| - I have been working at the ASU campus for a little over a year and I've visited Dave's about 5 or 6 times. I was never very excited about their beer or food, but I love supporting local brewpubs, and I liked the atmosphere. Especially the patio and outdoor bar.
I have a pretty forgiving palate when it comes to craft beer, but Dave's just falls flat. No complexity of flavor in any of the beers, although I haven't tried the stout. They aren't bad, they just have nothing to stand out.
But the reason I decided to write this review is that I was tremendously disappointed during my last visit in early Feb. Since I work nearby my visits have often included lunch or happy hour food, and I thought they had a decent selection of affordable options. But they removed some of my go-to vegetarian items from the menu. When I expressed my disappointment, the bartender told me they took the veggie items off because they weren't selling as much. I can see why a restaurant might stop advertising a item that is not selling. But there are few replacement options when you start removing vegetarian choices. In addition, when I asked if they still made the veggie wrap at all, the bartender simply said no. I hate the thought of being high maintenance, so I didn't press the issue. But I imagine that it wouldn't have been that difficult to do.
Since the waitstaff was not interested in my satisfaction, and since the other food I have tried (bar food, typical salad) is just average and I prefer other beer, I won't be back.
