Best Authentic Restaurants in Phoenix

My brother and wife came in from Florida and specifically asked to eat at Pappas because they wanted the delicious crabcakes!! Everything about the dinner was delicious and the service was wonderful !!

I book a reservation to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Overall my experience was great and yes I would return. However there are few things that could make the experience better. I didn’t like that my food came out separate. I ordered catfish collard greens and sweet potatoes casserole. My sweet potatoes casserole came out first, then 10mins later my catfish n greens. So I wasn’t to happy about that. My daughter had crab claws, wings fries and Mac n cheese. Neither one of us liked the Mac n cheese..it had a weird texture and taste. Besides that everything else was great. Waitress was very friendly. Restroom was clean and smelled clean as well. Parking was easy. Love the grass wall. I definitely will be back. Thanks so much.

4 stars but it could be a 5 any other night. Service is awesome when you get it. So to be clear, on this Saturday night the waiters were in the weeds and none more than ours. The host is top notch but our waitress was running so crazy that we had to grab her for drinks 3x along with our check and take home boxes. Dinner was great, appetizer meat balls and Sally Salad were amazing. Dinner of veal Marsala and Seafood FraDiablo were delish but the chef forgot the crab. That stunted dinner progression. Desert was a Tiramisu Old Fashioned that was powerful. I'd be remised if I didn't mention the bread and dipping sauce which is what I will miss the most. No joke that garlic, pesto, Parmesan pepper crack sauce was freaking the best I've ever had! Those meatballs tho!! Great dinner but we will chalk the weeds up to just being a few hands on this night. #meatballapp

I have been wanting to go to Kabuto for a few years, but my family was hesitant. This was the best dining and entertainment experience that we had in years. Highly recommend

We had reservations for 5pm and was seated on time. It wasn’t super busy when we arrived. Our waiter was super nice and the food was delicious. I will definitely be going back.
