| - Gosh this place has gone down hill, and I mean WAAAAAAAAY down!!!
Now i use to live next to the one off Gilbert and went there 2-3 times a week. The staff knew us and it was still a dive-y establishment, before corporate made everyone remodel and redo the menu, so all locations were the same cookie cutter crap wth no uniqueness to any location. Stupid decision and to re-do the menu was an even more stupid decision!!!
An before all thus change; they still had NATIVE NACHOS, not these B.S. Buffalo Chicken Nachos. How can you get rid of the one thing that I loved the most and especially an item that was considered a Native speciality since It did have "NATIVE" in the title and a lil chicken speciality sign by it!!. I want the heaping Native Nachos, not these tiny lame nachos!
Now I'm a nacho connoisseur and those were by far my top choice nachos. Then they disappeared and I cried for 3 weeks straight. That whole location changed "effing corporate" leave your franchises alone. Got all bright and non dive like. Who wants that? Not me I love my dark, dive-y, home feeling, comfortable go to restaurant.
So off track....
But back to the location I'm reviewing today, the one off the 17.
First visit: I asked if they could still make the native nachos since I assume they still have all the ingredients, I mean it's pretty simple. The waitress stared blankly at me like I was asking for something foreign. I asked long she worked there and she responded a few months. But i would still imagine she would know about previous items on the menu since I'm sure I'm not the only one asking for them
She said we don't have that and can't make it! You would think at least someone knew what I was asking for that had worked there for a few years, but she didn't ask anyone just recommended shit buffalo nachos , and I was no not the same i tried that junk already.
I have had the Native Nachos almost every time I came to Native for 5 years when I lived 2 blocks away.
Beer selection at this location blows, what a joke. No craft beer......so coors it was. Only 4 or five watery cheap beers on draft. Ugh! The Gilbert and the 60 one had a squared bar in the middle with mostly craft beer (and some junk that snuck in). I think they had around 16 on tap at least.
Only thing good the 1st time was the drunk lady that bought me a shot because i was the only one listening to her problems. Free shot I'll take it! Waitress not so good.
Second time, pretty late, maybe an hour and a half before they closed.
Waiter was ok. Got a Coors.....sigh
Then I asked if I can get different sauces on my wings and he said just 2!?
Well you use to be able to get as many sauces on your wings that you wanted, they came out on individual little pizza like trays and you'd just have them all over your table, and it wasn't a one day thing it was whatever you wanted whenever. Now I get 2 choices of flavors? LAME. He said he could bring out the sauce separate for you to try, and then I was thinking if I can have the sauce, why not just put it on 2 of my 6 wings???
Well anyways use to be my favorite restaurant (mostly the gilbert and 60) location. Good times, just drinking, enjoying the good wings and NACHOS. Tradition to go after thanksgiving and on Christmas or christmas eve and just get wasted with my brother and husband. Good times.
Now I have really no reason to go back to any location. Probably won't unless someone else wants to go there, and I'll sit in disappointment.
Native you are a disappointment in my life, corporate well I could say so many colorful things about you but I won't.
