Great neighborhood joint. Friendly, good food. Just what we need in Ahwatukee. Jury was out for a while after new ownership but they have made the switch without changing much, except for the better. Lefty has a firm grasp on what tastes good and what people like. Try the happy hour bacon cheeseburger for 5 bucks. Its bigger and juicier than it deserves to be at that price. For another 5 you can add enough handcut fries to feed the table. Bruschetta's good. Salads good. Caprese is now whole instead of chopped, thank goodness. We love the pappardelle & ragu.
Lefty just reconstructed the pizza from a lavish to soft flatbread. More fattening but truly tasty. And his NY cheesecake rivals the best we've had in the big apple.
In the bar Erik and Frank shake up a mean martini (try the Square One cucumber gimlet) and happy hour prices are worth the drive. Good ambiance, eclectic crowd and live music make it a fun night out for anyone. I just hope it sticks around longer than past eateries in this location. Keep up the good work guys!
