    I 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.

    Great 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

    Chicken quesadillas are ka-razy good! Humble but delicious on-tap selection. Servers are always nice.

    This 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.

    When 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.

    The 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.
