Ate breakfast here looking for a healthy option last weekend. I ordered the fruit and yogurt bowl. The fruit largely consisted of pineapple (which was great) and honeydew that was NOT RIPE AT ALL. Inedibly not ripe. The yogurt weirdly was too sweet for me too to where I couldn't finish my bowl. The lemon chia muffin was great though. I wouldn't order this again, but it was only like $8 I think? So not going to ruin my day! My boyfriend got the chia pudding and it was also very good. That being said, they had a lot of great options on the menu and our service was EXCELLENT. Really bummed I don't remember the servers name but he was GREAT! read more

I'm not sure what the ratings are based on. This is style over substance, ideas without execution. Weak coffee, with store shelf creamer; mushy sausage, blah bacon, boring pancake. Bland potatoes - mediocre service. I really feel like this is someone's idea of what farm to table is - without having ever been to a real farm to table restaurant. read more

We are out of town and thought this place looked good based off of Yelp, but the management is HORRIBLE. My boyfriend went to go pick up some food to go. The order was wrong and there was no proper clarification on the traditional breakfast. My boyfriend drove back thinking they would give us the correct order (waffle, eggs, and potatoes). The worker told him to wait for the manager because he was "cooking in the kitchen." They had the audacity to say we needed to pay for the waffle. The manager ends up saying he will make the waffle but didn't remake any of the food and now it's ice cold. The waffle was soggy, the butter completely melted, and they didn't give any syrup. How can you eat waffles without syrup? The eggs and potatoes were ok, AFTER we had to heat them up on the stove. Complete garbage place. Learn some customer service and care for your customers better. We are so disappointed for the waste of time and horrible service. read more

In AZ for a Softball tournament and needed something for breakfast. Found this place on Yelp. Looked delicious. Have it a shot. Food was great and so was the service. Pumpkin pancakes really good. So was the tri athlete bowl. Basically everything was really good and fresh. Here's what is impressive and makes me write this review. I asked for hot sauce and pico de Gallo. When I opened my bag, I had a bottle of cholula in there. That's love. Thank you Anselmo. You're the man. We will be back. read more

We stopped here, based on Yelp reviews. We're heading back to NJ, so a long day ahead of us. Our server Michael, couldn't have been nicer. My husband ordered the Avocado Toast with eggs, omelet style. I ordered Market Hash, with omelet style eggs. So fresh and delicious. Together with a full pot of coffee, on our table. Hubby was happy! I have never had a better breakfast, ever! Homemade Fresh bread with homemade jam. Fresh fruit. The vegetables/potatoes were plentiful and tasty, amazing combination of flavors. With such an amazing brunch, we didn't eat the rest of the day, our entire flight back to NJ! We would highly recommend this place! Looking forward to go to the Union, NJ location! read more

Eat here for sure! Our first time. I had the Farm House Breakfast Tacos. They were so flavorful! They come with a decent portioned side of delicious black beans in a small bowl, topped with some pico de gallo. The tortilla is soft, the chicken is plentiful, & the cheese, avocado, & pico de gallo add to the scrumptiousness. My wife had a Skillet Hash and all her dish was excellent as well.

I actually come here quite often so I'm just gonna give a general review because of the amount of times I come in. The service is decent it's not the best and not the worst. The lunch is just "okay" however the breakfast in my opinion is always delicious, I love it the elevated egg sandwich is great and the Bacado is also amazing if you want to try a omelette, the Croque Madame is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. I will post a picture of that when I'm done with this review, so to sum everything up the feel And atmosphere of the place is really nice and Pleasant the food is great but the reason this isn't getting any 5 stars is because the service is really average. read more

Went in search of somewhere to eat breakfast that was outside of normal routine and ended up here, thanks to Yelp. The food was so good! We didn't have a long wait when we visited. My friend ordered the breakfast sandwich and I got the lemon ricotta pancakes. The lemon rosemary potatoes she had on her plate were sooo good. She said the breakfast sandwich was done really well. I loved the pancakes. The only other place I have had lemon ricotta pancakes that left your mouth watering is in Vegas. So to now have somewhere close is incredible. The pancakes were ginormous! I couldn't even get through half the meal. It was worth the trip and definitely somewhere I would visit again and refer people to visit. read more

I got the entree with French toast potatoes and 2 eggs and bacon. My husband got Ham 2 Eggs toast and potatoes.

Wife has steel cut oats and fruit. Table (with 91 year old mother in law) shared 2 huge blueberry pancakes.

A lot of Yelp hype for lackluster service, subpar food and "just okay" ambiance. From the moment we arrived, service in this place was pretty close to nonexistent. The hostess was more involved with her college friends than to pay attention to my wife and I, who had put ourselves on the waitlist via Yelp. Once seated, our server was nonexistent. Our food took nearly 40 minutes to come off the line from the time we ordered. Mind you, the couple that sat down next to us 20 minutes after we were seated had their food in under 15. And no, we didn't order the world -- just an entree each, one a hash scramble and the other a turkey burger. But items take less than 15 to cook, make and plate. Obviously our server was not on it. For the hype, go somewhere else. In fact, the wife and I joked that we should've just gotten breakfast at the Jack in the Box down the road from our hotel... It would have been better and a heck of a lot quicker (and that statement says a lot). read more

Terrible location. My deliveries are always wrong, and not a friendly location. Don't recommend this location. Find another one. Parking is a nightmare. 10 spots to park in or else you gotta walk a half mile to the restaurant. Just to let you know their employees park in that 10 spot parking lot. So that leaves so many for customers.. I'll start ordering from another location. I spend almost $100 and they can't even double check my order is correct. Sad. Lazy.

This place is incredible! My daughter and I tried this place and absolutely loved it! I chose the Elote Mexican Street Corn Hash off their seasonal menu and couldn't have been happier with my decision!! Super flavorful and well put together- tastiness in every bite! The freshness of everything was awesome! My daughter tried The Traditional with extra crisp bacon and was NOT disappointed! Super food and huge plate of food that she couldn't finish! The ambience was awesome- very hip and decorated beautifully. We sat at a comfortable booth that had a painting of a multicolored rooster hanging next to us that i thought was one of the coolest paintings I've seen in a while! Everyone that worked here was awesome as well- from the hostess who sat us to the waiter ( I think his name was Johnny ) even excellent service carried through to paying the bill at the front.

There was plenty left in the salad after I housed my sandwich (elegantly) and I finally had to tap out and get a to-go box. Lovely little stop, would come back.

The strawberry topping also wasn't very appetizing--it seemed like it was meant to be more of a sauce, but it didn't quite work.

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. Great bar food and a good selection of beers. What's not to love?

The Tempura Green Bean, can't remember who ordered, but were good with the chipotle ranch sauce. With me, I'm all about the cocktails, so I treated myself to both the Froze Margarita & the Chi Chi. They call them spiked slushes, I call them "heaven sent" during the Arizona Summer. All of the food was a hit for the table and my family understood why I suggested EP for lunch! I said our Server was "electric" and that's because they made our experience very enjoyable. It was appreciated and I will return again for lunch and pickleball (in the evenings) during the hot summer!

Culinary Dropout

We had an awesome birthday celebration at Culinary Dropout. The facility is huge and incredibly…read morelively, with a fun outdoor area that has games for all patrons to play. The long bar is impressive and the drinks were excellent. I had the Campfire Vibes, which I highly recommend. For food, we started with the pretzel bites, which Culinary is known for, but I also tried the crispy katsu chicken sandwich, which was out of this world. Great food, great service, and an all-around great vibe. Definitely a fun spot to visit in Tempe.

Came here for lunch and it was really good. I got a salad with salmon and once again I forgot to…read moreask for dressing on the side but it was still good. Salmon was perfectly cooked and tasty. Plenty of parking outside. This restaurant is huge and can accommodate large parties should you need a place to bring friends and coworkers. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Five stars for an amazing sports bar! To be honest, I usually don't have high hopes when it comes…read moreto food at sports bars, but let me tell you how Four Peaks Brewing blew my mind! Service is wonderful and the menu has a wide selection. The chicken roll and hatch chili Mac are an absolute staple! They are huge portions so you can definitely share. What I loved about the mac & cheese is the creamy texture and great flavor! The crispy onions on top was unique and a great combo.

This is a great place to watch some sports games or UFC fights. The server was friendly and the…read moreservice was good. Four peaks is by ASU and definitely has a college brewery vibe. Lots of fun there for sure. The food is not bad! Pretty standard bar food. The AZ chicken rolls are one of my favorite appetizers. But this time I got the Brezelburger. Service: 8/10 Value: 6/10 Flavor: 8/10 Ambiance: 9/10 Cleanliness: 8/10 Overall I had a great time here and will definitely be back sometime in the future. It is a great place to go to have a couple of drinks and watch some games.

The service here is top tier always asking if I need a refill on my drinks or even if I place the empty glass on the counter it gets refill automatically!

Cooked to perfection sautéed mushrooms and onions and a pickle slice to garnish it, chefs kiss in my opinion!

Other than that, I like this place a lot & the specials are worth it.

Man, this place was GOOD. My partner and I came here planning to have a relaxed brunch, and it…read moreended up being one of those spots where you accidentally stay for hours because the atmosphere is just that enjoyable. We were drinking mimosas, eating, talking, and taking our time, and I really appreciated that we never once felt rushed to leave or pressured to keep ordering. A lot of places start making you feel awkward if you stay too long, but the service here stayed friendly and attentive the entire time we were there. The mimosas were honestly one of my favorite parts because they had so many different fresh juice flavors to choose from instead of just the typical orange juice. It made the experience feel way more fun and customizable, and you could actually taste how fresh the juices were. Every mimosa we tried was refreshing and super easy to drink. The food was also really good and paired perfectly with the drinks. Everything tasted fresh and well-made, and it all came out quickly even though the place was busy. I also loved that they offer both indoor and outdoor seating because it gives the place such a nice vibe depending on what kind of experience you want. We spent a good amount of time just relaxing, enjoying the weather, and hanging out, and it honestly made for such a nice date spot. Overall, this place has a really welcoming atmosphere, great service, delicious food and drinks, and the kind of environment that makes you want to stay awhile. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to for another long brunch.
