| - Not gonna lie - didn't hear good things about "the new Vig" and I think I know why... keep reading haters.
The Vig Uptown opened in the early spring and if you're from here, The Vig is synonymous with a great patio space. So, the feedback I was hearing was that "the new Vig is indoors" yuck. We want a patio.
Well, my friends. Welcome 112 degree days. I think the Vig Uptown is genius for Phoenix. The space absolutely feels very indoor/outdoor still allowing the nice breeze to come through, bocce ball for the boys and a very, open airy place for the daytime - BUT, you can close the windows once the heat wave hits and still enjoy yourself in an open, airy place. Mark my words, when the temperatures heat up and The Vig Arcadia is empty - the Vig Uptown won't be. And it will be filled with those haters looking to "feel like they're outside - but aren't." I promise you.
On top of the cool space, the menu is yummy and the drink specials on the weekends are great. You get 1/2 bottles of wine and the Vig Pinot Gris is delicious and at that prices.. its $12. Yum.
Note - the brunch menu is very limited compared to the full lunch menu, so if you go around 2pm, it's probably in your best interest to wait until the full lunch menu is available. We saw nachos come out about 15 minutes after we ordered and were super bummed nobody told us to wait.
Overall - perfect place to escape the "inside" this summer.
