“We had the most amazing time at El Chorro for my best friends wedding. I would like to give a huge thanks to the team for providing amazing service and a memorable evening. Thank you! I highly recommend this wedding venue. Every little detail is absolutely beautiful. Mike(server) served us(bridal party) and he was so wonderful. He was fun, attentive, and made sure that we were beyond happy. He was so nice. We were all talking about how great of a job he did and how we would come back for dinner some time just to have him as our server!“

“Amazing dinner with a great view

Service was absolutely fantastic. Our server was friendly and attentive and made great suggestions across the board.

All of the food was amazing, however, the shishito peppers weren’t worth the price and didn’t stand out like the other dishes did.

Must try: Hamachi crudo, Hudson valley foie gras, Wild Hokkaido scallops, cheesecake“

“Absolutely Delicious 😋 Can’t stop talking about it! We will definitely be back.“

“I've been coming here for almost a dozen years. The food never disappoints. Some of the servers come and go but some faces stay the same. Fritz will always be my favorite, and even when I don't get sat in his section, it makes me happy when he pretends like he remembers us. Some dishes change with the seasons, some stay year round because they're just amazing. The chef is meticulous with staging every dish that comes out and the taste is always on par with the aesthetic. We went for restaurant week this time and all the dishes were delicious. Even sitting next to a very loud annoying group couldn't ruin the enjoyment of my meal.“

“Local restaurant exceeded my expectations. Bacon wrapped shrimp and green Chile cornbread were awesome. A little pricy but worth it. You get what you pay for in this case. Service was top notch too.“

“great views, fun funky decor, great place for cocktails and food“

“Had the best pasta Alfredo dish ever! Salads looked great too!“

“We just came in with a large group and sat at a firepit. We were told to leave after a few min due to a large group reservation in an hour. We talked to the manager who told us we could stay for an hour until the reservation showed. Our table was ready after about 30 min. We were stuck in the back of a private area where 2 people didn’t receive their food until half way through and one person waited for a condiment for the entire meal. Another person got her drink order filled at the very end of the dinner. Before we left they seated 2 other tables extremely close to us when many many other tables were available! During a pandemic! Horrible experience from a usually very enjoyable place. Poorly poorly managed!“

“Jessaca amd I went for our anniversary dinner and it was spectacular. The food was absolutely incredible, the staff was sociable and treated us like family. Would highly recommend for a romantic night out.“

“We loved this place! The food had so much flavor even if seems like a small menu. Service was knowledgeable and went above and beyond. Hostess was super nice , as well as busboy and waitress who was above and beyond with descriptions of food and genuinely made us leave happy. I think her name was Mindi and Mandy ??“

“Chicken cordon bleu with tater tots and a side of ranch.“

“Super friendly staff, fair pricing with great happy hour deals. Perfect downtown Phoenix location. Delicious burger. Definitely worth a stop. I know I’ll be back.“

“We have wanted to come here for years. It was so worth the wait and so wished we had gone sooner! The surprise was walking in and seeing a beautiful, calming atmosphere with smiles everywhere. The white table clothes and fine silverware was such a nice touch. We were greeted with sincere kindnesses. Our server, Margaret was amazing. The food is 10+. Comfort food. It was an experience that was golden to share with our friends to celebrate our friendship. Thank you CPH!“

“Stopped at Randy's on a whim and are so glad we did! I'm from the Midwest and haven't had a good hot beef in years so when I saw hot beef on the menu I knew I had to try it. I wasn't disappointed, it was delicious! Waitress was phenomenal as well. The prices were reasonable too. We definitely plan on going back.“

“We are new-ish to the Valley & like to support local places, so we look for new restaurants to visit each weekend. I found The Main Ingredient on FB yesterday & the menu caught my attention. We'll, SO glad we drive in to try it! Holy smokes did we gave a great lunch today! I had the brunch huevos & the hubs had the Cuban. Great portions (I couldn't finish my huevos) and both of us were saying we want to come back & try other items. The service was fine - I definitely felt like if you were from the neighborhood you were recognized & chatted up, but by no means was our server not perfectly fine... appropriately friendly & attentive, drinks & refills arrived promptly, she checked on us mid-meal, the bill came promptly. Zero complaints on service but hands in the air on that food! We'll definitely return to try out more of the menu!“

“Thank you for coming to Green Hills, TN! Service is stellar, food is awesome, just totally love the vibe of this place! Black Truffle Pizza is my new favorite!“

“Great service and offerings!“

“This place is always welcoming, no matter when I come in they are always there to help even when it's busy they make their way to you. I've been going to this Dennys for years and the only one I will go to. The kitchen is always on point with the food they put out“

“Great/innovative food, nice service, too bad expresso is un-drinkable.“

“Incredible service great food fair pricing and owners who actually care about customers“

“The food was good and atmosphere is amazing.“

“Indulge in one of their amazing cocktails, choose the octopus for the first course, and enter dreamland from there. Last night was the latest A++ dinner where everything was done perfectly, and danced on our tastebuds like magic. A very special place, and there’s a reason why people are inspired to exclaim ‘best meal ever’. Life is short, go this week, Highly recommended.“

“The Breakfast Club was an exceptional highlight of our Phoenix trip, offering delicious food and a memorable dining experience.

First, the Apple Fritter was a standout. Essentially a fried waffle, it brought back fond memories of a funnel cake I once enjoyed. The cinnamon was perfectly balanced, creating a delightful harmony of flavors. If you're in the mood for a dessert-style breakfast, this is an absolute must-try—10/10!

Next, the Breakfast Grilled Cheese impressed with its generous size and hearty flavors. I’d rate it an 8/10, making it a solid choice for those looking for a filling, savory option.

The only hiccup in our visit was the check-in process. After being checked in, we waited in the car for about 30 minutes only to discover our reservation had been canceled. It seems the platform they use might benefit from some improvements, as we noticed others experienced similar confusion and decided to leave.

Despite this minor issue, our overall experience was fantastic. We’d wholeheartedly recommend The Breakfast Club to anyone visiting the area—it’s well worth a stop!“

“Great food friendly quick service“

“We were greeted with friendliness when we walked in the door. The items on the menu were diverse and creative, with a mix of more standard fare. The food was delicious with an enjoyable mix of seasoning and well cooked fare. The wait was appropriate for the cuisine. A wholly pleasing experience.“

“Food is always excellent and new items arrive throughout the year. It’s my ‘go to comfort food’!“

“Food was good, customer service excellent. Very clean & healthy environment. Enjoyed breakfast/lunch with my family. I highly recommend Black Bear Diner to everyone. We will be back for sure… 💞🌹💐🌺🎈💞“

“What a sparkling diamond! 💎 The owl theme with the vintage store atmosphere made me feel right at home. The swag lamps and chandeliers and delicious food make it a cozy cafe. It’s also child friendly with the decor and the owl selfie station. Highly recommend! It’s a definite must stop for the visitor to the area.“

“We had lunch today and LOVED everything.we started with the spinach artichoke dip 10/10. Then I had the white shrimp rigatoni and my bf had the farmers market bowl(all the food was amazing we had to share) . My drink of choice was the espresso a go go 10/10 and bf had all the beer recs our waiter gave (our waiter was amazing and knowledgeable forgot his name but he had curly hair). He also recommended the sticky Carmel cake (his personal favorite). YOU HAVE TO TRY IT!“

“Toka is an absolute gem in Scottsdale for anyone looking to experience genuinely authentic Balkan cuisine. The restaurant not only impresses with its immaculate cleanliness but also captures a genuine Balkan atmosphere. The decor and ambiance are warm, inviting, and reminiscent of a cozy, traditional Balkan eatery.

The staff is incredibly kind, and their service is top-notch, making you feel like part of the family. We’ve had čevapčiči and burek all over the Balkans, but we rarely enjoyed them as much as we did here. The perfectly grilled and juicy čevapčiči were seasoned to perfection, and the meat-rich burek was flaky and savory—a true delight.

What makes Toka even more special is its offering of traditional Balkan products for sale, featuring original brands that are hard to find elsewhere. From food items to drinks and sweets, you can take a piece of the authentic Balkan experience home with you.

Toka is a must-visit for anyone seeking a genuine taste of the Balkans right in Scottsdale. Highly recommend!“

“Beautiful restaurant with gorgeous views and a beautiful romantic setting. The food was excellent, and the service was amazing.“

“The atmosphere is great. They got a great staff, the food oh my God is so delicious I highly recommend this restaurant if you are traveling from Texas to Arizona. You need to stop here I highly recommend it. I give it 5 star.“

“Today I placed an online order and it was set to deliver, my mistake. I called the restaurant and let them know I will have a family member pick up order. They were super understanding and said the order was changed to pick up. As my family member arrived he saw the “delivery “ person grab our order from the pick up shelves and leave. Oh well. My family just let them since the order was on its way. Well, the guy never arrived at our home. I called the restaurant explaining my issue- and they immediately said they’d replace the order. No need to reorder, and it would be ready in 15 minutes. They were incredibly professional and exceptionally fast. I cannot recommend Flower Child enough for this. THANK YOU! The dinner was amazing and stress free- and I will be back many times over ❤️“

“I had the Cobb salad here and it was delicious and hearty. Service was wonderful, and the atmosphere is very nice. I recommend this location over the Biltmore location because the Biltmore location is dated and a bit dreary. Keirland location is great EXCEPT for parking during the holidays....horrible parking situation.“

“Atmosphere was wonderful and service was great. I ordered the mushroom zen bowl and the dish itself wasn’t what I was expecting, the dressing was a bit spicy but the waitress happily brought me a substitute. I will say the roasted tomatoe bruschetta was the best I’ve ever had.

Dietary restrictions: They had a good selection of dietary choices.“

“The chicken fried with there amazing country gravy and lumpy mashed potatoes the way l love them..all there dinners are so good. Never had anything that was not excellent. The steaks are like eating butter. So tender unbelievable...“

“Fun birthday experience with family“

“Great breakfast place, comfortable atmosphere ,friendly and pleasant staff, quick service and good food with plenty of large portions. I need to say consistently good, smooth drip coffee. Rarely I can do coffee straight up, no creme, no sugar - but here I can!! Prices are really reasonable and daily specials. Oh! Saw a lunch plate served of chili cheese fries that was stacked like a mountain on the plate. Defy anyone to finish it! Great old fashion neighborhood hang out.“

“Love WF - yummy and great atmosphere!“

“Alec was an outstanding server great food Thankyou and a birthday card class act“
