"Kids are often unable to resist the homemade French fries at Chelsea’s Kitchen. This Phoenix bistro uses organic ingredients in its nachitos, vegetarian black bean burger, and crispy chicken sandwich. The entrees for kids include macaroni and cheese, chicken tacos, and a fish plate. Outdoor seating is lively and open. For those who are not too afraid to let kids eat dessert first, there are cookie samples as soon as diners walk into the restaurant." - Jamie Killin, Rudri Patel
"String lights, cozy seating, and a festive atmosphere make Chelsea’s Kitchen an inviting space for gathering with family or friends. Patrons can’t miss the gigantic tree at the center of the outdoor area, while just beyond the patio, one of Phoenix’s famous canals drifts along like a lazy river. The affordable modern American menu is famous for its skillet green chile cornbread, its tuna tartare and guacamole appetizer, and its award-winning short rib tacos. And, glory be, customers are offered a free cookie on their way out the door!" - Mcconnell Quinn, Nikki Buchanan, jamiekillin, Rudri Patel
"Housed in a 1940s brick building repurposed into a roadhouse, Chelsea’s Kitchen features a wood-burning rotisserie grill, smoke-yard, and a cozy patio. The food is classic Southwestern fare like cornbread with green chili, burgers, grilled salmon, and taco platters." - MATADOR_NETWORK
"When it comes to dining out with your pet in Arizona, shade is important, and at Chelsea’s Kitchen you can rest assured there will be sheltered from the sun thanks to the massive tree at the center of the patio. Of course, the taco platters and white sangria don’t hurt either." - Jamie Killin
"Chelsea’s Kitchen is often recognized for its lush, tree-shaded patio which features an outdoor bar, colorful chairs, and, of course, its large fireplace. It offers an idyllic setting for weekend brunch, lunch meetings and boozy happy hours in a space that will have you forgetting you’re just steps away from the bustling Arcadia neighborhood." - Jamie Killin
