Fine-dining Anhelo opens in new home in Old Town Scottdale

🍽️ Anhelo, chef and owner Ivan Jacobo’s well-regarded fine-dining restaurant in downtown Phoenix, has moved into its new home in Old Town Scottsdale.

It’s located on the southeast corner of Goldwater and First Avenue between America’s Taco Shop and Arcadia Farms Cafe.

Anhelo’s original Phoenix space at the Orpheum Lofts on the northwest corner of First Avenue and Adams now is home to a sibling concept, Flour & Thyme, that opened in December.

The new 2,300-square-foot Scottsdale space features a dining room, a private dining room, a bar, and wine room. There’s also a charming brick patio surrounded by greenery.

The menu remains the same – that is, every-changing based on the season, ingredient availability, and Jacobo’s whims – mostly in the form of five-, nine- and 11-course tastings.

Beware: The dining room and bar only seat 38 diners inside, so reservations are recommended.
