My fav places I've tried
Delicious, so so delicious. Got the Filet mignon with lobster tail and asparagus
Seasons 52
10/5!!! AMAZING! I always order the avocado toast. The staff are super friendly and I can sit there and work on my homework. I run into a lot of other people in my major there haha. It's really nice. Definitely go. I love their iced chai as well.
Fillmore Coffee Co.
5/5! Medium MangoBerry shaved ice! This is so delicious especially in the summer. You can get a large for only $1 more, it can feed 3-5 ppl. It's so good, definitely try it if you have a sweet tooth like me. I like their drinks too but their shaved i...
Meet Fresh
10/5! They sell everything I like. Makeup, skincare, food, toys. I like to buy konjac jelly, buldak sauce, special pocky flavors here. I also like to buy my shampoo and skincare here. The claw machines actually work! I can usually get a prize within ...
Teso Life - Yelp
5/5 really good! I got the mango roll and it was delicious. I also got a Philly roll and the cheesecake which was kinda mid but they looked good too. The people sitting next to me ordered something and it was on fire but like fancy blue flames not th...
Harumi Sushi
5/5 delicious, this place is always busy. They have really good pho, definitely in my top three. I go here the most often because it's right by the Teso and my sister and I are Teso fiends. I also like un pho gettable and pho dalat is my all time fav...
A Ma's | Authentic Vietnamese Pho
4/5 The matcha is really good. I love how their matcha tastes. We ordered the matcha strawberry float. It was delicious but the cup was mostly ice. Next time I will definitely say easy ice because I took like 5 sips and 2 bites and it was gone and on...
Premium Matcha Cafe Maiko
5/5 SOOO CUTEEE! They do custom designs for cotton candy. You can book them for birthday parties too! Great for kids

Solid places that I would go back to
4/5 yummy! Ordered this at an event I went to. I learned about Nowruz, Persian New Year! It was my first time trying falafel, I thought it was really good. I wish the rice had a bit more flavor though. I also learned how to correctly pronounce gyro. ...
Hummus Xpress
4.5/5 Better than the ones at Flip, but not as good as Everbowl in Tempe. The best acai bowls I've found near campus so far. I love that you can customize your orders. Really nice alternative to all the fast food around campus.
Rush Bowls
4/5 So good! SEARED BEEF WITH YAKINIKU SAUCE >>> I go here mainly for the fun experience/ambiance. The food is good, but not good enough to justify the price. Nice to visit every once in a while, but not my first pick for sushi!
Kura Revolving Sushi Bar
The ice cream tastes great! Good for anyone with a sweet tooth! I really like the taro scoop we got. The fresa con crema was also good but not nearly as good as the taro.
La Michoacana Phoenix
8/10 Good but for $8 I really wanted to taste the lychee. I got the lychee lagoon lemonade. It looked and tasted like regular lemonade. I love lemonade though so obviously it was still good
Marlee's Lemonade
Mid
Good to try, but not like super amazing. May or may not revisit
4.5/5. Wait I'm actually so proud of this photo, it looks so good 😌 . I really liked the food, solid restaurant. I like their rice. It's really good, but not super revolutionary so I give it a 4.5. Maybe if I go back and become more familiar with th...
Kungfu Kitchen |
4/5. My friend's ordered the dumplings and I got roujiamo and the shredded potato. This one is my fault because I liked the roujiamo before and I really liked it but this time the meat was different and sweet. I hadn't been there for a long time so I...
Happy Baos
4/5. I usually go to the one in Phoenix because it's closer but go to the one with the claw machines instead, it's way better. These drinks are probably a 3/5, mostly sugar and boba quality is meh. I ask them to put extra popping boba twice now and t...
Boba Cucue
4.5/5 I was really starving that night, my family and I were heading back from an event late at night. We found this place and the food was delicious. I was really hungry so I didn't think about taking too many photos. You'll have to go there to tast...
Original Cuisine 小橙都 | Order Now for Authentic Chinese ...
3.8/5 I got the Chee Mango, the drink in the photo is the Ube-licious I bought for my friend. It's not bad but kinda watery and the added lotus made it not taste like lychee or mango anymore. Just tastes like flowers and cream. Not a huge fan of the ...
Tattoos - 808 Social
3.5/5 The pizza is pizza. It's hard to hate pizza. It's kinda expensive tho, the crust is very very thin. I somehow was able to eat the whole pizza myself and I can usually only eat 2 slices. It tastes good, but I ordered the margherita pizza so very...
POMO Pizzeria Downtown Phoenix: Genuine Italian Flavors
3.5/5 So pretty inside! Literally like stepping into a dream. This shop is a hidden gem. The coffee was meh, very bitter but I will try to order something else next time! I liked my bagel and the worker was very nice. Update: I like their italian sod...
