Me and the wife tend to get around the valley despite our westside digs, one of these places was the kokopelli winery/bistro in chandler, I wouldn't call us connoseurs but we have an appreciation for wine and aren't afraid to invest in a few bottles when we find a nice wine shop. Kokopelli has been one of these consistent wines, we tend to lean towards sweet whites and find they offer some derivation of almost all or our favorite varietals (reisling, muscat, sauvignon etc) The food has always been consistently good and we were thrilled when we heard we were getting a Kokopelli in surprise, after visiting the surprise location, we were pleased to find that the same consistency and quality carries over from the chandler location, at my last visit I ordered the fish and chips, which were severals strips of tilapia wiht crunchy tasty panko breading. the atmosphere is casual especially with the sun city crowd, they usually have live music a few nights a week.
We'll definitely be visiting this place more often now that they're in our neighborhood
