    For a real quick bite at the airport between fights they were quick and efficient getting us our breakfast sandwich. Little greasy but overall had good flavor, it was hot, and they were quick about it. When running between flight I cannot as for much more. Only hit would be garbage is over flowing other then that thank you.

    Here for a conference and wanted a happy hour dinner! This place was perfect. The decor is very classy and the happy hour menu was delicious. We sat at the high tops by the bar and were served immediately. Bread and pesto were brought to our tables and we enjoyed every morsel. Happy ran until 6 which was perfect for our conference schedule. Highly recommend!

    Came around 5pm on a Saturday with two others. Sat fast and service was good. Ordered the skinny spicy margarita which was delicious. Great balance of heat, not too much to blow your taste buds. It lingers in your mouth nicely. The focaccia bread with the pesto was delicious. Mussels were bountiful with a red broth with depth. Loved the onions and sausage with the mussels. Bread must be soaked in the sauce. So delicious. The prosciutto di Parma, best part is the torn bread with whipped ricotta. Good quality prosccuito as well. Wasn't a game changer though. It was good. The lasagna bolognese was a hit. Thanks to the hostess for recommending it. They have a good quality ricotta, so creamy. Just added salt, pepper and more Parmesan cheese. My friend had the short rib and called out that it was a pretty fatty piece. But that the mashed potato's were good. The heirloom tomato and corn flatbread was a hit as well. All dishes were delicious but nothing out of this world. Seems like a good staple for good food.

    The food and atmosphere were incredible! Sam took great care of us. The bacon wrapped dates were a great surprise.

    They have a good selection of pizzas and panninis and they don't skimp on the portion sizes! Sorry, no photo. I ate it too fast!

    Located in A Terminal A at Phoenix Sky Harbor, best food prices I have ever found in an international airport! I appreciate that!

    We stopped by its store in Sky Harbor terminal for a brunch. They no longer serve the Mediterranean salad, so we got the Gorgonzola pine nuts chicken salad with Gorgonzola vinegrette dressing. ($14.99) It was full of flavor (Gorgonzola and pine nuts) and I would get it again. I got the 20oz cappuccino and it was a good one. Service was fast and friendly Ambience was good. There is a small seating area in front of the rod the store but at 10:30am on a Saturday it was full.

    What a way for Fox Restaurant Concepts to destroy an otherwise great brand. At 7:00 am in terminal 4, this shop is understaffed, with poorly trained people. There is a line out into the airport terminal and another line with nowhere to stand near the register, of people who have paid for food that isn't ready. Barely an apology after food that was ordered and paid for is out of stock. Hire a manager!

    Great dining when visiting Sky Harbor for a quick breakfast! Loved the ability to get a great cappuccino and a bite to eat before my flight. The staff was friendly and the coffee shop vibes were cozy before wheels up on my trip to my happy place - Disneyland! I'll definitely return if in this side of the terminal again.

    Stopped by Olive & Ivy for a quick dinner on my way back home from MX. I enjoyed the hot turkey panini although I would have liked the turkey more distributed and a greater portion of lettuce and tomato. The bread was very fresh and toasted perfectly, still soft yet crunchy! I also ordered the pine nut salad which was good although I would have much preferred the chicken be heated before put on the salad and delivered to my table. I found it to be rather dry and cold which detracted from my joy :-) their staff were helpful, though not quite as warm and friendly a professional.

    Super quick layover and needed something fast. Ordered the brioche breakfast sandwich would come with egg cheese, bacon and avocado. Also ordered a large chai latte. I have to say it's the best breakfast I've ever had in an airport. Chai was yummy as well. People are super friendly and more importantly very very fast.

The food, the service, the atttentive-ness (shoutout to Shelby! She was so sweet and loved the whole dining experience with her) the ambiance is ALWAYS good. This time of year is especially my favorite with the doors open, the light breeze, the dimly lit interior, greenery, landscaping, it's just a vibe and I honestly don't ever want to go anywhere else. The seafood tower is our favorite! Every single thing is SO fresh, the best we've ever had, buttery, fresh, and delicious. They also don't skimp on portion size. Their drinks are super yummy, I love the Diego Riveria drink! So good. Great wine selection. The shrimp risotto was super yummy the pan seared salmon! Also, we've had their sushi and oysters rockerfeller and they are both outstanding. Thanks for sharing your amazing restaurant and staff with us! Cheers. We will be back again soon.

    Recently visited Buck & Rider and we had such a great time! While I'm not much of a seafood eater…read moremyself, the rest of my party are seafood lovers and they really enjoyed their dishes. We started with the smoked trout dip, which came with crisp, refreshing slices of watermelon radish and saltine crackers for dipping. The tuna crispy rice was also a big hit among the group and disappeared quickly! My partner absolutely loved the crab cakes and said they had a fantastic sear while being absolutely jam-packed with crab. I especially appreciated that they weren't overwhelmed with breading, which can sometimes be the case with crab cakes. Since seafood isn't really my thing, I went with the Caesar salad and was very happy with my choice! It came with a generous amount of Parmesan cheese sprinkled throughout, and I added crispy chicken, which made it a much heartier meal. The portion was also surprisingly substantial for a salad! And of course, we had to finish with their notable lemon meringue pie. We split one slice four ways, and even with that, there was enough for everyone to get a good taste. It was incredibly smooth, creamy, and decadent with that perfect lemony flavor. Overall, Buck & Rider seemed like a lovely place with a great atmosphere and plenty of options for both seafood lovers and those of us who aren't as into seafood. Definitely a fun spot to gather with a group!

    What an amazing evening, beautifully curated with so many thoughtful details. Only downside is that…read morefor some reason Apple maps was not accurate to finding the location and parking was a challenge as it is right on Roosevelt Row. However as soon as I found it and immediately after entering Pretty Penny I was transformed to the cutest little restaurant. I was greeted immediately and had made a reservation so even though my friend hadn't arrived yet, they sat me down. They instantly offered water and menus (food and cocktail). I noticed that the menu seemed very small and the dishes were shareable -- I don't eat meat so I was hoping my friend wouldn't mind sticking with fish and seafood (which she didn't). As soon as I got to my table there was the cutest sign that said welcome to Sarah Sherman and guest -- it was such an adorable and personal touch, I loved that! As soon as my friend got there we immediately both ordered the cold brew old fashioned -- we thought about the espresso martini but this just sounded too good to pass up -- and we were not disappointed! This drink was so tasty and strong. We immediately ordered the bread (sourdough boule) to soak up some of the alcohol as well as some oysters and the salsa. The oysters were so well spiced and were absolutely delicious. But the bread, the bread, the bread -- the server mentioned that it took almost 9 months to develop the bread recipe and it served. It was the best bread and butter that I think I have ever had! The salsa was good but probably was my least favorite of everything and it was still super yummy. We then moved on to the octopus tostadas. Sometimes octopus is not my fav -- it can be too chewy but this was so amazing and incredibly flavorful. It was starting to be my favorite dish until we ordered the Hamachi -- OMG!! Talk about a mouth orgasm-- both my friend and I were yummming it up -- but seriously this bite was so complex with different flavors coming up with every chew -- it has coriander candied peanuts, fermented pineapple, avocado, pickled fresno, toasted coconut and aji amarillo yogurt -- The server mentioned that this was the chef's least favorite dish which I totally do not understand because this was off the charts in my book. We also tried the earl gray whiskey sour, which was light and delicious, and ended with the shrimp toast and the espresso martini. By the way the toast on the shrimp toast was like a little fried dough triangle -- sooooo gooood! The martini was good but the cold brew old fashioned really stole the spotlight for me. Other details I loved that just elevated the experience: Purse hook (very important to me), the little trays for your utensils, metal coasters, incredibly attentive servers, fantastic music, great ambiance and the cutest was the penny they put on top of your check. So cute -- was not expecting such an enjoyable all around experience!! Will be back 1000%!!!

    I need to take a moment and brag about Knock Kneed's food, specifically the zucchini! I don't think…read moreanyone else in the valley has zucchini quite as food as them. Let me explain, they are thinly cut at a bias and have the most amazing breading making them so nice and crispy! If you don't know about them, you need to! Ok, now the rest of the food...the fish is delicious moist with great breading, the shrimp is usually good but I felt like it was slightly over-breaded today but still good enough. Onion rings, delicious super crispy and they have a different type breading, that is seasoned so well. The service is great and well I don't know what more I could ask for after a long day of working.

    First, if you're looking for lobster, there isn't any here. It's a fish 'n chips place (with other…read moregood stuff), but no lobster despite the name. Second, it's excellent. Arizona has a problem with fish 'n chips. Namely that all they have here are the square, frozen fish patties. All the places Arizonans rave about (like Pete's and Mandy's, etc.) are just frozen fish patties. That's not fish 'n chips. That's a TV dinner. Thankfully, Knock Kneed Lobster is a throwback to an actual fish 'n chips joint. No frozen patties anywhere in sight. The place was built in the 40s and it's in a crappy neighborhood near Sky Harbor airport and diagonal from a strip joint. But don't let that stop you. There is so much to try here and none of it disappoints. The fish is Alaskan cod and it's as good as anything in the west coast. California has some stellar fish n chips, and the fish here is just as good. The cod is flaky and mild and fresh. The batter is cornmeal based, but it's light and not doughy or raw inside. They fry it to a perfect golden brown. The menu has dozens of variations of it (1 piece, 2 piece, 3 piece with 2 shrimp, etc.). The basic fish n chips comes with some old fashioned French fries (the perfect skinny ones like they should be). And one of the best parts is the "salsa bar" where you get your own tartar sauce, ketchup, cocktail sauce, ranch, fresh cut lemons, as much as you want. Mix and match; whatever. In another area you can dispense malt vinegar and Louisiana hot sauce to your heart's content. And in another area is an enormous fountain drink machine with everything you can imagine. But beyond the fish 'n chips is a lot more. The fried shrimp is awesome. They have clams and oysters and catfish too. And don't miss the fried zucchini. It's one of the best I've ever had, and their ranch is excellent. The fried mushrooms are to die for, so it's tough to pick! This place is the real deal. It's definitely a throwback to another era, and I imagine these places won't survive for much longer. Family-owned restaurants are being attacked through regulation, economic pressure, city ordinances, and enormous pressure from corporate-owned eateries. Come here while you still can and taste what really good fish 'n chips should be- even in the middle of the desert.
