Nice atmosphere, good music, and decent food. Service can surely be improved as wait staff isn't really attentive. There was only 1 person walking around and checking on tables. Waited long for glasses of water, which had gunk in them. Hummus was really cold and some parts were frozen so hoping for better room temp or fresh hummus next time, but well tasted good. The tamales were delicious, the side of cabbage was unnecessary as it was raw with no dressing. Fish n chips was the worst. Fish and fries both were soggy and my husband didn't even eat half of it. We'd surely come back to try other dishes, just not the fried soggy stuff. read more

Tryst Cafe - Hawaiian breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I live close to this place however this will probably not be a family favorite. The food was good yet if the service was better it would have made our first visit a lot more desirable. Our server wasn't very welcoming since the initial greeting. We sat at our table for about 10 mins before he came to introduce himself. Which I didn't even hear his name ! He continued to forget items and was unapologetic about it. Once we got our food we still didn't have any silverware to eat with which should have been given within the first few minutes of being seated. This experience was a little disappointing because service is usually wonderful this area. read more

We went there today for Sunday brunch to celebrate my Dad's birthday. It's so nice to have a safe place for my family members allergic to gluten to eat. The food and service were both great! The only reason for not giving it 5 stars was the music. They had a DJ playing loud music the entire time. I mean LOUD ... like it was some kind of nightclub. This was a dude with a stand in the middle of the room, headphones, spinning records... A full on DJ. It was so odd. I don't understand the thought behind that at all. I just wanted to eat some eggs and hang out with my fam. It was not enjoyable for any of us and we had a hard time hearing each other. I felt bad for some of the older people there because I could tell they couldn't hear their friends either. We'll try it again because, like I said, everything else was great. Maybe next time I'll call ahead and see what time the DJ will be there read more

Tryst is a gem of a find. Nice outdoor seating, super cute inside with an in/out bar top. The drinks and food I've tried have all been delicious. Especially their espresso martini. The service has always been top notch. You can tell they take care of their staff as they are happy to be there. Special thanks to Carter who is awesome! read more

Beer battered green beans were great and so was the garlic Parmesan fries! The Bbq burgers were wonderful.

Been here a few times. Middle of the road nice brunch place. You can bring Fido, which is good. Can be loud. Which is okay. The food is above average, so are the prices. Service is okay, regulars get all the attention. I am not one. Hard to park sometimes. Because of so many businesses and do few spaces. I am trying to sample every menu item to see if I'm nuts over anything. Not yet, still trying. It's a pleasant brunch spot to get tanked and bring Fido. That's my opinion. read more

Tryst was a great surprise. Food was not only beyond yummy but came out faster than expected. We had the southwest salad and the pesto penne pasta. Both 5 out 5 stars. Will be back for breakfast. Served till 2pm. Bloody Mary's were top notch! read more

Awesome brunch vibe with a live DJ! Food was awesome, and server was attentive and friendly. Glad we found this place! read more

Great brunch , food is really good Staff and rests are very friendly and nice Wait times are short despite that it is a busy restaurant read more

Great service, but very overpriced for what it was. Expected more of a personalized vibe even though it's apparently a chain. The food was ok, slightly overcooked. All butter and jam in packets. Interestingly, the apparent manager came around and checked on all of the tables around me at least twice during my visit, but never stopped by mine once (maybe because I was traveling on business and was alone? I don't know. Odd, though.). All in all, felt like a slightly-better decorated meal from Denny's. Cost $20ish for simple egg breakfast & coffee with no extras. I don't recommend it. read more

Food was excellent and so was the service. Will be back again and soon. Was here a long time ago and it was great and we decided to try it again. Tryst will be in our rotation. read more

Typically love Tryst. Usually great food and service. Last visit was lack luster. Service was extremely slow. I always order the reuben because it is consistently amazing. Not so much this time. Very little kraut and almost nonexistent thousand island, there was a little dollop of both in the center of the sandwich. The drinks were great though. read more

Tryst Cafe - Where is the kraut and 1000 island? - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Drove 20 min thinking this was a healthy fresh restaurant. Feels like a chain- Table top was dirty and sticky. Ambiance is a strip mall. Server was great but food was less than mediocre. Poke bowel was fishy and ahi tasted old. Just not what I was hoping for. read more

Absolutely delightful dining experience was had at Tryst Cafe. The hostess was so welcoming and friendly. It's so nice to see people who seem to enjoy their work and have pride in service. The waiter was just as pleasant. We were checked on frequently. You could tell the staff knows the menu and feels confident in the quality of food they're serving. It's a great decor with an indoor/outdoor, bright, natural feel. So, as soon as you walk in you have great staff and ambience. The menu just adds to the pleasantness. My salad was huge. I was full but couldn't stop eating. The grilled chicken is flavorful and cooked to perfection. The fruit was fresh and tasty. The nuts are to die for. My friend enjoyed his food, as well. The sauce for the wraps was scrumptious. I can't wait to come back. It's great to have healthy food that actually tastes good. My vegan friend from Tucson made a great choice for his visit. Look this place up and get there fast! read more

Great food, excellent service!!! My fiancé was so happy to find a high quality eatery that is Gluten-Free!

Food was amazing! Great healthy options! Service was on point, friendly and efficient wait staff!

Tryst is a unique place to eat. Their menu has a slight twist that makes them that way. The food taste and quality was excellent. We tried the Hawaiian breakfast and the banana quinoa pancakes. It was very filling as well. I recommend this place if your a foodie and want to experience something other than the norm. read more

The food was simply amazing so I can't hold the service against it. When the restaurant is slow and you still can't get service you know it's bad. However, the food was absolutely amazing. I had the tamales (plant based) and they were probably one of the best I ever had. I'm finding it easier and easier to maintain a Plant based lifestyle with options like this. Will definitely be back, I'll just make sure I have ample time to sit and wait and I'll bring my own water refills. read more

Please Hire More Staff!! I have tried this place 3 or 4 times now with the same experience - there is NO STAFF! I have never seen more than one server working the entire restaurant. A bus boy also worked as a hostess, seating people at tables. I was in earlier this week, and the only one server was also the bartender. He took my drink order, never delivered drinks. I did get my food, but when I asked for dressing, it never came. The outdoor patio was filthy! The food is terribly overpriced. $17 for a burger and fries? It's not that good. This restaurant has SO much potential...but you've got to hire some staff, and a better Manager. read more

Such a welcome change from the usual chain restaurants. Friendly and attentive staff, great variety on the menu and a fun spot for dinner. We love the jackfruit bowl and the ahi tuna salad. Looking forward to trying breakfast or brunch next. read more

Tryst Cafe Chandler 4205 S Gilbert Rd, Chandler AZ 85249 June 11, 2021 Friday- 6 PM for dinner 5 Adults Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 4 stars Background - Time to celebrate our new house with our kids.  Again I picked a place a little too far but worth it . Atmosphere - As a party of 5, we were kinda given a room to ourselves.  They have a weird wall that sits at the end of the dining area which does not attach to any other walls.  There was space for two tables back there.  So I did not get to take in much of the place other than entering and leaving. Food Drink - My quest for local beers continues, today I had a sour that did not make you pucker up.  Helton's Boysenberry Sour, a fruity drink with a little tang. Dinner - I had a burger last night, but their burger menu looks great.  My son had the sweet potato veggie burger which was open faced, which he enjoyed.  I had the Pork Adobo Tacos.  Do not let the habanero cream scare you as there was not much of a punch with it.  I wish there was a little more heat, but it did let the pork shine.  The pork was clearly the star and these tacos were packed with the pork.  Three massive tacos made for a very filling meal. Service - I dinged them for the first host.  I arrived right behind another party.  Not a word was spoken to me or anyone else in my party. Then he took care of the first party and never returned.  Finally a hostess showed up.  She was very pleasant and sat us immediately.  Our waitress was great, made suggestions and was on point with them. Future - I could see coming back here. read more

We happened on this after a walk at round Veteran's Oasis Park. We choose it because they are dog friendly. Awesome patio with options of tables or couch seating. We had three different things on the menu...Summer Rolls, Bowl with Jackfruit, and Strawberry Custard French Toast. All three dishes were top notch! The rolls were so fresh and full of veggies finely diced and came with a great sweet chili sauce. The bowl had jackfruit and quinoa and veggies and the most delicious seasonings. And the French toast was decadent and filled with a yummy custard. Also had a strawberry banana smoothie which you could tell was fresh made...had bits of green from the strawberry stems. One of new favorite places! Fresh, with lots of vegan and veggie options and they can also work with gluten free. Such a yummy place to eat! read more

We have been here multiple times and have been very satisfied with everything we've eaten here. If you enjoy a good bison burger they have a great one here.

Came here with a friend after we did a small photo shoot. This place is awesome, they have vegan options, super fresh and clean eats. Everyone was so nice and the server was so helpful. They have cbd options to add to your drinks which is great for me Ilove places that have this option. After we had our meal the server insisted we try the gluten free brownie... i'm not a gluten free kind of person but wow this brownie was delicious. They have a location in phoenix that im trying to go to with friends. Really enjoyed this place! read more

Tryst is one of our favorite places in Chandler. Cocktails & Brad are always excellent as is the food. The riblets appetizer and sliders are always good. Breakfast is also wonderful. Beautiful atmosphere, clean, great service! read more

Nice place good service. Bring a jacket. A/C very cold. Food is good. I had a cheeseburger and it was cooked great and had great taste.Asked for crispy fries and got them perfect. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich Great portion. Could not finish but taste great. Surprised with the sweet potatoes puffs. Really good. Will return. read more

This place is amazing! The food is top notch and the service is excellent. And I love that I can make a reservation if I want to plan a group outing with friends. I planned a holiday lunch with my girlfriends and each one of us ordered a different dish and we were so happy with everything we ate. Plus, I love the option of being able to order cocktails. If you have not been, I highly recommend that you check them out read more

The tamales were not the greatest. Service was great, and ambiance is clean and comfortable. The food was okay, but not the best.

They had great choices for breakfast and if you don't eat pork like me the chicken sausage was amazing. And for Mother's Day they were giving away free roses I thought that was a great read more

The service was good, the food was very okay. I believe our server was Johnny and he was super friendly and helpful and did a great job, so I'd say that's the biggest thing to rave about here. Also, they had a rose kombucha on tap which made me happy, and overall have a healthy and diverse menu. With that said neither my dad really loved our meals. I had the Asian jackfruit quinoa bowl and it was just okay - not particularly strong in flavor, and I'm usually a jackfruit fan. My dad actively didn't like his fish and chips (although I did steal a few fries and those were good, the complaint was more on the fish). Maybe it was just not a good night? I'm not saying I wouldn't ever come back because it wasn't so terrible that I wouldn't give it another try, it just wasn't really impressive. Props to the good service though! read more

Pretty pleased with Tryst. For food, for Service, and for ambience; We will return when we are in that area.

This has to be one of the worst dining experiences I've had in my life. First off, I waited at the hostess stand for at least 5 minutes before anybody even bothered to come see if I wanted to be seated. Upon sitting, our waitress gave us terrible service. I don't know if it was because I had asked for a gluten free meal, (I have celiac) and I bothered her by that... or because she woke up in a bad mood but she barely looked at us in the face or gave us the time of day. Her responses were curt and uncaring. On top of that, the food was not great at all and the coffee was so bitter that we could barely drink it (and my husband typically drinks black coffee.) Our waitress came back once for a drive by asking if we were good (again not giving us the time of day) and we eventually had to ask the bus guy to get our check for us. I won't ever come back here and I suggest you don't either. read more

Tried Tryst for brunch for the first time over the weekend. The family enjoyed the food and atmosphere although the portions could be a bit bigger and the fruits a bit fresher. The kids meals were good but for the price could be a bit bigger portions. But I get it, to serve organic food price and portions has to be compromised. I did however enjoy the bottomless bellinis. I'll probably be back for happy hour. read more

The vibe is great. Lots of outdoor seating. Service was terribly slow. Food was tasty but not exactly as ordered.

I've been here twice. The first time was good service, for dinner. The second time was for breakfast. A couple weird things happened- a server spilled milk on the floor and we left them know so nobody slipped and they just kind of nonchalantly said thanks. Then they forgot an order of strawberry French toast. Finally we asked for our bill and I think they forgot about us, we ended up asking another staff member and then finally got it like 20 min later. Not sure if I will give them a third try or not read more
