PHX: Downtown suggestions please (no car!)

My husband is attending a conference based at the Hyatt on N. Second Street starting September 9th. I need to plan a Sunday lunch and a Wednesday lunch (both will be around 1:30) as well as dinners for Saturday through Wednesday nights (fairly early - around 6:00). Full bar is preferred. Beer/wine a must. Our budget is moderate ($8 to 15 entrees) and our party size will range from 3 to 6 people, mostly men aged 40 to 50. I can get them to splurge on a taxi a few times and from what I have read here these need to be for Phoenix Ranch Market/Tradiciones and the Fry Bread House. They will accept a wait only if there is a bar available for that purpose. Need to stay fairly mainstream - nothing too exotic. We hail from North Carolina. I would really appreciate any suggestions! Thanks
