Phoenix, AZBest Bruschetta
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then the most flattered place in town is Postino Wine Café, an action-packed neighborhood wine bar that's all about effortless cool. There's no attitude here, just a stylish vibe and craveable wine-friendly nibbles. The bruschetta, in particular, is outstanding, something many local wine bars have attempted to re-create (right down to the nearly identical toppings) but none has succeeded in matching. Ten delectable combinations, plus an ever-changing seasonal option, make it really hard to choose, but luckily each order comes with a choice of four. From simple smoked salmon or roasted artichoke hearts to more complex toppings like prosciutto with figs and mascarpone, and white Tuscan bean with pancetta, each one is memorable, served atop slices of fresh crusty bread. Folks can't get enough of this bruschetta, and now Postino's ready to meet the demand. Early in 2009, expect a second location in the renovated building that once housed Katz's Deli.

Positino's ranks as one of my favorite places to hang out in the Valley of the Sun, when I visit. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about the food and wine. Happy hour is everyday (I think it might actually exclude Sat/Sun) from 11A to 3P with $5 glasses of wine. This is a GREAT and inexpensive way to sample new wines and develop your wine palette. The ambiance is probably what keeps me coming back. Located in the Arcadia area, it sits in a residential neighborhood (it was an old postoffice building.) It is off the beaten path and holds a casual elegance that is quite nice when having a great conversation with friends. The food? I've never had a bad experience with their food. My favorite is the choice of bruschetta. But their sandwiches and soups are equally appetizing.
Price: $$
Tip: Happy Hours brings alot of tanned hunnies.

Female / Los Angeles, CAThis converted post office is a great place for lunch or dinner. The menu isn't huge, but they have great sandwiches, small plates and a good wine selection. It is usually pretty crowded and lively and really fun when the nights get warm in Phoenix, as one wall of the restaurant is completely open.
