The Gladly

Stopped in for a quick lunch - & glad I found this gem. I ordered a "standard" go-to, fresh greens salad with steak . . . Boy, was I amazed at the quality of the food! Definitely, one of the best cuts of steak I've ever been served on a salad. Tender, perfectly prepared, with great flavor from marinade that complimented the flavor of the meat without overwhelming. Figs & candied almonds also were subtle additions that made the salad enjoyable.Server was upbeat and attentive - went the extra mile without being intrusive.I will definitely return to try another entree for dinner.

Best meal I've had yet, in Phx. The scallops were perfectly medium-rare, with a browned fond that was crisp and delicate. Beautifully paired with fresh corn grits, lardons, and some kind of cola reduction--really fantastic. We were a party of five, and all enjoyed their dishes. Great service, a light and airy space with lots of green, plant-filled views (a rarity in Phoenix, where everything tends to brown). Can't wait to go back. Thanks for a really nice meal.

Our server/service was great. She was attentive and not overbearing and respected our space/time on deciding on the menu. She gets a star for herself (wish I remembered her name).I thought the dinner menu was underwhelming and not too many choices. This can be good or bad depending on how you see it. I was a little leery on ordering any seafood as I could smell it in the air (usually a sign of not so fresh seafood). Although, I must say.... i enjoyed my steak salad and my husband enjoyed his chicken dish. Would I go back you ask? Nah, it's pretty and all but not a restaurant that I would return to or recommend off the bat as there are so many other places to try. If I could give 1/2 stars, this would be a 2.5. Don't take it personal, I'm coming from SF, LA & NYC. Hard to please this palette. Onto the next...

I have wanted to try this place for a long time and I am glad I finally made it! I started off with some bubbly that complimented the cheese fondue so well. The cheese was delicious and paired well with the bread, sausage and pears. I had the steak salad and everything was well seasoned and the steak cooked well. The service was great and the staff attentive and helpful. The place got progressively more busy as the night went on but the noise level was not bothersome. Cannot wait to come back!

Wow wow wow -- this restaurant, ambience and service are truly delightful.My server, Fabian (sp?), was just wonderful -- friendly, and really helped me navigate my gluten free options.I began with "That One Drink," a concoction of vodka; orange marmalade reduction and Elderflower. Delicious!My starter was the roasted Brussels on a bed of incredibly creamy sweet corn polenta, finished with Pecorino and truffle oil. Honest to God, I could have licked the plate clean of that polenta! For my entree, I chose the Original Chopped Salad, eliminating the couscous and having steak, rather than salmon. Also wonderful! The homemade buttermilk dressing beautifully sets off all the flavors of the salad.The interior is industrial and inviting, and there are lovely outdoor seating areas, as well as nice architectural landscaping.The Gladly has been around for about 10 years, and it's no wonder. If you haven't been, get yourself to The Gladly. (And shout out to Vicente, who gave me all kinds of background on the restaurant, and Phoenix)

Stopped by for a quick happy hour drink before dinner elsewhere. Place was pretty empty around 3:30p on a Friday which allowed for a nice relaxing vibe. The bartenders were quick to take our order and super friendly! My husband ordered the Gladly Whiskey old fashioned and I had an espresso martini. We paid an extra $3 for the ice ball and it was totally worth it! Such a fun thing to watch as the bartender described the process to us. We also ordered the bacon fat popcorn which was SO good (with a bit of salt added). Great place to start a date or have a date night!

It was completely unplanned but ended up becoming one of my favorite dining experiences in Phoenix. They earned its title as a Whisky bar. There is a nice tweak in every cocktail on their menu, so I picked "coffee & cigarettes" . It tasted smoky and delicate, really love it. The chopped salad is a must. With the appealing look, you might be more amazed by the dressing. Try it! Interesting pairing with grits for the pan seared scallops. Very delicious!I like the contemporary ambiance and great services. Highly recommended.

Their flavors are so unique on the menu! I like to see different variations of popular American menu items on menus. I know they're known for their chopped salad, but get the crudo first!I'm keeping this version of a chopped salad in my repertoire. Definitely will be recreating when I get home. They have the salad in a nice striped design when they bring it out and then mix it right in front of you like a work of art! The waiter told me this salad keeps them in business.The crudo was amazing! The sauce was mild but slightly sweet like lemon and the pickled onions gave it a nice zest. The fish was so tender, fresh, and non-stringy. The servers were also attentive and quick. No complaints at all. They have a little parking lot and lots of outdoor seating.

So glad for The Gladly!! Upscale ambiance! Food and drinks appeared quickly right after ordering, as if the chef could read your mind and make your food magically appear!!Started with that one drink (yes, that's what it's called). It was good, but a little too tart for me. The shrimp cocktail was alright, nothing special. It came with a creamy sauce and cocktail sauce. I preferred the cocktail sauce. I don't recommend the brussel sprouts here. Very bland and not much aromatic flavor. On the other hand, the scallops were solid! Not the best scallops I've had, but pretty solid! The Gladly is not the best restaurant out there if u want mouthwatering flavorful dishes. Their dishes are mildly flavored, which is better for u in general, as I think they go really easy on the salt! The Gladly is definitely where u need to dine if u have celiacs disease. Their entire menu is practically gluten free!! Overall, great ambiance, tons of gluten free options, and really quick service!

Great food and service. Dined here with a large work group, they were kind enough to accommodate us last minute. The food is outstanding, everything from their salmon salad to Brussels sprouts to comfort foods like tater tots! My entree was the short rib and it was out of this world. The portion size is huge and can easily feed two people. The snickers ice cream dessert was delicious. My glass of Cabernet was one of the best I've had.Wonderful service from our waitress. Cute decor and ambiance.
