The staff were nice and very friendly so no problem with the service. The place was decorated nicely as well, though I didn't get a chance to see the climbing wall. The food was okay. We got the Spinach Artichoke Dip as an appetizer and was served with tortilla chips and cheesy garlic bread. The dip itself tasted okay, but very mayonnaise-y. It kinda reminded me of cheesy baked mussels. The amount of dip they give you is little compared to the amount of chips and bread you get. The bread doesn't really taste that garlicky and just has cheese on it which is fine. My mom got the Elvis Calzone, which was fine. It wasn't spectacular. It's kind of hard to mess up a calzone. I got the Mushroom Swiss Burger. It came with beer battered waffle fries. The burger was whatever. It didn't have much flavor to it except for the char on the patty and was very greasy. The fries were delicious and I think the ranch they have is really nice. read more

Service left much to be desired. It was slow and quiet on a Saturday evening; seemed like a big party had left and there were a few patrons sitting at the bar. As Kyle H. mentioned, the QR code to the menu requires you to download an app to view it. There are paper menus, however, our server brought it over to our table after ~5 minutes. He did take our order but was confusing when we mentioned we had ordered wings on the app and that he could enter the rest of our order on the app. The pineapple express burger was good but I was expecting grilled pineapple rings, not grilled pineapple pieces (maybe I misread the menu?). There also didn't appear to be any teriyaki sauce as mentioned but not the biggest deal. My burger was cooked medium well as requested, although some sections were more charred. read more

This is a sports bar restaurant. and a pretty good one. Service was outstanding. Food was served promptly. My burger was very good, with a pretzel bun and fries. Food is not exceptional but it is good for what it is--a sports bar restaurant. read more

I like this place. They have pretty decent food for bar food imo. The servers are always friendly when I go there. The karaoke night may be too loud for you if you are looking at a place to sit and chit chat. read more

Place opens till 2am. For a late arrival into Mesa and hungry, this was close to the hotel and the food was good. The place was fairly Packed with people mostly having drinks and cocktails. Oh and Did I mention there was Karaoke? Yes and the people sang well and there's even a Karaoke DJ that moved things along fast and even sings. They have I heard 20 beers on tap. The tasty deluxe pizza with homemade pizza dough was full of meat and vegetables! Had a well made and tasty Natchos! read more

Since it has been a few years since my last review, here is an updated review of this establishment. Everything written about the trivia still stands and it is a rather fun activity to do with friends. It happens two times a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM. If you place in the top three during any of the sessions you still get the same amounts of money to use during your next visit (1st = $15, 2nd = $10, 3rd = $5). Usually this is enough for appetizers for the group, just tell the server you have a voucher to use. They also have Karaoke on Tuesdays from 9:00 PM to 11:55 PM. Parking hasn't changed. It is still plentiful but sometimes when the place is crowded you may have to park further into the plaza to find a spot. Tacos are still $3 on Tuesdays and the variety also hasn't changed. It still consists of pork, shrimp, fish, beef, however it no longer comes with a side of chips and salsa. The menu is still vast and has something for everyone. Even though I come here almost weekly, I still haven't managed to try every single item on the menu. They also sometimes add new items to the menu so if you like trying new things, then seeing that is a nice touch. Also take heed this is a bar so the food is bar food so a lot of things are fried, are carb heavy, and/or are finger foods. There are some salads too (they're pretty tasty) for those wanting to eat a bit healthier. Boulders also uses the Union app now for ordering, in which you can either pay through your phone or ask the server for the check. I find this pretty useful because you can either scan the QR code on the table or if you have friends already seated and you're on the way, you can ask them for the table number and order ahead on the app so that your food is ready for you when you arrive. The service is still impeccable. The servers are all still very nice and friendly. Overall, still a great place! read more

Good food well priced and well prepared. Ask about their coconut curry ice cream Awesome. read more

Ah digital menus that require you to download an app. I guess it is cool but it takes away from interacting with your server. Server would have taken order if so desired and server kept up with drinks. Maybe I'm just getting old. Food was ok. Fish and chips were good. Fish, a tad hot though. Side salad was good as well, albeit small. Maybe I'm just getting fat. read more

Walked in and decided to try because I live near by but left instantly because it smells. So bad I moved to a different table and still couldn't get the smell of sewage out of my nose. Why would I want to eat/drink here when it smells like that. read more

We saw the Yelp photo with daily specials but we were told there an old photo which was disappointing. The menu surprisingly doesn't have any prices so we looked these up online before ordering since that's an important criteria to consider. We came here for the cheesy beefy dip sandwich. I love to try French dips everywhere that seems good enough to stop and try. We asked for the sandwich without peppers but our sandwich came with them anyway. The sandwich flavor was pleasant but there was a lot of extra bread without fillings. The waffle fries made the meal more enjoyable though. They were a pleasant addition to the sandwich and I would definitely eat them again. I also saw they have karaoke on Wednesdays and trivia during the week as well, that's pretty cool. read more

Amazing food! Best calzone I ever had. The dough and sauce are stand-outs. I'm never disappointed.

We have loved coming here for years and continue to love it! Dog friendly patio let's us bring our baby with us while we enjoy football and amazing food and beer selections! The pizza is our go-to and the fried artichoke hearts! We never seen fried artichoke anywhere before it's playfully far the best idea! If you haven't been 100% recommend! Ask for Kyle he is friendly and accommodating, was just on it! read more

I visited Boulders on Southern for the first and possibly the last time. It could have been that it wasn't really the place I wanted to dine or that I wasn't hungry OR that I ordered the wrong thing, but I just wasn't that impressed. I ordered the Papas Bravas which I don't recommend mostly because there's nothing special about them, you could literally make these at home. Our server was really nice and during the time that I went, it wasn't that busy. read more

Enjoyed a good time with a wonderful woman there. Service and the food was fantastic. We met one of the owners--a super kind guy. He ensured our food and service were excellent. I recommend Boulders on Southern. Their shrimp tacos were amazing, and so were the crispy fried pickles. read more

Love this place always feel comfortable and welcomed! It's definitely my go to few times a week to catch games! I like the burgers and pizza nuggets ! Cheese curds are great for an app ! They have variety of draft beers always rotating ! TVs all around so u are sure to be able to catch the game u came for ! It's my home away from home I highly recommend checking it out ! Cheers ! read more

Another good time at Boulders. Saturday night is Rock Trivia. Very fun. Not the usual bar trivia. If you're not playing, you don't even notice is going on. Staff is awesome. Very diverse crowd. If you feel unwelcome at other places, your welcome here. When a woman feel comfortable going in and sitting at the bar by herself, that's a safe, relaxing place. Almost forgot. The food is great!! We usually get Pizza. Thick is great but we usually thin. It's super thin and SUPER good!!! read more

When I'm here it's late. This is your typical tavern. Bar neighborhood bar plenty room, dartboard pool tables it's very chill. No one bugged you. You can just relax and do you think pizzas are very good for a barpizza food great i'm not wearing my glasses so God help us all. I can't see what I'm writing. bartenders are great Dave and David. I will be back in six months when I get back from Panama. read more

The service was excellent. The food was average. My sons each got pizza. I got a sandwich and husband got a sandwich and we started with pizza nachos. Pizza nachos were a bit out there but they worked. I liked the chips and it just went together. The pizza first let me say deep dish pizza should be thick not thin pizza with the dough flattened against the side. Elvislives deep dish misses the mark. It is not deep dish to start with. It didn't appear to have any cream cheese sauce on it. The Canadian bacon was extra salty along with the capers and you really needed the pineapple to cut the salt. Crust needs help. The Hawaiian island was about what you would expect. Deep dish was definitely not deep and the crust is blah. Otherwise the pizza was about what you would expect. Cheesy beef sandwich was ok. It seemed on the small side but it was enough for me I don't remember what other sandwich we had but it was on the small side as well Our server was wry friendly and helpful. Make sure to bring cash or be charged to use your card. read more

Went here with some friends on a Sunday night around 6 pm. We pulled up and saw a hearse in the parking lot. I like Halloween, but that's just strange at a restaurant. It looked dark inside. We wondered if the place was even open. We went inside and the place had a pretty bad smell (as other reviews have stated). I am not sure if it was sewage or cauliflower, but it was disgusting. Since we were meeting friends, we stayed and waited for them to arrive to have dinner. There was only a one other table with people and a couple of guys at the bar. I think there were only 2 employees working (the manager? And server). The sign said to seat ourselves, so we sat in a booth. If you want to see a menu you need to use the QR code or request it. Even still, the drinks are only available with the QR code. Our friend asked for a regular menu, since he doesn't like QR codes and viewing the menu on the phone. Our server was nice, but had a punk rock vibe to him. Maybe it was his hearse? Regardless, he did a good job overall, but I think he was annoyed with all our questions. Our food took a long time to get to us. The place only had our table of four and the two guys at the bar now. We didn't order anything overly complicated. Burgers, wings and drinks. The food was just ok. It was nothing special. The happy hour prices were good though. As we tried to talk with our friends over dinner the TV got louder and louder. Every commercial got even louder. We could hardly hear each other talk. We asked if they could turn down the TV, but our server said no because people were watching the game. We didn't understand, since there was only 2 people at the bar and it didn't need to be that loud. At the end, we got our bill with an additional charge for using a credit card. I really dislike it when businesses do that to their customers. Put it in the cost in the food charge, so customers don't have to see it. The whole experience there was a turn off. We would not return to this location or the other locations associated with this business. It's surprising this place is still open and has so many good reviews. read more

If you're finding it a challenge to have a late evening bite, then look no further than Boulders on Southern. It's a bar with a raucous atmosphere offering games, karaoke, sports, trivia. However, we've eaten several meals and have yet to be disappointed. Burgers cooked to order, sweet potato tots are hot and crispy, while tender on the inside. Spicy offerings are plentiful. Flavorful calzones. Steak in the steak and walnut salad was perfectly cooked to order. Good and attentive service. read more

My favorite neighborhood bar for soooooo many reasons. For starters, the staff knows how make you feel welcome and make fun of you like you're family all at the same time. Lots of laughs are had. They have a great rotating selection of craft beers, seltzers, and ciders and offer happy hour specials plus 1/2 off craft beer bottles and cans on Thursdays (some terms apply like it has to be a different brew each time). But the main inspiration for my review is the food. I mean seriously, bar food shouldn't be this good. They have a thoughtful selection that in many regards feels chef inspired. And they execute on quality. Good to note is they also have some killer happy hour specials.... My recommendations? Crispy Fried Artichokes ($4.99 at happy hour) Shishito Peppers ($4.99 at happy hour) Korean BBQ Mini Tacos (10 for $5.99 at happy hour) THE WINGS! So many delicious flavors (Market Price) and the PIZZA! ($18 average price for 14"). The pizza has a gourmet feel and the topping selections leave you wanting for nothing. My favorite is the Hard Day - Andouille Sausage, Bacon, Garlic, and fresh basil. Note though, the deep dish is not really deep, more like regular. The thin crust is like cracker crust...both are yummy. And if you still need more reason to check em out, head up on a Monday when all pizzas are 50% off. I will add, they also do a Taco Tuesday where all tacos are $3. I have yet to try the tacos but they look delicious too. read more

First time here & the food was amazing!! Got the wings, waffle fries and fried pickles! The best I've ever ate in this area! The service was great also. Very nice and professional. Ambiance was not what I expected! (Good thing) it's a different vibe to sit in and I love it!!! read more

We went to dinner at Boulders - we were looking for a place close to the hotel we were staying at. We scored well with our pick ! The food, service, and atmosphere were all great. We had the cheesy beef sandwich - great ! The waffle fries were also great. It wasn't too busy, but we were there early on a Friday. The couple we were there with had the burger and they said it was great also. Definitely would return to the Boulders when in the area again. The menu is quite large and many items that I would like to try. read more

We haven't had pizza in a very long time and this one hit the spot. This sports bar had a very cool vibe inside with a moderate noise level and a pool table too. The staff was friendly alrhough over taxed, so service suffered a bit. We chose to sit outside on the patio for a quieter dining experience since apparently I'm "getting old" and my hearing suffers in moderately noisy environments. However, for people who want to be on their phone and not have to talk to their spouse this would be perfect! This pizza was really kinda' thin considering it was a "deep dish" and they were rather skimpy on the toppings i.e. of the 8 slices, only 4 had sausage... again; I'm "getting old" so at my age we notice how many lumps of sausage there are, how many pepperoni are sparsely scattered around the edge and that the black olives are only in the center area of the pizza...grrrr. However, we were hungry, the flavor was good and we were outside so service was quite sparse... so we ate rather than request more toppings. The dough / crust was really good and tasted homemade and when it was served in the deep dish pan, it was piping HOT which we loved! So the big question: will we be back? Yes, but will ask for proper toppings when we order the pizza. read more

Best pizza I have had in ages. The crust was just a little crispy and not soggy, like so many other thinner crust pizzas. veggies were fresh, cheese to sauce ratio perfect. Ordered the 9 inch thin crust ...we saw others with deep dish, which looked amazing as well. service great and we loved 80's rock bingo. What a fun time with great food read more

Hello from Texas! Just had a quick visit here while in town and had a blast with my brother. Wednesday nights are apparently karaoke nights and the singers and song choices were on point! Tried their korean tacos and the chuck norris pizza with a few of their beers on tap and i gotta say everything, including their service, was great. This is a great place to check out if you're looking for a spot to hang out that's open later than 12am. read more
