★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Easily a 10 out of 10.I found every aspect of dining here thoroughly enjoyable and can't wait to come back.The staff was super friendly and the ambience is very cozy.We grabbed drinks at the bar once before but this was the first time getting food and it was all fantastic.Started with a few appetizers. The calamari had this great Calabria chili dipping sauce I could've drank and the bone marrow came with a chimichurri I was dipping bread in to make sure no went to waste.The gnocchi bolognese was the main course and it comes family style. Very delicious.Moved on to dessert and was pleasantly surprised by the dessert cocktail options. We tried the Mint Condition and I can't remember the other one but it was limoncello and pistachio liquor and I loved it.The ricotta cake was so good I didn't want to share. 😀
October 09 · Jacob BlochThe food is a 4/5 and the atmosphere is a 5/5 for a small space.The bread appetizer comes with lots of slices and a hearty portion of butter to choose from. Being 100% honest my wife and I were not massive fans of any of the butters. Having a plain whipped butter would have been nice. The tomato butter was too overpowering and the tomato flavor was too pronounced, the truffle butter leaned a little too heavy on the truffle front leading to an awkward flavor balance, and the lemon butter was my personal favorite but it could possibly be better with a stronger lemon flavor.The Brutus salad was a very large portion for a very fair price. The cheese chunks were a little too large and would be better if smaller or more chopper up. My wife wanted to replace the mustard vinaigrette with the apple vinaigrette and I actually think it paired better with the apples (we tried a side of the mustard vinaigrette).The steak and fries were a solid portion for the price. I ordered the steak medium rare but the steak came out closer to well done or medium-welldone. Hopefully it was just a slight error. I think the fries were a very unique shape (very square and large) but we're a little over salted.All in all I would consider going back. My wife and I both don't drink so we only care for food. I want to give extensive feedback in hopes it helps the bar.
August 05 · Joshua VannoyResults may vary. My friend and I had a very mixed experience here, but other tables near us seemed to have a fine time. Somehow they managed to burn every single piece of toast. They were nice enough to take it off the bill, but it still felt weird that they bothered to bring it to the table at all. The flatbread was underproved and undercooked and burnt all at once. While the pesto pasta was heavy on the garlic. So if you're going to fight vampires in the evening highly recommend. Can say that the blood orange spritz was good.
August 22 · Chelsea BauerSecond visit, and again, extremely satisfied. This time for Sunday brunch. Arrived a bit early as they were finishing setting up the outdoor seating. We always enjoy outdoors as first choice, but not mid-July in Phoenix, so indoor it was and as you can see in the pictures, it has been beautifully put together. Service was attentive, professional, comfortable and fun. With only one other group there, it was quiet and peaceful. The Prosciutto Eggs Benedict was amazing. I’m not a mimosa kind of guy, and 10am on a Sunday morning isn’t my timing for alcohol, but looking forward to a Tuesday/Wednesday wine and pasta special at the bar next time. Now as much as I selfishly like that, this place needs to get busy! The food, the atmosphere, the service ……let’s get the word out!
July 19 · Jeff AshtonAs a frequenter of Freely, I was ecstatic to see this new venture. The vibe is just right and the food is AMAZING. While the menu is still being added to, so a bit limited, everything was delicious. From the noble bread with assorted butter choices, to the beautiful drinks, this is going to be another big win for the owners. We had Nonna's Lasagna and ravioli. Both dishes we perfectly flavored, the baked edges of the lasagna may be my favorite. Don't forget to try the specialty crafted cocktails too! Very excited for another local place to visit in the neighborhood and will be back for sure.
