Excellent place to relax and have a beer if you are craving a sandwich, salad, or appetizer for a relatively low price. Each category they seem to excel in when I measure dining in.
Not many places are actually nice to sit in when you start to weigh in things the way I do. I don't want to wait in a line or sit outside waiting for my name to be called or reserve way ahead of time. I don't like it when places look like subway inside if I am on a date no matter how good the food. I haven't been to Pizzeria Bianco for example for one of the reasons mentioned. But the rare gems of places with good food and a date atmosphere that isn't so trendy that I will be wasting an hour sitting are where I want to go with my girl for dinner. This is close to home so I pop by when I get the chance whenever possible. This is the food/service I have had and how I would rate it.
Service: 5/5 I don't recall ever waiting for a check or a drink for too long and even when the occasional mix up happens they remedy it promptly
Pricing: I would really expect to pay more for food this good.
Ambiance: 5/5 I love dining out here, they softly play old school hip-hip and trip-hop is present but you wouldn't here it unless you are trying. The city of phoenix art work on one of the walls is terrible but the rest of the decor is nice.
Food:
Winner Salad w/ balsamic(homemade): 5/5 It is the best salad I have had. I cant stand the lemon vinaigrette version of this salad though( I dont like lemon on much though). I stumbled onto the balsamic due to a side salad having it once now I special order it this way all the time as it is the best damned salad ever.
rb&c: 4/5 This is a solid sandwich that I order every now and then, in the end it is just a sandwich though.
vegetarian chilli- 1/5 stay away unless bland is your desire, it is quite terrible.
Cheese plate - 5/5 I usually don't go for appetizers in the modern cuisine era as most of it is sub par but this goes in the hall of fame of appetizers.
Artichoke dip- 4/5 pretty good stuff also
olives: 3/5 Lolas Tapas had some 5/5 ones but are now closed.:(
Drinks:
I love little bottles of ginger-ale and the hefeweizen
Desert:
Chili cheesecake: 5/5 I am not a fan of cheesecake this with the balsamic whatever is amazing stuff. Highly recommended.
