    Butter & Salt Knot and cinnamon sugar Sweet Knot
    Haneen O.

    We were walking around the Gilbert Farmer's Market one Saturday and didn't realize they were closing up at noon. We were walking down the last aisle when a gal called out "buy one get one" pretzels. I was reeled in! What a deal. We decided to get their butter & salt plus their cinnamon sugar, a good combo of savory and sweet. It took a few minutes to make our pretzels and we got a nacho cheese dip thrown in. Friendly service as we chatted about their business and how I hadn't gotten a chance to try them yet. We enjoyed our pretzels! I liked how much cinnamon sugar there was, it was sweet but in a good way. The cheese dip was a nice accompaniment for the savory pretzel. I'm glad I got to try them at the market and if I'm in the area, I'd like to visit their brick & mortar store!

    Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel
    Ellie Z.

    My mother and I had heard so much about this place on social media that when we were at the Gilbert Famers Market one Saturday morning, we had to check it out. We were both hungry and cinnamon sugar lovers so we decided to order the cinnamon sugar pretzel. The woman taking our order was super friendly and helped us when the card reader wouldn't read my mom's chip in her card. We sat down at a table and dug into the pretzel. It was delicious, to say the least. It was thoroughly coated in sugar, but our only gripe was that we wished there was more cinnamon. Even though the entire pretzel was packed in sugar and cinnamon (and not much of it was falling off either), it looked like there were more white sugar particles than cinnamon particles. But oh well, it was still hot, incredibly soft, and packed with flavor. It was gone within a minute or two haha! Now, I want to try their other flavors and try out their cheese dipping sauce when I try a savory pretzel option.

    The house band!! So cute!!

    My wife and I stopped in for lunch today. She got the butter and salt pretzel, I had the pepperoni pizza pretzel, and we took a garlic and parmesean to go. All of the pretzels were fresh and flavorful!! They were firm on the outside but fluffy and warm on the inside with just the right amount of taste. We will definitely return!!

    Cute place! Just happened to be exploring on the street and came across this place and decided 'Pretzel? Sure!' We ordered a garlic pretzel with beer cheese dip and we were not disappointed. Came out fresh, hot, and delightful!

    Gluten Free Knot Flight was delish!!! I would recommend just sticking with the cheese, everything or sweet knots. The Italian was overwhelming but to be GF these are delish!!!!! My husband had the regular sugar cinnamon and he loved it.

    Walking along Main St. popping in and out of shops and eateries when we spotted The Salted Knot. What a darling spot, and so many choices of savory and sweet pretzels. Tina was so friendly and explained the options and gave us recommendations. You can tell this place is a local favorite as Tina knew everyone that walked through the door. We opted for the sugar and cinnamon along with a cream cheese dipping sauce...delish!

    We've been getting fed this shop through reels and my father so we decided to check it out finally after driving by it for a long time. The atmosphere is super cute and love the look of it. We got to meet the owner and she was super sweet and helped us along our salted knot journey. Loved that everything is made in house and their recipes too. I went with the flight o bites with the beer cheese and yall.... I couldn't get a pic fast enough because it was so good lol. That beer cheese will be the death of me... in a good way! It was all perfect. My husband got the butter and salt pretzel with a sweet cream dip which was perfect for for a salt and sweet combo. We def want to come back and try more options the had and more of the dips! Thanks again to the owner to making our experiment great!

    Pretzel very good and fresh, but a little small for $8.50. The included dip was beer cheese, but that was a bit watery. Need to get better AC inside store.

    I introduced my friend to The Salted Knot. She was thrilled to know about it. The owner and her husband were just returning to the building. Maria asked how we enjoyed everything. Awesome as usual. Such nice people! Visit them if you're in the area! Street patrols and parking in back of the building.

    I'm not usually one to get my panties in a knot, but I have done just that after stopping in at The Salty Knot! Serving the freshest pretzel you will ever have, this place will get your panties all knotted up too! Pun intended! Having started their business DURING COVID, when mom and pop shops were closing, owner/operators Maria and Chad decided to perfect the ultimate pretzel in their own kitchen. They have since branched out to a cute stand alone shop in downtown Mesa! Helping to revive the quaint Main Street of Mesa, service is great! Atmosphere is that funky, everyone is welcome feel. Whether you are looking for a unique sandwich or popping in for an afternoon snack (uh hum, guilty as charged), you will not be disappointed!

    We were just down the street at the Mesa Convention Center for a Scrapbooking Expo and my wife and I took her mom in for a treat after a long day on the convention center floor. Same great vibes in the place as when we were in for a Yelp event recently which introduced us to this great new spot in downtown Mesa. I mentioned to the young girl who helped us the previous time that we loved her dancing to the tunes in the place and she thanked us but seemed a little embarrassed. Having spoken with Maria and Chad, the owners, I knew this was exactly the type of employee they desired so I told her to keep on dancing. Then I jokingly turned to the young man who was cashiering and asked to see his dance moves - and he instantly gave us some Saturday Night Fever moves. We loved it !! There is just something wonderful about the entire place - from the staff, to the decor (Maria's music/concert photography), to the well thought out menu full of deliciousness, to the seating - both indoor and outdoor. We each ordered a pretzel and then we got an Apple Jackson Crisp in memory of the young man who recently lost his battle with cancer. I got the Jalapeno and Cheese, my wife got the Everything, we both went for the Maple Mustard (our favorite dip), and my mother-in-law got the Pizza one with nacho cheese. We all loved our choices and relaxed and ate with no rush at all. Just a fantastic way to hang out and unwind from our day. So glad we found this place through Yelp, and we cannot wait for more visits on our own and with more friends and family. The Salted Knot is helping to revitalize the downtown area. Definitely recommend you stop in and enjoy a pretzel yourself.

    Strolling in with my casual look of one of my favorite band tees, jeans, and vans to find out that you get a free soft serve ice cream for wearing a band tee (summer promotion). Rock on! Love that they do this since they have a concert goers vibe in their location. Speaking with one of their owners Maria I learned all the photography is from her! How cool! My Yelp Bestie Chelsey H. and I had tried this place for a Yelp event the day prior, and all we could think about was pretzels so I went back the next day for a to go order to bring to her house! As I'm writing this, I'm enjoying leftovers and craving to try more on their menu because who doesn't love a good pretzel?! And as someone who grew up with Bavarian pretzels and a bestie in Philly who showed me all the best pretzels back east, I am genuinely overjoyed to find a local Arizona shop to satisfy my pretzel cravings!! This trip, we tried this duo with dips: Butter & Salt ($7) with Beer Cheese dip Garlic Parmesan ($8) with Marinara dip These pretzels went on about a 35 minute drive to their destination, and they surprisingly stayed warm and so delicious! Though, they are definitely best enjoyed in the location if you can dine in. I can confidently say I'll be returning as I have to keep trying the various options. Current winner of my favorite is Butter & Salt + Beer Cheese as it is a timeless classic and absolute legend!

    Pepperoni pizza pretzel, add jalapeños
    Jennifer H.

    We try pretzels everywhere we go and were so excited to see their social media posts, plus they're in Mesa. We're close! I ordered the pretzel dog and the pepperoni pizza pretzel, I added jalapeños. My husband ordered the pepperoni pizza pretzel and a salted pretzel. Almost $50 The gal at the register was nice enough and we saw the owner outside talking to another customer. Thought she'd come over to talk to us as we were eating outside but she ignored us and went inside. We ate and left. No big deal. She's prob busy. Clean bathroom and clean, cute place. Pretzel dough is good but nothing unique- nacho cheese sauce tasted like it was from a can. Stone ground mustard was really good! Pepperoni and cheese was fine and the hot dog was good but nothing special. Don't know if we will go back but it was a nice place for a treat.

    So many choices.

I love that we can bring our dogs with us when we eat out. My friend ordered chicken for his dogs. I ordered a hamburger with steak fries and my friend ordered the same. The food was fast, the server was very nice and friendly, and our meal was delicious. I like that the servers are not afraid of dogs. We did get put on notice by a young lady who first came out to talk to us because we weren't aware we needed to take the dogs through the inside area first to be seated in the patio. So anyone reading this should go through the restaurant to be seated in the patio, if you have dogs. Uncle Best's is a pleasant place to eat with your furry friends. Thankfully, they thought of everything, from chicken for our pets, to ample shade on the patio. We both had a good time there and we will come back at some point. Overall, it was relaxing and there was very little noise, which kept his dogs calm. I recommend this restaurant if you're interested in bringing your furry friends along and the food will not disappoint!

You walk in and it really does feel like a lively bier garten. There's many sections, and most of it outdoors. The colors, furnishings, patio games, TVs, music, etc make it feel like a place you could relax for hours Their menu boasts an impressive 28 beers on tap (including imports). They also have a large variety of appetizers and other tasty dishes meals. These dishes are made from scratch and much of the cuisine is European inspired. You'll find a variety of brats, burgers, salads, etc. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. We could have easily have spent many more hours there but there was more of Scottsdale to see Some tips: We went in the spring and it was absolutely gorgeous outside. It's now summer hours and it looks like they're adjusting their schedule accordingly. They are closed Mondays and Tuesdays. The rest of the days they're open 12-9pm (they open an hour earlier Saturday and Sunday, and they close an hour early on Sunday) Our server was incredible gracious, attentive, and professional. She gave us recommendations for the area and also food/drink to try You can make reservations, but we just did a walk-in. I think this more applies to larger groups as they're able to accommodate that. They also accommodate private parties (see their website) There appears to be a trivia night every Wednesday at 7pm. There's Girls Night Out Friday specials from 3pm-close. Join the Stein Club (rewards program). Ask your server how to join Explore Old Town Scottsdale either before or after.

I am a HUGE fan on Brat Haus but this discrimination is unacceptable especially with heat as an excuse on a water cooled patio bc of my invisible disability. EDIT: I have changed my 1 star to a 4 star review as I genuinely appreciate the owner's fair explanation/ accountability and do not want to inhibit this genuinely awesome restaurant from succeeding. I love my dog and I want him safe as well... but yes, this experience was NOT ideal. There were many shaded, misted patio areas with wet floors spots as it was a watery event. He would have been comfortable and safe on the ground, not in lap, if seated appropriately. There was not a large crowd for this event and therefore a LOT of room to accommodate. That said, from prior visits, I recommend the beer "Fin du Monde"

For me, it was a big hike up to the north side- but totally worth the haul! I grew up in the Midwest, occasionally going to one or two German restaurant/ clubs, so this was not an unfamiliar atmosphere to me. It is definitely a "seasoned" vibe, having immediately taken over the space by a former western bar/beer hall that had been in existence for 50+ years. Their menu says "German and Hungarian" but all I read was German. They have a solid European beer selection, including taps and bottles and some cocktails with a German twist. The one that threw me for a loop (in the best way) was Kriek! So ofc I got a pint. We shared a (fairly large) pretzel to start, which comes with beer cheese. Tasty, but I was genuinely shocked there was no mustard. I ordered the jagerschnitzel (pork) and just overall the meal was as expected as if I was in the Midwest - amazing, delicious, insert chef's kiss. I wish I could have joined the clean plate club. The cucumber salad was flavorful and not too sour/pickley. My friend and I both noted how umami the savory sauce was- not too bacon, not too mushroom. The potatoes were not too salty or under-seasoned. Literally willing to drive up again if/when someone tells me to go. It wasn't horribly busy so it didn't take forever to order and get everything we needed. Our server was super nice and patient. She even gave a bar suggestion that ended up being a nice cherry for the top of the evening.

The next thing I knew most of the mall knew I had helped myself to a small empty pretzel bag without asking. When I asked why the display was out if customers were not to take them, Mr. Auntie Anne asked if I knew how to ask for items, rather than just taking them. When I asked to speak to the manager, he informed me (and most of the mall) that he was the owner of the business and I could lodge a complaint over his cell phone. When I asked for his cell number and name, he refused to give it to me. The line upstairs at Wetzel's Pretzels was long, but apparently other customers have previously been embarrassed by Mr Auntie Anne's attitude and were willing to wait for an order. My advice is to avoid Mr. Auntie Anne'a at Chandler Mall and to patronize Wetzel's, who I am sure, are trained to treat customers with respect. And a final note to Big Dude Mr. Auntie Anne, you will do well in the business world to understand that customers always remember how you made them feel - belittled and embarrassed doesn't equate with return customers.
