We stopped here for a late lunch. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere here I’d describe as Southwestern Eclectic Chic. As an appetizer we enjoyed fried plantain chips with cilantro/lime crab dip. It was bright in fragrance and flavor and the plantain was a welcome avenue away from tortilla chips. We both decided on the same entree so, here is one review rather than two. We ordered the Serrano-Shrimp salad. First, this salad is huge. Come hungry, share it or plan on taking some home. At the base is thinly-sliced wheat toast with avocado and piled on top are fat, breaded shrimp, super fresh arugula and spring mixed greens with sliced fennel, topped with a Serrano glaze. This salad is amazing and I recommend it, 10/10.

The fingerlings and sweet potatoes and aiolis were delicious. The burger was cold. I like my hamburgers extremely hot. The flatbread tasted mostly like pesto. Your mouth kind of had to hunt for the other flavors. The enchiladas were pretty basic. Service was ok. Water didn't have ice and was room temp. The sun was blaring in at us as it set. All in all, meh. Not horrible but wouldn't eat there again.

Great service from our bartender (I don’t remember her name) but she allowed me to sample wines when I was unsure of which one I wanted to pick and she gave me a long list of places to try out in phoenix when she found out I had just moved to the area. Also really enjoyed the potato fingerlings with the red pepper aoli (the aoli was SO good)

Nice place, service is really good and the food was amazing! I ordered the Market Sunflower salad. The strawberries and blueberries were so sweet and paired perfectly with the goat cheese, chicken lettuce and vinaigrette. The crunchiness of the sunflower seeds complemented it too. Absolutely delicious!

Delicious and unique menu and pleasant atmosphere made for a terrific lunch. We enjoyed the two vegetarian (by choosing no protein - you can get either with meat as well) power bowls. Both were really a great blend of textures, tastes, and portioning without being overdressed or gloppy. The menu has a nice variety of dishes, a lot of just very fresh and light options but with some heartier choices as well. Service was "good not great" as our drinks sat empty while the servers were just kind of hanging out. Not a big deal, but just slightly disappointed after such good food. Atmosphere is comfy and nice without being cramped, patio has misters and is partially shaded.

Step into an eccentric trendy spot decorated with local flare. Inside and outside seating in a lush garden environment nested in the shopping area of Old Town within minutes of luxury shopping.
