Sexy Roman recently celebrated its first anniversary by introducing a new prix-fixe dinner menu showcasing the flavors and signature dishes of Italy. Nestled inside the W Hotel in central Scottsdale, the spacious restaurant offers a semi-formal setting with elegant, inviting decor and impeccable service.
The W Hotel is located within the Old Town Scottsdale Entertainment District. Sexy Roman offers an elegant and distinctive dining experience that can be both romantic and ideal for friends to enjoy an elevated dinner.
You’ll be welcomed with a spread of crispy breadsticks, lavosh with sesame seeds, and a tangy tomato jam to get your taste buds ready for the Sexy Roman culinary journey.
The Summer in Rome prix-fixe menu is available during dinner only and is $70 per person. Guests will discover a curated, multi-course Mediterranean culinary journey that boasts excellent recipes and flavor discoveries. Served family style, the specialized menu includes:
• Antipasti (select one, per guest): Roman-style meatballs, Italian chopped salad, burrata, six oysters or a shrimp cocktail.
• Secondi (select one): lumache alla vodka, bucatini, roasted salmon, burrata-stuffed tortellini, chicken Parmesan or chicken piccata. Or add an elevated selection of an 8 oz. filet mignon for $20 or a 20 oz. prime bone-in ribeye for $30.
The roasted salmon is a healthy and flavorful entree selection on the Sexy Roman summer prix-fixe menu.

W Hotel and Sexy Roman executive chef Thomas Castaneda has done an excellent job with presenting entrees and dishes that showcase Italian cuisine, with delicious twists and aesthetic presentations that can only be termed as “sexy.”
The aesthetic at Sexy Roman is akin to a warm and inviting living room with tasteful and whimsical art pieces mixed among the white linen-covered tables. In true Sexy Roman fashion, each booth and table has an accent light that, when the button is pushed, turns the light red and summons a custom martini service to the table. Whether you like classic, dry, fruity or espresso-style martinis, the personalized attention of the mixologist tending the martini cart is a fun addition to any meal. The “at-your-command” martini cart is an elevated touch that gives Sexy Roman an edge over other cocktail experiences in Old Town Scottsdale.
