Default best b-day party place in scottsdale?

Hello,

I want to throw a 40th for my brother in S'dale, but I live in San Francisco & don't know a place to party there.

Could anyone recommend a hip/cool/outrageous restaurant/bar/nitespot?

My brother is also a drummer - know of anyplace we could party with a band that'd let him sit in (Jazz/rock)?

Also, I heard there is literally a party train in northern AZ.



Any ideas?

Need to organize ASAP, party is end of month.

THANKS in advance for your help!

Sapporo is great for a restaurant. The teppan tables sit up to 10 people.

Thank you for this! I appreciate it. I also need ideas for a 40th - what to do.. (aside from strippers)...are there "events/party" places?

Cheers from San Francisco!

Maybe you can find something in the strip mall where Sapporo is located. I think there is a Sears and a Safeway.

Default party at gameworks, comedy club

Hi all,

I heard gameworks is fun: games (obvious) for all the guests to choose from, food, bar and a semi private space. Should appeal to the 10 year old in the 40 y.o. But is there any other recommendation out there for "event oriented" party place? Is there a rock n bowl (strobe lights/DJ bowling) or comedy club to visit?

I have looked into Sopporro and Barcelona too - maybe that will be for the family dinner the night before...

Also, has anyone heard of Cowboy Ciao?

THX!

Jillian's (which has recently been bought by Dave & Busters) There are a few - one in North Scottsdale (Desert Ridge) and I beleive there is one in Chandler - near I 10. Good Food games entertainment etc. Why not have the party at one of the casinos? The Casino Arizona on McKellips is much better, fantastic buffett, a showroom theatre with shows put on by Showstoppers (one of the best impersonators - you really think it is the real thing) not to mention all of the ususal casino things. Not for a Family Party - no kids. But the adults will have a blast.

I forgot to mention, there are Comedy Clubs, and also a Rock and Roll Bowling near Tempe (near ASU) Also a lot of the resorts have areas for parties. But I don't think that is what you are looking for.
There is a Benihana in Scottsdale - but that has been done to death.
There is always Cheesecake Facoty, and the others, but they are either boring or meet markets in the evenings.
In Scottsdale there is Eli's - it is an American Grille, but in the evenings has a live band and dancing - Very Loud. And LOTS of singles.
So far I still think you might like Jillians the best. for something different.
But I originally came from Dallas and love the Dave & Busters Concept.
If I think of more I will let you know.
When is this party going to be, it also can depend wether it is still snowbird season or not.
