Reviews of Café Allegro (Museum)

Alice Cooperman

Tasty, creative menu. Relatively inexpensive for a museum.

This Cafe is located inside the Musical Instrument Museum and you do not need to pay entrance to the museum to eat here. There is a small cafe at the front for coffee, tea, drinks and a few small bites open during museum hours while the restaurant at the back serves only at lunchtime (currently 11:30 to 2:30pm). What I love most is that the restaurant sources their food locally so you can try different local treats like goat milk fudge, Hayden Mills flour cookies, ice cream from Gilbert, etc. I picked up a local farm box here at the cafe on a weekly basis and know they are very welcoming whether you or a museum patron or not. It also has a beautiful outdoor patio where you can eat or just relax. It's a little secret place I share with friends visiting. Of course the museum is amazing, but if museums aren't your thing or you just want to try something much healthier and more unique than the chain restaurants at Desert Ridge be sure to check out the cafe.

Good food

Dennis McDaid

There's a whole bunch of great restaurants up the block. Don't go here. The food is tough and bland.

Excellent food, well prepared and always fresh. Very much in line with the overall experience of the wonderful Phoenix's Musical Instrument Museum

The Best Arizona Burger I had ! Appreciate the healthy side options. Recommend to eat by 12 if museum is busy that day. Nice outdoor seating options, for those of us who hate being inside all day. At back of restaurant area free water and ice available , drinks are priced high, but I thought all other foods reasonable, especially considering the high quality.

Great burger, and very good veggie gluten free burger. Served cafeteria style. Everything cooked fresh and brought to your table. Reasonable prices. Worth eating here while visiting MIM

Great museum. The have a unique scheme where you can listen to instruments without intervening with other visitors. Make sure to reserve time for hands-on experience room.

Went to a David Cook concert there. The facility was great. The seat was comfortable. However, the idiots 2 rows in front of up stood up the entire concert. The weren't young rock and rollers but a 50+ year old guy with wife and 2 kids. He never even tried to dance, just stood there. They never sat down, ever. There was an older woman and young girl sitting right behind them & they saw nothing of the performers. I could see the performers from the head up. WOW!! I think there should be some level of courtesy applied by patrons that attend and if they aren't then the attendants should step in and do something. Never going back there to see anyone that would bring these kind of patrons.

The food is made on the premises and it's all delicious.

What a great food(soups) we discovered in MIM in PHX. Seating had a great view and very quiet surrounding.

This is a must see!! Musical Instruments from all over the world. The Artist gallery has artifacts from Taylor Swift, Johnny Cash, Elvis, Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Denver, and many more!!! The mechanical music room was intriguing and the Experience room was truly cathartic!! Ages 6,13,46,76,84 in our party and everyone loved it!!!

Amazingly interesting museum. I had no idea what to expect and was truly amazed. One of the most clever audio tours I've ever seen and the information provided was absolutely vast. I am planning a return trip next week. Love it! !!!
