Hello neighbor, I just moved to Scottsdale from the downtown Fort Lauderdale / Las Olas area. 🙂
Boathouse is very good; if you like mussels, theirs are some of the best that I have had. They have a great happy hour at the bar from 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm as well.
If you are into Happy Hours ...
El Camino has a daily HH from 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm. $5 margaritas and $3 tacos (at the bar). It gets incredibly noisy, so I sit at the side bar seats on the alley (towards the back parking lot).
Louie Bossi has a daily HH from 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm (at the bar). $2 off all drinks and 1/2 off all pizza. On Wednesday nights, it is 1/2 off bottles of wine (under $100) with purchase of an entree.
Rivertail has HH Monday - Friday from 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm / 7:00 pm. Beer and wine specials and $0.99 oysters.
Eddie V has HH Monday - Thursday from 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm (at the bar and bar tops). Nice cocktail specials and really good food options.
Tacocraft (not on Las Olas) has Taco Tuesday specials: $8 margaritas and $4 tacos. All other days, their HH is good too.
After dinner, head over to Vinos Wine Bar. The wine bar itself is nice, and there is a cozy speakeasy towards the back exit, through a side door.
