    I love Postinos, and it seems like they are popping up all over the PHX valley! This location is a bit smaller, and the parking lot is small, so if you come at prime time you may have some trouble parking. There were some spots available around 445pm on a weekday. Indoor/outdoor seating is available as well as some bar area seating. They have happy hour drink specials until 5pm on weekdays. The ambiance is intimate and dark, I also love the back wall mural of tin lunch boxes. You can also purchase wine bottles here and they offer a wine club deal too! The service was good, I believe it's a team effort so multiple people helped us out. I decided to order the select two and choose the half salad/ panini deal with the WEST COASTER on focaccia bread and GREEN GARDEN CHICKEN CHOP. Both items were delicious! I would definitely order them both again.

    Postinos will always have my heart. Went on a Saturday evening and right away found street parking. This never happens so it already started off a good night. We snagged seats at the bar which was nice , no waiting. We had a great bartender who had our drinks out and we ordered some food. I had the bruschetta board which was delicious. The SMOKED SALMON IS FIRE. You have to try it when you come. It's the absolute favorite and I always have to get it. The cider was really good also. No complaints just full stomachs and smiles .

    If Postino has no fans, I'm dead. I love Postino. I think that the bruschetta boards are just perfect there and I love that. They still have reasonably priced wine and beer if you go before 5 o'clock, it is only six dollars. They also have delicious fresh salads, and some really tasty sandwiches. Service is always friendly in there, and I love sitting at the bar, especially

    Same quality boards

    They catered for my workplace and it did Not disappoint. They can't control the ambiance obviously for food they cater, but they certainly controlled the quality. The service was prompt; some caterers are late. They were not!

    Always a vibe. We came for their bottle and board night Our waiter Alan was very attentive and checked in regularly, music fits well with the ambience, love the dim lighting. Definitely a must.

    We went here for the first time and it was well worth it! We sat in the patio and just loved the ambiance! The service was spectacular and the food was amazing! I would recommend the bruschetta, to die for! We can't wait to go back!

    I have always loved Postino (all locations) my instinct of sticking to the delicious bruschetta boards......well I should have followed that instinct ! Ambiance is always comforting chic, service is very good and our server was very knowledgeable. I decided on the Tuscan tuna panini that I guess I expected to be warm as it had cheese on it but it wasn't (no big deal) I just always associate panini's to be hot or at the very least warm since they are by nature pressed. The tuna had enormous chunks in it but had a tang that I don't care for at all. It may have been the Dijon and mayo mix but I doubt it I like both of those. Another friend had the chicken and mozzarella panini and she said it was just "okay" my partner had the prosciutto and Brie panini and he liked it (I order it without the fig jam) but he likes figs. Homemade chips were thick and tasty! Iced tea had great flavor!

    I recently visited this location with two friends and one of their small children. It was a Friday around noon and the place was packed! Our wait was not bad and our table was ready quicker than projected. Pros- the food was good and served hot, the selection of bruschetta was great for my meat eating friend and the vegetarian, drinks came out quickly, there was a chair for the little guy, servers were knowledgeable, and super kind! Cons- the Bloody Mary had a sweet flavor so I would skip this in the future, parking was a mess Overall- I'd return! The pros definitely outweighed the cons and I love the atmosphere and food and drink options!

    I met my friend here for our girls dinner. I've not been here so was excited to try it. The atmosphere was chill and had a good vibe. They had a nice cocktail menu with some craft beers. I ordered a bowl for dinner and my friend had the chicken and mozzarella Panini. Both were, good. For some reason, I was hoping that they had pizza but everything else tasted great. This would be a first type of restaurant.

    Postino's is known for their bruschetta boards and while you can't go wrong with them, I decided to try something different tonight! I got the pream bowl with steak and it was a bit cold but otherwise good. Since I got there right before 5pm, I had a glass of Tempranillo wine for $6 during their happy hour. Our waiter was very personable. The interior is cute and cozy. Parking definitely fills up around here but there is a small lot I sometimes can snag a space in.

    been a postino gal for ages & i really do love this location (outside of the parking...) the patio is so lovely and the happy hour truly can't be beat! $6 glass of wine or pitcher of beer until 6 p.m. it was also on this visit that i learned the bottles are also $24!!! amazing. i got the gluten free board & a bottle because - when in rome! service was a bit odd & rude at times but we stand true to loving the brand & that this was just an off time.

    Sweet Potato Wedges

    We had another excellent experience at Postino Central! It's definitely my favorite of the locations I've been to: it's spacious, open, and the staff are so friendly. We came in on a Saturday early evening and were seated immediately. We ordered two mocktails: the mockingbird and the glow up. We both preferred the glow up: it was the perfect refreshing summer drink we were looking for! The mockingbird was good as well, but to us was more of a fall vibe! We ordered some sweet potato wedges to start. They took about 15 min to come out (which is not bad at all, we were not concerned whatsoever), but the staff was super apologetic that they came out after our bruschetta board. Everything we had tasted so fresh! We'll definitely be back at this location, even though there are multiple locations closer to our home.

    Bruschetta board cleaned out! So delicious!

    Decided to hit up postino with a couple of friends for a late lunch! We requested a booth and got a nice private booth towards the back but the lighting was non existent there so it felt a little bit like a dungeon and it was so warm! I think a bit more lighting in that back area would have given this the 5 stars. However, the staff was amazing, it was about time to switch out staff is what we were told and they didn't skip a beat. My friends got a panini each and I did the bruschetta board and it did not disappoint. They also have $6 beer pitches and $6 glasses of wine which was amazing! Definitely a spot to go to for a nice light lunch and some drinks! We will probably make this our new spot since joyride removed all their tacos from their happy hour! Postino is now our new happy hour spot! Great service and absolutely delicious food!

    A wonderful evening at Postino's on Central

    WHats the vibe for dress code? Would a dress for her and a button up shirt be over dress? First date so we're gonna dress to inpress

    You can go either way here...the scene is upscale casual, and you're comfortable with sandals and shorts as well as slacks and a button up shirt. Can't go wrong so long as it's clean and relaxed!

    Are you taking reservations?

    They do take reservations but not on Monday and Tuesdays nights. This is because they have their board and bottle deal starting at 8:00

    Do you allow dogs on your patio?

    I've seen dogs here once so I assume yes!

    Are they accepting reservations in light of COVID19 and wanting limited occupancy?

GOOD! inspired by taco bell's baja blast hahahah). they TREATED us to all three of their current desserts on the menu. it was the most pleasant surprise i could've imagined. my favorite was the flourless chocolate cake! it was like a thick, rich brownie, had passion fruit cream to "lighten it up" and a caramel-like taffy on the bottom my brother and sister-in-law both said their favorite was the gulab jamun (which is basically like little fried dough balls/donuts, influenced by indian flavors and spices). the mille-feuille was also fantastic - the pastry was light and airy, cream wasn't too sweet and also very light, shaved cheese on top made it have a savory bite, and the jam alongside it was strawberry rhubarb. service is always amazing, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable; it seems like everybody working here truly enjoys it. quite literally already have a reservation booked at valentine and will be coming back here beforehand. update: came back for more drinks (fernet & coke, spaghett western, negroni) and their lamb flauta. all AMAZING! and amazing order to whet the appetite before dinner at valentine.

Regardless, we gave it another shot and we were much happier the next go around. Record players in the corner and a fireplace on the opposite side of this dimly lit bar created a cozy vibe on a chilly Saturday night. We arrived right at opening and the bar filled up quickly but the volume still made it easy to have a conversation and still have an intimate night out. The drinks, this time, well balanced and delicious. My wife had the the Pantera Rosa and I had the Last Word. Both were delicious and not overly sweet. I love a good "Last Word" but the tea added a welcome and subtle layer. A nicely created cocktail without shaming the original. Servers were attentive, constantly filling up water, and making sure we were well taken care of. We will be back!

Honestly, everything stood on its own without needing wine. The carrot dip, paired with a great selection of vegetables, was a refreshing way to start. As someone who loves sweet potatoes, the sweet potato with green harissa is a must-order. We'd never had chips with serrano ham before, but they were surprisingly addictive and disappeared fast. The highlights of the meal were the duck breast and the pissaladière (puff pastry with anchovies). The duck was tender and flavorful, and the pissaladière was a standout. Who knew anchovies on pastry could be that good? We ended with the ricotta cake with poached pears, which was light and not overly sweet. It reminded me more of European or Asian cheesecake than the dense, sugary American style. The ambiance is chic and thoughtful, with great use of color. Loved the details, from the tiles to the furniture to the typography. Service was excellent, and it felt like the founding team was actively running the place. The menu changes seasonally, which gives us a good reason to come back!
