Welcome to the Valley of the Sun’s future, where phrases like “live-work” and “mixed-use” suddenly-finally!-apply. Completed in 2000, Kierland Commons is the city’s first-ever “lifestyle center,” a 600,000-square-foot Scottsdale development that includes shopping, dining, entertainment, office space and upscale loft condominiums. Originally created to serve as the community gathering place for the master-planned community of […]
When Brannon Kleinlein announced he was reopening his bygone venue Last Exit, we had a few doubts. Not only is the cozy music venue located along a confusing one-way stretch of Central Avenue, it’s also in the heart of a dodgy ‘hood south of downtown Phoenix. After Kleinlein fixed the joint up, improved parking and […]

An exotic and romantic date spot thanks to its lakes, waterfalls and gondola rides, the Hyatt’s further buoyed by the resort’s rotating live music roster. Every night in the lounge you can find one of three acts — Paul McDermand (steel drums and marimba), Mosaico (a flamenco group with dancers) and Nuance (a contemporary classical […]
The Lost Leaf is part beer and wine joint, part arts-scene culture hub. Occupying a historic Fifth Street bungalow mere steps from Roosevelt Row, the walls, rafters, and bathrooms are adorned with works by local creatives. A nook beside the bar and a backyard stage hosts musicians and DJs across every genre. And it’s a […]

The high-key energy is punctuated by dueling piano ballads covering a wide range of classics everyone can sing along to. With lots of seating options, you can bring the whole gang and sip on signature fish bowls or […]

For more than a half-century, this local chain has been serving up sopapillas, enchiladas, and rellenos. Don’t take our word for it–ask President Obama, who stopped here for dinner during a post-election visit to Phoenix. The story goes that the chimichanga was invented here, and we tend to believe it – this signature dish says […]
Located just north of Tempe Town Lake near the southwest corner of Mill Avenue and Washington Street, the Marquee Theatre is an institution in the Valley’s live music scene. With a capacity of roughly 1,000, it’s just big enough that it is required to separate the underagers from the drinkers, which is great for parents […]
Either by design or happenstance, the cluster of bars and clubs making up Scottsdale’s most popular portion of its downtown entertainment district on Saddlebag Trail is centered around Maya. It makes sense, considering that come the weekend, most clubgoers are likely heading to the combination dayclub and nightclub. Aimed squarely at the young-and-beautiful crowd, it’s […]
Dining during the daytime and dancing at night is the raison d’

Suburban industrial parks don’t exactly gifted with an abundance of style. And the West 10th Place Business Park near 52nd Street and University Drive in the heart of Tempe’s workmanlike industrial neighborhoods are not immune to this rule, which is why we’re glad that hipster fashion mavens Cory Martinez and Ben Funke are there to […]
You know you grew up in Phoenix if you attended a memorable rock concert at this deluxe, open-air venue. Even with general admission lawn seating, there was never-nor is there now-a bad seat in the place, because not one of the 4, 200 seats are further than 175 feet from the stage. And what a […]
