The staff is always amazing and welcoming. They go out of their way to make your every visit a great one! Excellent food and staff is such a pleasure. My favorite spot for food , drinks and service !
Michael MagriJanuary 14, 2017I come out here to Phoenix every year in December. And go there mostly to play the ponies at their OTB. Their food is always very good. I had the fish and chips and it was excellent fresh and flaky
Dive bar with a happy hour that can't be beat! Fried pickles makes them less than $4 (Cajun are the best), $2.50 domestics, and $3 cocktail specials.
JennNovember 19, 2011Great food, atmosphere, every person on the staff also has a great friendly attitude. Free pool on Mondays and surprisingly good hummus, amongst other happy hour specials
Daisy AlbertMarch 10, 2016The Owner is awesome here, the waiter and waitresses are fast and reliable, Highly motivated for excellence. I always over eat on the great food.
JSeptember 7, 2018The drinks and the staff were great! I look forward to my next visit. I'll play the ponies next time.
David CalderonDecember 5, 2014Chicken quesadillas are ka-razy good! Humble but delicious on-tap selection. Servers are always nice.
Edmund HubbardFebruary 16, 2013This place is awesome. It is laid back place where they serve good food and it is a off track betting place if you want to make some money.
The fried pickles are amazing. Get them Cajun style. Trust me. Love coming here after work. Jason is pretty much the coolest bartender ever.
SEO MommaFebruary 15, 2012One of my fave places in Phoenix, the wings are fab and my husband loves the calamari. the beer's cold and hey, the staff are not bad either! :)
Danielle BauchleApril 28, 2012I'm from Buffalo and I have to say these wings were pretty close.....definitely get the Armadillo Gold sauce! Sooooooo good!- Megan McconvilleJuly 6, 2012By far the BEST wings in Phoenix!!! They have 2 signature sauces! Dillo gold and honey hot!!
The Most Interesting Man in the WorldMay 9, 2014When I created the Armadillo Diet plan, people were losing an average of 17 pounds a week. Mainly because no one wanted to eat an armadillo.
I second the recommendation on the stroganoff (thanks - that's why I tried). The calamari is also excellent and half price from 4-7PM.
Try the fried pickles. I was sceptical at first, but they are awesome!
Eric BelmarJune 3, 2016Drinks are very reasonable, however be mindful of happy hour cut off and check your bill.
I have to say that I come back time and again for the wings! I can also highly raate the fish and chips - yummy;- Rox GMarch 15, 2015Philly Chicken, extra cheese and loaded mashed potatoes! Oh, and a Dirty Shirley!
- bobbie a.December 20, 2010DO try the Eclectic Mac & Cheese.... really good, & the pasta was perfectly al dente :)
try the Honey hot chicken wings! you'd keep coming back for that everytime..
Come during the day and sit at Carries bar she rocks
Natasha BoydSeptember 4, 2012The food is delicious but the service (at least wait staff, not sure about bartenders) is horrible. If just getting food, save yourself the trouble and get take out.
Fried cheese is amazing! Best ever! Ask for jimmy or harry!

"Try the perfect margarita! Awesome cocktail! I'm a huge fan of the hot wings as well! By the way, if you have a sweet tooth, get the triple chocolate meltdown."

"Patio is awesome and dog friendly. The Mac and Cheese balls are a MUST get menu item. The Creme brûlée is ok- I'd say try the other desserts first and that's coming from a huge Creme brûlée fan."

"Amazing location and view downtown (Phoenix). Festive and fun atmosphere. Food is just ok however the wings and salads are actually pretty good."
