    Guac
    Chloë J.

    It's white wash Mexican food, WHICH IS NOT BAD if that's what you're looking for. The guacamole we ordered was huge, but lacking flavor. Same with the salsas you get a whole bunch but it's so-so. The food tastes good but it's not like authentic Mexican. Service and atmosphere I can't complain about, the patio is great on those cooler AZ days and pet friendly!

    Waitress was forgetful she forgot my drink n did not apologize was rude n will no longer go back there. Service was horrible. It was Mother's Day not even busy. She did no good ck on us just took order never came bk had to have bus boy look for here we wanted out tab to leave that place

    Diablo Shrimp Tacos. Spicy crema and habanero cole slaw on the side.

    Sat on the patio, weather was nice. Food was tasty. We watched the football game but no audio or music to contribute to ambiance. Also, just 1 shrimp per taco. $20

    Patio Seating -- dog friendly

    Today was the first time I experienced Nando's brunch. I ordered their Sonoran Eggs Benedict with Carnitas. I was truly impressed, the eggs were poached to perfection the hollandaise sauce was delicioso. The service is always amazing! Logan and the crew are always friendly and attentive. I'm here at least 6 times a month.... I always get a chance to try the MOM ( Margarita of the Month) Nando's has one of the BEST HAPPY HOUR MENUS. They have a dog friendly patio. Great vibe and great staff

    Fried tilapia tacos

    It was my first time trying Nando's and I loved it! Delicious food. The chips and salsa were so yummy, especially the hot salsa. I got the fried tilapia tacos and they were decent. The rice and beans had really great flavor.. But I was honestly jealous of my boyfriend's enchiladas though, they looked amazing! I will be back for those!! We both really enjoyed our experience here. The service was quick and friendly. The outdoor seating was very nice. Definitely recommend trying it out.

    Let's try again. Service was OK again, she seemed to be overwhelmed. You get chips and a carafe of salsa, they also give you a ounce of hot salsa, you can have more at request. The salsa is very good, great flavor and fresh. The shrimp Fajitas was excellent. Shrimp tails are already off and cook beautiful. The guacamole is also very good and not spicy. Not sure about the refried beans, they taste like canned, they do not taste fresh. This is a good place and will go again.

    Waitress is really friendly attentive Restaurant is a little pricey , the plates are big , I got the chile relleno chicken and they served me meat . Waitress was nice and returned to kitchen . My tea was not good very sour it was pomegranate tea looked like lemon . Ambience very modern and fresh .

    Mango margarita was extra watery with no alcohol

She came back often to check on us. It was nice to chat with someone so kind and genuine. I wish more people were like her. The food is good. My sister and I both ordered the Blt. She got fruit and I got a side salad with fresh spinach and veggies. We also had the Triple Bogie appetizer with onion rings, fries, and a quesadilla.

We all decided to spend an afternoon out by the pool. We ordered drinks, appetizers, and were swimming around with plenty of room (maybe 5 other people out in the pool). Our friend decided to walk down a level to where the bar is, but the path was unnecessarily long & inconvenient, so she sat on the low railing & flipped her legs over the side, as a shortcut. It was really no big deal, but apparently the towel lady across the way thought so because she called out Harrah's security team, which included the manager & 5 other people, who all proceeded to stand in a row. They called out to my friend to come to them so they could speak to her. We were all perplexed because she had not been loud, rowdy, disruptive or disrespectful. They demanded that she be escorted to her room right away & would not be allowed in the pool area for the rest of the night. We could not believe it! Never have any of us seen this kind of action taken on paying guests at a hotel. I've never even seen this action taken with people who were rowdy & seriously drunk. They were very demeaning & rude. It completely ruined our colleagues stay here in Arizona. The handling of this situation was beyond unprofessional! I think Harrah's is lucky to have anyone stay in their hotel at all, considering the entire place stinks of cigarette smoke. Even cheap hotels in Vegas smell better than this joint. I will never recommend this place to anyone!

    What can I say about this place that hasn't already been said time and time again? Everything from…read morethe service to the ambiance is top-notch. Of course, this place is known for its cocktails, so naturally they should be great--but trust me, I've been to several cocktail-only establishments that were lackluster. Absolutely NOT the case here. You could literally put all the pages of the menu on a wall, throw a dart, and whatever you hit would be delicious and interesting in its own right. The place is a little small, but honestly, that's what I love about it. It feels cozy in all the right ways. It's also very relaxing, floating along the sea with some delightful surprises here and there. We ordered several drinks, but one that's not on the menu (and they do make it) is the Pearl Diver, which is magnificent here. The mixologists and servers are all amazing and should be proud of themselves for bringing such an experience to Gilbert.

    We've been trying to get into Undertow for a year now and I've never quite been able to get in…read moreuntil last night. We were waiting for dinner at Buck and Rider and went next-door to see if we could get a drink while waiting. The host greeted us nicely and said that as long as we could be gone within 45 minutes that they would love to welcome us in since they had other reservations, but that worked out perfect because like I said we were waiting for our table next-door anyway. It is small but decorated beautifully thankfully there are no steps because it is dark and you kind of feel a little lost as you're walking through but the ambience is very cool. It feels like just tropical and lush all around you. We were seated at a two top along the wall, which seemed like a small space however, it had a really cool cut out window with a moving landscape of water and an island that through the course of the time as we were sitting there, changed to a storm and then cleared it up again it was just really beautiful visually and didn't feel so closed in. The menu was a large variety of cocktails obviously you need to like rum and bourbon and all of the things that pirates and island feels give. Our server made some suggestions. We ordered two different drink drinks. The first was the macadamia nut piña colada I think we are expecting a little more coconut flavor to this drink however, it was very delicious. Definitely strong. The other was actually our server suggestion that had peaked my interest because it had guava in it and that was called off the grid. It was delicious. It was perfectly balanced with sweet and sour lemon, pineapple guava with bourbon and other flavors. On our way out, I did hit the restroom. They have two neutral bathrooms. It was large. It was very clean, decorated beautifully like the rest of the restaurant. All in all a great way to start the night.

Food looked great as well, I really wish we had eaten here instead of wasting money at the other place.

    This review is long overdue…read more After drinks and bites at The Living Room on Saturday, May 6, 2017, Rachel took Allen, David and me to THE BRICKYARD DOWNTOWN for more alcoholic beverages. Nestled in historic downtown Chandler, in the narrow sliver of Boston Street, the speak-easy themed cocktail bar and restaurant is located inside the former home of the Chandler Arizonan, the city's original hometown newspaper since 1912. With exposed brick walls and rich wood finishes, the historic site provides an upscale, contemporary urban and industrial-chic setting. After easily finding parking in walking distance from the entrance, we arrived shortly before midnight of the 7th. They were closing soon, but we had enough time to order a round of craftly-made cocktails and beers to down quickly. It helps when your friend knows the bartender. Enter smiley face emoji here. THE BRICKYARD DOWNTOWN is credited for the first place that I ever tried a CLOVER CLUB, a pink, frothy cocktail with fruity, citrusy, velvety qualities. I was instantly tickled pink, literally, by the nostalgic feel of the elegant concoction, topped with artfully designed egg white foam and served in a vintage-style champagne glass. What a beauty of a drink with a touch of class and sophistication! Almost made me want to throw on a flapper dress and dance the Charleston...until I realized the need to balance from the powerful punch in the serious drink. Fancy, stiff cocktails served at THE BRICKYARD DOWNTWON fo shizz. No complaints about that here! It's been a while since I visited Arizona. Maybe it's time to return. If/when I do, I will mos def drop by THE BRICKYARD DOWNTOWN again!

I'm a huge pancake person, so I was excited to try the strawberry pancakes, but they were honestly disappointing.

The strawberry topping also wasn't very appetizing--it seemed like it was meant to be more of a sauce, but it didn't quite work.
