Went here for my birthday last week. It was fantastic. Atmosphere was very relaxed and service was excellent. Would definitely like to come back and check out the patio area sometime. ( We sat inside.) The converted house definitely lends itself to a feeling of laid-back coziness. For dinner we started with the burrata. The cheese was delicious and well seasoned and the homemade bread was amazing - warm, crusty and coated in olive oil and rosemary. Next we had the garden salad, which was a little plain. Though the greens and tomatoes were nice and fresh, we didn't receive any cucumbers. Luckily the parmesan, pepper corn dressing rescued the dish with some excellent flavors. For the main course my girlfriend and I split the green chili pork with potatoes au gratin. The chili was as good as anything I've had in new Mexico but the real standout were the potatoes. Thinly sliced and layered with cheese and cream they're almost like a pavre. They were excellent by themselves and even better paired with the chili. To drink my girlfriend had a glass of pinot grigio while I had the funkwerks saison. There were plenty more choices for wine and beer and it seemed like they had a full bar. Definitely something for everyone here. I'll see what photos I have and upload them along with this review. Definitely pleased with my experience. I'd recommend Oven+Vine to anyone looking for a casual meal. I'll be back to try out the Flatbread eventually! read more

Came in for lunch here the other day and was very satisfied. My friend and I ordered the prosciutto flatbread and Italian salad to share and everything was absolutely delicious. Our waiter made great food recommendations! There is a nice outdoor seating and an indoor/outdoor bar top. Play some bags if you please. Very cute little house with coffee shop just next door. Highly recommend for a nice little lunch spot in Central Phoenix. read more

I've been 4 times in the last month, and they have never let me down. Like the way the bar is set up, wine selection is very good, bread is fantastic. Charcuterie was excellent, both the cheese, and meat selections. Salad was delicious. Do try the rigatoni, and ask them to add sausage. Good prices, and great quality. read more

A cute place in a great location. Unfortunately walked here to find they put politics before food and they aren't even nice about it. So very sad for uptown Phoenix. I was hoping to support a local establishment even though I can make great bread and pasta at home but I won't be back due to terrible hospitality. Yes, you sell food but also an experience...and one that falls very short of inclusivity and common sense. read more

I have business meetings here all the time for lunch. Parking is easy. You can talk without yelling and the food is tremendous. My favorite is the pork green chile read more

This is the best restaurant to visit if you want to meet real Phoenicians! All the locals from the area come here and hangout. The have the best drinks and the staff is amazing. The bread keeps you coming back. read more

Darling out-of-the-way place that has an excellent wine selection and delicious flatbread. We started with the fresh bread and while normally I balk at charging for things that many places give away for free, the $3 is nominal for the yummy yeasty experience. (Do it.) Ask for extra olive oil and balsamic as you'll likely need it. Service was excellent and when I requested the check shortly after our meals arrived, our waiter was on the ball with cashing us out and dropping off boxes. A directional note: take Central to Vernon because if you try to cross Vernon from the west, there's a gate and you'll have to go up to Thomas for a do-over. read more

Came here for a quick lunch with a friend. Small and quaint, this place is really adorable. I like the vibe. It does have its own small parking lot in the back which is nice. I ordered the rigatoni and my friend had the chicken lasagna. The dishes weren't terrible but they weren't great. Mine was pretty flavorless actually and the sauce tasted canned (like Ragu). The server asked if I wanted to add sausage and I declined. The sausage probably would have added more flavor. My friends dish was also drowning in the same flavorless sauce and didn't have much in the way of vegetables in it as described on the menu. Our server was nice enough but kind of aloof. We had to waive him down to take our order. Meh. I didn't love it, didn't hate it. I would come back and order something else. read more

Such a cute little spot tucked away off of Central Ave. Great outdoor seating with plenty of social distancing and fresh air. Laid back friendly neighborhood vibe. read more

I loved the atmosphere! Kinda wished they had a sign that says seat yourself though for first timers so we didn't walk around looking foolish lol Ordered green chili chicken with au gratin potatoes, both were phenomenal! Green chili chicken was full of flavor and thick, not too wet. I wish I would have added the jalapenos for more spice, next time! The potatoes are just as good as they look!!! Hubby ordered the Bacontarian with added roast chicken and fingerling potatoes. Both were delicious!! We ordered a side of the jalapeno roumalade to dip the fingerling potatoes in to and it was bliss. Menu is small and it's a very casual atmosphere but I enjoyed it and I'm sure I'll be back. read more

Super impressed. I had not been in since the pandemic started and was a little nervous because I know how small this establishment is. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that there was no inside dining. It's all outdoor, tables properly spaced out, and all employees wore masks - this alone warrants 5 stars. read more

Came here before obedience class for the dogs. The patio is excellent and the food is to die for! Great beer selection and dog friendly to boot! Once it cools down a bit we'll definitely be back! read more

I absolutely love this place. Such a cute setting for a date night and the food selection and wines are amazing. Easily my favorite place to go in Phoenix. read more

I enjoyed the Caprese salad and sausage/mushroom flatbread last evening. Plenty of delicious food. The wine selection is also very adequate. I will return when in the area. F read more

Well it's a Friday and mostly towards the end of the evening. Let's try something different. I have heard nothing but great things about this place so I gave it a whirl. Service was pretty good but this restaurant is small and it seemed that they had just got done with a rush. Wine selection was great! Menu is small but accommodating. Had a salad and the brisket/ pot roast which was super yummy. The Mediterranean salad was ok. Was just missing something. Chocolate dessert was fabulous! Will be back to try the pasta which everyone was eating. read more

This is a go to take out pizza for us. So incredibly good and fresh. However, if you go and eat there they have a delicious menu and great outdoor seating. Dog friendly patio and they have bags on the lawn. Highly recommend both dine in and take out. read more

Great location but......Bird crap on all outside tables and told by server don't you know how to read the sign.

Great neighborhood location....horrible experience with zero customer service. Find another spot!!!

Its a little house from way back when tucked away on Vernon. It makes for a great date night , its one of those intimate settings, or in real estate speak, the place is very cozy. The setting is great for a date night is basically what I am getting at. It is not stuffy but a nice warm place to enjoy a nice quiet meal. They have a good selection of vegetarian and vegan options which is always a plus in my book and a pretty good selection of beers including a rotating beer selection. When the weather is permitting they do have an outdoor patio area where you can play cornhole (not sure why they came up with that name !) and other lawn games. So if you were with friends it could be a nice place to just grab that post work beer outside. Having said that it does get busy because it is a small-ish place and so there may be a wait or you can get lucky like we did and get seated in 5 minutes. The food is awesome and I pretty much destroyed whatever it was that came out. Also the au gratin potatoes are addictive, so don't ever get those, you've been warned ! read more

Went here for happy hour. Good wine and cocktail options, not huge discounts for happy hour though. Food was really tasty, but again, not cheap. Expect a fairly high bill. Not sure if I'll be going here regularly. read more

Wow. Not in a good way. My first Yelp review ever. Rudest treatment at a restaurant ever. And from my "Cheers" -- breaks my heart. I live across the street and come here often. What happened the other night is shocking to me. I gave myself a couple days to think about it before posting this review, but this is just not cool. My server, Austin, made three round trips past my table after I wanted to order a second glass of wine and my glass was empty. No worries, but the second trip he went to the bar and checked his phone before getting water for the table behind me. The third trip he delivered the water, went past me, and was showing someone else his phone at the kitchen counter. I was sitting right across from the bar and called out "Austin!" He acknowledged me, but didn't come to my table. After waiting for a while, I decided to leave and told Austin never mind. While paying my bill with the owner, Austin came by and said maybe yelling at him wasn't the best way to get service. I said I didn't "yell at" him, I just called out his name to get his attention because he had walked by three times and was on his phone. He said I did too yell at him, that I was rude and disrespectful -- and I knew it -- and that my wine glass was never empty. I just said "Wow." Michelle -- the owner -- was right there. She counted out my change and said "thank you." I looked at her and asked, "That's it?" Apparently it was, because all she said was, "I don't know what's going on here." Except she heard exactly what Austin said to me and how he said it. Austin, WTF? You have waited on me many times. I have brought you lemon bars. What made you decide that calling your name made me a bitch queen "yelling at" you? Michelle, you were right there. If it is acceptable to you for your employees to talk to customers this way, well let other customers be your employees' punching bags. I give plenty of allowance for "things happen," but not for in-your-face rudeness without no hint of apology. I vote with my wallet, as we all should when confronted with businesses that treat us this way. Let me be clear: this experience was one star, not representative of the many good 4 or 5 star experiences I've had there. But this just illustrates that it only takes one horrible experience to wipe out many good experiences. Not my "Cheers" any more. Bummer. read more

Great urban eatery. Good wines and craft beers. Food portions are reasonable. I had the ribs and they were good, the mushroom appetizer was delicious. Cool atmosphere. read more

I went there for late lunch on Saturday and it was just me and one more couple. Food was really good. I like the location, quite and hidden. Staff was good. read more

Wow, this is an amazing place! The food is great and the ambiance is to die for! Very cozy and intimate place - outdoor and indoor seating. Wherever you sit you'll feel comfortable as this is an intimate place. Great service too. The owners are very attentive. Michelle, the owner was fabulous. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and flat breads - all was delicious!! read more

I love this place! Food is delicious, fun atmosphere, great place to stop whether you live in the neighborhood or make an intentional trip over (I am lucky enough to live in walking distance!) Cute outdoor area also for when the weather is nice. Highly recommend!! read more

Poor customer service. Our waitress was not helpful with the menu. The food is not the best.

This is one of my new favorite places. A cool renovated 1940's house. Plenty of parking. Did you catch that? There's plenty of parking. Well, I suppose the lot could fill up, but I've been there 3 times, each on a separate Saturday night and found a spot in the lot each time. Yipee. K used to work at St. Joes Hospital, just up Central. So some of her old coworkers come here to hang. We were invited the first time and loved it so much we came back twice on our own. 3 separate times, 3 separate experiences, all amazing. On one occasion our server was Ronnie. We couldn't have asked for anyone nicer. Attentive when needed but not in our face all the time. Paced the evening just right. On this particular night, K and I just had drinks. A couple of glasses of wine each while we visited with our friends. We'll be back. The friendly staff, awesome atmosphere, and amazing patio would be enough but add the good food and drinks and its winner winner chicken dinner for sure. Great Vibe, Great staff, Great Food, Fair prices. Parking. 5 Stars. read more

Stopped by for some cocktails before going to First Friday at the Heard (directly across on Central). Had the roasted vegatable which lacked flavor and did not have any significant roasted goodness. On the plus side even though it was hopping on a Friday after work, they were able to get us a seat at the bar within ~5 minutes. read more

Such a cool and cozy environment. There was a fun outdoor space and very family friendly. The barbacoa beef was amazing!

It's a tiny low ceiling place behind a building with a canvas sign out front. At first we were dubious. The doubt was squashed when we got our food. Green chile pork and mushroom and sausage flatbread! So flavorful and delicious. The ambiance is very chill and the service was great. We will for sure be back soon. read more

This place is 5 years old? Why have I not heard about it?! It was delicious. Loved everything. Menu, service and atmosphere were superb. Northern New Mexico roots and food influences including hot green Chile and Albuquerque brewed beer were the best. Glad I made it in. Got to chat with one of the owners who filled me in on her Santa Fe and Las Vegas NM area roots read more

Vegan pesto. Enough said. It is rather trendy, but surprisingly, we were able to get a table fairly quickly on a Saturday night. Our waitress was very friendly. read more

Really nice place on the side of Willo district. Best part is the atmosphere. Very cute patio space. The food is also very refreshing and light. The menu isn't super expansive but what they have was very good. Definitely recommend for a quick break or trip with work friends. read more

Well first off let me start by saying what a wonderful collection of wine this place has. I was blow away by the selection of cabs found here (which is my favorite!). It took me years to find a good wine bar by my house and this one won me over easily. The prices are fair and reasonable. Don't expect to get a $2 glass of win though. I felt right at home with the decor and ambiance of the restaurant. If you are searching for a wine bar, look no further! 5 Stars, plus great service! read more

Oven + Vine - Indoor seating - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The atmosphere is very casual but the food is extraordinary! I very rarely find comfort in the ambiance AND the food. This is high class dining without all the pomp and pretentious scenery. Highly recommend! We will be going back for sure! Great for dates or family gatherings. There are outside tables with a lawn where I saw kids playing. Inside we enjoyed drinks and cheese plates. read more

Yum, yum, yum!! This is such a great little spot, plus it's walking distance from my house (incentive to drink more wine I think)! These guys know what they are doing and I am so happy to see the owners have more success after Portlands closed. The menu has a nice selection of options, with flat breads taking up a good chunk of it. I've had many of them, most recently The Earl. Dang, that was one spicy flat bread but totally delicious. Their Ashland salad is quite yummy (you can't go wrong with bacon) and I also really like to get their roasted veggies too. The burrata is also delicious, I just wish there was more it to devour. I've also heard good things about the lasagna and green chile pork. They also have a nice selection of wines and beers with the waiters all being pretty knowledgeable in guiding you to a good glass. The food is always out quick, servers always friendly, plus the decor is just adorable. I love the bathrooms (weird to say but check them out and you'll agree :D). read more

First, I have to say that I'm really mad that I moved around the corner from here three months ago, go to rollover donuts regularly, and still didn't go to oven + vine until tonight. I'm just so mad that good food has been this close to me and I didn't know it. Ok. On to the review of this fantastic spot. We brought my parents who were visiting from out of town to check out a local spot. The ambience is casual and laid back without trying to feel too hip or snooty - it feels like it's a part of the neighborhood. We grabbed a spot at the middle table and our waiter Austin came to grab our drink and appetizer orders. We ordered the roasted mushrooms and buffaletta. The mushrooms were roasted in garlic oil and topped with shaved Parmesan, served with the best bread I've ever had at a restaurant. They came out piping hot and they were fantastic! The buffaletta was creamy and drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar - it's my favorite cheese, and they did it justice. My husband and I each got a flatbread. I got the Margherita and added prosciutto. Their marinara sauce is divine. The crust, better than anything else that tries to call itself a "flatbread." Bubbly, crispy, chewy perfection topped with fresh mozzarella and basil. My husband got the Earl and while I didn't try it, he certainly loved it. My parents both got the green chile chicken. I have to say this - my mom is really picky. She is an amazing cook and doesn't like to go out to eat much and doesn't want to waste her time or money on something she could make at home. My mom took one bite of the green chile chicken and a huge grin came across her face. Then she started dancing in her seat. It is that good, guys. So tender and juicy and spicy and delicious. She got a side of the au gratin potatoes and they were so creamy and struck the perfect balance between savory, salty and just a hint of lactic sweetness. My dad finished his bowl and had a side of the roasted seasonal vegetables that looked awesome. Mom had enough left over that she's going to put it on toast with a sunny side up egg tomorrow morning (I can't wait). We capped the night off with the chocolate torte and a scoop of gelato to split between the four of us. The torte was so perfectly dense and rich, and the tartness of the raspberry compote that came on the plate paired with the torte so well. I have no complaints. Fantastic atmosphere, great service and delicious food. I can't wait to bring my friends the next time for drinks, appetizers and that amazing torte! read more

I finally made it to this super nice place that many of my friends recommended. It was exactly the way they described it if not even better. I went to meet up with my friend and we were both first timers, As soon as we entered premises, we were greeted by really friendly employee who worked at the bar area. She advised us that we can have a seat at any available table. We agreed on the table inside. The place was so cozy and has such a nice atmosphere. Both of us being born and raised in Europe, this kind of place made as feel just like home. Our server even had European roots. Funny, ha? He was super cool. Very welcoming and informative. He explained the menu, including the Happy Hour one. Also, he made sure to check on us during our entire stay. We "obviously" ordered some wine and some of their extremely delicious starters. Everything was great. Food was delicious and when it comes to wine, I never had one I did not like :) There is also patio outside and with beautiful Arizona weather, I can't think of a better way to go. Wine + Starters + Weather = Pure Happiness. Parking will not be an issue either, considering it is semi-downtown location. read more

Oven + Vine is awesome! Highly recommend this restaurant, as it's one of my favorites in Central Phoenix.

Only stopped by for a quick bite to eat, however, was very impressed! Great atmosphere as we walked in. Quick and prompt service once we sat down. We decided to order the Green Chili Pork and the Prosciutto Pesto Flatbread. Meals came with their homemade bread. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious, although pork was a little spicer than expected. 4 start due to not knowing anything about their drinks or happy hour. Would love to go back and try it again! read more
