    Jacuzzi  ..   Seems they are prepared for winter too!  LOL

    You would be a fool not to go there ... By FAR, one of the BEST Hotel/Bar/Restaurant/Pool combos in the area! I prefer it over the Westin easily! Take it from someone who has been on the road for a long time, almost 26yrs now!!! Stay here, trust me! The convenience in the area is beyond all of Tempe and Phoenix by far!!! I'll never stay at any other hotel near SKY Harbor ever again!!

    3 years ago, my GF ( now Fiancée ) had our first date here, Today we decided to re-create that…read moredate, except i was proposing. We ordered a few apps to share such as the ceviche and Fried pickles and got a Ruben to share, and I must say, was incredibly tasty, just as good as I remember from our first date Then our server was absolutely incredible and was very and attentive, our drinks never reached under half full before we were asked if we wanted another, nor did our empty plates stay on our table more than 30 seconds, 10 out of 10 experience all the way around Heather, the manager made everything incredibly special for us. When i made the reservation and worked the details out with her, i just expected a table to be reserved, she went way over and beyond to make it such an incredible day for us. Words can not express the gratitude I have 10/10 Experience, if you are thinking about going here, don't think about it, do it.

    Came here to celebrate a big milestone in my partners life. Had a great experience as usual. The…read moremenu is large so there's something for everyone! We got the Chicken Tinga Nachos as an appetizer and it was a perfect amount for the 4 of us. I got a burger and it was pretty delish. One thing I will say is their sweet potato fries definitely do not taste fresh, I'd guess they are frozen/sysco but what else do ya expect nowadays? We got the s'mores pizookie for dessert and I really enjoyed it. It's baked to order so it takes a little bit but I thought it was worth it. And if that's not your thing, Menchies is right next door and always a treat. Tons of games and such and they even had trivia on the TV. Just a really great neighbourhood spot!

    This would be my first time to this place as for my husband he had been here a handful of times…read more We came for dinner and wasn't sure if we would be able to get seating without a long wait, but we were in luck. We choose to sit indoors. The restaurant is very cozy with dimmed lighting to add to the evening ambiance. It has a casual feel but you can dress up or down. Some people were casual and some more dressed up. We were seated at the front by the stage where live music was about to start. I thought this would be nice since I do enjoy live music. Well the speakers were facing right at our table and it was noticeably loud when the entertainer began to play. We asked for another table. We could not hear ourselves talking. I ordered a cocktail, The Giddy Up Espresso Martini. That was very delicious! They do have a full bar, it's nice to have choices as far as alcoholic beverages. Our food, Fish & Chips, BBQ Nachos, Aged Manchego, Crusty Bread Garlic Oil & Balsamic, and Molinari Sopressata. Everything was absolutely delicious! The fries with the Fish were perfect. My favorite besides the Martini. was the Crusty Bread with Olive Oil and Balsamic. Our server was the best! Amiriya made sure our drinks stayed filled and asked us what we thought about the food. Even on this busy night. After our meal we walked around the outside seating and game area. This place is a fun place to meet with others especially with the outdoor/patio game area. I would love to come back when in AZ.. But, I don't have to wait until then because we have a CD restaurant in the San Diego area! Woohoo! I can't wait to try some other dishes and have another Espresso Martini. I probably would pay for a shot of Bailey's added to the drink. Restaurant parking is busy but they do have additional parking just across the way. It happened to be busy because we were up against Valentine's Day weekend.

    After a long very hot drive we were in need of some dinner. We wanted something with a good…read moreatmosphere and delicious food so our son suggested Culinary Dropout. We arrived around 8pm on a Monday night and were happy they were open and seemed to have quite a few full tables. We were seated promptly at a very comfortable table. Our server took our drink orders right away and was very helpful in answering our questions regarding the menu. I ordered the most delicious shrimp Louie for my meal. My husband ordered the club sandwich which he thoroughly enjoyed. Our son ordered a pasta dish which he loved. Even though we don't live in the Tempe area, we would definitely dine at Culinary Dropout the next time we are in the area!

So good that they limit how many a customer can order during a visit. Our waitress was attentive and amazing . Great bar/restaurant vibes. A modern version of Cheers!

I love AMERICAN.. can't go wrong for me great burgers and wings:) server was nice and brought out what was asked in a pleasant manner.. food was great and great size we had each left overs. I order the burger and fry, my mans ordered the hot wings, and side fry. I tried his wings and my mouth was on FIRE! lol I honestly don't do hot but I gave it a go because I LOVE wings!!.. but dang ur girl was on fire chugging and swishing milk.. but honestly even tho they were to hot for me the lean meat and slight crisp wing was pretty great and flavorful.. id go for a med/mild myself.. but burning they were still pretty flavorful.. draft beer and cocktails available, he got a large beer and that it was came out in a giant mug with a handle and I got the ziparita- margarita and I liked that I could ACTUALLY .. taste the tequila in the margarita.
