“Superb food and great service in a lovely historic house”

Coup des Tartes

1/1 found this review helpful

The menu is eclectic and obviously well thought out. Our server told us the menu changes every two months or so and they try to use local/organic/natural products…which I love! It being BYOB is a plus for me too!

The staff was not only friendly and informative, but also really fun and definitely enhanced our experience. Some are real characters!

The décor in the house is quaint and stylish- I wish my house looked like that.

Coup des Tartes was perfect for our special occasion dinner and I recommend it highly. The have a larger room next door for large groups that I’d love to try for a work or family party.

“Absolutely superb!!”

If you are in Phoenix, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy this superb restaurant!
This is a quaint restaurant with only about 9 tables in the main dining area. Many promise and few restaurants deliver a great meal. This restaurant delivers with a style and grace missing from far too many restaurants nowadays.
Food is simply spectacular. I had the Roquefort Salad, listed as "Our divine combination of organic greens, roasted apples, warm toasted hazelnuts, dried figs and Premier Cru Roquefort." A great combination of temperature, texture and flavor. I can easily see why this is their signature salad.
For entree I had the Lamb Shank, listed as "100% natural grass fed Australian lamb coated in warm spices and served Moroccan style atop couscous with a harissa spiced vegetable ragout studded with dried fruits." Good portion size and a scintillating combination of flavors. I can see again why this is their house specialty!
Dessert was a delicate shortbread base, topped with a raspberry and chocolate layer. Simple, fresh and very flavorful.

Service is prompt and attentive, without being overly anxious.
I thoroughly enjoyed my meal at this delightful restaurant, where dining and relaxing is a welcome focus for the service team there.
Car pool if you are going there with a group of people, as parking is limited.
Due to the limited number of tables, I would suggest that you call ahead for seating, to make sure you will get a table.
This restaurant is also a BYOB restaurant. Current prices are $9 per 750ml bottle.

“Romantic with good food”

Coup des Tartes

Jul 20, 2008

This little restaurant is a gem within Phoenix. The food is good, not the best you have ever had, but definitely worth the price. You can't leave without trying the Brie with carmalized apples! Very yummy. I didn't care for the brulee which was served cold and had very little crust on top, but the chocolate cheese cake was superb.
We liked the BYOB aspect since we collect wines at home.
We were seated in the back room which was perfect until the table of 4 was seated next to us. They should take out the table for four and just make it all tables for two because it gets too noisy, especially in a little room and after the party has a glass of wine or two. Next time I will just eat in the main dining room.
I also think they should dim the lights at night to give it more ambience. Again there was more ambience in the main dining room. It was just too bright in the back room.
I had the lobster which was pretty good, a little overcooked in my opinion.
My husband had the filet mignon which he says was excellent.
The service was superb and our waitstaff attentive.
I would go back again for a romantic dinner, but will request the main dining room next time.

Great restaurant, but the noise level can get a bit out of hand.
