I went for the music and it was my first visit. Prices were more than reasonable and the food was good. The service and the engagement from the staff was amazing. They believe in what they're doing.

glass of wine

Walked in and was immediately greeted. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and helped with my wine selection and gave me a couple of samples before I decided on the Loscano Malbec. My hubby had a beer and we shared an order of truffle garlic fries. These were AMAZING and the wine was so good that we bought 2 bottles to take home. This is a hidden gem, with friendly staff, great wine, great ambiance and a nice variety of food on the menu. We will be back soon to try out other items on the menu.

Happy Hour 3-5pm

Nice place to meet for happy hour! I came here to meet a colleague friend for HH yesterday and we ended up staying close to their closing time. I arrived early and the staff here were really nice and initially I wanted to sit outside but staff said there was no shade at 4pm. So, I opted to wait at the bar for my friend. HH is from 3-5pm and they have plenty of sparkling, white, red or beers to choose from. My friend arrived around 4:30pm and she had a prosecco. I stuck to a Hefeweisen beer. We chatted for a bit and then ordered up some food for HH and we opted for the baked goat cheese and truffle fries. Both dishes were delicious! The only complaint is that we needed a few more slices of bread for the ample amount of baked goat cheese served. Staff were friendly and helpful and this feels like a nice, quaint neighborhood wine spot. The place is classy and music playing overhead worked for me as songs they played are also in my own play list. Bartender let us know that W-F there is also live music. I like this place and will come back, especially for live music and to sit outside.

Found my neighborhood bar, great location, easy to find, small and quaint with good vibes. Live music on Saturday was very nice. Food was good , had green chile pork and truffle fries ; so yummy. Drink was Japanese mule, refreshing and perfect!

Cold Beet Salad

The food and service at this local restaurant are top notch! I haven't ever ordered anything that I didn't think was elevated above average. The ambiance is modern, clean and when weather permitting they have a great patio. It's small but not too small and they even have a big room for larger parties that is perfect. We had 3 dishes, shrimp capeletti, burrata & the cold beets. Everything was delicious. The shrimp were atop a perfectly prepared pasta with tons of flavor from lemon & capers. Bravo My Wine Cellar! I'll be back.

Menu

Goat cheese was delicious and the weather was perfect for sitting outside. Service was fast and excellent!

I'm obsessed with their tapas plates, and they have such a big menu! The Citrus Smoked Olives is warm, smokey, and the oil was sooo good with bread! The Tempura Cauliflower has a hint of spice in the tangy sauce! It's so delicious, and I'm obsessed with it! Pair it with Francois bubbly rose for the perfect girls night! Please go out and support this women owned, locally owned, small business! This place is so cute and their food is delicious!!

Always check in before ordering. Never know what kind of discount you may get. This place has a very comfortable environment. Dim in some areas. Bar seating, main seating and outdoor seating available. You can make reservations and they have seating for large groups. Happy Hour is Tuesday -Friday 3-5. Food and drink options on the list. But...the food. So the chicken is done perfectly. Just way too salty. But the Mac and cheese/roast beef-ugh. Not for me. The cheese was really a white grainy thick cream and the meat had lots of fat in it. I know a lot of people like that. I am not one of them. Oh. And I asked about that wine special that is supposedly 50% off, the waiter said you can't believe everything you see on line. Also, the lavender waffles that drew me in, are no more. And they were "out of" two of the items on the menu that we tried to order. I really had high hopes for this to be a favorite spot.

At that time, maybe things are better now, the wait was super long and there was no where really to wait... We just sat on a bench by the ice cream shop...

The ambiance is higher class, with what I'd say a smaller seating area, which felt more intimate. Our conversations were not interrupted by anyone sitting near by.

Cooper's Hawk produces an impressive variety of its own wines, and being able to sample different selections while waiting for your table is a really enjoyable touch. The lobby also has a retail area with beautiful glassware, wine accessories, and unique home décor and knickknacks that are fun to browse. We enjoyed a flight of four red wines before dinner, along with the crab, shrimp, and lobster bisque and their signature pretzel bread. For our entrées, we ordered the surf and turf featuring pistachio-crusted grouper and a bourbon lacquered pork chop, along with the shrimp and scallop risotto. The dishes were beautifully presented, with a nice variety of ingredients and flavors. What I particularly appreciate about Cooper's Hawk is that the experience extends beyond just sitting down for dinner. Between the extensive wine selection, lobby tastings, shopping area, and polished dining atmosphere, they've created a place where the entire evening feels like an experience. Our server was very nice and explained the menu to us. Definitely worth visiting, especially if you enjoy exploring different wines and appreciate a restaurant with a little something extra to offer.

I originally left Postino disappointed, but I'm happy to say this story has a much better ending!…read more After reading my review, Assistant General Manager Moira reached out, and she could not have handled the situation better. She was communicative, offered a discount, and made sure we had a reservation at a more private table. She even checked in on us throughout the meal to make sure everything was going well. And what a difference it made! This was my daughters' first time dining at Postino, and they enjoyed every bite. The bruschetta was back to what I remembered, with bread that had the perfect balance of crunchiness and softness. Every dish we tried was seasoned perfectly, and the entire experience was fantastic. I really appreciate when a restaurant takes feedback seriously and makes a genuine effort to turn a disappointing experience around. Moira went above and beyond, and her hospitality made a lasting impression on our family. We live right in the neighborhood, so it's great to have another reason to come back. A huge thank you to Moira for making our visit so enjoyable! Updating my review because great service deserves recognition, too. We'll definitely be back!

What sets this one apart for me is the regulars and the staff - especially Tyler and Abby. They're absolute gems, and a credit to the Postino brand. [Seriously, Tyler is a Tasmanian devil of skill and efficiency. Abby is a delight. And many others whose names I don't know/remember yet are also rock stars] Happy was the day I discovered that their happy hour beer pitcher (equivalent of roughly two and a half pint pours) is priced the same as their $6 glasses of wine - which are superb. Solid variety of both draft beer and wine. The bruschetta boards make a great snack, but don't sleep on the seasonal burrata, or the soups. A TOAST-ino to Postino!

The trout was probably one of the best fish dishes I've ever had. The miso paired so well with the dynamic sauce and the fish along with the sticky coconut rice and greens.

I usually don't dine at restaurants first thing when they open or right before closing, but we made it before 1:30pm and it was great. There were a handful of people dining in so I was relieved that we weren't the only ones there at that time. Allison was our server and she was really great! Very friendly and excellent customer service. The bartender was awesome as well. He had greeted us upon entering and brought waters to the table. They were only offering brunch which worked out because the jerk chicken sandwich I wanted to try was on that menu. OMG this sandwich was delicious although I couldn't taste any jerk seasoning on the chicken maybe due to the amount of mango slaw. I ordered the truffle fries which were excellent. The food was served hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. Next visit will be for happy hour food and drinks :)

I was disappointed. Talked this place up to a new employee I'm training and we decided to get a drink. I suggested Good Time Charlie's because I've had great times here but tonight I did not experience that. The service was fabulous. The 2 ladies behind the bar were wonderful. My problem was the band. The band was SO LOUD. They only played one kind of music and I understand some. SOME being the key word,(like 6 people) people there enjoying it but even the girls behind the bar were sick of it... we asked. Having a band that only plays one kind of music on a Saturday night is crazy We asked if they'd take a request and they rudely denied us. Refused. Don't get me wrong I love the culture in Arizona, especially the Mexican culture, but on a Saturday night after work I don't want to be inundated with only heavy trumpets. The bar was pretty empty. Most people were sitting outside. We decided to leave because it became overwhelming. Love this place, but I'd suggest the owners change up the entertainment on the weekends.
