In my ~10 years of visiting Phoenix, 5 of which i've been legally allowed to drink, I've never once been to downtown Phoenix [minus going to a D'backs game in my high school age]. I was quite surprised at the sparsity of stuff to do around, and then all of a sudden a small bright light of hope around where Bitter & Twisted sits. Quite nice little hipster bar with quite strong drinks [they'll hit you when you least expect it]. Was a little disappointed in the small plates offering, but with a focus on drinks, it's expected. If you're hungry, get the Ramen Burger - holy hell is it delicious! I'd never had a non-burger burger before. Innovative place for an emerging downtown Phoenix.
