| - FnB represents everything that is good and right in the restaurant scene currently in Phoenix. Every component that makes a restaurant great is to be had in spades at this little gastro-center.
The Food: Charleen's creative, local-focused, uber fresh cuisine features a short menu that is anything but on flavor. Every single flavor combination featured is spot on. The Jidori chicken is hands down the best I've every had, with spaetzle and wildflowers. The chicken is moist, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with the texture and simplicity of the spaetzle. Every single appetizer and entree wows in its own unique way, the only thing longed for is more options once you've eaten everything on the menu. To me, the menu is the perfect balance of simplicity, creativity, flavor, and little bits of heaven.
The Wine: All Arizona? Yes. Bad thing? Not at all. With characters like Pavle, Josh, and Emily helping you choose wines that you will enjoy, it's hard to go wrong. My advice, take their advice- they know what they're talking about and very likely are going to know what works well with which food items.
The Service: Perfect. Pavle could make anyone feel welcome and comfortable, and the entire staff has more serving experience than most restaurants in the valley combined. Trust them when they recommend things, believe them when say they know.
The Ambiance: This is the only restaurant in the valley that makes me feel at home, and the only place I'll go if I need to feel like I am.
