I'm really not sure how this restaurant gets such accolades for the food. I would say it should not be missed for the unique atmosphere, however as an ex-Texan and mex/tex-mex afficianado, I found the food sub-standard with the exception of the salsa. Service is standard, nothing exceptional. Nice location, central to museum, shops and other restaurants. Overall - overrated, over-priced but worth a first time.

My first Arizona Mex meal, and still one of my favorites, cetainly nostalgic. Friends had raved about Los Olivos for years...when I finally got there I knew what they were talking about. Old school, down home Mex done right, and the setting is lovely.

Los Olivos is a Scottsdale institution, one of the last restaurants in Old Town that dates to the days when cowboys tied up their horses on Main Street. Although the food is just standard Mexican fare, the building is a fascinating work of folk-art construction. The entrance is a bit like a cement cave, with strange figures rising up from the roof. Amazingly, this throwback to slower times is only steps away from the new Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art. The tortillas are made fresh on the premises. On Friday and Saturday nights, there's Latin dancing from 9pm until 1am.

Great food, salsa, and margaritas. If it was not a 13 hour drive, I would go more often.

sky light opens up at night. live band on weekends. chile rellenos are out of this world. covered parking. this is a real classy place and very affordable. when theres a band dont get a table near the dance floor or your taco may do the macarena!
