Even though my time here was brief, I had a nice time here. Service was great and food was delicious. I enjoyed the atmosphere in the dining room. I didn't have time for drinks, but I hear they have a nice selection of drinks in their bar and a great happy hour. The Macintosh is described as a neighborhood restaurant that serves modern American and Southern cuisine. It was once called Grassroots Kitchen & Tap before it got rebranded. They have a diverse menu with a lot of different choices. Shrimp and Grits, Barbecued Beef Ribs, a Chicken Salad and Po Boy Sandwiches are some of the standouts. I settled on the Rotisserie Chicken which came with a side of onion rings. I'm a big pesto fan and loved the buttermilk pesto for dipping. I had a nice time and look forward to a return visit. In addition to happy hour, The Macintosh has brunch on the weekends.

I went into SugarJam The Southern Kitchen with one mission: find elite shrimp and grits. What…read moreactually happened was far more dramatic. I accidentally discovered catfish and grits so good they completely hijacked my original plan and made me forget shrimp even existed. First of all, if you order this dish and DON'T add the house hot sauce, you are actively cheating yourself out of happiness. That sauce takes everything from "this is really good" to "I may need a moment alone with this plate." Perfect amount of heat, flavor, and Southern soul. Now let's discuss the bacon situation. The bartender, Bridgette, casually talked me into adding a side of bacon like it was no big deal. What arrived at the table looked less like breakfast meat and more like something excavated from Jurassic Park. That bacon was MASSIVE. Thick, smoky, crispy perfection. I pride myself on never leaving bacon behind under any circumstance... and yet this thing defeated me. Somewhere out there is a remaining slice that still haunts my conscience. Also, shoutout to Bridgette because she made a watermelon hibiscus drink so ridiculously good that I accidentally ordered a second one like I had nowhere to be and no responsibilities in life. Refreshing, smooth, dangerous in the best way. Beyond the food, the entire atmosphere was just a vibe. Great music, great energy, great service -- the kind of place where you immediately feel like you picked the right restaurant before the food even arrives. SugarJam doesn't just serve Southern food... they serve the kind of meal that makes you start planning your return trip before you've even paid the check. When I come back to Scottsdale, they can absolutely expect to see me again.

Popped in before a Suns game, an easy walk past Chase Field. It was good to get away from the usual pregame options. The place was clean and inviting, and had a little bit of a "back in time" feel without being dated. Quickly and pleasantly welcomed and seated. Then came the hard part, making choices. We had fried chicken and fried catfish, with sides of Mac and Cheese, macaroni salad (yep, Mac two ways), greens and mashed potatoes with gravy. All were great, obviously home made from longstanding recipes. Especially into the greens, which were bursting with flavor. The catfish was delish, and my wife called the fried chicken the best she ever had. Saved room for peach cobbler, which was served smoking hot. The perfect sweet end to the savory meal. Next time I'm all in on pork chops, which looked amazing. And we will come on a Sunday, the only day dressing is available as a side option. If you're looking for a meal that feels like a friend had you over for supper, go here! Thanks Mrs. White's family!

(the only way you're able to place an order) I went to pick it up at the time that was given on the app, my credit card was charged immediately. When I went to pick up my order, they were closed. The Sign with the hours of operation were posted and stated they should have been open. I went back to my car and called the phone number on the app, which was a recording. I left a message with my phone number for them to call me. The next day I received a text that said my money was refunded which it was, everything but the tip I had left. I never received a call from them, no acknowledgment at all as to why they were closed and why they kept the tip. I am in the F&B business and no, they could have refunded the total amount that was charged to my card, but they decided to keep the tip. Pretty disappointing and unethical. Edit: I appreciate the response from Nana's kitchen, but it was not just a "bank processing delay" I left my phone number on the recording and asked for a call back, which I never got, had that happened I would not have had to leave review.

From the first bite, it was clear this wasn't just cooked food, it was made with intention. Hot, fresh, flavorful, and straight from the soul. Let's just say Tabitha Brown wasn't lying--everything is good. No exaggeration. This is comfort food done right. No shortcuts, no bland plates, just real flavor and care in every bite. Very delicious and absolutely worth the hype. Tips: Parking can be limited and the wait can be long, so come prepared. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and definitely use the restroom before you arrive. Trust me--you'll want to focus on the food once you get it.

The cocktail and wine that we took were spot-on, elevating each bite and adding another layer of indulgence. The chef's passion clearly shines through every dish, and the attention to detail, from the local ingredients to the printed menu, made the experience feel extra special.

I read the fried chicken is popular so I ordered the 4 piece version with sides of rice and gravy along with some maque choux and a biscuit for $21. The food arrived about 15 minutes later on a big plate. The chicken pieces had a dark brown crust and were quite good tasting. Not too crusty and with hot and flavorful meat on the bone. The rice and light brown gravy were good and the maque choux looked different from the South Louisiana variety but I still enjoyed it. It had corn, tomatoes, onions and bell peppers in it. I'll bet few locals have ever heard of it! The tablevservice was good too. This was a lot of food and I didn't finish it all but it was all good tasting and very close to real southern style cooking.
