The story
Bourbon Steak Scottsdale is part of the celebrated MINA Group portfolio — a collection of over 30 chef-driven concepts built by Michael Mina, the award-winning chef who trained at the Culinary Institute of America, spent formative years in Charlie Palmer's kitchen at Aureole, and earned James Beard recognition as both Rising Star Chef of the Year and Best Chef: California. That pedigree runs through every corner of this Scottsdale fine dining destination.
The Scottsdale location earned Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence — a recognition shared across the Bourbon Steak brand's strongest outposts nationwide. It reflects the MINA Group's stated commitment to wine programs that "perfectly complement world-class culinary experiences," and in Scottsdale that commitment is felt at the table. The award places Bourbon Steak among a small group of American steakhouses where the cellar is taken as seriously as the kitchen.
Michael Mina — born in Cairo, raised in Washington state — has cooked for three U.S. presidents, earned a Michelin star at his flagship, and been named one of the 50 Most Powerful People in American Fine Dining by Robb Report. His approach across all concepts centers on "exceptional cuisine, immersive atmospheres, and impeccable service," and Bourbon Steak Scottsdale carries that standard into the Arizona desert.
The restaurant is well suited to private events and larger celebrations, with catering and private dining capabilities that draw on the broader MINA Group infrastructure. For those who want a serious American steakhouse experience — with a wine list that has drawn national recognition — Bourbon Steak at 7575 E. Princess Drive delivers exactly that.
