People just have to let me know. They go to a restaurant in the greater Phoenix area, and they either loved it or hated it--there's not much in between! I created these pages so that you, the visitors to About.com Phoenix, could have your say. As for the rating, one star is the worst, five stars is the best.
Now, a word of warning--every once in a while I'll get a review from someone who has a specific agenda in mind. A really bad review might be from a disgruntled employee. A really good review might be from the owner or manager. Unless I specifically mention that I have edited a review for some reason, you see the comments posted here exactly as I received them.

sibling to Matt's Big Breakfast (same owner). In old house. Micro brewery and snacks. the "chips and dips" appetizer comes w/ 2 dips, sweet onion and bleu cheese. dining/drinking partner requested order to come w/ 2 onions and no bleu. was flatly and i must say unaccommodatingly denied. OWNER even flatly refused to make a substitution! then it turned out that a new batch was just being made and it took over 15 minutes to deliver! needless to say, no tip that night and no return visits on my horizon. the cyncial side of me thinks that maybe our party wasn't "hip" (or whatever the trendy lingo is these days) enough and the owner didn't mind if we were offended.
