    spicy ginger quinoa bowl
    Annie G.

    So yummy! I got the tukee pear with chicken and the bacon bits were perfectly crunchy, chicken was flavorful and cooked well, and the quesadilla shell was crisp while still being a bit soft. Pepper jack cheese was also gooey and overall it was great with or without the dip! My partner got a spicy ginger quinoa bowl and it was also really good, the pumpkin seeds added a really nice savory crunch and brussel sprouts were cooked well and had plenty of flavor. The butternut squash and other ingredients were great. The only thing was the lemonade tasted a bit artificial but I still liked it. Service was super friendly, memorized our order, and food was served really fast! Ambiance is nice with high ceilings and a few fans circulating the air. Windows let in a lot of light and the booth is cozy. Tons of parking nearby too. We came in at on a Tuesday at around 3 or 4, and we got seated right away.

    Quinoa bowl with salmon.
    Stacey G.

    Relaxing, guilt-free lunch. Confidently ordered the butternut squash tacos and I chose wisely! Daughter loved her quinoa bowl with added salmon, mother in law ate every bite of her tomato basil soup. Finished with peach and pear cobbler plus brownie. Very good.

    Ginger bowl with falafels

    I haven't been to Perfect Pear for 5 years, and this place has changed...for the better!!! Before COVID, all I would order was the green chili mac and cheese and never explored the rest of the menu. I regretted that I waited so long for not trying out the quinoa bowl!! I added falafel to mine and my friend added chicken to hers. YUMMY x 100000! Another dish I tried this time: The hummus nachos! I would highly recommend it! It huge and needs 4 people to finish! My friend and I both had leftover to take home. Last but not least, they are pet-friendly! My friend brought our puppy and we sat at the patio for the meal. The only slight discomfort from sitting outdoors was the mosquitoes. I got bit 4 times. Next time I'll remember to bring repellent.

    Green Chile Cheese Dip
    Marisa B.

    Honestly didn't have a bad bite here - everything was SO good! I got the French pantry sandwich and the pear Cobb salad as a side, husband got the green chile grilled cheese, and we split the green chile cheese dip and the pumpkin brownie!! The dip and the sandwiches (and the side of fries) were amazing - very flavorful and satisfying. The French pantry sandwich in particular was so yummy and satiating, my husband took a bite and loved it too! Portions were big and we ended up bringing half of nearly everything home, so needless to say I am very excited for my lunch tomorrow (lol). No pictures of the pumpkin brownie because it disappeared too fast for me to pull my phone out - DIVINE! The service was great, and the restaurant was adorable - I loved that they worked pear in across the menu, it really added to the cute and cozy theme!! Prices are also very reasonable across the menu - will definitely be coming back here soon!

    Cabo Spicy Cobb, no bacon, with Brussel sprouts
    Stacy F.

    The Cabo Spicy Cobb salad is amazing, I highly recommend it! The staff was so kind and helpful when I placed my to-go order and the food was ready very fast. The inside of the restaurant is cute and looks like it would comfortable to dine in. Try this place out if you're in Tempe.

    We stopped at the Perfect Pear on a whim while running errands. What a pleasant surprise. The decor is super cute. Our waitress was just a doll. And the food.... who orders a grill cheese sandwich at a restaurant? I did this day and... Wow! It was so good. I would absolutely order it again . Highly recommend!

    Nice place for a good sandwich. Extensive menu to choose from. Very good group style service. Thanks for the clean bathrooms.

    We dined in the evening. The food was not as fresh as when we have dined for lunch. Service was not as attentive as during lunch either.

    Baja lime salad
    Shawn D.

    BLTA was great. The bread was warm and soft, with a perfect balance of the crunchy bacon. The baja lime salad was refreshing. Wished we added chicken, but it was still filling.

    Arley L.

    My girlfriend and I love perfect pear! The food is always so good and the drinks are just as good. The pear mule is always delicious, the white sangria is good and even the ice tea is refreshing. The salads are all good portions, they always have several different soup options to choose from. Its a nice ambiance that give a modern yet traditional feel to it. The service is always good. Overall 10/10 recommend this place, great lunch spot!

    Peach & Pear Cobbler
    Norm W.

    Stopped in for the Peach & Pear Cobbler withCoffee. First time at this location. Had it once before and it was exceptional. Forgot it came with 3 scoops of ice cream. Katy was our server. All good here.

    Pesto grilled cheese
    Bella T.

    This is a cute little spot in Tempe! My friend and I came here for the first time, and we came in around 8pm on a Friday night (they close at 9pm!) The lighting was intimate and the restaurant felt rustic yet cozy. There were only a few people in the restaurant when we got there, so we got seated right away. I really enjoyed the food and the selection! I think it's so cool they have many tasty variations of grilled cheeses and Mac and cheese. I ordered the pesto grilled cheese and was not disappointed. I loved that the bread was baked with cheese, so it was like a very cheesy bread (the taste was similar to an Asiago bagel). The fries were good as well. Our waiter was efficient and satisfactorily friendly. Overall, I think this is a great place to come if you're looking for healthy comfort food, and especially great if you're vegetarian because there are lots of vegetarian options! I'd come again.

    BLTA w/ sweet potato fries
    Jackie T.

    I got the BLTA with sweet potato fries, it was good but can't say I'd get it again. The bacon was broken up, not full pieces and the ciabatta was okay. The fries were great though! I'll definitely be back to try something different.

Azbel was a great server. I had the bistro steak and fries and the Szechuan lettuce wraps, and both were really good. Portions were generous. During late-night happy hour my total was about $55 for a main entrée, an appetizer, a cocktail, and tip, which felt like a great deal. I was pleasantly surprised that happy hour runs every day Monday through Sunday from 3-6 PM and again from 8 PM to close. I also checked out the event venue on site, and it looks like it would be a great place for a company party, corporate event, or group gathering. I'll definitely be returning in the near future.

We were setup in a separate dining area from the main dining room, which allowed for better conversation without added noise. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive the entire time we were there, which was a couple hours. The milk bread is an absolute must! It's so pillowy soft and the flaky sea salt perfectly compliments it. I ordered the Wise Decision cocktail, which was refreshing. For my entree, I had the shishito Caesar salad and was advised I could add a protein from their skewer selection of chicken, pork belly or oyster mushrooms. I asked the waitress about the chicken and she advised that they are smoked and will appear pink from that, so not to be alarmed, but are moist and really flavorful. While the filet was tempting (and what everyone else at my table ordered), I wanted something lighter. Thankfully I was not disappointed in my selection. The chicken was as delicious as described and could be cut with a fork. The Caesar salad was well dressed, but not soggy. Do I think it was worth the money to add the chicken? Not if I were paying, but since my company paid for it, I think it was worth it. This is a great spot for a date night or special occasion.

I ordered the smoked wings smothered in BBQ sauce and they were very good. The smokiness added a uniqueness to a meaty wing. I do think they could upgrade the TV set up by adding some 85 inch flat panels because my elderly eyes struggled to see the action from some of the TVs a little further away from our bar area hi-top. Nevertheless, it's a great bar restaurant that includes a game room. I can see why Bonfire is typically busy when I drive by it, on my way to pick up some beer or booze at Total Wine nearby. Thanks, Bonfire for being a fun, good luck World Cup host. Go USA! *Tip* Bonfire is kid friendly with a kids menu and gaming room. Bring on the NFL season!

We used our quarterly Amex Rezy credit for our dinner. Had I paid the full $150 out of pocket I'd have been pretty disappointed. Before I spend that kind of money unless you're trying to impress a date of business associate I'd save my money and eat at that place with Texas in the name. For you anniversary you get a glass of champagne and for your birthday you get dessert. Maybe I'll try the Happy Hour. I did forget one thing. The Alex salad. At $14 it's a joke. I asked our server if the salad was large enough to share? It was but the menu says if you order the salad with an entree it's only $10. The waiter added the $14 salad because the $10 salad isn't enough to share. Also what kind of steak house doesn't have a wedge? Wedges are always enough to split. And many places have an option to split for a few dollars more. The cost of soups and salads is getting out of hand.
