The burger was fantastic, nice heat from the jalapeño, so if you're into spicy, try it out. The fries were crinkle cut, I know that matters to some, and were crispy. The atmosphere was calm, it didn't make you feel rushed. I talked with the owner a bit, he made me feel welcomed and valued. 10/10 would recommend if you're looking for a big patty burger!

A huge shoutout to Katelyn, the manager, who truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and that we had an unforgettable time. Her attention to detail and positive energy made all the difference. Hands down, this place exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend

My house red wine was from Portugal and was very smooth and medium bodied with fruity notes. To our surprise there was trivia night and we had so much fun. We got 1st place 3 times, 2nd place once, and 3rd place once. It was literally a blast. I love music trivia. My pizza was really delicious with grilled pineapple, prosciutto, Mozzarella and ricotta cheese. My husband tried the chicken pesto sandwich with fries and pineapple Cole slaw. It was very flavorful and filling. The ciabatta bun was surprisingly soft. Kudos to the chef.

Grand Avenue Brewing is my first choice when I feel like going out…read more My personal ritual is to start with a flight of 4 oz pours, which lets me sample several beers and enjoy the experience of discovering my favorite for that visit before settling in with a full glass. Happy Jack, their cream ale, is a always in my flight along with the Quad, my favorite beer of all time. The rotating seasonals keep every visit feeling fresh. What I find remarkable is that I never experience the after effects I get from commercial store bought beer. The food program is genuinely special -- house smoked BBQ, loaded baked potatoes, soft pretzels, noodle bowls, loaded mac and cheese, and green chili, with vegetarian options too. The setting -- a vintage historic warehouse in the heart of Phoenix's lower Grand Avenue arts district -- gives it a soul that's hard to find anywhere else. If you can make it on a First Friday, the live music takes the whole experience up another notch. Add in a dog-friendly patio and retail beer to go, and there's truly nothing missing. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate, and the owner is always on premises and never too busy to share a great conversation. It's no wonder Grand Avenue Brewing has been voted one of the Top 10 Breweries in Metro Phoenix. Five stars without question

I'm not sure if there's additional parking in the back, but the parking spaces out front are very limited. The first thing I noticed after walking in was how dim the space was. It was actually a little difficult to even see the menu. The menu was relatively small, but I ended up ordering their Aftermath Burger, which they told me is an award-winning burger. I liked the presentation, with three different sauces and the fries served in a cup. However, the burger was way too salty for my taste, and the bun was too crumbly and kept falling apart. Overall, I had a good experience here, and the waitresses were very friendly and helpful.

The sausage & broccolini pasta had good overall flavor with a decent kick of heat, though it leaned a little too heavy on the salt. The miso and lemon pepper wings were both fine, typical wings. My glass of wine tasted flat, so that was a bit of a letdown. Surprisingly though, the highlight drink of the night was my date's IPA. I don't even like IPAs, but it was genuinely delightful! Since the restaurant doesn't seem to have a designated lot, parking downtown can be a gamble. I got lucky and found a street meter for just $1.20/hour. However, my date ended up in the private lot directly behind the building and that was a $33 charge for 3 hours! Just a heads-up to think about about parking options ahead. Overall is was a decent date night experience.

Arizona Wilderness Brewery is hands down the best brewery in my neighborhood and my go-to spot when…read moreI want incredible food, outstanding craft beer, and a fun atmosphere. If it's your first visit, the AZ Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich is an absolute must. It's perfectly crispy with just the right amount of heat and packed with flavor in every bite. One of my favorite traditions is stopping by after work on Thursdays to take advantage of the $5 IPA special. It's the perfect way to unwind, catch up with friends, and enjoy some of Arizona's finest locally crafted beer. Whether you're there for the food, the beer, or the lively patio atmosphere, Arizona Wilderness never disappoints. If you're in the neighborhood--or even if you're not--it's well worth the visit. Highly recommended!

Made the long drive from Gilbert to see what the hype was about and let me say....that soft serve was WORTH IT! I got the swirl and it was soooooo refreshing and delicious. I have seen people comment that they were too strong (I don't see the problem or maybe some people don't really like tequila) but mine was perfect! Not strong at all. The only reason I didn't give this updated review a 5-I ordered the banh mi sando and the sandwich was so dry. Chicken was dry. The cilantro wasn't chopped I had to pick out long stems. Also I got the AZ frosè and the rosemary syrup was just way too pungent to enjoy the whole beverage. I wished it had been more balanced. Especially when the French fries are heavily seasoned with rosemary--a bit too much.

We were in town for a huge convention, and the restaurant was packed on a Monday night. Luckily, we found seats at the bar, and that turned out to be a fantastic choice. Our bartender/server, Chia, was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly busy, but somehow made sure everyone at the bar received phenomenal service. Friendly, attentive, and always on top of everything--she really made the experience special. And the food was fantastic! Everything we had was tasty, but I especially loved the grilled Brussels sprouts. And the brownie lava cake with ice cream was absolutely delicious--the perfect way to finish the meal! I also really enjoyed the ambiance. It has that energetic downtown feel and is a great spot for sporting events, drinks, dinner, or just hanging out. There's also outdoor seating with misters, although with temperatures still over 102F at 7 p.m., most people wisely chose to dine inside where it was much cooler. A little history The Arrogant Butcher opened in 2011 at CityScape in downtown Phoenix, becoming one of restaurateur Sam Fox's early downtown Phoenix concepts under Fox Restaurant Concepts. Its location right in the heart of downtown, next to what was then US Airways Center, made it a natural destination for game nights, conventions, and downtown visitors. All in all, great downtown location, excellent service, delicious food, and a fun atmosphere. It's conveniently located not far from the Sheraton, which made it an easy walk/ride for us. Highly recommend The Arrogant Butcher! And a special shoutout to Chia for taking such great care of us. Cheers!

We have visited this fine "speakeasy" style restaurant on my occasion since they have opened and…read morehave always been happy with our experience. From the great wood grain basement dark ambience to to the raw, regular bar, and multiple sit-down options, we have tried it all. The allure of trying to find a place down in a basement where you have to find the right elevator was pretty bad ass. The hosts along with the waitresses and bar tenders are always welcoming and knowledgeable about their food and drink. I also think it is cool that you can get lockers to store your expensive liquor for return trips. We often come here for drinks and oysters, because my wife loves oysters and they have a wide range of options that aren't exactly cheap, but don't break the bank for freshness and taste. I only really mark down the rating because the menu has been stale over the years and they used to offer elk that is no longer available. Now call that pretentions or snooty, but I think they could use some unique options to keep the experience moving each time you come in. Also, I feel a restaurant of this caliber should be evolving to match their cool vibe and unique experience. I usually get the Wren house beer but feel the beer optiosn are limiting I also feel like some of their cocktails are overpriced, but they are unique compared to other places, so maybe I am just cheap. So really this rating should be more a 4.5. What really brings you back is the cool art on the wall with a Theodore Roosevelt slant and cool sitting areas like a sofa setting in what looks like it would be his old school library. Don't get me wrong everything I have eaten here has been good, but nothing hearkens back like that elk. This place makes for an amazing tinder date if you are willing to drop that cash and make that impression, come here then hop on over to Valley bar and she will think you are magician of illusive locations if she hasn't already been there.

Outside is just as high class and wonderfully decorated as the inside. We even got a couch booth and got to sit next to each other. We did the summer special which was the best special I've ever seen. $60 per person and you get a generous glass of wine, app, entree, and dessert. We both got the curried corn bisque for the app and my oh my I greatly enjoyed this even on a hotter day. The Smokey popcorn was a nice textural addition and the soup was so flavorful, the curry definitely shined through! We also both got the fried chicken for entrees; how could I not order the gluten free fried chicken!? Yes, naturally gluten free! This was outstanding. I'm not sure what the coating is, but it was so so flavorful and so crispy, and the chicken still so juicy. I could eat that on its own. The pepper jems were a cute touch! The mashed potatoes were so creamy. The chicken was placed on top of them so the bottom of the chicken did get soggy so my one suggestion is to place the chicken to the side, but the coating did rub into the potatoes which added some more flavor. The green beans were also tasty, nothing special, but the pistachio butter elevated it (nothing else needed the pistachio butter, not sure what else you use it for). I had a chocolate cake for dessert, the only gluten free dessert they offered me, but I still appreciate the option. It was just okay. The cake was dense and a little dry and didn't scream rich chocolate. There was a chocolate mousse layered in which helped. My boyfriend had some sort of strawberry cake mousse thing with layers of many different things - he thought it okay, I tried the mousse part and really liked it. We had red wine and it was delicious! The service was great, very attentive and they packed some ice in a cup for me because we weren't going home after!
