It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Postino. I started eating at the Arcadia location 12 years ago, and I've been the duchess of Gilbert pretty much since it opened. Even though Postino is part of my weekly routine, I was still excited to check out Annex before a show at Gammage.
As expected of any Upward Projects restaurant, the interior and exterior are impeccable. I really loved sitting outside with a gorgeous view of A mountain. I also like the vibe of this Postino better than Gilbert. Very few children around. On the East side, you'll see infant carriers and strollers well into the night.
I'm happy to see they brought back a Furmint for the summer. Very delicious if you like sweeter whites, and it was only $24 which is just $4 more than happy hour prices. I had a few bites of my friend's Hannah's field salad which was great.
It was a very short and lovely walk through campus to get to Gammage, so I'm sure I'll be making Postino my preshow dinner choice quite often.
