My sister used to be a waitress here and she has great experiences and high remarks about ownership and management.

I ate here recently at the bar because it was my sisters last week working there. She had recommended the food. I'm so glad I tried the brisket meal. The cheesecake dessert was delicious. Loved the live music and neighborhood good vibes. My sister no longer works there because she moved but she said the owners are wonderful people. She loved the food and worked there so that says a lot.

Good service Perfect breading on the fish Good tarter sauce and cocktail sauce They have a Horseradish that is delicious Large portions Couldn't be more happier with this place I'm glad I found some good fish for Fridays Will be going back many times until I find another good quality fish Friday, but even then I will continue to go to this location

Surprised I never reviewed this place. I've been coming here on and off for many years. I don't dine at bbq place a lot since I smoke my own stuff. I can say this place is my favorite place for rib tips. They are always consistantly good, not like Famous Dave's Ordered some rib tips, pulled pork sandwich, fries, onion strings, and fried zucchini. Rib tip always good as usual, pretty tender and smokey. Pulled pork sandwich was also good, not too dry. I've had their coleslaw before and it is also pretty good. I do like their jalapeño Mac and cheese. Fries I ordered was big fail, they weren't crispy and it ended up big lump of semi soggy potatoes. Onion stings was pretty tasty, but the fried zucchini was also fail. First time ordering it from here. Huge slice and the corn meal batter did not go too well. Service was great as always, friendly staff. This is not my favorite BBQ place but never fails me on what I order. Hence why I've been coming here for years.. Forgot to take picture of the receipt but it was around $48 before tip.

Very disappointing. Don't know what's happening with with Toms, but they lost me as a customer. I stopped in for a Chicago dog on a Saturday morning. I'm looking at the menu on the counter and the price was $4.99. The young woman rang me up and said $6.50. I pointed to their menu and said should be closer to $5.50. She said we don't use that. Look above at the menu, it's $5.99. I told her lose the menu on the counter. She didn't. Then her point of sale machine asked for an 18% tip. The dog was brought out to me. No pickle spear, only 1 small pickle chip and 3 pieces of cucumber. Sorry, but a Chicago dog has a pickle spear, not sliced cucumbers. And it had way too much celery salt. You guys blew it.

Our experience ordering takeout from Tom's bbq for the first time fell short. We never dined here before so we thought we would give them a try and order take out. Food took a long time to be ready, chicken was undercooked and the brisket was dry and didn't have much flavor. Friday night, restaurant was very busy and the line was almost out the door after we ordered. We thought this must be a very good sign. We ordered 3 2 meat plates, brisket and chicken, upgraded one meal to corn bread, and got Mac and cheese, coleslaw, fries, potato salad for sides. Food took close to 40 min to be out. By the time the food got home, it was less than warm. We immediately noticed that the corn bread was not there despite paying more for it. Brisket was dry and had very little flavor. It was ok with the warm bbq sauce. Chicken as seen in the picture was all undercooked in all 3 plates so we ended up tossing it. Also, they don't have sauces other than bbq. We were hoping for a mustard based sauce for the chicken, as it goes really well with it. As for the sides, none were impressive but slaw was good. Fries were just ok, Mac and cheese was fine and the potato salad was nothing special. The dinner roll was store bought quality. Prices are somewhat similar to other bbq places but we were not happy with the food and the flavors were underwhelming. I'm sure it's still a favorite for many but it is not ours.

1/24/26 Monthly Breakfast Club meet-up with friends…read more Parking 5/5 We arrived at 7:30 am and there was plenty of shared and private parking. We parked near the front door. Atmosphere 5/5 This restaurant is a gem, well appointed, great colors that give a vibe of warm spaces and class. This isn't your corner-chain breakfast joint. Service 6/5 From the greeter to the servers your visit experience is elevated by their attentiveness. Food 8/5 Let me begin by saying this restaurant has a great menu with selections that are rare at this price point, skillfully prepared and a great value! Everyone in our party of six was pleasantly impressed with their selections. The recipes are great and the Kitchen here does an outstanding job getting fresh hot dishes to the table quickly. I had the Spinach, Bacon omelette; and country potatoes; outstanding! A splash of the house private label hot cause was a great touch. My wife enjoyed her Denver omelette with toast. The Caption enjoyed his Delicious French toast, Kelly had crepes and Jim enjoyed the Crab cake eggs Benedict and said they were delicious as were my unique SW eggs Benedict my previous visit. I covered my Army Captain buddy. $86.24 for three of us with tip for a level above breakfast. A breakfast to remember my friends-SYOY!

We arrived around 12, and had a 20 minute wait (no problem). Our waitress was a bit strange. Definitely out of the ordinary for this restaurant.... The girls ordered the 1/3 pound cheeseburgers, I got the crispy chicken melt. The food came out surprisingly quick considering how busy it was. The girls enjoyed their burgers, but we did notice that there was only a minuscule portion of thousand island on the bun... Nobody wants a dry burger, do they? we asked for more sauce for the burgers since there was hardly any there and we were charged...... My sandwich was terrible.... The chicken pieces were small and had no flavor. There was very little sauce on the sandwich & the avocado was nearly black. &The fries did not taste fresh either. Then, to my surprise, I chomped down on this enormous hard piece in my sandwich.... I spit it out right away and noticed I bit down on a massive bone chip.... It definitely hurt my tooth!! The girls and I both saw this giant chunk & instantly lost our appetites. I am so grateful that I did not choke on this thing or break my tooth. I've never seen anything like this. We asked for the check and got the heck out of there. I am extremely disappointed. This has always been one of my favorite spots, since childhood. However, after this experience, I'm afraid that I won't be coming back.... I am extremely grossed out.

The onion is still crunchy and they are never greasy. This time I shared the Steak & Cheese sandwich as well. Wow! That is huge and delicious! No way I could eat a full one on my own. The meat was so tender with American cheese, onions, mushrooms and green peppers. My only adjustment would be lighter on the peppers and a little more mushrooms. The place is clean and friendly. Don't let the Mesa strip mall keep you away. After eating, check out the produce market across the street for some great deals!

Visited The Public Grill Bar today...Oh my goodness! Can hardly wait to go back!…read more We shared the empanadas, chicken tenders and the onion rings! Empanadas were very tasty, especially with the Caribbean flavor. Crust was flaky, filling was perfect amount and not dry like so many are. Then let's add the homemade sauce...oh ya, so good! The chicken tenders were so moist. The breading is the same as the onion rings, very light and airy with the perfect amount of salt. Onion rings are the best I have ever eaten. Homemade, full rings, with just a little crunch, your choice of dipping sauce. Another couple stated they eat at The Public Grill 2 times a week trying different items each time. They said "the homemade food is delicious every time." Service is outstanding. 1 server at lunch time, 2 at dinner. 3 people in the back. Amazing part, the owner also helps with serving if needed. The restaurant is very clean. Not many tables, may have a little wait. However, it's worth it!

I walked in for a salad during the week around 2pm, and placed an order on the self-order screen. This was my first time at ChopShop so I didn't know what to expect. After waiting for maybe 11 minutes, I circled around to the self-pickup area and didn't see my salad. The staff immediately came over, apologized, gave me a free drink, and had my salad out in two minutes. It was such a kind and unnecessary gesture, and one I really appreciated. I had the BBQ Salad with chicken which was fantastic. All the elements of the salad were super fresh and flavors were all there. I really want to go back to try the Thai bowl. Lots of space to eat inside and out; it's a very bright and friendly atmosphere! I'll be back soon, ChopShop :)
