I'm a broke grad student or else this would get 5 stars…read more Pros: A dark, intimate ambiance with accents of color in geometrically-pleasing ways. Music was upbeat, house-ish type vibe, perfect volume for date convos but not really for group outings IMO. Staff and community seems friendly and healthy, and there were even little easter eggs on the menu to discover! And the menu? It was literally like a magazine, very entertaining while also informative. Cons: They charged New York prices for their cocktails. And honestly, it was a pretty new york experience in some ways, but if you're living on a budget this is not the place for you. Not a great place to go to meet new people IMO. Bar was a little cramped for me, but that's not hard to do, long legs and such. SUMMARY: This would be my spot if I achieve all my dreams and make a bajillion dollars. Amazing vibes, great service and staff, creative interior design. *Aesthetic*, but exclusive.

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.

I have been eating at the Hassayampa Dining Center for quite some time now and I will let you know…read morefirst and foremost, that it is horrible. Let's get this straight. It does the job but is unhealthy and unappetizing. Most of the food, is either dry or undercooked. None of the food here is organic as well. This means that the food here is probably carcinogenic. (Food) There is a barbecue section, a main food section, a deli, a Kosher session, and a Deli. There is always a form of meat at the main food section, and it is usually undercooked or overcooked and very dry. I have eaten boiled chicken here that was so raw, it was bloody. I usually get the grilled chicken breast, because it is the healthiest option. The grilled chicken is extremely dry, so water is needed to properly consume it without choking. (Location) This Dining Hall is located in the Hassayampa Academic Village at Arizona State University (where the business students live). It is a convenient location for me because I live right next to it. (Service) Alright, let's talk about staff. The staff and faculty are very poor and unenthusiastic about their job. They are slow, inefficient, and some of them complain about their job. I will say that the interior design of this place is pretty nice. It is industrial but in a good way. The atmosphere is pretty hectic because it is full of college students but thats fine by me. Overall, this dining center is pretty shitty but it does the job of getting food in you (as long as you don't get food poisoning from undercooked meat)

Let's start with the food: 5/5. I got the breakfast bowl and it was hands down the best breakfast…read morebowl I've ever had. It had duck bacon (was curious about this bc I'm not a fan of duck), turkey sausage, black beans, quinoa, egg, spinach and more. Somehow that entire medley was perfection when it comes to flavor. Usually bowls can be dry with no sauce, but it was not lacking at all. Staff and service: 5/5 we brought our dog Tom who's a pretty big golden doodle and sometimes can get overly excited when he gets brought outside. But their staff was nice enough to give us a dog bowl with water for him and served his egg on a little to go box plate. It's a little stressful with Tom at times and they made it so much easier. Inside/outside set-up: 5/5. They have a gorgeous inside dining with bar situation. Interior design was super cute for a date and I loved the hanging lamps. Outside had a dog friendly patio and they had cute canopy booths. Overall, we went here on a whim and it's my new favorite spot.

We were welcomed with a friendly smile. We explained that the other half of our party was on their way & the host promptly prepared our table... mostly. There were small plates set for each of us, but only one roll-up/napkin (for 4) & no drink menu. Minor details, but it kinda set the tone for the service experience. Now listen... the spot itself is cute. Once we actually got service, our waiter was cool. It just took forevvverrrrr & I ended up having to request cutlery after food was served. To be fair, it was busy, but there also seemed to be plenty of wait staff, so I'm not exactly sure where the disconnect was. Food-wise: the spinach artichoke dip was definitely the table favorite. My caprese panini was ok, it was sadly lacking pesto which feels a little criminal for a caprese situation. Our friends loved the fancy French toast & I was absolutely there for the prickly pear mimosas The entire brunch honestly felt like it was one dropped plate away from becoming a sitcom episode. One poor new waiter dropped a plate on the floor, then later knocked glasses off the rack above the bar & shattered a couple right next to guests sitting there. I genuinely felt bad for him because you could tell he was having a rough shift. That said, I really appreciated that they acknowledged the long wait & gave us a discount without us having to ask. That kind of accountability goes a long way. Overall, I'd still go back & give them another try because the atmosphere was fun, the vibe was there, and I can see the potential. Every restaurant has an off day -- especially during a busy brunch rush.

I'm a regular, paying customer who has spent significant time here across multiple visits…read more On a recent visit, I was asked to give up my table due to a reservation conflict after being seated for hours and actively ordering. The issue wasn't the food or atmosphere, but how the situation was handled once a conflict arose. As a visibly queer patron with mobility considerations, this raised concerns about how long-stay customers are treated, particularly when accessibility and inclusion are part of the venue's public messaging. This was a situation that could have been resolved with clearer communication and basic service recovery (including acknowledgment or compensation for the disruption). Instead, it left me feeling dismissed. I've documented the full experience, including accessibility observations, for anyone who wants additional context.

The pizza was thinner but large, and the crust was extremely crunchy and tasty. Definitely recommend the ranch. Garlic knots were not super garlicky, but very cheesy, and the marinara on the side compliments it well. The Buffalo Chicken Fries were ok, nothing special, nothing wrong with them at all though. The flavors on the pizzas were very different but sooooo good. The White pizza was a classic white sauce with spinach type slice, but the sidewalk surfer was weird. Weird in a good way though, almost like eating a sub sandwich in pizza slice form. I didn't like the initial bite because it was so different, but immediately fell in love with it. Cannolis aren't my thing, but they seemed to taste good. Can't review that as much. Check this place out though, you won't regret it. They have new rotating specialty slices too so I look forward to trying something new. I'm sure the night life here will be great as well, but we'll see

I really wanted to love this place, but overall the experience just ended up being pretty…read moredisappointing for me. One thing I did enjoy was that you can fully customize your pizza with your own combination of toppings, which is always a plus because I like being able to build exactly what I'm craving. Unfortunately though, the actual taste just wasn't really there for me. It wasn't bad, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype I was expecting. I ordered a pizza with basil and tomatoes, and while they gave a good amount of tomatoes, I felt like they barely put any basil on it at all. It was more like a few tiny slivers sprinkled across the top instead of enough to actually taste throughout the pizza, which was disappointing because basil was one of the main flavors I was looking forward to. The sides also unfortunately missed the mark for me. The garlic rolls weren't great, and the buffalo fries were pretty underwhelming too. Nothing really stood out flavor-wise. The service also definitely could've been much better. We waited around 20-30 minutes before anyone even came over to take our order, which felt excessive, especially since we were already seated and waiting for awhile. We were also forced to sit outside, and leaves kept falling into our food the entire time, which honestly made it hard to fully enjoy the meal. One thing that also confused me was the whole ID situation. They checked our IDs at the door, then checked them again before seating us, and then AGAIN after we were already seated. Meanwhile, there were also kids being allowed inside, so the repeated ID checks just felt really unnecessary and confusing. I was also bummed because apparently they have pinball machines, but I had absolutely no idea until I later read other reviews. Nobody mentioned them, I didn't see signs for them, and I never got the chance to check them out, which honestly probably would've been one of the coolest parts of the experience for me. Overall, I liked the idea of the place more than the actual experience itself. There's definitely potential there, but between the mediocre service and the food not really delivering flavor-wise, I personally wouldn't rush back.

If you blink, you might drive right past this little bar and grill, as it's set back offv the road…read moresnuggled up next to a bigger building. There is plenty of bar space if you're popping in for a drink.. of course, the actual bar that runs along the shelves of liquor, and there is also a bar on the other side of a roll-up door, perfect for people who come with dogs. There's also a bar space that runs along the window that separates the small dining room and the patio. There are a few tables inside as well as some bigger tables on the patio. The patio is nice with lots of shrubs right outside the rail. The murals on the wall are pretty darn cool - - they're like enlarged historic photos of the area. I love them! And I'm not sure who's giant face is hanging on the ceiling but it's short a spark conversation. The menu here has a little something for everyone. 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?
