I was pleasantly surprised after eating at Whiskey Rose. I was visiting my family and they said they wanted to try this place out. I went on Yelp on the ride there - I wasn't too excited to try it out after reading their reviews...
I was definitely scared to bring my family here after I read about the waitresses - they were a little ditsy, but at least they were dressed appropriately for a family friendly bar.
I thought they had a decent beer selection, including some local brews from SanTan and Four Peaks.
I ended up trying the brisket with fries and mac & cheese. The brisket was actually really good - cooked perfectly - super tasty. I dug the mac & cheese too - with the crispy layer on top, exactly how I like it. My least favorite were the fries, but they were still pretty good - anything beer battered is good in my mind.
My family said the food they had was pretty good too. My little sister is a mac & cheese fanatic and loved it, so I'm sure they will be coming back sooner than me since I live in Scottsdale and it's a little far for me to come on a regular basis.
All in all, I was impressed with how everything was based on the previous reviews. Definitely give these guys a shot. We need more non-chains in this area.
