COURSE Restaurant was honored to be featured by Fabulous Arizona in its guide to New Year’s Eve dining in Arizona, highlighting memorable culinary experiences across Scottsdale, Phoenix, the East Valley, and beyond.
Among the Scottsdale restaurants selected for the 2025 celebration, COURSE was recognized for an exclusive 10-course New Year’s Eve tasting experience created by Executive Chef Cory Oppold.
Designed as a celebratory close to the year, the evening began with a welcome glass of Champagne before taking guests through a progression of seasonal dishes showcasing luxury ingredients, thoughtful technique, and the creativity that defines the COURSE dining experience.
Fabulous Arizona highlighted several dishes from the menu, including Kaluga caviar with aerated potato and dill, avocado and hiramasa tartare with citrus and chile, mushroom and foie gras soup with house-made brioche, Chilean seabass wrapped in lobster mousse, and K4 Copper State Reserve beef tenderloin.
Guests were also able to personalize the experience with enhancements including fresh truffles, Wagyu upgrades, and curated wine pairings, with both sommelier and reserve pairing options available throughout the evening.
While the menu was created exclusively for New Year’s Eve, the experience reflected the philosophy Chef Cory and the COURSE team bring to every tasting menu: allowing seasonality, technique, creativity, and hospitality to come together to create an evening that feels distinctly its own.
We’re grateful to Fabulous Arizona for including COURSE among its recommended destinations for celebrating New Year’s Eve in Scottsdale and for continuing to spotlight Arizona’s evolving culinary scene.
