Sentiment analysis: Stopped in the midst of an epic casino crawl for the 'Mad Men Special' - Iceberg wedges and Manhattans. Amazing oyster bar, extremely cheerful and attentive staff, definitely recommended.

Sentiment analysis: Went here for dinner without a car wash. Full rack of ribs slathered in sauce with two sides (I chose coleslaw and fries). The meat was moist and came easily off the bone. It was certainly not the best ribs I've ever had, but solid nonetheless. The sides were average. It's an interesting little eating space on the inside. Certainly not charming, but not without its own eclectic character. Our servers were attentive and nice, although I felt a bit rushed by them at the end of the meal. We did a quick walkthrough after the meal and scanned high end gas station fare with plenty of kitschiness and some Restoration Hardware furniture for lounging. Not your average place whether you are getting gas, a car wash, leopard print steering wheel covers, a beverage to go, a brisket, etc., etc.

Sentiment analysis: I have now been twice to Binkley's and have decided this place is so not worth it. Located in what once was the Jackalope Cafe in a strip mall location the interior has changed little from the former buildout. The food is interesting and very expensive but fails to deliver. Everything is beautiful to look at but disappointing on flavor and preparation. My wife and I did the full tasting menu and enjoyed many of the offerings but the main entrees were not good. Striped Bass was overcooked, smelled not very fresh and was served on top of a tasteless vegetable broth. Rib eye ordered medium rare was nearly raw and flavorless. We were glad we did not order the special Kobe Beef priced at $30 per ounce. Desserts are perhaps the low point of Binkley's. Corn with popcorn and bacon in some kind of sauce was bland and tasteless. Other desserts with multi layers of whipped cream and additives seemed like much ado about nothing. A first class pastry chef is needed here. On our previous visit we did a wine tasting menu sponsored by a Nappa winemaker with not much wine to be had. If you go for the food show spectacular there is nothing like Binkley's in Arizona. If only they could live up to their own reputation.
