Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich
Nia F.

Came here for the first time for lunch. This was the perfect place for lunch if you're wanting something light or heavy, they've got options for you. We ordered bit of everything, and the service was great! The server was training another server and it was an awesome experience. The ambience was great with TVs and booths around the restaurant. Food was amazing and didn't realize it was a scratch kitchen until I got there.

Roasted Crispy Glazed Brussel Sprouts
Van K.

Review 1: Eureka! - Tempe, AZ (Lunch Visit) Stepping into Eureka! for a weekday lunch, I found the restaurant nearly empty, with perhaps three tables occupied. My server, likely named Natasha, was immediately warm and personable, which set a good tone. I ordered the fish tacos, roasted Brussels sprouts, and charred green beans. The dishes arrived in about 13 minutes--a reasonable turnaround--but I was surprised that the tortillas were cold, and the green beans were only lukewarm. The portion sizes are modest, which actually works well for solo dining since there's no pressure to share. While my server was excellent, the overall front-of-house experience had some rough edges. Walking in through the patio, I encountered a host stand blocking a door--odd given that the restaurant has a more attractive main entrance on the opposite side. Staff were sometimes gathered near the front while guests waited, and at one point, employees were eating at the bar top rather than in a back area, which felt unprofessional for an otherwise stylish space. Eureka! has potential, and the food has bright spots, but details like presentation temperature and guest perception of staff behavior are where the experience falters.

Dirty Martini

Great dirty martini and Bone Marrow , Wagyu Hamburger... so good! I have been here 3 times each time the fooy is great and fresh!

Fresno Fig
Niya B.

First off, the service was 10/10. Savannah was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. My friends shared a meal and needed several items on the side due to varying dietary needs and our server made sure everything came out perfectly. As for the food, the brussel sprouts were absolutely delicious. The chimichurri and orange glaze on them were the perfect pairing. The white truffle cheese sauce for the fries was indeed decadent. The only thing that could have made the Fresno Fig Burger any better would be a juicier, meatier patty. Still, the sweetness of the fig with the saltiness of the bacon and all the other ingredients was just so good together. Lastly, the drinks were both refreshing and delightful, and the ambiance was peaceful and relaxing.

Partially eaten Brussel Sprouts, really good
Sam S.

Met a couple of former work friends for tinker, they chose this location which I never knew existed. Parking is easy either way multiple garages close by. We chose from the Taste in Tempe 4 course menu. We all chose the fig burger, I chose the Brussels Sprouts for my app and cheesecake as a the dessert . All the food was good, burger cooked to medium instead of medium rare. Great location, staff was very friendly, a little slow but efficient. Definitely a good meal and worth trying.

They include basic sides *but for an upcharge without telling you. No I did not get an extra side of fries.
Salvador S.

First time trying out this location. ABSOLUTELY AVOID. They nickel and dime you in the most obnoxious ways that just pss you off. Apparently the overpriced dry burgers don't include fries- they don't tell you, you find out on the bill. The tasteless freezer potatoes cost an extra 3.5 literally 1$/oz bc no way I got more than 3 oz of broken and sad freezer AND FRYER burnt potatoes. The DJ-who kept leaving the booth to chat and drink with his friends at the bar- did not know what he was doing. Thinking you only need to match bpm to be a dj. TERRIBLE MIXES, slowing down songs so off pitch and mixing them with songs that shouldn't even be in the same room together. Oh- not to mention they don't validate parking for a parking garage with EUREKA PLASTERED all over it. Novus Place parking garage doesn't include Novus Place restaurants even though it clearly includes the restaurant name in the Novus place advertisements along the garage. Over priced- confused staff- no care for customers- Very sad establishment . I left with a raging headache, a disappointed palette- feeling taken advantage of and just mad all around. Do better.

Fresno Fig: fig marmalade / melted goat cheese / bacon / tomato / red onion / arugula / spicy porter mustard
Joneice B.

Good burgers. Nice atmosphere and the drinks were refreshing. Ended up dining here after a few drinks nearby. We were able to find parking across the street which you have to pay for with an app. Service was quick. We were able to easily pay for our order using our InKind app. My burger was really good. I got the fig, bacon and arugula special. It was very tasty and I would order it again. My husband got a triple smash burger...because he was smashed. I was surprised that he only ate half at the restaurant. However he ate the rest 20minutes after us getting home. I would come back here!!! Tater tots were good and crispy. Beef was high quality.

Ashley W.

Our waitress was amazing for being so short staffed and the kitchen being backed up. She kept us updated on the wait times and apologized and was really sweet. The food was really good I got the eureka American burger and the truffle fries were delicious! My friend got the salmon that was cook perfect and seasoned well. And you can never go wrong with fried pickles as an appetizer!! We also shared the turtle pie that tasted like a recesses pieces and the bourbon barrel cake which was delicious and warm and not super sweet. Def recommend both desserts !

Olya V D.

Eureka was beautifully designed, with a really great atmosphere -- stylish, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing with Liam. The food looked fantastic too. The burger, unfortunately, missed the mark. I ordered it medium-rare, but it arrived completely well-done, which made it dry and disappointing. The tater tots were good, though, and the space itself is absolutely worth seeing. So: excellent atmosphere, beautiful interior, but the burger needs better execution.

Double smash with toppings on side and sweet potato fries
Teresa A.

Beautiful location and love the interior of the restaurant. The hostess was nice but the customer service lacks on our waitress side. We werent greeted promptly and to even order water took awhile. $14 for a double smash plus $4 for sweet potato fries makes it quite pricey. I think it was the manager that brought our food and my boyfriend asked him for ketchup for me. He completely forgot as he walked around the restaurant. That was rude. Finally asked our waitress when she came by but I was not impressed with the service. Business slowed down and it took awhile to also get our check. Theres no promptness. I would give this place another try. Maybe not get the expensive burger or not even bother for sweet potato fries or maybe just sit at the bar. The star of it all was the mac and cheese balls. My boyfriend got the fish and chips and it was okay. If the breading was flakey with a perfect texture crunch like the mac and cheese balls it would be sooo good.

Crispy Glazed Brussel Sprouts
Amber M.

We really enjoyed dinner here! The atmosphere is so cute- perfect for a date night, girls night or sitting at the bar before an ASU game! We split multiple apps and had margaritas. I loved the skinny marg and my friend had the spicy one but said it's realllly spicy! The Mac bites were so good and the fried pickles! They also validated parking which is a nice perk to know about since parking can be tough!

Steak with chimichuri and bone marrow butter.   Very good!  Fries were top notch!! Signature Fries.     Steak Frites
Stephen F.

The Drinks were amazing!! The food was great!! The vibe was very modern and lively. Don't expect quiet, the acoustics make everyone's conversations loud. That being said I will definitely come here again. The fish and chips were particularly good for my tastes! Also we had great conversations with the bartender.

Erin L.

We went on our last day before dropping kid off at college and we were really impressed. The mac & cheese balls are delicious. Their drinks are really fun. The berry dirty soda was my favorite and there's a salmon Caesar salad that was delicious. It was like blackened salmon. Truffle fries are really good atmosphere is cool. We really liked it and we'll be back. The only bad thing is at the parking garage. The elevator does not work so you're gonna have them downstairs in that heat.

Mac N' Cheese Balls   Very underwhelming!

SOCIETY! What a beautiful little hidden gem in Tempe! And WOW, what a wonderful experience!…read more First, a little tip on finding this place. Society is located on the second floor of the plaza, and you might actually walk right past the entrance! If the line for Tempe Improv gets long, it can partially block the double doors. Just look carefully, and you'll find your way in! Once you walk inside, it's like stepping into a completely different world! The atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous! Romantic, trendy, a little glamorous, and definitely POPPIN'! Between the beautiful chandeliers, cascading flowers, colorful lighting, and stylish décor, I couldn't stop looking around. Whoever designed this place did a fantastic job! We had reservations, and I would HIGHLY recommend making them. This place can fill up quickly, and I can certainly understand why! Now, let's talk about the FOOD! Several people had recommended that we try the Whipped Feta appetizer, so of course we had to order it. OH MY GOODNESS! This was hands down one of the most delicious appetizers I've had in a LONG time! The whipped feta was creamy, with this wonderful honey combination in the middle that brought everything together beautifully. Paired with the bread, it was absolutely fantastic! I'm not kidding when I say I could've ordered that appetizer and made an entire meal out of it! LOL! If you visit Society, PLEASE try the whipped feta! For dinner, I ordered the Chicken Alfredo, which came with their spinach-infused pasta. And WOW, that was delicious too! The pasta was wonderful, the sauce was flavorful, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Definitely not your ordinary Alfredo! My friend ordered the Penne alla Vodka, which looked delicious, although I didn't get a chance to sample it. Guess that gives me another reason to return! And can we talk about the SERVICE?! Absolutely wonderful! Our server was attentive, friendly, and always checking on us to make sure everything was taken care of. We never felt forgotten, and everything flowed so nicely throughout our dinner. Then came a little surprise! They found out we were celebrating my birthday and brought out a birthday dessert! How sweet was that?! I certainly wasn't expecting it, and it made an already wonderful evening even more special. Between the amazing atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent customer service, Society really impressed me. Would I return? ABSOLUTELY! HANDS DOWN! This is a wonderful place for a date night, birthday celebration, or just an evening out with friends. It's beautiful, lively, and has the food and service to back it up. And you better believe I'm ordering that whipped feta again! In fact, I might not even share it next time! LOL! Thank you, Society, for such a memorable birthday dining experience!

I come here pretty regularly and it honestly never disappoints! I've never had a bad meal here. The…read moreambiance is sooo cute, very girly and definitely a photo worthy spot. It's a little dark inside, but the flowers are gorgeous and they even have the cutest little fairy garden box! The service didn't catch my attention but I'm sure they did fine. Food wise, the pasta alla vodka is pretty good. I've definitely had better, but it's still enjoyable! The truffle fries were delicious, and the chicken orzo was actually really tasty. Definitely a place I enjoy coming back to! The bathroom photo op area is beyond beautiful!

I actually Yelp'd it prior to going and the menu I saw a pic of in Yelp is no longer the brunch menu. When I asked about a substitution they did not hesitate and the chef was all over making me my meal! The service is also really great here and everyone is super friendly. They offer, breakfast, brunch on the weekends, lunch and dinner so I would get over and try!

I've been here a total of four times prior and never had complaints. Today was different. I…read moreunderstand the changes of seasonal menu but I just seem like the recent menu had no main concept. My boyfriend got the pizza and it tasted as if it were a frozen pizza. I got the bang bang shrimp and it was good (6/10). The problem that I have is the pistachio gin fizz was an absolute no! I am a HUGE fan of pistachio and gin so immediately I had to get his drink but it was beyond mediocre. Are we drinking only syrup??? My last complaint is the coconut tres leches dessert.... Do we actually know how to make tres leches or we just naming desserts however we want? Just curious. It came out super hot, steaming more like a molten cake. As a Hispanic woman, I was expecting a creamy moist cake to celebrate my graduation but this was not it as well. Last but not least if the bald manager with the orange shirt wants to eat in the back of the kitchen, not the problem I get it (I work at restaurants) HOWEVER shoving your two index fingers into your mouth to get your debris out was my last straw. Like I said I like this restaurant and never had problems but today felt like a fever dream there.

Blanco seemed like it would be a good choice, however I enjoyed it more than I anticipated. Sitting at the bar, service was pretty good. The bartenders were busy making drinks at times, but overall were attentive. The queso was delicious! We started with the appetizer sized serving and the chips were very good with a thick texture and good crunch. We saved some of the queso, intending to use it for dipping with the mixed grill fajitas we split. I will put that queso on anything, it's tasty! On the mixed grill fajitas platter, the carne asada was the item we enjoyed the least. The shrimp was definitely my favorite. Perfectly juicy and grilled, and had a great sauce over the top, it's labeled as spicy but I didn't find it to be too spicy, it just had a good flavor. The chicken was very juicy and then the steak was okay. I would definitely come back to try the short rib tacos, as other reviewers said were pretty tasty. Blanco reminded me of yummy Tex-Mex restaurants I've had in Texas, although its description is Sonoran Mexican food. Maybe it depends on the dish ordered. Either way, both are delicious food styles. And my rating reflected my overall enjoyment of the green chili queso, fresh chips & salsa, and juicy shrimp. I think the difference between 4-5 stars for me, comes down to having a nice ambiance, attentive service, and some items standing out. My cocktail was decent, however I wouldn't order that particular margarita again, I don't love mescal but I keep trying drinks that have it because I do like cocktails that have a note of the mescal flavor not the predominant taste. I did check with the bartenders before I ordered it and let them know, they said it's mild mescal taste, but I think it was pretty strong. We had missed happy hour by coming in 530pm, it ends at 5pm. I'd like to come back next time for HH. And thank goodness they are smart enough to provide free 2 hour parking in the Novus garage close by . That makes so much sense for customers. Some reviewers said the restaurant doesn't have any parking options besides valet. That isn't correct, just park at the appropriate garage and ask the staff for a validation ticket to scan when leaving.

We brought my Mom in to celebrate her birthday. It was a first time for our entire party…read more Beware that you will need to park in a parking garage and walk over. Validated parking is available for up to 2 hours for customers dining @ Blanco. The service wasn't great. Our waitress sucked. The food I ordered was very good. I got machaca enchiladas! I heard from my husband and children that their food was mediocre & not something they'd want in the future. I will say that the rice was odd. For a Mexican cuisine, I never expect rice that tastes like it's seasoned with only butter and Parmesan. This was a bit awkward. Our chips came out & we noticed that the bowl was dirty. That was gross... there was a swipe of dried on beans or something similar stuck to the side of the dish I thought it was cool that they have a giant window into the kitchen, so guests can look inside while they wait for their food. I love their QR code payment feature! It made it really easy to split the bill for our party. I've never seen that before & hope more restaurants will implement that! All in all, it was a cool place to try out!
