    Blood orange margaritas

    Food and drinks = good Service = bad We hadn't been here in quite a while, with all the new restaurant options nearby. The food and drinks were just as good as I remember, but we had really poor service today. We ordered several items off the happy hour menu and thought the chips and salsa/queso would be brought out right away to enjoy with our margaritas, but we kept waiting and waiting ... nope. Everything came out at once and it was brought out by two other people. Our waiter checked on us to see how it looked right after we got it, then he never came back ... not to see if we want another drink, more water, or more chips (which we needed since we still had queso). We had a table of empty dishes and glasses at 5:00 and didn't get our check until 5:20, and that was after flagging him down. And the thing is, it's not a big place, so I don't know why we were ignored. Also, we were charged for salsa, so technically we should have been given another bowl of chips since that price was for "chips and salsa." Very disappointing experience, especially when you're spending a lot of money. Although it's good food we don't plan to go back.

    Service was good . Our dinner was great. The Shrimp Diablo was extra , extra delicious . Our server said this was his favorite

    We had a unconfirmed reservation which made it a bit tricky to get a table right away but we were seated within minutes of our arrival. The menu was a newer menu that was missing some items my family had eaten on a previous occasion, such as the birria, but they still came through with the orders and in a timely fashion. Meals were served within 15/20 mins of ordering and the portions aren't overly large or too small to make you feel hunger soon after eating. Everything tasted wonderful, fresh and flavorful. The restaurant was hopping by the time we left around 6 pm. It's loud with a lot of customers just as a heads up.

    Food was delicious and flavorful. I had the plantains with Guacamole. I wish I took a pic before I dug in. Also the De Jalisco Old Fashion was soo good. Sweet and spicy.

    Omelette

    Sunday morning after church, there was no wait. The service was a little slow and food was just ok. Very minimalist set up. We sat on the patio. They took our drink order and we started with coffee. The cups were decent size but not much creamer and only a few packets of sugar. We didn't see waitress much. The presentation of the food just didn't add any pizzazz. Overall it was quick for a seat and ok food. The high light was the Oaxacan smoked margarita.

    It's a cute place that's bright and has high ceiling and comfy chairs. It's a bit loud. Service was great and food was good. I had the short rib enchiladas and ymmo.

    Spicy omelet

    Came today for brunch, it was my first time but my bff has been often for dinner. The brunch menu looked amazing, so I was pumped to try it! I went w the churro waffles and my friend went w the spicy omelet. We agreed to split both, and then I started w their summer drink special - agua loca, which was a watermelon tequila drink. The waffles were good but rich, the omelet was delicious, the drink was not great. I had a cucumbrero for my second drink, it was delicious! Service was great, the place is small but really clean. Definitely would go back

    This is the best pozole I have ever had.  This place should be packed soooo freakin good and great service.

    Best pozole I have ever had. This is a hidden gem for sure. Great service. Loved the huge serving of chilaquiles.

    We went for a girls dinner last night. Bella was our server & she was spot on! So friendly & nice!!! We had the White Rose Sangria & skinny margs. We order the beef Short ribs, enchiladas (I asked for the salsa verde on side & side of their Oaxaca queso to pour over) It was absolutely delicious! Even the refried beans and rice were delicious. My girlfriend ordered the chicken Tinga enchiladas with salsa Verde, and black bean, also very testy!!!!! I live in North Scottsdale,, but will definitely be making the drive, to Peoria to eat at this place again. Highly recommend!!!!!

    My first time here, my parents have been talking about it for a while they frequently eat here. I really liked the decor, and our waitress was very nice and took good care of us. We ordered esquites, ceviche, and I ordered the Taco Tuesday special. The esquites was good, ceviche taste fresh and delicious. I enjoyed each of my tacos as well as the rice and beans. I would come back.

    Flautas. Perfect!

There wasn't anything that stood out about the sides, they were just okay. Our server was very pleasant, she had a large table of 12 in addition to us and other 'regular' sized tops, so her visits back to our table were less frequent then we would have liked. One thing we base service on is whether our beverages are refilled before they are finished and we had to ask a runner to refill our beverages because we hadn't seen our server for sometime. We came to this restaurant because it was close to where we were staying and we wanted a good steak. They have an extensive wine list and of course bourbon.

    Bourbon & Bones - Worth Every Penny…read more We were looking for a special place to celebrate my birthday and wanted to try something new. I've been really into bourbon the last few years, so a great steak and an excellent Old Fashioned were high on my list. I was thrilled to snag reservations at Bourbon & Bones just a few days out. I requested a booth in the special requests, and when we arrived they already had a beautiful booth set aside for us, which was a great start to the night. The atmosphere is intimate, upscale, and welcoming without feeling stuffy. Our waitress, Kailyn, was fantastic -- attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely pleasant -- and she was supported by William, who was equally great. Our friends were running late, but we never felt rushed or pressured, which really allowed us to enjoy the experience. We were greeted with crusty bread, whipped butter, and salted pretzel breadsticks -- all excellent. The bourbon and whiskey list is massive, easily the most extensive I've ever seen at a restaurant . I started with their Pre-Prohibition Old Fashioned, which normally comes with Knob Creek 12, but they happily let me swap in Michter's American US*1. It was very good. Later, my buddy and I tried the Imperial Old Fashioned, a barrel-aged cocktail that can be served smoked tableside. The presentation was impressive, and the flavor lived up to it. Easily one of the best Old Fashioneds I've ever had . For appetizers, everything was a hit. My wife loved the short rib martinis so much she ordered a second. I had the jumbo shrimp cocktail from the raw bar, and they were the best shrimp cocktail I've ever had. As expected with a high-end steakhouse, sides are served à la carte and meant for sharing. We ordered the mac & cheese, sweet potato casserole, and I also had a jumbo short rib baked potato plus a cup of French onion soup, which was outstanding. For my entrée, I ordered the 10oz filet Oscar style with crab and hollandaise . The steak was cooked perfectly -- juicy, tender, and beautifully crusted -- and the crab was a perfect addition. The baked potato was massive and had to come home with me. The sweet potato casserole reminded me of Thanksgiving with an amazing brown sugar crust on top. This was the most expensive meal I've ever had, but the food, service, atmosphere, and overall experience made it worth every penny. A perfect spot for a celebration, and I would absolutely return. Clean restaurant, great atmosphere, phenomenal staff -- five stars without hesitation.

It sits right on the edge of a lake on arrowhead golf course. You do not need to be a member here to eat here but they do take member numbers if you are one of the Arrowhead clubs members. One of the waitresses remembers us every time we come in, which is awesome! Last time I was here I got the quesadilla and my husband got the burger which during happy hour I believe was only $10 for his meal, and $4 for pints of beers. They always have sports playing on the TVs as well as several different games to play like ping-pong and foosball. It is nice because it's right on the golf course so you can play a round of golf or do the driving range and come here after. The vibe of the place is very laid back and family friendly. You cannot bring dogs unless they are service animals so just keep that in mind. It is tucked away in Arrowhead Neighborhood, but GPS takes you right there. The parking lot does have potholes, but it's not a big enough deal to warrant a four star review. We will definitely be coming back again.
