Very surprised by the mixed reviews. I went there for the second time today since the reopening. Wanted to make sure my first time wasn't a fluke. Both times were excellent. I arrived shortly after they opened at 11:00 AM, so there was plenty of staff, maybe that's not always the case, but in my case, there were friendly servers and bartenders everywhere. Everyone smiles and says hello, very friendly and warm and nice.
The lunch menu has a fantastic selection, salads, burgers, chicken sandwich, pizza and fantastic appetizer selections. My colleague and I both had the Cobb salad last time. We were told that most people don't finish it, I can see why, it was enormous, fresh and excellent. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size. Today, I had the Alpine Swiss burger. It is more like an artesian burger, prepared beautifully, excellent toppings, very fresh, well put together. The steak fries were outstanding and they have fantastic ranch dressing!
In my humble opinion, this is one of the best restaurants anywhere near Tempe marketplace, blows the others away by far. I would definitely recommend going for the atmosphere, which is really cool, the service, prices, quality, and friendliness of staff.
