    Club sandwich w/fries
    Greg P.

    My lady and I were on an errand up in Scottsdale and decided to pop in for an early lunch and to say hi to owner Reggie. My lady enjoyed the homemade quiche so much on a prior visit, she ordered it again and thoroughly enjoyed it as much as the first time. I had my usual club sandwich, but this time Reggie served it with battered fries which were hot, crispy and very good! Had another great experience at Temptations Cafe, thanks Reggie!

    Country fried steak
    Pete S.

    Pleasantly surprised at this diner. We chose this location not only because it was close to our hotel but they serve country fried steak and corn beef hash. Let me tell ya, both did not disappoint. Both came out just slightly crispy on the outside and the portion sizes were perfect. Their home style potatoes were also just slightly crispy too. We had a large group and they were able to sort the tables inside to fit our party of 10. I would say maybe the inside could fit 30 which includes the counter seating. They also have an outdoor patio. We ordered some drinks but they recommended us the Coffee Jelly. Think of a Boba drink but with iced coffee and coffee like jelly. To pair with that, they make these Silvanas, a cashew meringue cookie with buttercream in the middle. It was delicious. Reggie, the owner was classically trained in Europe and all of his desserts was made in house. Let me tell ya, he was super friendly and we chatted a bit. I was given a slice of his pumpkin cheesecake. OM Gee , so good and so light! There is a UBE flan on the menu for pre-order. I would've totally gotten that if I was staying the week! So to sum, excellent service and wonderful desserts with classic diner food made perfectly. They have a outside patio seating as well and parking is on the shared lot. Will be back when I'm in town again!

    French Toast

    Good spot no wait when we went. Very small but can tell it's mostly locals which we loved. My wife and I ordered breakfast and it was good just wish the bacon was better and they came around more for coffee refills besides that amazing ambiance, great people, great atmosphere.

    Scotch Eggs, delicious!
    Justine S.

    Unbelievably good, cooked perfectly. Very crispy hash browns, tasty and tender pork chops and the Scotch eggs and cheesecake and silbanas were absolutely delicious. Save room for dessert. Great friendly service too!

    Avocado scramble

    This place is so welcoming. The owners are amazing individuals. We don't come here as often as we'd like because we live so far, but when we do make the journey, Temptations Cafe never disappoints! From the decor, to the ambiance, the food, and the conversation. Their desserts are my favorite! All baked in-house from scratch and super fresh! My favorites from here are the carrot and ginger soup, ube flan, and the tuna melt. Also, the chai latte and iced pecan latte are EPIC. This place makes you feel at home. 5 stars, well deserved! Note: This is a small diner. If you plan to sit in here for long with just coffee, it's probably wise to be mindful of the establishment and not take up seats for those that are dining in. Just food for thought. ‍

    This hidden cafe is a true gem. An American cafe with Euro Asian influence. The food is incredible, it's like fine dining restaurant quality of food with a tiny cafe feel and pricing. This is one of those restaurants that you have to love. Mom and pops shop but outstanding food and even better people! The first ever SYLVANA I've experienced and wow it was life changing. It's now a necessity! The chicken a la pobre was magical and the scotch eggs... I can't even explain it was so good.

    Loved this place! What a gem! Service was great, and food was amazing. Worth coming on Sundays to have their Philipino breakfast special. Excellent experience. I'll be back again.

    Cassandra M.

    We enjoyed ourselves here. Very welcoming and friendly. The food was yummy! The silvanas dessert was delicious!

    Country Breakfast

    Hands down best coffee in the city! The food was amazing, and the service was top notch. Check out their authentic Filipino pastries while you're there!

I typed in my number for rewards, and the barista the noted that it looked that the email associated with my account was their email.. she had me re-enter and all seemed well. I got my number and waited for my food on the quiet patio on a work call. The barista came out with the take away bag, and over my phone call asked me if I had a few minutes to talk to her.. I indicated it was a work call and she was not dissuaded from the interruption so I disconnected my call . She said that something was weird with my account and now she knows why.. and represented that she was a member of the management team and then went item by item to address my previous review. This seems like an inappropriate use of my information - certainly outside of the context that I provided it to them. That notwithstanding, I would like to correct my previous review to avoid additional confrontation at the coffee shop closest to where I live: They have a lot of employees that are college students who have finals right now. They refunded my two drinks that took over an hour to serve at my last experience. They have a QR code/square site (pictured) to order directly from them and there is no additional charge or up charge for this. This was a mistake in my previous review - I was being directed to door dash. I am uncomfortable returning after this, however I do appreciate the opportunity to correct my mistake and to continue sharing my honest experience with fellow yelpers.

I had their regular cold brew with a splash of cream and a Sunrise Sandwich- both were so good! The cold brew had a lovely aftertaste that in my opinion, reminded me of dark chocolate and whiskey. Service was also fantastic- the lovely barista was thorough in her explanations of each cold coffee option to help me find what I was looking for! My sandwich was also lovely- the Sunrise Sandwich on an Everything Bagel is easily my favorite breakfast sandwich in Tempe. The Basil Pesto adds a bit of freshness to an otherwise very rich sandwich. Also stopped in a few more times on my evening walks for a Lavender Haze (seasonal earl grey sage honey drink: EXCELLENT!) and their seasonal energy drink- it was a Sunset Spritz (energy with grapefruit pink cordial): both delicious. Happy to say service has improved greatly. Employees are on task and happy to answer my questions. The drinks on the seasonal menu are very good, and their classics are also great. If you're going to go soon, I'm a big fan of the Sage honey and a big fan of the cordial syrup on the 2026 Spring Menu. Will definitely be hitting Infusion up for some future study sessions.
