One man. One grill. One of our most fun places to eat, period. Bacanora has fast become one of Phoenix’s signature Mexican restaurants thanks to the skills of Rene Andrade who has cooked in well-regarded fine dining restaurants throughout the Valley. Bacanora is his sizzling, mesquite-touched, chiltepin-dusted return to the food of his home region, […]

Showing 375 - 396 of 4777Word of mouth is the key to success at this charming Tempe strip-mall cafe, and no wonder. The plain bagel here is a joy to eat on its own, almost like a fresh soft pretzel. While you’ll surely find ex-New Yorkers lurking in line here, Back East Bagels brings in plenty of native Arizonans, too, […]
The tacos at Backyard are garnished in the traditional way, with just a scattering of very finely minced cabbage and onion. A salsa bar awaits with customary avocado sauce, red salsa, and a vibrant pico de gallo. The Mesa location, which has been open since 2013, still feels very quaint, despite the shop’s very modern […]
Part casual burger shop, part cocktail bar and all hipster hangout, Bad Jimmy’s has left its glowing red neon mark on downtown Phoenix. What started as a pop-up that served smash burgers is now a brick-and-mortar destination. In the former home of The Breadfruit and Rum Bar on Pierce Street, the team serves a tight […]

As far as non-perishables go, there’s a wide array of compact discs by Middle Eastern musical acts and an impressive selection of hookah pipes and […]
Baker’s has been serving the Phoenix and surrounding areas for over 40 years with a wide variety of plants, pottery, statuary, great service, and an excellent location for relaxing and enjoying nature!
The Bakery PHX is not a trendy cupcake shop, though the bright, simple interior and handwritten signage are modern and stylish. It’s also not a traditional spot, as it serves both freshly baked sourdough bread loaves as well as the shop’s take on the Twinkie, which actually looks more like a Ho Ho on the […]
Mornings, in-the-know customers trickle into Balkan Bakery, inhaling the bready fragrance of its tiny room on Bell Road. Some get French-style rolls. Some get rope-like kifli. Some get dark twists of pretzels still hot from the oven. All seem to have an unspoken respect for Jasenko Osmic, the man behind that oven, who bakes, peals, […]
Far from the leather bars, rainbow-flagged saunas and diva-filled discotheques found elsewhere, Bar 1 is casual gay nightlife that still knows how to have fun. Established in 2008, its easygoing, candlelit atmosphere allows patrons to talk in their (gasp!) indoor voices whether relaxing in the lounge seating, playing pinball or unwinding on the outdoor patio.
