Joes Farm Grill was featured on Diners Drive In's and Dives. Part of the interior is the house the owner grew up in. There's a huge garden out back and that's where they get all their fruits and veggies. It's amazing and it stays busy!
Joe's Farm Grill
Liberty Market is in downtown Gilbert which is a really cute area, for sure worth checking out. This place has the coolest vibe and the most delicious pizza! I also love their bread with honey butter and fries!
Liberty Market
Living in Texas now I really miss AZ Mexican food. This place has the most amazing green salsa and cheese and corn tamales. I can't find either of those things in Texas.
Gecko Grill
Oreganos is my all time favorite restaurant. They have multiple locations all over AZ, including Flagstaff. They have the best pasta and salad. Their sweet potato fries and Guacatony are chefs kiss!
Oregano's
This place doesn't look like much but the best Mexican food places never do! Their bean and cheese burrito toasted with sour cream is my order every single time.
El Asadero Tacos Al Carbon
This place is delicious! Their Q rolls are amazing and their nachos. Their bbq is tasty too. After every meal they give you fresh cider donuts.
Bobby-Q
Joe's Italian ice is the best I've ever had! They rotate their flavors weekly and you can sample them all if you want! It's so smooth and refreshing.

This place is super famous for a reason! It gets really long waits but it's some of the best pizza I've ever had!
Pizzeria Bianco
This place is half market, half restaurant. It's super cute! The market half has ice cream, cute items like Jellycats, and sandwiches. The restaurant half at dinner has amazing pizza and a burger with ground beef they grind themselves!
