The stew is so…read moreflavorful especially with the fresh cilantro, onions, and lime they provide for you to add to your taste. The chunks of meat are generous and I've never bit into anything wierd (that's a deal breaker for me) and the broth is nice and thick. I'll rip a chunk of the perfectly fried, but not too greasy bread and dunk it into that fabulous broth and it emerges perfectly coated, getting soaked up by the little fried crunchies. And don't worry about it ever being soggy, you'll never leave it on your plate long enough for that to happen. Once you taste that first bite you won't talk to your friends, or check in on your phone, or even wipe up your kids spills until every morsel has been consumed. I'm telling you this dish will change your life. Just don't be thwarted by the jerk outside selling jewelry. He's unpleasant and obnoxious, and he has a nasty mouth. But I suppose he is like the gatekeeper and if you can get past him you will be given the keys to the kingdom!

I was in Fountain Hills for a work event and the food scene was pretty uninspiring. I knew I needed…read moreat least one good meal before heading home. I did some research and found Fry Bread House on the way to the airport, a James Beard award winning restaurant, and it did not disappoint. I got the Birria taco with the dipping sauce and it was amazing. The meat was tender with a generous amount, topped with cheese and onions. The sauce was the star. I could only eat half and took the rest with me. It didn't travel as well but it still tasted good. If you are in the Phoenix area, make a stop here. They also have parking in the back which makes it easy.

I come nearly every Thursday, 3 pm for the practical, mystical, historical hysterical Sip and Chat. A group founded by Lal Fernando. So excellent people still show up because Lal is visited by the slings and arrows of outrageous aging. The food here is favored by many. I participate mostly in bread. pastry and dog biscuits

OMG! So we seen…read morethis place on a segment on Channel 3 (We call it the Arizona Channel) and being a huge fan of breakfast, burritos and hatch chilies, I had to try it. We went the same day, arrived to discover there was an accident that took out the stoplight and hit the owners car. Even with that going on, she welcomed us and we ordered a couple of burritos while taking not of all of the fresh pastries and other goodness. We ordered one beef and green chile and a Sausage breakfast burrito. They make their own sausage for these from a recipe that has been in the family for over 100 years, and I highly recommend it. Both were exceptional and they are huge and do not skimp on the meat. After those we could not pass up grabbing some of the Maple Peach bread pudding and an Apple Danish. The Apple Danish was outstanding, cannot speak to the bread pudding as that disappeared before I was able to try it. This place is awesome, great food, great staff, great atmosphere, and we will be adding this to our breakfast rotation for sure. I need to return to try the burgers, and I'm certain they will not disappoint. If you are in the area, this is the place you need to try for sure.

The smash burgers are perfectly seasoned and cooked!!! And the shakes, well....PERIODT!!!! The shakes are just plain heavenly!!! The restaurant is super clean with a buzzy happy uplifting vibe, and the smells coming from the kitchen intoxicating. Now, I will share this. Leslie the General Manager runs a great crew here! The service is top-notch and friendly. Leslie holds her crew to high standards, and it shows. This location is ranked #20 in the enterprise of over 300 locations. That speaks volumes. That quality shows. I highly recommend you giving this cool burger joint a shot, you won't be disappointed. Make sure to say hi to Leslie, and tell her Peter sent ya!!!! Sorry no pictures on this review. I didn't have time to think once my burger was delivered to my table!! Ha ha ha!!! Grade: A+++++++++

Waiting doesn't take long as everyone seems to work quick and efficiently to get you your yummy food. Food is fresh and ingredients all seem to be super good quality as everything has the crunch, crisp, juicy textures you look forward to when getting fried fish layered up with toppings and more! Everything is so flavorful too and the extra sauces you can get on the side really top it off. The frozen lemonades are amazing and the flavor combos they have are creative and blend nicely. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a good spot to get fish tacos!

We love Culver's! Since we're can't get it in CA, we always try to fit it in if we can…read more We went through the drive thru on a Friday night around 7pm. It was decently busy, but the line went pretty quick. We ordered the butter burger with cheese curds and a hot fudge malt, a sourdough met with onion rings and a peanut butter malt. We also got a side of caramel to dip the cheese curds in (if you know, you know!) and a side of cheese sauce to dunk the butter burger in. Everything was soooo good. The cheese curds with caramel are so bomb. We can't get enough of Culver's!

It had been quite a while since I had ordered Culver's North Atlantic Cod Sandwich, so I returned…read moreto give it another try. My previous order was a few years ago and I recall it being pretty flavorful. My more recent order was light, crispy and served hot, though it didn't have much flavor. It wasn't bad; just not great. My memory could deceive me, but the portion size seemed slightly smaller. My order was prepared quickly and the employee was nice enough. I do, however, wish they had offered condiments such as lemon wedges which were never offered. I know lemon wedges were available in the past. If they still are, it would have been nice if the employee asked if I wanted any or if they could be requested through the app (which I didn't see). The ambiance is casual and the facility was clean. Be aware late night hours can draw large crowds and parking may be limited.

People treat fast food reviews like police reports, they only come calling when there is an issue…read more So I like to balance that out and provide reviews when fast food delivers! This drive-thru-only location is basically the Formula 1 pit crew of chicken sandwiches. The line can look terrifying, but somehow you still get your food faster than most places take to say "welcome in." The staff is consistently friendly, the food actually looks like the menu pictures (a miracle in fast food), and the whole operation runs with suspicious levels of efficiency. There is a patio if you're feeling adventurous, but this is Phoenix, where sitting outside half the year feels like volunteering to be slow-roasted. Thankfully, this spot is perfect for grabbing lunch on the go or picking up dinner on the way home. Fast, friendly, accurate, and reliable, the fast food equivalent of finding a shopping cart with all four wheels working.

So I'm updating my previous review because... plot twist, we had a situation…read more I originally gave this place 4 stars because overall they've been solid. Fast, efficient, food hits, no major complaints. But after my most recent experience, I'm dropping it to 3. I ordered online, paid ahead, did the whole "I'm a responsible adult" thing. I get there, give my name, pull up, and suddenly I'm told my total like I never paid. Then someone loudly calls out from the back, "OH! it declined." First of all... what? Second of all... inside voices?? Here's the kicker: it did NOT decline. I had the confirmation email, and my bank showed the charge (I didn't know this yet). Instead of verifying, she told me matter-of-factly that it declined, so I handed her the exact same card I used online, and she ran it again. Boom, double charged. And at that point, I'm starving and not about to fight over a fast food order, trusting that staff are doing their due diligence, not just assuming and casually charging a second $30 like it's no big deal in this economy. I had to go back through the drive-thru line (again), wait (again), and deal with it while my food sat getting soggy (not again, unfortunately, just once was enough). To their credit, the refund was issued and it did hit my account. So yes, they fixed it. That matters. But... this shouldn't have happened in the first place. It's a training issue. If an order is confirmed, don't assume it declined. And maybe don't announce someone's "declined card" across the building like it's a group discussion topic. Still a decent location... would be smart to verify before you charge people twice (maybe my expectations are too high?) and I will never order online again because of this, lesson learned first time around on that.
