Three Thirty Three

A-MAZING, food, service, ambience 5, 20, 100 stars! We did a pretty good collection of starters and small plates. First the entire dining room is amazing. Pro tip: ask to be seated to the left of the trees so you can see the whole screen. Austin was our server and he deserves a raise. He knows the menu so well and he's just a pleasure. We had:Whipped edamame, like nothing you have had, we ordered two.Wagu fried rice: MUST HAVE. Kinche fritters: You may not like kimchi. You may not like fritters, but for whatever reason this double negative cancels itself out and it's amazing. Pork belly wonton tacos: not my jam, there's a little too much going on, but if you like chimichuri it's very forward.Wagu meatballs: great! Very flavorful. Can't wait to go back!

Do I recommend this place? Hell yes, I do!333 is stunning--from the hip, upscale ambience to the live music that is absolutely on point. The massive 3D screens add an immersive touch, while the blossoming trees, aquarium in the waiting area, and sleek bar make the entire space feel top-notch and luxurious. The moment you pull up, the valet service and reservation-only policy make you feel like you're about to step into an exclusive celebrity hotspot.Now, let's talk prices--they are insanely high. They literally have a drink for $333 That said, the drinks I had were gorgeous, delicious, and expertly crafted--worth every sip.This is the kind of place you go to for a special occasion or a girls' night out. If you're looking for a quiet, intimate dinner, this is NOT your spot. But if you want to be dancing in your seat while you dine, soaking in the energy, and having an unforgettable time with friends, then 333 is the place to be.And let's not forget the live entertainment--a dancer gliding through the restaurant, a saxophonist strolling around, and an overall vibe that screams luxury and fun. It's a high-class, visually stunning experience, and I totally recommend everyone tries it at least once. Just make sure to show up in your best cocktail attire--because this place deserves nothing less!

Best restaurant in Phoenix!!!! Chef Sean prepared the food to PERFECTION. Preston recommended the perfect complementary flavors & drink pairings. Landis was by far the best server I've ever experienced & I used to train restaurant staff for a well known company. Landis & chef Sean accommodated my extensive food allergies and created phenomenally tasting dishes for me. The ambiance is an unparalleled magically immersive experience. The food has beautiful color pallets & presentation. The experience of the servers is impressive. The hostess staff greeted us & gave us water to drink while we waited for our table. The coconut dessert was refreshing & the chocolate sensation dessert was a combination of a variety of sensations... warranting the name. I suspect the comments about the food being "salty" are made by those who just ordered a side dish of garlic noodles or something, because none of us found the food to be salty & as close to perfect as possible! It is a very expensive experience, but one that will be memorable! Definitely a MUST EXPERIENCE at least once in your lifetime kind of place.

Date Night Perfection at Three Thirty Three!Such a great experience last night for our pre-Valentine's Day dinner--everything was a wow factor from start to finish! We dressed up to match the upscale ambiance, and it was absolutely worth it. The food was delicious, the service was exceptional, and the atmosphere was top-notch.Some highlights from our meal: Wagyu meatballs - packed with flavor Garlic noodles & Japanese fried chicken - juicy and absolutely delicious Cloudy sake & Purple Dragon cocktail - highly recommend!The restaurant offers valet parking for $8 or a nearby garage within walking distance. Conveniently located right off the freeway, making it easy to get to. If you're looking for an authentic Japanese dining experience outside of Japan, trust me--you won't be disappointed!Highly recommend for a classy date night, drinks, and small bites!#ThreeThirtyThree #DateNight #JapaneseCuisine #FineDining #TempeEats

I personally had a great dining experience. Yes, it is pricey but it presents itself as a sophisticated place so you know what to expect going into it. It is really no different from other trendy and nicer spots in the Valley in terms of pricing (for better or for worse). Not something I'd be able to afford regularly, but I enjoyed the experience and would go back for special occasions.I came with a few preconceived ideas that (1) service would be a bit snotty as it can be in these types of places - it was not at all. From the front desk to the wait staff, everyone was extremely friendly; (2) music would be loud - maybe I thought this because it has that cool DJ booth and again, these types of places tend to be a bit loud. I was pleasantly surprised that the music was not loud, and I could carry a conversation without having to scream. Making a reservation was easy. There is plenty of free parking in the parking structure nearby. Finding the place was a bit complicated, because of the lack of signage and the fact that my online maps kept sending me someplace else. If, like me, you get lost, look up Crumbl Cookies and walk towards N Scottsdale Rd, it's right around the corner from that. My table was ready for me on time, I did not have to wait at all. I'm a vegetarian and maybe an Asian steakhouse that also serves a lot of seafood is not the greatest place for me, but I left with a full and happy belly after ordering the garlic noodles and the kimchi fritters (which were just a tad bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise hit the spot). Obviously my experience in terms of taste with non-meat, non-fish food may not be a relevant indicator of food quality, and you can refer to other reviews for that, but just saying there are tasty options for vegetarians. The drinks were delicious, too. Again, if you're looking to dine on a budget, this is not the place. You could also simply grab a drink in the bar area, which is quite nice too.Loved the aesthetics, especially the ocean-themed ones. It really does make for such a nice dining atmosphere.

Three Thirty Three marks my 333rd review--talk about a lucky number! This upscale & luxurious restaurant in the Tempe Watermark district, built for $10 million over two years, is run by 2016 MasterChef champ Shaun O'Neil. (I have seen all their episodes so I was excited to hear about this!) And yes, that infamous LED screen? It's from the same group behind the Las Vegas Sphere. Their catchy motto, "You've never tasted Asian like this," is bold--let's see if this is true!I booked a table for Christmas dinner (this also includes my 5yo) and it did not disappoint! I should mention, we rarely go out for extravagant dinners. The doorman offered to snap a family photo as we strutted in wearing matching Christmas onesies--how could we refuse? I should mention there is a dress code, but they let us slide since it was Christmas. We marveled at the gorgeous interior and vibrant LED screen which made it seem like you were in an aquarium amongst tropical fish. There was a live DJ playing catchy EDM, a live sax player belting along to the music while galavanting around the room and a dancer performing with beautifully lit up wings. It gave Toca Madera vibes. We were seated in these luxurious soft seats. The service was absolutely phenomenal with the utmost kindness and hospitality. Our server Antoinette navigated our entire dining experience with grace and attentiveness. Two managers also came along to introduce themselves and ensuring we were comfortable.Now, let's talk food! They kicked things off with complimentary Rosé--cheers to that! ---Exceptional items:*Whipped Edamame: Imagine hummus's sophisticated cousin - but make it Asian-fusion. Creamy edamame meets crispy shrimp chips in a gastronomic dance. Their 333 inscription is also a nice touch! *Lobster & Truffle Miso Carbonara: This was delicious with well-executed flavor profiles and we had a server come by shaving fresh black truffle over the dish. You'd have to be a truffle and lobster enthusiast b/c the dish was $120.---Solidly, well prepared items included:*Robotyaki Wagyu Filet Mignon & Wagyu fried rice: The highly rated wagyu comes from Snake River Farms. $48 is a lot for each of these food items, so you'd really have to be a meat enthusiast to appreciate its quality.*333 beach dessert: This was a whimsical optical illusion dessert with coconut creme encased with a chocolate shell making it look like a real coconut slice. It was garnished with a playful crumble with slices of fruit and creme a-topped with garnish appearing to look like mini tropical islands. It was delicious, but I was impressed with the originality.*Fall of the Flying Lotus mock-tail: This was a fruity refresher for my 5yo, which he loved, tasty and bubbly with a dragonfruit slice.---Room for improvement items included:*Salmon Fire: I was underwhelmed with the thick ponzu sauce, which drowned the the flavors of the delicate salmon sashimi. I would've preferred a crudo type preparation with a much lighter sauce or broth, perhaps with a hint of citrus. *Thai coconut corn: This side was aggressively sour, I couldn't finish it after 2 bites. Adding some more texture like light tempura flakes or bread crumbs could enhance the experience, almost like an asian fusion elote.*Crazy rich asian fries: With a name like that with a price point of $20, I expected something extraordinary. The thin cut fries tasted like they were prepared from frozen and they had a small container with truffle aioli, to which I could barely taste the truffle. Maybe they could use thicker freshly prepared fries with a more apparent taste of truffle. *Side of white rice: This was for my kiddo, it was pretty stale and cold. I know this can be easily improved.All in all, we had a wonderful Christmas dinner experience! Since they are so new to the scene, they are probably working on perfecting their dishes and working out various kinks. We would come back if we had visitors in town willing to drop some serious money for a unique fine dinning experience. Cheers!

We made reservations online, and the only options were 5:00 PM or 5:30 PM. Naturally, we assumed the place must be packed all night and booked the 5:00 slot, thinking we'd be lucky to snag a table. Fast forward to our arrival: the restaurant was completely empty. Not a soul at the bar, maybe a handful of tables filled by 6:30 in main seating area. Why the credit card on file, guys? The place isn't that exclusive, and this policy just deters guests from booking.On entry, the vibe was undeniably impressive: a Vegas-like setup with velvet seating, a DJ, and a rotating image screen. It was all very "wow" at first glance. But unfortunately, the wow stopped at the decor.The drinks and food? Not it. An espresso martini for $27? Let's be real--you're not in Scottsdale. The food followed the same theme: basic, overpriced, and not remotely Asian-inspired. The standout dish of the night? The lemon chicken. Yes, the lemon chicken. Everything else was forgettable at best. Scallops, cold. Filet, over-drenched with sauce. Noodles, better at home. Cauliflower, soggy. To top it off, the service felt rushed despite the fact that the place was a ghost town. If you're going to drop this kind of money, go somewhere that knows how to deliver quality food and drinks. For me, this was a one-and-done.

I saw this place all over social media for their grand opening and so excited to finally try their food! Long story short, I think you're definitely paying for ambience. We ordered the Black Cod dish and it was delicious with fried ginger strips and mushrooms to compliment the flavors. The portion was the smallest I've ever seen at a fancy place. The Hamachi Crudo was good but not great. The yellowtail cut was on the thicker side and I just didn't like it with the baby tomatoes they sliced in half. The Pork Belly Tacos were so yummy! Crunchy on the outside with deliciously cooked pork belly! Only thing was it came as two tacos and was as tiny as the length of your finger. Cauliflower side we ordered was quite good and I liked the sauce it came with. The space was beautiful and there's a bar spot in the back to the left when you walk in. Service was attentive and fast!

The atmosphere is fantastic, but it is on the pricier side. The food is delicious, though the portions are a bit small. The service is quick and attentive, with the waiter frequently checking in. The restaurant is spacious and can easily accommodate a large number of guests at once. Plus, the valet parking on the side makes it super convenient to park and head straight into the restaurant.

Made reservations for 4 people here before they even actually opened and visited on the evening of Dec 22nd at 6pm. Parking is easy. They have complimentary valet or you can park in the garage. The interior is stunning! You can tell they definitely invested a lot into the place (interior, service & entertainment). I love the ambiance and vibes. Definitely my kinda place and my kinda music! Love all the songs the dj played!We were seated right by the dj booth and had a pretty good view of the whole restaurant. Kat was our server and Daniel helped out as well. They were wonderful! Kat was attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable of both the drink & food menu. Every staff member here is friendly!Table Order: Two Pitchers Nordic Jam $12Two Pitchers Baseline $12The Purple Dragon $25Whipped Edamame $18Kimchi Fritters $18Hamachi Shisho Agua Chile $28Oysters $48Tom Kha Prawns $40Coal Roasted Lemongrass Ckn $58Wagyu Dragon Beef $68Garlic Noodles $26Spicy Noodles $28Wok Tossed Green Beans $15Thai Coconut Creamed Corn $15Assorted Mushrooms $22Complimentary Bday Dessert x2 Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5Ambiance: 5/5Love that you can choose sparkling water at no extra charge here. Almost everything was good! The oysters were a tad fishy to me and the Tom Kha Prawns were meh. Would skip these next time. Total came out to $468.07. I was estimating more. Price is definitely higher here than other upscale restaurants. Many items were way overpriced for the portion size you get. You're basically paying for the interior and entertainment. Overall, I had a great experience and wouldn't mind coming back for special occasions once in a while.
