| - After several years of a hiatus to Yelp, this is my first review. About a month and a half ago, looking for a new place, I suggested going to Postino Central. While Id been there before, my boyfriend had not. It had been about two years since I'd been to Postino Central and it wasn't because of any negative experience that I didn't return. We headed up and parked our car in the packed parking lot and then noticed that there were two awesome bike racks that we'd have to use if we chose to come back. It was just after brunch... about 1:15 or so (they serve until 1:00pm... last call brunch is at 12:45.) We got a spot at the bar outside. It was an uncharacteristic warm Saturday... so you know how it is in Phoenix at times like this... simply beautiful. We got a pitcher of beer for FIVE BUCKS! Good beer at that. What a steal! We both also got a nice sandwich. I tried something that's very uncharacteristic for me... the Prosciutto with Brie and my boyfriend got the Autostrada. The one thing I didn't like was how crunchy my focaccia was at first... but then noticed how easily it was to bite in after I tried it. (I'd just had a root canal a few days prior and was being careful.) I loved the sweetness of the fig jam and the softness of the brie... I'm not a huge fan of arugula, but this wasn't bad at all, it worked. I tasted the Autostrada which was filled with all kindsa MEAT. I love a sandwich with meat... and this one, it had a good amount of yummy Italian meats. I'd gotten fries with this that were pretty tasty too. I ended up leaving half of my sandwich which would go to the mouth of my boyfriend for lunch the very next day.
So... we've returned two more times since. Once to bring a few friends who'd just helped us move into our new place (better than pizza and beer). We came up by light rail this time, but again missed the brunch, which is one of my favorites. But did see the Mayor and his kids enjoying the beautiful day.
The next time we went up, it was just the two of us and we rode up on bike. WE JUST MADE BRUNCH! Outside bar, last call brunch, two pitchers of delicious $5 beer and music on a very packed patio. I had the grilled focaccia and he had the scramble. BOTH were delicious, but honestly I loved the flavor of my herbed butter. The butter did it for me.
So yup, we'll be back. I know this place gets over-reviewed, but hey, what's another one. If I could give it 4.5 stars I would. I don't like waiting to get into places or to get a seat.
