Very disappointing experience from start to finish. A friend and I originally planned to meet at…read morethe 7th Street location at 6 p.m., which is still listed on their website as one of two locations. I arrived a bit before 6 to find it closed, no sign on the door and nothing online stating it had closed. So we headed downtown to the second location. I arrived about 6:10 pm and was asked if I had a reservation. I explained that we went to the other location only to find it closed and when we called the only number on the website to make a reservation (earlier in the day), no one answered the phone. We called multiple times. The guy at the door informed us the other location had closed and he couldn't seat us until 8 pm unless we wanted to sit at the bar. I asked to speak with a manager and was told there was no manager there. A restaurant should always have a manager or someone on site empowered to address customer concerns. We agreed to sit at the bar. First we ordered cocktails for $17 each. While they were tasty and refreshing, they had virtually no alcohol. I ordered the Kra Pow and, on the server's recommendation, chose the pork belly. My friend ordered the Pad Ki-Mao with pork belly. After waiting 30-45 minutes for the food, it finally arrived. Mine was dry pieces of pork belly, dry rice, an egg and three cucumber slices, no sauce whatsoever. When I asked for sauce, I was offered soy sauce and hot chili. My friend's noodles were tasty, but she also thought her pork belly was dry. The server, who was also the host and bartender didn't check in on us a single time during our meal. Between the outdated website, unanswered phone, lack of management and service, long wait and underwhelming food and drinks, the entire experience was extremely disappointing. I expected much more from this place.

LeDu Thai has been one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Phoenix since trying the Roosevelt Row…read morelocation last year. I hadn't tried this location on 7th until just recently, when I came by during happy hour with some friends. There is a spacious parking lot tucked away in the back, opposite of the street view side. This is also where the entrance is! Walk toward the breezeway and it's to your right. Immediately, we were greeted by our host and the warm/inviting atmosphere. I'm impressed by how well decorated both LeDu locations are, in unique ways. We got the fried tofu, passion fizz, lychee martini, jungle bird, and my usual pad thai with beef and beansprouts on the side. Passion Fizz: passion fruit, demerera, sparkling wine - sweet, light, refreshing Lychee martini: vodka, lychee, dry vermouth, lime - sweet, strong, lychee flavor is perfect and not overpowering Jungle Bird: spiced rum, campari, pineapple, lime - sweet, deep flavor from the rum Fried tofu: a little dry even with the sauce, a small portion for the price, not my favorite Pad thai: tangy/sweet, packed with flavor, always delicious from LeDu! Definitely down for another happy hour or meal here anytime!

We stopped in as we were in the area and noticed they had beer flights. My husband and friends…read moreenjoy checking out different breweries and craft beer spots so we made a pit stop to check it out. Dynamite Beer Co seems like a great locals spot. Everyone appeared to know each other or were just friendly patrons. They have a dog friendly patio with picnic style tables, board games, cooler full of the beer they have on draft. The place seamed clean and spacious. The bartender, Stephanie was very friendly and attentive. They do have a tasty looking food menu but we had already eaten so didn't have an opportunity to check out the options. Stephanie mentioned their beer menu changes often which is interesting. My husband and uncle ordered beer flights and since I don't drink beer, I ordered wine. Everything we tasted was good. We had a nice experience overall.

Great layout, great service, a sense of humor, and great beer. Though they had some pilot beers of…read moretheir own when I went, most were from other breweries, and an outstanding selection at that. Their website says Cave Creek is coming in 2026 so I'm not sure how that works. They serve food as well. Not a huge menu, but still great bar bites to go along with the beer. The Bierhaus Pretzel - a jumbo soft pretzel served with spicy brown mustard & creamy whipped feta and the Dirty Birdie Nachos - crispy tortilla chips, buffalo ranch sauce, pulled chicken, blue cheese crumbles, green onions, ranch drizzle worked out well for the table. The Whipped Feta Board - creamy whipped feta cheese, meyer lemon marmalade, marcona almonds, warm stonebread needed a marmalade that was a little easier to work with. They also sell four-packs and a good selection of single cans, too, which is a great bonus.
