    Here for a conference and wanted a happy hour dinner! This place was perfect. The decor is very classy and the happy hour menu was delicious. We sat at the high tops by the bar and were served immediately. Bread and pesto were brought to our tables and we enjoyed every morsel. Happy ran until 6 which was perfect for our conference schedule. Highly recommend!

    Came around 5pm on a Saturday with two others. Sat fast and service was good. Ordered the skinny spicy margarita which was delicious. Great balance of heat, not too much to blow your taste buds. It lingers in your mouth nicely. The focaccia bread with the pesto was delicious. Mussels were bountiful with a red broth with depth. Loved the onions and sausage with the mussels. Bread must be soaked in the sauce. So delicious. The prosciutto di Parma, best part is the torn bread with whipped ricotta. Good quality prosccuito as well. Wasn't a game changer though. It was good. The lasagna bolognese was a hit. Thanks to the hostess for recommending it. They have a good quality ricotta, so creamy. Just added salt, pepper and more Parmesan cheese. My friend had the short rib and called out that it was a pretty fatty piece. But that the mashed potato's were good. The heirloom tomato and corn flatbread was a hit as well. All dishes were delicious but nothing out of this world. Seems like a good staple for good food.

    The food and atmosphere were incredible! Sam took great care of us. The bacon wrapped dates were a great surprise.

    They have a good selection of pizzas and panninis and they don't skimp on the portion sizes! Sorry, no photo. I ate it too fast!

    Located in A Terminal A at Phoenix Sky Harbor, best food prices I have ever found in an international airport! I appreciate that!

    What a way for Fox Restaurant Concepts to destroy an otherwise great brand. At 7:00 am in terminal 4, this shop is understaffed, with poorly trained people. There is a line out into the airport terminal and another line with nowhere to stand near the register, of people who have paid for food that isn't ready. Barely an apology after food that was ordered and paid for is out of stock. Hire a manager!

    We stopped by its store in Sky Harbor terminal for a brunch. They no longer serve the Mediterranean salad, so we got the Gorgonzola pine nuts chicken salad with Gorgonzola vinegrette dressing. ($14.99) It was full of flavor (Gorgonzola and pine nuts) and I would get it again. I got the 20oz cappuccino and it was a good one. Service was fast and friendly Ambience was good. There is a small seating area in front of the rod the store but at 10:30am on a Saturday it was full.

    Great dining when visiting Sky Harbor for a quick breakfast! Loved the ability to get a great cappuccino and a bite to eat before my flight. The staff was friendly and the coffee shop vibes were cozy before wheels up on my trip to my happy place - Disneyland! I'll definitely return if in this side of the terminal again.

    Super quick layover and needed something fast. Ordered the brioche breakfast sandwich would come with egg cheese, bacon and avocado. Also ordered a large chai latte. I have to say it's the best breakfast I've ever had in an airport. Chai was yummy as well. People are super friendly and more importantly very very fast.

    Stopped by Olive & Ivy for a quick dinner on my way back home from MX. I enjoyed the hot turkey panini although I would have liked the turkey more distributed and a greater portion of lettuce and tomato. The bread was very fresh and toasted perfectly, still soft yet crunchy! I also ordered the pine nut salad which was good although I would have much preferred the chicken be heated before put on the salad and delivered to my table. I found it to be rather dry and cold which detracted from my joy :-) their staff were helpful, though not quite as warm and friendly a professional.

Normally their lunch sandwich special comes with fries but you can sub it out for the 3 main sides of the day. Options were corn, mashed potatoes, or broccolini. I was craving asparagus or broccolini so it was perfect for me. The greens were lightly charred but crunchy and soft at the same time. Lunch portions of the sandwich also weren't massive. The sandwich had a white fish breaded and fried. The patty was decent without being thick or oily. Good amount of tartar sauce spread on it as well. If the sandwich was any bigger then work afterwards wouldn't have been fun. Oh, also got a delicious dirty martini to pair with the food. Gin served down and it was made to perfection! Including the drink and an $8 tip the total for lunch was $48. Which isn't horrible. Been craving oysters recently so probably will be back for dinner and get an appetizer and dessert too. Good service, fresh seafood, and clean restaurant. I'll be back!

    What an amazing evening, beautifully curated with so many thoughtful details. Only downside is that…read morefor some reason Apple maps was not accurate to finding the location and parking was a challenge as it is right on Roosevelt Row. However as soon as I found it and immediately after entering Pretty Penny I was transformed to the cutest little restaurant. I was greeted immediately and had made a reservation so even though my friend hadn't arrived yet, they sat me down. They instantly offered water and menus (food and cocktail). I noticed that the menu seemed very small and the dishes were shareable -- I don't eat meat so I was hoping my friend wouldn't mind sticking with fish and seafood (which she didn't). As soon as I got to my table there was the cutest sign that said welcome to Sarah Sherman and guest -- it was such an adorable and personal touch, I loved that! As soon as my friend got there we immediately both ordered the cold brew old fashioned -- we thought about the espresso martini but this just sounded too good to pass up -- and we were not disappointed! This drink was so tasty and strong. We immediately ordered the bread (sourdough boule) to soak up some of the alcohol as well as some oysters and the salsa. The oysters were so well spiced and were absolutely delicious. But the bread, the bread, the bread -- the server mentioned that it took almost 9 months to develop the bread recipe and it served. It was the best bread and butter that I think I have ever had! The salsa was good but probably was my least favorite of everything and it was still super yummy. We then moved on to the octopus tostadas. Sometimes octopus is not my fav -- it can be too chewy but this was so amazing and incredibly flavorful. It was starting to be my favorite dish until we ordered the Hamachi -- OMG!! Talk about a mouth orgasm-- both my friend and I were yummming it up -- but seriously this bite was so complex with different flavors coming up with every chew -- it has coriander candied peanuts, fermented pineapple, avocado, pickled fresno, toasted coconut and aji amarillo yogurt -- The server mentioned that this was the chef's least favorite dish which I totally do not understand because this was off the charts in my book. We also tried the earl gray whiskey sour, which was light and delicious, and ended with the shrimp toast and the espresso martini. By the way the toast on the shrimp toast was like a little fried dough triangle -- sooooo gooood! The martini was good but the cold brew old fashioned really stole the spotlight for me. Other details I loved that just elevated the experience: Purse hook (very important to me), the little trays for your utensils, metal coasters, incredibly attentive servers, fantastic music, great ambiance and the cutest was the penny they put on top of your check. So cute -- was not expecting such an enjoyable all around experience!! Will be back 1000%!!!

    It was pretty good but certainly not worth the titular pretty penny price--and we didn't even get…read morethe recommended 8 dishes, which is, like, the entire menu. To start, the menu is a bit puzzling. It's kind of like a handful of Asian-inspired dishes, a handful of Mexican/South American, and a handful of French or New American. But there's not enough of each to chart a course through one type of cuisine. So, basically you're gonna have a cultural melange meal. Hamachi crudo was really good and fairly unique. The halibut was excellently prepared but not particularly innovative in any way I could tell. Zucchini had goat cheese, which wasn't immediately clear from the description, so I didn't enjoy the rude surprise I got when I took my first bite, and didn't eat anymore, as I really despise the stuff. So that was a waste. Not a dig on the dish, just a personal thing I wish I had more notice of. There were other issues though. The wine list was exceptionally small, They were out of the bread, which is supposedly a must-try. And then we were going to get the steak but the folks next to us advised against it, showing their cut that had zero fat. They said it was leather. On that point, the tables are SUPER CLOSE. Like, a couple inches apart. You hear everything and almost can't avoid getting entwined into others' conversation. We liked the people we were next to, but be aware that it's an unintentionally awkward communal experience that's not well-suited to a date night. The service was pretty good, they put out a nice printed greeting with the reservation name, and give you a sparkling wine toast. But considering the price and overall experience we had, I'd pass and not come back.

Let me explain, they are thinly cut at a bias and have the most amazing breading making them so nice and crispy! If you don't know about them, you need to!

Onion rings, delicious super crispy and they have a different type breading, that is seasoned so well. The service is great and well I don't know what more I could ask for after a long day of working.

    First, if you're looking for lobster, there isn't any here. It's a fish 'n chips place (with other…read moregood stuff), but no lobster despite the name. Second, it's excellent. Arizona has a problem with fish 'n chips. Namely that all they have here are the square, frozen fish patties. All the places Arizonans rave about (like Pete's and Mandy's, etc.) are just frozen fish patties. That's not fish 'n chips. That's a TV dinner. Thankfully, Knock Kneed Lobster is a throwback to an actual fish 'n chips joint. No frozen patties anywhere in sight. The place was built in the 40s and it's in a crappy neighborhood near Sky Harbor airport and diagonal from a strip joint. But don't let that stop you. There is so much to try here and none of it disappoints. The fish is Alaskan cod and it's as good as anything in the west coast. California has some stellar fish n chips, and the fish here is just as good. The cod is flaky and mild and fresh. The batter is cornmeal based, but it's light and not doughy or raw inside. They fry it to a perfect golden brown. The menu has dozens of variations of it (1 piece, 2 piece, 3 piece with 2 shrimp, etc.). The basic fish n chips comes with some old fashioned French fries (the perfect skinny ones like they should be). And one of the best parts is the "salsa bar" where you get your own tartar sauce, ketchup, cocktail sauce, ranch, fresh cut lemons, as much as you want. Mix and match; whatever. In another area you can dispense malt vinegar and Louisiana hot sauce to your heart's content. And in another area is an enormous fountain drink machine with everything you can imagine. But beyond the fish 'n chips is a lot more. The fried shrimp is awesome. They have clams and oysters and catfish too. And don't miss the fried zucchini. It's one of the best I've ever had, and their ranch is excellent. The fried mushrooms are to die for, so it's tough to pick! This place is the real deal. It's definitely a throwback to another era, and I imagine these places won't survive for much longer. Family-owned restaurants are being attacked through regulation, economic pressure, city ordinances, and enormous pressure from corporate-owned eateries. Come here while you still can and taste what really good fish 'n chips should be- even in the middle of the desert.
