| - Saturday morning we decided to cruise around downtown and find some lunch, me and the wife are not big fans of commercial eateries, but unique, good food isn't always the easiest to find. That's where we rely on yelp, Local Breeze has a solid 4 stars and a lot of solid reviews. It's located in an old house near the "historic" district which is slowly, but surely, gaining some personality.
Once entering we noticed it was huge and had a cool bar with a tropical theme. We were greeted and seated by who must have been the owner, we were sat in a nice quiet corner of the patio. The service was excellent! The guy who sat us noticed that our drink order had not been taken by the server, so he came over and made sure we got our drinks promptly. One thing that gave me a great impression up front was the awesome beer selection, they carry mainly local microbrew products from Grand Canyon Brewing, Four Peaks, Oak Creek, etc. The guy was sad to admit they had Bud Light on tap (he said too many people are still ordering it, which is sad but understandable). Being a near perfect Saturday afternoon, I ordered a Grand Canyon Amber Ale and my wife order the Sangria, which was also damn good, it had many pieces of whole citrus in the glass.
For brunch I ordered the "fire island eggs" and my wife ordered the Local Breeze Burger. The fire island eggs were amazing, and the fries had a really good chile-lime seasoning on them. I finished my wife's burger and have to say that it was a great burger, good quality beef chargrilled to perfection with thick bacon and sharp cheddar. The menu was not huge but very balanced and had personality. The burger was about as tame as it gets, most everything else has a bit more adventure in it.
Overall, an A+ experience, thank you Yelp! We recommend Local Breeze and will definitely be going back for brunch every weekend we can. Apparently their dinner menu changes and has more options. We look forward to going back for dinner sometime soon!
