Located in Mesa, there's a small shop at H-mart Mesa that serves the best Chicken Katsu Curry in town. Not only is the portion size huge, but it's also pretty reasonable.

Elks Lodge Jazz Phoenix is an often overlooked historic downtown Phoenix venue, just south of Cornish and downtown. It's a great place to catch some nice jazz, and it's not too crowded, making it a perfect alternative to Cornish Pasty.

The secret garden at ASU is a beautiful and serene location for a photoshoot. It's a peaceful atmosphere, making it perfect for capturing romantic and cinematic moments, especially for an engagement shoot.

Fry Bread House is a must-visit for trying Navajo cuisine, especially after winning a James Beard award. For a taste of authentic Navajo food, visit Emerson Frybread, a Navajo food truck that sets up on 16th st and Glenrosa around noon, serving steamed corn stew or roast mutton.

The Lee Rock Garden is a unique and fascinating landmark in Phoenix that is worth visiting for its intricate sculptures, stones, arches, plates, and other features. The garden started construction in 1958 by Louis Foo Lee, who wanted to create a beautiful garden without maintaining a lawn. Over the years, it evolved into a stunning display of natural and man-made features. You can find it near 40th Street and McDonald.

McCormick Railroad Park is a great option for a fun and budget-friendly day out with kids. You can enjoy the free indoor model train display and other activities for a cost of $50 tops if you do all the things. It's a great place to spend the day with your kids, and it's free if you want it to be. If you're looking for a more comprehensive experience, you can expect to pay around $50 at most.

Zen Vitality is a great spot for a traditional Finnish sauna experience. They offer a 90-minute session at $129, which includes access to their stone sauna and cold plunge. It's worth noting that they have a traditional sauna, which is a rare find in the Valley. If you're looking for a unique and rejuvenating experience, Zen Vitality is definitely worth a visit.

Looking for proper North Indian food, especially grilled and tandoori-style dishes, Bahara is my recommendation. They have fantastic tandoori chicken, garlic naan, and lentil curry (dal).

ServicesN. Phoenix 3w ago •Marcus C

HTC has several locations around the valley, including one in N. Phoenix, and only does piercings so not a tattoo shop or anything like that. They have very high standards for their piercers and are always super clean and professional.

Kids under 10 eat free with adult entree at Chompie's on Tuesdays. It's located on 32nd St & Cactus.

Emo Nite on Halloween sounds like a blast. We always had fun going to those. 95% of people had costumes last year, and people will be in costumes on Halloween regardless of a specific event.

Health & Wellness 3w ago •Brianna Whitaker

Body Works by Joel Gilchrist is a highly-recommended spot for a Deep Tissue massage. You have to book through the Vagaro app, but he's incredible. He's thorough and intentional, paying attention to the details and focusing on the areas that need the most work. He's strong, professional, and doesn't spend the session making small talk, which I personally appreciate.

Education 3w ago •Vivian

The Maricopa County Master Gardeners offer classes and a yearly plant sale at Metro Tech High School, selling low-priced plant starts. These classes are run by experienced gardeners who can provide valuable knowledge and guidance for those interested in gardening in Arizona.

The buffet at Casino Arizona is a popular option for Thanksgiving, but be prepared for a long wait - up to 2 hours. However, if you're willing to wait, the food is reportedly good, and with the right company, it can be a fun experience.

The Stockyards is a great choice for an upscale dining experience with a sports twist. I love it for what it would be, but I’d definitely not call it upscale. Located in Scottsdale, The Stockyards is a great option for a birthday celebration with a nice dinner and sports viewing.

Recommended for its steak offerings, Durant's is a great option for a special night out. Located in downtown Phoenix, it's a relatively short drive from most neighborhoods, and the prices are in line with the asker's budget of $100-150/person.
