One of our favorite Mexican restaurants in the Valley. If you happen to be coming from the airport (10 min. or so from Sky Harbor), do not pass up the opportunity to dine at La Santisima. Hands down the best salsa bar, but all of the food here is extraordinary and unique. http://lasantisimagourmet.com/

From their website:
The legacy continues… Handlebar J, "Scottsdale's Original Rib House" is still known for our Bar-B-Q Ribs, Steaks, Burgers, Fish Fry, Corn on the Cob, Fried Chicken, Biscuits with honey and so much more, all made in house.
Besides our good food, country music is a huge part of HBJ. But don't be surprised if you hear various other styles of music from time to time, like blues, jazz or rock-n-roll. (Schedules are subject to change, so please call for information, or check our online calendar for information).
