I had it on my list, but it's not in an area I usually go to. It's tucked away in commercial/ industry area around other businesses. Pretty well hidden. You would have to know its location to drive back there. Once you drive into the parking lot, you see all the trees and the white brick building. The interior and outdoor patio is a beautiful space and we opted to sit out there during some nice weather. For a Tuesday night it was surprisingly full, we had a reservation for 6:30 pm and were sat right on time. The service of everyone we interacted with was great. Our server was friendly and did a great job explaining the menu and making suggestions. We ended up splitting a few dishes- the burrata appetizer, octopus picatta piccante, scallop spaghetti, and roasted airline chicken breast with risotto. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The cocktails were also well balanced and very enjoyable. All in all, glad we ventured out to that area of Mesa to enjoy a lovely dinner!

After our massage, we noticed this restaurant just a few doors down and decided to give it a try…read more We were hungry and ready to eat. The waitress was friendly and helpful, which set a good tone for the meal. My wife ordered the Mediterranean Ceviche. As a native Peruvian, I tend to be quite particular when it comes to ceviche. That said, my wife--who usually eats very lightly--surprisingly ate most of the dish, so it's safe to say she really enjoyed it. I ordered the grilled chicken baguette, which unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. It lacked flavor, and while the bread looked like a baguette, it didn't taste like an authentic one. They were out of the potato salad that usually accompanies the dish but offered fries instead--and I have to say, the fries were outstanding. The décor is simple, and the space appears clean and well maintained. They also have a large patio area, which might be nice during cooler months, but it's definitely not ideal in the heat of summer. All the dishes were nicely presented, which added a touch of polish to the overall experience.

Wow I didn't realize how old my last review was. I've checked in here on Yelp over 50 times, and…read moreprobably have eaten here twice that many times. It's close to home and the perfect place for dinner with family of friends. Great service and wine selection. Happy hour prices are outstanding and include a discount on the whole list of wines by the glass if you're not up for the house wine. I agree with the previous reviewer that it needs a refresh and the artwork could use updating but it's our Cheers and we love it.

I ordered the seafood Risotto. It had scallops, shrimp, and mussels It was tossed with creamy tomato Risotto. It was a dinner special. One negative is if you want a salad it's $6 extra. Plus it would have been nice to have bread. The table water had a cucumber in the water which touch. When the room filled up it was a little loud.

The beef stroganoff with a dark beer gravy on it.... to die for. The Tuscan chicken was very good as well, huge chunks of garlic in it (which we like) and largely portioned. Even the kids fish and chips was pretty big and tasty. The garlic bread wasn't too bad either, but personally not my favorite. I think it needed more cheese for me. Not a huge brunch menu which is why we initially had come, but will definitely be back for more lunch/dinner. Service was quick and friendly, and the price was slightly above average (~$20 for the beef stroganoff). But they give you a lot which is always nice.

I want to give 5 stars for the amazing dinner experience at Filthy Animal. I've been a few times…read morenow, and the food and service during dinner have always been incredible. The oysters are a must, the steak is cooked perfectly, and everything is plated so thoughtfully it really feels like a full experience, not just a meal. The dinner staff has also always been attentive, friendly, and on point. That said, I recently came in for brunch and had a very different experience. I'm a huge pancake person, so I was excited to try the strawberry pancakes, but they were honestly disappointing. They were soggy, lacked any fluff, and had more of a cornbread texture than a pancake. The strawberry topping also wasn't very appetizing--it seemed like it was meant to be more of a sauce, but it didn't quite work. I completely understand that higher-end restaurants like to get creative with their dishes, but I think some basics like pancakes should still be done really well. I'll definitely be back for dinner, but I'd probably skip brunch next time.

Inside is truly unique blend of African safari, Aussie chefs complete with hats wood grilling tomahawks and tons of meat right in the middle of the restaurant. Decor is again rather unique with a mix of wood, soft furnishings, drapes, brass and stuffed exotic animals (which im sure are clever fakes) Josh at the bar was awesome, not just for me but extremely attentive and quick at delivery. Remembered drink preferences, even an unusual order i made which he delivered perfectly after serving 2 others who joined me. Everyone behind the bar kept my water topped up and the bar free of soiled napkins and empty glasses. Prices were extremely reasonable. Few drafts on tap and am extensive bar and cocktail selection. Definitely going to return back to enjoy the food, smelled wonderful.

Now that's a very ODD policy. Some people had 2 or 3 drinks, some had none. Some had just a salad, some had a full meal. How in the world do you split a bill fairly when our dinners/drinks were all so different. This policy of only taking 4 credit cards for a larger party left us with a bit of a bad impression of Hidden House. Could a manager please look into this?

I tried the chicken risotto- absolutely delicious! I've tried many risottos at different restaurants and they never quite have the right texture balance. The chefs here have nailed it! The risotto is nice and creamy, but not TOO creamy. I loved it. In addition, the seasoning on the chicken was perfect, truly the entire dish was perfect. Service: Also amazing! Our server, Abby, was great. Very attentive and accommodating. The hostess, Bella, was also very helpful and talkative, she recommended the chicken risotto for me! I also saw the other teammates working hard on the floor, always checking in on their coworkers and helping each other out. It's a very kind and social environment! Cork & Craft is definitely a place I'd recommend. I plan on coming back!

If you like an Old Fashioned, they have the best one I have ever had. $18 but amazing! It was a beautiful evening and the doors & windows were open so all could enjoy it! We shared three different items and we both enjoyed them all. My complaint is the table and chairs. Both were leaning about 1-1/2" so we had to put our weight on them to level them. Also the chairs we were on had a weird slope that makes you slide out of them. Fix these and easily a 5 star rating.

We located this Location based on one of my YELP friends that I've been following for years as she really loves Aftermath. On this occasion, we were lucky enough that they had live music. The musician was fantastic and just really talented. We ended up sitting in a nice cozy booth where we could stretch out and feel comfortable and relax. For drink drinks we ordered the old-fashioned and also the big easy. We both enjoyed our drinks and moved on to ordering Andre's. My husband ordered the aftermath burger and I ordered the meatloaf. All in all, we were really happy with our selections and actually ended up getting a second round of cocktails as they were really delicious. For this round of transition to the Cabernet red wine, which is Dauo Wines and it was really tasty. We'll definitely be back, hope that this musician continues to play live music. The drink or music on Sunday night, really made it a fun date night experience.

I had this place on my list of must try burgers…read more WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!! We ordered the wings and two burgers. When I ordered my burger, I asked for bacon and the egg, and my friend said to the waitress " make it two". Burgers came out after about 20 minutes. I asked about the wings and she had forgot to add them, so I asked her if she could still put them in and bring them out. My burger had no bacon and no egg, my friend's burger had egg, but no bacon. Fries were fried to a dark brown crisp!!! Halfway into the burger she finally came around, I mentioned that it was missing the items. She went to the kitchen and sent the manager to come to our table and see what the problem was, I simply explained that it was missing the items we added and still had no wings he said he would be right back. He came back with the check and said to us "I apologize for the issues, here is your check I only charged you for the burgers". Well geez man, thanks for not charging me for the wings that I asked for 3 times and still never received.... How kind of you sir. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME TRYING OUT THIS PLACE IT WILL DISAPPOINT

Lightly dressed, with tasty salami, bits of almonds and a few grape tomatoes. The octopus was really amazing. The spicy nduja (sp?) really gave the dish some depth of flavor, the crispy baby potatoes were perfectly cooked and crispy on the edges, the romesco sauce was flavorful and the few dollops of lemon curd were a nice counterbalance to all of the salty and rich elements. Best of all the octopus was very tender and moist. Service was very professional at the bar by several bar tenders. We sat at the bar so we could get some of the inside cool air as it was very hot and they only had outdoor tables when we made our reservation. We will return to try more dishes. It is very pricey yet so far everything we tried was worth it.

Unfortunately, this was a disappointment for both my wife and me on several fronts…read more Starting with the positives: the interior has a nice modern/industrial look. The outside patio also seemed to have a great vibe. The piatta di pane was also very good, fluffy and well-seasoned. The octopus was tasty as well. Now for the negatives. The prices, especially considering the portion sizes. As I mentioned, the octopus was good, but the portion could have been more generous. The price tag on the prime NY strip was also steep for what ended up being two small strips that didn't look close to a full 12 oz portion. The middle piece shown in my picture was actually the potato croccante. My wife ordered the seasonal market fish (halibut), which unfortunately was overcooked and dry. I don't mind paying for a great meal, but when the negatives outweigh the positives, it becomes an issue.
