Looking for a good bar or restaurant to stop at during your light rail trip? Here are a few of our faves.

Alexi's Grill

Alexi's Grill

3550 N. Central Ave. - Phoenix
602-279-0982

If you’re looking for a fancy place downtown to go for a business lunch, Alexi’s Grill is your place. The restaurant features top-notch servers and elegant food choices, focusing on Italian but with a Southwestern flair. Try the sirloin pasta ($13.95), grilled steak on penne pasta, covered in a tomatillo sauce. Dinner entrees include chicken, shrimp, fish, steak and pork dishes, while the lunch menu features generous portions at cheaper prices as well as selections such as pita sandwiches.

Kobalt

3110 N. Central Ave., Suite 125 - Phoenix
602-264-5307

The black leather couches and strong martinis put gay men and women in the mood for mingling at this central-Phoenix spot. There always is something going on here, including trivia games, live performances and Jell-O wrestling. Show off your singing skills during karaoke on Tuesdays and Sundays, or watch flashback movies on plasmas screens Fridays and Saturdays.

Club Central

3110 N. Central, Suite 140 - Phoenix
602-200-8121

Nestled in a cozy corner of Park Central, this bi-level club brings in some of the best jazz and blues musicians in the nation. A dress code is strictly enforced on Friday nights, when the first floor gets packed for karaoke and a DJ spins R&B and hip-hop tunes upstairs. Think you’re funny? See if others agree on Wednesdays, open-mike comedy nights.
