Problem: Second time here, and this one was for breakfast. Everything seems to be about alcohol, so we tried a mango margarita, and it was great. Can't say that about the breakfast selection. I wasn't impressed, but of course, will be back. The atmosphere is great and so is the gift shop.

Problem: I love this place. I go to a lot of places. Some try to be too ambitious and fall on the face with their overly-complicated menus. Some try to take things down to a more simple idea and end up overshooting, making everything bland and too usual. Angel Trumpet has no such flaws. They're also not perfect, but I can justify that 5-star review. Let's get it out of the way: The chairs suck, they're kind of uncomfortable and rigid. The beer prices are kind of what we like to call "astronomical" for a mostly poor beanly-fellow such as myself. The food can come out a little slow. It's all true, if someone else said it in another review, I can back that all up. And yet, I don't really give a damn. This is a local joint in downtown Phoenix peddling 31 different beers that are always rotating. Not a "regular" beer in sight. It's what downtown Phoenix has been clamoring for. And if you're coming to an ale house, you're coming to drink first and eat later. Still, I like their food. Stroganoff burger...oh man. I'm such a sour cream whore and, I love my food saucy and wet but I hate soggy stuff. The bun stood up to the stroganoff sauce and the sour cream and the mushrooms and the juicy medium-cooked beef perfectly. The 810 sandwich with hand-pulled turkey works in spite of the overly-southwestern theme (pull back on the adobo a bit, it can taste like the restaurant equivalent of "taco seasoning" that every white person I know uses to make tacos) because each of the ingredients is high-quality. The bread is fresh and crisped. The ribbon chips are amazingly thin. People have griped and complained for literally decades that downtown doesn't have any neat, laid-back places to have a beer and be a human, with most places downtown still ready to serve the post-5pm cattle herd and nothing more. Here you have a genuine Phoenix experience. Don't gripe too much. Soak it up. We'll will be back there. Will you?

Problem: I stayed in a Celebrity Spa Suite for my 3 night Vegas vacation. While the casino area is nice, the hallways, rooms, and bathrooms are very dated and ugly. For some reason, they think that it is a good idea to put a humongous wooden tv compartment in the middle of the room. As I opened the door, it to watch tv, the door fell off the hinges. The only plus was the we had a spa tub in the bathroom. Other than that, not very appealing. i will opt for an upgrade and go with Bellagio or the Venetian on the next trip.

Problem: Yes, the burgers really are as good as the hype. I'm from New York and I've been telling everyone and their mom to go try a burger here. I had the heavenly experience of a "sweet and spicy" a few weeks and can still vividly remember it. (In fact, I want one now.) I was dubious that anything with candied jalapenos could possibly be a good thing, but, yes. Yes it is. The burgers are on the big side so come hungry! The sweet potato fries are yummy too (not that you will have any room for them but ...) The staff is really great and makes the experience. I've only been a few times but I feel like a regular with how welcoming everyone is. The other day they ran out of the porter on tap. The bartender was soooo cute and went out of her way to help me find another beer. She knew the beers on tap, how to describe them and provided me with samples. LOVE her. Good stuff here. You should check it out. UPDATE: Two days after I wrote this I went back for another burger. I could not stop thinking about the sweet and hot mix. This time I got a hotter one! Tip from the bartender: Don't order an IPA with anything hot. You'll just make it worse. (I did not know that.) Lucky for me I had something else on the reverse happy hour :) Seriously - if you haven't had a burger at this place GO RIGHT NOW.
