I so miss living in that neighborhood. One of the best food neighborhoods in the valley when Shamy was still firing on all cylinders.

She's going to open her own place sometime in 2026.

I like the patio at Chelsea's Kitchen, personally. https://chelseaskitchenaz.com/

The food is kind of meh, but I still enjoy eating a snack and having pre-dinner drinks at El Chorro Lodge. https://elchorro.com/

The bar at Elements is wonderful to sit at. https://www.gurneysresorts.com/scottsdale ...

Yes. When i saw the sale, I was unsurprised but saddened, until i saw the Mastros bought it.

Hobe Meats carries it. They're in the Arcadia area- 6044 N. 16th St.

I Like The Lola, general American, and Bodega ( Cuban). There's also a State 48 Brewery with food, and Bar Louie, a chain with decent food. If you want Mexican, Salt Tacos is supposed to be good, and there's also Sugar Factory.

Torchy's Tacos has a couple of locations. Julio G's used to be really good, but I have not been since they relocated to North Phoenix. Also maybe try Richardson's. There have never been a lot of great choices, honestly.

former Mesaite here. I liked George's Gyros in mesa, Med Fresh grill and haji Baba in Tempe, along with Flaming Kabob in Mesa.

It's too bad about Binkley's closing, but I'm really excited for The Larder and the Delta to come back.

Thanks for this. I have been meaning to get here and you've just given me a shove. I live in Estrella, but that looks worth the travel.
