Tutti Santi by Nina PHOENIX, REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
I went to this Italian place called Tutti Santi on 16th St in Phoenix the other day and because it was so good and they were so nice and supportive of the Suns, I wanted to give them a plug. Go in and tell them, "Channing Frye sent me," and they'll give you a free appetizer with the purchase of an entree. Only at the 16th St location.

Montelucia Resort – Prado PHOENIX, REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
People, where have I been? My buddy is the GM at Prado and he recommended his restaurant. I was busy, busy, busy with the season and definitely should've made time to go there. I was missing out for real. This food is flat out off the chain, can I be honest? The best ingredients, it's tough to find some specific fresh ingredients around AZ but this place definitely has my tongue doing backflips in joy. Flat out good. When I talk about ambiance, I don't Iike places where I feel like if I get up I have to get a ...

St. Francis REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
People, people, people, Have y'all no sense of awesome places or have I been out of the loop because I've been so extremely focused on basketball and the pregnancy of my first born that I haven't given St. Francis, the restaurant on Camelback in Phoenix, its just due. What more can I say about the place but genius. From the food, menu, and layout, I have nothing to say negative about this place. I would go vegetarian due to their black rice n vegetable bowl and, people, I love a good steak -- it's that good. The service is always accommodating ...

Petunia’s NEWS, REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
The first time Grant and I came to Portland, I wanted to show him something new so I took him to the vegan place, Prasad, that used to be Blossoming Lotus in the Pearl. He and I loved it. The food is still good and great for you except Grant had a spicy apple muffin that was killer but they ran out. Now that we’re back again, Lisa from Petunia’s Pies and Pastries made me and Grant a whole assortment of gluten free and vegan pastries and pies that are to die for and good for you. I was just ...

Chino Bandido PHOENIX, REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
Look people, when I tell you what kinda food this is, you're not gonna believe me that it’s the food equivalent of an Arnold Palmer. We all know how good those two things are together. To give you a little background of why we even went there was because we watch this show, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and my wife LOVES the off the beaten path type places to eat. She saw it, looked it up, and was like, we have to try it out. Now, I know by this time you're at the edge of your seat in ...

More than sushi at Saporro REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
I know that this is deep for my East Valley people, but I'd say this happy hour is not only one of the best for sushi and good eats but if you love watching people come from work and get just hammered for cheap, this is your place. I love this place. My favorite dish is the seared yellow-tail with a jalapeno on top. So good... I can't get enough. The service here is money; they are always nice to me and the people I go with. Two things that I think keep me coming back is one, that cougars ...

Sushi Review: Blue Wasabi REVIEWS | Restaurants, Suns News | (0)
Man, sushi in Phoenix? Who'd-a thunk it. But so far my two favorite places have not failed to help quench my thirst for good sushi. Coming in at a strong second right now is the Blue Wasabi (Saporro is my first and I'll have another blog on that amazing place). I love this place; great service - everyone was nice. Amazing how the prices rack up. Lucky for us on Mondays there's no Happy Hour so you can bring in your receipt to get half off on the next Monday. Great idea to get us back in but it's ...
