Green chili burger
Nikkel S.

I really love this place! It feels like you're at home, the bathroom was adorable with all the actual pictures of their adventures! The food literally amazing. The wings were so big and juicy the service...they remembered all our names! I can't even explain how amazing this place is!

Wings and edamame
Mo S.

We came in to watch the Celtics game, and as requested Shelley offered to put it on as requested at our convenience. We ordered 4 flavors of wings: lemon garlic pepper, stinging' honey garlic, kicking' cilantro, and honey hot. Our fav were cilantro and the lemon garlic. They have plenty of TVs and also have little games to play: like golf and hunters game. The ambience is amazing, and very warming. Shelley has many pictures throughout the business including the bathroom , and it's very positive. Check it out!

Nachos with ground beef
Holli A.

First time here and definitely not my last. I was looking for a place to watch my team's first preseason game. I called around and the owner took the time to see if it was being televised... and it wasn't . I was able to watch football nonetheless. I ordered 1/2 order of nachos with ground beef, very tasty. The homemade salsa was great. I also ordered the green chile burger... one of the best burgers I've eaten outside of my home. I am not a wing eater, but I did notice the wings were huge. Lots of different sauce options. Small and quaint with great atmosphere. I will definitely go back.

Maybe a dj is sometimes here?

First time at this neighborhood establishment Saturday and I will report that the wings and skinny tenders were really good! Shelley the owner was also our server and she was very attentive and polite. I loved the bumpin sound system and played the appropriate country music to fit the crowd at this Idaho bar. We didn't want to ruffle too many feathers as it was definitely a place local regulars come and have their own community proudly expressing themselves in their "Biden's an Idiot" shirt for example all having connections upon entering. Anyhow, clothing is a personal and has nothing to do with this review nor does the owner control what patrons wear or their political leans. I'm mentioning it because the setting, culture and energy may scew your decision to stop in. If you go out, you know this is a fact. The reason I'm not giving the place 5 stars is the lack of up charge disclosure. We ordered Tito's sodas. We were brought talls. We didn't ask for talls, some places serve them in these glasses so didn't think anything of it. When the bill came we were charged an extra 2.99 for these tall drinks we didn't request as tall. I ordered the skinny tenders. I saw only fries and tots were included and all salads and tomato's were an extra $1.99 on the menu. I let Shelley know I wanted no side. She was very personable and recommended the tomatoes which were healthy and said that's how she eats them. We had something in common. There was rapport. Genuine desire to offer me something that would make me happy. I agreed. Since she didn't mention that would be $1.99 I thought maybe she was being nice and wouldn't charge us for them. They were on the receipt. I can afford it, not a big deal. But I consciously originally decided I didn't want a side because I didn't see the point in paying extra for a few 1 tiny slices of tomato. No such luck. So the discounted Star is for the lack of pricing disclosure. Full disclaimer is always honest and transparent. We won't be back. Wasn't a feel good spot for us and that's probably by design. It may be yours. If you don't want price surprises, specify you'd like a short beverage. And don't expect any being nice free tomatoes. You will pay to play. Cheers!

What dark tap beers do you have?

Our beers rotate. Depends on what we have in stock.

Is this place kid friendly?

This place is not friendly to anyone. My kids are 7 and 8 and I wouldn't take them there.

So this says not good for kids (babies)... why?

We have multiple families who frequently come in with children. However, we don’t allow anyone under 21 in after 9:00pm.

What nights do they do karaoke?

Having always seen this class while driving to the gym, this place ended up being perfect for the World Cup viewing. The menu includes more than the normal bar fare so there is something for everyone. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Philly and it hit the spot. It was bite after the bite of flavor but the wait time was rough. Understandable since it was a busy sports day with the World Cup viewinf party in place. Not a bad spot.

I was only able to eat half the sandwich & it had a couple of hard pieces. Service was not good. They weren't busy when we were there, but my iced tea was empty for a while. Then I had to flag her down to get a refill. Mediocre food & service that's not great. I don't have any reason to return. My friend goes here, but she's been going since it was the bar here before.

From the moment we walked in, it felt like we were hanging out with friends. The vibe was relaxed and welcoming, with beer-themed decor lining the walls and a lively group of people enjoying the soccer game on TV. We grabbed a high-top near the beer fridge and were checking out the menu online when Saad, who was working behind the bar, came over to introduce himself and welcome us in. His energy was awesome - super friendly and easygoing - and he made us feel right at home. He checked in to see if we had any questions, which was a nice touch. We tried a bunch of different beers, both from the taps and the cooler, and honestly loved them all. You can tell they're really passionate about craft beer here. We'll definitely be back- this place is a gem!

Decided…read moreto pull out my phone. and instead of using Yelp, I actually just punched cheesesteak into Waze, and what do you know?! I ended up finding the cheesesteak joint. This is actually a food truck, which is parked on the side of the Tipsy Catcus, which is a really cool brewery I also checked out while I was waiting for my order. This is a really chill brewery, and not a huge spot. Maybe 8 to 10 high top tables with bar seating, and a mostly open floor plan. They have a small patio too, with what looks like about another tables but because I visited at night, nobody was outside. They also seem to be extremely dog friendly as they had one table with a really chill cocker spaniel completely laid out on his side in the middle of the floor. I'm not sure how many taps they had in total, but definitely more than 40 I would say. I'm not a big beer drinker, so I ordered a cider. The cider I was served was on tap and really tasty. And it definitely hit the spot of terms of price point. One thing to note, while I was talking to the owner/manager of the tipsy cactus (shout to him because he was really cool), he told me that Friday night and Saturday nights are usually popping so I wouldn't expect to be first in line on any of those nights. It also looks like they rotate food trucks on different nights, so don't assume that the cheesesteak truck is going to be here every night. I would check the tipsy cactus website, or Instagram page to be sure. I'll definitely be looking forward to checking this place out again in the future, especially if I'm hitting one of the food trucks parked outside.

SOCIETY! What a beautiful little hidden gem in Tempe! And WOW, what a wonderful experience!…read more First, a little tip on finding this place. Society is located on the second floor of the plaza, and you might actually walk right past the entrance! If the line for Tempe Improv gets long, it can partially block the double doors. Just look carefully, and you'll find your way in! Once you walk inside, it's like stepping into a completely different world! The atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous! Romantic, trendy, a little glamorous, and definitely POPPIN'! Between the beautiful chandeliers, cascading flowers, colorful lighting, and stylish décor, I couldn't stop looking around. Whoever designed this place did a fantastic job! We had reservations, and I would HIGHLY recommend making them. This place can fill up quickly, and I can certainly understand why! Now, let's talk about the FOOD! Several people had recommended that we try the Whipped Feta appetizer, so of course we had to order it. OH MY GOODNESS! This was hands down one of the most delicious appetizers I've had in a LONG time! The whipped feta was creamy, with this wonderful honey combination in the middle that brought everything together beautifully. Paired with the bread, it was absolutely fantastic! I'm not kidding when I say I could've ordered that appetizer and made an entire meal out of it! LOL! If you visit Society, PLEASE try the whipped feta! For dinner, I ordered the Chicken Alfredo, which came with their spinach-infused pasta. And WOW, that was delicious too! The pasta was wonderful, the sauce was flavorful, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Definitely not your ordinary Alfredo! My friend ordered the Penne alla Vodka, which looked delicious, although I didn't get a chance to sample it. Guess that gives me another reason to return! And can we talk about the SERVICE?! Absolutely wonderful! Our server was attentive, friendly, and always checking on us to make sure everything was taken care of. We never felt forgotten, and everything flowed so nicely throughout our dinner. Then came a little surprise! They found out we were celebrating my birthday and brought out a birthday dessert! How sweet was that?! I certainly wasn't expecting it, and it made an already wonderful evening even more special. Between the amazing atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent customer service, Society really impressed me. Would I return? ABSOLUTELY! HANDS DOWN! This is a wonderful place for a date night, birthday celebration, or just an evening out with friends. It's beautiful, lively, and has the food and service to back it up. And you better believe I'm ordering that whipped feta again! In fact, I might not even share it next time! LOL! Thank you, Society, for such a memorable birthday dining experience!

I come here pretty regularly and it honestly never disappoints! I've never had a bad meal here. The…read moreambiance is sooo cute, very girly and definitely a photo worthy spot. It's a little dark inside, but the flowers are gorgeous and they even have the cutest little fairy garden box! The service didn't catch my attention but I'm sure they did fine. Food wise, the pasta alla vodka is pretty good. I've definitely had better, but it's still enjoyable! The truffle fries were delicious, and the chicken orzo was actually really tasty. Definitely a place I enjoy coming back to! The bathroom photo op area is beyond beautiful!
