The Bar.

The Bar" is a hidden gem! Bingo nights and darts make it a great spot . Small chill vibe, but packs a punch! Great spot for low-key hangouts

Buffalo and Black Cherry BBQ  Potato skins.

Wings are really good but this location was a little busy so the service was not the best, in the sense that they just took our order, gave us our food and never checked on us. I had to go order my drink to the bar.

The Sexican
Jaquay R.

In driving past the storefront a while ago, The Bar. caught my attention as well as my sister's. This was the next stop on the list of places to try. So we checked it out for $1 Wing Tuesday. Those wings were fresh in taste and cooked to order. I had to wait for them to cool down before taking a bite. I like my wings fried hard (Chicago term) so I asked for them to be cooked extra crispy (Arizona term). Boy am I happy I did because the wings are jumbo. I don't typically care for jumbo wings because they are usually tough and not cooked long enough for me, but these were meaty and delicious. The wing flavors tried was the John Blaze Honey Hots and Lemon Pepper with an order of fresh cut fries and blue cheese dressing for dipping. The drink I ordered was the Sexican and was very refreshing. So many spots to choose from, but this might be my new Tuesday spot when I want to mix it up from Taco Tuesday.

Chicken wings Half order honey and Extra hot
Veronica L.

Thr service was great ... The food is very good I love when they cook the order all together you get your order all together...I love it.. Chicken wings are one of the best I ever had ...The unions rings are delicious .... Only one person running the orders but they do a great job...

The hot wings had so much vinegar and a weird texture. The cheese curds had a lot of empty curds & hardly any avocado. Overall 4/10.

They charge for every little thing. The hot wings had so much vinegar and a weird texture. The burger was okay but the fries were delicious. The cheese curds had a lot of empty curds and the BLT hardly had avocado even though it's $2. Wouldn't come back to this place. Overall 4/10.

A hole-in-the-wall bar that makes you immediately feel like a local. Went after getting some wing recommendations from a friend and they even have 85 cent wings on Tuesdays! (Dine in only though). There aren't a lot of flavor options for the wings but the flavors that they do have are quite unique like the Cherry BBQ flavor; not something I would order on the regular but still delicious. I normally crave extra sauce but these wings might have been a little too smothered for me in this extra sweet sauce. The John Blaze Hot Honey did have a good kick to it but not excessively hot. Good combo of sweet and spicy! And on top of that the fries were perfectly crisp; some of my favorite I've had in Phoenix. Service was a bit slow and we had to ask the server to refill our glasses. Overall, a great stop for wings and fries.

Best Onion rings in the world!!!

See all

Are they closed down permanently?

I'm pretty sure. The last few times I've been by they have a sign posted on their door that they were shut down by a state agency. (I don't remember which!) :/

What time does the kitchen close?

1:30am, previous answer to question is very old!

Fun experience. Very unassuming on the outside…read more Very authentic, classy old train car feel inside. The servers are fabulous. And they clearly love playing the role in their jobs. The drinks are eh. I feel like they need to narrow their menu, have more classics and do them up well. I do love that some of their drinks have experiences that come with them. They need more options for snack foods as well. Fun little adult field trip.

We visited Platform 18 back in August (2025). My friend made a reservation for us. It's $12/person…read moreand the deposit is used towards the bill. Upon entering, we were transported to the Roaring 20s and it felt like we were actually riding on a train. We were seated at the bar which is where I prefer to sit. Our bartender for the evening was Remington. The menu is pretty extensive. Remington explained the layout of the menu and was great at making suggestions based on our preferences. Some of the drinks we ordered came with snacks which let me know that our selections were more spirit forward. The snacks of course complimented the flavors of the cocktails very well. I started with Beware the Papparazzi. It's a vodka based cocktail that had a sweet, tart, yet balanced taste. It also came with a surprise that I won't spoil. I also had The Film Star which is essentially a Vesper. It was good, but extremely boozy! It came with caramel popcorn. The sweet and saltiness of the popcorn complimented the drink well. Great drinks and a great vibe! Platform 18 was one of my favorite bars that I visited during my trip and I will definitely be back the next time I visit Phoenix.

I have to begin by saying, I haven't been to such an amazing restaurant or dining experience in a…read morevery long time, until Pyro! It seems next to impossible to hit all the marks of good vibe, good service and great food; and Pyro has it all. The restaurant is right by Global Ambassador, so parking is in the structure, and can get very busy every night, so be prepared for that. The restaurant had a lovely, dark, alluring vibe inside. We did choose to sit outside, as there was a nice big patio and the weather was beautiful. The chairs had a gorgeous deep curve, that wrapped the arms around you and were tailored in a gorgeous floral. Our incredible server, Ren, greeted us at our table and her energy was immediately infectious! We knew we were going to have a great time. You could tell she loved her job and loved this restaurant. She walked us through the menu and gave us many recommendations on drinks and food. We all listened to her drink options , all getting something different, and they were all fantastic. The matcha espresso and Louis' Martini were my favorites. We ordered the steak tartare, gyoza, short rib skewers, spicy salmon handrolls (we were able to make it 3), and scallops with risotto. Everything was truly incredible. The steak tartare was all of our favorites, and the hand rolls and gyoza , close second. Only thing I'd do differently, is try the chicken thigh skewers over the short rib. I imagine you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. With our whole evening being absolutely perfect, and still talking about it 2 weeks later, we can't wait to go back! We will definitely be asking for Ren as our server ! And reordering some of our favorites and trying some new things I had my eye on. So happy to know a restaurant still has passion and takes pride in a true dining experience.

Started out with signature cocktails, yellowtail sashimi, and tsukune meatballs. My son had the lamb rack with chimichurri sauce. I had the branzino. The waitress suggested a dry French Sauvignon Blanc. We finished off with the best panna cotta I've ever eaten. Loved the atmosphere. Not too loud. Service was wonderful. I highly recommend this restaurant. Servers were very knowledgeable about the food and wine. Pyro is on my list of favorite Phoenix restaurants.
