset.

Everything about this dinner was absolutely outstanding. Set up high on a big hill/mountain, you can for miles and miles. Our service was impeccable. The food was delish - I had the swordfish, my husband had the filet. Two thumbs way, way up!!

Overall a fantastic experience, and worth going for any special occasion. Our server was phenomenal. The food was fantastic, and the view was second to none in the Valley. The only negative from our experience was with a seating arrangement we requested. The lady that helped us initially was extremely rude and upset that we requested anything at all. But shortly after speaking with them, our main server for the night came up, and the contrast could not have been starker. Our server, was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the food, which made the whole night excellent. They helped us get what we needed for seating, and the experience for the whole night was superb. We plan to come back, and recommend this place.

We had a great server (Ian) so service was excellent. Food was good and restaurant and view was nice. I think we set our own expectations too high against other great restaurants in the valley with wonderful views (like The Santuary) so was just expecting something the same but overall worth a visit.

I really enjoyed my experience at Different Pointe of View. Everything about this place is perfect. Food. Service. Ambience, and of course, the view. It is wonderful when a place that is known for its ambience and view also has amazing food. It is the full package. I had the NY Strip. It was cooked to perfection (ordered rare+). Other people in my party had the Pork Tenderloin (excellent), the Scallops (excellent) and the Lamb Chop special (excellent). Two of us got the smoked Caesar salad which was the best Caesar that I have ever had away from my own home. We had the Iberico Pork Belly appetizer which was cooked perfectly and very yummy. Our server, Austin, was wonderful. Attentive, yet not pushy (at all). Everything was timed perfectly. He was fun and made for a wonderful dining experience. Views are great both inside and out. Do not hesitate to sit anywhere in the restaurant, all of the tables have a view. I will definitely go back, and definitely recommend it to all.

Nickolas was amazing. His table service was super. He was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients. The environment is truly one of a kind with the most breathtaking views. The food was cooked to perfection and well priced.

A beautiful view with mediocre food and service. I had the salmon and my husband had the filet. The salmon was cooked perfectly but the filet was overcooked when my husband ordered it MR. They did bring a new steak that was cooked properly. With so many better options in the valley, I would recommend a drink here to enjoy the views, but then head to dinner elsewhere as the price is not worth it here.
This is probably the best meal that I've had in the Phoenix area. Everything from the service, ambience, and food was outstanding. Service was attentive without being obtrusive. The ambience and view of the city at night were amazing. The food was excellent and in portions which were not too large. We had the pork tenderloin and the New York Strip, both of which were exquisitely prepared. At the end of our meal, our server provided two small chocolate treats to complete an excellent dining experience. The on-duty manager stopped to enquire as to our experience. I highly recommend this restaurant for a nice dinner or a special occasion.

One of our favorite spots to dine in Phoenix. Absolutely delicious and fresh menu everything from appetizers to dessert was amazing ! I loved the carrot agnolotti with tarragon. So delicious and creamy! My son had the steak it was also excellent. Service was top notch as well. The views are some of the best in the valley. Highly recommend.
I would recommend this place to anyone that really wants to enjoy and amazing evening with wonderful food. The view is impeccable and the experience is second to none amazing. Went here for my anniversary and it was definitely the right choice for the occasion

You can't beat this view and ambiance. We got engaged here 22 years ago. It was so lovely. I was a bit disappointed with the food. It was just okay. The steak was overcooked and not tender. I made my husband swap with me but his was no better. Everything else was fantastic. The server was delightful.
Great view and food was average, waiter refused to let us eat a birthday cake we brought because it was from the outside. Never told us until the very end this wasn't allowed and was very flippant about the situation and rude.
