    Jalapeño marg
    Shanita F.

    A friend and I came to Condesa on a Thursday night for dinner and drinks. We each ordered a classic margarita--great price at $14- one strawberry (with a sugar rim) and a jalapeño one with a tajin and salt rim--and I loved how they present them! The strawberry one came shaped like an heart! Also, instead of a full rim, they do this cute, artistic strip of sugar or salt on the glass. It's a small detail but really well done. The space itself is super charming. There's a long bar with plenty of seating, plus a cute patio out front near the sidewalk. Inside, it's low-lit with Mexican music playing, greenery hanging from the ceiling, and a bit of an industrial feel--it all comes together really nicely. Even the bathroom is adorable. The bartender was also super friendly, which made the experience even better. she checked in with us often. Very kind soul! We started with chips, salsa, and guac. You get a few different salsas: a chunky spicy one, a spicy green salsa, and a mild red. The chips were really good, and they also included these pinwheel-style chips that were a little different and had a nice bite to them. For my meal, I ordered the pollo asado burrito stuffed with rice and meat--really good. My friend got the enchiladas with refried beans and rice and loved them too. The enchiladas had plenty of sauce, and the beans (pinto) and rice were both really well seasoned. Portions were generous--we even had enough to take home for breakfast the next day. Overall, such a cute spot with great food, strong drinks, and thoughtful details--right down to the real flowers at the bar. Definitely would come back.

    Cheesy bean dip
    Dawn B.

    We stopped in and had an appetizer and a drink. I had heard the cheesy bean dip was incredible. I thought it was tasty but I wouldn't say incredible. I felt the salsa was rather spicy for my taste buds but they were flavorful.

    Ceviche

    We enjoyed our dinner at Condesa! We were looking for a restaurant in downtown Phoenix and we were able to walk in here on a Saturday and got sat immediately. The inside is really cool - pretty moody and lots of hanging plants. We got chips and salsa as we sat down - which was great! I had the In Bloom mocktail which was very refreshing. We started with the ceviche and Sonoran Caesar. Ceviche was okay but I prefer the stuff we make at home. The Caesar was also good but nothing special. The tacos and dessert were my favorite part! Our server was super sweet and very attentive. 4/5 stars just because the food didn't blow me away. I would definitely go back to try a couple more things!

    We sat by the bar.

    Me and my friend had some spare time and went in only for a quick drink. The chips and salsa were complimentary free first round. The drinks were pretty good. Also the three salsas. We were greated and seated right away. The ambience was so relaxing and clean and nice. Wish we had enough time for food but I will be going back.

    Chips and Duros
    Brandon P.

    This was a tough one. Everything was very good! If you go here for tacos you will not be disappointed! Go for lunch 3 tacos, chips/duros and a drink for $15. A little expensive but not outrageous. 5 Star - I don't know if I've been to any restaurant where I loved all three salsas. The house tomatillo, chile de arbol, and salsa fresca were all excellent. None of them were really spicy but had hints of a kick. The salsa fresca was probably my favorite though. The chips and duros were well seasoned too! 4 Star - the shrimp , pastor, and asada were all very good. The shrimp were cooked perfectly cooked. The pastor had some char on them and the pineapple balanced the taco well. The asada was a little bland, and I would have enjoyed a little char, but still a good taco. The atmosphere was very laid back and comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and the service was fantastic. 3*** = Good but no separation from similar restaurants 4**** = Set themselves a part with quality food and I want to go back. 5*****= You have to go out of your way and make a special trip to try the deliciousness that is there!

    Lunch menu

    Vegan review: One of the treats of working downtown north of Van Buren was eating lunch at Cocina 10 at the Crescent Ballroom. Covid put a kink in that - no more lunch service. And then I stopped working downtown daily. Fast forward to 2025, and I'm selected to serve on a grand jury all summer, for $12 a day (plus mileage), 2X a week for four months. Yep. My reality became "where can I go to lunch south of Van Buren, for less than $12 (my daily wage). Amazingly, Condesa delivered! Their $10 lunch specials, including a beverage, chips and soda, are the best buy in downtown! During my adventures in civil service, I was able to make it to Condesa several times. The chips and salsa are as good, if not better, than my memories of Cocina 10. The burritos seem a bit different - may a different flavor to the beans? - but are still delicious. They are slightly grilled, giving the quality tortilla a bit of a crunch. The vegan cheese is unfortunately not an option for the lunch special, but it's worth it for an extra dollar or two. I also had the Cocina 10 ensalada (made vegan) and vegan jackf fruit tacos during my term of service. All good, but the tacos were spicier than expected. The location is an easy walk from either end of downtown, and service is friendly and fast. The dining area is quiet and cool, which was a great help for summers downtown. I never tried to park since I was already down there, but I can imagine that being a problem given the location. But if you are in the downtown area already, and want a high quality, tasty and affordable lunch (or dinner) with vegan options, Condesa is your place!

    Promotion for event that the restaurant decided to remove after kicking many of its patrons out

    La Condesa began promoting its June 18, 2026 World Cup watch party for the Mexico vs. South Korea match days in advance, encouraging customers to make reservations and positioning itself as a destination to watch the game. What they failed to disclose anywhere in their advertising was that customers would be forced to leave after one hour. We made a reservation specifically to watch the match. After ordering food and drinks, our food had just arrived, was still warm, and more than 90% of it remained untouched when staff informed us that our time was up. The match hadn't even reached halftime. We explained that we were there because of the watch party they promoted. We offered to continue ordering food and drinks. We offered to spend more money. The answer was still no. When we pointed out that none of the social media posts promoting the event--including those posted two days before the match--mentioned a one-hour limit, management claimed the hostess should have informed us upon arrival. Had we known we would be kicked out before halftime of a two-hour match, we never would have made a reservation or spent our money there. To make matters worse, the restaurant was extremely hot, with little to no effective air conditioning. The most telling part? After being confronted about the misleading promotion, the watch party advertisement was removed from their social media. Fortunately, screenshots were saved. If you're considering attending a future watch party at La Condesa, be sure to ask whether you'll actually be allowed to stay long enough to watch the event they're promoting.

    This spot was such a hidden one till now while I keep eating around this place all the time. Finally discovered this through a friend for a team lunch. I couldn't snap much pictures since it was a business team meeting. Overall I would highly recommend this place for the quality of food you get here and at a very reasonably priced for a quality restaurant. Here are my takes: Food/Drinks: Tried a few appetizers on the table to share. As my entree, I got chicken enchiladas. Everything was so delicious here. Good quality food as well. Service: Staff was superb during my visit. They were so friendly. Checked in me multiple times. Interacted with 3 of the staff so can say it should be their restaurant ethics for sure and can assure a great experience during your visit. Ambiance: Ambiance is the first impression you would love this place about. Everything looks classy and very artistics as well. This has a great vibe overall. Hygiene: One of the most cleaned restaurant you can even go to. No complaint during my visit. Everything (table, cutleries, dishes) was clean slate like anything. Price: For the experience they offer and the quality of food that you can feel difference, their menu items are very reasonably priced. If this place was near my home, this may have been my to go place.

    Tacos

    Got there right when they opened and so glad we did. Within 20 minutes the place was packed and I can see why. Everything we ordered we loved. Can't wait till we can go back to this cute little restaurant.

    Vegan Guacamole w/ Chips (had to say no cotija cheese)
    Lo B.

    Nice vibe and warm, friendly servers. I appreciate that they stay open late and have clearly labeled vegan items. That said, the vegan options are limited (mostly veggies or beans with vegan cheese, no jackfruit or plant-based proteins on the menu we received), and the food leans spicy. The guac w/ chips was super fresh but pricey at $16, and as a gluten-free vegan I found choices limited since they don't offer GF tortillas (only GF corn for the tacos). Condesa might work if you're looking for a calming late night meal, but won't be back since it didn't meet our needs for variety or value. Glad we gave it a go! 090925

    Casa Blanca margarita
    Monique H.

    As soon as you step inside you're welcomed with a greenery of very well taken care of pothos plants. I came by for a late night bite on a Thursday night and I would have completely forgotten I was in downtown Phoenix except for the booming bass from a nearby club, not their fault so no stars lost. To drink, I had the Casa Blanca margarita which was refreshing blend of citrus and sweet. To eat, I had the Asada Plate and the arrachera was the best I can remember having. It was marinated with great flavor and very tender! The beans and rice were cooked with spices that complimented the beef perfectly. The flour tortillas were fresh and delicious, I wish I could purchase them in bulk! My partner had the Sonoran Dog and two tacos: jackfruit Al pastor and apson. I had some of his papas fritas and they were the BEST! We sat at the bar and the service was welcoming and attentive. I feel like it was good value for the quality of food, service and atmosphere. I hope I can get back here soon!

    I've been meaning to check this place out since they moved from Crescent bBallroom and into this place where Liars Club used to be. It's also in the same building as Valley Bar and you're able to get some of the food from here while at Valley Bar. I love when they bring you free chips and salsa for the table and here the chips were all fresh and all 3 kinds of salsa were really delicious and unique. We also got the guacamole and it was really good. I had the al pastor burrito and loved it. It was seared on the outside give it a nice crunch, and the actual flavor of everything in the burrito really hit the spot. On top of everything the service was excellent and all the food came out really quickly. This is a great place to stop in for some really good food or even just a drink when downtown.

    El pastor taco
    Stephen L.

    They first start you off with free chips and salsa which were delicious. All green, red, and like a mild habanero. As for the main dishes: Chicken enchiladas-5/5- even though these enchiladas were not that big, the flavor of chicken with cheese topped with creama were perfectly seasoned. Tacos- 4/5- enjoyed the fresh corn made tortilla, but the el pastor meat could've been cooked more for a little charred flavor. Feels as though the meat were sitting in a warmer before getting served, but it was still good. Elote-3/5- the corn was good, but there was too much liquid/water (maybe a one off) in the bowl before you mix the corn season/cheese together. Service- 5/5: I forget our server name, but she was attentive and friendly

I remember touring the administrative offices, the dining hall, the classrooms, the residence halls, and other random buildings, but the most memorable stop was The Pub, which was rooted in much Thunderbird tradition. Now, years later with a new building in place at ASU, I was delighted to learn that The Pub still exists but in a new space (on the fifth floor). I recently stopped by to see what it looked like and try one of their dishes. In the spirit of Thunderbird, at The Pub, it is said that "global flavors and local charm come together to create an unforgettable dining experience." This is a great place for a meal with co-workers, hosting a gathering for a special celebration, or having a low-key meal. I took a book and gave it a try on my own. The sides include chicken wings, chicken tenders, hummus snack plate, or various ways to prepare fries. They have soup, salad, flatbread, entree bowls, and many burgers and sandwiches. They also have all sorts of drink options (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). It was national root beer float day (or something of the sort), so every burger came with a free root beer float. I jumped at that and got the Thunderbird Pub Burger (seasoned 6oz all beef patty, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, American Cheese, signature pub sauce Brioche Bun, served with Crispy French Fries). It was delicious!! In fact, it was better than delicious when paired with a free root beer float! They have regular hours of noon to 5 PM on weekdays (though they are open until 9 PM on Thursdays. They do have seasonal hours when they close early or entirely when classes are not in session. Happy hour specials are from 3-5 PM daily. While there are many great places to eat at ASU, I certainly recommend The Pub at Thunderbird.

One of the highlights was chatting with Dan, who has been bartending for eight years. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to answer questions about the brewing process and the brewery itself. It's clear he enjoys what he does and takes pride in sharing information with customers. I also learned that the brewery was founded by Megan Greenwood, and it's impressive to see how her vision has grown into a well-known local brewery. The brewing operation includes seven tanks, giving visitors a glimpse into the production side of the business. For anyone interested in seeing more behind the scenes, Greenwood Brewing does offer brewery tours. There isn't a set tour schedule, so it's best to ask staff about availability when you visit. One feature I thought was especially cool was the live Instagram follower counter displayed behind the bar. Watching the number update in real time was a fun and unique touch that added to the brewery's modern, community-focused atmosphere. The atmosphere was welcoming, the staff was engaging, and it was fun getting a closer look at the brewing process while enjoying quality craft beer. A great stop for both locals and visitors looking to support a Phoenix- Women owned brewery. The vibes are chill & semi-loud with music playing in the background.
