One of the best Sapphire Lounge experiences I've had! We came in during breakfast, before 11 AM, and were really impressed with the food--it was restaurant quality. The chilaquiles verde and chorizo breakfast tacos were both absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. The service was friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. The wait wasn't bad either--only about 15 minutes. Definitely a great lounge experience and a wonderful way to start the day before a flight!

This lounge is out of my usual way, so I only get over here when I have an extended layover. The staff are friendly, especially the person working the taco Airstream! While I like the general ambiance, the open to the terminal design makes it a little less relaxing than other lounges. You hear the gate announcements pretty regularly, which can be a little stressful. Otherwise, good drinks, tacos, and service.

Probably one of the best Sapphire Lounge I can access with the Ritz card. Definetely on the top. Been to one in Oakland under Priority Pass which was ok. One in Maui which is shared with Hawaiian Airline was very lame. At this location, early hours, they started packing up quickly and probably needs reservation if you are coming later. One of the host showed us to the table which was very nice and very professional. Once seated, we went and got the drinks and food. I noticed few guys came in after us and sat at the bar. Looks like they have been doing this often. Lots of top shelf liquors and fancy drink choices. Our table was cleared quickly. I loved the water option and also ability to make fresh esspresso and Ameriano or just settle with coffee. Will be back to Pheonix just to try this lounge again.

The smallest sapphire lounge we'v ever visited. There is usually a short wait because of the size of it. Lounge itself is stylish and cozy. The food and drink selections are very good and service is great. I think the best way is to reserve seats in advance as sapphire reserve card holders!

5 stars for the employees and service! Valerie was really sweet we enjoyed talking with her, she made our morning real nice! 4.5 for the food. Getting to the seats were tight to walk by when there two people passing each other especially with luggage. I enjoyed the apple berry cobbler! I was surprised there were no mints. I enjoy a good mint after I eat and before getting on the plane after drinking coffee.

I've been wanting to visit this lounge for the longest time, and I finally found the time! What's great about it is that it's made for those reaaaaaal early flights. It opens right at 4:30 AM, and honestly, the food is so much better than Escape. The lounge was super quiet with no wait at all - granted, I got there right when it opened. I immediately grabbed a seat close to the food and drinks because priorities. Lol Don't forget to check out the Airstream too by the seats "outside". They offer a different menu for breakfast and lunch, which is a fun little bonus. I'm not much of a drinker before a flight, so I didn't get to try any of the specialty cocktails. But I thought it was pretty cool that there's a QR code at each table where you can order from the bar, and they'll bring it right to you. I was honestly most impressed by the breakfast selection and how clean everything was. The bathroom was fine not a ton of stalls but for an early morning flight, this lounge is such a great option. The service is top notch -I had Antoine ask if I want anything from the breakfast bar and he can bring it to my table. He was also the kind person who checked me in. I can definitely see how this place gets packed later in the day, but if you have an early flight, it's absolutely worth checking out!

Be sure to make a reservation in the Chase app if you have status! This is very important, as all the negative reviews bellyache about wait times. We tried nearly all of it. In order of preference, a category at a time: Chicken thighs - shrimp & grits - Chkn Adovado taco (airstream both) Of the buffet veggies & sides: Farro salad -Squash, ratatouille - carrots -cold harrisa yogurt -kale/ beans - Chkn Caesar wedge salad -hummus. Desserts at buffet: meh. Except for for the dark chocolate chip cookie, which was excellent; Matcha chocolate bites (brownies) also excellent. Peroni was crispy as can be; bartenders friendly in spite of the nonstop action. "Ready for takeoff" was nice & spicy; "Jet-stream Berry" was solid also. Well-staffed and our plates were cleared away fastidiously. Loved the booth past the fireplace- a calm oasis. Food didn't quite move me, but loved the experience. 3.5, round up for good service.

Excellent experience especially if you make a reservation online ahead of time through the Chase app. I booked for 3 thinking I'd bring some friends on a Saturday at 5pm (my flight was at 7) but they ended up being at a different terminal altogether. I talked to a lovely gentleman who told me to come back at 4pm - I was likely accommodated bc I was a solo party, but I appreciated him nonetheless! Other people tried to walk in and were quoted anywhere from a 30 min to 1 hour wait. They actually seat you at a table or counter, so it's not a free-for-all seating. I was sat near the bar at a long counter facing the wall (not ideal, but fine). I had easy accessibility to power. Food was delicious and the drinks were pretty good. There was a separate area for tacos, nachos and elote; but unfortunately they were out of a few ingredients at the time I visited. I mostly frequented the bar and the buffet area. Overall, definitely worth a stop in if you have access!

Bacon jalapeño corn cup. Get this!

Finally got to visit one of the Chase Sapphire lounges! The lounge is gorgeous! Since you're assigned your seat, a host is there to escort you to your spot. Beautiful, full bar with signature cocktails. I got the Sapphire with vodka and it was so beautifully presented and delicious too. Super cute airstream that offers various Mexican bites (tacos, a bomb jalapeño corn!, guac, etc.). They also have a Mexican breakfast menu. Then there's the main area that had an assortment of salads, light sides and some simple sweets. A lot of healthier options which tasted good. Fantastic hospitality, lots of staff here. Reservations available online too, which I could see would be helpful even when it's not during peak times.

Chase Lounge in the Phoenix Airport - January 2026

I'm honestly not sure why so many reviewers have had negative experiences here, because my visit to the Chase Sapphire Lounge at PHX was a very, very pleasant surprise. I wasn't even planning on stopping by, but during a layover in Phoenix, my cat and I decided to check it out and I'm so glad we did. We were able to enter the lounge with zero wait. The only hiccup at the start was the "bouncer" at the entrance who wouldn't let us sit at a table and directed us to the bar instead. It wasn't really what I wanted at first, but it ended up working out perfectly. The bartender was fantastic and whipped up the best "sweet mocktail" I've had in a a long time! It was actually so good that I enjoyed two while I was there :) The food options were quite tasty and not just "airport good." I especially loved the Airstream located in the terminal seating area of the lounge which served up Mexican favorites like tacos, guacamole, and street corn. Fun concept (I love Airstreams!) and great flavors. The atmosphere overall was sleek and swanky. One employee even went above and beyond trying to help me track down an iPhone charger which I really appreciated. Small gestures like that go a long way. The only minor downside was that the bathroom could've used a little TLC, but it wasn't enough to take away from the experience. Between the food, drinks, service, and vibes, this lounge was an unexpected treat and a great reminder of one of the many perks of having a Chase Sapphire Reserve card. And yes... my cat enjoyed himself too - meow!

That braised slow cooked beef, pretty pretty pretty good

The negative reviews baffles me. I got on the wait-list and in 15 min I was in and having my free drinks and meals happily. The aesthetics is very nice and calming. The being seated by the host worked out as we were able to get an actual table. They have Bero for the non alcohol drinkers but still enjoy the taste of beer. The cocktail list is plenty and the presentation is on par to a swanky hotel lounge bar. The food options are great, a little bit of this and that, vegetarians won't be too disappointed. Don't get discouraged about getting on the wait-list, it's a process but I think it's how they organize the flow of traffic. Much better experience than most lounges.

Inside the reserved area

The lounge at Sky Harbor is where Southwest operates, at gate D11 on the upper levels. You need the Chase Sapphire card for access, but they may have a paid one-time access: check online for rules. We went to have a calmer and quieter wait for our flight: the ambiance is quite nice, very busy at the front desk, with a dining area to the left, a pleasant bar looking outside, as well as a smaller area to the right with a few tables for sitting and make use of the buffet style offerings. Unfortunately for me everything had the dreaded Chili spicing everything; so I had the nice pearl barley with cheese, herbs and a dressing, some lemon rice that had no lemon (?) so that was sadly bland and dry. For me this food offering was disappointing... however, with my deadly allergy, I had little choice or way to change this. Perhaps the menu could include a few offers of allergy-safe foods besides catering only to peanut - a well known one- allergic people. Several wait staff were in the lounge, but none too prone to asking customers for orders: I thought drinks would be served by table service, while the food was buffet style in the area we were seated. But..the QR code at our table either didn't work or the network was slow so we couldn't order drinks; either way ordering wasn't a very smooth experience. Overall a good way to pass time before your flight. In April we had booked the lounge again, sadly the reservation made for 0600hrs was listed as evening i.e 1800hrs and others were let in while we were waiting outside to fix this issue;. We ended up leaving because it was getting to be a long wait and we were leaving from a gate far away. I truly hope the 24 hour clock gets used more - it's standard in Europe and many other countries (not just military, as some think of it) exactly to avoid these problems. The restrooms are clean, unisex, and handicap friendly; the lounge will hold your wheelchair while you're inside or call for the red-bench 'shuttle'. The airport assistance staff are great, and the service is always appreciated. My only "issue" is with that red-bench PAX shuttle used inside the terminal: the seating is extremely rigid and upright, and the ride was rough enough that I briefly wondered whether complimentary astronaut training had been added to the airport experience..... Speed is good but not becoming airborne and wondering if all my vertebrae are still there Enjoy the lounge, but don't miss your flight!

I'm sure this might be a hot take for some, but my experience at the Sapphire Lounge was way better than AMEX. AMEX is good, but Sapphire blew it outta the park during my first visit. 10/10 and would come back if I had more visits available via the Priority Pass. Shout out to Tayah and Landon. Great drinks and service. There was a waitlist when I arrived but I only waited 30 min, so not terrible. Once checked in, they assign your seat and I sat at the bar. The food was delicious. Compliments to the chef. Thanks Chase!

Insanely uncomfortable like it is designed to move you along. Food is mediocre and it feels tight and too hot

Chase lounge is a farce. We first had to get on a wait list, then wait an hour just to get in. Would not recommend.

I came here last night for a girls night out and specifically chose this place for the decor…read moreinside. It's really pretty! Our server was attentive and helped recommend dishes. We chose to share all the dishes. We got the whipped feta dip, cauliflower al forno, truffle fries, pesto pasta and pound o' mussels. Every dish was flavorful and delicious. My personal faves were the feta dip & mussels! For my drink, I got the bloody prick. It was great - not too sweet and a bit of sour. All in all, we all had a fantastic time! Parking was a bit of a challenge if you want close parking but otherwise, it's a huge lot and you can definitely find a spot if you don't mind walking a bit!

I had the Smash Mocktail and it was SO good! Refreshing, flavorful, and perfectly made. The service was amazing from start to finish.

Overall, The Farish House has great vibes, delicious drinks, quick service, and such a unique atmosphere. We really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back.

It's hard to put into words how great this place is. Have you ever been somewhere when everything…read morejust feels "right, balanced, happy"? That is Farish House. The cozy, intimate comfort of what used to be Coup des Tartes blended seamlessly with the deep, peaceful, gentle "love" you felt from House of Tricks into one calm, warm, easy spot. Farish House is a real, soul-warming experience across the board. The service, care, comfort, ambience, food, value and clear love they put into everything make Farish House our new favorite place. We walked through the front gate, up onto the front porch and inside where we took one of three small tables in the cozy front salon of this soul-warming 1899 French Bistro. *Food: we started with a bottle of Australian Cab. Shockingly good. And not crazy expensive, especially on Thursday when bottles are 30% off, it was an amazing deal. Turns out, the owner, Greg, was in the wine distribution business for several decades, curating wine programs for top Valley restaurants, so he really knows his stuff and their vast wine selection is amazing. We were offered a basket of truffle popcorn, mmm, salty, crunchy, and rich. We ordered the Chef's Selection Charcuterie and Warm Noble Baguette & Marinated Olives to get started. Both were beautifully curated, balanced, and incredibly high quality. The flavors and textures blended perfectly. with cheeses broken from large wheels, rather than cut and sliced, house-made pickled grapes, unique and unusual ingredients, smokey meats, compound butters, just awesome! We then moved into one of the cozy dining rooms and ordered the slow roasted Peposo Short Ribs and fingerling potatoes pan fried in duck fat served with Moroccan spiced aioli. Both were rich, warm and delicious. For dessert, and yes we thought we'd explode from all this food, we ordered a massive slice of bread pudding, some of the best I've ever had, rich, gooey and incredible. Along with that we ordered a beautiful Espresso Martini and an off-menu banana cream martini. Their drinks are not "poured" or mixed here, they're balanced and expertly crafted. This is French Bistro comfort food at its finest and it's unmistakeable. *Service: it just doesn't get better. Everyone working there is "family". And that's how they make you feel; like family, cared for, wanted, welcomed. Service isn't a choreographed masterpiece, no tuxedos, cloths draped over arms, napkins frantically re-folded when you step away, dishes served and cleared in unison. No, it's relaxed, warm, friendly, kind, like being at your grandmothers house and knowing you're surrounded by people who care. Met Greg and Katherine, the owners, and their daughter Alexandra and several other "family" members taking care of us. Their appreciation for your presence is unmistakable. *Ambience: it's just plain comfy, cozy, easy, relaxed, warm, deep, gentle, worn (in a good way), wise, and calm, that's the best I can describe it. Hard wood floors, cozy rooms, soft, warm lighting. It's a non-pretentious, French bistro that feels like the home of a favorite grandma or great aunt living in a warm family cottage in the outskirts of Paris. *Value: it's perfect. It's not ridiculously expensive like Kai, Brinkley's, Cafe Monarch, Christopher's, or French Laundry where you go, "okay, that was fun but we'll only do this very occasionally/rarely and it's probably worth it, but dang that was pricey!" No, Farish House is 100% value to experience, not cheap, but not overpriced, the balance is just right. It's a place you can go often, and we will. Yes, our meal with apps, drinks and dessert, some on happy hour and the Thursday wine special, was around $200. I'd happily say this experience was worth every penny. *Overall: I can't recommend Farish House highly enough. Parking is on the street or in a nearby lot, and that's a downtown thing. There's a small lot in back. The food, ambience, service, quality, and experience were stellar. I wish I could rate them 6 stars instead of just 5. I'll return often and highly recommend Farish House to everyone. I genuinely hope you enjoy as much as we did!

A fancy restaurant with an even better view…read more We were able to snag a last minute reservation but for a late night dinner, there was plenty of seating. You can choose to sit inside or outside, but with the heat we decided on inside. We were able to have a great view of the city skyline. It felt a little stuffy and the AC/fan was quite weak, so be mindful of clothing. Our waitress was very nice and gave some good recommendations. I especially loved the complimentary corn bread and focaccia. We had the flatbread and chicken and doughnuts as appetizers. They were okay - I didn't think they were anything special and probably wouldn't order them again. I really enjoyed my main dish. From previous reviews, I was nervous to thinking the black truffle risotto and scallops would be small but they were quite large and filled me up alongside all of our appetizers. I would recommend this dish. -1 star because it took forever to receive our food. I would estimate over an hour.

I've been wanting to go to this place since I've moved here 6 years ago!!!…read more I finally went for my 34th birthday!! It was very cute and worth it !
