    2'26 - chicken strips & fries, good
    Nonie B.

    Heymaker is kind of a hit and miss. I love their chicken strips, but when they come with fries, you have to make sure you ask to have them fresh and hot. Or they come warm/cold. And when they come with the waffles, the waffles are cold. The staff is great

    My family and I visited this location for brunch on Sunday, June 7 at noon, and overall we had a very enjoyable experience. The restaurant is conveniently located in the Verrado area, behind Bashas' and surrounded by other businesses such as Bosa Donuts and Boba & More. There was plenty of parking available in the plaza. We also noticed what appeared to be a weekend farmers market nearby, which added to the atmosphere and made the area feel lively and welcoming. Upon entering, the hostess and staff greeted us warmly and seated us right away. Throughout our visit, the entire team was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent customer service. Our food arrived promptly, and we ordered the Chicken and Waffles, Buttermilk Pancakes with Eggs and Brisket, a Sampler Platter with eggs, sausage, toast and biscuit, as well as the Mimosa Flight. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but there were a few areas that could be improved: * The brisket had great flavor; however, a significant portion of it was very fatty, especially in the middle, which made it difficult to enjoy all of it. * The Chicken and Waffles were good overall, and the waffle itself was delicious. However, the chicken tenders lacked seasoning and were fairly bland. With a little more flavor, this dish would be outstanding. * The Mimosa Flight was visually appealing and provided generous portions. Unfortunately, we could primarily taste the champagne and not much of the individual fruit flavors. We were hoping for a stronger flavor profile from each variety. One nice bonus was their rewards program. If you're not already a member, you can sign up during your visit, earn points on purchases, and receive $10 off your order, which is a great incentive. Despite a few issues with the brisket, mimosas, and chicken seasoning, we had a great brunch experience. The excellent service, welcoming atmosphere, and overall quality of the meal made it a place we would happily visit again. We look forward to returning and hope to see improvements with the brisket quality, more flavorful mimosas, and better seasoning on the chicken tenders.

    Wow! What a nice, relaxing environment. The staff is very pleasant and attentive. I try the croissant sandwich. It included ham, eggs, cheese, spinach, and tomatoes with a side of hash browns. The meal was delicious. There was no way I could finish that whole croissant, but I tried. Lol There are several TVS throughout so that you can catch the game. There is accessible parking and entrance.

    Biscuits and Gravy
    Brandon P.

    The doughnut holes were probably the best food that we ate that morning. The biscuits were light and fluffy but the gravy was Very underwhelming. The chicken was crispy and the waffles had nice texture. The strawberry cream cheese pancakes were good. The star of that dish was the honey butter. The best things we ate today were the appetizer and the honey butter, followed by the biscuit. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Not a great breakfast spot, but not a bad breakfast spot either. *** average food **** above average food at a reasonable price. ***** Unique food. The drive is worth the price.

    We came back for some more. This time for breakfast and once again we had great service and delicious food. This will become a regular spot every time we find ourselves in AZ.

    California omelette
    Stephanie F.

    I've eaten lunch at two different Haymakers in the past and they were not very good, so I was hesitant to try this new one relatively close to my house. My mom's friends had breakfast there and enjoyed it, so I decided to give their breakfast a try. I got the California omelette, which comes with fresh fruit or fried potatoes as a side plus toast or a biscuit. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was!!! The place was nice and clean inside and the service was friendly. Maybe they should be better known for their breakfasts!! I will be back!

    Amazing service by Kaylee . The food was delicious and the drinks cheap and high quality . I really recommend this place if you ever in Verrado and ask for Kaylee if you ever in the area .

    This was our first visit and it didn't disappoint. We had breakfast, which was very good. Our server was attentive and took very good care of us. The restaurant was clean and inviting.

    My "POUND" of brisket for 32-34 bucks . (7oz)
    Jonathan G.

    Ordered a few breakfast items and 1 pound of brisket to enjoy along my omelet. They charged an arm and a leg for it. Over 32 dollars for 1 pound of brisket. And they send me 7 oz. Of brisket NOT EVEN HALF A POUND! Come on haymaker don't be stingy I payed fover full price for that brisket. Very petty of yall. To top it off The brisket was not good and very VERY FATTY.

    I almost hate to leave a review but only because I'm selfish and I don't want anyone else to find…read moreout about it. First, I've never had one of their burgers, I only go for the meat. We go through ~5 pounds of ground beef a week along with other cuts, and theirs is the best. We've been buying their meat for a few years now and I don't care if it's less expensive elsewhere, the quality of theirs is just better. Unfortunately they've had to raise their prices but it's understandable. Everyone has had to raise prices lately. But, like a junkie, they got me hooked. I don't mind really, it's worth the extra cost.

All I can say is: when you worked hard for your money, take your time and gas to visit the place all we want is a good meal without conflict, getting stale, cold fries from a place that literally specializes in burgers and fries just feels disrespectful. We waited for our food expecting it to be fresh only to get cold stale fries in our meal. I normally don't leave reviews, but we felt let down because half the meals I bought ended up being an edible. Le me tell you - if the fries had been fresh this honestly would have been a 5-star experience because the burger was excellent. But the FRIES...the fries why? There's no way those fries came out fresh and hot!

    rudy's country store and barbecue was really good…read more I just wish they had labels on their sauce. Other than that the service was pretty good, we couldn't decide what meat to get, and they gave samples on some of their meats that they had. The ambience had picnic style seating, to go stations if you couldn't finish their generous portions. And lots of wax paper to enjoy your barbecue on

    All the staff was incredibly friendly. The very long line on Sunday afternoon moved at a good pace,…read morebut if you have someone in your party that can't stand for an extended amount of time, send them to sit at a table and order for them. We ordered the moist brisket, pork ribs, and jalapeño sausage. The brisket was good, but had a little too much bark on it for my taste. The pork ribs were not very tender and there was WAY TOO MUCH pepper. The end rib I ate first tasted ok, the other 5 were really over-seasoned. The sausage was good and had a nice kick. I honestly thought I got vanilla pudding until I came across a couple pieces of banana in the bottom of the cup. I think the most disappointing thing for me was the sauce. It was very tomato/vinegar forward. I don't think I've ever been to a bbq joint with only 2 sauces, but I didn't care for either of them. Seating was limited due to the weekend crowd and it was very noisy, so people with hearing aids will want to turn those off.
