    We stumbled across this place while visiting AZ, and it turned out to be the perfect spot to link up before or after dinner. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, and you could tell they were very knowledgeable about the drinks--how they're crafted and the fact that they only use fresh ingredients. The décor is beautiful and elegant, giving the space an upscale vibe. Definitely a bar to put on your list! The food was just ok but cocktails were superior

    The Rose Garden is most definitely aesthetically pleasing. The decor is so pretty. This is good for both date night and girls night out. Chad was friendly when we stepped foot in the RG. My bartender was nice as well. I forgot her name but she had glasses. She made me a drink that was a cross between an Old Fashioned and Espresso Martini which was good! I also had the Espresso Amore which was delicious. My cousin had the Love Island and she enjoyed it as well. We also had the Garden Tea shots. They were great also. The bartenders didn't skimp on the alcohol at all! My type of vibe. If ever back in Phoenix, I'd return!

    Awesome! A group of us girls met for HH! We enjoyed it!! The bartenders were amazing! Street and garage parking available.

    Blush and Burn, and Harvest Essence.

    We saw that this bar had some really good reviews as we were bar hoping through downtown so decided to give it a try. We didn't realize this place closed at midnight so when we got there at 11:45 we were wondering why it was so empty. The bartender was nice enough to just give us a heads up that it was last call but happily took our order. Being a big fan of tequila and mezcal we went with the Blush and Burn and the Harvest essence. What we received in front of us after ordering was a beautifully crafted cocktail, in very cool glasses that we really liked, and delicious to boot. I was worried the habanero tequila would overpower the Blush and Burn but that was not the case at all. The cocktail had a delicious spicy kick to it while having refreshing cooling effect from the grapefruit soda and sweetness from the strawberry habanero syrup. The Harvest Essence was also such a good mezcal cocktail and enjoyed the sip I got from my wife. Overall the bar has really good decor and cool vibe even with it just being us in there. To top it off the bartender, Marissa, was very friendly and chatted it up with us as we enjoyed our cocktails past the bar closing time. This is definitely a place I want to visit again before we leave.

    Ricotta that has been blessed with everything good

    The ricotta!? Good lord that dish was phenomenal. The drinks i unfortunately don't remember the names but my partner and i absolutely loved our drinks and will be excited to come back to do this all over again. I love a sparkling moment so that pink drink was a nice surprise. The bartenders were amazing and the atmosphere was quiet and nice to engage in conversation. I give this a 10/10

    This downtown Phoenix place has a great ambiance. Our server told us the story about Rose Garden and a peacock competing for the attention of being the most beautiful. That explains all of the roses and peacocks in the decor. There is even a stuffed peacock in the center of the room hanging from the ceiling surrounded by fringed lights. The bar has one side in the building and one side on the patio, and there is a rather large patio outside on 1st avenue. When you enter the bar from the building, as opposed to the patio, you're given a rose - - a very nice touch! We had a great server who took the time to help with the menu and tell us the story of Penrose the peacock. We arrived during happy hour which had great deals on classic cocktails, but we decided to order off the specialty menu. We got: *Take a Stroll--a fruity tequila an aperol cocktail *Voyage of Penrose--a tropical rum drink served in a peacock cup *Golden Harvest Charcuterie *XXXtra Spicy Pala Flatbread Cocktails were top notch. I really loved with a capital L the Take a Stroll! The flatbread was really, really small for $18, and tasted mediocre at best. But no worry because the Golden Harvest Charcuterie made up for it. It was huge and had a great combination of meats and cheeses. I'm not sure if I'll race back, but it's a decent option if you're in the area.

    Visited the Rose Garden last night for cocktails and had a great time. I love how they specialize in making different drinks. The place is decorated very nice with floral inspired decor. It gives that moody floral glam vibe. This is a great place to visit if your looking for great cocktails. The staff are friendly as well.

    Take a stroll

    The ambiance here is serene and really does feel like a garden party. I enjoy both the indoor and outdoor bar when the weather is nice. The drinks are pleasant, if pricey. The same can be said for the food- pricey and small portions but good quality. The biggest drawback is the high turnover of bartenders. It seems like the staff has been generally disgruntled with management since they opened. I don't think I've ever had the same bartender twice. If they reduce their prices to make them more reasonable and treat their staff well, this could easily be a 5 star cocktail bar. If you do go- I'd recommend the ricotta dip and Voyage of Pemrose cocktail. Be aware- they don't offer food in the summer. Pretty crazy, right? I'd appreciate if they had their full menu year round. No other cocktail bar downtown reduces the menu for the summer.

    We really enjoyed this bar. We arrived within an hour of closing and Marissa was super nice to us. She made us some delicious drinks. The place is beautiful perfect for Instagram pictures. We really wanted to come back before leaving town, but we couldn't. It is definitely on our list of places to visit in downtown Phoenix.

    If you're looking for the perfect night out, look no further than the Rose Garden Cocktail Lounge--and make sure Haneen is your server! She's not just amazing at what she does; she is the experience. From the moment we arrived, the lounge's romantic, floral atmosphere set the tone--soft lighting, cozy seating, and elegant details everywhere. But the real magic started when Haneen greeted us with the warmest smile. She's effortlessly charming, attentive without hovering, and has an intuitive sense for timing. It felt like she could read the table's vibe perfectly. She guided us through the cocktail menu with genuine excitement and nailed every recommendation. Her passion for the craft and the customer experience shows in every detail. We also ordered the cannoli, and WOW--beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Haneen hyped them up, and she was so right. Creamy, delicate, and the perfect sweet finish. Haneen is a true gem. She turned a simple night out into something special. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server, you're in for a treat. Rose Garden, you've got a star on your hands!

    My group and I came here after Harumi and we were seated right away. At the time, there was only a table of two in there. The entrance and interior is really pretty. I've been here once before about 2 years ago and remembered liking the drinks last time. They have some small bites on their menu but if you're super hungry and looking for something more filling, maybe eat somewhere else first. Our orders: Terminus $20 - a creamy, tropical flavored drink. The banana flavor was a bit strong but still good overall! I tend to choose the drink with coconut milk. Harvest Essence $17 - a smoky mezcal drink. My friend said it was good Take a Stroll x2 $15 - light and refreshing. They loved it Tequila Blanco w/ Sprite $14 - one friend switched to her usual for her 2nd round drink Nice vibe and ambiance. Bartender was nice and attentive. Great place for a date night or girls night out!

    paint and sip
    Emily P.

    Haven't been to the Rose Garden in years, but I saw an instagram ad for a paint and sip so we decided to go! They have canvases, paints, brushes, and sponges at the front table, and you can grab whatever you'd like to paint. It is not one of those events where someone walks you through what to pain, so you have full creative freedom. There's no additional cost to paint, but in order to participate, you have to order two items which is quite easy to do considering it's a paint and sip. So you and a friend with one drink each easily covers that requirement. There was only one server/bartender/all of the above working that afternoon and I felt for him after learning he had just started and was left alone to run the place with this event going on. An hour~ish later, another employee showed up and then people were then able to order food, but by that point we were wrapping up our painting and had already set sights for another establishment to procure some food.

Carry On actually called me to confirm our "tickets," which I thought was really cute. The whole experience kind of started a couple of days before our actual "departure time." They also reminded us to park in the Renaissance Square parking garage under Wren & Wolf, and they were able to validate our parking for three hours. We had to go to Wren & Wolf first to pick up our Carry On tickets. We got there early, and they let us relax in their couch area while we waited for our departure time. The walk from the Renaissance Square parking garage to Wren & Wolf was easy. You just follow the signs, and the whole walk is inside the building, which was perfect because it was so hot outside. While we were waiting, we could order drinks and chill, just like being in an airport lounge. When it was time for departure, we walked outside the building, and Carry On was right around the corner. You won't miss it because you'll see the Carry On Air flight schedule above the gate door. Right on time, we were greeted by a friendly flight attendant. Once we walked into the cabin, it really felt like we were inside a first-class flight lounge. Our flight attendant served us drinks right after we sat down, and we also ordered more cocktails and snacks from their menu. The captain spoke to us over the speaker, just like on a real flight. As we took off, we could even feel the seats moving. Looking out the "window," we saw buildings, clouds surrounding us, and even experienced turbulence I'm not going to tell you too much because I don't want to ruin the experience. I'll let you try it for yourself. I think it's definitely worth giving it a try. At least for us, we loved it.

It was busy, but not packed, which made the service stand out more than it should have. I had to ask for water twice, never got a refill, and overall felt largely ignored--minimal eye contact, no real warmth, just an impersonal feel that didn't match the space. It felt like a place that may be a bit of a victim of its own success--popularity has grown, but delivery hasn't fully kept pace. Part of the appeal here is the permanent taco truck outside, which I know from past visits is excellent, and I love the truck's outspoken, unapologetic support for immigrants. That said, the cocktail itself was excellent. I was specifically looking for a coffee-based drink before heading to another event, and the Cambures al Estilo Foster delivered on flavor. It was tiny, though--served in a small stemmed glass, gone in a few sips. It did the job, but some may find the portion underwhelming for the price. No major complaints, but nothing pulling me back either. I'm adding a fourth star on a bit of a hunch--I'd like to think they can dial it back in if I return.

Main level/Upstairs vibe is well-lit with a true cantina bar feel. High-top tables, seats at the bar & happy hour from 4-7 pm make it ideal for some $7 drinks!!. The collection of Tequilas is GREAT. Many of which do not contain additives. I won't lie, I thought I was a big fan until I realized I didn't recognize a lot of the tequilas they had on hand. Downstairs is a whole different vibe. Custom craft cocktails, dim lighting with artwork, and more make it feel like an upscale NYC spot in your basement. I did 2 of my favorites, Paloma De Guayaba with the custom block name etched and the Baya Nueva. While in the Cantina, I had to order my friend the Basura (trash), but that wasn't the case... then again, it is served in a plastic bag, and is definitely a throwback to my early 20's of gettin' lit!!!! Always look forward to sharing this place with friends visiting and connecting with those locally.

But, if you're looking for a really cool bar, KWSC is for you. I stopped by on a week day evening around 8:30 p.m. Located in Roosevelt Row, while there isn't parking, I found free parking on the street a few minutes away on foot. Ambiance (4.5/5): My type of spot. Dimly lit with a speakeasy vibe. There are eight or so seats at the bar, and the rest of your seating options consist of comfortable chairs and sofas. You'll see a lot of photos of people's bums on the walls lol. This is indeed part of the appeal. For free, if you would like, they will take a polaroid of your butt and memorialize you eternally on the walls. While I didn't do that, if that's up your alley, go for it. Service (2/5): This is the main area of improvement. After being seated, I was greeted promptly and got my first cocktail promptly. From there, things fell apart. I had to grab the bartender's attention to order my second drink and to close out. It was a week day and they weren't busy. And there were two bartenders. A lack of attentiveness. When I closed out, I noticed that the cocktails were both $2 more expensive than what was listed on the menu. When I inquired, I was told that the menus were outdated... umm what? If you're not going to re-print your menus, give people a heads-up when they arrive. I understand that most people won't notice, but this is deception. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet. If you're trying to eat here, all they have is snacks. The menu doesn't specify but I'm thinking it's probably chips or somethign like that. Drinks (4/5): A lengthy, and interesting, cocktail list. Similar to a speakeasy, you're going to see creativity and an interesting blend of flavors here. The most popular drink is Fuck Nazis. We're seeing a theme here. KWSC is an interesting spot. For various dollar amounts, you can get funny things outside of the polaroids of your bum. My first cocktail was great. My second one, a tiki drink, not so much. The menu said that there would be some flame action happening. It didn't. Just another example of the service falling short. If the service were better, Killer Whale Sex Club would easily be a five-star experience.

It became my go-to spot to bring friends from out of town and every single person I brought absolutely loved it! Back then, the cocktails felt intentional and creative, not just rushed out for volume. The staff remembered regulars, conversations flowed naturally, and the whole place had this warm, eclectic energy that made you want to stay for hours. Even on busy nights, it somehow still felt personal. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, the vibe has changed quite a bit. The drinks just aren't as consistently good as they used to be, especially considering the prices now. Service feels far more transactional and impersonal, and the atmosphere that once made this place stand out has faded into something much more generic. It feels less like a neighborhood gem and more like a stop on a nightlife circuit.
