    Hubs and I heard about Sophie's and had to give it a try. Everything sounded delicious. We ordered their famous French toast and their egg sandwich with a side of eggs. This was absolutely delicious! French toast was on the sweeter side but tasty. The egg sandwich was filling but a bit messy to eat. The tater tots and the spicy mayo sauce were the winner for me. This place gets packed! We arrived on a Saturday morning for breakfast around 8ish and we were lucky to find parking right away. There is seating inside and outside. Order your food and then find a table. Food will be delivered to you. Service was friendly and quick. We will definitely come back!

    A very stylish place to have a nice brunch! Did the coffee and food blow me away? No not really. Service was nice enough but not outstanding. The way this place looks is what it has going for it! Worth a try 1 time but I'm not dying to return and certainly not waiting in long lines for.

    This was a pleasant surprise! Originally had plans for another spot but that place was closed so a quick search and this place was an option. Met with a friend here and we were greeted as we entered. Super cute layout, all open to the outside, which may get a bit harsh with the warmer temps but it was comfortable in the morning. Limited parking next to them, but was able to grab a spot. Walked over to the line where they had menus to look over. Everything sounded great! Opted for the breakfast burrito with an iced vanilla latte. They also had pastries so we obviously had to try two! The cashier was very nice and helped us decide between 2 pastries. Got our number and found a table in some shade. Drinks came first and my vanilla latte was great! The berry danish was fresh, sweet, and refreshing! My breakfast burrito came an it was amazing. Full of eggs, chorizo, and cheese, albeit not overflowing. It was served with these super delicious and crispy tater tots that I wish I had ordered an extra side to go! There was a side of this salsa that I personally was not a fan of, but they did have a station with other hot sauces & cups of water you can grab! Great experience, attentive staff, will definitely be back, even if it's just to order something to go!

    Came on a Thursday at 11 and line was still long but not bad . Always expect a line . One thing I do love is how the servers give you a table and the table aren't first come first serve because people could easily have their party grab a table while they wait in line so them giving you a table is supper nice . Of course the vibe is very nice in there, calm and great music . With it being so busy the servers also don't rush you the service was polite and smooth . Food is good , averagely priced so can't complain . French toast was yummy and I ate the breakfast burrito and the potatoes with the sauce .... Fireeeee . Everyone enjoyed their food and experience so how could I not give 5 stars . Miss Sophia will be seeing me again

    This place is POPPIN. We came at 9:30am On Sunday and there was a big line- thankfully it went fast but my friend who showed up at 9:45 had to wait 20-30 minutes longer than we did to place her order. So COME early especially on a weekend. The ambiance is incredible!! We LOVED the open views it was so unique. The staff was super friendly- shoutout to MAY! She ensured we got seated right away and then grabbed us a table. I got the breakfast burrito which was just OK- but I did enjoy the tator tots on the side and my Cinnabon roll was super yummy! If I'm in the area again I'd love to try something else! A very cute brunch spot

    Met up with friends here on Sunday and we we enjoyed our visit. The line was long when we arrived but it moved pretty quickly. The restaurant is beautiful and has a nice open concept. The decor and colors all go well and gives it a clean welcoming vibe. I ordered the BLT sandwich with an iced black tea chai + vanilla. The rest of our orders included an American breakfast, an egg sandwich, and the honey dill chicken sandwich. For pastries we shared one French toast, one cinnamon roll, and one Guava pastry. The pastries were all delicious. The French toast and cinnamon roll were my favorite. The French toast was served warm, it was fluffy, and had the right amount of butter on top. I really enjoyed my BLT sandwich as the bacon was delicious. The waffle fries it came with were flavorful and crispy. Service was great, everyone was friendly. Dont panic for a table, the employees will seat you after you have ordered! Overall, totally recommend.

    Came here with moderate expectations and left feeling pretty neutral overall. The atmosphere at Sophia's is nice and has a welcoming vibe, which I appreciated. The service was good, employees were friendly, though a bit inconsistent with timing of the food. The food was okay. Some were enjoyable and well presented, but others felt a little underwhelming when it came to flavor and execution. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out either. It's a decent spot nearby phoenix airport if you are looking for something casual. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come back. Overall, a fair 3 out of 5 stars experience. The parking situation gets a little crazy and shortly after we arrived there was a line formed out the doors

    Honey Dill Chicken Sando
    Tammy M.

    This a cool and unique brunch spot inside a really cool building. I ordered the Honey Dill Chicken Sando and I feel like it needed some flavor. The waffle fries were really good though. We all shared a French toast and it was delicious. The service was good!

    I've been so excited to finally come here since it's opened, and it totally didn't disappoint! As soon as I ran out the corner and drove up into the parking lot, I noticed there was a huge line which I was not surprised since it's only been a few months since opening. I did have to park pretty far down the lot, but there were definitely still plenty of spots left in the area. I waited in line about 45 minutes and this was around 10 AM. This was all good, because my eyes certainly had a feast upon the brilliant retro-modern decor and airy ambiance. Right before we reached the counter, an employee seated us to order through her. I'm assuming they split everyone near the counter whether it's a to go or a sitdown order? Nonetheless, we were glad that it was seating by a waitress since we were worried that finding a spot was going to be a challenge. I got the Matcha martini and the waffle, which was corn based I believe. Absolutely scrumptious!! The Matcha martini had a very deep Matcha flavor and it wasn't overly sweet, which was exactly how I liked it! 10/10!! The waffle was equally just as good as it was corn flavor, so it had a slightly savory profile to balance its sweet toppings. I couldn't get enough!! I'm excited to come back to try the rest of its menu. They partner with local foods like Provision and Noble Bread! Classic Arizona faves. The coffee on the menu was also very reasonably priced!

    Its a Brunch,  Breakfast Fried rice, egg on the side and Breakfast Sandwich with tater tots and hot chocolate.
    Sheri S.

    This spot came highly recommended and sadly the food was not it. We live in an age where beautiful Instagrammable spots get a lot of attention because of the esthetics seem to outweigh the main character which, in my opinion, is the food. Don't get me wrong, this spot is too cute. Nostalgic of California vibes, the place was clean, the staff were very attentive and professional. Plus, the bathrooms were clean also. So I will give credit where credit is due. However, the Breakfast fried rice was very much lacking. I heard and thought it would be all the rage but the rice did not seem to be fully cooked and tried to add hot sauce, spicy mayo, anything to help the flavor but it did not help. We also tried the Breakfast sandwich with the side of tater tots and spicy mayo. The tots won the show and thats saying a lot considering they were overdone. But that spicy mayo was the great assist. Maybe it was the day, a Saturday or the time we went, the afternoon, maybe it was the triple digits that had something to do with the Breakfast fried rice not hitting the spot. But definitely give Sophia's a 10/10 for their presentation abilities and customer service.

    A nice breakfast out! Cute business with thoughtful touches of decor and color inside and out. Very busy on Sunday morning with limited parking available. The wait in line was about 25 mins, but it wasn't too bad. The staff are very kind and attentive, running food to tables, checking on guests, and someone helping find an open table which was really helpful since it was so busy. We ordered the fried rice and breakfast burrito to eat and an iced dirty chai and latte to drink. Our drinks were delicious. The burrito was very basic so I would like to try something else next time, but it came with a side of tots so that was a nice perk. A nice place to grab some food. I wasn't wowed by anything here, but I am glad I came to check it out.

    If anyone was looking for unlimited refills on their coffee with brunch, this is your spot! I WAS SO DEAD WHEN I GOT THIS WAFFLE AND IT HAD GOLD FLAKES ON IT! Couldn't feel more like a princess at brunch. My friend with some gold stuck on their tooth when they tried it and be warned. You will look like a gangster after you eat this!‍ You order at the front and sit at a table so be sure to add enough time to your morning for a line!! Poppin off! Doubles tables are also sat sort of close, but we met SUCH GOOD FRIENDS AND SAW SUCH GOOD PREVIEWS OF OUR SECOND CHOICES THIS WAY! Not even being sly about it

    Breakfast sandwich & French toast
    Stephanie M.

    If you're a carb lover, this new Phoenix brunch spot is about to become your favorite. From pastries to French toast to breakfast sandwiches, they truly don't miss. The vibe is modern, colorful, artistic, and super bright. Perfect for a laid-back weekend brunch. It's outdoor seating only, and you order at the front before the staff seats you (sometimes at community tables, so you might end up brunching next to strangers). Service was friendly and welcoming, and the food was spectacular. Honestly, not a single bad dish. The French toast was decadent, buttery, soft in the middle with perfectly crisp edges. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and beautifully plated (a little on the heavy side, but worth it). And the tater tots? Perfectly fried with a super yummy dipping sauce. Pro tip: get there early. By 10am on weekends the line wraps around the building. My only tiny critique (because I'm picky): the coffee syrups are Torani, which is a bit of a bummer. But aside from that, this spot is superb!

    The glass wall slides open and then the easy breezy mood is set!!!

    See all

    Hello! How is the parking here? Easy to find? Is there a free parking lot? Paid side streets? TIA :)

    I have only been there once. It's free parking but the parking was limited. We were able to find a spot right away. It was easy to find. I didn't notice meters on the side streets.

The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.

Perfect when I'm half awake on the weekend. The weekends can get pretty busy but there is a good amount of parking available.

One thing to know is there is no table service. You order at the counter and they have a lot of choices so if you have never been there it's hard to decide while other people are waiting behind you. I came with my mom and we were craving pancakes so again didn't get any eggs which is what they are known for and their breakfast pizzas. So I'll come back to try those. We split buttermilk pancakes and a cinnamon roll. They do have real maple syrup but of course they up charge for the good stuff. The pancakes are ok but don't taste like buttermilk pancakes. They looked good but it definitely tasted like a mix and not a good one. They were way overly sweet. They weren't terrible but just not great. 4/10 on the pancake scale. The cinnamon roll also tasted like a store bought premade roll. It was also kind of burnt and didn't taste like anything. The only good thing was the coffee which I was highly skeptical about because it was serve yourself from a carafe. But it was good and strong. Nice views of the mountains and the patio is dog friendly. I want to like this place because it's in my neighborhood so next time I'll try the eggs dishes. Also they have several veggie/vegan selections so I'll come back for those too and to bring my dog.

The staff was friendly throughout our stay, and the overall property has a relaxing atmosphere that makes it easy to enjoy the sunshine and scenery. We booked an upgraded suite with a separate bedroom and TV room, which gave us plenty of space to spread out. While the layout was great, the room itself could use some updates. The bathroom fixtures were older--the Kohler toilet didn't flush well and was a bit noisy, and the tub/shower combo had rounded sides that made it tricky to stand comfortably. The shower water also never got fully hot. The room had a slightly musty smell, and the carpets would benefit from a deep cleaning. The balcony screen door didn't close tightly, which let a few flies in, and access to the second floor required two sets of stairs since there's no elevator in that section. Even with those issues, the resort's location, views, and overall vibe made the stay enjoyable. With some room refreshes and a bit more maintenance attention, this could easily be a standout property. The setting alone is worth experiencing.

I found a great AAdvantage Hotel deal at the Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort and booked it. While it was a great success of a visit in terms of AAdvantage miles and loyalty points, my actual experience at the hotel itself was less to be desired due to the customer service and a big snafu on their part. I also have Hilton Gold status, though as I booked the hotel through a third party site (AAdvantage Hotels), I could see the stay and the stay history in my Hilton app, but I did not receive any benefits for staying there, which was fine as I didn't expect any anyone. I arrived in person to check in and already reserved and prepaid for a King 1 Bedroom Standard Suite, which had a nice view and reasonably spacious room (but not too much larger than a regular room at another hotel). The room was certainly not upgraded though there was parking available right in front of the entrance. I did not receive anything else at check-in nor did it appear that I'd get my regularly complimentary water. I did pay the daily resort charge which includes high speed internet access, access to the Falls Water Village, an hour at the tennis/pickleball court, an hour at the afternoon golf practice facility, two hours for a mountain bike rental, 20% off seasonal spa services, and 15% off select golf apparel. While I didn't use it, I had easy view and access to the Falls Water Village where you could lounge and play all day on their sun-marked terrace where you could find free-form pools, hot tubs, and cabanas. They even have a 138-foot enclosed water slide. When I checked out, I was told that a bill would be sent to me shortly since I did it on the app early, and when I received the bill, there was a charge for my room at the restaurant at the top of the hill called A Different Point of View. The catch is that I never went to eat there during my stay (or at any onsite restaurant since I live in the area and had my meals offsite). I reached out to the hotel who insisted that I did go there to eat. I promised them I didn't eat anywhere onsite and that they need to look at the receipt and see if it actually has my room number. They confirmed it did and that this meant I ate there. I told them to find my name on it and let me know if it was on there. After several more back and forth conversations, they confirmed it wasn't me and would remove the charge. They then mistakenly charged me double. Then they removed one charge, but it took more than a week before they removed the other charge. By the end of the exchanges, it felt like they were blaming me for their own mistake. While the resort is aged and rather pleasant, there certainly are training issues regarding the customer service offered at this property. I do not plan on staying here again in the future.
