    Beer Battered Fish Tacos
    Gino T.

    In town for our grandsons Cactus Cup Hockey Tournament and we weee between games and needed to grab a bite and catch the NFL games. A short walk from our hotel we wanted to try Arizona style Mexican food. Great atmosphere with indoor dining and patio dining, plenty of TVs showing the early game and great weather today so we dined Al fresco on the patio. Service was great, friendly and ready to help with questions and suggestions. We started with the skillet chorizo fundido with house made chips, I have to say the chips were very good. Light and tasty, fundido was very good. Our entrees came and followed up with more deliciousness. Place had a nice vibe with a DJ playing music during the commercials so we got music and football to accompany our margaritas. Good sized menu offering a variety of appetizers, tacos, burritos and salads. Definitely would come back when we visit Scottsdale Old Town. In my native tongue, molto bene Loco Patron!

    Walked in 85% of the tables were dirty, they may have just had a rush but all the tables as you walked in were full of dirty plates, chips and cups! We sat towards the middle closer to the bar, the young lady came and gave us chips and salsa. The salsa is pretty good here! The chips are a little salty, but nothing to bad. Our waitress came she was super sweet and friendly, we ordered the drunken tacos with rice and Mexican coleslaw. We also got The chips with guac the chips and guac are amazing! The guac is super fresh. The tacos were OK. They fell apart before you even were able to take a bite of them then dipping them in the juice was even harder!! I've had a lot of birria tacos before and the tortillas don't fall apart like that normally! I was a little disappointed in the tacos! The OLE margarita in a can was pretty good!! Not bad for a can!! As we were walking out my husband almost slipped in a knife that was on the floor from the dirty table area when you first walk in. All in all the guac was my favorite!! I'm not sure if I would go back unfortunately. ( I did not take pictures of the front area where the tables were messy) I just took pictures of where we were sitting.

    Food is always pretty good. I love their pork belly tacos and drunken tacos. Their queso (I get a side of habanero salsa to add in) is amazing too. Cadillac Marg is bomb too. Staff is friendly and Tim and Skillet always have great service. On point with the drinks and orders. Overall I do like this place a lot and come often. Ambiance is Mexican cantina with a decent patio. Don't expect fancy but it's nice enough for a taco restaurant.

    Baja Burrito with blackened shrimp
    Teena M.

    The food was so good. we ordered the happy hour og nachos and I loved the beans that came in the nachos: so flavorful! The chips were crisp abs and there was just the right amount of sour cream and guacamole. For our entrees we both ordered the baja burritos his was with blackened shrimp and a salad and mine was with grilled chicken and smothered in their housemade queso sauce. 10/10 The queso sauce had a little heat to it but that's fine with me because I like spicy food. Brittany was our server and she was kind and efficient. The ambiance was typical for a Mexican cantina.

    Outside heated patio does not disappoint!

    This was a great spot in a bustling area during playoff football. It's got a great outdoor seating area that's heated and plenty of tvs. Service was really good considering the amount of people. We had drinks in hand within minutes and appetizers on the table shortly thereafter. We stuck with small plates for most of the evening, wings were great (try the ones with honey on them), as was the queso. Very good spot and very vibrant, stop by for a good tequila selection and notable cocktail menu.

    Best wings!!

    If you're looking for a fun, lively spot in Scottsdale with great vibes, Local Patron on Scottsdale Road is a must-visit. Their outdoor seating area is a standout--it's spacious, equipped with TVs, and opens up to the street, making it perfect for soaking in the Arizona sun and people-watching. The servers are always sweet and friendly but it does get busy so be prepared to wait a bit at peak times. When it comes to the food, their salt and pepper wings are hands-down the best! I always order mine extra crispy, and they never disappoint. If wings aren't your thing, they've got a variety of flavors and an impressive selection of tacos and other dishes to choose from. The laid-back atmosphere and delicious menu make it an ideal spot to kick back, enjoy great food, watch games, and have a good time with friends.

    Char-Grilled Chicken Tenders - on point and the arbol sauce is a fantastic pairing!

    We love this place. Has a good vibe and staff is super friendly and attentive. Plenty of tvs inside and out and really feels like that local home bar. Packers games on Saturday. We usually stop by almost everyday when we are in town. Food is solid all around. Reasonably priced and very good. Taco Tuesdays is fantastic and packer game specials too. Love you guys!

    Came here with a few coworkers for lunch and it was pretty good. It was pretty empty that day, so not sure if we beat the rush or missed the rush. Their system was down too so this post is definitely a one off. Our server was extremely nice and apologetic for the delay, plus we weren't in a hurry so we didn't mind. We all travelled into Scottsdale for a team offsite so we didn't mind the extra time to chat and catch up! I'm such a sucker for chips and salsa and these were so addicting! The salsa was perfectly blended, and the chips were fresh, thin, crunchy, and slightly salted to perfection. I got the fish tacos and it was so good! I was actually so full after! Will definitely come here again if we have a team offsite in Scottsdale!

    Mahi Mahi Tacos with slaw and beans

    We had friends in town and they wanted to experience some bars and restaurants in Old Town so they picked Loco Patron. We stopped in on a Saturday night around 5pm and were told to sit anywhere that had already been bussed. We waited a few minutes and one of the servers was kind enough to quickly clean off a booth for us. The bar was decorated for the holidays days which was nice. There were people of all ages, even families which was also nice. It is a sports bar so they had the tv's tuned into the various games. There was a DJ playing but the music was a a decent level so we could still have a nice conversation. Our server, Dominique, was very nice. For drinks we ordered the skinny Rosa margaritas which everyone liked. The food came out quickly which was great, however, the dinner came out at the same time as the appetizers which was unfortunate. The food server was apologetic for bringing everything at the same time. For appetizers, we ordered wings and cheese curds. The wings were a little soggy so they definitely could have been more crispy but the flavor was good. The cheese curds were good while they were hot. For dinner, we ordered Mahi Mahi tacos that came with a side of spicy slaw. Both were very good. Our friends ordered the steak fajitas, a protein bowl and an order of nachos which they said was fine. I would recommend the Mahi Mahi tacos. Loco Patron is right on Scottsdale Rd so if you sit in the booths or table along the road, you may smell gas fumes like we did. The smell did get to us so we couldn't stick around for an extra cocktail. I would recommend sitting closer to inside or inside the restaurant. Loco Patron has a lot of TV's so it is a good place to catch a game, grab a drink and a bite to eat. It's right on Scottsdale Rd so great for people watching as well.

    Not my first time to this location and surely won't be my last. As we walked in and sat down we were greeted almost instantly. Drinks were amazing as always and the carne asada waffle fries were the best. The restaurant wasn't very busy as they had just opened so it wasn't too loud in there and we were able to have a conversation. The tables were clean and the colorful walls are always fun to look at

    TV's everywhere to take in your favorite team.
    Kayatta K.

    Sweet place with outdoor and indoor seating. The misters are misting so it creates one of the 'coolest' places to take in a fun atmosphere, tremendous food and drinks. Absolutely the best staff I've come across! You're never a stranger at Loco!

    Loco Soft Tacos

    Indoor and outdoor seating area. For someone who was there with my sisters & mom for a late lunch and wasn't there for the sports + socialization aspect, the outside area worked great. It was a seat-yourself option. Even though they were understaffed, I felt like we didn't have to wait long at all, and the waitress was very nice and attentive regardless. Food was good, the fries were very very good!!! Overall good experience.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a high-energy atmosphere that feels like game day every time. There are giant TVs everywhere, a buzzing crowd, and tunes that keep the vibe upbeat and social. You can truly go to Barstool Scottsdale for any occasion on any night. While some nights may be busier than others, you can expect a good time. The drinks are solid and the bartenders know what they're doing, making it a great place to sip classic cocktails or cheers with friends over cold beers. The menu leans into elevated bar fare with plenty of tasty sharables that pair perfectly with a night out, whether you're catching a big game or just kicking off the weekend. What really sets this place apart is how well it blends a sports bar feel with Old Town nightlife energy. It's ideal for groups, celebrations, or anyone who wants a fun, no-pretenses hangout with great views of whichever matchup is on. Crowds tend to be most electric on weekend nights and during major sporting events, so plan accordingly if you want that full party experience.

There were a lot of people sitting in the lounge chairs outside, enjoying the sports games and socializing, and music was loud but not overwhelming on point for a happening sports bar lounge too. So when my friends decided to go here a week or so later I was all for it! It's a really spacious place inside, of course with lots of sports TVs throughout. You hear guys cheering and standing up and fist bumping and all when key plays happen, and it was a great place to be for the World Series games this year. Quite popular on Friday night, and not just for guys too. I wasn't even the hugest fan of Barstool from before or anything but really enjoyed the bar it's a vibe! Oh, and got High Noons here as per suggestion from a friend but they have cocktails here too and the staff are nice (at least the bouncer and bartender I met!)

Unfortunately, I have not heard back. Below is a copy of that email: Good morning, We came in on Saturday, April 4th, 2026 and ordered the Two 4 One Bubbles special. This is something we have ordered frequently in your establishment, most recently on March 8th, 2026. Every time we have purchased this, the Wycliff bottles have been $25. This means that we should receive 2 bottles for $25.01 based on the special listed on your menu. When we received the check, we were charged $50.01 for the 2 bottles. We pointed out the mistake to the bar tender who said the price was correct. We informed her that we have come here approximately once/month for the last year and the cost has never been $50 for a bottle of Wycliff. She asked another employee to come over and we explained the same issue to her. She (we did not get her name) said she has been a Manager there for several years and that has always been the price. I told her we have ordered this special over the last year and we would never pay $50 for a bottle of Wycliff. She refused to adjust our check. I asked her to show me on a menu where a bottle of Wycliff costs $50. Of course, she was not able to do that because it doesn't exist. We generally are very generous with our tip, as we consider this a good deal and the staff is usually great. - I have attached a copy of the receipt. We would like to continue to frequent Mother Tuckers, as we have always had a good time and like to bring friends visiting from out of town. I am hopeful this was an oversight by your employees and a refund will be put back on my credit card for the overcharge.

There is a small parking lot that they share with the coffee shop next door, but it was full and I had to park on the street.

The person working let me sample a few beers before I decided on the Birthday Suit beer. It was delicious! There are food trucks/tents throughout the week, and on this day there was a pizza place. I didn't order one but they did smell and look delicious. There was even a small brick oven! Goldwater also puts on Bend and Brew events with Hot Yoga University when the weather is nice. It is a lot of fun! I can't wait to check this place out again.

My husband and friend enjoyed their beer flights and since I don't drink beer, I was happy to see a cooler with wine and other options such as white claw, etc. the beer was poured directly from the fermenter tank. The staff were very friendly and explained they had to open the wine bottle and make the first pour which was fine with me. We look forward to coming back in the near future.

I let our server know and she immediately took it and said she would make another which was great. I did see her grab a new glass. Unfortunately the new martini tasted exactly the same. Almost like a terrible espresso martini with olive juice. It was not drinkable. Either she didn't know how to make a dirty martini or the olive juice or vermouth went bad. I couldn't stomach the drink and felt nauseous so left it. We ordered a Chef's Board. Cheese selections, plus pepperoni, salami, prosciutto, mixed nuts & fruits, olives and fig jam. They missed the nuts, fruit and olives. The meat and cheese were good but it was a basic board. We should have ordered the pizza instead as everyone around us had a pizza and it smelled delicious. Our first visit was not the best experience, however, we may give it another try and check out the pizza instead.
