‘Vintage Valley’: Handlebar J

More from this show

This saloon opened in the 1960s, back when people could ride up to this restaurant on horseback. While the surrounding North Scottsdale neighborhood has become more upscale, things have stayed pretty much the same inside this old western saloon and steakhouse.

Hear the story about the family that has ran this restaurant for decades and the music that makes this a destination for many celebrities and professional athletes when they come to town.

See more from season two of “Plate & Pour.”
