3/2/26 Back for allot more Liberty…read more It's Pasty Cline night and we always enjoy dining out before our shows. Parking 5/5 Always a challenge but coming early and doing the circle dance landed us a nice space across from the Liberty Market. Atmosphere 5/5 Such a cool restaurant with allot of history dating back to 1935/1958/2008/2022 which reflects the years of the establishments service and architecture evolutions. Always a great vibe here! Service 10/5 Our experience tonight began with the beautiful and friendly hostess Bailey. She greeted us with a warm smile and asked us what our seating presence was. We grabbed a booth overlooking Page street and the foot traffic outside. Our server tonight was Treven who joined us table side. He had our drink and starters in quickly. My wife ordered the Lucky Penny Latte and I had iced tea. Starter was their out of this world Burrata. The photos fall short of its glory. Entrees was their memorable minestrone soup, and I ordered their sesame ginger noodle salad featuring sweet potato glass noodles which are delicious and a host of smartly paired vegetables, chicken and a pleasant ginger sriracha delivering some spice and heat without overpowering the dish itself. For desert we fell way off the wagon with their in-house carrot cake. A slice easily feeds four and we enjoyed ours with espressos. Dinner was excellent from the service to the scratch kitchen food, and expressos, Magnifico! $125.00 with tip and leftovers too. Date night my friends-SYOY!

We started with large French fries served with two smallish containers ketchup and chipotle sauce. Fries good but could have a bit hotter and served with insufficient amount of sauces. 3. Hubs had Caesar salad. I'm not kidding when I tell you that half of the bowl was croutons. 2. I had the minestrone soup with sausage, no pasta. This was absolute delicious and filling. I'd come back just for a bowl @ $17. 5. Hubs and I shared the wood fired pepperoni pizza. This may have been one of the worst pizzas I've had in recent years. Floppy, scant cheese and sauce. Shriveled basil and tiny pepperonis. Even worse, the bottom was black. Just awful. 1. Our waitress and other servers were all friendly. Nice vibe, clean and gender inclusive restrooms clean and tidy. We might come back for dinner one day and try other dishes. (I'd still get the soup). Super convenient given the Hale theater's close proximity. Well def come back for coffee and dessert! ~EG Eats

Had the Buffalo Chicken Dip (yummy!)as an entree subbed with veggies. Entrees- Mushroom Swiss Burger, Cowboy Burger, BBQ Burger which were all good. Prices are a just a tad high for burgers.

I also loved that it's pet friendly, which makes it even more fun for casual hangouts. The food was good, pretty standard bar food, nothing over the top but still enjoyable. The drinks were okay, not anything that really stood out, but they got the job done. Service was solid though, our group was taken care of the whole time. Overall, this is a great place for larger groups, birthdays, or just a fun night out with friends. I wouldn't come here for something more intimate like an anniversary, but for a lively, social vibe it's a good choice.

I'm a real fan of Postino's and have visited both the Kierland and East locations. When we're in…read moreGilbert, we usually dine in either the cozy dining room or on their fabulous patio, but tonight we decided to do carry out instead. We ordered two bruschetta boards with Mexican Street Corn, Salmon Pesto, Prosciutto Mascarpone, Brie Apple Fig, Burrata Bacon Arugula, and Mozzarella Tomato Basil, along with a Caprese Panini on ciabatta with chips. Everything was really good. The bruschetta boards are always fun because it's impossible to pick a favorite -- every one tastes better than the last. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors worked really well together, and the portions were great for sharing. The Caprese Panini was flavorful and paired perfectly with the chips. Postino's continues to be one of our go-to spots for an easy, casual meal whether dining in or taking it to go.

I don't know who invented avocado toast, I just know I love it. A nice smear of avocado on some fluffy bread? Yes, please. I also had a nice, cold draft beer, but when my friend's spicy Bloody Mary arrived to the table, I was SUPER jealous! I was mad at myself for having chosen the wrong brunch beverage. We sat outdoors, which was a little warm but not a deal breaker. It's a cute spot to dine al fresco. We're just having a warm March. I'll be going back for that Bloody Mary!

"Move over, coffee. Today is a job for champagne."…read more Oh yeah, we brunchin'! A bunch of us from my spin class decided to get together on a Sunday for brunch and here's what I munched: Grande Chicken TInga Nachos ($18 - Shredded chicken tinga, queso, roasted tomato salsa, black beans, pico de gallo, roasted jalapeño, cilantro lime crema): Okay, maybe I don't recommend the nachos. While topped with a good amount of cheese on top, once congealed, any chip on the bottom that you pull out is just going to be a naked chip. They do top these chips off with a generous amount of toppings. Brunch Burger ($19 - Angus beef patty, sunny side egg, avocado, applewood smoked bacon, cheddar, sriracha aioli, hash brown patty, brioche bun, choice of fresh fruit or breakfast potatoes): I shared this burger and requested the kitchen to cut it for me which they did. Very thankful that they were okay with the request. The burger itself was decent. It was a little weird to eat as the tiny hash brown patty made the structural integrity funny but it's not a deal breaker. I will say that it needed more sauce or something. The burger was dry after a few bites. I also had my lunch with the most savory and spicy Bloody Mary. It was amazing and probably one of my favorite Bloody Marys in a long while. You're in DT Gilbert where the energy is going to be fun. You really can't go wrong having bunch here.

They don't seat you until you order and one of us was running late, which "gave" us time to peruse through the menu. Luckily though when she did arrive it was before a mini rush, so no time needed to wait for a table. The employees were super nice - taking us thru the menu and how they operate. Counter order and table service. Had it not been a warm day, we would've sat outside (they have both inside and outside seating). It appears they have daily specials, but I went with a hearty stack of pancakes and some eggs on the side. As good as their prices are on drinks.. I just needed a hit of caffeine to get me thru that day. It be like that sometimes! We didn't have to wait long for breakfast and the girls kept the coffee flowing from cup to my veins. Some of the best brunch I've ever had, bar none. AND not horribly expensive- we love a place that serves tasty meal for $10-15 AND $5 mimosas. And they have TWO locations in town to boot!

I ordered the breakfast nachos with beans and subbed the shredded pork for bacon. It was a lot of food. It was delicious though very much a chilaquile type dish. The chips are house made and very crunchy. I tried the cookie butter French toast which was made into a platter. This includes eggs, bacon, and potatoes. The French toast does have that fried flavor to it which isn't my favorite but it was good. Definitely a different type than typical smashed looking French toast dishes at breakfast spots. These were stacked and fluffy. The service was quick and once you order you choose where to sit which is nice. There's indoor and outdoor seating with bathrooms available as well. Overall can't wait to go again!

Seasoned perfectly, nice crispy bits on the top and soft creamy interior. We had the southwest croissant same and the monte cristo. The chorizo was rich and flavorful with out being overly fatty. That bread in Monte cristo was fluffy and decadent, but be warned it is heavy! Even the server that cashed us out and bussed our table was amazing! 10/10 experience !

Another staff member brought our drinks after we ordered and our server eventually made it around to us after saying he had a bunch of tables - I get it, it was Easter! I had the prep sausage breakfast Sammie which was amazing. The potatoes that came with it were so deliciously crispy. I also ordered a blueberry lemon mimosa which was incredible. It was so light and refreshing. One of our friends had to ask another server to bring his hot coffee around after he was the only one to not get it. It was my boyfriend's birthday so they also offered him a free pastry. I tried the chocolate chip cookie he picked out which was so good. I told the server I wanted to pay for my boyfriend and he acted like he charged me, however, as he made his way around the table he ended up charging my bf for his meal! I was a little confused with our server but other than that I absolutely loved this place. I think it was just the rush of the holiday and all. Next time I'd love to sit outside and enjoy downtown Gilbert and all its cuteness.

We came in with our family and three kids and sat on the patio since we were a larger group. After eating, our kids were sitting in chairs near our table, chatting and moving around a bit. They weren't being loud or disruptive, but a nearby a couple clearly seemed upset. The woman was shaking her head and saying to the waitress "this isn't okay to be doing while people are eating", pointing toward our kids. Once I realized this, I immediately called my kids back over and had them sit with us, and I even let her know that if something was bothering her, she could've told us and I would have addressed it right away. The couple chose to ignore us and left shortly after. The manager then came out and reassured us that Lucky Lou's is a family-friendly restaurant and that our kids were absolutely fine. That meant a lot to us and really showed how supportive and understanding the staff is. I also hope one day that couple realizes how hard it is to keep a 4-, 6-, and 8-year-old sitting at a table for more than 30 minutes without shoving an iPad in front of them. On top of that, the service was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I honestly had the best burger and tater tots of my life. We'll definitely be back--thank you for creating such a kid-friendly and enjoyable place for families!

Buck & Rider had been on my list for a while, and after finally visiting for the first time, I can…read moreconfidently say this is one of Gilbert's more polished upscale dining experiences -- with some serious highs, a few notable misses, and one category they absolutely crushed. First impressions matter, and Buck & Rider delivers there. The ambiance is gorgeous -- both inside and out on the patio. Think modern, elegant, upscale coastal vibe with a stunning bar, clean design, lively but not chaotic energy, and the kind of atmosphere that works equally well for a date night, celebratory dinner, or an elevated family night out. Easy 4.5-5/5 for ambiance alone. We had reservations, were greeted promptly by the hostess team, and seated within about 10 minutes, which is reasonable for a busy upscale restaurant. Since this was our first visit, I really appreciated our server taking the time to walk us through the menu, explain how everything worked, and help us navigate the options without making us feel rushed. That level of attentiveness immediately elevated the experience. And honestly? Service was the MVP here. Every course came out efficiently, timing was excellent, and we never had that awkward "did our server disappear into witness protection?" moment. Professional, polished, warm, and highly efficient. Easy 5/5 stars for service. We decided to try the Restaurant Week menu, which gave us a nice sampling of the experience. Appetizers: This is where things got a little shaky. I ordered the Caesar salad, and I hate to be dramatic... but this may have been one of the most disappointing Caesar salads I've had at a restaurant in this price range. 0/5. Yes, zero. Completely forgettable and surprisingly underwhelming. My mom tried the Voodoo Rice, which had a lot of hype in other reviews, so expectations were definitely elevated. Unfortunately, it landed squarely in "just okay" territory. 3/5. Not bad, but surprisingly bland and not nearly as exciting as the name suggests. Sides: Unfortunately, the side dishes didn't do much to improve things. The chilled beets & green beans were a 1/5 for me -- visually fine, but flavor-wise very underwhelming and not something I'd ever order again. The charred asparagus was slightly better, but still pretty forgettable at 2/5. For a restaurant executing at this price point, I expected much more from the supporting cast. Main Course: Now THIS is where Buck & Rider completely redeemed itself. We both ordered the Filet Mignon, cooked medium, and wow -- these were outstanding. Perfect temperature, incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. I'm assuming they use some kind of seasoning blend or rub because these filets honestly had more flavor than many steakhouses I've visited, which is saying something. Easy 5/5 stars. Hands-down the highlight of the entire meal. Dessert: We both finished with the house-made pistachio ice cream paired with a house-made cookie, and this was a strong ending. The pistachio flavor was rich without being overpowering, and the warm/fresh cookie complemented it perfectly. Simple, well-executed, and satisfying. 4/5 stars. Overall: Buck & Rider earns a solid 4.0/5 stars from me. The ambiance is beautiful. The service is elite-level. The filet mignon absolutely delivers. But several weaker dishes (especially the Caesar and sides) kept this from entering true 5-star territory -- because when paying premium prices, consistency across every course matters. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I order the filet again? Without hesitation. Would I let the Caesar anywhere near my table? Only if it came with an apology.
