“@awakencafe.az is a laid-back, beautiful spot to sip a drink while you reflect and the kids play. Located at Valley Presbyterian Church on McDowell, the cafe is open to the public. It's finally cooled down enough where the accordion glass walls are wide open and the indoor/outdoor space flows freely together. The kids really enjoyed their bagels and cream cheese, but I savored the breakfast burrito. A local caterer provides them. It was a good size and filled with eggs, potatoes, cheese and caramelized onions. Perfectly light but flavorful. The outdoor space is large with tons of seating, a grass yard, and climbing toys for toddlers. It was so peaceful. Definitely a spot to return to for reading, studying or work. The barista was very friendly. For more local adventures check out @msbusyblonde on Instagram“

“What a difference a few years can make!! Music was no longer a main feature!! Food was visibly fresh and well managed, staff was quick, accurate and ready with paper menus. Sashimi platter features were well cut, fresh. Calamari app is crisped just right, not overcooked or under cooked. Sushi rolls I had N Lights and Señor Larry, rice was perfect!! Not overly soft or under done.Great time!! Would actually take friends or family!!!Non alcoholic mix drinks are available on request.“

“I absolutely love this neighborhood gem. This time I was able to attend a wine dinner. Every course was presented beautifully, tasted incredible and paired so well with the wine. Chef Brent is super talented and if you've yet to dine here, you are missing out. Love the entire team and you can purchase the wine you love to go!!“

“Initially, we visited this place on a whim and I am so glad we did because I found myself yearning to come back! The owner is so kind and helpful - genuinely wanting to make people happy through the best desserts. Highly recommend stopping by! The strawberries and cream are to die for.“

“I hardly ever leave reviews but I truly felt like this place deserved it. This is the best Mexican food I’ve had in Phoenix. Not only that, but the staff were so incredibly nice. My husband and I ordered an online pickup when I went inside to pick it up and it wasn’t ready they offered me a seat and water. I didn’t wait even 10 minutes over the suggested time for pickup. Everyone I came into contact with was friendly and the food was fresh, hot, and delicious. We got a chicken torta, asada sope, shrimp cocktail, guacamole and chips. Our total was around $63 with a tip. We thought it was a good price for the quality and quantity of food. We will definitely be back!“

“Yep! It’s better than one could hope for. I ordered the cinnamon vanilla latte and it is incredible! The lemon poppyseed doughnut is also incredible. The citrus bite tamed by a perfect doughnut. From ordered to order in hand and as about about 3.2 google seconds relative to the rest of food service, so fast. The vibe is super chill, totally get why so many people are working on their laptops.“

“Valentine has been on my list for a long time so when we finally made it to Melrose for dinner we pulled no punches on our ordering. If we didn't get everything on the menu we were close. The restaurant itself is cute and delightfully photogenic which helps set the tone for a great meal. On the cocktail front, most were good. The only standout to me was the hatch chili margarita served in a glass boot which was as tasty as it was eye catching. Similarly, most of the food was above average with nothing being bad. The Elote pasta is the standout - it was outstanding. Basically this is a carbonara style pasta with Elote flavors instead of the traditional bacon. The execution on this dish is perfect. Prices are quite high for what you get on most dishes and cocktails and if there was more value, I'd likely have a better rating. That said, I'd return and I definitely would like to come back for pastries from the coffee bar if driving by in the AM.“

“Okay, this might be questionable but this was probably the best coffee cake I've had. I don't even think they make it there but where ever it came from it's delicious and paired perfectly with my vanilla latte. Service was great, and the outdoor swing and climbing vines are so cute and quaint. There's something whimsical about this shop, makes me want to come back for more!“

“The cheesecake is airy and amazing, it is always a delight. It is so pleasant and it never ceases to amaze how good it is! You can get full cheesecakes here as well if you want specific type, let them know advance, but they do have them the day of as well.“

“Absolutely the best ice cream place that you'll find in Phoenix. Not only is the ice cream delicious, but the people that work there are enthusiastic about what they do. It really makes the full experience positive and unforgettable. Check it out, you won't forget it!“

“Used to be a great place to hang out and meet amazing people from all walks of life. The manager is stand off ish and the culture has become so clique ish. Not open or accepting. There are so many former customers such as myself that have left and will not come back because of it. Also, they ironically preach about creating a "sober" environment but actively sell substances some of which are quite addictive (kratom). Steer clear and find other kava bars that are more welcoming and less judgy.“

“The food & service were UNREAL. I got the Al Pastor Torta, & three tacos- all of which were great. The service was fantastic from the second we walked through the door. Such friendly people. I will absolutely be back. Phenomenal place!“

“Came in for the first time the other day. It's a great, small shop with courteous staff.The decor inside is simple which I love. The coffee is smooth, but also very flavorful. I also love it when you tell the staff you're drinking inside and you get an actual coffee cup to drink from, not a to-go cup. That's a big plus for me in any coffee shop.It's in a plaza so if you blink while driving by then you could miss it but stop in for a morning cup if you have a chance.“

“Found Crafti tea when they were at an Asian festival not too long ago. Their boba is hands down THE best! After my first boba, I couldn’t stop thinking about this place. I would highly recommend this place to anyone either wanting to try boba for the first time or if you are a hardcore boba lover like me!“

“My husband a I were visiting AZ for a wedding and searched for local vegan food. So happy to find Early Bird! The buffalo Mac n cheese is phenomenal and the BBQ Birdie sandwich was fantastic! So delicious! We got to meet the owner Crystal, who is lovely and I feel like we made a new vegan friend. Hepet at the front is awesome!Crystal and her staff are wonderful and my only complaint is they’re not in Austin - yet ?“

“Best pastries ever! And lemonade - per Alejandro, my 7 year old nephew.We ordered an Elote croissant & the layers in the pastry were absolutely superb! You could smell the butter in both the cookie & croissant, a rareity here in the Valley. Perfect balance of sweetness in the chocolate chip cookie which is something I always look for. We cannot wait to go back. My nephew is looking forward to his “next day off” so he can also join. Thank you!“

“Costra taco was one of the best we had during our stay in PHX. The dark salsa that came with the chips was also fantastic. We ate in a group of 8 with a kid so we were worried we wouldn’t find room but we did and it was great. There were high chairs.“
“Not a lot to say. We stopped in for a beer while trafilfic was easing up. The place was nothing special. The beer, Spellbinder, was pretty good. The thing that put it over the top for a 5-star were the great people we met. My wifenand I sat next to a newly engaged couple and a couple 35 years married. We had a great conversation about beer, secrets to a great marriage, dogs, and children - quite eclectic!Anyways, we had a wonderful time making new acquaintances. We wish we would have got contact info ro stay in touch, but it was not to be.The brewery seemed like a local hangout as it was packed at 2pm on a Friday. We would love to come back and continue the conversation.Recommend!“

“A Delicious and Funky Neighborhood Gem!The Beach House is a true hidden gem that delights with its unique atmosphere and mouthwatering Mexican-fusion cuisine. From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a funky, laid-back beach vibe adorned with quirky decor like a defunct 1960s Volkswagen.But the real star is the food! We devoured the famous fish and shrimp tacos, a pork taco, and shared the carne asada nachos. The tacos were bursting with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients that rivaled fine dining. The salsas, from the zesty green to the molten volcano, added the perfect kick.At just $7 for three tacos and with affordable sides like $3 slushie lemonades and a $2 brownie, the value can't be beaten. Despite being incredibly busy, the friendly staff made us feel welcome and accommodated.The Beach House truly embodies the philosophy of "find what you love and do it!" It's a one-of-a-kind taco concept that liberates the humble taco into a culinary art form. With great food, lively vibes, and amazing prices, it's no wonder there was a line out the door of locals. An absolute must-visit!Parking: street parking, parking in the front in spots designated for the The Beach House. Parking in the back of the restaurant also“

“First, I was skeptical about getting food, especially macaroons from a kiosk inside of the mall lol but my husband was feeling adventurous. Woops definitely has the best macaroons I have tasted in a long time! The lady working was very helpful and friendly.The only downside I would say is not a large variety and it is on the pricey side.“

“If you are looking for an authentic hamburger, that tastes, fantastic… This place is spot on! I saw their advertising they were open, went inside, the place was clean. The staff is super friendly, and it took my order and delivered it precisely how I requested. Five out of five stars, two thumbs up - a total 10 on the food scale“
“H ‘61 Burger with additional patty easily landed in my top 5 burgers of all time list, maybe even the top spot. Everything was balanced, textures = phenomenal, served as is, rare-mid-rare. Spot on. Definitely an athletes portion; perfect after some golf or exercise.“

“By far the most professional service you can find anywhere. Cat and Randy have built a staff that is second to none and a menu that will never leave you disappointed. Do yourself a favor and I promise you will find yourself a regular. If you really want the perfect experience, ask for Elyssa who may be the best service professional EVER.“
“GET Phoenix hosted an event with Greenwood Brewing in late March. Our attendees were blown away with the courtyard area that was reserved for our private event! Paloma was a huge help with coordinating and a pleasure to work with, highly recommend!“
“The food and service here are unbeatable! My husband and I were sad to hear that this place was closing down, but excited to hear that they will be continuing as a food truck, so we will definitely be on the lookout to see where they will be posting up at so we can get some more of their amazing food!“

“Super welcoming and joyful atmosphere, I had came the night before and accidentally left my bag outside on the floor. Came by this afternoon and asked the workers if there was a chance that they held onto my bag for me, in which they did! Super thankful that they did, everything was untouched too! Loved the frozen birkin banana “

“Great food like everyone says but they need to rebuild their service table. There is a single person taking one meat out at a time and hand cutting them for the customer as they decide what they want next. All the while, three other employees stand and watch.. Would be much more efficient in reverse. Take people's orders from the front of the line and the person who is cutting the meat should be fulfilling those orders. Am I missing something? Why do we all have to stand in line for 20 mins to get a sandwich?“

“My friend, Alicia, and I had the pleasure last week of dining in this restaurant for a few different meals. The location is just beautful and opens out to a spectular verenda. We were greeted by Jonah. Jonah waited on us several times and recommended some menu items that he thought we would love. He was engaging and the food and atmosphere was perfect. That night we stopped by for happy hour at the bar and we were greeted with the same wonderful service from Gregg, the bartender. He suggested some delcious drinks paired with some great apps. What a wonderful experience. We went back to both places several times. Don't miss this place for the outstanding service and food.“
“We hosted my baby sprinkle at The Teapot and couldn't have been happier with our choice! This spot is sooo cute and perfect for events! We reached out to the venue, and they were very communicative. They were so helpful the day of, and very reasonably priced! Definitely will consider this venue for my future events!“

“This is our favorite mochi donut spot! Not too sweet, perfectly chewy, and the icings are so balanced and tasty. Spoke to the owners multiple times and they were so kind and personable, really had a wonderful experience. This was the highlight of our vacation and this is, no joke, what we’ll miss most about Phoenix. No pics, ate them all too fast.“

“It's an In-n-Out Burger. They are all basically 5 stars. Great service, food made the way you ask for it, and the speed they can move a lunch crowd out is what every other fast food place should strive for. They hire motivated people who are polite and courteous. They greet you with a smile, double-check your order, and actually give you what you asked for minus any attitude. The state of fast food in this country has gotten so bad that we rarely eat anywhere except In-n-Out. My cardiologist won't be too happy, but he won't complain as I believe I pay his country club dues.Parking: Large lot, but at lunch you may need to be patient.“

“Cool coffee shop! Felt very fancy and tons of menu options. We got the cookie butter latte and and lavender vanilla latte. Very strong lavender flavor. Only thing is you had to make sure you stirred in the flavoring pretty good because it was all at the bottom when we got them! Overall good coffeeParking: Parking was odd, you had to park in the apartment parking lots, not parking at the shot itself“

“Fastest service I've probably ever had! We were in a bit of a hurry to make it to the DBacks game and the staff was definitely fast. Food was great and seems like the owner or manager was walking around checking on patrons and was very friendly... seemed genuine ??. We're from Tucson but we'll be back again sometime because of the service and food. We had the avocado toast and the omelette special with coffee and a latte. For the manager/owner, thanks for pointing out that green tomato I thought was an olive ?... delicious.“

“What a fun taste of Japan. I was looking for an authentic Japanese spot for good real mochi and I found them online. Not many places in Phoenix unfortunately. Took my 3 year old there tonight. We tried everything on the menu! Fluffy cheesecake, fish with custard and Nutella, and ice cream with toppings! Amazing staff. So friendly and kind! Definitely going to come back and bring my friends. They also have a fun photo booth I did with my daughter!“

“Decent coffee house, the homemade system in the lattes are almost too sweet, and there isn't good searing for bigger groups like teams trying to get together offsite. Other then that it was good place to work from, chill music selection, minimum volume, could easily hold phone conversations iside and out.“

“Amazing food! Quality was on point! Hot and fresh. Very good ingredients. Large portion size for the cost. Very busy and you can tell loyal customers! When a place has no seat open on lunch time on a Thursday.. you know they are doing something right. Wait staff was friendly! Bible verse on the door.. love it. Traditional feel. All around very good experience! Will definitely be back! :)“

“I visited this establishment recently with a friend who had been here once before. Everything was really delicious. The service was excellent. My friend and I both had the honey lavender latte and I would highly recommend it. I got the Eleanor Benedict, which was really good. My friend got scrambled eggs her way and enjoyed it. Both of us got the potatoes that came with and I didn't need to add any seasoning to the potatoes they were so delicious! I think it's my new favorite brunch place and I cannot wait to go back.“

“Delicious ice cream! Fun flavors, toppings, and other options. They are aware of allergies, know which ingredients are in each flavor, and are very helpfulTonight all flavors were gluten free except tiramisu and cookie monster. They give you a gluten free wafer in the scooped ice cream and was tasty.Husband can have gluten and ordered the waffle sandwhich, and he really liked it too. Be ready to eat fast as the ice melts due to the freshly made waffle. It takes 5 minutes to be made and he said is worth it!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free friendly“

“I visited Chelsea Kitchen last night around sunset and it was a pleasant evening.I had the Brussels sprout salad, chips & salsa, as well as glass of wine -- decent cuisine with nice atmosphere close to town.Would prefer to have more self-parking, and not pay $18 dollars for a simple salad—prices are up, totally understandable, but it's getting pretty wild out there.“

“Okay. Seriously the most pleasant staff I've encountered in a bar setting. This beautiful cocktail lounge is such a hidden gem. Drinks were wonderful and affordable; which is crazy nowadays! From the first time I walked into this place, I felt like I was home. Live music is some guy that won American Idol or something, and holy shit. I sat there and drank for three hours because of him. I will recommend this place to anyone. Also, what a clean bathroom. BRAVO!“

“Food: 5/5 My friend got the Canadian bacon Benedict and I got the short ribs hash with over-easy eggs. The flavors and textures were good and balanced! Eggs were cooked perfectly too Service: 5/5 Attentive but not overbearing Ambiance: 5/5 The perfect morning breakfast next to a precious little garden scenery. The table they initially seated us on had too many tree leaves and what looked like sap but they switched us to a different table easily.“
