Restaurant Progress

Great food and atmosphere. The cocktails are great and the food is delicious. I wasn't sure what to order and my waitress helped narrow down my selection by giving me a through walk of the menu. I felt like you really couldn't go wrong with anything.

Really delicious experience. My husband and I were in town for one night and we chose Progress for our date night restaurant. Every dish we had was flavorful, delicious, and felt very intentional. It's not a "showy" restaurant like some you will find in phx/scottsdale, but I love the neighborhood family vibe.

Drinks: Old Fashioned, Hearts on Fire, IPA, and an off menu cocktail the bartender made. The off-menu cocktail was by far my favorite - one of the best I had. So good. Hearts on Fire was balanced and refreshing. My husband said his IPA was one of the favorites he has had (and we are from Portland), but his Old Fashioned was a little weak for him, which is more personal preference.
Food: Soy Watermelon - super refreshing, great palate cleanser to start the meal. Fried Green Tomato + Burrata - I love anything with burrata and this was so good, the calabrian chili marmalade put it over the top. Lasagna - never had lasagna like this before, it was RICH and very good. Sour cherry crumb cake - also very good.

5 out of 5 amazing food. We tried the leave it to the kitchen 5-course meal. Every course was amazing. Everything tasted amazing, and every bite had amazing fun flavors. Can't even put into words how great everything tasted. Even the cocktails tasted amazing. We had food restrictions but that didn't stop the chef and his amazing team from putting together the 5-course meal together.
This place is a hidden gem. We felt the love that was put into the meals from the amazing fresh flavors. Every meal was designed and cooked to perfection variety of in-house jams, sauces, and desserts. Thank you to the chef and his team for making our date night special with their amazing food and atmosphere. ❤️

Best restaurant I've been to since moving to Phoenix - Menu is small & space is intimate but everything was more delicious than the last thing that came out, service was incredible (everyone was so sweet and chef eric is so talented!) and the ambiance was *chefs kiss*. Great spot for a date night!!

Great experience at restaurant progress. Food was was on point flavors were incredible on the pork belly I had. My wife had the tagliatelle and we shared the burrata. Yum to all things.
Tiny complaint would be portion for cost, not enough to dock anything from the overall rating

We enjoyed our experience at the restaurant, especially the wine area where we were seated, offering privacy and an impressive selection of wines. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about wine. We highly recommend the chef's tasting menu so you get to try different dishes that are offered at the restaurant. You can also request specific dishes to ensure you don't miss out on any favorites.
