    Buffalo and Black Cherry BBQ  Potato skins.
    Petra V.

    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

    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.

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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!

I heard about this place from my brother, and went a couple of years ago, and could not wait to take my boyfriend here. The service is absolutely PHENOMENAL! They walk you through the menu, the experience, as well as guide you if you're not sure what you want to drink. We ordered several drinks and they were all so creative and fun! My favorite was the tea with the lit lavender "cigarette." It added to the ambiance and overall experience. We also ordered the trip of snacks tray and several other drinks. Although this place is pretty pricey, there is nowhere is like it and it's WELL worth the cost! Get reservations early and don't skip this amazing, creative, and inventive bar!

Upon walking in, the place was packed and we stood in line at the bar for standing room only. The bartenders were friendly and the cocktail list was pretty interesting. Both of the drinks we got off the menu were bitter and NOT sweet, which is bad news for me cause I love a sweet drink! lol The bartender was able to make me a lychee mojito after I asked specifically for any flavored syrups they had. She was very sweet to check what flavors they have and gave me several different options. My boyfriend got some whiskey and they gave a hefty pour. We ended up snagging some seats at the bar and ordered two slices of pepperoni pizza. Love that you can buy slices individually here, including cheese pep and dill pickle - how fun, will definitely try this next time! Overall, nice chill dive bar with good food and drinks. Ambiance is very moody but fun. They also have old school darts! We'll be back :)

On the flip side, the Pyro Benedict missed the mark--the shredded short ribs were very dry. The Green Tea Milk Punch ($12) looked good, but lacked flavor and wasn't worth it for my friends. Watch out for fees: They auto-added a 1.5% credit card surcharge without informing us upfront. It's frustrating for a larger, modern venue to pass off merchant fees like that. Check your bill carefully!
