"Tom's has had a complete makeover but is still the cornerstone for downtown Phoenix. Tom's has the feel of an upscale 'Cheers' - staff is very attentive and friendly, drinks are outstanding, food is first class. Highly recommend dining here."

"I picked this for a dinner with some out-of-town guests at a meeting in downtown Phoenix. It was the closest non-chain OpenTable-compatible restaurant to our hotel. Though I live here, I had never been to the restaurant myself. It was really more of a bar, with one semi-private group area. That worked well for us, but the food was bar food, and the ambiance was that of a bar (what there was of it...on a Tuesday night at 745PM, the place was empty). I was expecting something a little classier."

"Despite its name this is a modern bar with modern ambiance. It is located close to downtown entertainment and sport centers. Menu was limited - basically pub food but what they offered was tasty. Good food and good service."

"We received special happy hour pricing of $2 per item, normally $5 per item. Some were certainly worth $2, but most were not worth $5. Had we paid the full price we would have been extremely disappointed."

"We met friends there for dinner before an event at US Airways Arena. We had selected the restaurant because it was close to the arena. The hostess service was good. They knew we were coming and seated us quickly. The wait services was uninspiring. There were long waits between every contact by our waiter. The menu needed a few more fish and vegetarian choices. Presentation of the food was more like a coffee shop than a restaurant. The flavor of the food was ok but none of us found our choice to be memorable or particularly tastey. Would not go back for dinner."
