"Kid Sister has carved out a solid spot for itself in the Phoenix dining scene, evolving from a wine-centric hangout to a growing dining destination. Chef Isaac Mendoza keeps the menu in constant motion, leaning on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients that turn typical wine bar bites into something more substantial. Past highlights include a beef tataki — lightly seared filet with black garlic, pickled mushrooms, and gremolata — and broccoli toast layered with honeynut squash, red curry, and cured egg yolk. The team of sisters Courtney and Casey Lewandrowski, plus co-owner Dej Lambert, regularly hosts events like regional wine tastings, reflecting Kid Sister’s growing influence in the city’s wine culture. Sommelier Zac Adcox guides diners through the evolving wine list, nudging them past familiar pours. Though the culinary and wine elements skew European, the experience itself feels like the next chapter in Phoenix dining." - Mcconnell Quinn, Chris Malloy, Nikki Buchanan
