- Daniel ChelgrenAugust 5, 2013Plan ahead for events. If you're attending a game/concert downtown I recommend making a reservation. The place gets very full and can be hard to get in and out in time if you show up right before.
Sabrina KinneyNovember 18, 2013The perfect place in downtown Phoenix to grab a fresh meal and geeky cocktail at a reasonable price! Try the peaches and peppers cocktail and pair it with a salmon kale salad! Yum
🌵Andrew Kolikoff🌵November 23, 2014Fun, loud, classy bar fronts the establishment followed by attractive lounge-like seating. Adventurous menu delivers some surprisingly delicious fare. Jambalaya is quite yummy albeit not traditional.
Desiree GastonAugust 20, 2018You can find good food and seafood offerings here for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Try some raw oysters or my favorite, the butcher board! Their outdoor patio offers a nice ambiance.
Francisco HernandezFebruary 5, 2015Had the oysters, the filet mignon, zucchini fritters, and for dessert a pumpkin cheesecake. Best food I've had in a long while. Everthing was excellent, especially the oysters.- Daniel ChelgrenAugust 5, 2013Save the cheese! If you've been here before you know how great the pretzel and fondue cheese is. Ration the cheese and save it for your entree. It's great with fries especially.
Erin WoodNovember 5, 2013The house made pretzels with cheese fondue are simply delicious!! And their local beers on tap offer a nice variety. A great place place to watch any sports game!
Shannon CoulsonMarch 25, 2016WOW - best food I had in Phoenix. Get the Butcher's Platter, the hummus, & the pretzels with fondue, & one of their many awesome cocktails.- Daniel ChelgrenAugust 5, 2013Parking downtown can be tricky. Some don't realize that the metered parking downtown shuts off at 5pm. If you're attending an event and getting dinner before, find a meter and you can park for free.
Leila O'HaraNovember 13, 2013Some of the best appetizers in Phoenix, like the soft pretzels with provolone fondue! Great happy hour spot, I also love the artichoke hummus and crispy shrimp.
Dongjun LeeOctober 15, 2015This is not a upscale steakhouse like Morton's where you would expect hefty bill close to 200 bucks for two. While very lively and casual, it does not compromise with the quality of food. A-
Nicole R.June 8, 2013Wow! Impressed from the moment we walked! Everyone is very friendly and attentive! Pretzels & fondue rock! Seafood cioppino is amazing! Drink a maid in mexico! Yum!
Cup CakeNovember 10, 2013They have happy hour on saturdays!!! These are the best pretzels I've ever had in my life, super soft and fresh.
- Daniel ChelgrenAugust 5, 2013Ask your server about the charcuterie! The meats and cheeses are all different and full of flavor. If you've never had them, I highly recommend trying some out.
Lee HoffmanFebruary 16, 2017He pretzels are amazing. The filet and asparagus fantastic. Really good.
Gail BuckelewAugust 7, 2014Everything! Unique interpretation of favorites while stretching the limits into new deliciousness. Highly recommend if you are in the Phoenix area
Brittany LinderJanuary 4, 2018Get the Cubano. It's everything you hoped for and more. Juicy, smoky, tangy...it hits every part of your mouth. Perfect. 👌
Isahia WardAugust 4, 2016I got 2 words for this shop, SIMPLY AMAZING! I love the foods, the classy look of the place, everything here is fantastic!
Brandon KeenenJuly 21, 2013"10" . Possibly one of the best meals I've had all year. Oysters were perfect, scallops, filet, white fried shrimp were all fantastic!!! Great service and atmosphere.
Phoenix New TimesMarch 11, 2011from the looks of the menu, it's aiming for the dining public's sweet spot: contemporary American cuisine with comforting flourishes and reasonable prices. Read more- Andy FrancoJanuary 19, 2016The pretzel balls with provolone fondue, sweet potato tortelli with shrimp, and the salted caramel pudding!!!
Erwin NtakirutinkaFebruary 17, 2018The jambalaya is very good, I will be going to this place more often.
Shelly PatreauxNovember 6, 2014Surpassed all expectations. Bartender Brian recommend the Jambalaya & Tortellini w/shrimp. My, my, my.
Gordon Grant CurtisAugust 24, 2016We have always had great waiters who are attentive and personable The menu is an eclectic mix with something for everyone.
Nuri JeonOctober 9, 2014We had to have a quick bite. Food serving was very fast but the burger was just amazing and so juicy. Definitely will come again!
- Daniel ChelgrenAugust 5, 2013Hummus is a must. I don't consider myself a fan of hummus but the artichoke hummus they serve is amazing. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Cassie AndersonMay 6, 2012Ryan took great care of us. The food was fantastic! I had the salmon, my father had the chicken pot pie. The pretzels are to die for.
Sherrie Saint-AmantMarch 15, 2013Beet salad with champagne vinaigrette and scallops is delicious :) Love the ambience! Excellent service for a business lunch.
Koka TurkiaJune 19, 2013There is nothing arrogant about this place except for the taste of the food. Flavors are so clean and bold with a pleasant twist. Service is great. pleasantly surprised
Sara BottApril 28, 2013The sweet potato tortellini was amazing. Order the mule to drink, and don't forget to get your parking validated!
Jennifer DanielDecember 11, 2011It's difficult to leave a tip when EVERYTHING ON THE MENU IS DELICIOUS. If you can only go once don't be a snob—the pretzel fondue is as good as everyone says.
Alyssa StrubharFebruary 15, 2013This restaurant has wonderful happy hour specials like soft pretzel fondue for $6 and cocktails for $4. They are unfortunately closed Sundays though.
Carter BaileyAugust 5, 2014The Pork Carnitas and the Fish and Chips are superb! I could eat the pork carnitas all day...
Their apple and beet salad is awesome! So is the peanut butter cup for dessert. If you want something a little heavier, go for the potato fritters yum!
Chuck CDecember 6, 2017Start with an artichoke dip. Then go a classic with the butchers meatloaf. Add some sriracha for a new twist.
As soon as you sit down, order a Polish Fix and an order of the pretzel rolls with fondue. You won't be sorry.
Great happy hour ambience & wine selection -- even European faves!
Friday special - king crab cioppino is to die for! Try the jambalaya and crab cake salad too if u want something yummy but light
Nadia ThinksOctober 3, 2013The jambalaya is excellent, as is the turkey sandwich. The cioppino, while yummy, is not authentic.
Jacque ZulkaApril 24, 2012Part of the Fox Group. Great atmosphere, great service. Very expensive, but close to everything downtown Phoenix.
Deanna ElliottFebruary 17, 2011Enjoy the pretzel and cheese dip app, the turkey sloppy joe, and the hot choco cake. Its delish! Chip is a great server, ask for him.
