It was super packed and the service was great. They found us two seats at the bar, changed the TV to the game we wanted to watch and the birria quesadilla was so good. Margaritas were yummy too!

Totally a divey bar vibe but the food and drinks are so good! Everytime I come to Tempe, which is usually a few times a year, I make it a point to stop in here and get a few drinks and some snacks. (Wings are SO good) Love it and wouldn't change a thing!
