Chicken quesadillas
Randy B.

Great food, great time for a Sunday afternoon. Chris our waiter absolutely made our experience more fun than words can say. From the moment we came in the door until the time we left it was a perfect experience at the Whiskey River Saloon!

Hatch Green Chili pulled pork taco
Lori L.

My friend got the classic cheeseburger with Sidewinder fries and I got the Hatch Green Chili pulled pork taco. Both were very good. Things were a bit slow, but there was also only one person working. Will definitely go back to try more things! Moody and dark, very tavern-like. They have Barstool areas in the front but then a bigger dining room in the back.

Awesome band setting up

Love the vibes here. Pet friendly patio. Live music, good food, and dancing. Perfect place for a cold beverage, delicious salmon tacos, and people watching. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Also, they have a doggie menu.

CHICHARRONES! #bringthemback
Susan W.

We came here with some friends visiting from out of state. My husband always rants and raves about the chicharrones (fried pork rinds) and insisted we have some along with lunch and a couple of drinks. Well to our surprise (and my husband's near death experience!), we learned that the menu has recently changed and that the chicharrones were removed! My husband was immediately feeling like the world was coming to an end and asked our server, Jessica, if she could please ask the chef to find some in the freezer and make them for us. Jessica who was so nice and super friendly said she would talk to the cook, but that she couldn't guarantee that chicharrones were still in stock. The menu had apparently just changed and several regular customers had already felt the same pain when they heard that the pork rinds were gone! WHY do restaurants do this to us??? Anyway, we went ahead and ordered some chips and salsa and a side of guacamole in hopes that this appetizer would satisfy the craving for those famous chicharrones that three of us only ever heard about... We also ordered a couple of Palomas, a PBR, and an 805 from the bar. Our Palomas were very good and the beers, well they're beers! The chips were good, the salsas (red and green) were okay, and the side of guacamole was definitely on the small side, but had an okay taste. Our lunch order consisted of the Pulled Pork Tacos (ordered two), the recommended and new menu item, Grilled Chicken Salad, a Classic Burger, and the new Chicken Wrap served on a spinach wrap. Both the burger and the wrap were served with fries. The burger came with swirly fries and they were amazing! The wrap was served with shoestring fries and they were also very good. The tacos are sold a la carte and come with a lot of meat, shredded cabbage and topped with French onions. My friend said they were very good and because they're not that big, two were the perfect amount. As for my chicken salad, it was okay. There was nothing special about it or anything to rave about. In my opinion they should bring back the old menu and keep it as it was... So, I don't know what Jessica said to the cook, but she scored BIG in our book! The chef was able to make us an order of chicharrones and they were served fresh, hot, and oh so yummy! Apparently, he still had some in the kitchen since the changes were so recent. My husband just about jumped out of his stool when he heard the news and he quickly told Jessica to please tell the chef to store the rest in the freezer and save them for when he returns and requests them again! KUDOS to Jessica who literally made his day!!! This tavern is located on Whiskey Row, but not necessarily on the block where most tourists are seen. I imagine those that come here are more of the locals and/or locals bringing in their visitors. It's got a rustic vibe going on and is much bigger than one would think. A large area that extends off from the bar area has an ample amount of seating and a couple of pool tables. They also have live music, but I'm not sure what the hours are. Staff is always friendly and the establishment is very clean, including the restrooms! I highly recommend trying this place out at least once. I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed.

Stopped in for a cocktail and had the dogs with us. Misha took great care of us out on the patio! Great drinks, great food! Chance and Bo loved their dinners and the fish tacos Jamie and I shared were excellent. Drinks are excellent and we will definitely be back next time we are in town!

Giant Tacos! Cajun Citrus Chicken & Green Chili Pulled Pork
Robyn V.

We were trying to get in on a Sunday late morning for breakfast next-door, but the hostess was snippy and there was a wait, so we wandered into Whiskey River instead and we're so happy to have found this gem of a restaurant! Being that it was Sunday around 11 AM, the place was practically empty and we were treated like royalty. We Sat outside, Alex was our server - he was polite, friendly, knowledgeable and on it! Two of us ordered 2 tacos each, my Mom had a gorgeous perfectly cooked giant medium rare burger with onion rings, and the table shared a side of tater tots. Everything was fabulous. The tacos are massive, you have to eat half of the toppings out before you're able to even eat the taco - definitely not a complaint! Homemade ranch was delightful, the corn tortillas were extraordinary (didn't fall apart, so good!!) and my vegan boyfriend loved his veggie tacos! I got one of the chicken, and one of the pork, and both were equally delicious. We will definitely be back, as we were leaving before the 1 PM live music started, and more people started coming in. This place has a really cool vibe, and can't wait to check out more of the live music scene, and take a peek upstairs! Love how dog friendly the whole place is!

Taco salad
Elyse J.

Super friendly staff! Quaint and historic feeling atmosphere. Fresh food with big portions

Patio Fun!
Beth E.

Always a fun place to go for their unique and delicious tacos or wings, along with drinks and live music. Back in our drinking days, we enjoyed their Old Fashioned cocktails. They have created quite a fun atmosphere for the Prescott scene with multiple areas for music (outdoor patio, Bunkhouse upstairs, and inside), playing pool, watching sports, or just hanging out with friends.

Guinea's and their drink of the day Whiskey Smash
London B.

The waitress Sonia and the waiter Caution, yes that is his name, have definitely brought this amazing place back to the amazing vibes that we have come to know expect at this place.

Prescatz rocked the whiskey like never before!!! }precatz

Great food and service. The salmon taco was the best and pickle fries were amazing. The alcohol was well poured too.

My daughter and I went to Casa Sanchez on a Saturday between 11AM and Noon. We had been looking for…read morea good Mexican Restaurant. This one is very good. Conveniently located, ample parking with handicap spaces close to the front door. We entered into a large dining area. Typical motif with pretty colors and designs. We were seated almost immediately. I was really impressed with the booths with upholstered seats. Very comfortable. Our server was Citlali. Very pleasant. Took good care of us. Extra points for refilling my coffee several times. I ordered cheese enchiladas with carne asada and my daughter ordered carne asada. Did not take very long for Citlali to bring out hot plates piled with food. Yes, portions are generous. The steak slices were thick, tender and very tasty. The combination with beans, rice, and guacamole was delicioso. Prices won't break the bank. $40 for the two of us. That's about average among other restaurants that we have tried. This is our go to Mexican Restaurant in the future.

Service was friendly both times we visited. It's decorated like any Mexican restaurant, bold…read morecolors, adobe look walls, etc. it looks the part. Their margaritas are big. They messed up and didn't put salt on mine as I asked , but not a killer deal. Portions are typical of Mexican restaurants. Huge. Bigger than I should eat. I took some home and still had to take an antacid since I ate so much. The relleno burrito was good . I would say not great, but decent. Girlfriend had chicken taco salad, which was fine. Not a bad place to eat, but food just isn't the most flavorful Mexican I've had either.
