Just wanted to say what a great experience we had at Tryst on Wednesday, July 15th at Mommies and Mimosas for the first day back to school. We had a group of 8 moms and had called ahead to reserve a table and got there and got sat right away. Ash and the runners took such great care of us with food and refills. We ended up spending about 4 hours there and had such a great time and will defintely be back. It was packed more than normal because of the first day of school, but they all were working hard and taking great care of all the tables. Thanks Ash! read more

Had breakfast/lunch there. Staff was super nice atmosphere was nice and relaxing for Sunday afternoon. My second visit and I will be back

I went to Tryst Cafe for brunch with a group of seven on a Saturday afternoon. We made a reservation through Yelp right before just to be safe. However, when we checked in, they couldn't find our reservation, which was fine because they weren't super busy and were able to seat us right away. We only had one server, but he did well managing our group. I ordered the following: Almond milk latte Parmesan fries Super kale omelet The fries were decent, but could have used a lot more parmesan. The super kale omelet was alright. It was an egg white omelet with sautéed kale, spinach, roasted tomato, goat cheese, avocado, and flax seed; with fruit, no bread. My iced latte was also just okay. I really appreciate the many vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Our group had various dietary preferences and restrictions and everyone was accommodated. read more

Tryst Cafe has been serving Phoenix and Chandler for 16 years, using local ingredients whenever possible. After working out on a Saturday morning, a group of us came to Tryst Cafe for some good eats. I ordered: - Fried Fish Tacos ($17.50 - Tempura battered cod, cabbage, pineapple, chipotle ranch): These were some solid fried fish tacos. Bright, flavorful, and very enjoyable. The pineapple added a nice freshness. - Espresso martini ($13 - Three Olives vodka, coffee liqueur, Amaretto, Irish Cream, and a shot of Espresso): Not the most exciting espresso martini or the strongest but one that hits the right notes. I also totally stole a good portion of my friend's garlic parmesan fries. They tasted a little greasy but they had such a nice crunchy coating that it didn't matter. They offer Gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian dishes so there should be something for everybody. read more

First I should say that I'm not gluten free, which seems to be Tryst Cafe's niche. But I will say the menu has a ton of gluten free options, so if you're gluten free, this is the place to go There is a dog friendly patio and an indoor/outdoor bar. Our server was kind of quiet, but he got the job done. It has a kind of botanical them. They have a full bar, and I ordered an Amaretto Sour. It was just okay--heavy on the sweet and sour and light on the amaretto. By the end of the meal, my cocktail had separated and it looked like some weird stuff floating in the middle. For my meal I ordered the ahi tuna melt. The bread was a grilled Parmesan gluten free brioche, it was delicious. You'd never even know it was gluten free. The sandwich, though was very bland--almost no flavor. On the other hand, the side salad was so good. The dressing was delicious! All in all, I thought Tryst was okay. Perhaps if you must eat gluten free, this place would be a winner. read more

It's a little far. Plus the interior was kinda drab. The food was adequate but I suggest they jazz up the interior and add a little excitement to the menu. read more

The appetizers and drinks were so yummy and perfect for sharing with friends while we sat and chitchatted on the patio. The patio itself has such a cute vibe and made for a really fun, relaxing evening together. read more

After a tough workout at Burn Boot Camp, my friends and I needed some grub, and conveniently, Tryst Cafe was right across the road. In the spirit of the morning's workout, I decided to stick to healthy, and ordered the Asian Jackfruit Bowl... but also drank a cold draft beer... the most refreshing drink on another day of record-breaking heat in the Valley! Some of my friends seemed slightly disappointed with their food orders, but my bowl hit the spot. The quinoa was fluffy, and the Jackfruit was cooked to perfection in an Asian-chipotle sauce. The price was a little high at 18 bucks, but Tryst is a nice place for food, drinks, and conversation with friends. read more

Walked over to try this place for beer and an app. Definitely wasn't disappointed by the laid back atmosphere, attentiveness of the staff, and food and beer selections. Both my husband and I got local beers we hadn't had in a while and we also got the Parmesan garlic fries to share. The beers were crisp and again, brought over so quick. The fries were the perfect crispy texture and had a perfect amount of shredded parm and some parsley, but unfortunately the garlic was a little light (I would definitely ask for more in the future). Will definitely go back for a full meal in the future. read more

Good food, open seating, decent food options. M kids loved th food too. Cozy organic lunch with my hubby--gluten-free options with fresh, all-natural eats. The Buffalo Chicken Wrap, : grilled chicken in spicy buffalo sauce, wrapped with lettuce, tomato, pepper jack, and ranch--crispy, bold, and satisfying without the grease. Will come back read more

We were driving by after a photo shoot in the area and decided to stop and have brunch on their shared patio. No wait for seating, server was really good about checking in. The Wife enjoyed her traditional Tryst Breakfast and I was excited to see a version of a traditional Hawaiian breakfast on the menu. Everything came out pretty quick and was tasty. My only feedback would have been that there is no salt or pepper on the tables, would have been nice if that was there so we could season our food to taste. Overall, glad we stopped by and we will keep this location in mind for the next time we are in the area. read more

We were on our way to flagstaff and were looking for a lunch. Tryst has a really cool vibe. Started with the buffalo cauliflower. It was too sour and the ranch didn't improve the flavor. The soup and the salad were amazing!! Highly recommend! That broth in the soup was so flavorful. The service was excellent. read more

Tryst is a nice little spot with a lot of options from egg dishes, French toast, pancakes, burgers, salads, sandwiches, tacos, seafood, coffees, teas, and smoothies. I tried out their bison burger and basic mango smoothie. This cost me $36.92 (includes tax and tip). The bison burger was pretty good; I wish it had a tomato in it though to complete it. The mango smoothie was very small for its cost so I would say to avoid that and stick to the entrees instead. Service was nice enough. read more

Met up here with some friends. I had never been before and the Ambiance was lovely, clean, and sunny. The menu had a very nice variety, lots of GF options for my friend. I had the corned beef hash breakfast. Then leeks actually made it an odd taste for me so it was meh. I know it was freshly made and their recipe, just not my fav. The sweet tots were yummy. The service was interesting....the server was good, but he was not around very often, which was surprising as it was not super busy. He was kind and sweet regardless. The food runner girl was... special....four incidents that made us laugh and confused....first she brought us food and clearly we were still reading the menu; second, she brought me hotsauces I didn't ask for but there were hot sauces in the dish on our table already; 3rd, I asked for ketchup, she brought it and I raise my hand that it's for me but she put it in front of my friend further away; lastly, she brought out another dish and clearly we had already paid and finished... The interesting service won't detour me from going back but it was memorable to say the least. read more

I came here for lunch with my sister. We ordered the beer battered green beans, which was very good. Then we ordered the fish taco to share. They give you 3 soft tacos in corn tortilla. I would've preferred flour tortillas, not sure if that was an option. The fish was great, and one taco filled me up already. But overall I felt it was just ok. I liked the ambiance of the place. Would love to come back for brunch next time. Our server was very nice. read more

Had lunch here with a group of ladies on 2/25/25. Not too busy. Fantastic & attentive waitress. We all really enjoyed our lunches - fresh & delicious. 3 of us got desserts (see pics). Sorry i didn't take a pic of the dessert menu. They had ~6 options. One got affogato - served with so much espresso the ice cream/gelato all melted & basically became a latte (she prefers Bella Gustos in Chandler). Another had some sort of strawberry & banana covered cheesecake with chocolate sauce which she enjoyed. I had tiramisu- which tasted delicious (but about half the size of what they serve at Pesto's Italian Kitchen in Chandler). read more

Tryst Cafe--Chandler https://trystcafe.com/chandler/ Last night, 3-31-25, we decided to try Tryst Cafe for dinner. I found their menu on their website, and it looked really good. WOW--was this a good call. First off, the ambiance and service at this place are wonderful. The restaurant was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. Devin was our waitress, and she never skipped a beat. She knew the menu very well, and all her suggestions were spot on. Devin was so friendly and attentive to our needs--We would come back to Tryst Cafe for the service alone--but you probably want to know a little about the food by now. This restaurant serves all natural meats with no antibiotics ever--not just the chicken, but beef and pork as well. Their attention to a healthy--good for you--menu is commendable. We started with the riblets and Parmesan fries. The fries were double fried--as all fries should be--so they had that crisp outside and soft inside. The riblets were amazing, and the sauce would make a flipflop taste good. My wife the all natural hamburger, and she said it was wonderful. I had the bison burger with white cheddar--it was outstanding. Our granddaughter had the fried fish tacos--she loved them--I nipped a piece of the fish and can confirm they were amazing. We all three had the sweet potato tots--extra crispy, as suggested by Devin--and all I can say WOW! We will definitely be frequenting Tryst Cafe in Chandler--I really want to to work my way through the menu. Honestly there are so many good things they offer that it's hard to choose. I highly recommend this restaurant, and they are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. read more

I was looking for a place that focuses on healthier food in Gilbert and have been here a few times and have tried different things every time but my favorite thing I have tried so far on the menu is the Thai shrimp lettuce wraps, they're the best and Tryst also has a lot of cute drinks to choose from. Had the nicest bartender :) read more

What happened to Egg Benedict? Came in excited to try the Eggs Benedict, but left genuinely confused. What we were served was far from the classic dish -- instead of the expected English muffin, poached egg, and Hollandaise, we got something drowned in sauce, topped with a giant raw tomato that completely overpowered everything. It felt more like a random fridge experiment than a thoughtful brunch dish. The flavors didn't come together at all, and honestly, it just didn't taste good. If you're craving a traditional Eggs Benedict, this isn't it. Disappointing, especially since it wasn't a cheap plate. Also worth noting -- when we asked for a Flat White, the person taking our order had no idea what that was. Not a huge deal, but kind of surprising for a place serving brunch. read more

My buddy and I wanted someplace healthy shortly after lunch on a Sunday. It was busy but not so busy that we had to wait for a table. The server was patient and attentive. He had some strong recommendations, which is always appreciated, as I rarely order by looking at the menu. I had the Ahi Tuna Melt and it was pretty good. I personally would have appreciated some jalapeños, or hot peppers. They had a relatively large selection of healthy-type foods. I say "healthy-type" because they looked healthy-ish but I haven't tried them, yet, so I don't know. I could definitely see going back!! read more

I was SO disappointed in my experience this morning - I invited some other moms to Tryst to toast our seniors - I did not make a reservation, as we weren't eating & didn't want to take up a table for others who were, so we gathered around the bar. It took several minutes to be greeted & the gentleman behind the bar was clearly irritated by our presence - hastily pouring out mimosas & telling us we couldn't stand in the walk way - not our fault for poor bar design. We noticed that a larger group had left the back room area & so we asked if we could go back there - mostly to get out of the way. Three of my friends left before they even had water. Once back there, we were told we needed to go out to the patio (it's 100+ & humid) while they cleared the tables - it was such a disaster & I was so embarrassed because I had planned it all & wanted to have a special moment to honor this special day. We have supported Tryst for YEARS - even through Covid. I'm SO disappointed, but I will not be returning to Tryst. read more

Tryst Café: Where Book Clubs and Almost Bottomless Mimosa's Reign Supreme If you're looking for a restaurant that can handle a small army of book lovers armed with opinions and an unhealthy obsession with fictional characters, look no further than Tryst Café. Our book club--nearly 30 strong--descended upon this establishment like a horde of ravenous readers after a six-hour binge session, and somehow, the staff didn't even flinch. Not only did they accommodate our book-loving chaos, but they did so with the patience of a seasoned librarian dealing with a rogue toddler in the fiction section. The service was top-tier--Justin somehow managed to keep track of our endless drink orders, dietary quirks, and passionate debates over morally gray love interests without breaking a sweat. (Seriously, someone give him a medal) The food? Chef's kiss. From indulgent brunch classics to fresh, flavorful bites, every dish was a winner--unlike the ending of that one book we still aren't over (you know the one). Whether you're in the mood for a hearty omelet or something plant-based that won't make you feel like you're missing out, Tryst has your back. The ambiance was warm, inviting, and just quiet enough that we could passionately talk about everything but books without disturbing innocent bystanders. And let's not forget the drinks--cocktails that could make even the most tragic fictional heartbreak feel a little less painful. If you're looking for a spot that can handle your bookish crew with grace, humor, and the efficiency of a well-organized library catalog, Tryst Café is the place to be. 10/10, would absolutely host another meeting here (and probably will). read more

Always a great experience at Tryst, with both food and staff! Look forward to my next visit.

We didn't have reservations and were seated right away (as usual). Got in just before their daily happy hour ended so we were able to get some of their specials. Glad to be seated indoors since the sun is still out and strong. Surprised we were seated at a table instead of a booth but saw that they had not been cleared yet. We've been here several times on different days and believe this might be the first time we've been in on a Sunday. Not overly crowded when we arrived but quickly started to fill up before we left. Started with some beer and gin & juniper and beer battered green beans. Everything came out promptly and nice and cool or hot as appropriate. Bbq bacon burger and sweet potato veggie burger were quite nice and the servings were generous and perfectly temped. We like coming here since it's so convenient to get to with lots of parking depending on the day and time (shared parking with EOS gym). We didn't see our regular server today but everyone else took good care of us. read more

Two friends and I had dinner at Tryst Saturday night and It was VERY good. The staff was friendly and knowledgable. My friend and I both ordered the beef enchiladas and I must say it was one of the best enchilada dishes I have ever had! My other friend had mac and cheese with shrimp and he raved about it.

Cute location! The Buffalo Califlower was a little underwhelming and could have been roasted through more. Other than that, the hemp tamales were very good. I'm not vegan and didn't realize it but I ended up having a complete vegan lunch (minus the ranch). I sat at the bar and the server was very diligent, granted the place wasn't crowded but it's always a bonus. Defintely worth checking out this spot. read more
