Their bar selection is vast with tons of beers on tap and various bottles/cans available. While it is always pretty busy, there's always a spot to sit, and the service staff is on top of their game. The location has two floors, an upstairs bar and downstairs, and pool tables/dart boards on each level as well. The vibe is very cool, with plants and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. If you want more of a dark and mysterious vibe, head upstairs. If you like it a little more spacious, downstairs is your place! If you haven't had a pasty before, you are missing out on an exquisite dining experience. Whether you use a fork and knife or eat it as a proper hand pie, you'll love it. I am particularly fond of the chicken pot pie.

I had a really disappointing experience here. My cousin asked for a glass of water, and it appeared…read moreto have what looked like a shard of glass in it. When she politely asked what it was, the employee immediately got defensive instead of addressing the concern. Any customer would be alarmed if they thought there was glass in their drink. She asked to speak with a manager, and he dismissed the concern by saying it was "nothing to be scared of." When he returned with another glass of water, he slammed it down in front of her and claimed he was the manager. Moments later, another employee came over saying he was actually the manager and that the first employee was just a barback, but he was just as rude and unprofessional. To top it all off, as we were leaving, staff flipped us off. We've never experienced such disrespect from employees over a simple and reasonable question about something that appeared to be in a drink. Mistakes happen, but the way customers are treated is what matters. The hostility, lack of professionalism, and complete disregard for a legitimate safety concern made this an experience we won't be repeating.

I added avocados on top so definitely amazing

There was a game & the area for parking & the restaurant was packed. We were greeted by pleasant hostess. We were told 15 minutes wait. I'm not sure how long it was, but it wasn't long. While we were waiting someone came & asked all of us waiting if we wanted a drink. Hubby & I ordered drinks. He brought them right as we were being seated. Hubby got his favorite beer & on draft which is his favorite. It was so good & really cold. I got Tito's & cranberry. It was good as well. Our server came to the table promptly. Hubby ordered the power bowl. I ordered the smash burger. Hubby loved his power bowl. It was huge & full of food. I thought I took a picture, but it didn't come through to my phone. My smash burger was so good. I don't know what they do, but it was moist & flavorful! It is loud, but it outstanding service & excellent food. Even if my phone took 2 fuzzy pictures & didn't get 1. I only wish they were closer!

It's a really cute little spot in downtown Phoenix with a full bar and a counter that looks put into the street with window that open in comfy weather. There are some great photo murals and a fantastic order room ceiling We ordered a Wasabi Caesar Salad and a pepperoni pizza to share. Neither of us really tasted the wasabi, but agreed if was a good Caesar. The pizza was sooooo good. They really pack on the pepperoni, and the crust is phenomenal. In fact, it's the reason I like the Desmond so much--that pizza crust! I was passing the guy making pizzas, and stopped to watch him tossing the crust. He was so nice and friendly and kind enough to tell me about pizza tossing. He made it look so easy and fun. What a fantastic young man! He made my visit to the Desmond even better! There is so much to like at The Desmond, and I'm sure we will keep coming back.

I wouldn't go here if you're short on time. I went with a friend a couple of days ago and after…read morebeing seated, we had to wait a while for someone on staff to come over and take our food order. We each ordered a pizza but they took almost 45 minutes to arrive, my friend had a simple pepperoni while I had the truffle. The pizzas were ok but at $21 each they weren't worth the wait. When the bill was brought to our table I asked for it to be split by person since my friend an I were paying separately but the staff member split the bill in half so I ended up having to partially pay for my friend's drinks (they ordered something while we were waiting for the pizzas). It's not a big deal but the staff member was like "ok sure" and promptly ignored my request. There was also a 3% credit card surcharge so that was kind of annoying. I left a small tip but that was being generous. I wanted to go to the pub mextdoor but my friend convinced me that we should go here instead. I won't be making a return visit.

The service we received was outstanding - and very timely, knowledgable, patient. The food was quite good for the most part. The two chicken recipes we tried were fantastic - crispy, flavoured and incredibly juicy! The only strats I didn't love were the sides: the sprouts were cooked to perfection but they were a bit plain and needed a little something on the side and the macaroni and cheese was a let down, it was definitely a little under cheesy.

I visited twice, back-to-back days, and the contrast was striking enough to warrant documenting…read moreboth experiences. Visit 1 (Breakfast): The experience got off to a rough start. I waited about 12 minutes to be seated, even though no one was ahead of me, while two people who arrived after me were seated first. Once at my table, my server walked past me three times without acknowledgment; it took nearly 8 minutes to get water. When my food came out, I noticed my white toast had been swapped for some odd-looking wheat bread with no explanation. I only found out they didn't carry white toast by asking. No manager stopped by, and communication from the front-of-house staff was nearly nonexistent from start to finish. The one bright spot was that the food itself was genuinely good. Visit 2 (Next Day): A completely different experience. The restaurant was actually busier, yet the hostess was immediately attentive and got me seated without delay. My server, Josh, came right over, was personable, and proactively let me know they don't carry white toast, offering sourdough as an alternative without me having to ask. I also had the chance to chat with Erin, the banquet manager, who brought a warm and welcoming energy to the floor. That kind of manager presence was completely absent on day one and made a noticeable difference. Bottom line: The kitchen is solid, both visits confirmed that. But the guest experience here can vary wildly depending on who's working. When the team is on, this place shines. Here's hoping Visit 2 is the new standard.
