Visiting phoenix for a week and looking for some recs

Hey, flying to phoenix/Tscuon today for about a week and would like like some recommendations for places to eat ( in general ) and general points of interests.

We would also like to check out some nerdy stores in general in our visit espically some card/ game stores.

I also happening to be celebrating my b day down there so any places that do birthday things would be appreciated as well.

Me and my partner were potentially thinking of moving here bc family in the area but wanted to check out the area before making any decisions. We are from the pnw so it will be a different climate than were used to for sure.

Thank you for responses
