“Been to Society about 5 times now and have never been disappointed. Amazing food (The Diablo beef tips and the Evo salad (Kale) is incredible. I never thought I'd say that about kale, but you have to try it to understand. Excellent service and Uber friendly staff too. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious and pleasant, I recommend and we will be back.“

“I have been here two times the 1st time I got the pastrami sandwich. it was so good the slaw on top was crunchy and delicious. the second time I got the spaghetti shipwreck let me tell you it was amazing it all just goes great in one meal. I did have it for lunch and dinner shared it with the wife. I will be back again and will try something different each time I can't wait to try them all. the picture is the shipwreck such a generous portion.“

“My friend is in town and she has celiac so we were trying to find a good place for her to have variety. We found a recommendation for this place on a gluten-free page. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. I was shocked at how gluten friendly they are, even to the point of having a dedicated oven for the gluten-free pizza us. My friend was overwhelmed with all the amazing options, and absolutely loved that she could pick whatever she wanted. We had the focaccia bread, the bacon, mac & cheese, and the fungi Florentine pizza. Dessert we tried the apple crisp and the tiramisu, both are which are gluten-free. The food was incredible. We will definitely be back.“

“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!“

“We come to Spinatos in Tempe frequently, as it has become one of our favorite places. The staff and food is always spectacular. We love wine Wednesday! Unfortunately my boyfriend was quite disappointed with the pesto pasta, a dish he gets almost every time. The taste was very bland this time. This will not inhibit us from returning, though it was a surprise.“

“It’s Olive Garden, done just as intended. Good food at fair but increasingly expensive prices. Interior that hasn’t changed in years. Friendly, attentive staff. This isn’t high end Italian food, but it’s also not priced as such. Go for a decent family meal.“

“Such a classic, fun place for Chicago-style pizza. We’ve been coming here for almost three decades!“

“Spaghetti and meatballs were on point. The garlic bread complimented it just right. The meatball sandwich made for the perfect lunch the next day.“

“I felt like the staff is intelligent and kind which matched the comfortable decor of the establishment. The pace of service was neither slow nor rushed so it all made for a very pleasant evening with old friends who now visit from out of town. I was frankly astounded by how well the on-line booking through Open Table worked because I made the reservation for 4 literally 45 minutes before appointed time but were seated immediately when we arrived 5-10 minutes in advance of the reservation and they even sat us at a table with a Happy Birthday plaque because I had noted we were celebrating the birthday for a member of our party. Very enjoyable evening.“

“This pizza is amazing and one of the best i’ve had in tempe. The staff here is super friendly, I had an interaction with an employee named Jacob that was super kind and went out of his way to answer all my questions. Location is great as well.“

“Best shrimp scampi bar none“

“Everything is intentional. Great wine, every selected item carefully placed on the bruschetta. Every olive 🫒 selected carefully. Yum.“

“Their spicy butcher is great! Thank you!“

“I wish we had found this place sooner. Delicious food. We can’t wait to go back.“

“6 rating out of a possible 5… outfuckinstanding !“

“Great food, fast service, friendly staff and clean. Always recommend Barros.“

“Best Pizza, Sandwich & Calzone in the area. Every time I travel this is my FIRST stop. I order two pizzas, sandwiches for work and a calzone. NEVER been disappointed. They double bake my pizzas at request - no charge. Try them - you will not be disappointed either.“

“I’m a pizza snob I grew up in jersey. That being said I generally avoid pizza restaurants that serve Pepsi. If you’re cheap with soda what else are you cheap with? but this place has a pretty tasty pizza it’s Midwest style and super thick almost like a Sicilian and surprisingly it taste good it will never be my favorite, but it’s not bad for across the street. . . .“
