My new go-to spot for green chile! This gem offers seating both indoor and outdoor on a rooftop patio! The inside is very dark and much more of an intimate ambiance. Since the weather was nice we opted to sit on the patio. Service was friendly and attentive, i really appreciated that our server (D. Conn ;) ) continued to check on us and fill up our waters even after we finished eating. I went for the street tacos with green chile chicken as my meat choice and they were full of flavor and the perfect amount of spice. I ordered mine lovecraft style-- meaning they were topped with guac and creamy slaw. My friend ordered the green chile stew and added a fried egg on top. The stew was served with fresh tortillas on the side. Both dishes were the perfect amount of food for lunch. Definitely will be back for dinner service!

What a treasure to find! From First step in the door with the mood the decor and lighting sets for you. The flavors in this place you will not find anywhere else. From traditional New Mexican to Barb b que with a wonderful flare.My husband and I travel and are definitely foodies, trust me when I say you will not be disappointed! We will be regulars. Oh and ask for the salsa both red and green soooo savory! Ask to be seated in Dcon's section and let him guide you through the menu and make suggestions based on your taste! The owner should be commended for bringing award winning delicious food to Phoenix! Thanks Dcon for your amazing, attentive service!

Awww. We really like Lovecraft, don't know how we haven't stopped earlier. When you enter, it has a very unexpected speakeasy vibe, given the neighborhood. Definitely an old school feel to the place. We have tried many entrees(they need to bring back the Frito concoction that stole my taste buds on that first visit. Think creamy, spicy, soul-satisfying, crunchy goodness). We have also been in for prime rib night and fried chicken Sunday. The fried chicken is very good, tender, juicy, generous chicken breast strips in a perfect crunchy coating served with two sides and cornbread. Nothing we have had has made us regret a visit. And service is always good, fast, friendly, and helpful.

Hadn't been in a long time. Meeting my friends here for Happy Hour and 1/2 wine bottles. Perfect.. Went upstairs as the weather was amazing. But it's so loud up there. Really can't enjoy it. But it is pretty. Came down to the nice dark dining room. Ordered the watermelon wine spritz. A pop cycle in the sparkling wine. Very fun. Then the appetizers. Queso with brisket. 4 tacos with brisket... and broken nachos... with.... You guessed it... brisket. I swear... it is incredible. 3 bottles later...I can't wait to return!! Love the vibe...

It's been a hot minute since we came to Love Craft.. but that's because if I eat here once I must eat here 3 more times and well that's not great for my waistline. Order a sassy berry mocktail it was scrumptious! We started with the guac and queso. The queso always hits it out of the park for me. I wanted to get the prime rib quesadilla but ended up with my go to of the brisket chimi with the queso on the side. Everything was great and the service was wonderful.

Just tried this place for the first time and it was SO YUMMY! This was highly recommended by our friends. Our waiter Dave was very kind and attentive. We sat on the rooftop which was such a nice ambiance especially with the weather being better. I loved my chimichangas and portions were excellent. I'm absolutely coming back and making this a go to spot!!

This is a great little bar with AMAZING food. Met a friend here. Very dark. Lots of wood and curtains. Service CE was spot on. I had the Sheppard pie and it was phenomenal. Totally get it! I hope to be back.

We stumbled into this odd little place and wow we loved it! Walking in its DARK! And we honestly didn't know what to expect. We sat at the bar and we had a great experience. They have a huge beer list and many speciality cocktails. Both margaritas we had were awesome and it's obvious they use quality alcohol. We also got the hatch green chili burger and the brisket tacos. Both were good but I was hoping for more spice with the green chilis as they warned it was going to be hot. I can't wait to come back and visit again when on this side of town.

We thought it was interesting that Arizona had New Mexican cuisine, being that we're from New Mexico we decided to give it a shot. The patio had a really nice ambiance, the drinks were good, and the Mac and cheese with brisket was really really good. It was excellent in fact. The rest of the food wasn't so great and honestly none of it tasted like authentic New Mexican cuisine. Where were the hatch chilies? The service was friendly but sometimes took a while to attend us. I would come back here again for the drinks and Mac and cheese without the expectation that it's New Mexican food.
