My wife and I visited Orange Sky for our 8th wedding anniversary. The space is nice and clean, and the views were very good. Our server was fantastic and all the staff was very attentive to us throughout the evening. The chairs were a little beat up looking but I could never decide if that was intentional or not. I will also know better and ask for a private booth. The food was underwhelming at best. We started with the Artisanal Cheeses which was pleasant and what I would consider standard fare. My wife ordered the salmon with the crab on the side, and I chose the Wagyu striploin. For our sides we had the asparagus, and the Crushed potatoes which were both very good. My wifes salmon was cooked well and was very pretty. From a taste stand point it was Ok but nothing to write home about. The crab was well cooked and tasted great. The steak was such a disappointment. When you see Wagyu you expect a certain quality and experience. The steak was cooked very unevenly, there was a fairly significant chunk of fat or gristle that I was forced to spit out, and the flavor just didnt live up to the hype. Maybe I built the steak up too much in my mind which led to my disappointment but it was definitely not what I was expecting. In closing, good views, good environment, great service, ok food. The experience fell short for us.

Bottom line, its good, but not good enough for the price. Im not opposed to occasionally spending much more than usual for outstanding cuisine and experience, this just missed the mark. Building faces west northwest, so youre not actually true west to see the sunset completely, person sitting to the right in the loveseat booths has a better view. The lights from the Topgolf driving range are fairly bright and definitely detract from the view. Having to walk through a smoke smelling casino is meh, no thanks. Service was good, we enjoyed the patio a bit after our appetizer and before dinner, never rushed. The food was good as well, but in the $35 to $55 (and up to $70 IIRC) main course range (no side), you can get amazing food here in greater Phoenix. This just wasnt amazing, my taste buds were not wowed. Wine list appeared solid, had a nice grenache/syrah blend, craft beer pretty much non existent (boo). Roasted carrot side slightly under cooked, gnocchi were just strange. King crab good, but suggest getting sauce on side. Lamb needed more salt and pepper before cooking. No sound break between the loveseat booths other than a thin curtain means you can hear the conversation to either side quite clearly as it bounces off the windows.

Great date night. Wonderful service, food and atmosphere. Not a cheap place, must have reservations and some tables have minimums. You can sit at the bar and eat but that does not have the same vibe as the restaurant though. Beautiful views all around the restaurant! We love the cheese board appetizer! The bourbon soaked cherries that come on it are great! I cant find them anywhere else! I suggest a steak, the swordfish was a little dry (it is Arizona after all...)

Fifteen floors above the Talking Stick Resort and Casion, the view is the main seller here. Great service food is A la cart. Salads too small to split, sided is side dishes are just enough to split. Great wine selections. Romantic seating with spacious table settings with fireplace. Patio setting option.

The private booth was beautiful and the equality of food was great. But the service was not very good was seated after people who had reservations after us and showed up after us. Staff hardly checked on us and I had to ask them to feel my waters up after no showed for 20.

View was amazing but the waiters are dumb and give you an attitude for their mistake on your order will never come again i had to deal with the manager twice here because the waiter was arguing with me will never come here again

Excellent service. Food is good, but a little overpriced for what you get. Enviance is very nice. Some of it hints at the 70s. Very relaxing and a little retro.

Very beautiful, and a view to die for. Excellent food. Expensive though, entrees around $40 and have no sides, potatoes and veg sold separately. Over priced.

No one answers the phone for a reservation, I called no less than 5 times!. Party of 8 going elsewhere. They must not need the revenue.

Great menu here. Amazing views. Try to reserve a private table if possible. The bar has great drinks and live music.

Food was amazing like the view. View was incredible. A date night place or just a must see for out of towners.

James Carlson

No one answer phones for questions/reservations...no prices on their menu...whats up with that?

Excellent food and service. One of, if not the best views of the Phoenix valley.

Fantastic food, service and a view you will not find anywhere in AZ.
