It was finally date night for my wife and me. My wife and I were discussing where we should have dinner. We have dedicated, one night a month together, for husband and wife time for the past 7 years. I look forward to it every month and so does she. We try and pick a new and different place to eat every time. Well, this month we decided on Carly’s. After looking at the menu and seeing the delicious entrees they offer, not to mention their full, great bar selection. Also, the amazing reviews helped our decision. We finally chose to try it out. We were so impressed from the minute we walked in, to the minute we left. It was amazing. I was stunned right from the start in the parking lot. The awesome artwork and murals painted on the building gives this place an awesome vibe and flare you can’t get anywhere else. It is located right in the heart of downtown, where everything you need is within walking distance. The streets are packed with life, music, and vendors. Well, We walk in, and the energy is contagious. The smooth live band that was performing, and a great fully stocked lit-up bar caught my eye. The atmosphere was calm & pleasant. I knew right away we had made a great choice and were in the right place. I couldn’t wait to eat I was so hungry. We were greeted and seated right away. Our waiter was super friendly and so patient with us, we explained to him this was our first time here and if he had any recommendations. He gave us plenty of choices to choose from and we ultimately decided on the Reuben sandwich and the bruschetta as a starter. Being as busy as they were, the food came out quite fast. It’s look great and Everything tasted amazing. And surprisingly, all for a great affordable price, as well. I highly recommend this bistro if you are ever downtown or in the area. You won’t regret it. Thanks, Carly’s! We will be coming back very soon.

We came into town to visit and came upon this place. It intrigued us from the chill vibe. We ordered 2 cocktails and an app and everything was delicious! The bartender was very personable

I had the ruby basil cocktail and the smoked salmon sandwich with orzo salad, AMAZING!
Fiance had the meatloaf burger w Carlys Colada, SO GOOD!
Not sure what bestie ate but she had the sangria and that was amazing too.
We also shared the hummus platter which was oh-so good and the pita was also fantastic.
The server was friendly and attentive, prices were not crazy at all.

Carly's has been a downtown-neighborhood favorite for many years. The people behind this establishment are very much about helping our communities; They have helped bring awareness to our diverse communities here, providing great food that's fresh and lots of smiles.
In the evening, they have live-music which is a real treat to eat and watch...the patio is chill and the murals they have mean a lot!
We are so thankful for this place and looking forward to returning again. Staff has always been nice too, espresso drinks are great here. Thanks, Carly's- see ya again soon!

My husband and I had our first date in this place. We ordered Humus the first time. Then we moved and came back to Phoenix. We decided to go again and we were impressed with the food. Everything really fresh and delicious! Also the drinks and service. We love Carly’s

This quite bistro may sit in the middle of downtown but I found it to be intimate and out of the way. We sat out front to watch the traffic and listen to a jazz band that they have playing. Good music and watching traffic makes for a great setting. The staff was really nice and even though it started to get busy we never felt forgotten about. Simple menu but the food was good I had the Cuban and my S.O. had the ultimate grilled cheese and soup. Both were outstanding, I highly recommend for a inmate date night in a crowded part of town.

I love this place, I’ve been getting the same salmon asparagus salad with artichoke dip for maybe eight years now and it never disappoints. They’ve had the same employees for many years and they’re all truly wonderful people. I am very thankful for this place and everyone who works there. Love, Chips Only

The drink sizes are teeny tiny. The food is fine, nothing special. If you order an appetizer and want more bread, that's an extra $2.00. I love being nickel and dimed.
I am not sure what they won an award for, it's just an over-priced bar with 4 oz drinks selling for 12 oz prices.
You can split the flat bread. We ordered the Prosciutto and fig, and there was way too much fig and not enough prosciutto.
I was happy to be able to order a mojito, it was good, albeit tiny.
The artichoke dip and bread was delicious and the highlight of the meal.
Water is free and even the water was served in little 4 oz cups.

Got the pear and prosciutto on focaccia with brie and balsamic. I had heard about it and made a special trip to try it and It was divine. The orzo pasta salad was a nice surprise too. Light and delicious. Service was on point and the spot itself is very hip and welcoming. I drank water, but the drink list sounded great, I'll be back to try out a tap beer or a cocktail for sure on my next visit. Great vibes from this place. Check it out for sure.

This place was small and pretty quiet. We did brunch here. We tried one of there famous bloody Mary's and it didn't disappoint and I'm not a huge fan of bloody Mary's. There menu was small but filled with some good items. We tried the meatloaf sandwich and that was so delicious. Also the bacon breakfast burrito was pretty yummy too.
