Otro Cafe

Otro Cafe, an early staple of Seventh Street’s restaurant row in uptown Phoenix, serves New American dishes with heavy Mexican accents. The all-day spot is owned and operated by treasured local chef and all-around nice guy Doug Robson, also of Gallo Blanco in the Garfield District. The place has plenty going for it: a formidable […]

Oven+Vine

For the surrounding neighborhood, Oven+Vine makes a comfortable and affordable place for lunch, dinner, and drinks. The menu includes starters, salads, sandwiches, flatbreads, pastas, and a handful of specialty entrées. Not everything sees the inside of the restaurant’s brick oven, but it’s clearly the focus of the restaurant’s cuisine. The price point lends itself to […]

Padre’s Modern Mexican

Delightful haute Mexican eatery with a fun atmosphere, great margaritas on the rocks, and appetizers to make your tummy sing like a sailor on shore leave. The lobster thermidor quesadilla would make Napoleon proud, since he named the original dish. And those pork enchiladas in tomatillo sauce are the bomb, boss. Live Latin music Friday […]

The Paisley Violin

Temporarily closed: Gina and Derrick Suarez’s quirky bohemian bistro is a comfortably cool spot that contains creative endeavors of every shape and size. Situated along Grand Avenue, it’s a mecca of Mediterranean and Euro-style edibles served up in an ultra-arty atmosphere accented by a constantly revolving collection of photos, paintings, and sculptures. Boutique wines such […]

Thankfully, the commitment to quality food remains. Pa’La is a date night destination now, where customers can splurge on a special occasion. The […]

Palatte

Whether it’s light rail, the new ASU developments, or just business as usual, there’s a lot going on in downtown Phoenix. We’re glad to see so much happening, but sometimes we just need a break from it – a few moments of peace and quiet to recharge. Palatte is perfect for that, an oasis of […]

Pallets Food and Bar

Who wouldn’t want a place like Pallets in their neighborhood? Fresh sushi and tasty Chinese dishes like orange chicken made up for sub-par Vietnamese menu items at this hip, pan Asian restaurant/bar on Roosevelt Row. Go for the reasonably priced food, the well-chosen variety, the pleasant wait staff and relatively late hours.

Pane Bianco

Celeb chef Chris Bianco has worked his magic again, this time concentrating on a tiny menu of sandwiches and salads. Fare is takeout only, and it’s expensive, but worth it for farmers-market-fresh quality. Anything with homemade mozzarella is a marvel. Read our review.

Papago Park

Hiking, biking, fishing, picnicking — even golfing — among the otherworldly buttes, crags and palm-shaded water holes of one of the few significant parcels of lowland Sonoran Desert remaining in the urban Valley. West-facing Hole-in-the-Rock, a Hohokam archaeoastronomy site, is famed for its sunset views; Desert Botanical Garden and the Phoenix Zoo are situated within […]
