I recently moved back to Arizona from the bay area and have become somewhat of a food snob. Berkeley, Oakland, San Francisco, Piedmont... they all had so many amazing restaurants to offer. Cornish Pasties could be uprooted and planted smack dab in any one of the aforementioned cities (or any other in Northern California for that matter) and they would blow the competition away.
Since moving home, I've eaten and/or had drinks here about a half a dozen times. That's about once a week. They have salads, pasties, and desserts that are to die for! I love the vegetarian cottage pie with whatever that amazeballs sauce on the side is as well as the banana/whip cream dessert (the name is slipping my mind at the moment). The first time I visited Pasties, my friend and I split the pasta salad. It was big enough to share and so delicious!
Do not visit Cornish Pasties if you are in a rush. Remember the phrase, "good things come to those that wait?" You will need to keep it in mind here. They are baking thick ass pastries for cheese and rice's sake. Calm down and wait for one of the best culinary moments of your life.
DO come here if you'd like to receive attentive and fun service! Every time we've come in, we've received some of the most laid back yet knowledgeable service the valley has to offer.
Bottom Line... a must try! Thanks for being so awesome!
