Renowned Zinc Bistro Chef Matt Carter is now cooking up modern Latin cuisine blending influences from Spain, Mexico, Central America and South America. Home made Tortillas, Sauces and Salsas are made fresh daily and all meats are prepared on a Plancha or a grill using pecan and mesquite wood that instills a rich flavor. Plus--the venue is so unique! My nephew, who is a chef in Chicago, requires a visit here when he's in town!

Known as the “veggie whisperer,” chef Charleen Badman delivers on the promise by highlighting some of the freshest produce from Arizona’s many growing seasons. The patio is intimate and wonderful, and, a plus for me- Inspired and led by the efforts of Chef Charleen, the Blue Watermelon Project is a grassroots group of chefs, restaurateurs, farmers, and community food advocates that believe in good food, equal and fair access to it, and that a systemic food systems change starts from the ground up. Great food and great heart!

A great place to stop if you're walking by-just down the street from the Valley Ho at 4222 N. Marshall Way. Really interesting concept--Co-working office space, coffee house, and bar. It caters to professionals, entrepreneurs and businesses that want a private, club-like setting for meetings, recruiting, coffee, drinking or schmoozing. And the patio is charming!

Bar none, the best patio for a cocktail in the area! Right on the Waterfront, easily walkable (about 15 minutes straight up the canal path), and a great people watching place. I've had dinner here a few times, but cocktails and appetizers are my favorite way to go here.
