    Tartar sauce and hot sauce and fried catfish and Mac and cheese and rolls
    Abby B.

    Came in late night after a movie date and my date took me here... it was very romantic and the music was amazing and my server tre did a fantastic job at serving me, I didn't feel bothered or interrupted, and yet he was still able to make sure I had everything I needed, food was amazing I just had a long day and this was exactly what I needed. Food was amazing vibes were phenomenal I love this place 10000 out of 10 I will definitely be coming here again.

    Collard greens

    I tried Twin Locos Kitchen for the first time shortly after they opened over the summer and this spot feels reminiscent of the Midwest. On my visit I ordered the 2-piece Fried Catfish with a side of collard greens, and let me tell you, I'd absolutely get it again (and did). Next time, I'll ask for the catfish to be fried hard (and did, but I don't think they fried it hard), just how I like it. Still, it was flavorful and satisfying. The collard greens had a surprise spicy kick (not listed on the menu), and I was so here for it. The whole meal tasted like my family was in the kitchen cooking, comforting, soulful, and made with care. Service was top-notch. The twins were incredibly attentive and accommodating, which made the experience even better. I'll be back soon (and did). Twin Locos is serving up love on a plate.

    My sister and I saw this place while in the area. We checked for reviews, but didn't see any pics here on yelpy, so we thought we'd check it out. We learned this restaurant recently opened and is ran by two brothers, The Twins, who are really cool. One greeted us upon entry. The other came by after we were seated. One brought us water and took our order and the other brought us our food. The menu has a variety of choices...wings, sandwiches, burgers, pizza/flatbread, seafood, mac sides, nachos, desserts, breakfast, and drink. I tried the catfish and fries, which was very tastey. The food was cooked fresh and the catfish was catfish which is always a plus in my book. Portions and prices matched for what I ordered. The ambiance was nice with the tunes playing in the background while enjoying my meal. The women's restroom was tidy and dining area was clean. With great service, good food, and extended hours of operation the Twins should have much success.

    The best catfish in the valley! I have been here several times and always impressed with the two brothers that do it ALL. The atmosphere is top notch and you are made to feel like family. Did I say the food is fantastic? Well, it is along with great service. This is a great place to have a get together with family and friends.

    Yall when I say come get you some! You best come get some of this good food. We live nearby and have been in and out of frys that I said we are gonna try them today! And this was not a disappointment. Tried the Greens so good but a bit salty. Their burgers omg delicious I had the spicy burger and I ate it all and yall know Zee eats like a bird! They were so kind and greet you when you walk in granted it wasn't busy but it didn't stop them from going out of their way however they could. It's a big space nice and clean attached next to frys but your family will fit and they offer outside dinning. The food is good! I'll check this ova later I have to get to another one !!

    This is what you will get if u get the lemon pepper wings and seasoned fries they are both the bomb
    Tony Y.

    This place is amazing the food here is soo freaking good I recommend you getting the lemon pepper wings

    Nachos, tenders, fries
    Shannon B.

    Service was great and amazing to have somewhere new open late here in Tempe! The flavor of the fries and tenders were well seasoned and delicious. The mango habanero sauce was some of the best I've ever had! My only complaint was although I appreciated the nachos came separated to not get soggy, they were quite expensive for a gas station styled nachos ($10 for nachos just chips and cheese plus $1 for jalapeños) and the chips themselves were very stale. I would definitely go back for everything else, I think in a town with amazing nachos they should either step up their game or lower the price. Either way highly recommend!

    Catfish

    Best Catfish in Arizona.... Love the vibes in this place great music and the owners are super friendly and actively trying to greet everyone and make sure they are satisfied. And their open til 4am. This is a great small business to support in Tempe area.

I…read moreunderstand the changes of seasonal menu but I just seem like the recent menu had no main concept. My boyfriend got the pizza and it tasted as if it were a frozen pizza. I got the bang bang shrimp and it was good (6/10). The problem that I have is the pistachio gin fizz was an absolute no! I am a HUGE fan of pistachio and gin so immediately I had to get his drink but it was beyond mediocre. Are we drinking only syrup??? My last complaint is the coconut tres leches dessert.... Do we actually know how to make tres leches or we just naming desserts however we want? Just curious. It came out super hot, steaming more like a molten cake. As a Hispanic woman, I was expecting a creamy moist cake to celebrate my graduation but this was not it as well. Last but not least if the bald manager with the orange shirt wants to eat in the back of the kitchen, not the problem I get it (I work at restaurants) HOWEVER shoving your two index fingers into your mouth to get your debris out was my last straw. Like I said I like this restaurant and never had problems but today felt like a fever dream there.

While the ambience is fairly simple, the overall experience is a positive one, especially once the food arrives. I ordered the lox and bagel and was impressed by how substantial the portion was. The lox was generously layered, with a large amount of arugula on top. The arugula appeared to be lightly dressed with olive oil, which added great flavor. While it did not fully align with my personal dietary preferences, it was well executed, and I would be happy to return to see if it can be adjusted. The dirty chai was another highlight in terms of flavor. It was well spiced and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Although it was described as very hot when delivered, it arrived closer to lukewarm, but the taste itself was enjoyable. Service was efficient and attentive. The check was dropped off relatively early, which initially felt a bit quick, but our server continued to check in on us throughout the meal, creating a balanced and courteous experience. The fresh squeezed orange juice was excellent, and everything we ordered was well prepared. Parking in the area can be challenging, though the nearby parking structure behind Pedalhaus makes it more manageable. Overall, this is a reliable brunch option with strong portions, thoughtful flavors, and enough positives to make it a place I would gladly return to.

It was absolutely delicious and the best part of the dining experience. The BLTA (Bacon Lettuce Tomato Avacado) sandwich was way too heavy on the lettuce and the bread was quite hard, making it difficult to eat. It was moreso a handheld salad. Service was okay, though not especially attentive, as our water wasn't refilled. At the host stand there was some confusion when we arrived. She didnt realize we were standing there and then when my boyfriend asked a question about a menu item she didnt respond. Not sure if she was just not paying attention, the music was too loud, or didnt want to converse with us. Sort of awkward. Overall, the experience was mixed, but the butter cake French toast was delicious.

We popped in this particular Saturday morning while trouncing through the Tempe Festival of the Arts. There was a line (no surprise since it is ASU territory), but the layout of the line meant people brushing by you & getting too close. The guy who took our order was uncheerful & came across as "I don't want to be here; what do you want?" Not the best impression. We placed our order & were lucky enough to find a seat. There is a small patio on their south side; the light rail to their north. The guy who delivered our food was more friendly. The cinnamon roll was so dry, I swear it had been sitting out for a week -- and there was too much cinnamon. My sister's classic eggs benedict was unappetizing; the English muffin, too, was dry. So dry she practically needed a steak knife to cut into it. There's a Proof Bread shop just down the street. How Daily Jam can have such God-awful muffins is beyond me. The potatoes had no seasoning, she had to salt them -- and the salt & pepper shakers needed filling. My croque madame was edible, if simple. In short, there is absolutely no desire to visit Daily Jam again.

We were drinking mimosas, eating, talking, and taking our time, and I really appreciated that we never once felt rushed to leave or pressured to keep ordering. A lot of places start making you feel awkward if you stay too long, but the service here stayed friendly and attentive the entire time we were there. The mimosas were honestly one of my favorite parts because they had so many different fresh juice flavors to choose from instead of just the typical orange juice. It made the experience feel way more fun and customizable, and you could actually taste how fresh the juices were. Every mimosa we tried was refreshing and super easy to drink. The food was also really good and paired perfectly with the drinks. Everything tasted fresh and well-made, and it all came out quickly even though the place was busy. I also loved that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating because it gives the place such a nice vibe depending on what kind of experience you want. We spent a good amount of time just relaxing, enjoying the weather, and hanging out, and it honestly made for such a nice date spot. Overall, this place has a really welcoming atmosphere, great service, delicious food and drinks, and the kind of environment that makes you want to stay awhile. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to for another long brunch.

My husband and I found this place online, and it looked like a great spot for brunch. When we arrived, there was no one at the hostess stand, and it took quite a while for anyone to acknowledge us. When the hostess finally came over, we asked for a table for two. She immediately told us there was only outdoor seating available and didn't even mention that waiting for an indoor table was an option. Keep in mind, it was 110°F on a Sunday in Arizona. My husband had really been looking forward to trying this place, so we asked what was available and decided to stay. We were seated outside near the entrance. Shortly afterward, we watched the hostess tell other guests who arrived after us that indoor seating was available with only a 5-minute wait. Why wasn't that option offered to us? We absolutely would have waited. Unfortunately, the hostess's attitude and the way the situation was handled completely changed the experience for us. It left us feeling unwelcome, and we weren't able to enjoy our meal the way we had hoped. The food may have been fine, but customer service is a huge part of dining out, and this experience overshadowed everything else. Safe to say, we won't be returning. An unfriendly and dismissive environment is not something I'm interested in supporting.

    Let's start with the food: 5/5. I got the breakfast bowl and it was hands down the best breakfast…read morebowl I've ever had. It had duck bacon (was curious about this bc I'm not a fan of duck), turkey sausage, black beans, quinoa, egg, spinach and more. Somehow that entire medley was perfection when it comes to flavor. Usually bowls can be dry with no sauce, but it was not lacking at all. Staff and service: 5/5 we brought our dog Tom who's a pretty big golden doodle and sometimes can get overly excited when he gets brought outside. But their staff was nice enough to give us a dog bowl with water for him and served his egg on a little to go box plate. It's a little stressful with Tom at times and they made it so much easier. Inside/outside set-up: 5/5. They have a gorgeous inside dining with bar situation. Interior design was super cute for a date and I loved the hanging lamps.

We were welcomed with a friendly smile. We explained that the other half of our party was on their way & the host promptly prepared our table... mostly. There were small plates set for each of us, but only one roll-up/napkin (for 4) & no drink menu. Minor details, but it kinda set the tone for the service experience. Now listen... the spot itself is cute. Once we actually got service, our waiter was cool. It just took forevvverrrrr & I ended up having to request cutlery after food was served. To be fair, it was busy, but there also seemed to be plenty of wait staff, so I'm not exactly sure where the disconnect was. Food-wise: the spinach artichoke dip was definitely the table favorite. My caprese panini was ok, it was sadly lacking pesto which feels a little criminal for a caprese situation. Our friends loved the fancy French toast & I was absolutely there for the prickly pear mimosas The entire brunch honestly felt like it was one dropped plate away from becoming a sitcom episode. One poor new waiter dropped a plate on the floor, then later knocked glasses off the rack above the bar & shattered a couple right next to guests sitting there. I genuinely felt bad for him because you could tell he was having a rough shift. That said, I really appreciated that they acknowledged the long wait & gave us a discount without us having to ask. That kind of accountability goes a long way. Overall, I'd still go back & give them another try because the atmosphere was fun, the vibe was there, and I can see the potential. Every restaurant has an off day -- especially during a busy brunch rush.

They serve salads, bowls, sandwiches, all-day breakfast, protein shakes, fresh juices, and other healthy, fast-casual eats for dine-in or take-away. My kind of place! This is one of those spots that I'd frequent if I lived nearby (ChopShop, want to open in Northern California?!). I stumbled upon this spot after a little self-guided tour of ASU campus on a sleepy Sunday morning (everyone must have been asleep after the big football game the day before). I'd forgotten about this spot and it was such a happy surprise to find it again and to see that they survived the pandemic and are still thriving. First visit I ordered: -Cheat Day Wrap: scrambled egg, bacon, white cheddar, smashed avocado, tomato, brown rice (I ordered without rice), and turkey or ham (I skipped these too) *DELISH on a whole wheat wrap!!! Full of flavor and super easy to eat. This hearty breakfast sando fueled my active morning of hiking "A" Mountain (Hayden Butte Preserve) the running around the the IronMan course to spectate (30,000+ steps as a spectator!). We couldn't leave town without another trip. I took my guy and we enjoyed a salad, another breakfast wrap, and: -Chicken + Prosciutto Sandwich: grilled chicken, prosciutto, fontina, arugula, fig mostarda, dijon (no dijon for us), on a house bun. If you're in the area, looking for a healthy-ish breakfast, lunch, or snack, definitely check out Original ChopShop. Note: it gets busy at peak meal hours with students and faculty. Order at the kiosks (super easy), grab a number, find a table in their cozy interior or on their large front patio, and your food will be brought to you. Have a question? Just ask - the staff were very friendly and helpful in guiding our choices. And I love that they allow modifications to most menu items! We'll be back!!!
