One of my favorite places to have breakfast meetings. Staff is wonderful. The menu was awesome from scratch kitchen. They have from scratch turkey sausage for those of us that don't eat pork, which is very rare very much appreciated.! The coffee is always great. If you haven't been here I highly recommend you check the spot out. Food 5/5 Coffee 5/5 Service 5/5 Staff 5/5 Atmosphere 5/5 Parking 5/5 Location 5/5 Return Factor 525

Met some friends of this restaurant for brunch. First time I've been here since they open. I really liked the inside of this restaurant it was really cool the way they had to decorated. Maybe a little bit on the loud side but not terrible. Service was super friendly and efficient. The menu had a nice selection on it. Definitely would go back but I think I would sit outside next time. I thought the prices were reasonable and the quality the food was very good.

This place has a very unique, marble white look, with all of the delicious looking pastries right by the front to draw you in. The food was good, but the Prep Sausage Sandwich definitely tasted a bit off, although with the high quality ingredients I could tell it was very healthy compared to better tasting breakfast sandwiches. We got a seat at the bar to avoid the long wait time, and the service was incredibly fast, both to take our order and to get the food out quickly.

We were in Gilbert exploring and we came upon this quaint little brunch spot! We like to try different places - so, we gave it a go!! The service was super- friendly and made suggestions. We went with the biscuits and gravy (which we shared)- it wasn't what we were expecting. The biscuits themselves were a bit dry/kinda stale. I was really thrown by the gravy- it was super rich and I didn't really care for the flavor profile. I know the gal said they use some duck fat for the gravy. Perhaps that was it- I checked with my husband for his input...he wasn't a fan either! Oh well, you explore and sometimes it's not great, but perhaps we just chose the wrong thing....

Smoked salmon hash

What a cute place!! We love the original in Tucson, and this location did not disappoint! Such great service- multiple servers and food runners- very fast and very kind! I got the smoked salmon hash and it was so good- creamy sauce, crispy potatoes, sweet and savory veggies, delicious salmon. A perfect bite every time! The pumpkin spice latte was great! Not too sweet except the whip on top- I would take that off next time.

Had a wonderful brunch catch-up with a girlfriend at Prep & Pastry! We were seated right away thanks to putting our names on the waitlist. First time trying this spot and it didn't disappoint - the food was delicious and the staff were super friendly. Loved the raspberry white chocolate coffee and enjoying it on the patio on a beautiful day was the perfect touch. Can't wait to come back and try more menu items!

I love this place!! The poblano Beni was so so good! I love that it was on biscuit. The rose latte is my absolute favorite. The employees are so friendly and attentive and I love the open space. My daughter thought the restroom was "so beautiful" lol

I love Prep and Pastry a brunch! I can't put into words how excited I was to hear that Prep and Pastry was opening a location in downtown Gilbert. I visited within the first couple of months of them opening with a friend and loved it and have been back a handful of times since then! P&P is my go-to for a brunch especially in the downtown Gilbert area. The space is big and well-lit, and they offer plenty of seating indoor, outdoor, and at the bar. I've tried a variety of pastries and a few entrees. My favorite entree is the smoked salmon hash. It comes with smoked salmon, roasted vegetables, potatoes, over easy egg, creamy horseradish, and everything seasoning. So flavorful and filling without making you feel heavy. All of the pastries are divine. My favorite so far is the "prep-tart" which is their take on the poptart. The coffee is solid. The service has been outstanding on every visit. The staff is friendly, attentive, and prompt. I highly recommend utilizing their Yelp Waitlist feature on weekends as they tend to get pretty busy.

Prep and Pastry has quickly become my go-to spot for brunch in Gilbert! Their potatoes alone keep me coming back! Love their coffee specials and pastry selections too. I can never go there without getting a pastry, but I always have a hard time picking one because they all look so good. My favorites have been their dossants (croissant donuts) and pop tarts!

The Monte Cristo sammie might be the BEST in the East Valley! Imagine beautifully sweet brioche with the tastiest ham and cheese! Yummm! Patio is charming and staff is friendly with great recommendations! We will be back. Oh and don't sleep on the pastries!

We got to breakfast pretty early to avoid the downtown Gilbert crowds and were surprised to be one of the only tables. I got the monte cristo sandwich it was great I throughly enjoyed the jam that came with. I was not super impressed with the latte or potatoes they were not crispy and pretty soft. My husband got the chicken & toast and enjoyed it but also wished his chicken was just a bit crispier. Our server was great and very attentive, the decor was super cute and the music/vibes were on point!

Update from previous review** The customer service is great. The only thing i encountered is that once we were done we waited about 15 minutes for the check so we ended up going to the front counter and asking for someone to please check us out. No biggie! Our waitress was great and our food came quickly and it was delicious! The potatoes are so good!! The lattes were very good also. My pistachio latte was decaf with oat. The place is very cute i do intent to return. I am glad i gave it a 2nd try! Our bill came to about $54.00 + the tip. Keep in mind that i order extra turkey and our lattes have several extra options. The price seems fair.

Is there outside seating? And if so, are dogs allowed?

There is definitely outside seating, not sure about dogs.

Are kids allowed at this resturant? If so, is there a kid menu?

I took my 6yo son and he ordered pancakes from their kids menu. Good luck!

Are the dossants fried or baked?

Hi Carlin! Our dossants are fried.

The queso was rich without being too heavy, and the mustard added a nice contrast. For my meal, I had the Caesar salad topped with a bistro steak cooked a perfect medium rare. The romaine was crisp, the garlic-anchovy dressing bold, and the garlic croutons and parmesan tied everything together. The steak was tender, flavorful, and elevated the salad. At the table, we also ordered the cheesesteak with Angus beef, roasted peppers and onions, Havarti cheese, and garlic aioli served on a baguette, with sweet potato fries. The sandwich was hearty and satisfying, and the fries were really good The wagyu burger was another standout--topped bacon, Gruyère and smoky blue cheese, caramelized onions, tomato jam, and garlic aioli on a pub bun. The beef and bacon were fabulous and the fries cooked to perfection Jake, our server, was terrific--attentive, friendly, and helped make the whole experience even better. We finished with the butterscotch bread pudding topped with vanilla gelato and caramel sauce, which was the perfect ending--warm, comforting, and just the right amount of sweetness Overall, a great patio dining experience with flavorful dishes, excellent service, and plenty of variety.

Mason was on point with all aspects of service, he was attentive, welcoming, and really made us feel at home. I was also impressed with the new bartender whose name I didn't catch but it was her first night and I would have never known unless she told me. She was friendly personable and slinging drinks like she'd been there for a while. Great job to both of them! As for the food, it was phenomenal as expected but a special call out needs to be made for the butterscotch bread pudding. It was complementary for my birthday and I probably would have never tried it before but it turned out to be the best bread pudding I've had in ages. So tender and sweet delicious!! 5 stars. Highly recommend!

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!

The menu online looks promising, and it's very close to our home, so we decided to give it a try. This place is very bright and fresh looking, for lack of a better description. There's a bar, and a really great mural. There's an entire wall of banqettes, and some tables in the second room which is divided only by a half wall. There are some walls which I thought had exposed brick, but later noticed were wall boards. Either way, I love the look. We were seated right away and the nicest server came over. He really seems to love the restaurant and love the food, which is always a plus in my book. The boys each got a beer, and I got the Italian margarita. It was a sweet drink that kind of tasted like an Amaretto Sour, which makes sense since there's Amaretto in it. I liked it. They brought gigantic rolls with butter to the table. I really liked it because most places serve sourdough bread, and I don't really like sourdough bread. These large white rolls were yummy. I wasn't very hungry so I just ordered two meatballs, but I asked if I could have the meat sauce instead of the marinara that it usually comes with. Our server said there would be no problem with that, and there wasn't. Hubby got the spaghetti and meatballs, and son got eggplant parmesan. All of it was delicious and I give kudos for a really yummy meat sauce. For me, the meat sauce can make or break an Italian restaurant. They seem to do a pretty brisk take out business, and there were quite a few people by the time we left. I would love to come back and try the pizza, because pizzas that we saw coming out looked fantastic.

Let me start with a little tid bit about Downtown Gilbert. There is nothing really special about it…read moreoutside of the vibe is right. Always a lot of people there so it makes you want to be there. Restaurant wise they have really basic offerings. Places you can find in Mesa, and Tempe, and Scottsdale. Now.... What truly makes Downtown Gilbert special are the small shops that are hidden away from the "main strip". One of those places is Clever Koi. Hidden in the Parking lot space behind Shaq's Chicken spot is a small strip of shops. A book store, smoothie place, and my favorite Clever Koi. Our family has very different tastes when we move from one member to the next. So finding places that we all like gets tricky. Clever Koi makes that easy because we honestly have yet to run into something we don't like. Let's start with our favorite starter. The steamed buns (giggity). The pork belly is hands down phenomenal. An amazing bite that literally makes you want more and more. The lazy fries are just that, again pork belly is included, but that garlic aioli is what drives this dish. The tai salad is obviously classic. The short rib dumplings literally make you close your eyes and just say "Mmmmmm". My middle child is the hardest pallet to please at any restaurant as he only eats certain things, but the Chicken Katsu sandwich here is his second favorite chicken sandwich in all this world. The first time he ate it he spent the whole ride home raving about it. Mind you, we live in San Tan, so not a short ride. The shaking beef is always good. It has this firey kick that brings the heat upfront but does not linger. You cannot forget about the fried rice here. Rice is one of my weaknesses in life second only to pizza. Fried rice ranks right up there with my top favorite ways to eat rice and this ranks right up there with my favorite fried rice places. The main reason we come here is because of the noodles. Ramen, ramen, ramen. When you think of Ramen, I assure you this is what you are thinking of. The broth is oh so savory and reigns in the fresh veggies and proteins to meld them with the noodles for a flavor punch each time you have a mouthful. They have great drinks here as well, or so I've been told by the other adults I come here with. I always just get a sake and Sapporo so... LOL The service is always good here and we somehow always manage to miss the lunch or dinner rush which is awesome. All in all... this is by far my favorite dining spot in downtown Gilbert. Great food, great drinks, great service, great atmosphere, in the middle of a great little square. A must eat for me.

Our server Maya was incredible and extremely knowledgeable on all dishes, drinks, and so many details of the restaurant! I've never had this good of service anywhere! My wife and I had the Pad See Ew with the braised chicken thigh which was INCREDIBLE. Perfectly chewy noodles, great seasoning. I highly recommend adding some of the homemade Fresno chile sriracha for a kick! The pork ramen was also very delicious. Be warned it's a lot of pork! My wife preferred it with the green jalapeño sriracha. The drinks were also very unique and delicious! A sideline view for me and riding the line for my wife. Oh and the best part was the dessert Bananas foster hush puppy puffs. These were so unique, seasoned with cinnamon sugar and Chinese 5 spice. It took some getting used to but the more you ate it with the Carmel toffee sauce the more I enjoyed it. All in all I can see why people love this place! It's a 5 star restaurant for a 3 star price! If you're looking to expand your flavor palette and have a wonderful evening I can't recommend Clever Koi enough!

At first I thought I didn't want a burger as I usually make my own at home but was pleasantly surprised at the menu & ambiance. Sarina was our waitress & I asked her if the California Bowl was like a salad with a veggie burger as it doesn't state a beef patty? She said it's like a burger w/o a bun but as a bowl w/the ingredients & TOPPED with a beef patty. Oh, I see... So I asked if I could just have the Basmati Rice but it was a mixture of Basmati & Quinoa so she said she could give me more ingredients of something else like Brussels sprouts or Greens so I asked for more Greens. The ingredients are: griddled Sweet Potatoes, roasted Mushrooms, caramelized Onions, Brussels Sprouts, Quinoa, Avocado slices with a Tamari glaze. It was also topped with Cilantro & Green Onions. I also ordered an Iced Tea. The California Burger Bowl was soooo delicious with such a flavor bomb of textures, sweetness & caramelized, smokey flavors! The crunchiness from the cold greens, warm Brussels Sprouts, soft & sweet Caramelized Onions & Sweet Potatoes, plus the creaminess of the Avocados was such a great medley! I think I need to replicate this at home! Very creative & healthy! My cousin & friend both got burgers, one topped with mushrooms & one with a lettuce wrap sub, Zucchini & Sweet Potato Fries. The seating is very comfortable with the cushioned seats & booths & the restaurant is very bright & airy with lots of windows & high ceilings. If you have to use the restroom, it's located outside & will give you a passcode. Highly recommend this place!

They were the best we have ever had & we've had a lot. I don't think the cheese is beer cheese, but whatever it was it was so good. Hubby loved his burger & the onion rings were really good. They ate like Red Robin onion rings. They were crispy & cooked perfectly. My burger was good. I got it without the tomato bacon relish. my fries were good & crispy. It's a bit pricey in my opinion for not coming with fries, but still really good. I'm sure we will come back again.

I love a good rooftop and the weather was perfect. While they don't have a parking lot, free parking is available on the street and in the various surface lots and garages in the area. Ambiance (4.5/5): It's tough to beat a rooftop. Here you'll have nice views of downtown Gilbert, including the historic Gilbert water tower (which lights up at night). It's not a huge restaurant/bar, probably 50 seats or so. A good number of tables and then 15 seats or so at the bar. We sat at the bar. There's a pretty nice mural on one end too. Service (4/5): A little slow to start out with and to close out, but overall, friendly. We found one of the last four remaining seats at the bar. If not for that, there would have been a wait. One drink and then we made our way. Overall, about average. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet for this visit but they do have a full menu. Drinks (4/5): Interesting craft cocktail list. The first one on the list is a Sotol cocktail. If you've never had Sotol, it's a Mexican spirit. Not tequila and not mezcal, but somewhat similar to mezcal and it does have a bit of a smoky flavor. The Sotol So Good has sotol, butterfly pea, coconut rum, pineapple, lime, and orgeat. It's purple so it makes an impression. It packs a punch too. If you're looking for a cool spot to grab some food and drinks in the heart of downtown Gilbert, when the weather is nice, Sotol is a great choice!

I've been wanting to check this place out for a while. Right from the start, the elevator was out of order, which wasn't ideal. When we got inside, the place was mostly empty -- only a couple of other guests -- yet we were told to sit anywhere except along a section of tables by the wall. I pointed out a table at the far end, well away from the entrance, but was directed instead to what felt like the least desirable table, with the reasoning being they might need the space for a large party. After a bit of back-and-forth, they eventually let us sit where we preferred, but it made for a poor first impression -- especially considering the restaurant never filled up. Tried a few cocktails -- they were well made and enjoyable, definitely the highlight of the visit. Overall, good drinks but the initial experience left a sour note -- may or may not return. Saluti.
