    Winter spiced french toast
    Tiffany S.

    TLDR; give this place a visit and try all the things! I wish I could give this experience more than 5 stars. 10/10 most definitely recommend. I had never been here before and we decided to see if they were open (after learning on Christmas they were closed). This surpassed all expectations. The photos beforehand said that I would love this place and they were not wrong. We were immediately greeted and sat. Natiesha, our server, was extremely helpful with recommendations and attentiveness. The restaurant was cozy with great vibes and very inviting. We had management come check on us, and made sure everything was good. Now for the best part, the food. We tried the crabby omelette, the chili verde huevos rancheros, and the seasonal winter spiced monkey bread french toast. We tried the herbed potatoes and biscuit with the house made jam (please order this jam, you won't regret it), and the polenta bites. Those polenta bites were probably the best side! The huevos rancheros had a great balance of flavor and heat and tenderness in the pork. The crab on the omelette was cooked to perfection. Overall, this is a place I look forward to repeating because there is so much more on the menu to try!

    As soon as we walked in, I knew we had found the right cafe. We were immediately greeted by a very friendly staff, seated promptly, and coffees right away. Talked away in a shopping center, the establishments still has plenty of seating, is well decorated, and is very welcoming. The sandwiches were absolutely incredible. Perfect portion sizing, delicious accoutrements, and aesthetically appealing. Overall, this is a great place for brunch, breakfast, or lunch!

    Went to get breakfast with some friends in Tempe and I saw Daily Dose had a green chile omelet and I couldn't get it off my mind so I had to have it. It's a cool little spot, clean inside and the service was good. The food was ok....like super average. Nothing was great and nothing was bad. Compared to the price, it was disappointing. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd hit Sunny's Diner down the road.

    Dry busy eatery with a great vibe and friendly staff. You can find anything you want from coffee to cocktails. Plenty of vegan, gluten free and or "healthy options " for breakfast or lunch. They still offer a variety of omelets, pancakes, waffles but so many other interesting options also. We really enjoyed our breakfast here on Sunday and plan on visiting again.

    Lox Benedict

    Got the traditional burger -- it was super good! The Lox Benedict was also really tasty. I got a side of fruit with it, but the portion was tiny... definitely more of a toddler-sized serving than what I expected. Service was pretty mid. It wasn't busy, but we still waited quite a while for our server to come by the table. Also, it was extremely loud inside, which made it a little hard to fully enjoy the experience.

    Daily Dose has long been on my list to try. I finally made it in recently. And it was delicious! I look forward to coming back and trying other items on the menu. This time I had chorizo burrito with potatoes and the white chocolate sugar bean iced coffee. I didn't have time to sit and enjoy my meal there so I got it to go and the service was great even just to go. I'll come back and dine in next time, but I'll definitely be back.

    Winter-Spiced Monkey Bread French Toast
    Tammy M.

    My food was great here on Saturday and the service was also great. I had the hangover sandwich and it was delicious. We all shared the monkey bread for dessert and it was yummy!

    Sautéed spinach
    Tonia C.

    Located in a parking lot adjacent to 2 hotels and beside Spinatos. Well lit and open space. Very clean with a bar to dine in and separate table seating. Customer service was spot on when cashing in for my take order. Allergies accounted for with suggestions. Now on to the breakfast. Best omelette I've had in years and it was without cheese. So flavorful it held it's on. Healthy sides for all diets. Instead of potatoes and fruit, I opted for sautéed spinach and sliced tomatoes. The spinach was very good and flavorful. They also have gluten free bread toast. Definitely open for a return visit and highly recommend.

    Cinnamon roll pancakes
    Marla R.

    Very nice place for breakfast and lunch. The restaurant was clean and seats are comfortable. Our server was friendly and a manager even came by to check on us. The cinnamon roll pancakes is a very generous portion and I took a lot home. But I wouldn't get them again. They were good but it was just too much of one thing. Next time I will go with basic eggs and bacon.

    Great breakfast spot in Tempe! My family and I went to Daily Dose on a Saturday morning. It was super busy and our waitress was attentive and quick to bring our food out. I ordered pancakes and they were bomb. I would definitely go back!

    The Chuck Box is an extremely well known and popular Gem located at the heart of the ASU Tempe…read moreCampus. It has been around for DECADES and there is no question as to why it is still there. When visiting the Chuck Box know that it is cash only (ATM on-site), and super popular. There WILL be a line. The line does move extremely fast, due to the fact that the line cooks are definitely not waiting until you get to the counter to take your order. They will call out to anyone in line (regardless of where in line you are) and take your order, yelling it out if needed. It is such a unique and fun experience. The burgers are not overpriced and are phenomenal! It is self serve toppings, after you pay for your order you can go to the topping bar and add as much to your burger as your heart desires. They additionally have other food on the menu such as veggie burger, chicken sandwhiches, chicken tenders, onion rings, fries, fried zuchinni, fried mushrooms, and more. I have had both the fried zuchinni and mushrooms and I would definitely recommend both options! Since it really popular, be aware that there is limited seating and it is crowded. It is additionally extremely warm (especially during the summer) inside the building due to the grill. If you have not already checked out the Chuck Box, I would definitelly recommend that you check it out as soon as possible!!!

This…read moreplace is ok, maybe even good, but not what I consider excellent or the best burgers in Arizona. For cash only, the prices seem a little high to me also. To start, my burger tasted pretty good. The cheese was good. Bun was a little dry and stale. The lettuce was yellow and chopped and looked several days old and slightly rotten. Two of my tomatoes had active mold growing on them. It was too dark inside to see it but we ate in the car and saw the moldy spot then. The fries are good but way too salty. We really liked the fried mushrooms. But we made our own dipping sauce which was better than the ranch they give you: mix 2/3 mustard and 1/3 Mayo. Tangy and delicious. We get these at "The Windmill" when we go to the jersey shore and the sauce that comes with the fried mushrooms is a horseradish sauce which is amazing (hint hint, Chuck Box). I would eat here again but bring a flashlight to inspect the produce and lower my expectations. It was good, not great. It smelled kind of off in here also. The AC and vents probably need to be cleaned.

We choose to sit indoors. The restaurant is very cozy with dimmed lighting to add to the evening ambiance. It has a casual feel but you can dress up or down. Some people were casual and some more dressed up. We were seated at the front by the stage where live music was about to start. I thought this would be nice since I do enjoy live music. Well the speakers were facing right at our table and it was noticeably loud when the entertainer began to play. We asked for another table. We could not hear ourselves talking. I ordered a cocktail, The Giddy Up Espresso Martini. That was very delicious! They do have a full bar, it's nice to have choices as far as alcoholic beverages. Our food, Fish & Chips, BBQ Nachos, Aged Manchego, Crusty Bread Garlic Oil & Balsamic, and Molinari Sopressata. Everything was absolutely delicious! The fries with the Fish were perfect. My favorite besides the Martini. was the Crusty Bread with Olive Oil and Balsamic. Our server was the best! Amiriya made sure our drinks stayed filled and asked us what we thought about the food. Even on this busy night. After our meal we walked around the outside seating and game area. This place is a fun place to meet with others especially with the outdoor/patio game area. I would love to come back when in AZ.. But, I don't have to wait until then because we have a CD restaurant in the San Diego area! Woohoo! I can't wait to try some other dishes and have another Espresso Martini. I probably would pay for a shot of Bailey's added to the drink.

One of my favorite things about Dog Haus is that they have delicious vegan options alongside their regular menu. The vegan burgers and hot dogs are so good you wouldn't know they're plant-based.

The staff has always been friendly, but service can slow down when it gets busy since the bartender is often also taking orders at the front counter. The only other downside is that certain seating areas can have a sewer-like smell, likely from being near the lake, which isn't ideal while eating. Overall, the food, drinks, and friendly staff keep us coming back. Definitely worth a visit!

There's also a bar space that runs along the window that separates the small dining room and the patio. There are a few tables inside as well as some bigger tables on the patio. The patio is nice with lots of shrubs right outside the rail. The murals on the wall are pretty darn cool - - they're like enlarged historic photos of the area. I love them! And I'm not sure who's giant face is hanging on the ceiling but it's short a spark conversation. The menu here has a little something for everyone. There's the regular loaded fries and wings, salads, and a nice election burgers. We ordered the Philly Salad and the Very Summer Salad with a side order of fries. They make their own ranch, and it is good. I will say they don't seem to skim on salad ingredients either - - the Philly salad was covered with shaved beef, and my berry salad had a lot of chicken and tons of blue cheese. The fries were delicious - - slightly seasoned and crispy. This place is clearly dog friendly. In fact the day we went there was a sweet Pitbull named Daisy who literally hopped up on a bar stool and sat there like a little angel the entire time. The bar had a dog full of water that they sat down on the counter next to her owner's beer. They also have dog biscuits to give. It made my day to see that sweet little dog hanging at the bar having a treat. This really is kind of a spot that feels like it's probably the hangout spot of many people.
