Restaurants in Pinetop-Lakeside

“The portions are decent. Good quality is good. They have an amazing hot chocolate. I don’t get the hype: it’s a great restaurant, but in my opinion, not good enough to justify waiting 1/2 hour for a table, or illegally parking on the dollar store property. I’ll eat here in a heartbeat if I’m hungry, I drive by, and the parking lot isn’t overflowing. Unfortunately those stars seldom align.”

“The Bistro at Annie’s is delicious! Thai Chicken salad is always my go to order!”

“Great place to visit with friendly dogs and kids. Huge fenced area around the building. Delicious beers, liquors available. The sausages are so tasty and cooked to perfection. Lots of sauce choices, although I didn't care for any of them.
I do wish they would let you purchase just the sausage without a side or if you buy one add a second.”

“My favorite sub is the Italian, so good and I love that the dressing sinks into the bread on my way home, cannolis are huge and full of flavor, all around great lunch stop, parking can be hectic but I'm usually able to get a handicap spot. So happy to have found you after leaving Florida”

“We really like the place. The portions and are great. Service is friendly. Quality, in my opinion, is as good or better than the extremely popular diner across the street… but not nearly as crowded or overhyped.”

“Came here on a recommendation. Did not disappoint!!! Green chile pork soup was killer!”

“Outstanding local joint with a fantastic selection of wines, small selection of great beers and incredible food. Our group sampled the chicken pesto flatbread, chili flatbread, crab cakes, salmon bruschetta and the French Onion soup- all were absolutely delicious! I'm told they have lobster rolls on occasion- Do yourself a favor and check out this local place- you won't regret it.”

“The service and food were equally amazing. Everything we ordered was fresh, delicious, and cooked perfectly. Best food experience we've had in a very long time, and we will be back soon. And the prices are great! Definitely recommend!”

“We were seated right away and the service was good. The food was rather mediocre. My chicken piccata came out barely warm and the sauce seemed almost not fresh made. My wife’s eggplant Parmesan was burnt on top.”

“Love the atmosphere here! Staff is friendly & food is delicious! 10/10 recommend ☺️”

“If you have a super picky eater in the family it can make trying new places difficult. But we ordered from The Spaghetti Shack for the first time for a school fundraiser and everyone in the family absolutely loved it and had multiple servings. The sauce was amazing! The meatballs were phenomenal! And the service was super friendly and fast. If you want something that you know everyone will enjoy, this is the place for you!”

“Had a delicious dinner here tonight. Excellent service. Food was fresh and appetizers amazing. It’s always great to find a really enjoyable bistro and know you’re getting fresh food and vegetables. Highly recommend for date night ! We certainly will be back .”

“Great service and food every day ‼️”

“Love this place. Best Mexican food on the Mtn.”

“I unfortunately had a very negative experience here. After eating the food, I experienced severe diarrhea all night. I hope the restaurant takes food safety and hygiene more seriously, as this was extremely unpleasant. I experienced severe stomach pain and diarrhea throughout the night, which completely ruined our trip. I believe this indicates a serious issue with food safety or preparation, and I hope you will address this promptly to prevent this from happening to other customers. I would appreciate a response regarding how this matter will be handled. I DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS PLACE**”

“Sweet Slade’s is such a hidden gem in Lakeside. The ice cream is delicious, but what really makes this place special is everything they’ve created for families. There’s a full indoor mini town for kids little shops, dress up clothes , a tiny fire truck and so much more it’s all really clean and thoughtfully built. They also have a cozy game room, and upstairs there’s axe throwing for adults, which I never expected to find here. Ady and Airivyne were the ones who helped us, and they were so kind and welcoming. For a small town that doesn’t have many indoor options year-round, this place is honestly such a blessing. More people need to know it exists. We’ll definitely be going back.”

“In town visiting family, came in here after a great experience first trip to get 4 coffees for the family. Mike greeted us, and within 5 seconds of looking at the menu said "I'm here until 5, and there's a line of people behind you. LETS GO". We started ordering immediately, and got a VERY visible eyeroll with each order. The "line of people" hadn't entered the building, was only three people and we had been at the counter at this point less than 30 seconds.We chose to walk out at this point. Sad that I had to write this, but the experience we just had was shockingly bad. Hopefully Mike's day gets better.”

“I love this place, we come almost every time we’re up on the mountain. Their hamburger buns literally make burgers something I crave. The almond croissants are super yummy as well! I also love the sun-dried tomato sourdough!! I make it in the morning with a little bit of ricotta and a fried egg. It’s not a complete trip up the mountain if I don’t stop at Baked in Pinetop!!”

“A very good place to get coffee.”

“Great coffee, great beans. cool merch, awesome staff!”

“Sandra and Jose are such amazing people and have very welcoming personalities. They are so friendly and kind. They’ve got delicious food and drinks! The elotes are so good and they even have champurrado!! I haven’t had any since I moved up here from the Valley; my husband happened to see it on Facebook that it was available here. We rushed right over and bought some. It is SO DELICIOUS!!! Thank you Jose and Sandra! My husband and I will be back soon!!”

“The Pizza and Hot wings with the side of twisted bread sticks is a must it's DELICIOUS.. Friendly customer service.”

“Amazing pizza! I loved how perfect the crust was. My wife had a calzone and it was as big as her head! Everything was so delicious!”

“We made reservations for 16 people on New Years Eve and Butch was our server. We were super happy with the food and service! I definitely recommend this place!”

“Service was fast and attentive. The food was outstanding! The prime rib was tender and full of flavor and went well with The Big Blue Van beer. A great time and am looking forward to coming back.”

“The women that work here are wonderful. They are polite and do a great job every time I come through. Thank you so much. And thank you for making me something I am craving when a lot of shops don't have the flavors most of the year. I get a chai tea with light ice and sometimes pumpkin syrup. Made that for be today, and as always. It came out delicious! ♡♡ (Branded the cup a bit so people know it's your's.)”

“expensive..but worth it. everything is alwyaa fresh. never a fail. kind and courteous.”

“If you're looking for a great place to dine, you have found it! The food is authentic and delicious! The staff is exceptional and attentive. The atmosphere is quiet and calming. We try to dine there at least once a month and ALWAYS on special occasions! I highly recommend this restaurant!”

“Just keep going back! Telling everyone about how amazing this place is. Great food, friendly staff, fast service, great prices!”

“We do recommend El Patron but we had a bad experience recently. My wife and I picked up an order to go consisting of Chicken flautas and Enchilada a La Crema chicken. We had to throw everything in the trash because the entire order tasted like fish. It was absolutely disgusting and very disappointing because we have had good food there before. In fact, El Patron is normally our go to in Pinetop. Luckily, we only ate a small amount and did not get sick.”

“I've been enjoying el rancho restraunt pretty much my whole life the sisters are so nice and even had to babysit me a few times I've learned over the years for that I am sorry..lol.. but really everytime I go up i don't hesitate and head there the very 1st day im there the food is always the best and always has the best fresh chips and salsa i cant get enough of then I recomend getting a cheese crisp to go with for my appetizers then I always get the bean and cheese burrito I'm one of those simple eaters that don't like to change it up for as long as I can remember and thats since the 1980's so if your ever in pinetop you must try el rancho you won't regret it I always leave stuffed and with a chocalate mint when I leave.. the sisters aka the owners will make sure you enjoy everything and will treat you like family.. thanks for all the positive memories el rancho you really are the best”

“Alberto’s in Pinetop not only has great food (their chili rellano burrito is crave-able) but they also have amazing deserts! I live in Show Low and will DoorDash my food from the Pinetop Aliberto’s because it is just that good!!”

“Real Fresh Mexican Food! We were in a pinch and needed food for a meeting and Aliberto’s to the rescue. Food was amazing and warm, even the chip, when we received it. The salsa were so flavorful! Highly recommend Aliberto’s Wagon Wheel.”

“We've been going here for 3 years when we travel to Pinetop. Amazing ice cream and service has always been super friendly. We love this place. Solid addition to your visit in town.”

“Ordered online and before I could rate my online experience the page disappeared. Wanted to say it 4-13 around 7:30pm and great service. Wanted to say thanks and have a good evening!”

“First time to this buffet style restaurant. We found it to be very pleasant and the food was very good. Service was excellent and servers were polite and very cordial.”

“It's a decent restaurant. Nothing fancy, but perfectly functional. Good amount of seating, with the capability of hosting larger parties. Service was a bit slow. Not many in-store customers, but a lot of to-go orders being processed. Food was excellent. All was prepared very well. Had to ask for a side sauce 4 times before it was brought to the table. That was annoying. The table next to us was dirty and never bussed during the hour plus that we were there. To finish strong, the server dropped off the wrong bill at the end of the meal. It's worth eating here, just temper your service expectations and pack some extra patience.”

“Friendly staff, friendly atmosphere. I go there sometimes on Fridays for their all you can eat fish dinner.”
