This was a nice restaurant but didn't have a feel where I think you'd be out of place in more casual attire. I had the lamb meatballs app, which was delicious.

I would recommend trying this restaurant if you're in the area and want a nice meal that is mid priced, in a nice setting that will not disappoint.

Our server was friendly and helpful, answering questions and providing recommendations. We ordered a couple of Mother Road IPAs to accompany our meal. The beers arrived after a few minutes. Cold and refreshing. The food followed about 10 minutes later. The burgers were juicy and delicious. I ordered mine medium rare and the chef nailed it! The sweet potato tots were fresh tasting, crunchy and a little sweet. We truly enjoyed our dining experience and look forward to returning. Highly recommended for a great burger!

The PB&J burger was disappointing. This is their flagship burger and I didn't think it was very good. You barely taste any PB or J, if at all, and it's just a plain burger with an oozing mess. Would love a stronger PB&J flavor on this one. The inside is fine, nothing out of the ordinary, but I must say our server was fantastic. I'd gladly come back and try other options since a lot of them sounded really good.

I consider Little Miss to have the potential to be better than Goldies. Why potential? Read on... THEY USE TOO MUCH SALT! It's an OBSCENE amount of salt and it takes this BBQ from a 10/10 to a 2/10, making it almost inedible. I've had it several times but don't go often because of this issue. I have to guess that people cover it up with the sauce, which I don't use. Maybe the sugar in the sauce balances it out. Good BBQ doesn't need sauce. I have never experienced anything quite as tragic before. I really do wish they would back off on the salt by at least 80%. Just to be clear, I drink 1,000 mg electrolyte every day to replace what I sweat out during endurance running, so I'm no stranger to salt. This place is next level. STOP WITH THE SALT!

The chopped brisket was the better of the two briskets, but the pork belly burnt ends were the real star. I'd honestly come back just for those!

Definitely go early, as they can sell out!

They have a selection of burritos, ceviche, flautas and salads, but tacos are a thing here. I decided on a shrimp taco and a green chili chicken taco. Lunch came with a six piece sauce pack, so you can customize the tacos to your liking. I'd been thinking of Mexican food and these tacos were good! I had a long drive back to the hotel, or would have indulged in one of those icy cold and delicious looking drinks, like the Diego Margarita or Fuego Fresa. The servers are friendly, prices are reasonable and this restaurant is popular with tourists and locals. The air conditioning is perfect for getting out of the heat and the food and ambiance make it even better! They also have patio dining for cooler nights. On my next visit, I'll return to Old Town, one of the best areas in Phoenix. It offers great restaurants like Diego Pops--it's on my "must come back and try a margarita" list.

It has a lively atmosphere that's great for meeting up with friends. Servers are always friendly and food comes out FAST! One of the best things about Diego Pops is their happy hour, which runs every day from 3-6 pm. I also just found out they do $3 tacos all day on Mondays... what a steal! The food is always delicious. My go-to order is the braised green chili chicken taco and the charred steak tacos. They also have frozen margaritas, and I'm already planning my next visit because I HAVEEE to try the blue raspberry flavor. Reliable place to meet up with friends, enjoy good food/drinks without breaking the bank!

I am actually so upset. We ordered at 10:09 and recieved the cappuccino about 10:15. We waited and waited, watching the 3 workers scramble for something to do. Cleaning up the bar area, scraping bird poop outside, count the leaves on the trees. Idk. I understand they're not the ones responsible for the slow kitchen. We waited 30+ minutes for our food and finally at 10:41 am we got it. Wanna know what we ordered? Avocado toast and a steak melt. One of the simplest things on the menu. And remember there were maybe 2-3 solo customers doing computer work or at the bar, who had already ordered and were just enjoying the day. The only other customers vying for an order from the kitchen was a family with some small children. I cannot fathom coming here at a time that is more busy and having to compete with multiple other parties to get my food the same business day. Do not come here if you're really hungry. We ordered at 9:15ish to eat there and even that felt like it took long, when there was even less than 3 customers there. Thank you for the cold cappuccino and your lack of urgency for customers. I'm so glad we tipped y'all twice to do the bare minimum and serve us food whenever you felt like it.
