Best Diners in Phoenix

"Egg-ceptional eggs," moist and fluffy omelets, original skillets, scramblers, eggs benedict, fruits and grains, pancakes, French toast, and Belgian waffles are just some of the breakfast specialties you'll find at this bright Scottsdale cafe. Despite the name, don't expect a breakfast platter dripping in butter. The food here is prepared fresh with the most wholesome ingredients available."

"Original Breakfast House is the quintessential neighborhood diner with eclectic decor, comfy seating, a whiteboard of daily specials, and a pot of coffee always hot and full on the table. The restaurant attracts a regular crowd, who come to enjoy the menu of traditional breakfast favorites such as French toast, omelets, and biscuits and gravy as well as some unexpected entrees like the linguica and cheddar scramble with spicy Portuguese sausage and the Spam and eggs served with cilantro-lime rice and mango salsa. Other delights include the stacks of buttery pancakes with a touch of lemon and dripping in maple syrup and the deep-fried French toast."

"If you want to eat at Original Breakfast House, you better get there early, because so does the rest of Phoenix!. The crowds come early and huuuungry. OBH is deeply loved in the area because they have out of this world fried chicken and San Francisco-style French Toast (aka fried)."

"The owner of this well-loved breakfast staple retired from a career of owning and running a restaurant chain to realize he missed it. So, he opened up this family restaurant in Phoenix to share his love of food and pancakes with a nifty ’70s motif. View this post on Instagram"

"Touting itself as Roosevelt Row's favorite bistro, Carly's has a list of rotating draft and bottled craft beer, wine, and signature cocktails. But the best cure for that midsummer, right-out-of-the-car feeling is the classic mojito, a mix of rum, mint, muddled lime, simple syrup, and soda water. The mint and lime hit simultaneously, making it entirely refreshing."

"Nestled along Roosevelt Row, Carly’s is an independent bistro that offers salads, sandwiches, beer and wine along with a side of local art. The kitchen is open until midnight during the week and Friday and Saturday until 2 a.m."

"PhoenixFlashback to the 1950s with a greasy spoon vibeThe glow of a throwback neon sign serves as a warm welcome at this Arizona classic. The original of the 5 & Diner restaurants is a tribute to the oldies with no shortage of malts and milkshakes and classic diner eats like signature burgers and chicken fried steaks all available to you and your crew 24/7."

"While the 5 & Diner is now part of a franchise chain with locations around the country, the original opened in Phoenix in 1989. Its motto is "food, fun, fifties" and it plays up the retro angle. It's the place to go if you want a polished, kitschy but entertaining dining experience rather than an authentic throwback."

"This is the real deal when it comes to old fashioned ’50s-style diners!. Completely outfitted in retro style, you’ll be greeted by waiters and waitresses all dressed the part from their A-line skirts to their bow ties. The interior is a time machine where kids can choose songs to play from the table top jukeboxes."

"The epitome of a no-muss, no-fuss classic American diner minus the retro kitsch, 40th Street Cafe plays like a greasy spoon without the grease. The coffee is good, the servers are friendly and the menu is chock full of straight-up, inexpensive breakfast classics like simple omelets, a crisp and meaty chicken fried steak and one of the few Taylor Ham breakfast sandwiches available in town."

"Todays I was in the mood for a burger so of course I had to go to In-N-Out because I absolutely adore their burgers today I tried something new I tried t..."

"Jason’s Deli may not be as fun and exciting as the other best family restaurants in Phoenix, AZ. It doesn’t have a spacious play area and is not jam-packed with toys for the young ones. But, it has something special that other restaurants can’t offer: free, soft-serve ice cream. Make your visit enjoyable by indulging in its appetizing yet healthy culinary goodies, which are made with wholesome ingredients."

"The Henry is an upscale-casual eatery with lovely outdoor patio seating that serves an all-day menu of authentic American fare and an extensive list of libations. The part-European bistro, part-American gastropub sees a business crowd with their laptops and mobile phones gathering on week mornings for healthy bites and freshly brewed coffee, while the weekend boasts a more laidback ambiance with chilled out brunch-goers. Located at the confluence of Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, and uptown Phoenix and boasting breathtaking views of the Camelback Mountains, The Henry offers an ideal spot to enjoy delicious food, great drinks, and a warm and welcoming atmosphere."

"We talk a lot about tacos — different styles, techniques, influences and ingredients. When it comes to La Santisima, it is the innovative approach to showcasing veggies as the headliner on these tortillas that sets them apart. Choose from cauliflower asada, cauliflower al pastor, roasted poblanos, mesquite grilled cactus and mushrooms to complement black and pinto beans, fresh produce and Oaxacan cheese for the ultimate vegetarian, vegan (skip the cheese) or gluten-free (as indicated) feast."

"Inspired by a variety of different Mexican cultures—Spanish, Aztec and Mayan, to name a few—La Santisima takes you on a regional tasting tour of Mexico with (what else?) tacos. Owners Felipe and Cristina Guzman draw from family recipes to create a menu of gourmet offerings that include the Cabo shrimp taco, the Aztec tinga taco, and their specialty, the Mayan cochinita pibil taco, made with roasted pork shoulder wrapped in banana leaves."

"One other family dining inside, aside from that it was extremely vacant. The cashier was extremely friendly and patient, and the food was great!"

"I have never visited this shop before, but it is located in the Scottsdale Pavilions shopping center on the south side. The company is a Native American Indian coffee roasting operation, according to their web site."

"When we trace back the breakneck evolution of the Valley’s regional Chinese scene, the opening of the original Chou’s Kitchen in Chandler sticks out as a watershed moment. Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, sure, but who had even heard of Dongbei, nestled up to Korea in the far northeast reaches of the country?. For many, Sunny Zhao and Lulu Zhou’s dumpling-dispensing destination was the first glimpse into a world of Chinese cuisine that stretched far beyond Americanized versions of midcentury standbys."

"Lulu Zhou and Sunny Zhao’s two Chou’s locations focus on Northeastern Chinese delicacies, but are unafraid to reach to provinces beyond. Noodles, soups, and stews abound. The main events here, though, are savory pies and dumplings."

"A post shared by David Fong (@dfong1) on Jun 26, 2017 at 12:34pm PDT. Its convenient and affordable prices make the restaurant a natural choice for an eat-in or a take-out meal in the Phoenix community. The restaurant offers not just original and authentic but also delicious Chinese dishes."
