great atmosphere, the food was excellent, a nice menu with some delicious choices. very good restaurant

It's a cool space, nice energy, and a staff that actually pays attention, which shouldn't be rare, but somehow is. Humble Bistro stays in its lane - consistent, dependable, the kind of place you don't have to overthink. Last night, the table went in on a margarita pizza add ricotta, meatballs, caprese, and short rib pappardelle. And yeah, HB is consistent, but this round came back a little uneven. The pizza leaned too long in the oven, Forno bread punched hard with salt, and the caprese felt a bit "overproduced," like it was trying to impress instead of just being. Service was excellent! Best moment of the night came after dinner. I asked for a standard Italian digestif, no dice. Swung to a go-to dessert liqueur, also a no. I feigned disappointment, and the server, without missing a beat, informed me: "We're French, not Italian." Hmm.... See you next time, Humble Bistro, where we'll probably go in on another pizza, pappardelle, meatballs and the chicken parm.... OUI OUI!! read more

Humble Bistro absolutely lived up to its name--in the best way possible. The food was amazing, and I genuinely ate every single bite on my plate. I ordered the short rib grilled cheese with fries, and it did not disappoint at all. My buddy and his wife ordered an appetizer that we all shared, and it was really good too. They also had the lasagna and a pasta dish, and from what I saw (and tasted), those were just as impressive. The whole experience felt comforting but elevated, like the kind of meal that surprises you with how good it is. I would definitely visit again. The food is great and will humble you in the best kind of way. read more

I'm actually pretty disappointed. I've been here a few times once for dine-in and a few times for take-out. The first time I got the short rib pasta it was to die for- creamy, tender, flavorful and everything was well balanced. The last few times the pasta was just eh, this most recent time the short rib wasn't even broken apart and it felt like the dish was just thrown together. Not sure if management or chefs have changed but it's not the same as it was a few years ago. Humble fries are really good topped with parmesan and chili flakes but aren't spicy. They come with some fun sauces too. Like a sweet sauce, ranch, and an aïoli. These have been consistently good every time! Location is really nice since it's in the Desert Ridge area and it's a nicer casual restaurant. Inside is smaller but there is a small seating area outside that either has fans in the summer or heater in the winter. Great place for a date night or a night out with the gals! read more

All the food we ordered was delicious! We polished every plate. Only thing not pictured is the crispy Brussels sprouts which we demolished in seconds. Service was great and they took good care of us. The ambiance was nice and quaint. A little loud but not bad at all. Recommend. (My friends have gone 4 more times since I took them) read more

My friend and I had a quick lunch at the bar. We each ordered a Yes Way Rose, spilt the Caprese and the This Lil Figgy Flatbread. We forgot how good the Caprese was. It was a hot day so the cold tomatoes, pesto, and mozzarella were perfect. They only serve the Caprese with one piece of Forno bread so we had to ask for more. It's so good to dip into the pesto olive oil marinade the tomatoes come in. Another great lunch at Humble! read more

Grabbed a quick bite in between sips of wine during the Wilcox Wine Festival. Enjoyed some green chili chicken enchiladas and they hit the spot. I couldn't tell you how many I got since they were buried in lettuce. But they were tasty! The bar service was great and my food was out fairly quick. read more

I'm not going to be humble with this one: Humble Bistro is an excellent restaurant. I've visited twice: once was my second meal upon moving to Phoenix and the other was most recently on a Thursday evening for dinner. Located on High Street in Desert Ridge, you'll be able to find free parking in the various lots surrounding this district or the garage. Since I'm within walking distance, I've been on foot both times I've visited. Ambiance (4.5/5): Humble Bistro is a good looking restaurant. It achieves a nice balance of being trendy and nice while still feeling homey and comfortable. I sat at a half booth upon my most recent visit. There's also a small patio. It's a relatively small restaurant and was packed almost to the brim on a Thursday evening. It can get a little loud, but not overly burdensome. And the lights are dimmed down a bit which creates a nice ambiance. Service (4.5/5): Our waitress did a fantastic job taking care of us. She was friendly (a smile goes a long way), attentive, and efficient. Which is all you hope for, especially when a restaurant is busy while you're dining there. I was trying to decide between three options, and she gave me her recommendation. And she was on target with it. Drinks (N/A): I had an Arnold Palmer, so not much to write home about. With that being said, they have a full bar, including a wine list and cocktails. Food (4.5/5): I had the chicken parm which is served with linguine. This is a classic Italian dish that I've had countless times over the years. And this was the best one I've ever had. The chicken cutlet was fried just right. The breading, tomato sauce, and mozzarella sauce were perfect. It's a relatively simple dish, but Humble Bistro somehow does things better than anywhere I've tried. And it was a filling portion too. While the menu is Italian-centric, there are new American options too. It's an interesting menu with a lot of appetizing choices. For the quality of the food you're getting, Humble Bistro is moderately priced. Which makes it a big winner in my book. There are a lot of good dining options on High Street, Humble Bistro might just be my favorite. read more

Great vibes and excellent service--Humble Bistro is a must-visit. We went for an early Friday evening dinner for three and were seated right away, though it quickly became clear a wait was building as the place filled up. We ordered the Gentleman's Pizza, Cauliflower Tahina, and 3-Ball meatballs, along with the special Humble Old Fashioned. Everything was outstanding from start to finish. Highly recommend. read more

From the variety of seating options to the chandeliers to the copper ceiling, I really enjoyed the aesthetic of Humble Bistro. It gave me vibes of NYC, but I was told it was designed as a French Bistro. Whichever it was, it works! We were greeted as soon as we entered, and seated immediately as it wasn't too busy. (We usually eat early when we go out to avoid the crowds.) Our server, Alexis, was awesome! She was witty and charming, and chatted easily with every table. She's exactly the type of server every restaurant should have. We ordered the Forno Bread, Humble's answer to garlic bread - house made sourdough with garlic, cheese and olive oil, plus a kick of heat with calabrian flakes. Great flavor and plenty to share. The menu had so many delicious looking options. I decided on the Pasta Rosa and Meatballs - pappardelle pasta with 3 meatballs, whipped ricotta and fresh basil. Now I can be a bit picky about meatballs, but these were excellent. Pasta was perfectly cooked and the only thing I might have liked was a little more ricotta. (I'm a big fan of ricotta.) The portion size was perfect. So often it's a huge bowl of pasta and 2 measly meatballs, but this was an even ratio of pasta to meatballs and yet I still had enough to take home for tomorrow's lunch. Hubby had the Forno Short Rib, which is a 12hr braised short rib over Humble Fries. He loved it! The short rib was fork tender, and practically melted in my mouth (yes, I tried a little), and the fries are well cooked and full of flavor. Combined with the short rib - a flavor explosion! We also split a creme brulee for dessert. Delicious and a nice size for one, but as we were bordering on full from our meal, it was a perfect sharing size for us. We know we'll be back! read more

Humble bistro is located on High St in Desert Ridge which is a really cool street with restaurants, bars, and shops. This is such a great location to grab dinner and drinks with some of friends which is what brought us here! The server was very friendly and helped walk us through the menu and explained each dish to us. Ultimately, we knew we wanted to try the pastas which sounded amazing to us. The Cremini Sacchetti was our favorite! I loved the truffle taste in the brown butter sauce, the truffles weren't overpowering and complimented the pasta perfectly. We also loved the Short Rib which was braised for 12 hours and falling apart. I would love to go back and try the bruschetta dishes that they are known for! read more

My second time here and it looks like they have a new addition to Humble Bistro which is called Humble Oysters and Bubble. Me and my coworker shared the appetizer meatballs , humble brussels, and gentlemen pizza. All were good except for the humble brussels, it tasted burnt so it had a bitter taste to it. But the meatballs were perfect seasoned and the pizza was full of different flavor profile from savory to sweet to a little spiciness to it. read more

So called and message said no reservations but you can add your name to a wait list. Spoke to a girl and put in my name and number. She said it would be about an hour. Showed up 45 minutes and first hostess said they don't have a wait list. Second girl said they did but couldn't find my name and acted like it was my fault. I showed them the call on my phone and no apology but repeated they don't have my name. We left and will never return. Please hire some competent staff. read more

Girls night and this place was very nice. They have a cozy indoor/outdoor area and the music is pretty loud so I would suggest sitting outside if you don't like loud music. The service was good and they answered all of our questions and made some good suggestions, like the humble Caesar. My only complaint is that I wished the wings were crispier. The skin was a little too soft for my liking. Would like to come back here for date night and trying their pasta and pies! read more

Fantastic. Simply fantastic service and food quality. The restaurant is clean and all of the servers seem very nice and helpful. They all seem to enjoy working there, which comes across in their friendly smiles and amazing attitudes. The whole atmosphere / vibe is professional-chill. (If that is a thing?) They have a tone of sourdough items and the pricing is great. They even carry Don Fulano Anejo!! We will be back very soon! read more

Rule #1- always order the short rib. Ordered the short rib pasta dish at Humble Bistro. It was delicious. The atmosphere is nice, quiet off high street. I've been to Humble Pie before, I think Humble Bistro is better. read more

Love love love all their food. Ingredients are fresh. They do a great job with their brussels sprouts, Caesar salad- my partner really enjoyed the Caesar dressing, and I switched it to their vinaigrette, sandwiches, pizza, hamburgers! It's pretty impressive when you can get all of that right! Their service- well... it's average at best (some visits have had terrible service to average service). The $10 froze is spectacular though so I still go back! read more

I went to brunch with my family and I want to start with the fact that the service was great. Every person we interacted was so nice and they were so attentive. The savory foods were delicious. For instance, the wings were so tender and crispy. I do wish they would've tossed the wings in the sauce but overall delicious. The Humble Hash was so well rounded, very flavorful and filling. Just needed some salt and hot sauce to perfect it. The sweet plates were not it. The waffle seemed to be crystallized which just made it overly sweet and the cream on it had a lot of orange zest which overpowered the whole thing. Sometimes there's good in simplicity and I look for simplicity when it comes to a waffle. Same thing with the cinnamon roll. Over sweet and too much orange zest. read more

Had a great evening at Humble Bistro! The food and service were outstanding. I had the lasagna, which was delicious- do not miss. The two sauces were amazing and it was so fresh. My husband had one of the pizzas, which he enjoyed. I would pass on the porno bread, which I thought was going to be crunchy crusty sour dough but was just flat bread. Next time I will get one of the salads because they looked so good at the table next to us. We also ordered a bottle of the Silk and Spice red blend wine based on another review (pretty good, next time I might try something else). FWIW, Wine bottles are 50% off if you take an unopened bottle to go. The atmosphere is bustling yet somehow intimate. We talked to the people sitting next to us but also felt alone. It is close quarters if it is something you care about. Our server (who was training another server) was great and offered a lot of great recommendations. I think we also saw the owner or manager who thanked us for coming. Love this spot. It's super busy so make sure you join their waitlist online before you go. read more

I had a couple of friends recommend this place so I had a date night with my hubby and had dinner here. I'm so thankful for the recommendation. It is amazing here. What a hidden gem if you don't visit High Street often. The ambience, vibe, service is Devine. We ordered The Gentlemen Pizza, the lasagna, Brussels and Short rib. No complaints here. All were delicious and savory. We ordered a bottle of red blend from Portugal, called Silk and Spice... wow!!! Amazing wine my husband couldn't stop talking about it lol This is going to be my new favorite spot . We have some friends visiting us in the next couple weeks and we already know we are bringing them here . They also have an amazing outside area and lit up with bistro lights. Also shout out to Alexis, who was our amazing server read more

We had such a fun night at Humble Bistro! The food, drinks, and overall atmosphere were all spot on. We started with a Humble Marg and a Tequila Old Fashion--both were well-balanced and delicious, especially that smoky depth in the old fashion. For food, we had the 3 Balls Meatballs (so good--tender, flavorful, and comforting) and the Forno Bread, which was perfectly warm, crusty, and ideal for dipping. The Wedge Salad is always one of our go-to's, and theirs did not disappoint--super fresh and loaded with all the good stuff. Service was great--friendly and attentive without hovering. The only tiny miss (and honestly not a big deal) was that we asked a couple times for salt and pepper and never ended up getting it. Didn't ruin the night at all, just something small. We'll absolutely be back. Humble Bistro hits the sweet spot between casual and elevated--you can grab a drink and relax, but still feel like you're treating yourself to something a little special. read more

Great vibe and ambiance! Sampled a wide variety and everyone in our group raved about the food! Service was helpful and friendly!

Best pizza in the area. Ceasar salad was great too. Very busy location. The food and drinks were excellent and the service was great!!! The restaurant was a little loud. Definitely going back. read more

Humble Bistro never disappoints--always delivers! It's our go-to date night spot in City North. We love sitting at the bar for a more intimate and fun vibe.

It was like a spring hug in a glass, not too sweet, but light and bright! We shared the Forno Bread, it was great! Soft and fluffy bread perfectly flavorful. I got the Garden Party humble pie and it was tasty! Lots of fresh veggies! I also got a side Ceaser salad and it was excellent! We split the churros per the request of our waitress and she didn't lead us astray! Soooo yummy - the perfect end to our girls night out! read more

Food: literally the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The bread is house made and SO SO good. I've diner here three times, each time the food is phenomenal. Service: great! Ambiance: fine, it's a little loud and they keep the doors open all year so it's cold in the winter Downside: no hot beverages at all. Would love a hot tea or coffee w/ my breakfast, in general but especially on the colder months since the doors remain open. Am I allowed to bring my own? That would help! I feel weird doing a BYOB coffee/tea lol This specific rating (3 stars) is based on my most recent visit. read more

My girlfriends and I chose to go here for brunch as they had really reasonable prices on their online menu and a nice ambience. When we walked in we were sat on the patio, which was perfect because it was a beautiful day. We proceeded to order coffee as we were there for breakfast, but they do not have coffee. How do you serve breakfast without coffee? When we looked at our menus the prices were all increased from what was previously shown on their website. Hmmmm.... The waitress then proceeded to take our drink order (Bloody Mary, mimosas and red sangria). The bloody mary is supposed to come with a pepperoni skewer but it never did. The mimosa special is just champagne and if you want juice that's extra. The red sangria however was fantastic. We proceeded to order our entrées, I was surprised they came to the table within a reasonable time as we had to wait awhile to get more cocktails. The food was very good however...even the neighboring customers were eyeing. So all and all, I liked the ambience and I enjoyed the food. However....Who doesn't include juice with champagne? Who doesn't have coffee when serving breakfast? @humblebistro update your menu online...that's false advertising. I would probably give this place another shot but definitely wouldn't go back for brunch. They should consider partnering with the coffee shop down the street. read more

I have been to Humble Bistro many times but was disappointed with my visit this week. Although the food was good, the rest of our experience was poor. Firstly, the music was so loud that normal conversation was impossible. Secondly, the misters were not on at the outdoor patio and the flies were very annoying. Thirdly, the outdoor patio is in need of a scrubbing as there was bird droppings all over the ledges and on the floor.Not very appetizing. read more

Our server and the food made the evening wonderful. Our server was Paige. She had great recommendations for the wine. She was fun and could tell when to check on us and be present when we needed something. Our food choices were delicious. The only thing I'd change is I would turn down the music inside a bit. Almost uncomfortable when you are trying to have a conversation at dinner. Thumbs up for the great meal, great wine, and our server, Paige. read more

This was my first time in this area and i loved it , the interior was complimented multiple times by my group! Started with the smorgasboard and the Caesar. The only things i would change would be the hummus, its gives off guacamole which doesn't really match the rest of the flavors. I also loveeee a Caesar and this was a fun spin on it the brussels were addicting. We all agreed it could use more crumb like croutons so that the flavor and crunch isn't lost. I got the bolognese, amazing! My friend got the Mushroom pasta also so good but very rich. We also got a pizza and the cajun Alfredo. I wouldn't get these two again. The alfredo just lacked a cheese flavor but the pesto was a good addition to the dish. The pizza just wasn't stiff enough for my taste. Ended with the cheesecake one of the best i've ever had!! Will definitely be back for the brussels, bolognese, and the mushroom pasta!!! read more

I've been here a lot for brunch and I love the selection of food available. While I tend to lean towards the breakfast sandwich with the French style scrambled eggs, there is enough selection to mix it up. The brunch cocktails are mostly wine based such as sangria and the strange Bloody Mary made with red wine. Because it's brunch, the menu also includes their happy hour dishes and cocktails. read more

The vibe inside is amazing. Loud, family, fun, but not overwhelming. Our server was good but you can tell he was green. No issues at all because his team chipped in to help him with things. The bar manager was on top of things and checked in with us when she saw we needed it. My meal was amazing btw. Not sure how to describe it but it was really good (hat off to the chef). Ate my whole plate and I didn't feel like to overate and needed to take a nap. Parking close by and free. read more

We wanted to get a quick lunch from office and this place is located just around. We went on a Monday and this place was packed. I must give a 5/5 for the vibe, ambiance and the service. This place is super cool for a date, brunch, friends meet up or just casually to hang out. Totally, digging this place. We went straight to entree and their menu is mainly pies, bread, salads and pasta. I wish they had a lunch menu, yes they have a lot on the drinks menu but didn't get a chance to try. I went with Cremini rachetti it's a veggie pasta with mushrooms. The presentation was excellent but the portion is limited. The flavor, taste is really good, loved the fresh take. The price is a little on the higher side. Overall a good place to hang out! read more

Really good pies coming out of this joint! One of the best sauces i have had on a pizza. So much flavor but just a bit salty. Crust could have had a bit more char to it but otherwise flavorful and a really nice chew to it. I could taste the sourdough and it was perfect. Not overwhelming. More of an afterthought. The basil placement was awkward. I had to move the basil onto the slice so it wasn't sitting on my crust. Really nice and comfortable atmosphere and everyone was very friendly. Nice wine snd alcohol selection. Can't wait to go try some other things. Highly recommended!!! read more
