“Really good food at this quaint place in a big strip plaza. Decor is perfectly fine but nothing special, food is where it's at. The traditional set with perfectly crispy and not dry chicken. Along with the spicy papaya salad, you can go mild if you like. The coconut sticky rice is worth the upcharge. Service was very friendly and our waitress was efficient even tho she handled the whole place by herself”
Japanese • $$$
“I came here at the behest of a friend who raved about it. We ended up coming together (her visit was the second night in a row she would be eating here ?). As someone who has fish/shellfish sensitivities, I was a bit unsure of how I would enjoy it. As soon as we walked in, we were given prompt attention and showed amazing hospitality. Sean our waiter was EXTREMELY attentive, kind, and warm. He recognized my friend from the previous night and even brought us an appetizer on the house. I was blown away by the food. I got my fill on Karrage, short ribs, and Udon bowl we shared. Then the cherry (or strawberry in this case) on top of the cake was the dessert. Divine pink strawberries, fresh and succulent. Then a round of lychee icecream, freshly made. Absolutely decadent. We all left happy and with a new #1 Japanese spot on our roster.Thank you Sean and everyone at Icho Izakaya.”

Chinese • $
“I got the duck and spicy crawfish jianbing. Never having one before didn't know what to expect, but this is definitely what I would want from Asian street food. Easy to eat on the go, packed with lots of flavor. I got it mild and that was plenty of spice for my Anglo pallet. Loved the thin egg creme style packed with meat. They are fairly thin, but a good 10 Inches long so there's plenty to eat for one person. No real atmosphere as it's in a food court and you're getting the smoke and smell from other grills. Take.it outside and eat on a nice day.”
Mexican • $
“This place is fire. They have a nice salsa bar. Good choices for hot sauce, including cucumber and other veggies. I ordered al pastor and carne asada tacos. Both were delicious. Well worth the 20 min wait for a to go order during lunch rush. ?”

“We went for New Years to try it out for the first time. We had a party of 10 that included 3 young kids. Not only were they accommodating but they had our tables set up prior to arriving. That was a plus already. The staff was amazing and very helpful/friendly. While we got to enjoy our family time along with great amazing eats from their menu. So blessed to have amazing, friendly staff to ring in the new year with. They were awesome and the food was great. The establishment was so clean and even had sinks outside the restrooms in case you just needed to clean up. Definitely recommended!!! Also had so many TV’s with so many football games on lol. Great views of the tv’s no matter where you sat.”

Barbecue • $$
“Today I ordered from Bobby Qs for the first time and enjoyed the meal (celebrating my mom's birthday). I ordered half-slab baby backs, roasted corn, baked potatoes, and nachos. The meat literally fell off the bone, which I loved. It was nice and tender and not overdone. Could have used a little bit more bbq sauce. The baked potato and roasted corn sides were delicious. The nachos were ok. Not bad, but I probably would not order them again. Overall, I was pleased with the order and will return in the future.”

Mexican • $$
“This place should have so many more reviews than it does, it is absolutely amazing. I have been seeing videos and posts about birria, which is a type of soup with tons of seasonings and such. I saw that they had ramen birria and I was sold. First off, the ramen birria smelled so so good I was so excited to dig in. Second off, I decided to get it with tacos so I could dip it in the ramen. Hands down the best thing I have ever tasted. I highly recommend if you do like spicy, authentic, Mexican food. The service was quick and the lady who took our order was super helpful.”

So thank you Laytesha king- ( & hopefully I'm not butchering the spelling of ur name too bad, sorry if I am).& To her manager - she is a great waitress - keep her. ?The cook did a great job as well and the restaurant was very clean.very impressed with that.

She put them back with the rest of the jelly I ordered regular pancakes came out they came out with lemon, something and whip cream on them. I just like regular pancakes she said I thought you asked for that I didn’t ask for it but everything was cold service was crappy at all. It’s like a freak, so it is so never again I’m done with IHOP.”

“I’ve been going to Blue Adobe for more than 15++ years when a boss took me there for lunch. It is as delicious now as it was then. The food is consistent and tasty. Great New Mexican cuisine. You can’t go wrong, I’ve never had a bad dish here. I recommend the Stacked Enchiladas “Christmas Style” with a fried egg or Yesterday’s Meatloaf. You’ll leave feeling full. It’s the “stick to your ribs” kind of food.”
Hamburger • $
“Great experience at this location from start to finish. The young man at the counter greeted us with a big smile and quickly took our order. Every employee we saw was working hard and moving quickly to get the food out to customers. The food was hot and fresh, seriously the best burger we have had in a long time. I like that the burgers are wrapped in paper and are easy to hold together so none of the toppings fall out. Fries were hot and perfectly seasoned. All this plus the restaurant was extremely clean…no trash scattered on the floor. We stopped at this location on our way to Phoenix-Mesa airport for our flight back to Missouri so probably won’t ever be back here, but we sure wish In-N-Out would open some locations in our area (southwest Missouri)”

Tacos
“The food here is amazing. The birria is juicy and tender. I had the burrito and the quesadilla and both were phenomenal. It would have been nice to have some crema or lettuce (owner said she doesn't serve those in her restaurant) to lighten up the food as it's really heavy, but it was still really tasty.”
Sports Bar • $$
“Have you ever eaten Nacho's only to get down to the bottom and you only have chips left! Not here they layer the Chicken Nachos and we actually had chicken left when we were done. Go during Happy Hour only $9.00 a meal in themselves. Pair it with one of there beers and you've got dinner! Great food no matter what you order.”

Korean • $$
“It was our first time there, and we arrived early at 5 pm, being the first group in the restaurant. The place is spacious with cute decorations, and the K-pop music playing on the TVs added to the lively atmosphere.The menu had so many food options that we were eager to try them all. However, my group found the soup a bit too spicy for our liking, but the waitress kindly offered to adjust it for us. We ended up ordering a variety of dishes including grilled squid, Ojingeo Bokkeum, Sunsal Chicken, Deep-fried whole chicken, Kimchi Jeongol, Dumplings, and DIY Rice Ball. The DIY Rice Ball activity was a hit, especially with the kids.Overall, the food was delicious, and we managed to handle the spiciness well. We're already looking forward to returning at a later hour to experience the rumored cool kids' dining time, which we hear is like having dinner at a nightclub.If you're up for a fun dining experience with great food, I highly recommend checking out Hanshin Pocha!”

“We came here for mother's day and waited almost 2 hours to be seated (1 hour of that was digitally), which honestly was expected for the day. The food was great although my inlaws had a few problems with some of their food. The cheese grits were different and "pre-cheesed" and the potatoes got over seasoned with excessive salt, but other than that we had a good experience and the food was great. Would come back for sure!”

“This is the kind of restaurant you will want to come back to time and time again and be excited to bring your family and friends. I gave 5 stars for the Atmosphere because you will simply enjoy the artful, clean and comfortable surroundings. I gave 5 stars for service because you receive such personable, attentive service that's never intrusive. I gave 5 stars for the food because this is what you fall in love with! Simply wonderful beyond comparison in flavor and quality, truly prepared from the heart by two generations of the Ramos family. You must introduce your family to theirs and this wonderful restaurant.”
Brunch • $$
“The pricing was excellent, and the portions were generous. The flavors of all the dishes were delightful. However, I would have preferred if they served alcohol. A rating of 4.5 stars would be more appropriate, but there was no such option. A 5-star rating would necessitate a bit more depth of flavor, as everything was very good but not exceptionally remarkable.”

“Great spot for a drink of the patio. Has become our go to “let’s have a drink and enjoy the weather” spot They have a big wall that opens up to the patio but are good about keeping it down when it’s to hot outside to save the AC. Can be a bit loud inside, but it’s a bar not a place for having a meeting.Usually busy 4-7pm with not many open chairs and then it clears out after dinner.Speaking of dinner, they don’t have food service but they have always welcomed us in with takeout from other places. Just don’t be a jerk and clean up after yourself!”

You can place your order more than once getting different items each time. The service was mediocre, but my stomach left happy and FULL, so I can't complain! ?Will come again!”
Chinese • $$
“It's really good food. There is no doubt. A little pricy. It's good and open late. I really wish that the menu had better descriptions and the take out menu looked like the order in. There were many dishes on the order in that looked really really good that was not on the takeout. I'll go there again for sure but I'll have to find out better about what to order. A better website would really help them out.”

“Outside furbaby friendly patio. Food and service very good. They were dealing with seating a youth baseball team that dropped by for breakfast and all the adults that accompanied. Looked like they did a good job of getting everyone seated and were still delivering previous orders and filling coffee cups. There were smiles on all faces throughout. Menu is extensive, something for everyone. Try it out!”

“In March 2024 Serranos catered our adult family reunion. We had 70 people and the everyone wanted a Mexican dinner. Serranos was fantastic. They helped us decide how much to order, but not too much. The order was ready when we arrived to pick it up. They said there would be plenty of chips, bean dip and salsa, and they were right. The chips are tortilla chips (not grocery store corn chips). Everyone loved the red chili beef and the green chili chicken enchiladas, as well as beef tacos. Plenty of great rice and beans too.We’ve eaten here often with my family and love the food and service. It’s authentic Mexican food.”

Steak House • $$
“This place is my go to when I want a delicious steak and baked potato. I still gave them five stars because of past performances. But if this were my first trip it would be my last. The noise level was off the charts. But I thought good for them, busy on a Wednesday night. Then, advertising street corn appetizers for like eight bucks. I order it. We get salads, no corn. We get food and the waiter says, we are out of corn. Disappointing but it happens. I ask for A1, he grabs it off another table, it is all but empty. Then I cut into my steak it is so gristly that my reasonably sharp knife is tearing at it! I fought my way through this low quality meat, but if my next experience isn't back up to par I will assume that President Biden has turned my previously delicious $35 dollar bone in rib eye into a $10 bone in dog treat. I realize that good meat isn't cheap. $35 isn't cheap. With tip my bill was $94 for two no appetizers. So I really paid $47 for a $10 steak. That won't be a regular occurrence from patrons. Everyone notices bad meat at a steak house. There are not any Ponderosa Steakhouses anywhere anymore. They lowered their quality too. I'll update this review when I get back there. But it left a bad taste in my mouth, so it may take some time,!”

“The food was fantastic. Felt like I was eating a homemade Korean meal. Service was friendly and quick. I'm for sure coming back. The only thing in recommend is that they update the ambiance. The restaurant looks old. Besides that with trying.”
Hot Pot • $$
“I've been here about 5 times now. I'll admit I've not tried many hot pot places and the other one I did try was way worse than this one. Great selection of veggies, noodles, meats & seafood. I've only ever had their Sukiyaki broth, a little bit savory & sweet! The not having free refills kinda irks me since you're paying $35 bucks a person.”
Italian • $$
“The service was perfect! Autumn was an amazing server that was welcoming, positive, and professional. Her attention to detail was on point- for there were some things missing with my meal and also gave me tips on how to pack our food to go (I had some soup). The food was also good, despite the mishaps. Atmosphere was like any other carabbas, however, it was well maintained and kept. It was a perfect Easter dinner and because of Autumn, we may have to return very soon. Thank you Carrabas team!”

“Sooooo... a friend took me to Red Lobster, when I told her I have never been to a Red Lobster in the 23 yrs I lived in the USA. This review isn't about the food but actually something else that made me smile. The food is good and as anything else in this economy not cheap. Even for Red Lobster. The waitress was friendly. I ordered Lobster tail and a sirloin and I came with a little cup of melted butter. When I looked at the melted butter it had a big smile. (See at the picture attached) It made me smile (I know, I'm a sucker, little things in life makes me smile) Carpe diem!”

“Very friendly service and staff, and the food is always amazing! Some other Outbacks have a tendency of over cooking their blooming onions, but this place does it right EVERY TIME!

“I am visiting from Texas and friends brought me to this place. The atmosphere was amazing then I meet the owner and he was telling about his brisket. He was bragging a little so I said would you like for me to give you an honested opinion. He said yes and brought me some to try. Well he knocked it out of the ball park. The brisket had all the right marks. The taste was out of this world. Southside BBQ in Bastrop, TX could surely learn a thing or two from this Arizona Native. Job well done!!!!!!!”

“We had them cater an event for 100 people. Red beef and green chicken enchiladas, mini-chimichangas, flautas, mini tacos, green chili, tortillas. Also included chips, two salsas, tea, lemonade and horchata. Everything was flavorful, but the green chili was the star. Full disclosure the green chili is a bit spicy and I loved it. I will be going to Moreno's specifically for the green chili. Paper plates, napkins and plastic were also included. We were also very happy that they served the food buffet style. Very professional service. Highly recommended.A few days before we enjoyed the menudo at the restaurant. The tripe was tender, flavorful soup and generous portion.”

Made my bad day into a good one. Will definitely be coming back next time I am in the area or see another location to support the business. love the healthy options! AMAZING customer service. hope she gets a bonus. was there early afternoon last week I believe.”

“This place should have so many more reviews than it does, it is absolutely amazing. I have been seeing videos and posts about birria, which is a type of soup with tons of seasonings and such. I saw that they had ramen birria and I was sold. First off, the ramen birria smelled so so good I was so excited to dig in. Second off, I decided to get it with tacos so I could dip it in the ramen. Hands down the best thing I have ever tasted. I highly recommend if you do like spicy, authentic, Mexican food. The service was quick and the lady who took our order was super helpful.”

I gave 5 stars for the Atmosphere because you will simply enjoy the artful, clean and comfortable surroundings. I gave 5 stars for service because you receive such personable, attentive service that's never intrusive. I gave 5 stars for the food because this is what you fall in love with!

I promise you will enjoy it and love the food. Don't grade them on how it looks base your reviews on the food. Portions are HUGE and the service is fast and efficient! Love this place been going here for 6+ years. Oh and I now moved to San Tan Valley and we still drive down there to get food. Nowhere else is worth the drive!”

I had my brother from East Mesa try this place, my cousin from El Paso, my best friend from San Tan Valley, etc. anyone that comes to see us in Mesa, is hearing about how delicious Tipsy Chicken is. We order pickup about once a week, we’re just obsessed. Keep up the amazing work you’re doing, your boba location Cha Tea is also so good!!!”

“Partner was craving a burger so we decided to check out this new spot. It's a small, counter service style place with a very friendly staff and a handful of tables inside and outside. Food was out to us very quickly and the portions are big! I got the grilled cheese with all the added veggies and waffle fries. (They also have a veggie burger which I'll probably try next time.) Partner got a bacon cheeseburger, which was smashburger style, and Nashville hot fries. He very much enjoyed the thick cut bacon that they used on his burger and the fries were addictively spicy. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals and will return. I have to say, I typically cannot finish a whole meal (usually have to bring half home) but I ate every bite of that grilled cheese! Yum.”

“7 Garden Dumpling & Noodle House offers a cozy retreat for those craving authentic Chinese cuisine, though with a few unexpected twists. Their beef noodle soup, a staple for any noodle house aficionado, arrives steaming and fragrant. The broth is rich and deeply flavorful, with tender chunks of beef that melt in your mouth. However, there's a surprising addition to the bowl – cabbage. Traditionally, this dish isn't served with cabbage, and its inclusion may startle purists. While the cabbage adds a fresh, crunchy texture, it deviates from the classic preparation, which might not sit well with everyone. Despite this, the overall experience is satisfying, particularly for those open to culinary variations. For a true taste of innovation mixed with tradition, 7 Garden Dumpling & Noodle House mostly hits the mark, albeit with an unconventional twist.”
