The Acapulco Cheesesteak
There is a reason why this is the most popular item on the menu. It's amazing and you won't regret it... except for the fact that it will be hard to try anything else next time.
BLT
It's the best sandwich. Slightly spicy. Good hefty bacon, and the mayo actually adds a lot. Simple and perfect.
Artichoke Heaven
This was a gem of a find!! Everything from the Artichoke dip, meat and cheese board, mac n cheese and sandwich's were excellent. Yes, we ate a lot!!! Unique place with a lot of character. Excellent service too. A must go to for a date night.
Salty Hog
This drink is dangerous. I found myself on the patio at TMI, and ordered one: grey hound with bacon garnish? Yes please! I made friends with a dog at the next table, then ordered another and made friends with yet another dog... Then had to eat food... Delicious, refreshing, and guaranteed to help you make friends with other peoples' dogs (even if you don't share your bacon)!
Artichoke Heaven
Love this place! That artichoke dip is AMAZING!
The North Beach
So tasty! The pesto is incredible
Veggie Quesadilla
I'm a big fan of Quesadillas and this one is done right! I've had it with and without shrimp, both ways are great! It paired well with the Car Camper Hazy Pale Ale!
The Veg
The scrumptious harmony of flavors mingled with the intentional blend of bold ingredients create an unforgettable sandwich experience. Many restaurants don't give the priority of flavor to the vegetarian option, resulting in a lackluster combination of leftover ingredients from the main specialty dishes. However, in my experience this sandwich has set the new caliber of expectation for quality, not only for a vegetarian sandwich but sandwich fare as a whole! My compliments to the creative mind that artfully designed this dish.
TMI Cuban Torta
Cuban Torta is the best!
The Sheridan
this is a long time favorite. I order the Sheridan when I am really hungry for a hearty turkey sandwich with a bit of spicy flavor from the salami and the mustard. the field greens (make me feel less guilty about the salami) and provide a nice contrast. the bread is always yummy too !
Duke Margarita
It has a very classic taste of a margarita with just a slight hint of the strawberry, just enough to taste. The mescal is still prominent but not so much that it makes the drink too strong. Nice blend.
TMI Tacos
The shrimp tacos are devine! They are always fresh and deliciously delightful! I give them 👍👍and also ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! Try them, you wont be disappointed! Staff and outdoor seating are great!
Coronado Caprese
Delicious! Love this place for the drinks and food. It was hard to pick a favorite since I have been here many times and everything I have ordered (food and drinks) have been great. Also LOVE they are super pet friendly, this is the place I always go with all my friends that are pet lovers.
Green Chile Stew
We drive 22 miles for this green chili stew, and have never been disappointed! I love it with the corn tortillas! It's always delicious...
Artichoke Heaven
Delicious, like everything here, it's just much better than I had in other places
BLT
Best BLT ever! I dream about this sandwich. The bread, chipotle mayo, and crispy bacon is so I'm point it's hard for me to order anything else. Pairs great with a seasonal cocktail and their greens with the best homemade vinaigrette.
Chips & Salsa
Their chips and salsa are honestly the best in Phoenix (which is a bold statement I fully stand by). The perfect flavor, spice and consistency. The ambiance and drinks are also great.
Courtney's Cobb
This is a perfect cobb. Filling, always, fresh, and probably the tastiest and best-priced lunchtime salad in central Phoenix. Give it a try, you most definitely wont regret it.
Artichoke Heaven
Yummy
Grilled Cheese
We've eaten here more than two dozen times in the past year. Our favorites are the beet salad, mac & cheese and the stew. Period delicious every time !
San Tan- Oktoberfest - German Style Lager - (5.5%) Chandler, AZ
Light beer with a hint of raspberry. Refreshing beer on a summer day.
Veggie Wrap
Love all the flavors of this wrap! The black bean hummus paired with the sprouts is a home run. Not to mention the wrap they use is always fresh and soft.
Tuna Salad
Best tuna melt ever. I food is always delicious and the staff always gives the best service , atmosphere is always great. The music and the beer and other beverages are also great. I love this place.
TMI Cuban Torta
Love the torta. Top 3 of the sandwiches available here.
The North Beach
I am not a sandwich person. I do not like having sandwiches for dinner... BUT I ALWAYS FIND MYSELF CRAVING THIS DELICIOUS SAMMIE! So fresh and full of flavor! If you haven't tried this one yet, you totally should!
The Ruby
Awesome drink!!! Refreshing on a hot day!!! Come out and support this kick ass business!!!!
The Soup
The Tomato Soup is AMAZING! Such a full flavor you can taste the medley of tomatoes used in this soup. Even on a hot Phoenix day I would still order the Tomato Soup and very much enjoy it. It's like tasting the Italian countryside with the plethora of flavor and the freshness of ingredients used. Pairs well with a Wheat beer!
BLT

The Acapulco Cheesesteak

San Tan- Oktoberfest - German Style Lager - (5.5%) Chandler, AZ
great place. Come and enjoy a beer
Courtney's Cobb
By far my favorite salad ever! It's good with balsamic vinaigrette as well!
BLT
Best BLT I've ever eaten. Absolutely delicious. The Cobb salad's amazing too!!
The North Beach
By far my favorite sandwich not only here but anywhere. The ingredients are fresh and it is just the perfect mix. Also, it is a very good portion. The bread is crunchy but soft at the same time.
Green Chile Stew
Ordered the green chili stew when I was here last, and man, it was so good! Definitely coming back here to try a few other dishes that caught my eye. Nice pet friendly patio area too.
The Jive Turkey
Ivana's Birthday Lunch Celebration !! The Jive Turkey with field greens and ranch on the side is the favorite order noted as a Great food and healthy smart as a bonus. We called it in and took a liesurely ride in Stinky (the Golf Cart) to pick it up. #SociallyDistant not Deprived
The Acapulco Cheesesteak
I dream about the Alcapulco cheese steak. It's so good. My husband has gotten all sorts of other menu items (and has always been thrilled) but I can't waver. I just want the cheese steak every time.
Coronado Club
The main ingredient is a hidden gem! Amazing menu! Fabulous staff! Highly recommended!
Alias Chardonnay - California Appellation
Loved the wine and atmosphere. The service and staff were great and very friendly. Definitely a place I will visit over and over.
The Sheridan
This mouth-watering sandwich is toasted to perfection and made with a selection of fine meats that deliciously compliment the house made mustard. Pair it with crispy chips on your cheat day or dress it up with fresh greens when you're being "good".
