The Neighborly has quickly become one of my favorite places to dine! The atmosphere is fantastic, warm, inviting, and just feels like the kind of place you want to spend a relaxing evening.
The food menu is where this place really shines. I had an incredible meal on my last visit, focusing on their happy hour:
Charred Brussels Sprouts: Absolutely fantastic. They had a great char and perfect seasoning, making them totally addictive.
Oysters Rockefeller: These were spot on. Rich, savory, and cooked beautifully, a real treat.
Wings (sauce on the side): The wings themselves were crispy and flavorful, and having the sauce on the side meant I could control the heat perfectly.
Skillet Short Rib Nachos: If you need a serious comfort food fix, order these. The short rib was fork-tender, and the skillet kept everything warm and gooey. They are dangerously good.
The food easily hits a 5-star mark for flavor and execution. You absolutely must try the food here! This is a must-visit.

Our last night in Phoenix and I picked The Neighborly to go to for dinner, and boy am I glad we did! Alex M was our server, but everyone that attended to us were wonderful, from the hostess that sat us, to the young woman who brought us our drinks and our dessert. I had ordered the Brussels sprouts for an appetizer and… OMG! They were absolutely amazing . I had the prime rib for dinner as well and it did disappoint. My son and I were already full but we ordered dessert to share… brown butter yellow cake with ice cream and fresh whipped cream… that was scrumptious! All these calories were worth it!

An amazing, fresh, innovative spot! Stoped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by how amazing it was. Everything was fresh and exceeded our expectations, we tried the Club and the French dip. It was something we’re planning to come back and get again.
We capped off our lunch with a fresh piece of key lime pie. We’ve had our fair share of them, and this was the closest thing to Miami Florida we’ve had!
We’ll be back!

Arriving at 5:30 on a weeknight w no reservations, a friend and I found no wait and were warmly greeted and promptly seated on the patio. Road noise was an intrusion at times w the occasional horn from passing rush-hour traffic.
Service was courteous and attentive, offered up specials and turned orders w a quickness.
There are plenty of drinks on offer and I choose the gin-based Good Morning Sunshine.. not too sweet but with really nice citrus notes and a slight bitter bite.. perfectly neutral and naturally pairing w almost anything on the menu I imagine.
My friend and I split chips w the smoked salmon dip as an ap. The chips were fine and the salmon dip was great.. not too fishy but with some nice smokey notes.
After some recent travel, I wanted something simple and homey and ordered the classic chicken. Served over a bed of seasoned mashed potatoes w goat cheese that were swimming in a shallow lake of a thin chicken gravy, the chicken.. a split bone-in chicken breast and leg.. was perfectly seasoned and roasted. The potatoes were perfect.. not riced but not completely rustic either.. they had a nice mix of consistency with some good flavor coming from the goat cheese.. and they mated nicely w the gravy.
Overall, I had a great time.. road noise notwithstanding, it’s a nice environment offering great service and really good food. I look forward to returning.

It’s a Saturday, early evening 6:15, and it’s busy. I didn’t have a reservation, found a couple seats at the bar, extremely high bar stools! We sat near the pass. Service was amazing. Started off with a Whistle Pig Old Fashioned. It was extremely sweet for my liking. $22 for that cocktail. I ordered the cast iron skillet, green chile cornbread with honey butter. It was delicious and cake like . The chiles were not spicy. My husband loved it. Next i ordered the broiled oysters Rockefeller. This was the highlight of the meal. So rich with the creamed spinach and bacon. My husband ordered the pork Milanese for his entree. It looked wonderful. It is a plateful! Be forewarned. A couple could easily share this with an added side dish. I ordered the Uptown Caesar with blackened salmon. The salmon was cooked to perfection and not too salty for being blackened . Cudos for that! The Caesar dressing had a wonderful creamy lemon and smoked anchovy taste. Paired well with the salmon and The Frank Family chardonnay. The wine was half price due to their July special. We really enjoyed our meal and watching the pass line. Would go back.

We have been to the Neighborly twice now and have mixed reviews. On our first visit we had the chicken pot pie and prime rib sliders. Our food and service were excellent the first time. Tonight we sat at the bar for dinner service and ordered Caesar salad, grouper fish sandwich and lobster bisque. Our cocktails were delicious and the salad has lovely cornbread croutons-such a nice touch! The fish was prepared with panko crust and tasted delightful. The lobster bisque was flavorful but unfortunately had no lobster in it at all. I think they served from the top and didn’t blend before serving. When we mentioned this to our staff it was dismissed as typical for the soup, and we were disappointed with that attitude.

Dined on the patio 9/13/25. Good vibes and service. The appetizer was the best part (CHARRED BRUSSELS SPROUTS) with bacon & garlic pieces. The salmon was average (and came with seasoned saltine crackers) & do not order the CHARRED CAULIFLOWER STEAK, it’s just a giant cauliflower with other veggies. I recommend they rename it or mark under it *vegetarian dish and remove the steak from the title, it’s misleading especially listed with the other meats. At least have the server explain that it’s not steak. That’s my bad for not clarifying before ordering but heads up. Will not be back.

1st time visit for lunch. Wonderful outdoor shaded patio. Chef Nate brought us first timers a complementary egg salad topped with bacon and crackers. Delish . Servers were kind and attentive. We had the chicken pesto sandwich with jicama peanut slaw and the sesame encrusted ahi tuna meal( noodles, tomato , avocado) . Both dishes were excellent. Wonderful atmosphere, Top notch service . The Neighborly will now be in my top ten Phoenix restaurants . Can’t wait to try the rest of this interesting menu.

Dined Saturday night August 2nd at 8:30 p.m.. order the cheeseburger and date salad. Best prepared meals I have had in a long while. Cheeseburger meat was magnificently marinaded with great love. The salad was incredible also with the plethora of beans cheese avocado, nuts, and housemaid croutons that were fabulous. I plan to make this a regular dining treat. Hats off to the chefs in the kitchen that do a remarkable job.

I hate coconut… and somehow their Coconut Cream Pie dessert turned me into a coconut lover. It was unreal.
The espresso martini was perfect, the crab cakes were delicious, and Sam, our waiter, was friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. I also loved how the whole staff supported each other and shared tables. You could really feel the teamwork.
We live in North Phoenix and honestly found this place by accident, but it ended up being the perfect date night
