| - Pozole pozole pozole pozole. Pozole pozole pozole. POZOLE!
I say that as a person who loves to eat vegetarian, but the pozole is messed up it's so good. I'll be honest, I've not explored much beyond the pozole on the menu because economically it's hard to justify. This massive bowl of pozole is such a cost-effective deal, full of broth, pork, veggies and goodness, it seems like a waste of money to spend even the same amount on a sandwich, let alone more. I'm sure they're fine, but you get my point.
The fries are okay. Just okay.
A foodie's tour of Phoenix wouldn't be complete without a bowl of the pozole, and neither would an architect's. The Vig Fillmore is housed in a historic building in downtown Phoenix with a massive patio that actually economizes on its space with room for both seating and play. Speaking of play, there are trivial pursuit cards at all the tables, which can be nice on a busy morning when the service staff is taking a while (This is not a complaint. The place just get's busy because, you know, it's got good food.)
The wine menu here is VERY good, with a selection that rivals some of Phoenix's actual wine bars while also trafficking in better food and lower prices. Their specialty cocktails are also inventive and tasty and the beer selection robust.
tl;dr This place doesn't advertise itself as the place to be, but it really kind of is. It's got a great vibe for hanging out and plenty of reasons to stay a while.
