    Shrimp skewers
    Renee I.

    When we pulled up to this place we got worried that we would be walking into the student union since it is on campus. But lots of nonstudent people were there too. The menu had a nice variety of items to choose from. I got the shrimp skewers which were served with lots of fresh veggies and crispy red potatoes. It was all very good but esp those potatoes. The cocktail specials looked awesome but I didn't indulge because we had another event to attend. The service was good but not great. It's a nice place and I would not hesitate to return.

    Crème brûlée

    What an absolutely excellent place to dine at, the interior vibe was super chill with some nice jazz music playing. It was not crowded at all on a weekday during lunch. We got the pasta Diavolo and the 1899 burger along with two desserts the crème brûlée, and the bread pudding. Everything was extremely delicious and Service was super friendly and quick. I would come back here again in a heartbeat for the amazing food great service and chill vibe.

    Deviled Eggs
    Marissa K.

    The food was excellent -- thank you to the kitchen team. Everything we ordered was delicious and well prepared. We had the deviled eggs, artichoke flowers, steak sandwich, and grilled cheese, and each plate was nicely executed. Unfortunately, the service didn't match the quality of the food. We were seated quickly on a Friday night, which was great, but our server was inattentive the entire time. She brought our drinks and appetizers and then disappeared. We found ourselves waiting while she handled other tasks. When she came by to clear a plate, we had to stop her to ask if we could finally order our entrées -- and also ask for straws. Toward the end of the meal, she dropped the check without saying a word. We had planned to order a few more things to go, but at that point we just decided to pay and leave. It was a strange experience overall -- amazing food, but service that made the night feel awkward and a bit rushed.

    Left 3 because the place is clean, ambiance is good, service is good but the food is not worth coming back. We ordered nachos and pork flatbread. Nachos was horrible, I would not recommend ordering it. It's like my 11 year old grandkid made it. Pork flatbread was ok. The steak which is market price was not to our liking but instead our guests don't want to complain about it, fish tacos was the worst tacos, 0 flavor, bland, small and saggy. We all left questioning ourselves. Would you ever come back? We all said N

    Drinks were great and the staff was fantastic. Beautiful place to chill for the afternoon. Even bought the hat! We did want to try the bread pudding and the crème brûlée but they were out. Overall wonderful!

    Green chili and waffles

    Our group of 18 women made a reservation and ate at 1899 today. The restaurant is beautiful, and only a couple of tables were in use. We were seated and given half enough menus. The menu caused some confusion because it says sandwiches come with fries or a side, but all of the sides have an additional charge. After some time the waiter took drink orders which were filled in a reasonable time. Then she took our meal orders. Two of us ordered appetizers which were served quickly. But the rest of the meal didn't come out for an hour! We had a combination of burgers, sandwiches, and salads, nothing complicated. It was only after we complained to our server that she and the manager delivered food to our table. The food was arranged beautifully on the plates and looked and tasted appetizing. One person was dissatisfied with her soup which the restaurant refunded. Then, even after we asked for our checks, it was 15 or 20 minutes before she brought them out, and another 10 or 15 minutes for her to process them. It's sad to say, but we will not be visiting this restaurant again.

    Food was a work of art. Service was immaculate. I downed that cherry limeade like I was dehydrated (I wasn't). That Mac n cheese made me think I was going to heaven it was so blissful.

    Delicious bread pudding

    My husband and I spent our anniversary dinner here and we were so happy we did. The food was fabulous. The artichoke hearts were our favorite! The service was top tier. Our waitress, was so nice and helpful! Loved the history you could feel in the building. Definitely will be back!

    Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich
    Scott T.

    We were up at NAU for an EV Ride and Drive and someone suggested this place when we were done. Have to be honest that when we got there and looked from outside I thought we were going to a college cafeteria. Not, could we have not been more wrong. First the place is really well appointed inside and had classic but modern aesthetics. Very impressive. Yet it was completely empty (school was out already) so was concerning again. Staff was very friendly and service was efficient for our small to medium group showing up unannounced. Now we get to the food. Wow. Just wow. Incredibly impressed by the food. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food. From appetizers to entrees everything has great flavors and memorable taste. The food is highly chef driven at incredibly reasonable prices for these days. My wife had the portobello stroganoff and it was maybe the best stroganoff I've ever tasted. Incredible flavor profiles. My wife rarely cleans her plate and she ate every bite. I had The Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich. The chicken breading was fried perfectly with a light yet significant crust. The chicken was especially moist. They served it on a French Artisan roll (very similar to ciabatta roll) that stayed perfectly firm without getting soggy during the entire meal. It held up very well. My only wish was that there was a side of honey as I think this is a must for a Nashville hot chicken. The fries were also done well and clearly fresh cut. We also tried the queso fundido. An appetizer I generally enjoy. Maybe one of the best ones I've ever had. We will definitely be coming back when I'm in flagstaff. Might even drive up just to come back. It's that good.

    Crème brûlée
    Jennifer M.

    We went to the 1899 bar and grill on Saturday 1/17/26. The interior looked clean and well kept, and we were greeted immediately. Our server's name was Trinity, and she was the sweetest! So knowledgeable about the menu and was more than happy to answer our questions with a smile and great attitude. Her service was amazing. We tried drinks, the crème brûlée for dessert and several dinner dishes. I had the French dip special which was very good! My husband enjoyed his ribeye. Overall, we enjoyed the experience and food for the prices!

    Top Sirloin and a side of Mac & Cheese

    Food was delicious, the sirloin comes with a side of absolutely amazing vegetables that pair well with the potatoes. Everything was cooked very well and the service was fast and polite. Our server Meg was especially efficient and seemed super nice. We came on their jazz night and it was incredible. Very nice atmosphere.

We ordered the Basque cheesecake, and it was nothing like what we expected. Instead of being moist, creamy, and custardy, it was dry and crumbly. I mentioned to our server that the pastry chef might want to reconsider the recipe, but she responded that it had been made this way for many years, suggesting they were confident in it as is. At $16, the cheesecake was especially hard to justify. We've had far better cheesecake elsewhere for less. Would we return? Maybe...but primarily for the portobello appetizer. Overall, we'd probably choose to spend our money at Shift instead.

Hospitality matters to me just as much as what's on the plate because great restaurants don't just serve meals; they create memories. Unfortunately, Shift became one I'll never forget for the wrong reasons. Our day couldn't have been further from what the staff assumed. We spent the morning hiking, went back to rest, explored a local bookstore, grabbed ice cream, and walked to our dinner reservation. Not one alcoholic drink had been consumed by anyone in our group the entire day. Not one. We also had a child with us. The only conversation we had with the host before being seated was asking whether it was okay that we had arrived about twenty minutes early for our reservation. We were polite, excited, and looking forward to dinner. Then my husband ordered a beer. The waitress immediately refused because she claimed the hostess believed my husbands speech and mannerisms meant he was intoxicated. Read that again. A guest who had consumed zero alcohol all day was judged to be intoxicated. I understand the responsibility restaurants have. If someone is genuinely impaired, absolutely don't serve them. Every responsible restaurant should protect its guests and its liquor license. But there is an equally important responsibility that seems to have been forgotten: making sure your judgment is actually right before labeling someone. There was no bar crawl. No cocktails beforehand. No wine tasting. No brewery stop. No hidden drinks. There wasn't even one drink. We left feeling embarrassed, confused, and honestly caught off guard. Not because a beer was refused, but because a person was reduced to an assumption based solely on how they naturally presented themselves. Here's what makes the experience even harder to understand. After leaving Shift, we walked to Atria, where we remained for approximately two hours. We talked, enjoyed ourselves, and spent the evening there without issue. If someone in our party had truly been intoxicated wouldn't that have been obvious there as well? It wasn't. Food can be good. Cocktails can be creative. Service can be polished. None of that matters if hospitality disappears the moment someone doesn't fit your expectation of what a guest "should" look or sound like. Maybe perhaps because we weren't locals we seemed off ? To anyone considering Shift, especially if you're traveling with someone whose speech, mannerisms, or disability could be misunderstood, know that this was our experience. I hope the restaurant reflects on what happened and asks itself a difficult question: How many guests have we mistaken for being intoxicated when, in reality, they simply communicated differently? Because that's not just a missed beer. That's a missed opportunity to treat someone with dignity. I came to Flagstaff excited to discover one of its most " creative" restaurants. Instead, I left wondering how quickly a restaurant built on hospitality could make a guest feel so unwelcome. Simply , because my husband is a restaurant manager in Las Vegas, who has managed restaurants like Yellowtail, Herbs&Rye, Gjelina, and Edo we left out of respect for the industry. However, we should have got our deposit automatically refunded. Next time, take the time. Take the time to care. If a staff member is under this assumption, management intervene not to just follow said assumption and repeat what she said, but to hold an actual conversation with your guest, to evaluate , to observe, to understand. I promise you, that would change so many things for you.

From the food to the service, everything came together beautifully. We started with two appetizers: the Soup of the Day, which was a mushroom bisque, and the Brie Bruschetta. The mushroom bisque was deliciously creamy, rich, and full of flavor, the perfect comforting start to the meal. The Brie Bruschetta was such a fun combination of flavors. The creamy, slightly tangy Brie paired beautifully with the sweetness of the fig and green apple, while the balsamic glaze added just the right amount of acidity. The little touch of black salt brought everything together. Sweet, savory, creamy, and slightly tangy all in one bite. I loved the combination! For my entrée, I ordered the Pan-Seared Salmon, served with creamy orzo, spinach, mascarpone, lemon, and fried shallots. The salmon was fresh, perfectly cooked, and seasoned really well. The creamy orzo was rich without overpowering the salmon, and the lemon gave the dish a nice brightness. Overall, it was flavorful and really well balanced. My boyfriend ordered the Mushroom Ravioli and added chicken for some extra protein. The ravioli was handmade and absolutely adorable! They weren't the traditional square-shaped ravioli you usually see. These were more like little pasta sacks, filled with mushroom and tied at the top. So cute! And, more importantly, they were delicious. The wild mushroom filling and creamy sauce made for a rich, comforting dish, and the added chicken made it a heartier meal. And then came dessert, the Chocolate Torta! It was so creamy and decadent that it practically melted in my mouth. If you're a chocolate lover, this is definitely one to save room for. Teatro describes it as dark chocolate ganache with whipped cream and rum-caramel sauce, and it was every bit as indulgent as it sounds. A special shout-out to Alex, our server, who was so sweet and attentive throughout the entire dinner. Our water glasses were never empty, which is one of those little details that makes you feel genuinely taken care of. Overall, we had a wonderful dinner at Teatro. The food was flavorful and thoughtfully prepared, the presentation was beautiful, and the service was excellent. It felt like a special night out without being stuffy or pretentious. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Flagstaff. If you're looking for a great Italian dinner downtown, put Teatro on your list, you won't regret it!
