The food at Nine 05 was pretty good, but nothing special. It seems to be your typical trendy Asian fusion restaurant. There really isn't a lot to choose from and there are very few vegetarian choices.
The wait staff was friendly, but the service was slow. There was a group of seven of us and they accommodated splitting the bill any way we needed them to, but automatically added in gratuity at 20% which I thought was a bit excessive.
It's not someplace that I'd go out of my way to go to again, but downtown Phoenix has so few choices, making it amongst the more appealing of what is available.
