The bartender's are always on point! Rob is an absolute doll and Kyle is so professional, sweet, consistent and never ceases to amaze us. We had the personality curated NY Sour, the Rosemary, and a classic gin martini. Ah-May-Zin!!! We love this place . It's a spiritual experience, get on over. read more

This place is...interesting. It's way smaller than it appears in photos and somehow them plus everywhere nearby is using the same grandma glassware I saw at World Market. Perhaps they're owned by the same people? Drinks took 15 mins to make, and 2 groups who got there after got theirs before even though they just sat at the bar and I had reservations...okay, if that wasn't annoying enough there was no food. Their advertised menu was very nice and I'm not sure if they're still not serving food due to construction remodeling. Initially the bill came with a 10% discount for the trouble, then another staff member said it was comped. Thank you so much, very good and reasonable. The waiter was super cool and knowledge so I definitely don't blame them, it was an overall sorted experience. Lastly, please beware the "Rose Garden" is not just an aesthetic theme, it's heavily rose scented, like your nana's floral lotion. I guess many people don't notice cause I can't find mention of this but it gave me a major headache. There should definitely be a warning for this especially since many people don't like the whole perfume isle thing and some are just allergic. I wanted to like it a lot but it was just off this time. read more

I was here for a private event so my experience will likely be different from a regular evening. 1. The place is gorgeous. 2. Drinks were good. The bartender who was friendly and attentive was female, black, and had amazing hair. Loved it. 3. Food was just okay. I would eat before coming. read more

The Rose Garden is most definitely aesthetically pleasing. The decor is so pretty. This is good for both date night and girls night out. Chad was friendly when we stepped foot in the RG. My bartender was nice as well. I forgot her name but she had glasses. She made me a drink that was a cross between an Old Fashioned and Espresso Martini which was good! I also had the Espresso Amore which was delicious. My cousin had the Love Island and she enjoyed it as well. We also had the Garden Tea shots. They were great also. The bartenders didn't skimp on the alcohol at all! My type of vibe. If ever back in Phoenix, I'd return! read more

This is a charming and delightful little experience! Let's start with the atmosphere the hanging lights and moody, wallpapers, low lighting and open to the outside, a wonderful bar with delightful drinks. We were greeted immediately and had plenty of happy service. We enjoyed the full menu of attractive cocktails, and when we enjoyed the drink enough to desire the recipe, they happily wrote it down for us and told us how to make the drink. Everyone has a story for us and Kyle was extremely helpful, kind and charming with fun stories. Definitely spend a little time with Kyle. JEE the manager is all smiles and more than willing to make your night engaging, her personality elevates your evening. Definitely give this spot a try! read more

Fun hidden gem in downtown Phoenix. Perfect for grabbing a drink and meeting up with friends before a game or event. Beautiful decor and feels more like a lounge than a bar. Wouldn't recommend it for food if you're looking for more than a few small bites to nibble on. The flatbreads are small, but flavorful. The ricotta blossom is phenomenal. read more

We saw that this bar had some really good reviews as we were bar hoping through downtown so decided to give it a try. We didn't realize this place closed at midnight so when we got there at 11:45 we were wondering why it was so empty. The bartender was nice enough to just give us a heads up that it was last call but happily took our order. Being a big fan of tequila and mezcal we went with the Blush and Burn and the Harvest essence. What we received in front of us after ordering was a beautifully crafted cocktail, in very cool glasses that we really liked, and delicious to boot. I was worried the habanero tequila would overpower the Blush and Burn but that was not the case at all. The cocktail had a delicious spicy kick to it while having refreshing cooling effect from the grapefruit soda and sweetness from the strawberry habanero syrup. The Harvest Essence was also such a good mezcal cocktail and enjoyed the sip I got from my wife. Overall the bar has really good decor and cool vibe even with it just being us in there. To top it off the bartender, Marissa, was very friendly and chatted it up with us as we enjoyed our cocktails past the bar closing time. This is definitely a place I want to visit again before we leave. read more

The ricotta!? Good lord that dish was phenomenal. The drinks i unfortunately don't remember the names but my partner and i absolutely loved our drinks and will be excited to come back to do this all over again.

The Rose Garden AZ - Ricotta that has been blessed with everything good - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This downtown Phoenix place has a great ambiance. Our server told us the story about Rose Garden and a peacock competing for the attention of being the most beautiful. That explains all of the roses and peacocks in the decor. There is even a stuffed peacock in the center of the room hanging from the ceiling surrounded by fringed lights. The bar has one side in the building and one side on the patio, and there is a rather large patio outside on 1st avenue. When you enter the bar from the building, as opposed to the patio, you're given a rose - - a very nice touch! We had a great server who took the time to help with the menu and tell us the story of Penrose the peacock. We arrived during happy hour which had great deals on classic cocktails, but we decided to order off the specialty menu. We got: *Take a Stroll--a fruity tequila an aperol cocktail *Voyage of Penrose--a tropical rum drink served in a peacock cup *Golden Harvest Charcuterie *XXXtra Spicy Pala Flatbread Cocktails were top notch. I really loved with a capital L the Take a Stroll! The flatbread was really, really small for $18, and tasted mediocre at best. But no worry because the Golden Harvest Charcuterie made up for it. It was huge and had a great combination of meats and cheeses. I'm not sure if I'll race back, but it's a decent option if you're in the area. read more

Great drinks, even better service. I came here with a friend to celebrate my birthday. Every staff member we interacted with was so so kind. We do their special for 2 people where it's $97 for 4 drinks and 3 appetizers. Everything was so good. The decor is so pretty too. Will be returning for a date night with my husband read more

We stumbled across this place while visiting AZ, and it turned out to be the perfect spot to link up before or after dinner. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, and you could tell they were very knowledgeable about the drinks--how they're crafted and the fact that they only use fresh ingredients. The décor is beautiful and elegant, giving the space an upscale vibe. Definitely a bar to put on your list! The food was just ok but cocktails were superior read more

The ambiance here is serene and really does feel like a garden party. I enjoy both the indoor and outdoor bar when the weather is nice. The drinks are pleasant, if pricey. The same can be said for the food- pricey and small portions but good quality. The biggest drawback is the high turnover of bartenders. It seems like the staff has been generally disgruntled with management since they opened. I don't think I've ever had the same bartender twice. If they reduce their prices to make them more reasonable and treat their staff well, this could easily be a 5 star cocktail bar. If you do go- I'd recommend the ricotta dip and Voyage of Pemrose cocktail. Be aware- they don't offer food in the summer. Pretty crazy, right? I'd appreciate if they had their full menu year round. No other cocktail bar downtown reduces the menu for the summer. read more

When I go out, I like to visit three spots in one evening. Because good spots come in threes. After the second spot we checked out, I hopped on the trusty Yelp app to find the third and final one. The Rose Garden AZ had good reviews and was a short walk away, so we made our way over. Located in downtown Phoenix, this bar and restaurant definitely stands out. Ambiance (3/5): This is what The Rose Garden stands out for. If the nam doesn't give it away, there's floral decor everywhere. The best way I can sum it up is that this spot definitely play into Instagram culture. There are photo opps galore. Not my vibe, especially because it seems overdone here. Service (4/5): We arrived close to closing time and sat at the bar. There was only one other party there with us. So, not a busy house, and the bartender took care of us efficiently. He greeted us promptly, checked in on us, and when I grabbed ahold of him to close out, he took care of things quickly. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior so no food on this visit. However, I did peruse the menu and found that it's mostly light bites. Salads and flatbreads and such. Drinks (3/5): The Rose Garden is cocktail-centric and they do have some interesting options. My cocktail was vodka-based and came with fresh thyme. It was solid but there was a bit of sticker shock as most of their cocktails are between $17-$25. Well done but a little pricey for what you get. The Rose Garden is a solid bar. Not quite my type of bar but one that would appeal to some. read more

If you're looking for the perfect night out, look no further than the Rose Garden Cocktail Lounge--and make sure Haneen is your server! She's not just amazing at what she does; she is the experience. From the moment we arrived, the lounge's romantic, floral atmosphere set the tone--soft lighting, cozy seating, and elegant details everywhere. But the real magic started when Haneen greeted us with the warmest smile. She's effortlessly charming, attentive without hovering, and has an intuitive sense for timing. It felt like she could read the table's vibe perfectly. She guided us through the cocktail menu with genuine excitement and nailed every recommendation. Her passion for the craft and the customer experience shows in every detail. We also ordered the cannoli, and WOW--beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Haneen hyped them up, and she was so right. Creamy, delicate, and the perfect sweet finish. Haneen is a true gem. She turned a simple night out into something special. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server, you're in for a treat. Rose Garden, you've got a star on your hands! read more

My group and I came here after Harumi and we were seated right away. At the time, there was only a table of two in there. The entrance and interior is really pretty. I've been here once before about 2 years ago and remembered liking the drinks last time. They have some small bites on their menu but if you're super hungry and looking for something more filling, maybe eat somewhere else first. Our orders: Terminus $20 - a creamy, tropical flavored drink. The banana flavor was a bit strong but still good overall! I tend to choose the drink with coconut milk. Harvest Essence $17 - a smoky mezcal drink. My friend said it was good Take a Stroll x2 $15 - light and refreshing. They loved it Tequila Blanco w/ Sprite $14 - one friend switched to her usual for her 2nd round drink Nice vibe and ambiance. Bartender was nice and attentive. Great place for a date night or girls night out! read more

Haven't been to the Rose Garden in years, but I saw an instagram ad for a paint and sip so we decided to go! They have canvases, paints, brushes, and sponges at the front table, and you can grab whatever you'd like to paint. It is not one of those events where someone walks you through what to pain, so you have full creative freedom. There's no additional cost to paint, but in order to participate, you have to order two items which is quite easy to do considering it's a paint and sip. So you and a friend with one drink each easily covers that requirement. There was only one server/bartender/all of the above working that afternoon and I felt for him after learning he had just started and was left alone to run the place with this event going on. An hour~ish later, another employee showed up and then people were then able to order food, but by that point we were wrapping up our painting and had already set sights for another establishment to procure some food. read more

The Rose Garden AZ - ambience - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The Rose Garden in downtown Phoenix is a whimsical cocktail bar with an enchanting atmosphere in the U.S. Bank building. The venue offers lush decor with florals, soft lighting, and a resident peacock, creating a unique escape from the bustling city outside. Each drink is artfully presented with playful garnishes that make them Instagram-worthy. Alongside the drinks, guests can enjoy a selection of small bites like pork belly sliders, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed evening or after-work drinks.​ Even at the end, presentation matters. I love how they discreetly bring your check to you in a hallow book box. I was in awe of how cute it looked and how it went with the bar's theme. I was impressed. This location is excellent for hanging out, drinking, talking, or enjoying the environment. read more

Well, this is disappointing for me to be leaving such a poor review. I have been here many times and have had an exceptional experience each time until last Saturday. Two of my friends and I came in for drinks -- I love their cocktails here and the ambiance. However, during our time here, the server ended up dropping a platter next to me and what I believe is ranch splashed all over my black blazer and my leg. I thought it was only me, but it ended up splashing onto my friend's black dress as well. Apologies were said and the server brought me a bar rag to wipe ourselves off. Then, our server kinda just disappeared after that incident... we had to go to the bar for our drinks. To say I am disappointed with the service given the price point of this establishment and the incident at hand is an understatement. No manager came up to apologize or ask if we were okay or to offer us some other mediation -- but I did see him leaning against the wall at the hostess stand and watching everything go down. Lol. Probably won't be back. read more

My experience was not great...popped in after dinner at harumi, there were 20 people, 1 bartender and the cook was the waiter. Waited forever to have a drink ordered. I got one of the nonalcoholic drinks since I had just had a wonderful one at Rough Rider, and it tasted like it was just canned pineapple juice in my glass it was supposed to have some sort of cinnamon and I think a tonic but I have a very good palate and all it tasted like was canned pineapple juice. Took forever to get the check but I think we left just in time as another party of like 10 showed up as we were leaving. 1. I didn't say when i was there not even a day of the week... 2. All of your drinks should be the same level you should not tell the customer they ordered wrong. 3. After the experience and this response, I doubt I'll be back. I understand it was busy but the drink that took over 20 minutes was still bad and that has nothing to do with how many people are there. read more

Stopped by for happy hour and sat at the bar. bartenders were very friendly and very knowledgeable. They just launched some new drinks the day we were there. Ambiance was fun with floral elements and peacock chandelier. Cocktail got the Caribbean Cowboy was tiki'esque and cinnamon forward, which I really liked. Matcha My Freak was a cool presentation, pistachio liqueur added an interesting note, and matcha was not over powering. Got Ricotta Blossom as an app. light app, hefty scoop of ricotta with salty sweet mixture of chopped toppings. Was delicious but could have used more naan as ate all of it. read more

My friends and I came here on November 8 for my birthday and were discriminated against By a very rude bartender that was heavily tattooed. Their hours of operation on Google and on their website were incorrect, and so we arrived while the bar was closing, and as we were simply asking questions and showing them the discrepancy on their website and on Google, the tattooed man, with his manager next to him, proceeded to berate us and yell at us for something that was an honest mistake created due to their misinformation on their website and on Google. This is not a black girl friendly bar. I do not recommend going there if you want to feel safe. We also have pictures and videos of this encounter that have been posted to socials for proof. read more

Set up is gorgeous. Drapey plants cover the entrance and ceiling, rose decor and paintings all over. The bar creates bar seating indoor and outdoor and a section for outdoor seating. Indoor seating is also available but the space is on the smaller side. We walked in at 7 on a Sat no reservations and got bar seating before a surge at 8. They were booed for tables. Drinks were craft style but I found the result of my witch doctor to be basic in flavor profile 3/5. Friend gave her TexMexTini 4/5. Didn't have food. read more

Came here after a show to wait for traffic to cool down Saturday night and thought it was very well decorated. The ambiance was great and the staff was so lovely. We sat at the wraparound bar on the outer side and had the perfect view of the bartenders making craft cocktails. It was great! The food was pretty good. We got the mushroom tart which could use a little less balsamic and would be perfect. We also ordered the porkbelly sliders. The porkbelly itself was cooked well but they definitely need new buns because it was very dry and not tasty. Our cocktails on the other hand was delicious!!! I'm trying to cut back alcohol so i ordered their mock tail out of curiosity and thought it was very tasty and had the perfect amount of sweetness. Another thing that did stand out to us was the manager and the staff were very social and actually looked happy to be there which i love seeing when i check out new restaurants. Definitely check them out! Music was great too! read more

I had been wanting to try out this bar for a while because of friends' recommendations. I finally got to check it out for my birthday celebration. We had a big group of 10 people so I needed to book a table in advance. During the reservation process, I had to pay a fee that was equal to the amount of two drinks relatively, and this fee would go towards the purchases. Other than that, the reservation process was fairly easy. The inside of this place was really cute, and indeed filled with flower decorations. I tried one of their popular cocktail although I do not remember the name of it. I also got to try their matcha shot which was surprisingly tasty. The options on the menu were geared toward sweet and pretty drinks in my opinion. If you prefer less strong and more sweet drinks, especially with a pretty presentation, this is your place. Our friends also ordered some of the food items. They were tasty but could be a bit overpriced. However, being located in downtown Phoenix would justify the price, I suppose. This place is also close to a few other hot spots in town, such as Harumi sushi, Trophy Room, and some other speakeasies. It is a perfect stop for a bar-hopping night out! read more
