I want to start off with the positives 1st: 1. They atmosphere is very nice, it's all about the 50's including a car & old gas station pump. 2. The service was great, our waitress was very friendly, courteous & attentive she is the only reason why I gave this review 3 stars. FYI My wife & I ate everything but we were absolutely starving when we got there. Now for the negatives: Before I list them I want to let you know we may have made a mistake ordering the fish fry, it could possibly be that they have really good food but the negatives are just based on the fish fry, drink and dessert we ordered only so take it just for that and make your own opinion. 1. The fish although juicy was tasteless, the breading they used for the batter had no taste at all. 2. The french fries were limp not at all crispy, totally soggy full of grease(or whatever they use). 3. I had a Arnold Palmer which had no taste, it was more like water with a drop of lemon. I even thought it was water when the waitress served it to me, I was disappointed. My wife that was served a mojito seemed watered down, very little alcohol in it, no flava she was disappointed. 4. We had a churro cheese cake it was OK the cheese cake was super dense could be lighter, lots of Carmel, I believe they used churro for the crust but it was all crumbled, lots of cinnamon, nice but I'd give it a 6/10 could be better. Ultimately the waitress needs to look at what she serves before serving it. I find had she done that and asked herself would I eat or drink this she should have stopped it at the bar or kitchen and had it redone. So although I praised our waitress this is something she should have checked before bringing these to us. My wife and I will return and try another round here in the future something other then the fish fry and if it's better I will amend this review appropriately.

We have been frequenting a lot of restaurants in Cave Creek stopped in for dinner at Heart & Soul.  We thought the restaurant was closed, we've driven past it before NOT realizing that the restaurant has 2 entrances.  One is the saloon side and I'm not sure what the other side is called.  On this night, we almost kept on driving by again, thinking that the "saloon" was closed. Once inside it was a nice surprise to see that the band was warming up.  The restaurant had a limited menu, I wish I would've been able to take a picture, the selections were AMAZING! We decided on a wedge salad with a side of chicken, wings, and a BBQ Burger.  The food was amazing!! We will have to come back to try the unique pizza selections, yes PIZZA at a saloon. We were very pleased with the service, overall a 5-star visit. And the band was okay. Give them a try if you're ever in Cave Creek, it's worth the drive if you don't live near the restaurant!

Made a trip to this great restaurant for breakfast and, while they were almost full, they got us in quickly. I have to be gluten and dairy free since my last visit :( so I didn't know what I could enjoy. I was/am So Thankful they had gluten free pancakes and there was a hash dish that I was able to adjust so I could enjoy it without cheese. I didn't even miss it!! My niece is vegetarian and my husband is diabetic but they had something for everyone! Fabio was our server and has been in the past. He doesn't even write down our orders...as detailed as they are with our dietary differences. He just Remembers! Amazing! He's also helpful and attentive! Need to come here more often!

My wife and I tried Heart & Soul Cafe on a Saturday morning. Though it is a small restaurant they had no trouble seating us right away. The service was nice and timely. We had a hard time deciding what to get because everything looks good. I ordered the breakfast wet burrito and it was delicious. Very impressed with the green chili. My wife ordered the chilaquiles and loved it! The coffee was a little weak and not at the same level as the food. Overall, a great place for breakfast or brunch!

I waited 45 minutes to an hour to be waited on and by the time somebody came over around noon, they denied me lunch, I wanted to try their chicken wings stating lunch doesn't start until 1 pm which I thought was weird. So I ordered 1 blueberry pancake which took another half hour to arrive at my table and the bottom of the pancake was burned and didn't seem like they were that busy. This place got good reviews which is why I stopped by to try it out and I experienced the opposite. Would not recommend it. The atmosphere and aesthetics were pretty cool, though.

We've been to this cafe twice now. This time, I ordered the Arizona burger, cooked medium. The restaurant was almost empty, but it still took forever to get our food. Then my burger was burned on the outside and very rare on the inside. Since we were short on time by now, I didn't send it back. The decor is very interesting, but the bad food and slow service will keep us from going back.

Stopped here for brunch, and it was fantastic. The menu had something for everyone. Potion sizes for both kids and adults were large. The staff were friendly and efficient. I initially wasn't excited when I saw the tutor tots...BUT they tasted homemade and were extremely crispy and delicious! Would eat here again.

  • Michael Messick-Wardell

Not so good. Chips and cheese dip we're just okay. The dip could have been hotter I and more creamy versus Lumpy. Hamburger was cooked to perfection but not too specifications. Meaning leaving off sauces and such that were requested to be put on the side. French fries were not hot as requested. Will give it another chance at another time. Maybe then they'll work out the Kinks. Appears to be under new ownership.

Dropped by Heart and Soul Cafe for a business breakfast and it was a hit! The food was top-notch, bursting with flavor, and the service was quick on their feet, making sure our morning meeting went without a hitch. The atmosphere struck just the right note of lively and cozy, making it the perfect backdrop for a productive start to the day. Definitely a gem worth returning to!

Stopped by here to have breakfast with a friend. Had the Crazy Cowboy. The gravy and the green sauce was excellent. The chicken fried steak was crisp and tasty. We also split a tamale. The red sauce had an abundance of flavor with a nice amount of heat. So glad we ate here. Nice surprise to find such outstanding food on a spur of the moment decision.

Great breakfast spot with friendly and efficient service, a clean and well-maintained restaurant, and a great menu. The Mexican Burrito is one of the best breakfast burritos I’ve had! My husband got the chilaquiles and thought those were great, and my parents have been here numerous times and said they’ve never been unsatisfied.

Not a great experience. I had French toast, which was almost burnt with little flavor. I sent it back and they redid my order, a lighter brown. My husband ordered the stuffed poblano breakfast. It was Luke warm. Perhaps because we were the first to dine that morning.

We want to like it. The food was ok, the price a little high, service atrocious. Everyone had long waits to get water. Comments constantly going about the service. Customers had to get up and go ask for silverware, after being served food. Having to go grab salt and pepper, syrup, etc off other tables. Hopefully it was just an off day. More

Amazing experience for New Year’s Eve! The lively atmosphere, fantastic live music, and attentive staff created the perfect vibe. What a memorable New Year’s Eve celebration; this bar/saloon has it all. Thank you!

The food was fresh and delicious. I chose a chicken salad and I told them to not put salt in my food. Since my body has a bad reaction to sodium. They listened. So simple things like this meant a lot to me. All in all, every worker was approachable, attentive & kind. The music was lively!

  • C Hall

Great place and we love the retro decor. Food was delicious. SERVER WAS FRIENDLY and very pleasant. We sat in the 50'scar inside and had lunch.. Very nice place. We have had breakfast on our last visit and it was equally nice.

The food was decent, it was nothing impressive but edible. It was fried steak with eggs. However the service was below average, many of the service staff seemed like they did not want to be there. Furthermore, they seemed to lack adequate

Heart & Soul is the best of both worlds! My husband and I went for a late breakfast on Saturday. The food was delicious, and the service was top notch! Even though we ate breakfast we could not pass up the desserts. WOW! The key-lime pie
