The staff are friendly and we had a good time despite issues with the launch of the new menu. I was surprised that the new menu does not feature any Rose flavored drinks. The Lemonade Palmer mocktail was delicious and I was glad to hear they are keeping it on the new menu. Unfortunately we visited on a day the kitchen was inoperative, but we appreciate the gift from the bar!

Francisca and Chad were amazing bartenders. They were so friendly and welcoming, it really makes all the difference. The cocktails were absolute fire. “ The last rose” was hands down the most magnificent margarita I’ve ever had. The service was fantastic. My husband and I got our drinks within minutes, so fast. If you love high end craft cocktails like me, make this a mandatory stop.

As a local guide with many years experience reviewing restaurants I urge you NOT TO patronize this OVERPRICED bar in downtown Phoenix. First of all I was left standing outside the bar in the hot Phoenix weather as it is not clear how you enter the bar. No one helped me or tried to direct me into the bar after it had opened. Me and my friend separately tried to sit down at a table as opposed to the bar. We were both dressed formally and appropriately. They told both of us SEPARATELY that tables were reserved. Unfortunately this proved to be a lie as no one came to any of the tables we tried to sit at and they had no reserved signs on them. The bar must have some racial prejudice against us. I was also told and double checked with an employee that drinks were two for the price of one as part of “Happy Hour” on Saturdays. There is a sign displayed in the pictures I added to my review that shows Happy Hour is on Mondays and Fridays but the staff member told me it was on Saturdays too. This employee lied to me, and then denied that she had lied. I managed to get one of my drinks taken off my bill as a courtesy, but of course this wasn’t without a fuss from the staff member. As a response to my Google review they have alleged confusion on our part. This bar is digusting and should be shut down for lying to and discriminating against customers. I would definitely recommend checking out Quartz which has a much more inclusive vibe.

If you’re looking for the perfect night out, look no further than the Rose Garden Cocktail Lounge—and make sure Haneen is your server! She’s not just amazing at what she does; she is the experience. From the moment we arrived, the lounge’s romantic, floral atmosphere set the tone—soft lighting, cozy seating, and elegant details everywhere. But the real magic started when Haneen greeted us with the warmest smile. She’s effortlessly charming, attentive without hovering, and has an intuitive sense for timing. It felt like she could read the table’s vibe perfectly. She guided us through the cocktail menu with genuine excitement and nailed every recommendation. Her passion for the craft and the customer experience shows in every detail. We also ordered the cannoli, and WOW— absolutely delicious. Haneen hyped them up, and she was so right. Creamy, delicate, and the perfect sweet finish. Haneen is a true gem. She turned a simple night out into something special. If you’re lucky enough to have her as your server, you’re in for a treat. Rose Garden, you’ve got a star on your hands!

Me and my girlfriend left carry on looking for a place to eat we walked past this place and were greeted by Chad I could spend two hours talking about how much fun and how amazing that guy made our experience we had an absolute blast. I told him what I liked and he gave me recommendations that I absolutely loved I would seriously recommend this place 12/10 based on the food and drinks alone. But Chad I would give Chad 100/10 if I could that guy is amazing and I’m seriously the last person to leave a review anywhere but after how amazing our night was, I genuinely would have lost sleep if I didn’t. Update: I tried to post a second review and I physically couldn’t but Chad is seriously that good if you are in downtown phoenix and looking for somewhere fun to grab a drink and some great food I whole heartedly recommend coming here

The atmosphere and design of the place were excellent—really well thought out and enjoyable. The drinks were also nicely done. As for the food, it was just okay. We tried the Anatolian Flatbread and the Chicken Caprese Sliders. The flatbread was decent, but the sliders were a letdown. They really lacked flavor and were quite dry—definitely could use a sauce or some seasoning to bring them to life.

We saw that this bar had some really good reviews as we were bar hoping through downtown so decided to give it a try. We didn't realize this place closed at midnight so when we got there at 11:45 we were wondering why it was so empty. The bartender was nice enough to just give us a heads up that it was last call but happily took our order. Being a big fan of tequila and mezcal we went with the Blush and Burn and the Harvest essence. What we received in front of us after ordering was a beautifully crafted cocktail, in very cool glasses that we really liked, and delicious to boot. I was worried the habanero tequila would overpower the Blush and Burn but that was not the case at all. The cocktail had a delicious spicy kick to it while having refreshing cooling effect from the grapefruit soda and sweetness from the strawberry habanero syrup. The Harvest Essence was also such a good mezcal cocktail and enjoyed the sip I got from my wife. Overall the bar has really good decor and cool vibe even with it just being us in there. To top it off the bartender, Marissa, was very friendly and chatted it up with us as we enjoyed our cocktails past the bar closing time. This is definitely a place I want to visit again before we leave.

When I go out, I like to visit three spots in one evening. Because good spots come in threes. After the second spot we checked out, I hopped on the trusty Yelp app to find the third and final one. The Rose Garden AZ had good reviews and was a short walk away, so we made our way over. Located in downtown Phoenix, this bar and restaurant definitely stands out. Ambiance (3/5): This is what The Rose Garden stands out for. If the nam doesn't give it away, there's floral decor everywhere. The best way I can sum it up is that this spot definitely play into Instagram culture. There are photo opps galore. Not my vibe, especially because it seems overdone here. Service (4/5): We arrived close to closing time and sat at the bar. There was only one other party there with us. So, not a busy house, and the bartender took care of us efficiently. He greeted us promptly, checked in on us, and when I grabbed ahold of him to close out, he took care of things quickly. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior so no food on this visit. However, I did peruse the menu and found that it's mostly light bites. Salads and flatbreads and such. Drinks (3/5): The Rose Garden is cocktail-centric and they do have some interesting options. My cocktail was vodka-based and came with fresh thyme. It was solid but there was a bit of sticker shock as most of their cocktails are between $17-$25. Well done but a little pricey for what you get. The Rose Garden is a solid bar. Not quite my type of bar but one that would appeal to some.

We really enjoyed this bar. We arrived within an hour of closing and Marissa was super nice to us. She made us some delicious drinks. The place is beautiful perfect for Instagram pictures. We really wanted to come back before leaving town, but we couldn't. It is definitely on our list of places to visit in downtown Phoenix.

The ambiance here is serene and really does feel like a garden party. I enjoy both the indoor and outdoor bar when the weather is nice. The drinks are pleasant, if pricey. The same can be said for the food- pricey and small portions but good quality. The biggest drawback is the high turnover of bartenders. It seems like the staff has been generally disgruntled with management since they opened. I don't think I've ever had the same bartender twice. If they reduce their prices to make them more reasonable and treat their staff well, this could easily be a 5 star cocktail bar. If you do go- I'd recommend the ricotta dip and Voyage of Pemrose cocktail. Be aware- they don't offer food in the summer. Pretty crazy, right? I'd appreciate if they had their full menu year round. No other cocktail bar downtown reduces the menu for the summer.

This downtown Phoenix place has a great ambiance. Our server told us the story about Rose Garden and a peacock competing for the attention of being the most beautiful. That explains all of the roses and peacocks in the decor. There is even a stuffed peacock in the center of the room hanging from the ceiling surrounded by fringed lights. The bar has one side in the building and one side on the patio, and there is a rather large patio outside on 1st avenue. When you enter the bar from the building, as opposed to the patio, you're given a rose - - a very nice touch! We had a great server who took the time to help with the menu and tell us the story of Penrose the peacock. We arrived during happy hour which had great deals on classic cocktails, but we decided to order off the specialty menu. We got: *Take a Stroll--a fruity tequila an aperol cocktail *Voyage of Penrose--a tropical rum drink served in a peacock cup *Golden Harvest Charcuterie *XXXtra Spicy Pala Flatbread Cocktails were top notch. I really loved with a capital L the Take a Stroll! The flatbread was really, really small for $18, and tasted mediocre at best. But no worry because the Golden Harvest Charcuterie made up for it. It was huge and had a great combination of meats and cheeses. I'm not sure if I'll race back, but it's a decent option if you're in the area.

Haven't been to the Rose Garden in years, but I saw an instagram ad for a paint and sip so we decided to go! They have canvases, paints, brushes, and sponges at the front table, and you can grab whatever you'd like to paint. It is not one of those events where someone walks you through what to pain, so you have full creative freedom. There's no additional cost to paint, but in order to participate, you have to order two items which is quite easy to do considering it's a paint and sip. So you and a friend with one drink each easily covers that requirement. There was only one server/bartender/all of the above working that afternoon and I felt for him after learning he had just started and was left alone to run the place with this event going on. An hour~ish later, another employee showed up and then people were then able to order food, but by that point we were wrapping up our painting and had already set sights for another establishment to procure some food.

I went to Rose Garden again yesterday, because clearly I can't stay away and honestly, why would I? This place is pure velvet-wrapped, candle-lit magic. I've been here multiple times, and every single time it just hits. Sexy, mysterious, and effortlessly cool. This time we sat outside at the bar, which connects to the inside bar, so you can pick your vibe - mood lighting and moody stares indoors or open-air flirtation and fairy lights outside. Either way, it's a full sensory experience. The music? On point. The crowd? Attractive. The atmosphere? Somewhere between old-Hollywood glam and "I just might fall in love here." Let's talk cocktails. I dared the bartender to surprise me and bless them, they did not disappoint. Between the three of us, we sampled a few of their stunning specialty drinks. One was some vodka-based concoction that tasted like the kind of mistake I'd make twice. Another was this matcha masterpiece that felt like dessert and danger in the same glass. All of them? Gorgeous. Think vintage glassware, sexy pours, and flavors that flirt with your taste buds. I usually get food here (because it's actually solid), but I wasn't hungry this time. Probably too busy swooning over my drink. Now, here's where it gets interactive: I chairmen every single one of you reviewers to head to Rose Garden, scroll through my janky little drink pics, and try to guess what we ordered. Winner gets absolutely nothing but my respect--and maybe a little envy if you guess right. This spot is my go-to when I want to feel cute, classy, and maybe a little dangerous. 5 stars, always.

Stopped by for happy hour and sat at the bar. bartenders were very friendly and very knowledgeable. They just launched some new drinks the day we were there. Ambiance was fun with floral elements and peacock chandelier. Cocktail got the Caribbean Cowboy was tiki'esque and cinnamon forward, which I really liked. Matcha My Freak was a cool presentation, pistachio liqueur added an interesting note, and matcha was not over powering. Got Ricotta Blossom as an app. light app, hefty scoop of ricotta with salty sweet mixture of chopped toppings. Was delicious but could have used more naan as ate all of it.

Nice place, been here a few times. Need more staff waited for about 25 mins to get a drink after sitting down. The staff slow, two people behind the bar, and I don't think one was making drinks for a Friday night rush hour...sad.

First time we came here the server and manager were rude to us but I decided to give it a 2nd chance and the bartenders were very friendly and accommodating. Made us some yummy drinks. I love the decor here. Drinks were yummy. My star status is based on both visits, so maybe I will upgrade my rating over time.

My group and I came here after Harumi and we were seated right away. At the time, there was only a table of two in there. The entrance and interior is really pretty. I've been here once before about 2 years ago and remembered liking the drinks last time. They have some small bites on their menu but if you're super hungry and looking for something more filling, maybe eat somewhere else first. Our orders: Terminus $20 - a creamy, tropical flavored drink. The banana flavor was a bit strong but still good overall! I tend to choose the drink with coconut milk. Harvest Essence $17 - a smoky mezcal drink. My friend said it was good Take a Stroll x2 $15 - light and refreshing. They loved it Tequila Blanco w/ Sprite $14 - one friend switched to her usual for her 2nd round drink Nice vibe and ambiance. Bartender was nice and attentive. Great place for a date night or girls night out!

Set up is gorgeous. Drapey plants cover the entrance and ceiling, rose decor and paintings all over. The bar creates bar seating indoor and outdoor and a section for outdoor seating. Indoor seating is also available but the space is on the smaller side. We walked in at 7 on a Sat no reservations and got bar seating before a surge at 8. They were booed for tables. Drinks were craft style but I found the result of my witch doctor to be basic in flavor profile 3/5. Friend gave her TexMexTini 4/5. Didn't have food.

This is positively one of my favorite bars in downtown Phoenix. It has amazing aesthetics great vibes for pictures. what I really like is the non alcoholic cocktails to choose from. The appetizers are pretty delicious and it's a great place to take your girls for a night out. My only take away is that the music is too loud I know for those who are looking for more of a club scene may enjoy it but when my girls and I are trying to catch up we can't hear each other and it's frustrating.

The Rose Garden in downtown Phoenix is a whimsical cocktail bar with an enchanting atmosphere in the U.S. Bank building. The venue offers lush decor with florals, soft lighting, and a resident peacock, creating a unique escape from the bustling city outside. Each drink is artfully presented with playful garnishes that make them Instagram-worthy. Alongside the drinks, guests can enjoy a selection of small bites like pork belly sliders, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed evening or after-work drinks.​ Even at the end, presentation matters. I love how they discreetly bring your check to you in a hallow book box. I was in awe of how cute it looked and how it went with the bar's theme. I was impressed. This location is excellent for hanging out, drinking, talking, or enjoying the environment.

My experience was not great...popped in after dinner at harumi, there were 20 people, 1 bartender and the cook was the waiter. Waited forever to have a drink ordered. I got one of the nonalcoholic drinks since I had just had a wonderful one at Rough Rider, and it tasted like it was just canned pineapple juice in my glass it was supposed to have some sort of cinnamon and I think a tonic but I have a very good palate and all it tasted like was canned pineapple juice. Took forever to get the check but I think we left just in time as another party of like 10 showed up as we were leaving. 1. I didn't say when i was there not even a day of the week... 2. All of your drinks should be the same level you should not tell the customer they ordered wrong. 3. After the experience and this response, I doubt I'll be back. I understand it was busy but the drink that took over 20 minutes was still bad and that has nothing to do with how many people are there.

Well, this is disappointing for me to be leaving such a poor review. I have been here many times and have had an exceptional experience each time until last Saturday. Two of my friends and I came in for drinks -- I love their cocktails here and the ambiance. However, during our time here, the server ended up dropping a platter next to me and what I believe is ranch splashed all over my black blazer and my leg. I thought it was only me, but it ended up splashing onto my friend's black dress as well. Apologies were said and the server brought me a bar rag to wipe ourselves off. Then, our server kinda just disappeared after that incident... we had to go to the bar for our drinks. To say I am disappointed with the service given the price point of this establishment and the incident at hand is an understatement. No manager came up to apologize or ask if we were okay or to offer us some other mediation -- but I did see him leaning against the wall at the hostess stand and watching everything go down. Lol. Probably won't be back.

I had been wanting to try out this bar for a while because of friends' recommendations. I finally got to check it out for my birthday celebration. We had a big group of 10 people so I needed to book a table in advance. During the reservation process, I had to pay a fee that was equal to the amount of two drinks relatively, and this fee would go towards the purchases. Other than that, the reservation process was fairly easy. The inside of this place was really cute, and indeed filled with flower decorations. I tried one of their popular cocktail although I do not remember the name of it. I also got to try their matcha shot which was surprisingly tasty. The options on the menu were geared toward sweet and pretty drinks in my opinion. If you prefer less strong and more sweet drinks, especially with a pretty presentation, this is your place. Our friends also ordered some of the food items. They were tasty but could be a bit overpriced. However, being located in downtown Phoenix would justify the price, I suppose. This place is also close to a few other hot spots in town, such as Harumi sushi, Trophy Room, and some other speakeasies. It is a perfect stop for a bar-hopping night out!

Very cute small bar. The service was slow and our champagne tower was held up for a photo shoot... obviously the customer doesn't come first. It was pleasant seeing the staff's bags/coats/things piled onto a car against the wall near the bar either. That takes away from the ambiance. The drinks were good. The major issue was parking because they don't validate... even AMC theaters validate parking.

Beautiful spot for a drink or 2. The food was below average - hummus and pork belly sliders. Pork was dry and hummus was not good. The service was great. Skip the food or order the flat bread. That seems to be popular amongst other patrons.

This place wasn't bad but honestly expected it to be better based on social media hype. Our drinks were good but nothing amazing, service was a little slow but there were only 2 bartenders on staff. They don't have great food options but they're directly across from Harumi so we went there after.

So cute! We stopped in for a drink and appetizer while we waited for a table across the hall at Harumi. The staff was super welcoming and we were seated right away. They did a great job on the decor- the whole place feels like you're in a garden or a fairytale book! We ordered mocktails which were so delicious! The wait for our dinner table was taking much longer than expected so we decided to get a flatbread here. It was SOO good! They do wood fired flatbreads and the flavor is off the charts! The sauce is sweet and really makes every bite! We plan to come back here to enjoy the outdoor patio and try more food on the menu! They also had a date night special for $75 that was 4 drinks and hummus! Pretty good deal

The Food was not good and half of the menu was not available. The waitress was friendly but not attentive. Water was never refilled and you had to hunt down for reordering drinks. The bill was not at all worth just having a cool location to sit. They add a 22% gratuity which is why they do not make extra effort to ensure you are doing okay. They are getting paid regardless. Would never recommend or go back.

Came here after a show to wait for traffic to cool down Saturday night and thought it was very well decorated. The ambiance was great and the staff was so lovely. We sat at the wraparound bar on the outer side and had the perfect view of the bartenders making craft cocktails. It was great! The food was pretty good. We got the mushroom tart which could use a little less balsamic and would be perfect. We also ordered the porkbelly sliders. The porkbelly itself was cooked well but they definitely need new buns because it was very dry and not tasty. Our cocktails on the other hand was delicious!!! I'm trying to cut back alcohol so i ordered their mock tail out of curiosity and thought it was very tasty and had the perfect amount of sweetness. Another thing that did stand out to us was the manager and the staff were very social and actually looked happy to be there which i love seeing when i check out new restaurants. Definitely check them out! Music was great too!

Server was extremely rude and manager also was incredibly snobby. We did nothing wrong and simply came in and sat down. The atmosphere was loud and we weren't yelling or anything like that. Our friend had a Truly in her hand, the server asked us to throw it away. Our friend obliged and did so. We asked the server for a menu. She had a snobby attitude. Reported us to the manager. Manager was a blonde white woman who started asking us how much we had had to drink and said her server reported we had had too much. Seriously? We were not sloppy at all and it felt very prejudice because we were dressed in costumes for an event. We were going to book a big party here for drag brunch, but we will not be booking here.

Love a good cocktail parlor and grabbed some evening cocktails with an old colleague, per her Yelp bucket list we decided on The Rose Garden! Little background: This cocktail bar is on the bottom floor of what seems to be a office complex in downtown Phoenix. There are many affordable garages near by, but I was actually able to snag one of the many metered street parking options! 2 hour max from 8-5 and 4 hours during evening at $1.25 an hour, not too bad! The Rose Garden is "appointment" only, so make sure to plan accordingly. Though they open at 3, oddly enough their "happy hour" does not start until 4 and runs until 7. They have rotating specials on the happy hour menu. It's nothing crazy, so don't expect huge savings. The inside boasts a very moody, Alice in the wonderland meets garden vibe - Very fun! They have many booths, tables, bar seats and an outdoor patio. I'm sure they can accommodate largish parties, 2-6 seems like the sweet spot. Our server, Shelby was fabulous. She was very sweet, tentative and made sure to help answer any questions or guide us accordingly. She definitely knows her stuff. My friend and I opted for the mushroom tarte and bleu gem salad as our lite bites. The tarte was delicious! Very garlic forward, lots of flavor and pairs perfectly with any cocktail! The salad was also very good, with crispy prosciutto. Though the menu is not huge, they have classic cocktails and then a page of their specialty drinks. We both got a Lyre Harmony, with the lemon zested right at the table. This was both our favorite beverage, with apricot foam. I love some good foam on a cocktail! It was very balanced. My second beverage was The Axe, a elevated version of. Whiskey sour if I had to boil it down. Also very nice, but Lyres Harmony was big winner in my book. My friend has the Turaco and Rabbit Hole as well. Presentation is A plus. Very beautiful drinks and glassware, as well as an atmosphere to match. The reason for four stars is the prices are just a little too steep. Speciality cocktails range from 17-24 dollars. It is a good cocktails, but I have had just as wonderful cocktails at comparable bars and speakeasies that are a bit more affordable. It is worth a visit, but expect to pay accordingly.

The Rose Garden is the perfect spot to catch up with some girlfriends and slowly sip some craft cocktails. The decor is chic and trendy and comfortable. I arrived with some friends on a Saturday evening without a reservation. Since we didn't have a reservation we were seated outside but the table was comfortable and service was still great. If you want inside seating I would definitely recommend making a reservation in advance during the weekend. We ordered the Turaco, Take a Stroll, and Harvest Essence. The Turaco was probably one of the best cocktails I've had, exceptionally balanced and fresh but not too sweet. Take a Stroll was also extremely balanced and unique, with great flavors. Harvest Essence was a strong, smoky mezcal punch, and while still tasty, you would definitely need to love mezcal in order to enjoy this one. The drinks at this spot range from $15-25 or so and they also have light food options as well. We sipped on our drinks over the course of an hour or so and had a great time. Service was excellent throughout our time. I would definitely come back to try out more of their offerings!

We made reservations for a Friday night. We arrived and found no one else in the bar/restaurant. We were ordering food when the sole server said the kitchen is closed and no food was available. We thanked for the info and left. A shame because the menu and atmosphere seemed nice.

The interior was fun and eclectic. Service was pretty terrible. We waited over 30 min trying to find our server to pay our bill. The server who came to help us (not our actual server) did give us a discount for our troubles since she could tell we were annoyed. The drinks were just ok. Nothing amazing and for the price there's several other craft cocktail lounges within walking distance that are better.
