North Scottsdale’s most welcoming hotspot is Chauncey Social, set on Scottsdale Road just south of the Loop 101. Not only will there be craft cocktails and upscale American fare from Chef Joe Absolor, but also an indoor/outdoor layout and, apparently, a 10-foot-by-50-feet LED wall.
Nowhere but here will you find a pakalolo toasted sub(smoked ham, Swiss cheese, and Hawaiian pineapple), but even the old standards served at this comfortable lunch spot are tweaked attractively. Like the Panama Red, a new take on Chicken Marinara smothered in home-made red sauce and topped with Parmesan and Provolone. Even their pizza subs […]
If you haven’t been to this cute little neighborhood eatery on Camelback and Central, there’s a good chance your parents or your grandparents have — the delicatessen’s been a Valley staple since 1949, and in 2011, owner Stan Zawatski sold its one millionth sandwich. Belly up to the meat and cheese counter and select from […]
Although this Arcadia spot wows in terms of decor, with a vintage aesthetic that relies on marbled bar tops, glass apothecary jars, and other antique chic touches, the breakfast and lunch restaurant has some improving to do. Sandwiches like the bacon-covered Billy Club and the Lobster Roll are served on MJ Bread, but the sammies’ […]
We started going for the pinball and video games and ended up returning for the old fashioned milkshakes and the Vienna hot dogs on big, fluffy steamed buns. Chicago Hamburger Co. is home of the Original Windy City Slider, and also offers one of the tastiest triple-cheese subs in town. A real neighborhood restaurant, Chicago […]

From the owners of The Grind, the upscale burger joint next door in this Arcadia strip mall, comes this attractive, comfortable bistro specializing in rotisserie chicken. And the chicken, available as a whole, half, or quarter bird, is excellent, with juicy and fresh-tasting white meat and wonderfully crispy skin. Also available is a small selection […]
Hot dogs with the works, grilled cheese and tuna melt sandwiches, hand-dipped malted milkshakes — retro Americana tastes pretty darn good at this cheerful little diner. Chloe’s Corner is the perfect place to refuel on comfort food amid a Kierland Commons shopping spree.
Fresh off the plane from Gotham, just started your long-distance subscription to the New York Times, and in desperate need of a bialy with a schmear? Perhaps you’re peckish for a knish or a toasted bagel with a side of chopped liver? Chompie’s has got you covered, pallie, like the isle of Manny-hanny with concrete. […]

The Chuckbox isn’t flashy. It’s not high-tech or cutting-edge. Heck, it still requires cash. But all of the things it’s not are why we love this Tempe institution. Housed inside a rustic cabin, it’s a stark contrast to the Miami-style high-rises that tower above it. The menu is tight, focusing on large mesquite-broiled burgers that […]

This casual neighborhood barbecue joint in Central Phoenix from the owner of Copper Star Coffee features hickory-smoked, slow-cooked pork, beef brisket, and chicken cooked with signature rubs and sauces that can be had in burgers, sandwiches, salads, and as full meals along with starters and sides of American favorites, or before a few homemade desserts.

With a name that says it all, this upscale casual eatery in North Scottsdale features a sizeable menu of American eats and plenty of brews, but hit-and-miss dishes mean the cold beer can complement or simply wash down a mediocre meal.
