Best Casual Restaurants in Apache Junction

Went for an anniversary dinner and it will definitely be a regular spot. Sebastian was an outstanding waiter with all the perfect recommendations. Kitchen was spot on and had our appetizers out so fast, I thought they were another tables. The bone marrow and ceviche was on point. We had the chimmichurri steak, I was upset when it was gone. Even being full I wanted more. From previous reviews I can say this restaurant is getting their feet up under them and providing excellent service and outstanding food. We will be back.

Perfect evening! We started with the shrimp cocktail (4 pieces) presented beautifully. Then ordered the beef tenderloin medium rare. The meat was tender and cooked perfectly. The puree potatoes tasty and vegetables again cooked perfectly. I told our server this was the best cooked, most tender steak they've served in the 20+ years I've eaten at the Patio. The chef and new menu are delightful! We can't wait to try some of their other items on the menu!

1st time here tonight and they accommodated a party of 12 with 2 hours notice. The hostess made sure the elder members of our party had a place to sit to wait since we arrived 30 min early. Aubrey our waitress was amazing and very sweet. Food was excellent served accurately and simultaneously for a large party. Food was really good. Ordered drinks ahead of time in bar same efficient great service. The only issue is it’s loud. Please give this place a try you won’t be sorry

Went for an early dinner and sat out on the patio overlooking the golf course. Everything was perfect. The weather, the view, cocktails were great, avg. price. Luca was our waiter, did a great job. Now it does seem almost everyone there has an Italian accent so not sure if they are really Italian or just taught the accent, but it adds to the ambience. Everything is freshly made and absolutely delicious. We had their cheesy garlic bread, yum a pizza crust with cheese and seasoning, crust was perfect. The Lobster Raviolis were so delicious, you could taste the freshness and the lobster. My husband had the Tortalini Saracini and couldn’t stop raving about it. It seems that no matter where you go dining prices have risen, but here it hasn’t risen to the point that makes it so you don’t want to even go out. The service, the ambience (outside), the food is definitely top notch. Looking forward to our next visit. Reservations during winter months recommended.

I had dinner with my two toddlers. Enjoyed the scenery right next to Mesa-Gateway airport. We saw several planes land and take off and there was an Air Force cargo plane parked right near the restaurant. The kids ate all their food (not surprising) - Mac N Cheese and fries, and I had the barrio quesadilla (shredded chicken). The meals were good and tasty. No complaints. there It was a little louder than expected, but it was also "Trivia" night, though it was not obnoxiously loud. The volume was tolerable and didn't diminish the experience with my kids. Overall, worth going back to again. It's a good place for food fun with family and friends. Most of the tables inside and outside were occupied, but not overly busy. Will be going back soon.
