Old Town Scottsdale is well known for its award-winning culinary offerings and diverse local cuisine. A delightful gem among these restaurants is The House Brasserie, a local favorite offering modern American fare that is crafted with exquisite artistry and elegance. But if you take a deeper dive into the restaurant’s history, you’ll discover that The House Brasserie, located on one of the most historic blocks in Old Town Scottsdale, is so much more than meets the eye.

Soak in the sun's warmth as you dine in The House Brasserie's cozy outdoor patio seating area. Even on a chilly day, a seat next to the wood-burning fireplace will keep you plenty warm for the duration of your dining experience as birds sing happily nearby and the breeze blows softly through the trees.

This rustic and inviting outdoor seating area creates a perfect atmosphere for a Sunday brunch with friends or a warm summer date night out for dinner and drinks. From the moment you first arrive, you’ll feel right at home with friendly and attentive service. But what's more, the exterior of the restaurant is still the original construction dating back to 1939 when it was first built by the Mowry family. They lived in the house until they passed, but their legacy continues to live on through the personal touches left behind, including Mrs. Mowry's famous rose bushes. The House Brasserie is truly a historic gem as one of the oldest residences-turned-restaurants of Old Town Scottsdale.
If you're looking for a more intimate fine dining experience or perhaps some relief from the summer heat, the Victorian-themed interior offers quite a refined and romantic atmosphere.

You'll be pleasantly surprised by the extensive selection of reds, whites, blends, bubbles, and so much more.

This steak is as delectable as the image suggests as it is first cooked to your desired warmth with care and perfection. Then, the master chef works their magic as they sprinkle on the perfect blend of ingredients to accentuate the flavors of the steak using elote (a flavorful grilled Mexican corn), vibrant shishito chimichurri, and sprinklers of cotija cheese. Grilled broccolini makes for the perfect side pairing, and your taste buds will be in absolute heaven from the very first bite.
