Bartender/Mixologist

About us: Scottsdale, Ariz.

The owners behind two of Scottsdale’s hottest restaurants, The

Americano and Cala are joining forces to open Tell Your Friends, a swanky new underground cocktail and live music lounge in north Scottsdale that will open Spring 2024 (Late April)

Accessed through a side door at The Americano, guests of Tell Your Friends will enter a dimly lit vestibule enhanced by dramatic floral wall-coverings and a black-tile accented staircase that leads to the intimate lounge. Upon the descent, the space begins to come to life as the venue reveals itself with rich maroon velvet drapes, mirrored walls and fanciful lighting. As the curtains are drawn, the focal point emerges – a captivating bar adorned with floor-to-ceiling lights that seamlessly trace their way across the ceiling, creating a dazzling connection to the adjacent stage. The lounge will host nightly performances featuring talented vocalists, musical acts and entertainers who will be inspired by classic sounds while performing anything but the ordinary.

The cocktail-driven menu will feature a seasonal rotation of classic and craft cocktails, an exceptional wine list and small bites. For guests who can’t resist the allure of the acclaimed pasta, steak and seafood offered upstairs at The Americano, special arrangements can be made to satisfy most cravings.
