When PHX Rail Food started in 2007, Mill Avenue was one of the region’s most varied and lively dining districts. Now, it’s among the least. It will be interesting to see if new restaurants can bring it back to life after the loss of so many longtime favorites. www.phoenixnewtimes.com/restaurants/...

After a brief pause for content updates to reflect system expansion, we're back on track with this week's review: A non-prissy princess serving pitas and platters in northwest Tempe: phxrailfood.com/2025/06/28/p... #phoenix

When light rail on South Central was debated in 2019, Poncho’s was an epicenter of opposition in South #Phoenix. It was therefore great to see the restaurant at opening events and busy during lunch. The white pozole with chicken is worth the short walk from the end of the line at Baseline/Central.

Today’s the day: After five years of construction, the South Central Extension will open for service at 9:30 AM. Here are some places to eat along its 5.5 miles of track in South #Phoenix and the Warehouse District: phxrailfood.com/tag/south-ce...

New restaurant reviews are currently paused so that existing site content can be revised to reflect the opening of the South Central extension on June 7 and the transition from a single line to a two-line system. Publication of new reviews will resume in June.
