The service there has always been great since they hired the old-timer. He has always been pleasant, efficient and helpful with menu choices. Our to-go lunches came out in about 8 mins, hot, ready and plentiful. I don't understand how other reviewers found the meats to be dry. I tried the brisket, pulled pork, roasted chicken and hot link and all were savory, moist and seasoned well. The brisket was pull apart, the mountain of pork was great, the moist chicken was excellent and the hot link was snappy and moist. The sides were all amazing as well.

The food is worth it. He still has the bbq meats as well.

We found some street parking, after leaving the airport and walked into The Kettle Black Kitchen and Pub. The food was incredible and the service was great - the two best things you can hope for. We LOVED the poutine as our appetizer. It was delicious! Ice cold beer and crispy salad made our lunch even better!

My wife and I went to an event at the science center and wanted a new place to eat for us. Based on…read morethe photos on their website we decided to try Kettle Black. Keep in mind this was 6 pm on a Sunday night so probably was the reason there was only one other person in the restaurant. We were a little concerned but we stayed anyway based on the photos. Our waiter was super friendly and took our order right away. My wife wanted the Steak salad and I opted for the Rueben with fries. My wife loved her steak salad, the steak was tender and had great flavor. My Rueben was good, a little dry but still good. The reason for the 4 was my draft beer tasted stale, which I'm guessing their lines are dirty or the keg was old. Also the water tasted like well water. We will definitely give them another try when we are back in the area. Service was great.

From the hostess, to our server, to every single staff member we interacted with, everyone was incredibly pleasant, welcoming, and attentive. The service really stood out and made our anniversary dinner feel that much more special. We also got to try the caviar, which was incredible! The food was amazing, the drinks were great, and the ambiance was honestly about as perfect as it could be. Everything came together to make it such a memorable night for the three of us. We left so happy with our experience and will absolutely be adding this place to our list of restaurants to return to. Highly recommend!

The taxidermy, rich materials, and striking design give it an incredible, moody atmosphere that stands completely apart from the standard downtown lunch spot.  The staff was professional, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly.

Great spot if you want an elevated midday meal in a truly unique setting.

Wow, I was very impressed with this place!…read more What really stood out to me was the quality of the ingredients and how everything is made in-house. They clearly don't cut corners when it comes to quality. From their corned beef to their smoked pork to their homemade salsa, mashed potatoes and gravy, every item tasted fresh and made with premium ingredients. You can tell they take pride in making their food from scratch rather than using cheap or pre-made ingredients, and it really shows in the taste. The service was great as well. Even during a rush, I was still attended to and taken care of. Great food, premium ingredients, and everything made in-house. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to.

After walking by this place for forever when taking the light rail to work and hearing how…read morewonderful it was, I finally stopped by. Casa shares Lobby space with the Luhrs Building, an amazing piece of PHx history. Great bathrooms and vintage lobby. I LOVE the Moxie and the inside of Casa did not disappoint. What a pretty setting. The small outside area reminded me of Queens NY places of memory with alley dining. It was too hot to sit out there today, but next time. I came at an off time so had the whole place to myself. I was also warned this is a pricey place and not your typical Mexican restaurant but more authentic and high end. Agree, No chips and salsa here. I ordered the Julia's Tacos. It was not what I expected. I was concerned at first because the first bite had a slight Chipotle taste and I am not a fan. But I realized the tacos were amazingly delish. Messy but good. lol Okay, the portions are small, high quality, and the place is pricey so not a place to go if you like large dishes of American style Tex Mex. I can see this place would not be for everyone with their smaller more authentic plates but it was great for me. The Menu does have a smaller amount of choices. The drink menu looked amazing. I DID not indulge but guessing lots of drinks get served here. I want to come back and try their Truffle fries. Also,chuckling at some of the other reviews. Who goes to DT and does not expect to pay for parking? You can take the Lightrail for 2 bucks one as a senior. Also, Citiscape is sketchy? The Moxie is a GORGEOUS vintage building and the area is just fine. Glad to hear they have live music, definitely coming back.

We had a party of 15 at Casa de Julia on August 16 and spent over $400. Unfortunately, the overall…read moreexperience was disappointing, and the follow-up customer service left an even worse impression. When I called ahead to make arrangements for our group, I was told that parking at CityScape would be validated. Based on that information, we arranged for our group to park there. What was not communicated to us was that the validation only covered one hour. By the time we left, our party had four cars and our guests had to pay an additional $40 in parking. The restaurant's Executive Chef later acknowledged in writing that the one-hour limit was not clearly communicated to us on the phone and apologized, even saying they were changing their reservation team's process so the limit would be stated on every call going forward. However, they refused to reimburse the $40 parking expense. Our parking issue also wasn't the only problem. Two members of our party waited approximately 45 minutes for their meals, food came out in waves, and my husband's burger was extremely salty. We were there for a family celebration and chose not to turn the evening into a confrontation by constantly complaining at the table. We simply tried to enjoy our time together. We appreciated the initial apology and acknowledgment of the issues. However, when we declined the offer of complimentary appetizers on a future visit because we had no intention of returning and don't typically order appetizers anyway, the tone of the final response became noticeably defensive. We were told that our reservation policies were available on OpenTable and that our reservation was made and confirmed there, despite the fact that we made our reservation arrangements over the phone. The only link we received afterward was to add a card to the reservation. For a party of 15 that spent over $400, I don't think asking for reimbursement of the $40 parking expense--especially after the restaurant acknowledged the parking policy was not properly communicated--was unreasonable. Instead of simply accepting responsibility for the communication issue, the final response focused on defending the restaurant, shifting blame, and ultimately stating that they "consider the matter closed." I've attached screenshots of the email exchange so people can see the full conversation and decide for themselves. We won't be returning. This review is simply an honest account of our experience and hopefully helps future guests make informed decisions.

Chef Leo is almost always on site, and today was no exception. The air conditioned indoor seating area was bustling. Chef Leo still made the time to speak with every one of us in the room. I cannot say enough good things about out the restaurant, the food, and especially the people. Waiting for the brick and mortar to reopen hasn't been too bad since I can still come here and get everything that makes for a fantastic experience. I'm f you've never been you should go and if you've been, but not to the truck, give it a try. I think you'll be as happy as I am that I came by. Enjoy!

We tried quite a bit of food, but somehow didn't leave feeling heavy or overly full, which honestly says a lot about how fresh everything is and how it's prepared. It's definitely not fancy design-wise, at least not yet. It looks like they may still be finishing or building out the new restaurant. But that really didn't matter once the food came out. Fresh ingredients, great flavors, and the whole meal felt like getting a little taste of Mexico right here in Arizona. We'll definitely be back
