Now open: Social Box Neighborhood Eatery in Chandler

A few weeks ago, I wrote about Social Box Neighborhood Eatery, the new concept taking over Iguana Mack’s on Alma School, between Warner and Ray, in Chandler.

The new concept, you may recall, combines what it’s calling “elevated comfort food” with community stewardship. Social Box will donate a portion of its revenue each month to local non-profits.

Today, Social Box has its soft opening.

(Pictured: Chicken and waffles sandwich with bacon, cheddar, pickle, house “sause,” and side of sweet potato fries, $11.)

Dinner entrees seem especially reasonably priced. A 12-ounce ribeye steak is $16, short rib au poivre $14, and honey-seared chicken $11. All include two sides.

Brunch, served 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, features brioche French toast ($11), quesadillas con huevos ($9), California omelets ($9), and more.

The drinks menu offers wine, beer, and cocktails. Happy hour, 2-6 p.m. weekdays, includes $1 off bar drinks and $2 off apps, wine, and house drinks.

Social Box is open for lunch and dinner daily.
