No need for another visit to fully embrace O.H.S.O. Paradise Valley. The patio is awesome. We visited just after 6:00 p.m. on a Monday. Walked right in. Picked up a free homemade dog treat at the counter for the pooch accompanying us and took a seat. 100 degrees outside? No worries. Giant fans and misters kept the patio quite comfortable. Will your puppy be lonely? You must be kidding. There were about ten other dogs on site this night. Will the kids behave? Not a problem. Ping pong... will occupy them. I can't imagine why you would want to go inside to the bar. The patio has such a fun and energetic vibe. Well, the bar might be a better choice for you if you hate dogs or hate kids or hate dogs and kids. For the rest of us? Embrace the chaos.
Oh yes. They do serve food. Our server was very helpful, sitting with us in the booth for a moment to review the menu and local beer options. I get the sense that they've figured out the service issues that several reviewers mentioned early on. We opted for one of the mac and cheese dishes and one of the hamburgers. Both were outstanding. Not at all the mediocre bar food I was expecting. And yes, the pup loved the free treat. He had to have seconds. The water bowl they gave him (without asking) came in handy as well.
We can't wait to come back. The outdoor game concept is pretty common these days, but the extent to which O.H.S.O. embraces our canine friends separates it from the pack.
