“…it just doesn’t get more exciting…” – PHOENIX Magazine Review

 It was definitely a pleasant surprise the first time ventured into Tryst Cafe. Everything was so fresh, delicious, perfectly cooked, and the portions were substantial. The restaurant has very spacious, wide open layout with trendy tables/seating in the patio area. If you are at Desert Ridge, skip the chain restaurants, and head over to Tryst Cafe instead!  –Linda W. – Phoenix

 My new favorite! I’ve been here 4 times so far: 1 breakfast, 1 lunch, and 2 dinners. Let me tell you- this place is A-MAY-ZING! YUM! YUM! YUM!! My husband and I can’t wait to come back!!! –Lindsay B. – Phoenix

 This is a cute place. The live music on Monday nights is like a throw back to the 90’s and 00’s (in a good way). Service was busy (on Monday nights there is a special) so the place was understandably busy but our waitress was super friendly and what bumped this place to five stars was the manager. He was helpful, accommodating, all around a great guy and what a manager should be. Yes he is da bomb that made me want to write this .com review. Definitely worth a gander especially on a Monday. –T.P. – Scottsdale

 Love, love, love this place! It’s always fresh and tasty. They have a pretty phenomenal happy hour, half off your entire bill everyday of the week. That what I’m talkin about. Very friendly servers. Also they have gluten free options:) I love the sweet potato tots and and the ahi salad. My husband says they have the best pulled pork ever. I will continue to go back! –Kathryn C. –Laveen, Az

 We’re big fans of Tryst and consider it ‘our’ neighborhood joint. Great food at a great price. Kids and parents–uniformly happy. I’m as addicted to my Starbucks as the next gal, but Tryst is a much better alternative if you want real food and not just a hot beverage. Give Tryst a try, folks. It’s inexpensive, delicious, and friendly. And we really don’t want to lose another good restaurant in our neighborhood; so come on out and support a local business. Next up: Monday night happy hour at Tryst, with live music! – Monica C. – Phoenix

 ORGANIC food is hard to find in a restaurant setting. And then top that with a great atmosphere, a great patio and friendly staff. What more can you ask for? How about a delicious Portobello sandwich and sweet potato tots! Yum!! We happened to be there for happy hour so everything was half off. Enjoyed a tasty organic beer too! 🙂 –Amy G. – Phoenix

 Great new place near Desert Ridge! You’ve gotta try it! And for all those who are environmentally aware they are all organic, locally grown and don’t even have paper towels in the bathroom. They even have an extensive gluten free menu. Breakfast/lunch/dinner. TRY THE SWEET POTATO TOTS, the fresh squeezed (while you wait) Orange Juice and the Crème Brule ….OMG!Will go back over and over again! Great place 🙂 –Meryl L. – Phoenix, AZ

 I can’t believe it took me so long to try this wonderful little gem tucked away in a strip mall across the street from Desert Ridge! As I watched other orders being delivered to tables, I couldn’t help but notice the gigantic hamburger and the huge salads. I will definitely be suggesting Tryst as a regular meeting place for lunch, as there are so many items on the menu I still want to try. Service was very good. Our server was actually quite unobtrusive, but still expedient. Unlike some reviewers, I didn’t find Tryst to be overpriced at all. –Ellen J – Scottsdale

 Great breakfast restaurant near Desert Ridge in North Phoenix–good natural, organic food. Had chorizo and eggs, great presentation and absolutely delicious! Will be back for dinner service and can’t wait to sample some organic wines! –J.J. – Chandler, Az

 Eat here. Had breakfast here. (Amazingly) wonderful. Not expensive and really, good, food. OK, this place is like the Good Egg (which I love), but uber yummy and CREATIVE (at least for breakfast). –Jason A – Cave Creek, Az

 We are staying at the Marriott Desert Ridge and stumbled on to this spot this morning, what a gem!!! The people were great, the food was outstanding. Sorry I don’t live closer to come more often. I had the Huevos Rancheros… definitely not your traditional rendition, but great. My husband had the Hawaiian Breakfast and loved it, too. Staying two more days, will probably go back. –Erin L – Chino, Ca.

 We stopped in for dinner. Food was fantastic, fast, and they had no problem letting me custom order a menu item for low carb eating. Service was excellent, and we even got a nice surprise with the check. (It was really low 😉 –Icewolf

 Yum! There should be a LOVE IT option! –Tiffany

 A little afternoon delight… I’ve been up to Tryst Cafe a few times now and I am a huge fan! Food it great, veggie options that make my mouth water and yummy drinks! They seem to specialize in organic options, even from behind the bar. They have sweet potato tater tots for a wonderful side to sandwiches and such. Extra special in my book! The staff is super friendly and helpful with suggestions. Get yourself up to Tryst soon and enjoy! –Amy R.R.

 Excellent! My first visit was about a month ago and I’ve been back twice. Great spot, atmosphere and food. It’s a great break from some of the larger corporate establishments in Desert Ridge, but its the food that will keep you coming back. –Mike

 AMAZING! I took my family for a late breakfast / early lunch and the food was phenomenal! The service was fantastic as well. I can’t wait to go back! –Kelly A.R.

 Review of Tryst Cafe. All of the food at Tryst Cafe tastes fantastic. My wife and I especially like the breakfast sandwich and hamburgers. We won’t go anywhere else but Tryst Cafe when we are in the mood for a hamburger. The food always tastes fresh and the prices are reasonable. The servers are very friendly. We would highly recommend this Cafe for everyone. – Larry V.
