“Had dinner and drinks this evening, set at the bar and the bartender on duty was very plain and as soon I order my food and 1 drink, I felt pressure by the way she ask me if I wanted to close my tap. I been staying here for the last 3 weeks from Wednesday through Saturday weekly and is the first time I felt uncomfortable when having dinner on the premises. I was fortune David showed up and took over part of the bar and started making my drinks and food. Had 4 Mules , 2 tacos and Calamari. Thanks David the drinks were ?? . But overall, the experience and the food is great!!“

“Walked to the restaurant for dinner and enjoyed the experience sitting outside on the patio (although the traffic on University was noisy at times). The Carnitas Tacos were very good with the spicy pear and cream sauce while the side sweet potato fries were perfectly light and crispy. The tacos menu item came with two tacos--a third taco addition option would be nice. The Mushroom Melt was a coin flip. Kids menu items were good. There's also a nice beer list available with some local brews on tap.Service was attentive and accommodating. A very nice experience overall.“

“Interesting menu. Lots of different options, most very healthy sounding. Been here multiple times, almost always for brunch. Service and ambiance are great. The place is cute. The food is really good as well. Some of it is really healthy, some not so much but has great flavor (pasta, sandwiches). Recently we went for lunch in the middle of the week and got the Mexicali quinoa bowl and a Philly cheesecake sandwich with sweet potato fries. Both were sooooooo good. The flavors were on point. The service was very speedy for being in the middle of lunch hour rush.“

“Wildflower's buy one get one free (BOGO) is the best deal on sandwiches. You have to join their frequent diner program. They email you when they are offering this deal. Their sandwiches are big and come with various sides though some sides are an additional charge. We like the Cheddar Braised Beef that has braised beef, cheddar, cheddar & caramelized onion mashed potatoes & organic arugula on a grilled ciabatta roll with au jus, horseradish sauce & served with a side of chips for 13.99. This is a bargain compared to nearly $30.00 it normally costs. We also like it on sourdough instead of the ciabatta roll. Our only disappointment was the last time we ordered the au jus was more like gravy than a broth. Note that this is seasonal so is not always available. Our other favorite is the BLTA - bacon, lettuce, tomatoes and avocado. They also have a selection of soups, salads and pastas. And don't forget the Danish and cakes for desert.The interior was recently redone. The beverage station was moved to all self-serve. This is great as it speeds up the service. The booths were reupholstered with florescent orange. It is a little loud for our tastes. There is an outside seating area that is pet friendly. The restaurant is always clean, and the service is great though limited. You order at the counter, get a number and then the food is brought to your table. They get very busy on the weekends so plan ahead.“

“We come HERE ALL THE TIME. We love it. I do have 2 issues, they both have to do with the roll up doors (that are always open) leading to the patio. First: there are ALWAYS gnats inside the restaurant. Second: it seems like as soon as our food gets brought to our table, someone lights up a cigarette or pipe on the patio. It's very off putting given the ashtray smell and the gnats. The service is always top notch. The food is consistently good. I like being able to pay through the app. Makes paying the check a breeze.“

“Situated near the Harkins theatre within Tempe Marketplace you will find a pizza establishment called Slices. Though I've been numerous times to this outdoor shopping mall, I have not stopped in to this location. A friend suggested for a cheap slice meal for under $10 ($8.99 for the mix & match specials). I was skeptical as how can you get a slice, salad, and drink for under $10?! I'm thrilled to report it did live up to the hype! Heck, there was not just a few vegetarian options but they even had a few vegan slice options. The side salad left a lot to be desired based on my preferences on a salad. It contain spring mix, cherry tomatoes, and carrots. I wish it had croutons and romaine, but I'll consider that next visit if I return to the area. Cheese pizza is always a go to for me, and how I rate slices versus other pizza chains. Their cheese pizza slice was nice and floppy for folding - New York style is my pizza preference. Definitely loved the slice and could see myself making through the vegetarian slice thoughts, and also inquiring about the vegan ones as my peanut/treenut allergy can limit me. The interior is pretty small, so it can be hard to locate a spot to eat especially if you are with friends like I was. We did locate some seating outside which was enjoyable given the time of year. I would definitely factor seasonality as this may not be a place I would want to visit in the summer if indoor seating wasn't available. The service was both quick and friendly, so a great place to grab and go if seating isn't available.“

“Very pleased with our dinner at Milagros. My family dined here for dinner on a Tuesday night after flying into town. We were hungry and didn't know where to go and quickly learned that there was a restaurant in the hotel. The atmosphere is pleasant, the hotel and restaurant are Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired. It felt like we were sitting in an upscale lounge in the 1970s. Paige served us our dinner and was friendly, professional, and on her game. Everything was perfect, accommodating our needs as we changed our minds while ordering. I had the chicken focaccia and a side salad for dinner. The sandwich was delicious- the garlic aioli added a punch of flavor. I ended up eating it as an open-faced sandwich because the bread muted the flavors on the inside too much and I didn't want to miss those.“

I had the Ros Marino chicken which came with a delicious lemon caper sauce over a half of a chicken, which was perfectly cooked. The side of crispy but light golden potatoes soaked up the amazing sauce. My husband got the spaghetti and meatballs. The sauce was light and smooth and the meatballs were tender and moist. We topped it off with a glass of Perinni primativo which complimented the meal perfectly.It was a great meal!!!“

The Fry's were good and I should have gotten bacon on them but I would highly recommend this place. The chili was more of a Hormel chili but still good. I want to go back and try a burger because they are supposed to be pretty good and if the bun for the hamburger is even close to what they use on the hot dogs then it's gonna be a home run! They also have a very decent selection of draft beer!“

“I ordered the friend chicken which is supposed to be their stellar dish. However, although it had a very aromatic scent emanating from the skin which was seasoned with spices, once you reach the meat it was dry and bland. Not so much of a flagship dish IMO. Plus it was served with a cold, butter-less, and hardly fresh biscuit and a sad portion of mash potatoes with bitter gravy. Maybe their sandwiches and burgers are a better bet. The service was ok, food came through fast, the waitress was nice. The atmosphere was typical of a place of this nature, festive, full of beautiful people and all accompanied by live music. So in that sense it was a nice gig.“

The food and drinks were remarkable and creative, each dish and drink "wowed" us more than the last. Everyone was engaging, they also did raffles for some Pixar items, and the atmosphere was very lively. The wait staff was very patient, kind, and helpful. I stopped to chat with the chef after the event, and he's incredibly nice. We are excited to go again for another event!“

“This is definitely the best place to eat on the ASU Tempe Campus. Probably the only place where you can find healthy options. They have a rooftop seating area which is nice when the weather is just right. It is very fast and good quality healthy food. They have a limited menu of around 5-6 options, but that's the reason that the food and service are fast. Drinks, coffee, and snacks are included and you can help yourself - snacks-wise, you can grab a plate of freshly made seasoned chips while you wait for your order. I will keep going back here as it is a nice lunch spot and always reliability fast in between a busy schedule. Recommended!“

We order a variety of different things from the menu. The consensus was that the food was great. Everyone ate everything, especially the chicken and donuts with jalenpeno creme. Would have like a better portion size but would return here.“
