    We some night owls
    Zipporah A.

    Nice and cozy style eatery and some firs ahh pizzas!! When it comes to options and the brick oven I'd add them to the list, they have such a great night owl vibe to them located on the corner they're just chill! We went late and appreciated not feeling like we were being rushed or hurried to order. They have an outside or patio fire pit that's absolutely gorgeous and even more so during our cold winter and yes I said cold don't judge me inside is nice and they have this dope skateboard wall that really add unique design taste to the place. With so many good pizza joints around I feel like people would like them as well. This spot is for the night owls we got pizza but it was so good I didn't get to get a snapshot of it lol like I always say the proof is in the pudding it didn't have a chance I got yall next go!

    I came back two days in a rowww because it was that good. Starting Friday, I came with a friend and sat at the bar. We both ordered the Tongue in Groove, and it's officially my new favorite thing. The pizza was amazingggg. so amazing that I came back Saturday at lunch with my family. This time we sat in a booth inside and went for a more laid-back kind of day. Really cute decor. Mac bites: 10/10. Fries: 10/10. Our bartender on Saturday was so sweet and energetic. Loved everything she recommended.

    Super cool restaurant with amazing decor, artwork and provides a dark, moody atmosphere. We came in for dinner during the week. We were greeted and seated right away for two. Our server Boston was friendly, let us know about the pizza slice sizes and checked in on our table. The food we order was delicious and we really enjoyed our dinner. The pizza was toasty and warm. We both got full with one slice plus our sides. The wings were ordered tossed and were saucy. The ranch was good. The fries were flavorful and crispy. They have coke products. We ordered the following items. - Pep Slice (Classic Pepperoni). $4.25 -So Fresh So Clean Slice (Veggie) $4.75 -Wing (6) $10 - Wise Fries $6 - Dr. Pepper $3 Our total after tax was around $30. We would recommend and we would come again.

    Fun vibe and cool decor. Private parking lot makes it easy to visit this Tempe spot. Inside is cool decored with owls, skate stuff, and pinball. Loud atmosphere. Service was great and food was good. Fries got a little soggy with the sauce for the bottom bunch of fries. The Mac bites were yum. Pizza by the slice for $5.

    We really love Night Owl in Scottsdale, and we're happy they opened another location in Tempe, closer to our stomping grounds. The theme is the same here--vintage owls, video games, skateboards, and wood log slices. I will say, though, that this location is a little less "ka-pow" than the other location. There is no giant alligator or neon clowns or shoes in the ceiling (at least none that I saw). But no worries! The great service and delicious food are here, and it is still a cool decor with games. The patio is really great here, to, with a big shade tree and steering lights. We ordered a caesar salad and a The Boss pizza. The Caesar salad was delicious - - the dressing was good, and I can be picky about dressing. The pizza was so yummy, with so much meat. The quest here is really good like a light airy bread. Just as our visits to the other location, we had a great time and a great meal. This is already a place we go back to, and I don't expect that to change.

    I didn't realize the prior restaurant Golden Pineapple has become a new Night Owl location. This Mill location opened 2 weeks ago per staff. I'm not mad at that! I used to enjoy this spot when it was Golden Pineapple and we are regulars at the Scottsdale Night Owl so we were happy to come in and support the new location. This Mill Ave restaurant has a pinball alcove in the back and other games too. There's also Zoltar machine near the fireplace. It's a larger overall footprint. More bar seating and tables, however smaller patio for outdoor seating. This location offers the same (or very similar) menu. I noticed they have a cocktail called "Golden Pineapple" as a nod to the previous place. So in honor of that, I ordered it. It's a tiki type frozen drink and when it's almost 80 degrees in December, a frozen cocktail totally works :) It's tasty. Think piña colada type drink. I also ordered the lunch special- a slice of pepperoni pizza and 4 wings. They taste as good here as the other location. I like the burgers at Night Owl and that's usually what I order but we came in this time for just a snack and to check it out. For being open only 2 weeks things went smoothly and everything as expected. That's a good sign for a second location.

    I had high hopes for Night Owl because I've had multiple friends tell me great feedback about it. We finally got to try when they opened a Tempe location and unfortunately I was disappointed. The pizza and wings, according to my partner were good, but for me and my boys it wasn't as good as we expected it to be. The burger was very bland, even ate the other half the next day to see if I was just not in the mood for it the night before but it was still bland and no good for me. I did get an upgrade on my fries for extra $$, and got the Wise Fries. Glad I did because that's all I ate that night. It was really good and we had to order another serving. For the price we paid, I wish the food was better. Our server was nice and we have no complaints. The place was cool and had interesting decor. The game room was a little lackluster for us, I think my kids have been spoiled from the other place we go to.

    Stopped her while visiting our son in Tempe, it's very close to his apartment so wanted to give it a try. The place is super cute with so much to look at. Our server was new but very helpful with the menu and willing to get answers for us if she wasn't sure about our questions. The pizza crust was nice and crispy and remind that way until gone. The wings and fries were very good as well. The menu is pretty simple but we saw many other things we'd like to try the next time we go. We had a great time in their little video game area after we ate.

    Came here because we were at a loss for cooking dinner.. My wife had been out all afternoon and I had been working so I said 'let's do night owl'. We have been here plenty of times and it's always a good choice. Tonight was a little less 'as good'. We had a half & half pizza (Wise & Italian) and a dozen wings. Some of the wings were so smashed up they had multiple pieces of little bones throughout the wings. I know this isn't the chef/cooks issue, but it makes for a less favorable time while you're trying not to swallow broken bone pieces.. The pizza was ok - the Italian comes with a 'balsamic vinegarette' which is not so good. It's very 'vinegary' more than balsamic and it grossly overpowers the flavor of the pizza (which is fine otherwise). The vinegarette would be better as a side dipper in my opinion, then you can adjust on the fly. We only ate 2 slices, a drink each and took the remainder home.

    Garlic Knots (6 ) with cheese

    Visited a 2nd time this past Thursday, sat at the bar, Corey and Catalina were serving that night, also met the manager Desiree, we had meatballs and garlic cheesy knots and I had white pizza and my man had a slice of classic cheese, the meatballs really good served in a small cast iron pan with lots of melty cheese, and the garlic knits were cheesy hot and delicious, the slices were hot and the crust is so good! We love it we'll keep going back, apparently the wings are 10/10 - need to try them!

    Sidewalk Surfer Slice (Spicy)

    My husband and I came here for a casual night out. It's a great neighborhood spot slice of pizza for less than $5 wings are good we got the cauliflower and bone in and a couple glasses of wine.

    Moonage Daydream

    Holy cow! This place is incredible. My sister and I came here after work before we had to head to a meeting. We wanted a little drink and something to share. This place hit the nail on the head. We ate outside on the patio. It was a beautiful evening and the weather was perfect. We were served by Boston. I want to stop and truly recognize what an amazing server she was. She was kind, attentive, gave the perfect recommendations, and was very funny. Felt like chatting with a friend. Staff like that isn't common so we were glad that everyone we interacted with was that kind and helpful. Ok, the food. Boston gave us the idea that 6 speciality slices is about the prices of a whole speciality pizza... so we got five. These slices are giant. Like almost cartoon-y, exaggeratedly large. Like that scene from the Goofy Movie where Max and PJ eat pizza in the ocean themed motel room. And man, it was good. The Pretty Fly for a White Pie was my favorite. Creamy, loaded with toppings sat on a crispy crust. Mmmm... We were only able to eat a slice and a half each. But the pizza reheated well for lunch today. The Pineapple Express and The Boss were what they promised. Now the wings...That Stardust dry rub needs to be sold right now. It's like Old Bay and Lawrys had a slight smoky baby. I liked that the wings were baked but still crispy on the outside. The Wise Fries are delicious. I'm not a parm/truffle fry girlie but I definitely used my younger sibling whining to finish them off. And the ranch, THE RANCH. It's perfect. No notes. I am a true believer they need a weekly special that's like a loaded potato skin pizza with that ranch on top. (If it happens, I won't even claim royalties) I shared that with the server and the owner said they will R&D it. Finally, the drinks. I got the Moonage Daydream. It tastes like the aura of the cool girl in school that you are pretty sure is a witch. Bright, ethereal, but with depth and a smoky hue. Strong in a good way. I will definitely be back. Also, if you recall the guy who vandalized this spot prior to opening with a funny phrase from Tempe on the news, check out a hidden homage to him on the train in the main atrium area of the restaurant.

    Yo! The chicken is juicy here y'all. Chicken juicy grilled and crunch. Pepperoni has pep! Cocktails are fly. Patron's are chill. I'm coming back next Friday.

She was nice but seemed high. I ended up only having 2 drinks. We would have ordered more but they have 90min max seating and we didn't event get drinks for the first 30min. No exaggeration. Also one of my drinks I had to send back. My apple martini tasted like soap. It was like they did clean the glass after giving a soap bath. No bueno. So they need to get their service to match the vibe of a true cocktails lounge. Yes it is a 70s vibe but doesn't mean the lackadaisical style service. I would come back and try again. The music, the atmosphere and the food was good. They gotta get these cocktails together and service. We ended up walking to nearby competitors and that was money lost for DDG.

It's so pillowy soft and the flaky sea salt perfectly compliments it. I ordered the Wise Decision cocktail, which was refreshing. For my entree, I had the shishito Caesar salad and was advised I could add a protein from their skewer selection of chicken, pork belly or oyster mushrooms. I asked the waitress about the chicken and she advised that they are smoked and will appear pink from that, so not to be alarmed, but are moist and really flavorful. While the filet was tempting (and what everyone else at my table ordered), I wanted something lighter. Thankfully I was not disappointed in my selection. The chicken was as delicious as described and could be cut with a fork. The Caesar salad was well dressed, but not soggy. Do I think it was worth the money to add the chicken? Not if I were paying, but since my company paid for it, I think it was worth it. This is a great spot for a date night or special occasion.

The restaurant itself is very cute and clearly designed for photos, which matches what I saw on their Instagram. Service overall was fantastic. The food, however, was just okay. I ordered the burrata and fig plate and was told they'd replace the bread with apple slices. I received five very small slices of apple, and when the plate was set down the waitress said she'd get more if needed. I later noticed I was charged $2 for an additional five slices, which together didn't even amount to half an apple. Ironically, the bread that comes with the dish would have been far more substantial. The burrata was fine, but nothing memorable. My friend ordered the chicken and brussels sprouts and didn't even finish it before having the plate taken away. The flourless almond cake was the star, a bit salty on its own, but with the ice cream and whipped cream it was a delightful combo which were the highlight. Overall, this is a great spot for cocktails, ambiance, and photos, but the food is fairly mediocre compared to the setting.
