Best Restaurants for a Quick Bite in Desert Ridge

The best of the three meals we had was the sea bass. It was melt in your mouth and flavor was amazing. The combination of vegetables and herbs was interesting and made the experience. And presentation was also well done. The bolognese pasta was also very flavorful and my friend enjoyed it a great deal. I had the Caesar salad, which was very good. The pesto tortellini left me looking for a different dish. It promised more flavor than it delivered. But the pasta was cooked well and serving generous. I did wish I’d gotten the sea bass or fettuccini. The lemon cake was light like a mousse, teased with the flavor, and excellent. We all loved it. Our server, Marie, was excellent. Attentive without being overly so, and somewhat helpful with the menu. Just wish she’d been more outright about the pesto. It provided a lovely setting for friends celebrating one birthday as well as Christmas. It

My favorite restaurant in Arizona! Absolutely love coming here and never have any bad experiences. Love love love this place!

Chef Ryan exceeded all expectations! The sushi he prepared was not only fresh and beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors and textures. The service was impeccable from start to finish—attentive, friendly, and professional. The ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall experience, creating a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. Chef Ryan’s skill and passion for his craft truly shine through in every dish. Whether you’re a sushi aficionado or trying it for the first time, this is a must-visit destination. Highly recommended, and I can’t wait to return!

Great outside venue with a fire pit table. Great variety of on tap beers, outstanding food. Our table of 7 could not find anything to complain about. Our server was the best!

At first our service was great. We had to ask for the Special Lunch Menu - called Power Lunch for $19.00. There were 11 girls, all of us ordered from this menu. Waiter took our order, food was good but never got any Bacon on our entrees. Waiter never came back to ask us how are food was. Waiter never came back to fill up the water glasses. Waiter apologized about the No Bacon - said they didn't have any. He gave each of us a $10 off card to use next time. I would go back again.
