This is arguably one of the best places to eat in Phoenix. Really incredible experience. It is one of the few five diamond eating experiences in Arizona. The prices make it a special destination place, but you will not forget the time you spend here. It is a 40 minute drive from our house.

The best country wester gay dance bar I have ever been in. Decent dance floor and friendly dancers. It has gone more pop on the last year, but it still is great. Also they usually have a fantastic Mexican food truck in the parking lot if the dancing makes you hungry.
