Food trends come and go. So how can you tell which tastes are trending right this minute?

We took a data-driven look at the question, using Yelp to discover which eateries have been on the tips of diners' tongues this month.

To find out who made the list, we looked at Phoenix businesses on Yelp by category and counted how many reviews each received. Rather than compare them based on number of reviews alone, we calculated a percentage increase in reviews over the past month, and tracked businesses that consistently increase their volume of reviews to identify statistically significant outliers compared to past performance.

Read on to see which spots are worth exploring, right now.

Muse & Market

Open since August, this New American breakfast and brunch spot is trending compared to other businesses categorized as "Breakfast & Brunch" on Yelp.

Citywide, breakfast and brunch spots saw review counts increase by a median of 2.5 percent over the past month, but Muse & Market saw a 32.3 percent increase, maintaining a convincing four-star rating throughout. Moreover, on a month-to-month basis review counts increased by more than 500 percent.

Located at 4602 E. Thomas Road, Suite 110, in Camelback East, Muse & Market offers house-made bowls, sandwiches, small plates and an all-day breakfast with items like its brisket hash, a concoction of 16-hour brisket, sunny-side eggs, truffle aioli and herb potatoes. Coffee drinks and pastries, like its salted chocolate chip cookie, are also up for grabs. (View the menu here.)
