Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Ainsworth PHX offers a lively atmosphere, perfect for game days with its "great location" near the Footprint Center. Guests appreciate the "cool place" vibe and "great food" options like mac and cheese sliders and truffle fries. Although service can be slow during busy times, the accommodating staff and "attentive" servers enhance the experience.

    The place was completely closed and phone number wasn’t even active. Ended up having to go eat somewhere else.

    The food was ok, but we had poor service. It took the server more than 45 minutes to bring drinks, and she never offered water. Also, we had to keep asking for the bill to pay. We were completely ignored. Thumbs down to this place.

    They were out of several menu items on Superbowl Sunday. Hostess was not there to seat us and had to be tracked down for about 5 min. The superbowl broadcast was also delayed and some of the show missed. Not ran very smoothly

    It started louder than an actual dance club. Was seated and took 10 min before a server came to our table. From there it went downhill fast. Another 15min to get water and food followed shortly (both were ordered at the same time). Fries came out cold - asked for a fresh replacement- was given ones colder than the returned ones. Also anytime The footprint center has an event the Ainsworth does automatic gratuity. For the service that was less than subpar you are forced a gratuity regardless. Asked for a manager and left without ever speaking with one. 10/10 would not recommend

    Made reservations, arrived on time. Took 15 minutes to be greeted by a server. Then took 35 minutes for our salads to arrive. Drinks never came. Had to ask someone to then send a server, so we could pay our bill. We were never checked on, never asked how our food was, or if we needed anything. Worst service ever. Food was descent, but we will never come here again. Do NOT recommend

    The Ainsworth Phoenix is the perfect spot for a great night out! From the moment I walked in, the energy was lively, and the atmosphere was both stylish and inviting. The food was top-notch—every dish was flavorful, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re there for dinner, drinks, or to catch a game, the experience is elevated by the incredible service. Speaking of service, my server went above and beyond, delivering the kind of attentive and personable hospitality you’d expect at a high-end restaurant. Their recommendations were spot-on, and they made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, The Ainsworth is a must-try in Phoenix. I’ll definitely be coming back!
