  “Category: Gastropub. The homey feel of this place reminds me of a cabin in the Adirondacks. Although we would normally have dined on one of the outdoor patios or at the inviting bar just past the open kitchen, we chose a cozy comfy leather banquette over a table, from which we admired the decor: subdued lighting, shaded lamps, sandstone-brick wall, and open black steel truss ceiling with visible HVAC tubes. We were very happy with the wine list, which offered several bottles of red for $50 or less (our sweet spot for restaurant wines), and one was even under $40. The solidly gastropub menu came highly recommended. We started with the deviled eggs, which were presented on branded wooden trays that I now covet for my upcoming Oefs Mayo series. For a main we shared the blackened branzino, which was the best and most beautiful branzino I have seen anywhere. Golden and blackened, crispy, crusted, and large enough to be easily shareable, especially with a side of frites. The frites were wonderfully super crispy. And something happened with the frites that’s never happened before. We always order frites with mayo. In every other restaurant, I emphasize that we want mayo, not ketchup, and that it needs to arrive with the frites so they don’t get cold and flabby while we await the always-late mayo. We’re always assured that the mayo will arrive with the frites, but it never does, except at this restaurant, where it actually arrived BEFORE the frites. I was blown away by this little thing, and it made all the difference between an okay meal and a perfect one. This place is destined to become one of our regular haunts in Phoenix/Scottsdale. Don’t miss the bowl of free sea salt chocolate chip cookies near the door on your way out. YouTube’s Chef’s Apprentice”

  “We had a fantastic breakfast! We showed up right when they opened on a Sunday in July and didn’t have to wait. Lemon ricotta hotcakes were delicious as well as the chilaquiles. I have never had a bad experience at Chelsea’s Kitchen!”

  “The entire experience was fantastic. Complimentary valet is how we started, to walk in and get patio seating on a busy Saturday night with no wait at all. We were greeted by Bella, who was wonderful and attentive throughout the whole time. …”

  “Always love to go here. We usually sit on their lovely patio but with the 112° weather we sat at a booth inside instead. The inside decor is lovely too, I believe it used to be an old ranch house. I had the hatch pepper burger, which was delicious but messy. I really appreciate that I can get a properly cooked medium-rare burger here- every other place I order medium-rare it arrives overcooked, which I really hate. The star of the meal was the key lime pie. It's huge so be sure to share. It comes with a berry Gelato was soooo delicious. With restaurant prices these days you don't want to go out and just get mediocre food, but Chelsea's Kitchen always delivers great food and a fun experience”

  “Had a late lunch here yesterday, and what a lovely time we had! My husband and I haven't been in for awhile, and we were quickly reminded why this is such a great spot - the staff! Kimberly is more than an excellent server. She's totally a ray of sunshine! She gave excellent recommendations, kept our ice tea glasses filled and just totally brightened our day with sweet comments and super friendly demeanor. She's really exceptional! Also, the food. My word, that cornbread appetizer is really something! I had short rib tacos and my husband had a huge burger with a pretty large side of fries. Highly recommend - we'll be back soon! Thanks, Kimberly!”

  “We had the sword fish tacos and it was cooked to perfect and well seasoned. The seaweed was a little lack luster but it worked with avocado and tomatoes. Would like a little more sauce and corn tortillas were soft and warm and not soggy or break apart tortillas. Bonus are the little cookies you grab on the way out.”

  “I rate Chelsea’s Kitchen a total of 4.75/5 stars. Cost 5/5 Fair prices for what you get. No complaints. Flavor 4/5 The crab tostada was a great starter. The cheeseburger and French dip both hit the spot and the Fresa Pepina was a nice touch. Good food, just not quite mind-blowing. Atmosphere 5/5 Relaxed, comfortable and easy to enjoy. Great place to unwind over a meal. Service 5/5 Friendly and attentive without being overbearing. They took good care of us. We recommend.”

  “Shockingly great food. Ahi tuna ceviche was delicious as well as the prime rib and the jumbo shrimp tacos. Not to mention they hand press their tortillas and give out the most satisfying salted chocolate chip cookies on your way out. Exceeded our expectations for sure.”
