🏙️My North Phoenix View
Quick local insight from your neighborhood’s front porch
I’ve been noticing a pattern lately. A place looks incredible on Instagram, the décor is dialed in, the plate is picture-ready… and the food is just okay. Not bad, not great, just okay. And with what we’re all paying to eat out in North Phoenix, “okay” doesn’t really land.
What’s interesting is how often the most hyped spots aren’t the ones people return to. The steady, consistent restaurants rarely trend online, but they deliver where it matters. So it makes me wonder if some newer spots are prioritizing the look over the flavor.
I’m all for a good vibe, but at the end of the day the photo shouldn’t outperform the meal.
Here’s what else is moving and shaking around town.
🏡LNP Real Estate Pulse
What’s moving in the market this week
One of the most common questions I get is can you look at a home that is contingent? You can look at any home where the seller accepts your appt. However, when a home is contingent not all sellers want more people coming through.
I would love to help a few more people obtain homeownership. Who do you know?
The Mayor’s Reviews Are Back!
This week I stopped by Peoria…
![]() | ![]() |
Back by popular demand are my restaurant reviews. This past week, I was craving Mediterranean food.
The only place I could find was Casa de Falafel. I was really hoping they would have lunch specials but they don’t so I went with the chicken pita. The meal comes with a small cup of soup and the bill came to about $12.
The actual taste of the food was decent. The soup tasted good but it’s soup, and I left thinking I paid too much. Would I go back? I won’t be making a special trip :-)
