Chef Jay tells me the restaurant, like many businesses in the urban core, is seeing a rash of graffiti vandals.  In fact, so much that the restaurant couldn’t keep up with painting over the all the ugly.  Chef Jay says local artist David Michael Little has some serious street cred, and no tagger in hi/hers right mind would touch this masterpiece.  I think this work is fantastic and wish more businesses would do this in Downtown Phoenix.  What do you think? By the way, NINE 05 has open mic night on Thursdays, and fab food every day of the week.  Check out the menu here and see more of my recommendations of 8 places you should try along the light rail here.
