Quick info
About Hanny's
Hanny's is an American restaurant and bar in Phoenix, set inside a former department store at 40 N 1st St, where dining and nightlife share the same room. A DJ booth anchors the evening format, so the space moves from dinner service into a bar-driven later scene without changing address. The menu keeps its focus on approachable American mains, led by the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza, which sits as the signature order and pairs with the bar program's Classic Martini. Dessert comes through the Tiramisu, rounding out the menu after the savory courses. Reservations are advised for prime-time tables, since the combination of food service and music draws a crowd that fills the room on a regular schedule.

Customer Review Summary
Hanny's draws diners into a strikingly repurposed former department store, where the quirky interior, from the basement dolls to the neon bathrooms and elevator shaft art, becomes as much a draw as the food. The margarita pizza with hot honey and the airline chicken are singled out as standouts, alongside strong, well-presented cocktails and a praised tiramisu. Reviewers consistently describe the atmosphere as moody and unique, with many noting the staff's attentive, energetic service. A recurring complaint centers on menu items being unavailable due to kitchen issues, with one diner reporting a steak sandwich arrived without its usual bacon and egg and a refusal to adjust the price, leaving a sense that customer service can falter when problems arise.

“It's gotta be said, this place is magnificent. I'll start with the general atmosphere, I've never seen a place blend casual with formal so well. Walking in I thought I might be underdressed ( I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt) but I soon found that the vibe was lending to either fancy or casual. The various art installations in the restaurant are unique and like nothing I've ever seen. I'm not giving any spoilers because it's a must see! Time to get to the most important part, the food. I ordered the airline chicken and the meatballs both were so delicious that the only word that can possibly describe them is PHENOMENAL! Our server was Bri, she was excellent, super attentive and offered fantastic recommendations. If you ever find yourself in downtown Phoenix, Hanny's is a must.”

“Lauren Treated us exceptional tonight. It was my first weekend here in Phoenix and she made me feel like I was a regular. The food was outstanding. Really recommend a margarita pizza with hot honey.”

“We have loved hanny’s for years. It’s a go to spot for when I go out with both my husband and my girlfriends. Amazing food, drinks, atmosphere. We were there recently to sadly find out that our absolute favorite menu item was taken off- the Bianco pizza. PLEASE bring it back!”

“Hannys is my favorite restaurant in DT PHX. I frequent there for some of the food and of course martinis. I went in this week on Monday and the restaurant wasn't too crowded. Great vibes as usual. I regularly order the airline chicken. Many times have I had leftovers due to the great portion. This week the plate was completely lacking. Seemed as if they ran out of ingredients. Looking back at other pictures of it in other reviews its definitely not in my head. Of course it still tasted great, but very little potatoes, carrots, mushrooms and sauce. Bummed to say the least I hope it was a fluke and next time will be better. The price is not worth it if the presentation is like this moving forward :(”
