Came on a Saturday with my husband for a quick delicious bite to hold us over till dinner and…read moreTesota hit the spot! We ordered the harissa shrimp and charred cabbage, which were both flavorful and unique. I love ordering things that I wouldn't normally make at home when dining out and both dishes were just that. The harissa shrimp was super flavorful and garlicky. Thankfully it was served with bread or else we would've been licking the plate for the sauce. The charred cabbage is wood roasted with yogurt masala, shallot, romesco and pistachio pesto. My husband was a little iffy about the mention of yogurt masala but was won over after the first bite because all the flavors complement each other so well. Ambiance is great with lots of natural light due to the wall of windows along the street. A train passed by on this rare rainy afternoon, making our experience feel extra cozy. Service was good and it's nice they have both indoor and outdoor seating with windows. Extra bonus is the changing hands bookstore is attached so you can shop your heart out afterwards. All around good vibes!

The blue cheese definitely stole the show, but the wings were delicious on their own, too. Next, hubby and I shared the Caesar salad, and it was fantastic! Salty Ramano, shredded romaine, and crispy, buttery garlic croutons. At $14, it's definitely a splurge for a salad, but it was a solid choice! For our entrée, we shared the Aviator pizza and added caramelized onions and jalapeños. The crust was super thin and crispy - just how we love it! Overall, it was a great choice, although it lacked a little flavor. I think some hot honey would be the perfect addition next time. We finished by sharing the peanut butter brookie with ala mode with the table. This one was just OK for me. There was hardly any peanut butter flavor, and it was a little too rich for my taste, although others at the table enjoyed it more. Overall, a great first visit, and we'd definitely come back to try their roast chicken options.

We ordered a few zero-proof drinks, some pizzas, salads, chicken, and their special for the night, Butternut Squash Rigatoni. We had a great time catching up and celebrating, but everything tasted a little too salty. We were all so thirsty afterward. We also waited a long time for our to-go boxes and dessert. Our server was friendly, though, and I think he was just really busy. We did get a complimentary dessert for the birthday girl, which was nice. I'm glad we got to celebrate her birthday together. I try, I review, I check it off my list, but we might pick a different place for our next birthday dinner.

However, at Windsor it's more than just beer and wine and their cocktail list is amazing. My friend and I literally just went down the row and ordered that way bc we couldn't choose which we wanted most. Not one of them disappointed!! Service was great, super friendly and responsive. We sat on the patio which I love, they had misters on and it was fantastic. My only critique is that I hate the bathroom situation. There aren't enough for how crowded the place gets so you often find yourself standing in line. So, pro tip, go before you have to GO... if ya know what I mean, ha!

The food options are great too. I ordered the fried chicken after hearing so many good things about it. Unfortunately, it was a bit of a letdown for me. It was super crispy and juicy, but also really salty, which kind of overpowered the flavor. The mac & cheese was pretty basic, but the Matador and breakfast sandwich were both solid choices. And don't forget to check out the ice cream shop next door! They have some really good flavors. Overall, still a great spot for brunch, drinks, and an amazing deal.

I had heard good things about The Fry Bread House and during my latest trip to Phoenix I made sure to visit. I ordered the Combo Taco with extra red chile on the side. The fry bread itself was perfect. It had a nice crunchy texture on the outside, but was nice and fluffy on the inside. The red chile beef reminded me a lot of the traditional New Mexican red chile my family makes. Service was excellent. I went during the lunch rush and it took no more than 10 minutes to wait in line, order, and receive my food. The restaurant was nice and clean too. Definitely recommend visiting. This will be a must stop for me every time I go to Phoenix.

We got the Buscatini Limone and the Milanese. The buscatini was my favorite. The beautiful lemon lightened up the heavy cream and was absolutely delightful. I didn't know that lemon and heavy cream sauce could be paired together in such a lovely minuet, but this would put Fred and Ginger out of business. There is a free parking garage on the west side of the restaurant. There's even a sign that states which restaurants allow you to park there. The restaurant is loud and the seats are a little uncomfortable. But if you're a foodie like me, you'll be willing to ignore those things. They also don't seat you until everyone in your party is present. The menu is very small and they state that they don't make substitutions or accommodations for those patrons that don't ingest dairy or gluten free. It had a great lively atmosphere, but this isn't romantic for date night. But don't let that stop you from coming to enjoy the food. I can't wait to come back. They are on break until 09/22, so plan on going after they're back.

We love Welcome Diner, and have been here many times. It is definitely not fancy, but it is exactly…read morewhat it should be. It feels very hipster and very retro and it just has so much personality. There is a lot of outdoor seating in what is essentially a front yard. There are tables and string lights and lots of trees and there are even a couple of playground horses. When you walk in there is a hostess desk kind of pieced together with different pieces of furniture and above it is a turning disco ball. Could there be anything better? There are booths all the way around, and there are no tables - - but you can sit at the long counter and watch your food being made. That really is the best place to sit because it is so interesting to watch them. It's amazing to me that they can keep all those balls in the air and still make all this food so delicious. There is a small bar off to one side. Make sure you go to the bathroom. The bathroom is nothing special, just a room full of graffiti and stickers, but if you look up you'll see the ceiling covered with little pinatas and a little donkey in the hallway. The menu is just what you would think for a diner menu. You can order breakfast or some sandwiches, burgers, Mac and cheese, and there is a selection of dinner entrees. Sitting at the counter we saw a plate with a steak being prepared and it looked absolutely fantastic. We were not really very hungry, and just wanted a quick small bite. Have you got that Welcome Burger, and I got the Sasha. Hubby said his Burger was good, although it was quite small. The Sasha has smoked pork and they put the pork on the grill and it becomes a crispy kind of Patty of shredded pork, then they put the crispy shredded pork patty on a noble bun with coleslaw and a fantastic horseradish sauce. My sandwich was a 10 out of 10 for sure! I kind of feel like in Phoenix there are some areas that you can go to or not, but welcome diner is a place that everybody should go to at least once. I really want to go back for breakfast which is kind of shocking because I'm not a breakfast person.

I have never felt as unwelcome at a restaurant as I did during our visit to Welcome Diner…read more I arrived with three friends and two dogs, encouraged by the dog-friendly patio. Before we could sit down, a waitress abruptly warned us that rain was expected in three minutes, that the dining room had no available seating, and that pets were not allowed inside. We decided to take our chances, retrieved our own menus, and sat outside. More than 10 minutes passed without anyone acknowledging us, despite staff serving other customers. My friend even tapped on the ordering window and was ignored. When the same waitress finally returned, I asked for a Bloody Mary, and she appeared noticeably disappointed that we had decided to stay. Her response was an incredulous, "You're staying???" We explained that we were willing to take our chances with the weather, at which point she informed me that they were out of Bloody Mary mix. I then requested waters. Another 10 minutes passed before she dropped off the waters without taking our order. After another 10 minutes without service, we left, having spent approximately 30 minutes feeling ignored and unwelcome. We found a much better experience across the street, where we enjoyed attentive service, delicious food, and a welcoming dog-friendly patio. I understand that weather, seating limitations, and restaurant policies may be beyond a server's control. How guests are treated is not. For a restaurant called Welcome Diner, the irony was especially disappointing.

Overall, I had a good experience here, and the waitresses were very friendly and helpful.
