We have just returned home from brunch today, now mind you we have been going to switch for years, one of our favorite places to eat, now we live in far north Phoenix and drive down for a good meal, not today! We arrived just after noon and there was a little it of a wait, but that is expected for good food, which was not the case. We ordered our favorite appetizer the Baked lobster and crab puffs, sad to say that they were very fishyand not up to par, we have had these many times in the past and are usualy amazing, but not this time. The mains were the Jalisco panini, the club and the breakfast sandwich off the brunch menu, Now the Jalisco came out and was what seemed to be cheep deli sliced chicken, and pre-packed avocado on the sandwich, despite the jalipanios it was very bland, the club came out not even what you would thing a club would be, it was just a grilled turkey sandwich. The breakfast sandwich looked good but on the other hand was quit the contrary. Now to the part that sparked this review. We were ther for my husbands, and friends birthday, we ordered the chocolate chip cookie dough, as a birthday desert, witch is usualy the crowning point on the meal, not today it was the the best part of the meal by far but was still not the norm.\r

Now I don't know if the kitchen was asleep or hung over but it was to total miss on the food. The wait saff was good and friendly but seemed to be out of sorts. Even to the fact we were brought food that was to be brought to the table next to us.\r

I am thinking it is time to start looking for a new brunch location, and will not be recommending this place to anyone. Now they say it is not about advertising but word of mouth, and I have a big mouth. Sad to say that Switch used to be a destination eatery, but at this point still open only on what the name Switch used to bring to mind as far as food and service, but as most restraunt's after being open for years start to only be a name with a distant memory of great food. \r

Sad after years, we are going to start looking for a new brunch location.
