| - I don't think words can really express my long-term love for The Herb Box. Back when I lived in Phoenix, I probably visited The Herb Box about 3-4 times a month (and oft resisted going even more frequently).
Ambiance: It's everything you want in a cute lunch place. You can see and be seen, hide away in a corner, or enjoy misters outside. The place has character, the sweets are displayed for you to devour with your eyes, and it's relaxing to be there.
Appetizers: The Roasted Red Pepper Hummus is a MUST HAVE. Served with fresh, home-made pita chips (often still warm) and a wonderful, substantive hummus with a bit of a bite, I can't get enough.
Entree: My die-hard favorite (and what I would eat as my last meal on earth) is the Grilled Chicken and Sage Pesto Sandwich (without the greens). It's beautiful, white meat chicken on ciabatta, with a pesto spread, fresh bacon bits, sliced apple, and goat cheese. Served with a side of fresh and crisp sweet potato chips, the contrast and deliciousness is amazing. Simply unbeatable.
Dessert: They have a chef who specializes and clearly rejoices in making sweets, so they always have something different to choose from. Check out the options while you're there to decide. Some of my favorites have been: Whoopie Pies, Almond Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Espresso Cookies.
Service: The servers are always friendly and helpful. Get to know them and you get even better service. Marlee, who's been my favorite server for the last 3 years, is out of this world and super friendly. The owner is also often there and is very sweet.
The Market: I used to get take out from The Herb Box all the time and let me tell you: it's just as delicious at home or at the office. Anyway, you pick it up on The Market side of the establishment, where you can also find tons of other ready-made tasties to go. They sell their super fresh, beautifully dusted sweet potato chips there in larger bags. It's definitely worth stopping by.
Catering: The Herb Box actually stared as a catering company and I've had them cater several parties. Their staff is ultra-friendly and accommodating and will remember you afterwards when you stop in the restaurant too. They put out a beautiful spread of sandwiches, wraps, cheese spreads, and whatever else you ask for!
This place is a must visit if you live in Arizona or visit Phoenix or Scottsdale. Do whatever it takes to get yourself there and become as obsessed as I am.
